Chapter Three, Perfect Lips

By: Vedalynne

WOO HOO!! I feel SOO loved right about now. Most of my reviews have all been encouraging and so far no flames, so you know what that means?? I'll spoil those looking forward to reading this, by getting this chapter posted within a few days of the last one, so... Anywho, my many thanks to Warrior of Tortall for such a positive review it really boosted my self-esteem. I'm really glad you liked it. Tell me what you think about this chapter.

Oh! And I'm sorry the story is going so slow right now, I got a role in the school play and now I'm busy with T.V. stuff, so don't hurt me if it feels really slow, k?

Alrighty lets start cooking!! ::Emeril impression:: BAM!!

"An ill person, wishing to speak to a healer." Adi said trying to remain calm. Her patience was stretched thin, and she had no time whatsoever to just stand around. "And if u do not let me see the healer by the name of Zelina you to shall soon be ill."

Adi was really starting to consider murder of the mystery man blocking her path when she broke down and used more magic. She opened her minds eye which allowed her to see a complete aerial view of the second level of the healer's home and workplace. She was Zelina sitting in a chair in the upstairs parlor. Adi immediately noticed movement coming from the cool headed healer. She focused in on Zelina and saw what worried her the most. Zelina, the calm "don't worry everything will fine" healer was tapping her foot and wringing her hands. "Funny," Adi told her mentally, "I've only seen you tap your foot when your mother was staying with you." She watched as Zelina jumped up and looked around the room franticly. "Relax! Ze, it's Adi, can you come down so we can talk?"

Zelina relaxed and Adi watch her move to the upstairs hallway. "Funny," Zelina responded mentally, "last time you said talk that way, I almost got a bloody lip." Adi didn't bother retorting, besides, the only thing she wanted to say right now included naughty words. Adi heard Zelina come down the stairs and speak with the annoying jerk that had caused her to waste time AND magic. "But she can help, she has influence." was the only thing Adi heard from the conversation. Seconds later, Zelina came through the doorway tugging on a hand that was connected to a body that wore a violet vest.

Adi sighed in desperation, " Not another one! Zelina, what the hell is going on?!"

Zelina shot her the shut up and behave look, " This is Allen Axmen. He's a member of the Violets, and he's getting out as of today. And why didn't you go to the stairs? You know your way around."

"Look Zelina, I don't care if he's the king! All I want to know is what do I do about these?!" She exclaimed as she dropped the vest and it's contents on the floor in front of her. "Who poisoned them, and how can I get an antidote for the poison?" Zelina bent down and gingerly picked up one of the daggers by its hilt. " And you of all people know I hate surprises a wasn't about to walk into one!"

"The poison isn't meant to kill, it's only purpose is to make the victim weaker then a newborn kitten." The Violet said fighting to keep his emotions under control. That was the first real time she had really looked at him, and when she did she was pleasantly surprised by what she saw. Onyx black hair framing a creamy white face and large deep violet eyes. His nose was almost perfect besides the signs that it had been broken more then once. And last but CERTINLY not least, his lips. They were the most perfect pair of lips Adi had ever seen, not too full, but defiantly not too thin! Wait, where have I thought that before? Adi was about to dismiss it and move on when it hit her like a ton of bricks.

I know, I know! I did it again! Kind of a crappy ending but I love cliffys and right now my brain is starting to hurt.... So, how many made the connection? I'll dedicate this story to the first review that I see that correctly figures out what I'm getting at.
