Thank you to all of my reviewers! You make me feel special!

I wanted to get this up yesterday, but I went out with some friends instead. Yet, here I am and here is another chapter. I tried to make this one longer...

Chapter 10-Flashbacks from the Hurtful Past

Natalie layed there, on the cold, hard ground. She had nothing to do and was very tired and sleepy. She was no longer hungry, the only thing she didn't miss was food. After four months in a cell, you forget about the outside world and your love for eating.

She was trying to sleep when someone opened a door. The crack brought in a bright light that killed Natalie's eyes. Natalie was worried at first of who it was, but when she heard the sweet voice call out to Guinevere, she knew who it was. Her Guardian Angel.

Fuliciana ran down the hallway quickly. Her husband had just gone down to the village to check on the people and see why they were running late with giving him their grains to trade.

When she got to the kitchens she grabbed some bread and water from the servants. She took a passage that lead to a single door. She went through it and looked at the worn down bodies in the cells. By the foul smell she would've thought that they were all dead, but she knew that three were still alive.

First she fed a little boy that went by the name Lucan. He was sent to the cells because he stood up to a guard when he was beating an elder man. The boy thanked her and she went to the next cell. There she found Guinevere.

"Is she still alive?" asked Guinevere attempting to point to a cell in the back. Fuliciana shrugged, yet she was worried too. Guinevere nodded and Fuliciana moved on.

When she got to the cell she looked inside. The girl was laying on the ground, eyes open. Fuliciana put the food in the cell the bars. The girl ate, but Fuliciana knew that she didn't enjoy the food.

The girls' eyes pierced Fuliciana's and she quickly looked away. The girl spoke, "My guardian angel, why do you look away? Do I frighten you so much?" asked the girl.

Fuliciana sent the girl a soft smile that was barely noticable. "I am only worried about the boy, but I have heard news." The girl swept her head towards Fuliciana, yet she still continued. "The knights at the wall are coming. They will save you, Guinevere, and the boy. Natalie, I will make sure theybtake you and all those innocent out of this place." Fuliciana reassured her. Natalie smiled and sent Fuliciana away. That night she couldn't sleep.

THOUGHTS/DREAM/FLASHBACK.

A little girl ran through a land of trees. She was painted blue and playing with a taller girl that wore a black cloak. They ran and ran into they came to green plains that never ended. Atleast it seemed like that.

The girls turned into blobs of shaking blue lights, still moving quickly on the trembling green plains. Natalie was one of them, the other was her mother.

THEN

Natalie stood there looking at the black sky. Tristan had his arms around her waist and was slowly kissing her neck.

THEN

Natalie was dressed as a saxon man standing up to the saon leader Cerdic when he tried to hurt soemone that was innocent.

Her life that night, revolved around those she loved and those she truly hated.

Tristan stood upon a hill with the other knights. He heard some sounds from the trees and looked over towards them. Suddenly a loud war cry came to his ears as blue figures ran out of the trees.

Tristan called out "Woads"and the knights gathered in dragon formation and rode towards the battle scene below. Tristan took out his bow and started to send arrows, up to three at a time, at woads that were killing romans and going after the other knights.

After running out of arrows he got off his horse and took out slight oriental sword. Woads started to surround him and he took each of them down one by one. Tristan looked dwon at his job well done. Some woads still layed there screaming in pain. He found this slightly amusing.

When he was done watching the hurt die he was quite pleased with himself. He did a pretty good job.

While Arthur talked to some romans about the bishop and the carriage, he listened into the conversation while cleaning off his sword. He heard Arthur order him to go scout so he stopped wiping the blood off his sword and mounted the horse. He nodded to the rest of the knights as he rode off.

While scouting he rode on a side rode and listened around. When he heard and saw nothing he headed back to where the knights were.

Later that day the group rode along side Hadrian's wall. Tristan heard Gawain talking about getting himself a wife when he gets back home. Was he, Tirstan, going to have a wife?

That brought his thought to Natalie. Was she dead or alive? Tristan thought about her for a bit. He noticed that he never really kissed her. Was he in love? No, he thought, never will he be in love with an enemy...especially a woad.

He was distracted from his train of thoguhts when he heard a screek from above. He looked up to see his hwk flying down to him. "where you been girl, where you've been?" he talked to the hawk as it landed on his outstrecthed arm.

Natalie heard nothing from the other cells that night. She wondered if she was the only one alive. Was she? That night she cried. The first time since she lost her mother and never saw her again...

