REVIEW

They sat there eating their food and Nana came by and occasionally filled up their drinks. "Man this food is awesome." Said Kama taking another bite of her mutton. "Crap." "It's not crap it is very good." Said Kama frowning at Nicole. "Not that, that!" said Nicole pointing at the two men that just walked in. Kama peeked around the bench then slid back, "What are Dag and Tristian doing here?"

----

"I don't know," said Nicole watching the knights for a moment then looked back at Kama. "They think we got kidnapped again." Said Nicole. "Great so the heroes come late again. What do we do?" "Get out of here and back to Arthur's house before they find us and freak out." "How…they are starting to talk with Nana. What now Einstein?" asked Kama. "Follow me." Whispered Nicole.

"Oh yes those nice woman saved my grand baby." Said Nana.

"I can't believe that hey were so polite." She added.

"I'm sure, but we need to know where they are now." Said Dag.

"You don't intend them any trouble do you?" asked Nana crossing their arms over her chest.

"No we really need to speak with them." Said Dag.

Nana looked the two men up and down then said, "Fine they are right ove…" Nana turned to point to the table but the only evidence anyone was there was a tipped over glass of water. Nicole and Kama made it out the door and started running back to Arthur's house.

"This is ridicules." Breathed Nicole.

"Yea it is, why..the…bloody…hell…" asked Kama between breaths.

"Save your breath we still have awhile to go." said Nicole.

They ran past the last house, "Nicole the front of the house is that way." Said Kama.

"But Dag and Tristian are going in the house that way." Said Nicole pulling Kama behind her.

The two women clamored in a window and scrambled to their room. When they got to their room Nicole said, "Take your sword off, and your shoes."

Nicole hopped around the room pulling her shoes off. When Nicole had her shoes and swords in a remotely neat pile she done in the bed and got under the covers. "Hurry up Kama they are coming." Said Nicole.

"Why are we doing this?"

"Because if they think that we are asleep then they won't yell at us." Said Nicole.

"Good idea." Said Kama taking her sword sheath off.

Kama just got under the covers when the knights stomped in. "We sa…" started Tristian but Dag stopped him, "Tristian can't you see they are trying to sleep?" asked Dag.

"It is hardly dinner time." Said Tristian still sounding annoyed.

"We can talk to them later, let them sleep." Said Dag.

"Yea we need our rest." Yelled Kama.

"Always have to say something don't you?" asked Nicole sitting up.

The girls got out of bed and stepped away from Tristian and Dag. "Look we are so…"

"Don't start." Ordered Dag walking closer to Kama.

"You could have been hurt." Said Tristian as he and Dag backed the girls against the wall.

"Or worse. Why didn't you tell us what you were doing?" asked Dag.

"You two need to think before you do something like that." Said Tristian.

The girls hit their backs against the wall, "What did you have in your head?" asked Dag.

Kama was feeling guilty until that question, "I'll tell you what we were thinking!" yelled Kama getting in Dag's face making him and Tristian step back.

"We were thinking of getting our swords! And we were thinking of saving Sara when those men had her cornered in the alley." By now Kama had forced them back out the door.

"And she was worried that you two would panic and do something drastic and I said no they wouldn't they are too smart, but I was wrong! Now good day!" yelled Kama slamming the door in the men's faces.

"Did that just happen?" asked Tristian in slight shock.

"Yes it did." Said Dag turning and walking away dazed. "I'm going to bed." Said Nicole lying down in bed.

"But you haven't had dinner and it has to be six at the latest." Said Kama putting on her boots.

"Good night." Was all Nicole said. Kama walked to the dining hall along and sat down.

About halfway through diner Arthur asked, "Where is Nicole?"

Kama didn't look at Arthur but glared at Tristian and Dag, "She didn't feel well so she skipped dinner and went to bed." Tristian and Dag just looked down at their plates. "Well in the morning tell her I wish her health better, I also nee to speak with the two of you at lunch. There are things we need to talk about." Said Arthur. "Alright." Said Kama smiling at Arthur then peacefully and quietly ate her dinner.

Next Morning Nicole and Kama are looking for Arthur so they can find a place where they can practice their swordsmanship.

"Where the heck is he?" asked Nicole.

"Really we've looked all over this damn house." Said Kama annoyed.

Nicole saw down the hall Arthur go around a corner, and Kama was looking the other way and saw Dag and Tristian pass around another corner.

"Hey I saw Arthur." Said Nicole watching the corner he turned.

"Ah yea go ask him I forgot something." Said Kama looking at the corner the men went around.

"Alright see you in a minute." Said Nicole as the girls walked from each other.

Nicole jogged around the corner and called, "Arthur!"

"Ah Nicole I trust you are well?" he asked. "Much better this place is very relaxing." Smiled Nicole.

"Thank-you, did Kama tell you about the meeting?" he asked.

"Yea, um before that meeting Kama and I wanted to practice our weaponry. Would you be able to point us to a safe place were we won't get under foot?" asked Nicole.

"Oh yes there is an old yard in the back you may use, however it be a bit muddy from the rain." Said Arthur.

"Thanks." Said Nicole. Nicole turned and walked away looking for Kama

Same time as Nicole and Arthur are talking

"Ah just the two boys I was looking for." Said Deidra, Tristian and Dag stopped walking and turned.

"Now I was wondering which one of you two I have to check in with? Just so you don't have to run around saving us. Oh wait you didn't Nicole and I saved ourselves. And what about the chasing us around and then yelling at us and making us feel bad, which did not work except on Nicole." said Kama.

Dag opened his mouth, "Don't you say a word I'm not done. You should be the ones with a guilty feeling," knowing that it wasn't true Kama continued with, "Nicole cried herself to sleep. So I hope you feel proud of yourselves." Said Kama turning and walking off.

The girls met in the hallway, "Hey Kama, Arthur said wee could go out back and practice but it'll be muddy. What are you so smug about?" asked Nicole frowning.

"Nothing, let's go." said Kama.

About ten minutes later Kama and Nicole had stretched out and swords drawn.

They circled each other, "So what'd you have for diner last night?" asked Nicole taking a gentle stab at Kama.

"Nothing special." Replied Kama dancing to the right.

"Oh, well it must have been interesting enough to keep Dag and Tristian away from everyone this morning." Said Nicole stabbing at Deidra.

"Nope." Was all Kama said.

Nicole pulled away and asked in a raised voice, "What the hell happened?"

"Nicole chill out." Said Kama pushing Nicole back.

"No I'd like to know what happened." Said Nicole fighting defensively.

Dag and Tristian were using a window that faced the yard to watch the two girls fight. "Looks like they are working and speaking is all." Said Dag.

Tristian leaned against the windowsill, "Hmm." "Come on we'd best leave them to their work." Said Dag patting Tristian's shoulder and walking away.

Tristian stood there watching Nicole and Kama back each other up with sword blows that could be easily deflected fairly easily. He shook his head with a sigh and jogged up even with Dag,

"You…" started Dag but he was cut off by Kama's yells, "Damn it Nicole! Get a grip!"
