that this wasn't as fast. Lots of stuff happens
I wanna say a HUGE THANK U 2 Treanz-Alyce and Psycho Lioness 13 (for writing a review to my 1st chapter and a very happy and long review (Treanz- Alyce) 2 my second. Please follow in her footsteps.) Also, Flashy fire bird22 was incredible and my best friend for writing a fantastic review and singer-of -all- songs, Psycho Lioness13,Beccs, Poison Moon, Chronicles Bailey rox as well please follow in these incredible peoples footsteps and read and review. I'm working my butt off 4 u.
Next, the boring but mandatory disclaimer: I am just a little sad fanfic writer. I have nothing that corresponds to Tamora Peirce's very incredible work. I cower in my small dark computer writing little meager stories that have nothing on Tamora Peirce's work. Please don't sue me.
Ok. On w/ the story.
RECAP OF LAST BIT OF LAST CHAPTER "See? Nothing is there Kel." Neal said. Kel reached around Neal's torso and felt his back, tracing the scabs of countless whip marks. Damn. I thought I had gotten rid of those. I guess not. While Neal was engrossed in his thoughts, he did not notice Kel flipping him over until his face met the cold, hard floor and he felt her legs straddle his knees. Coming back from his self-accusatory thoughts, he flipped himself over until his back was hidden and he fully faced Kel. She leaned closer to give him a hug. Feeling his warm arms surround her, she felt at peace with the world for a few seconds. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ BACK 2 THIS CHAPPIE
Unfortunately it was in this position that the guards found Kel and Neal when they came to take Neal away. It did nothing to improve their 'high" respect of Kel and made several unchaste remarks about remembering to ask Neal how she was during the torture. As Neal was dragged off, he shot a warning glance to Kel, as if to impress upon her how important it was not to attack the guards.
She sat down in a huff; neither noticing the freezing cold floor around the handcuff marks that still "graced" her wrists.
Absently she took up a stone and began to scrape at the stone floor. In doing so, she realized that just under the layer of grimy filth and wood shavings, there lay white marks on the floor. After cleaning thee entire area, Kel lay on her stomach and studied her findings, only to discover that they seemed to form a map of the castle. Soon, she found her dungeon and memorized the passage from there to the exit of the castle.
Kel was just re-covering the diagram when Neal was pushed roughly to the floor by the guards and the door clanged with a harsh finality. As he lay there panting for breath, Kel ran over to him and poured her strength into him so he could heal himself. When he had caught his breath, Neal began to glow eerily and Kel watched as the large whip- gashes healed slowly.
As soon as Kel was assured of Neal's health and the guard's leave (A/N does his make any sense?) she hurried Neal to the place she had so recently covered. Neal studied the map and, just as she had done not 20 minutes ago, began to memorize the path from the dungeons to the castle walls. They sat together for some time, discussing plans of escape and what to do if one of them was caught and slowly fell asleep.
The next morning Kel was woken as the sun rose by a sharp tapping on the stone next to her head. She looked up, startled and found herself in contact with a man's chest. Blushing from the proximity, Kel pushed herself from Neal and looked around, bleary eyed for the source of the noise. Near her body, an enormous sparrow was patiently eyeing Neal's sleeping form. As Kel rose, the sparrow looked up and its head morphed into that of the Wild mage Diane. "Hello Kel." The face said. "Diane!" Kel whispered breathlessly, "How did you know where we were?" "No time for explanations now. She said, eyeing Neal. "You'd better wake up your lover over there so he can hear he plan" Kel flushed angrily "He is not my lover!" she whispered fiercely. "Dom will be glad to hear that." Diane said as Kel roused the sleepy Neal. "What do you mean by that?" Kel asked, astonished. "Never mind. I'm sure he will tell you" Diane answered mysteriously and began to relate that plan to Kel and Neal.
And here, my friends, I will go and allow you to joyfully review my latest work.

You don't know how nice it is to have a e-mail from some lovely person who has taken it upon themselves to review my meager attempts at fanfiction and makes my day. PLEASE make my day Thanx, SUPERDEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
