I'm back...FOR REAL this time! Thanks to everyone who reviewed and believed in my comeback :p
The Beginning of the Presumed End.
"Cool medieval horse houses." Jillian whispered to her cousin as they followed Arthur into the rather large building.
"Stables Jillian, stables." Lea stated rolling her eyes. But soon her eyes were preoccupied with something a bit more interesting; Dagonet had just intentionally bumped into that funky dude, you know the old one…big on the Christian church…the one Jillian said was the evil one…GERMANIUS! Bishop Germanius!
Jillian had seen it to judging by her giggles. Germanius noticed as well and shot the girl a very very evil look…you know the; you-kicked-my-puppy-fear-my-vengence-mwhahaha-look.
Well let's just say it was menacing enough to cause Jillian to shut her trap, and she was used to Lea's drop dead looks, so that's saying something.
And now, now there was this sinister uncomfortable silence and the girls just stood there completely useless as everyone went about their business.
"To represent the holy court, my trusted secretary, Horton..." Germanius stated looking around for that suck-up dude who just walked in. "Horton will accompany you with your quest."
"Oh brother I have to deal with mister I-have-a-stick-up-my-ass too?" Lea whispered to her cousin.
"Be nice! He's not that bad." Jillian mumbled back trying to keep as low profile as possible to avoid another death glare.
Meanwhile Arthur didn't look the least bit impressed, he looked indifferent to be honest. "Jols, find him a horse." He said turning to his trusted servant. "For the girls too."
"What!" Gawain stated dropping the knife he was polishing.
"I second that." Galahad stated his gaze fixed on Lea looking a bit horrified. He really didn't like her now did he? Wonder why….NOT!
"Arthur, I know you might want the company of women but-" Germanius started.
"Do I look like a slut to you bishop?" Lea spat out unable to hold her tongue. "For your information God is MY homeboy! He listens to me."
"Homeboy?" Galahad repeated but he was simply ignored.
"You should show me some respect girl." Germanius said threw his teeth advancing on the girl.
"Why should I respect the church of madness ruled by a pope who can't even wipe his own ass let alone understand the words of God." Lea stated hiding the fact she was a teeny tiny bit intimidated now.
"Enough!" Arthur announced his voice rose for once. "No more bickering. The ladies Lea and Jillian will be accompanying me and my men Germanius; I have faith in their talents."
Germanius face went dark before he turned away and stormed out of the stables. Leaving the company in complete and utter silence that was until Bors started laughing loudly.
"The look on that pompous bastard's face!" He said between laughs there were tears leaking from his eyes. "Gods girl I love ya! That was worth the whole fifteen years!"
"That's a bit overdone but highly amusing nonetheless." Dagonet stated smiling warmly.
"Lea," Jillian whispered as soon as the knights turned their attention back to their chores. "You were practically pissing your pants weren't you?"
"You have no idea." Lea said with a sigh closing her eyes as if in pain.
Hms, Lea WASN'T as fearless as she pretended to be.
(Latter on that day)
"I don't like horses." Lea mumbled as she tried to steady the animal.
"Sweetie, we followed horseback riding lessons for years." Jillian said as she patted her horse affectionately.
"You tricked me into following them."
"Guilty as charged." Jillian said smiling angelically but was noticeably starring off into a completely different direction.
"What are you looking at?" Lea muttered more to herself than to her cousin as she tried to follow Jillian's gaze.
It didn't take her long to locate the source of Jillian's 'affection'; Lancelot's back.
"Oh fucking hell Jillian, stop staring at Lancelot's ass!"
"What I can't see a lot of it! He's riding! And I'm just admiring the view!" Jillian said blushing scarlet.
"Admiring the view." Lea snorted before a shiver went up her back. "I feel like I'm being watched."
"We are." Jillian said in an all knowing fashion.
"Those forest people?"
"Yep."
And just as Jillian said the simple world Tristan could be heard announcing Woads were tracking them. Almost instinctively Dagonet and Gawain manoeuvred their horses next to the girls. Like they needed protection, Jillian knew the whole damn movie by heart!
The Woads were everywhere and even though Jillian knew nothing would harm them, she was frightened. Maybe it was because of the horses, they were acting spooked. And then, then the arrows were shoot out blocking their path.
"Back!" Lancelot shouted only to be repeated by Bors.
The girls followed the knights their lead as they tried to find an alternative path through the forest but eventually they were cornered.
"This way!" Arthur shouted.
Again the girls followed the knights just to be lead into another dead end. Just to find Woads who were jabbing up at them with pitchforks and long spears. Civilised people my ass. They reminded Lea of witch hunters and she didn't like witch hunters.
But soon her thoughts were on the knights who drew their weapons after Excalibur, Arthur's truly magnificent and legendary swords was drawn.
Things were looking kinda shifty but than a horn blew in the distance causing the Woads to look around as if frightened.
But one Woad, he pointed an arrow at Arthur's face, it didn't worry the girls though, they knew Arthur would survive the whole damn movie.
"What are you waiting for!" Gawain called as if irritated
But the Woads just lowered their arrows and retreated. "Inish! Devil ghosts!" Dagonet spat.
"Why would they not attack?" Galahad asked confused.
"Merlin doesn't want us dead." Arthur stated and Jillian simply nodded but nobody noticed her though. They were a bit preoccupied with the whole retreating Woads ordeal.
"I though Merlin was a good guy what the fuck is he doing annoying these guys?" Lea asked not minding the knights who started to move again obviously not wanting to waste any time.
"Duh Lea, they're on the Roman side Merlin is Briton!"
"We're not on the Roman side." Galahad said meddling in the conversation.
"You know eavesdropping is impolite." Jillian stated dryly.
"I wasn't eavesdropping!" Galahad said looking a bit insulted. "And don't you start with me too!"
"Eh?"
"I can handle that shrewd of a cousin of yours being mean!" He stated with a nod towards a glaring Lea. "But you're supposed to be the nicer one."
"So I'm the bitch or what?" Lea asked looking at Galahad like she was going to seriously hurt him, while Galahad on the other hand looked like a fish on dry land…
"How are you going to talk your way out of this one my friend?" Gawain asked laughingly as he rode past them. "Nothing is more dangerous than an angered woman."
TBC
And SOON this time! I promise!
