Author's note: Hello again! So chap 3 is revamped and chap 4 and 5 are here
as well. SWEEEET! Anyways, if you look at chapter 3 you'll see I took Tera
and Bridget's entrance out of it. After I got down re-doing 3 their opening
just seemed to be a sore thumb so I gave them their OWN chapter! Woo!! This
chap is just kind of weak and only here to move the story along but oh
man..Wait until you get to chap 5. A great fight between Nite and Vyse.
I'll talk more about that in my next note. So sit back and enjoy the
story!!!

"This place is far too undignified for someone of your stature, Milady." A tall woman with brown hair and blue eyes said to the young lady standing next to her. The woman lightly sighed and looked at her.
She seemed so innocent from a moment's glance. Bright blonde hair and sparkling green eyes. Her build was normal for a slightly tall, sixteen- year old. But it's when you see the look on her face that you know there's something deeper then just innocence. She was a girl who craved excitement, exploring and just being outside, away from her strenuous life. The woman sighed intently. Was must she always be the one to keep her in line?
"Oh, come now Bridget, this place is fine and better yet no one here will ever notice me." The young lady said back.
"Yes, indeed there are millions of girls from royalty around this place." Bridget said sarcastically.
"Yeah and I bet all of them have a witty bodyguard following them around too." She said back with a laugh.
Bridget twisted her face into a look of concern. "Well at least go find something to wear that is a little more low key, Milady." Bridget said, looking at the girl's fancy clothes.
"Fine I will but you better change too."
Bridget looked down at herself; she was still wearing her full, golden body armor.
"Very well then," Bridget calmly said, "let us stop in here, this looks like a good place." She added, looking inside the nearest clothing store.
"Ok but remember one thing." The young lady said to her bodyguard.
"What Milady?"
The girl smiled and pointed at her. "That. You have to call me by my real name now."
Bridget crossed her arms. "Very well then..." She stopped for a moment so she knew that she would say the right thing. "Tera." She finished, then walked into the store.
*** Tera followed her guardian into the store and looked at all the odds and ends lying around. Without a moments hesitation she walked over to a row of clothes to find something she liked. She noticed Bridget standing by the wall trying to blend in but having little success. Tera walked over to her and dragged her to the clothes rack.
"Now pick something." She commanded with a smile. Bridget hesitated and tried to walk away but Tera thought differently.
"Oh no you don't. If you won't pick something for yourself then I will." She said, with a bigger smile then before. Bridget sighed and ran her fingers through her hair. Tera laughed, picked something out of the rack, and handed it to her. Bridget groaned and went into one of the rooms behind her.
Tera grabbed something for herself from the pile and went into the room next to Bridget's to try it on. The outfit looked pretty nice, White shirt with beige pants, not too bad. Tera stepped out of the room and sat on a chair, she knew it would take Bridget twice as long to get dressed because of all that armor that she had to peel off.
Tera glanced out the window and saw a little boy running up to people and asking for something. She continued to watch and saw him trip on his feet and fall into some mud. It was around this time that she started to feel sorry for him. She ran out of the store and helped the boy to his feet.
"Are you ok?" She asked.
"Yeah I'm fine but I lost my money. It's in a little brown pouch, have you seen it?" The boy asked, with a tone of worry.
Tera shook her head and the boy sighed.
"Hey how about I get you a new pair of clothes so you don't have to wear these." Tera said to him, trying to cheer him up.
He quickly accepted her offer, shooting up off the ground and wiping the mud from his raggedy clothes.
"Oh, by the way, my names Ked. What's yours?"
"Tera. Nice to meet you Ked."
Ked beamed a smile. "It's a pleasure to meet you too, Tera!"
They walked back into the store and Ked started to run around, looking for the best outfit he could find. Tera knocked on Bridget's door.
"How are you doing in there?" She asked getting a loud grumble for a response. She laughed and looked around for Ked, she saw him sneak into one of the rooms with a handful of clothes.
Five minutes had passed since Ked went into the room and she still hadn't seen one glimpse of him, but she did see what Bridget had on. Bridget walked out, arms still crossed and asked what Tera thought of it. The outfit, if you could call it that, consisted of a large, bright pink shirt and very large blue pants. Tera held in the laugh that was aching to be let out But she couldn't hold it forever and hit the floor holding her sides, laughing her head off.
She stopped laughing for a short moment and looked at Bridget. You could really see all of her features since she didn't have her armor on. Her dark black hair fell in a straitened pattern. Her normally stern blue eyes were softened and warm. Her normal to-the-point expression was replaced by a lively smile. Tera grinned. For once Bridget looked less like a solder and more..Human. Bridget tried to hide her smile with an insulted frown and stomped back into the room.
Tera wiped a tear from her eye. She hadn't laughed like that in a long time. She sat back down and waited for Ked to come out. Suddenly he exploded out of the room.
"Ta da!" He screamed, twirling around so that Tera could get a good look at him. She was impressed with what he found. A decorated black shirt with black pants and a long, brightly decorated black cape with the initials 'B.M.' in bright gold letters on the back.
"B.M.? What does that stand for?"
"Black mage." Ked responded simply.
Black mage? This little boy was a Black mage? Tera thought that this might be a blessing in disguise.
"Hey Ked, how would you like to go on a little trip with me?"
Ked started to jump up and down. He explained to her that he had never taken a single step out of this place, let alone go on a trip somewhere.
"I gotta tell my grandpa first, though." He added, running out the door pulling Tera close behind.
