I have a lot of homework that I'm completely neglecting, so I think I'll
update.

~Chapter 7~
Kel shivered and wrapped her cloak around her more tightly. She was sitting out by the lake, again. Dom still hadn't returned, and she was getting worried.
After her "chat" with Neal, she'd gone and sent her sparrows out to look for Dom. She couldn't believe that she hadn't thought of it before.
Kel stretched out. The sun was coming out and it was getting warmer. She was just about to doze off when Pip-Squeak, the runt of the sparrow flock, came chirping and pecking at Kel.
"What is it? Did you find him?" She asked anxiously. He made the symbol for "yes."
Quickly sitting up, she grabbed her sword and jumped on Peachblossom's back. Pip-Squeak immediately took off, with a determined Kel riding behind him.

Looking around at her surroundings, Kel realized she had no idea where she was. Dismounting she started to look around.
Not watching where she was stepping, she almost tripped. Something let out a stifled groan. Kel slowly looked down, afraid of what she would see.
Dom laid there, a bloody gash in his chest. He was unconscious, and his pulse was very slow. Kel ripped her cloak into strips for bandages, and carefully bound his wounds.
"Go get help." She ordered the sparrows, which immediately flew off. She was just gathering him in her arms when someone stepped out from behind the trees.
"I don't think that's such a good idea, Kel."
It was Grant.
~Yes, I know that it was really short, but it was such a good cliffhanger that I couldn't help it! Review!~
