To be alone. (Rewritten version)

This is, as the title states, not my original fan fiction. As stated in my profile my computer got a virus and my fan fiction was well for lack of a better word, screwed. So I am rewriting it but it might not be exactly identical to the other one but I shall make do. It will still be in Priscilla and Erks pov and it will still start off one-sided Pris/Raven. However like I had said previously, it will change. It may end up Raven/ Lucius at the end or someone else; I have no clue as of yet. It is all how the reviewers react to the pairings. Well, without further ado, here is the first chapter of my rewritten fic!

Chapter 1:My Lord Brother

Priscillas pov.

My lord brother has returned to me! My escort and I were travelling into Laus when the Marquess son, Erik requested that I come to his castle. I refused of course, I had heard of other girls being taken by that man and politely declined. However, Erik would not take no for an answer and I had to send Erk, my escort to a nearby town to request assistance. When he did not return after a couple of days I assumed that the villagers from the other town would not help Erk and I. That is when the men and women of "Eliwoods Elite" arrived. They came in and defeated Marquess Laus son and once again made it safe for the citizens living in that region.

I soon met the Lady Lyndis of Caelin and her band of knights called "Lyndis Legion". The Lady Lyndis is a very nice woman I have heard and the stories are in fact true. She is a truly strong woman; I do quite admire her for that.

Soon after meeting Lady Lyndis we continue to Caelin Castle to rescue her grandfather who is still trapped inside. That is when I see him, My Lord brother. Raymond. I am so happy I can barely stay in the saddle of my mount. Mark, the tactician sees me fidgeting and asks why I am not paying attention to the battle. Mark is an easygoing man usually, but when it comes to battle he is truly terrifying! I tell him to order that no one approach the mercenary with red hair. Mark does not ask why it is that I request that but he allows me to ride up to Raymond.

"Brother! Raymond!" I cry. He winces slightly at my call. I do not know why. Have I done something wrong? Have I angered him?

"Priscilla…"

"Brother! I truly thought I would never see you again!" I say happily. I can barely contain my excitement. I am so very happy. Now, everything will be as it should be, with me at Raymond's side always.

"Priscilla. Do not remember that you have seen me here. I am no longer your brother."

"R-Raymond? Why? Why do you say such things? You are my brother. I cannot forget you," I reply. I can feel tears flooding my eyes and I look down so I will not embarrass myself.

Suddenly Lord Hector runs by. "Hey! What's your name!…Priscilla! Hurry up would you? It's a battle remember? I don't want you to get hurt because you're distracted…Mark told me to say that!"

The rough looking man rushes offwhich leaves me alone with Raymond again.

"What are you doing running around with the likes of…him? He's the one that's dangerous," Raymond says darkly.

"I have joined the Lord Eliwoods band of mercenaries. Lord Hector is one of the other nobles that are helping him find his father. He's really not-"

"…He is the one who…Very well Priscilla. I will join this group…even if it is only to get at that Ostian Lordling…" Raymond says almost menacingly.

"…Raymond…"

"My name is no longer Raymond. It is Raven now," he mutters. That was the end of our conversation. I had not seen My Lord brother in so long and now…he disliked me.

My Lord brother has returned to me, but I feel more lonely than ever.

Well, that's the first chapter rewritten. I know it is a bit different and there is actually dialogue as opposed to almost none in the original but I think it went well. Hmm don't know if I like it as much as the original…ah well. Cest la vie. As a result of some things not happening in this chapter that did in the original I guess that either, I will need to make the chapters longer or, the fan fiction will over all be longer. I wouldn't mind if the fic was longer it isn't like I dislike writing it so I will probably make it upwards to about 20 chapters maybe? Or close to it. Well, I will try. I will aim for around 15. Who knows? It might end up only ten or so… not sure. It all depends. Yes, well enough of my banter.

Matthew: Yes! Finally! Read and review please! Oh yes, and no flames! If you flame, she will ignore you and I will steal your posessions!
