Sorry so long for the update, but here it is!

Previously: I jogged back to the table and picked it up quickly throwing it into the closest bag then exited preparing myself for another long journey.

I walked out to the stables to get my horse, Midnight. She was a beautiful, sleek black mare, with a little white splotch on the tip of her nose.

When I saw her all of her tack was on and the page was grooming her. Jasper was standing next to his roan, Strawberry. He didn't name the horse; it was actually his wife Alice (whom had finished knight school, but was incapable of continuing due to a hurt knee), who had to stay in Bordeaux while we pranced around on our horses killing people. Fun, huh?

"You ready to head out?" Jasper asked quietly.

"If you are…" Without a word I mounted placing my bags on either side of my horse's rump. Jasper finished mounting at about the same time. I waved the page off and tapped my horses side with my heel. Midnight walked forward without any protests.

Soon enough we were on the roads, heading to the northern border.

I was incredibly bored, because of the long length of silence among our fellow knights. It seems that another moment of silence, and I would spontaneously combust, just for something to do.

For some strange reason, Alice, Jasper's wife, has an odd way of knowing things like this, for at that moment she came galloping up on her Irish Sport. (In case you didn't know, that is a specific horse breed, look up Irish Sport Horse.)

Her guards seemed to be trailing behind, because she told them, or the little pixie was too fast. Either way I was glad to see her, she was fun. Or I could just say my friend.

About 100 paces away she called, "Bonjour! Comment allez-vous?"

Cheers went up around our troops. Wherever Alice went, a good time followed.

She rode right up to Jasper and just stared at him, and him her. It sent a pang of jealousy through me, and then I thought, I don't want to have a love. Their constricting! Get yourself together Bella!

I'd come back and not think of it again. Truly, I don't want a love, I wouldn't be free roaming anymore and that would just be inhumane in my point of view.

As we started to set up camp Alice walked over to me and whispered, "I have a bad feeling about this, we can't camp out here."

I turned towards her and arched an eyebrow. She cocked her head and shrugged. "Any particular reason for this, Alice?"

She contemplated for a moment. "Bella, the thing is, is that I feel that if we stay here not only will be not fare well, some of us will not walk away." I had learned by now to listen to what Alice thought, so I ran up to a little ledge and started yelling orders to pack up again. The camp was immediately in a frenzy as everyone scrambled to get ready. Within ten minutes we were on the move again. About three miles away from our original camp site, Alice told me it felt safer.

"Company, halt!" Everyone stopped and turned to look at me. I told them to get ready for rest and that we would get up and start going at the break of dawn.

Alice turned and gave me a little nod, as she turned away to enter her tent with Jasper.

This wasn't much of a change, I just know it wasn't well written originally, so now that it is changed I might be able to lead on a little bit.
