He then pulled her away from George as he held her close and whispered the horrific words in her ears
"We're getting married now" Those words seemed to ring forever in her ears as her heart sank and her hopes dropped. She was unable to speak as she just stared at him.
"A-a-lan-na d-don't" George rasped as Nicholas kicked him hard in the stomach.
"N-now?' her question came in a soft whisper as the idea was vanished from her mind.
"Why do you think you are dressed like this?' Nicholas asked as he dragged her out of the dungeon. They passed the many corridors before they came towards a large door and already Alanna could hear many people talking and laughing behind the door. Nicholas pushed the door opened as he flung her inside. Her heart raced as she scanned around the large room, which was beautifully decorated with wedding finery. Everyone stared at her from their tables as Nicholas grinned.
"My bride had arrived!" he announced, "She is the beautiful Alanna Trebond!"
They cheered as he took her hands and half led and half dragged her towards the priest that stood in the middle. Her eyes locked with two familiar men that were sitting on a nearby table and hope surged through her again. In the crowd were Jonathan and Raoul, both of them were disguised as women and she bit her lips to keep from laughing. She was very sure it was them; she could never miss Jonathan's sapphire eyes even through the heavy face paint and the long yellow gown, Jonathan even looked better than some woman in the room. Raoul's hazel gown was threatening to rip open due to his muscular body. He was wearing a long blonde wig and she had to admit he looked hideous as a woman. The priest began to speak the vow towards the marriage as Jonathan and Raoul pretended to sneeze and cough.
How did they get in here? Alanna wondered in amazement.
"For those whom object in the marriage speak now or forever hold your breath," the priest said clearly. (A/n was that right or was it "forever hold you peace"? Lolz)
"I OBJECT!" Raoul said in a high-pitched voice that nearly made Alanna burst out laughing.
"I OBJECT TOO" Jonathan roared as everyone stared at the two of them. They made their way towards the front as Raoul tripped over his own gown and fell flat onto the gown and a rock melon rolled onto the ground.
"Oh heheh where did that come from?" Raoul giggled in an awful female voice.
" SEIZE…" Nicholas began as Jonathan interrupted him by fluttering his fan.
"How dare you speak so loudly to my charming sister?" Jonathan said as he helped Raoul top his feet. Raoul shoved the rock melon back into place.
"Then why do you object my lovely ladies?" Nicholas asked in a low voice as his kept the anger from his voice.
"Because…I dislike you!" Jonathan whispered as he drew his dagger that was hidden under his long sleeve and pointed it at Nicholas's neck.
"Go get George I can handle it" Jonathan bellowed as the whole room erupted with rage.
"SILENCE! OR I'LL CUT HIS NECK!" Jonathan yelled as his eyes told the truth. He pressed the dagger onto Nicholas's neck as blood trickled down and stained his dagger. Raoul and Alanna ran out of the hall as she led him towards the dungeon.
Jonathan watched them leave then he took the wig off his head and unbuttoned his bodice to show the medal of Tortallan in which could only be held by the King himself.
"King Jonathan?" was whispered throughout the whole room as every man and women dropped to their knees and bow at their King.
"You have guts to kidnap my champion" Jonathan whispered angrily as Nicholas laughed.
"Or is she your whore as well?"
Jonathan hit him hard across the face as he held the man from falling.
"How dare you speak to me like that you worthless dog?" Jonathan whispered fiercely. Again Nicholas laughed as his body glowed red.
"Magic" Jonathan whispered in disgust as the whole room erupted with his blinding light and when the light subsided he was gone as a window was opened.
"Bastard" Jonathan whispered as a man that was dressed in a dark black coat caught his gaze. His eyes were dark and he was smiling.
"Roger" Jonathan whispered as Roger too disappeared.
"Are you alright?" Raoul asked as he caught Alanna up into his embrace and check her for any injuries.
"Yes and thank you" Alanna replied quickly as she motioned for Raoul to put her down, "But George needs us". Raoul nodded in agreement as they stopped before the heavily bolted door.
"I just need a sec," Raoul whispered as he took a pin from his hair and began to work on the lock. Alanna pulled the wig from his hair and took the two-rock melon from his shirt and held onto them.
"A little trick I learnt from George" Raoul said with a smile as the door swung open.
"What-the?" The guard yelled in shock as Alanna slammed one rock melon onto his head and Raoul gave him a hard punch across the face. Alanna opened the wooden brown door and ran inside as she called George's name over and over again. All the cells were empty as she ran towards the last one where fresh blood stained the stoned floor. There was a parchment on the floor, which read, "You have made the wrong choice my love…the life of the man named George depends on you…you know what to do…I'll be waiting…" She screamed in agony as she threw the parchment away and clutched her heart as tears flowed down her tears. Strong arms were wrapped around her as Raoul held her close to him murmuring-comforting words as she wept in his arms.
"You still want her?" asked Roger as the two of them made their way south from the forest.
"Yes…" Nicholas admitted as he glanced at George whom laid unconscious at the back of his horse.
"I can't believe she survived that deadly blow…" Roger muttered.
"What was that?" Nicholas asked as Roger glanced at him.
"I said I'll help you" Roger lied as he smiled.
She won't be so lucky the second time Roger thought as he grinned as urged his mount into a faster pace. I'll destroy her then I'll destroy Jonathan then I'll be King of Tortall…
We'll update very very very soon! Thx for all the reviews!
Love: Virginia and Clara
