HEY! Wow! A month! So sorry but school is so hard and long and boring, so by the time I get home I wanna veg. But here you go!

I own nothing. Thanks for reviewing but more would be nice.

When they emerged moments later with the only survivors, a young boy and young woman both badly beaten.

"Water! Bring me some water!" Horton rushed to Arthur with water for the woman.

Surprisingly the untrusting man seemed to care about the young boy. When the woman lapsed into a coughing fit at the water, Marius' wife hurried over to help her.

"She's a Woad." Tristan observed to Bors.

"Stop what you are doing!" Marius cut in on Arthur assuring the Woad woman.

"What is this madness?" Arthur asked him.

"They're all pagans here!" Marius shouted.

"So are we." Galahad said.

"They refuse to do the task God has set for them!" Marius raged on. "They must die as an example!"

"You mean they refuse to be your serfs!" Arthur yelled back.

"You are a Roman." Marius scoffed at Arthur. "You understand. And you are a Christian." Then he turned on his wife. "You! You kept her alive!" He backhanded her. Before Arthur could even move to punch him Marius was on the ground with a broken nose that was bleeding profusely.

"You even think of touching any woman like that ever again," Star threatened, holding her long dagger to his neck, "and you shall die a painful death. Roman man all the same. " Star spat at his head and walked away.

Star swung onto her horse and rode up next to Tristan. "Are you all right?" Tristan asked he could see the anger rolling off her.

"As soon as the Fat man lays in the Earth ground I shall be." Star said and the journey back begun. After awhile Star saw Arthur talking to the woad woman. She seemed to be flirting with him. After he left it seemed that she started to seem to flirt with Lancelot. Star rode up to eavesdrop because Tristan was gone and she had nothing better to do.

"'Tis a beautiful country is it not?" Guinevere spoke from behind them, obviously to Lancelot. Out of the corner of her eye Star saw Lancelot glance back at Guinevere looking slightly surprised.

"If you say so." He replied with his back turned to her.

"And where do you come from that compares?" Lancelot turned to Guinevere smiling. "The black sea?"

She didn't wait for him to answer and said. "This is heaven for me."

"I don't believe in heaven." Lancelot began rather cryptically, "I've been living in this hell." Then he leaned forward in his saddle and gave her a sly grin. "But if you represent what heaven is, then take me there" Then it began to rain.

"Rain and snow at once," Star said. She looked back down at Lancelot and Guinevere, "a bad omen."

Then she turned and rode away. She found Arthur looking troubled. "What is wrong?"

"Rome is no more." Arthur said thinking about what Alecto told him earlier.

"Why? All you talked about is Rome and how great it is." Star said. She never told him about the time she was in Rome. He should learn on his own.

"He said my mentor is dead by the order of the Bishop."

"'Tis true. He been dead for 3 years."

"Yes."

"Arthur. I trust you." and with that Star rode off leaving Arthur to think some more. Star did not talk to any one until later that night when she went up Lancelot and said, "Enjoying the show?" She asked making Lancelot jump.

"I was."

"Be careful."Star left to find her husband. She found him by a tree feeding his hawk. "Hello" She purred in his ear from behind him.

"Hello, minx." He whispered huskily and pulled her away from everyone else. She laughed happily as he swung her around and hugged tightly. "I love you."

"Love you more." She whispered back.

"But I love you for longer." He said starting a game they had played as newlyweds.

"Not much. I loved you as long as I can remember." Star whispered before kissing him deeply. He kissed her back with all his might.

They were on the ice. The arrows were put next to each knight and the 2 women.

"I believe their waiting for an invitation." Arthur said as an arrow clattered useless in front of them. "Bors, Tristan, Star."

"They're far out of range." Guinevere stated.

"Not for us." Star replied with a smirk. Star aimed. Tristan and Bors aimed as well and tilted their bows. They let loose their arrows and killed 6 men.

"Their are a lot of lonely men out there." Lancelot told Guinevere.

"Don't worry, I won't let them rape you." she replied.

"HA!"Star yelled him. He just sulked.

Soon was fighting ensued. It soon became clear that the ice would not break so they prepared to die. Dag dashed out and began to hit the ice with his axe. Arrows assailed him immediately and Star took Tristan shield and followed him.

"What -smack- are-smack- you doing?" Dag asked between smacks.

"Saving you ass." Star said blocking arrows with her shield. Just then the ice broke taking Star in but Dag who was behind it was just hit by an arrow. Star couldn't swim. As she fell deeper into the lake she saw the fate of Saxons. She tried going higher by jumping unto Saxons and climbing to the surface when a hand pulled her out of the lake. She saw Tristan and mange to choke out, "Tristan." And everything went black for her.

"Star wake up. Wake up." Tristan was yelling at her. His voice slightly panicky.

"She merely blacked out from the cold." Guinevere told him. "Get her out of the wet clothes and keep her warm with your body heat." Tristan stripped her of her wet clothes and put on her extra clothes on and kept her close to him.

They arrived faster then normal Tristan put Star in the sick Caravan and putat least6 layers of fur on her. Dag was being taken care of by Guinevere.

"They will live." She told them.
