So, Thom, how is the training? I see you are still alive so I take that as a good sign Allana added jokingly, as she remembered Thom's abilities with weapons that really it was sad.
"Not bad Lana, like you said I have managed to stay alive for the time being. Though it would not surprise me if but a babe could beat me, and well I make do with the books in the library to keep me entertained. And what about you sister dearest? How's the convent been?
Allana shriveled her face in disgust, "just terrific! That is, if I enjoyed torturing myself, and if that day ever comes I'll know the perfect place." Thom roared with laughter, "Yep same old Allana! So still a kickass with the weapons? "
"Well I have err… what's the word, met some interesting people who were happy to teach me" Alanna said with a mischievous glint in her eyes.
Thom grinned, "Very well sister, I'll have to leave it at that because I, have the wonderful duty's at the ball tonight so we'll meet here again tomorrow, after my lessons, oh yeah this is your room." And with a warm goodbye, Thom left to attend to his squire duties.
As it was only midday and she figured that all the squires and pages would either be preparing for there duties or in classes.
Therefore, the practice courts would be free for her to practice some weaponry.
She had set up four different targets and was alternating her shots at random between the four different ranges, never firing at the same one more than twice in a row. Remembering what her friends had said, "If you fire at the same target, you'll begin to rely on the first shot to determine your direction and elevation. That way you'll never learn to throw instinctively"
Frowning in concentration, she let her four daggers fly at the targets. One after the other, in rapid succession, they flashed across the ground thudding into the targets.
She nodded in satisfaction; every dagger had hit its mark in the inner ring of the bulls eye itself.
She had just collected the daggers and was preparing to throw again, when the sound of footsteps behind her made her turn.
She didn't recognize Him, only that he had jet-black hair and was about as old as her biological father. However, she nodded a greeting hoping he couldn't tell she was a girl.
"Good day, what brings you here"
"Well I heard someone practicing from my study, for I thought it was a bit odd since it's after midday and all pages and squires are inside yet one is here"
"Err im not a page" And with that she ran away.
Ok so fine she didnt go to the shang yet but she will soon at the man was the kingonly she didnt know, thanks to everyone for there reviews.
