A/N : Each dream is another past life time for the two. Details of why they are dreaming this, and what it means will come clear later, in this story. Who is after Hunter, and has effected their happiness each time, will also be revealed.

Tori watched the two men line up across the field from each other. Each in their armour, and unrecognizable, except for the blue handkerchief hanging from Hunters lance. Her cousin put his hand on her arm and got her attention.

"So little cousin, you gave your favor to that Hunter. Is he your choice?"

"He is a good man. He rescued me from Marsden last night." Her cousin looked out at the field and then back at her.

"Marsden is not the man I would want for you. Lets hope he doesn't win. Who wins you, wins land and estate. It belonged to your mother, and goes to your husband. I hope for your sake that your chosen wins."

"You care?"

"Yes, I do. I only want you settled and safe. I had thought that Sir Dustin would win. But I do believe that Sir Hunter will do so." Tori smiled at her cousin, glad that he actually cared some for her. She turned her attention back to the field.

The two men raced their war chargers at each other, the powerful horses came racing, teeth bared, and lanced crashed against armour. Hunter and Marsden were knocked from their mounts. Both drew their swords, and rushed each other. Tori held her breath.

Hunter slashed at Marsden, with a downward stroke. As the other man tried to run him through. He dodged to one side and swung his blade, catching the other man between links in his armour, digging into his back. Marsden grabbed his back, and turned and swung at Hunter, which was blocked. Hunter then hit him in the throat, and blood flowed down the metal as Marsden fell to the ground. His attendants rushed to him. Hunter turned and walked over to the family box, he bowed.

"You have won todays events, and you have won a prize I hope you will cherish.You have won the hand of my fair cousin, and her estates." Hunter was surprised, he hadn't known of that. A bonus. "There will be a wedding this evening." Tori's eyes met his.

H/T ....................................................T/H

Tori walked across the room slowly in her maroon gown. Her cousin walked beside her as her hand shook slightly. Looking to the front of the room she saw the priest and Hunter waiting there, in dark blue. He was smiling at her, and their eyes locked.

They stopped and her cousin gave her hand to Hunter. Who took her small hand in his, and he whispered into her ear. She smiled up at him and she felt some of the nervousness vanish. The priest began to speak in Latin, and she heard none of it. All she heard was angels singing, and her mind singing that she was in love with Hunter.

Hunter looked at his bride, and his heart filled with love. He could now admit he loved the girl. Couldn't imagine life without her, and he looked forward to being her husband. He repeated his vows as he stood there, and listened to her repeat hers. When the priest said he could kiss his bride. He took her into his arms, and his lips touched hers for the first time. Nothing could have been sweeter than that kiss.

Eyes watched from the gallery above, filled with malice and jealousy. No, you will not be happy. You have taken what I want. But you shall not have it either. No one noticed someone slipping out.

H/T ..........................................................T/H

Tori was in the arms of her husband, and morning light was just beginning to light the room with its rosy light. Hunter pulled her closer enjoying the feel of her in his strong arms. "Good morning, my bride, are you alright?" She saw the look of concern in his beautiful eyes.

"Yes, my husband. I am fine. I am so glad you won me. I could not ask for better." He smiled down at her, and kissed her. He saw the light coming in the window.

"Where did the night go? Someone has stolen it from us."

"It has fled, but will return again soon. We have not slept and now it is time to get up and leave for our new home." Hunter kissed her again, then reluctantly turned over and grabbed his pants.

"Get ready my love, I am anxious to see our new home." He heard the covers rustling behind him, as he yawned. It was when he noticed the wine canister and cups, sitting on the table and some fruit and bread and cheese. Hunter smiled, and went over to it, just in his pants and boots. Tori in his kirtle she walked over and joined him. He gave her a one armed hug, and she reached up and ran one hand over his well muscled chest.

"I love you Hunter."

"I love you to my sweet." He reached out and plucked a grape and offered it to her. She took it from his fingers lightly nipping his fingers. She smiled and fed him one. Hunter the poured them cups of wine, and gave her one. They both drank, the burning liquid. Then began to fed each other pieces of fruit. Hunter took a piece of orange into his lips, and offered her half. She leaned in close and bit off half, then kissed him.

It was then that the pain hit, burning through her stomach. It felt like someone had stabbed her, she grabbed at Hunter and saw that he too was suffering. She tried to cry out but couldn't. She fell and Hunter landed beside her. Their hands sought and found each other, and held tightly. As raspy breathing grew silent.

H/T .......................................... T/H

Hunter woke up and took a deep breath, and noticed Tori leaning on him. She woke with a start and looked at him. "Hunter?"

"Tori, it's alright it not real."

"What is that in your hand?"

Whaa?" Hunter looked into his hand and there was a blue handkerchief, hers. On the floor was another part of a medallion.

The doorbell rang, and both looked towards it like it was the enemy. Hunter got up and went over to answer the door. Opening it he saw it was Dustin. Dustin didn't look surprised at all to see Hunter answer Tori's door at six a.m.

"Hey Tori, don't want to be late today. Thought I would come early, have you had breakfast yet?"

"Well come on it, Dustin." Hunter said as he glanced at Tori.

"No we haven't eaten yet Dustin."

"Dudes, you don't look like you slept well."

"We didn't, and don't even go there Dustin. We didn't do anything."

"Well I don't have a problem with you two getting together. You make a cute couple you know. As long as Hunter doesn't hurt you."

"I am not going to do that bro. Never."

"What is going on?" The two blondes looked at each other and then explained everything to Dustin. Who sat there listening as they ate breakfast.

"Hey sweet dudes. I mean wow, how come I never have those dreams? I know what is going on." He had a serious look on his face, as he glanced from one to the other.

"Well, tell us." Said Hunter.

"I think you are seeing past lives you two lived. That you are star crossed lovers. That someone always got in the way of you being together. These dreams are trying to point it out to you. Your past, and warning you of the future. Must stop that person from doing it again. You belong together. That is so cool, man you are so lucky." The other two who sat at the table just looked at each other. Of all the people to figure it out, it would be Dustin.

"Thanks, Dustin. Any ideas who this person is? That person probably isn't in our time now."

"Yeah they are, they are here to stop you again. I want to help." Tori gave him a hug, and Hunter smacked him on the head lightly.

"We can use all the help we can get."
