Here's 3 sorry it took so long, I had more pressing matters to attend to. But anyway here it is!
Disclaimer: Again, I own Rhendar, Fenway 9 not reffering to the ball park, though that would be soooo awesome!), Riff, Ailbree, Nerin, Elahar, Renlin, Neeave, and Arnin
Summary: Somewhat self explanatory don't you think?
And thanks to my reviewers!

Jailbreak
THE DARK DUNGEON WAS WET, MUSKY, AND RAT INFESTED. ELAHER SAT ON
the hard stone bench that was also intended to double as her bed. She had already counted the stones on the opposing wall six times and started counting how many times a rat ran past her, (she was now up to 22). She lay down and stared at the ceiling. Elahar was watching the frantic movements of a spider when she heard footsteps; she sat up and to her surprise saw not a guard but Neeave and Renlin. She was about to talk but Neeave brought a slender finger to her mouth to keep Elahar quiet.
Renlin unlocked the door and a grin spread across her face. "Come on," she mouthed to Elahar and Elahar followed. They climbed the winding stairs and were inches away from freedom when, "Wait!" came a deep voice. "It's Rhendar, the captain of the guard," breathed Elahar, "We're done for."
"Wait," he said in a breathy voice after running after the girls, "I want to help." "What, but what about what Arnin said?" asked Neeave. "Forget that, you should still be Queen, I can get you some horses and food, and you can be gone before anyone knows you are." Rhendar answered. "Thank you so much." said Elahar. Silently the tall, armor clad guard started towards his house and the girls followed.
THE GIRLS SAT AROUND THE TABLE WITH FENWAY, RHENDAR'S WIFE, AS
Rhendar went to get the horses. They sat in silence until they heard the approaching clacking of the horses' hooves. "He's back." Fenway sighed in relief. The tall, thin women stood and opened the door. "I got the horses, I believe you already know these." Rhendar said. The girls stepped out and found their own horses which they were happy to see. Elahar's was entirely brown, except its nose and ankles were a somewhat black, she had named it Neerin. Neeave's was white and had brown spots, its name was Ailbri. And Renlin's was as white as snow, its name, simply Riff.
"Thank you once again." said Elahar as Rhendar handed them each a bag filled with supplies. "It was nothing." replied Rhendar. "Oh, but what of when Arnin receives news." Renlin reminded them. "I know," answered Elahar, "Go immediately to Arnin and report my absence, if he asks who was on guard or accuses you say that Derque was on."
"But, he died not but a year ago." said Fenway. "I know," said Elahar, "But Arnin doesn't, he'll be searching for him, but you must spread word for people not to tell that he died, believe me I don't think they care for him too much." "I'll do just that," said Rhendar with a smile, "Now be off before someone sees you and draws a crowd."
The three rode off and as they did Elahar yelled back, "We'll be back, I promise, and free you from Arnin's reign." The three grew smaller in the distance until they were no more than black dots surrounded by an even darker sky. As Rhendar lie awake, Elahar's promise rung in his ears, he hoping she could keep it.
