Alanna looked into the mirror. She had never looked so fine. Though oversized, the gold under tunic and red over tunic gave her the courage to do something she never could have done in her old clothes. She opened her door.
Her door was right next to Alex's, and the two exited at the same time. Their men stood beaming proudly. They hugged, and then Coram and Rupert went into Alanna's room, where Corem was residing.

"So tell me friend, how have fraternal twins turned identical? Or was Alanna only a figment of my imagination?"
Coram sat on his bed. "She wanted to be a knight. I wasn't going to be the one to stop her. Her brother's fair useless, and she has the stuff. She'll do fine."
"Well, I think they both will." Rupert said, laughing. "My Alex isn't who he seems either. I've raised Alexia since her mother died when she was a baby. Her father thinks she's just run off, but he doesn't really care. They'll be ok."
******************
Done.
What, Willow?
Loneliness is no longer an issue.
Giles was always a problem solver. Never could seem to keep a secret from him.
I'm glad you thought to send him to Buffy. They need to be together.
Well, go me! I made wil-low hap-py! *do-de-dodo*
ENOUGH! Watch.

Alexia looked over at Alan. "You ready for this? They were about to come upon the large group of pages.
"Ready as I'll ever be." Said Alan nervously.
"Let's knock 'em dead."
As they came closer they could here whispering. 'new boys in the palace'
"Yeah, were new, so what." Alexia stared murder at those who stared at her and Alan, and they quickly scampered off.
***Authors note: ok, I haven't had the books for this thing, (yes, I have the duke's speech memorized, label me a geek) so don't trash on me for it, please?***
"And who do we have here? New pages? Or a couple country goathards son's who think that they're nobles."
Alexia turned to look at him. "I was told that we were supposed to be learning manners here. Whoever told me that must have been mistaken."
"You are not a page until I say you are a page. Until ten you will address me as Lord Rolon. If I say you are peasants sons you will say yes, Lord Rolon."
Alan turned around then. "I'd sooner kiss a pig. Maybe that's what you've been doing, kissing pigs, or being kissed." Rolon struck him, and Alexia tackled Rolon. Rolon threw Alan across the room, and Alexia ran over to see if he was ok.
"What is the meaning of this?" The boys all stopped and bowed. "Who started this?"
"Your highness, they did. They came up to me and insulted me in a way that no noble insults another-"
"Did I ask you, Marvel? If I'm not mistaken, I told you to never speak to me.
"Who started this?" No one answered him. Sammual? (A/N: couldn't remember name!!)
"The new boys were just standing there, Jonathan, and then Ralon came up to them and calling them peasants sons and saying that they he'd to do everything he said. Then the blonde boy said that he thought we were supposed to be learning manners here, and the redhead said he'd sooner kiss a pig. Then he said maybe that's what Ralon had been doing, kissing pigs. Or maybe being kissed." The boys giggled. Alex thought back, Ralon's actions had been bad, but theirs hadn't been much better.
"And what about you, Firehair?"
"That's Prince Jonathan, lad."

AUTHORS NOTE: Ok, if you haven't read the books it's a cliff hanger. I'm leaving it here and not responding to reviews until next chapter(I still worship them and their creators, and I will respond) I do have one question though.
Should Francis of Nod be Oz? For those of you who read the book, I'm not going to change what happens to him, but their characters mesh best. Is the sacrifice worth it?
Also, I'm completely open to advice about which characters should mesh. Buffy characters will come further out of their confines soon.