FLASHBACK'

Natalie's mother stood by the entarnce of the cave that they lived in, looking down at the woods below them.

Natalie came up next to her. She was maybe about four or five, no older than 7. Her mother looked down at her. "If only you looked more like me.: said her mother in a low voice. Natalie looked at her confused.

:"Am I not beautiful like you mother?" asked the small Natalie. Her mother smiled. "My dearest Natalie, you are beautiful. Yet you resemble your father and his kin, not mine. My people are from the east. The people of the great green plains. The wonderful sea of green grass is where freedom lies...where my freedom lies, my child." explained her mother.

Natalie looked at her mother. The truth was the only resemblance between the two was the body and face shape. To Natalie her mother was so beautiul then, just liek she thought she was now. Her mother had long brown hair and dark brown colored eyes. Thinking of her mother's appearance, she noticed how much Lancelot resembled her mother. Could her and Lancelot actually be related. She was older than him by about six years. He was one of the younger knights, so it was possible. Yet, would her mother go and have another kid, or two counting Lance's sister, and forget about her? She didn't know the truth, yet she wanted to.

"Mother, where are you going?"asked Natalie as her mother headed out of their cave on a horse. "The river, stay here." her mother told her. That was the last thing she heard her mother say...stay here.

The she disappeared forever...or not...

The knights entered the fort and looked around for the girls. They weren't there.

Arthur handed his horse to Jols and ordered the knights to meet him in the round table room soon. Alone, Arthur walked into the room and was tackled by four girls. They took him to the ground as he looked at each of them curiously.

"What are you girls up to?" asked Arthur. They reminded him of his knights. The way they joked and played around with eachother. When he didn't get an answer he started trying to get up from the floor, which wasn't easy since he had four bodies holding him down.

Emilee soon answered, "We have a little suprise for the knights. So hush up about what we're going to tell you." The girls told him their plan...sort of.

Midway through telling Arthur the plan, the knights walked in/ Lancelot looked down, "What are you doing?" The girls looked dwon below them and saw that they still had Arthur pinned to the ground.

Lauren quickly made up an excuse. "Human sacrifice!" she screamed loudly. Gawain looked at her questioningly(sp?) "Are we suppose to believe that?"

When Lauren was about to answer Jols came in. "I'm going to let the visitor in, then the bishop." He looked to the floor and saw Arthur laying there. "Or maybe I should wait a minute or two."

Everyone popped up and sat in a seat. Emilee broke the awkward silence. "Since you brave knights are recieving your freedom, I brought a suprise. Kimmerlee would like us to rememeber Pelej, who was recently killed by woads some months ago," Everyone bowed there heads and she was about to continue when a hoded figure came in.

The figure truned towards Emilee and spoke. :You called for me Emilee." Emilee smiled. "Knights, this is Estel, who holds some information on affairs above the wall."

The guy did not lower his hood, but the knights tried to keep quiet while he spoke. "There have been attacks up north...from dangerous raiders. They have killed romans and Brits. I am oad, like my friends here, but our people ask you for help."

Emilee looked at Estel, "Help, when I talked to you earlier you said nothing about help."

Estel ignored her and kept talking. "We lost two of our woman warriors when we wnt to fight the raiders. They were our scouts and spies." Tristan looked at the hooded figure. "We must find who exactly?" asked Tristan. Emilee looked at him. "Ho do you know he wanted us to look for someone?" she asked.

Estel kept talking though. "They didn't fight in the battle though, they were our captains, but disappeared before we reached the raiders. Their names were Guinevere and Natalie. We believe they were taken by romans, That is what the trackers show."

Gawain started to choke on what he was eating, Galahad's head fell into the food on the plate in front of him (he probably fainted...lol) Bors dropped his goblet of ale, Dagonet let the bread in his mouth crumble and fall to the floor, Lancelot fell out of his chair, Arthur's eye started to twitch, and Tristan sliced his finger with the knife he was cutting his apple with.

Selene looked at them all. "I thought you guys would take this well. It is a good thing." she said to the frozen knights and Arthur, whose eye was still twitching.

Lancelot looked at her. "A good thing?" The knights started to rise from their chairs. The girls and Estel got up and ran out of the room. They ran past the bishop whne Kimmerlee exclaimed, "They can't get to us...the bishop is entering the room!"

Emilee looked to Estel then to the door that lead to the round table. "Yeah, but I have a bad feeling about this."
