I'm just saying I do not want to put chapters together, because they end where I want them to, and I don't want that to change.

So… yeah…

Chapter 11

To Market, To Market…

"Marina…" I opened an eye,

"What is it Van?" I yawned and stretched,

"We're going into town…" he said, I raised an eyebrow

"ME…go into town?" I looked at him sceptically.

"Yes, but you will go to Millerna first, she'll dress you like a lady, so you will not be thought of as the Mystic Moon girl" he said.

"Oh…ok… BUT I am not wearing any other shoes, other than my boots!" I stated, he sighed,

"Ok…"

I was now dressed in a blue dress, it had no sleeves, and was sort of like a prom dress, it had a slight train behind me,

it was the most beautiful silken material I had ever felt, I was glad Van had let me wear my sword underneath, just in case…

But it didn't make me feel any better,,, these clothes made me feel… vulnerable…

We walked around the market, than I heard it, the high pitched scream of a woman, I growled, before my companions knew what happened,

 I had melded into the shadows, I ran through the shadows, silent as the grave to where the screams came from,

the woman had been silenced from the pressure points, I sighed, it seemed there was nothing I could do for her…

Suddenly, I felt a tight grip around my waist I turned my head, quite shocked,

"You can see me?" I whispered,

"I know how to be stealthy to, my dear lady…" I saw he had white hair, and blood red eyes,

"VAN!" I yelled, I pulled the boy and myself out of the shadows; I quickly forced his arms off me, and flipped him to the floor,

"Marina!" I heard Van yell,

"I'm over here!" I yelled back to him, I looked to the boy, well actually, a young man, 

he got up wiping some blood dripping from his mouth, he looked like he was about to pull his sword out and attack,

"Dilandau, that is enough!"  a man in a black cloak came out of the shadows,

"But Lord Folken…" Dilandau groaned,

"That, is enough," the cloaked man turned from Dilandau to me,

"Greetings to you, I am Folken, I am sorry Dilandau…startled you…" I noted the strange tear drop like mark that was on his left cheek,

so I would recognise him if we met again… he seemed to give off a… confused aura…

"It, is fine," I smiled, "I just, do hope you will prevent such atrocities from happening again." The man, Folken, nodded,

"I wish you well in the coming age, of Zaibach…Come Dilandau…" Dilandau came up to me, hugging me quite intimately as if we had been lovers,

"Don't worry, my dear…we will meet again…" he smirked and walked off, I growled.

"Someone please tell me that didn't happen…" I whispered, bitterly, as Van ran up, just in time to see Dilandau and Folken disappear in the distance.

"What happened?" Van asked, I shook my head,

"You, do not want to know…" I looked straight into his eyes, he nodded,

"I think…perhaps you are right…for now" he said,

"Come on, we have what we need."

I know… it sucks, big time… but, hey that's life… and it's pretty decent for a 13 year old to have written, yes? REVIEW!!!!
