The next morning.
Robin felt the first rays of morning and woke up; she almost panicked, but then remembered the last two days. She looked around for Amon, but he wasn't in the room. There was a knock on the door and she put on her shift and answered it. It was a young serving girl.
"Milady, your companion is down stairs and asked me to tell you it is almost time to leave." The girl said.
"Of course, would you tell him I shall be down there very shortly. Thank you." Robin said and got dressed. She put on her clothes and made sure her two daggers were secure before leaving the room with her belongings. She went down to the common room; it was empty save Amon and another man. Robin walked over to Amon and sat next to him, the same girl severed Robin some warm porridge and left. Robin ate her meal in silence and when she was finished she and Amon went to the stable. Two stable boys came out with Amon's black stallion and a white mare.
"Robin you are to ride the white mare, I shall ride my horse." Amon said, paid the stable boys some coins and the two raced out of the stable yard. Minutes after they had left two monks came. They asked about Robin and set out a while later after the two. Robin enjoyed riding the mare, she even thought of giving it a name. She looked over at Amon who rode his horse very well. Amon was in thought, thinking of what he should do when they came to Vatican City.
"Amon, do you hear that?" Robin asked.
Amon snapped out of his trance and heard the sound of hoof beats coming fast. Amon looked and saw about a half a mile away, two monks were following them.
"They're Monk George and Andrei. If they catch me, I'll be taken back to marry someone I choose not to." Robin said, she made her horse go faster, Amon made his own horse go faster as well. They rode hard, escaping the two men on horse back.
Robin and Amon came upon a medium size town and found an Inn. Amon was able to get them separate, but adjoining rooms. There was a locked door that connected Amon and Robin's room. Robin was able to get another hot bath, which pleased her a lot, while Amon took a bath of his own. The two monks found the Inn they were staying at and got a room. When Amon finished his bath he went into the common room. When he got down there, he instantly noticed the two men from earlier that day. He waited for Robin to come down; she did ten minutes after him. She had her hair down; Amon thought she looked nicer with her hair down. She sat down next to him and smiled.
Mean While at the Royal Palace.
Yurika stood next to Miho as she cried out as she pushed. Miho was in labor, Nagira was out cold in a chair in the hall, Raven had punched him in the gut so he would be quite. With him was half the court; however the midwife was being brought from the village. So Raven took her place. Along with Yurika and Raven were Miho's close attendants.
"Alright Miho, just take deep even breaths. You're doing fine, just keep breathing. Marishka, I need some warm blankets and warm water, now!" Raven yelled to the young girl by the door.
"Yes milady." She said and ran out the door, she had one of the guards go to the kitchens to have some heated water brought out.
"Miho, there's the head, just one more big push and you'll have yourself a new babe!" Raven said. Miho was tired; she had been doing this for a day now.
"Raven, I'm tired, I can't keep doing this." Miho said, she was drenched in sweat.
"Miho, you are a strong woman you can do this, we all believe you can, now push DAMIT!" Raven shouted and Miho pushed again.
After two more pushes, the baby was born. Miho breathed easy now, the guard and Marishka had come back, and Sister Mary started to clean the baby. Then the after birth was expelled and Miho was cleaned up.
"Raven, what is it?" Miho asked. She sat up when Raven brought over the new born.
"Congratulations, Miho you have a son. A strong and good looking one at that." Raven said handing her the baby. One of the hand maidens went out and brought Nagira in.
"Congratulations, you have a son." Miho said, she smiled at her husband. Nagira sat next to his wife and held his first son.
"He's handsome. What should we call him my dear?" Nagira said, kissing his wife's lips, the attendants left the two, while Raven and Yurika cleaned up the area.
"Kunji. That would be a nice name." Miho said.
Raven and Yurika left, they went into the hall and announced a son and then went to their partners. Yurika kissed her husband on the lips as they hugged. Micheal kissed Raven on the cheek and they walked to the garden area.
"So he has a son, that is good. Do you feel okay?" Micheal asked as he put his arm around her shoulders.
"Yes I'm fine, but you owe me a kiss." She said slyly.
"Oh and why is that?" Micheal asked, knowing what she meant.
"You made a bet with me on what Miho is having. You said girl and I said boy." She replied.
"Well, then I always pay my debts." He said and kissed her on the lips.
"Sister Raven!" Sister Mary said. The two stopped kissing and bowed their heads respectively.
"Raven you know you are forbidden to kiss or anything besides holding hands. Now come, it is time for prays." The old woman said pulling Raven by her wrist.
"See you later." Raven mouthed to Micheal and then followed Sister Mary. While they were in the new chapel, Raven called out to Robins' mind.
Robin sat erect, Amon notice and before he could ask what was wrong, a smiled appeared on her face. She shook her head and faced Amon.
"My sister has just told me, you have a new nephew. His name is Kunji, congratulations." Robin smiled. "Oh and your brother Syunji was out cold after she punched him in the gut."
"How do you know?" Amon asked quietly.
"It's not easy to explain, but sometimes, we can speak mind to mind, even though we are very far away. She told me that Sister Mary interrupted her and my soon to be brother in-law kissing and drag her to the chapel to pray to God, but my sister has long since given up the Catholic faith." Robin said with a smile.
"I wonder how my brother is taking it. Oh well, tell me can you control water like your sister?" Amon asked.
"No, I can control fire. What about you? Do you have any powers?" Robin asked innocently.
"No." he said coldly.
Robin was a little hurt that he said that coldly to her, she ate her meal in silence. They watched the performer in silence, then after they were threw, Robin left for bed. She sat on her bed, brushing her hair. She was deep in thought; she did not realize that someone had knocked on her door until Amon put a hand on her shoulder. Robin jumped and had her dagger unsheathed and had it pointed at his heart.
"Amon? Amon what are you doing in my room?" Robin asked surprised, but thankful she had her shift and under dress on.
"I want you to know our followers have caught up to us. I believe you should be ready incase they decide to come in. Good night Robin." Amon said and turned to leave.
"Thank you again Amon. I don't know how I could get threw this with out you. Pleasant dreams Amon." Robin said. He nodded and left her to herself. She finished brushing her hair and prayed to the Goddesses Diana, Isis, Hera and any other Goddess out there to protect her. She slept and had her dagger under her pillow. Around midnight, she heard the door creak. She had her dagger ready; she would stab them before they could abuse her again. However, a hand came over to her mouth and when she was about to stab the person a hand gripped her wrist.
'No not again! No not like the last time. Raven's not here to save me this time!' Robin screamed in her mind.
Well what do you think? Love it? Hate it? tell me i really would like to know. thanks for reading this. TTW
