Sorry people. It's taken me this long because my mind has been a total blank and not many ideas have been popping up. Give me some ideas. Any will help.

Chapter 2: Calm Before the Storm

Igraine took a deep breath in and breathed out. She opened her eyes with a smile on her face.

Elixir entered Igraine's tent. "Come on Igraine. Agravain is calling all knights for an announcement." Igraine grabbed her winter jacket and wore it over her armor, covering her legs. As she left her tent, she saw her comrades gathered around Agravain.

"Alright, thanks to to the information gathered by Dindrane, we can now have a plan of attack." Agravain spoke with certainty. "However, by the sheer number of their forces, we won't last long ."

Igraine kept her composure. 'I knew we would eventually find them, but I didn't think we would going to encounter a small army.' She thought.

"Now, this has to be done quietly and efficiently. We only have one chance to dismantle whatever they're making. Two of their leading commanders are also present. The same commanders who led the attack on the sanctuary years ago. Chaos Maker and Nebula Lord Dragon."

Bruno's expression hardened as he clenched his fists together. He started to here faint sounds of screaming and crackling wood as this same feeling rushed through his mind; remembering old memories.

Igraine was the first to take notice of his reaction.'What's... wrong with him? I've never seen him like this before.' Igraine thought to herself.

"That is all. We will discuss the plan when you're all prepared." The Knights disbanded walking for their own respective tents.

Igraine saw Bruno march into his tense. 'What should I do to help?' She asked herself. When she was about to walk towards his tent, she heard a familiar voice.

"Don't try to help him. Just give him some time to get his head on straight." She turned her head to see Gorlois. "What wrong with him? I've never seen this side of him." she asked. "Just drop it. He doesn't like to talk about his past." He said in a concerned tone.

"Why? What doesn't he like to talk about?" She asked nervously. "Just. Drop it" he said in a serious tone. It's just an accident that happened. A really bad accident." He said walking away. Igraine wanted to ask more questions, but she knew she wouldn't get anywhere.

"So..." Gorlois turned his head towards Igraine; trying to hold back his laughter.

"Hm?" Igraine said; confused of why he was smiling.

"Do you... like him?" Gorolois said with a big grin on his face .

"Hmm!" Igraine panicked as she heavily blushed; knowing that he hit the nail on the head. "That's ... That's none of your business!" she screamed with her hands at her sides; trying to keep calm.

It was true. After spending time with Bruno for sometime back at the sanctuary, she began to feel something she wouldn't expect to have towards the archer, but she couldn't let him know... not yet at least.

"I knew it." Gorlois said , making it sound like an achievement. "When you get the chance, cheer him up, try to get back that smile of his. Igraine nodded.

"Hmm. I've always wondered how you two would look as a couple." Gorlois said with another big grin on his face.

Igraine's face burned even hotter, showing mist escaping into the cold air. "H-HEY STOP THAT! She screamed while Gorlois was trying desperately not to laugh too hard.

After he stopped, he entered back into his tent. Igraine finally calmed herself down, she started towards her own tent. Before she entered, she felt a strange feeling within her, but she couldn't decide if it was from Gorlois' teasing or that someone or something was watching her. She shrugged it off and entered.

Through the heavy snow, something was staring at the camp devilishly With its blood red eyes. Practically fixated on what was happening.

End of Chapter

So, just as I promised, I made this chapter a bit more longer. Leave ideas in the reviews. Do you love it, hate it. You know what to do.
