Five Hours Later...
Neal knocked on the door impatiently on Kel's mother's door. It finally opened to his relief.
" Have you seen Kel?" he demanded, " She wasn't at lunch."
" Neal, you'd best leave." Ilane said gently.
" Why?" He snapped hotly.
" You don't know do you?"
" Know what?"
" You might want to hear this from your father."
" I don't care who I learn it from as long as I hear this damn news!" he snapped stubbornly
"Come inside," she beckoned. The young man followed her.
" I really hate to tell you this, Neal, but Dom is dead. I'm really sorry Neal." He stared at her for what seemed like forever before he snapped out of it, somewhat.
" I'm going to find Lady Alanna to talk to her," he said dazed.
" Kel?"
" Yes, who is it?"
" Alanna. Would you let me in?" She heard Kel's footsteps. Kel opened the door. The younger woman's eyes were red and swollen. He was right to have me come to talk to her, she thought.
" I guess. Come in." The stocky woman followed her in.
" So, I guess Neal sent you. But I'll be fine, really." Kel knew she was lying.
" Kel, did you know I had a brother?"
" No," she replied startled.
" Well. When Duke Rodger attacked at Jon's crowning Thom, my brother, died as well as Liam and Faithful. You see, first I was sad and thinking about them hurt. Then, I was just angry. I suspect that's going to be the order it happens for you too. But, do you mind me asking who, well, you know?"
" Sergeant Domiton of Masbolle." She whispered.
" So Kel how do you feel?"
" Sad. I feel like I want to crush whoever killed him." The first Lady Knight pulled the younger one into a hug.
" Thank you Lady Alanna."
" It's Alanna and it's dinner time you must be hungry."
At the Mess Hall...
The room fell somewhat silent when Kel walked in. Yuki rushed forward and showed her to where she was to sit. Yuki, Shinko and Kel, mainly Yuki and Shinko, though the few times they tried to get Kel to talk she only said a few words, talked in Yamani. The Yamani raised knight only stared out to space. Finally, they just gave up and they ate silently.
A few days before the next ball...
" For the hundredth time why can't you go as me? You know all about my life, you know a lot about weaponry, you look like me and I don't want to go." Kel told Lila, her maid, and a friend.
" Because the last time I did that the king, shall we say, exploded. Lisala says it's time for the last dress fitting." She added evily. Kel only groaned.
At the Ball...
" Sir Lady Keladry of Mindelan." He announced. She heard whispers. But she had long abandoned what people thought of her when Dom died. She met up with Neal. They talked.
" So, Kel have you chose who you are going to pick as a squire?"
" Shit! I forgot about that. Who are you choosing?"
" I don't know yet. I was thinking about choosing Alan, you know Alanna's son?"
" Of course I know that." She snapped.
" Ok just saying."
" My Lady, may I have this dance?" a man asked her.
" Not this one maybe in a little bit." She replied.
" You can't keep refusing you know?" Neal said. A few songs later another man asked her to dance.
" I'm sorry," Kel said. " But I was just about to dance with Nealen."
" Oh, but I suddenly don't feel like dancing," Neal said treacherously. " Why don't you take this dance?" He grinned evilly. Bastard, she thought. (A/n naught Kel. Naughty, naughty, naughty. Calling your best friend a bastard.)
I'm going to leave off there. Bye, *signs off* , * signs on* o yea, please r/r
