Dark Mina: Alright, I know you guys want longer chapters so I'll try my best at making them longer, but no promises I'll be good at it.
Ash: How hard is it to make a long chapter?
Dark Mina: I'm not good at making long chapters okay?
Ash: whatever.
Dark Mina: *glares at Ash*
Puck: Well, on with the story.
Recap: I couldn't believe what I just said as me and Kiri stared at each other. A hand was over my mouth and I couldn't stop thinking she's going to tell Mab, who will tell Oberon and I'll have a front row seat on the train to the human world, stuck forever going insane slowly.
Finally I was surprised when Kiri said, "Okay let me think of something to do."
Thorn
I stared at Kiri in shock as I stuttered, "Y-you'll help m-me?"
She nodded saying, "Why not? It would put some excitement in my life."
"Alright then."
I was still stunned as we sat in a patch of grass. I laid on my back with my hands behind my head. As I looked up at the tangled branches of the trees I asked, "So, you thinking of a plan to help me?"
"Actually yes," Kiri answered surprising me again.
"What's the plan then?" I asked.
"Well, I was thinking you and Kierran could see each other at the Winter court."
"Oh yeah, Mab is having a ball isn't she?"
Kiri nodded and asked, "Weren't you and Goodfellow invited?"
"I was, my dad wasn't," I answered smirking. "Last time he was at the Winter court he started some pretty bad fights between all the courts."
"What happened?"
"Well, while Titania and Mab were at each other's throats Oberon and Meghan finally boomed in and stopped it ending the party. Then everyone figured out Titania and Mab were fighting because my dad was making them hear rumors that Titania and Oberon are going to try and take over the Winter court and Mab's going to kill Titania then go after Oberon. Once that was figured out though someone threw a redcap at my dad but he ducked and the redcap hit a nymph, who punch the guy he thought threw the redcap, and from there all hell broke loose."
"Were you fighting also?"
"No, me and Kierran just sat back and laughed."
She actually let out a chuckle as she said, "Wish I was there to see it."
I looked at her and asked, "Why weren't you there?"
She just looked out in the distance as she answered, "I was helping my mother." I was going to ask what happened to her mom when she said, "Her name is Assirra, she's still alive, but she was very sick. I was worried she was going to die, but when she didn't she told me who my father was. A while after she told me Mab found out and I had to move in with her."
"Why?" I asked.
Kiri looked at me with her face back to looking emotionless as she said, "Because my father is Rowand."
Silence surrounded us as I processed what she just said. Rowand? Rowand? Rowand?! How is she Rowand's daughter? I looked at Kiri as she went back to staring out in the distance, I noticed her ice blue eyes and how cold they look but there was some warmth in them too. She was drop dead gorgeous like any other Winter fey also, but nothing I could see that screamed Rowand, then again I never saw the guy.
Finally Kiri spoke up, "Do you think I'm a betrayer like my dad?"
"No," I answered faster that I thought I would.
She looked at me surprised, which surprised me but then she asked, "Really?" I nodded and mumbled, "Mab even thinks I'm a betrayer."
"Well she's an evil witch."
"Hey!"
"So is Titania."
Kiri just laughed shaking her head mumbling something about idiots.
I don't know how long we sat there, but when we went our separate ways the sun was setting. My first thought was Dad must be so worried, but then I wondered why I should care. I was still pissed he told me I can never see Kierran again.
I decided to stay with a friend of mine. Her name is Hanna; she lives close to the Wyldwood so it didn't take long for me to get to her house.
Hanna opened the door right after I knocked. Her long blonde hair looked like curled gold as usual, her green eyes shined, and to top off her beauty she had olive skin. Any human male would love to have her in his bed, but to me I just saw a whore who looked like she should be a Winter fey. She looked especially whorish because she was wearing a red tube top that showed her entire stomach and leather tight pants with matching high heel boots.
"Oh, hey Thorn, I was just about to go out," Hanna said leaning against the door frame.
"I'll be quick then," I replied. "I need a place to stay and was wondering if I could stay with you."
Hanna sighed as she said, "Look, Thorn you can't stay here."
"Oh yeah, I forgot you don't let girls into your house."
Hanna gasped and I swear she was about to kill me, but I was too far away before she could do anything.
I walked back to the Wyldwood. I walked to Kierran and my spot and just sat on the rock holding my legs to my chest. I didn't really think I could go to one of my dad's old friends to stay with them, so I figured I would have to stay and sleep on the rock. I had to admit I was a little worried but I had my dagger and hoped I would be able to protect myself.
I laid down on the rock and watched the water as I slowly fell asleep. I noticed the water was calm and thought there actually might not be anything in it. I smiled a bit and closed my eyes.
Coming through the trees quickly he looked determined. Once he came to the clearing he spent no time looking at his surroundings and went straight to the girl on the rock, he swung her over his shoulder and carried her to Tir Na Nog.
I fell off the rock with the image of the man carrying me to Tir Na Nog still in my head when he came through the clearing. He still looked as determined as he did in my dream and still went straight towards me without wasting time.
"Holy crap," I mumbled.
I quickly got up and pulled out my dagger, he saw my dagger and unsheathed his sword. Our blades clashed right when I got up, but as we fought I noticed he had straight shaggy black hair, turquoise eyes, and pale skin but I wasn't really paying attention to anything else.
"Who are you?" I asked him blocking his sword from stabbing me.
"None of your business," he answered.
"Well, you're attacking me so it is my business."
He just slashed at me. We kept fighting tell I felt something hard hit my head then everything went dark.
I woke up cold and in a room I didn't recognize. My head hurt but I ignored it as I got up and looked out the only window in the room. The first thing I noticed was snow then how dark it was and knew exactly where I was.
Oh crap! I thought looking around the room, what am I going to do? Why am I here? Question after question kept flooding my mind. Then, when I to the point of exploding, the guy I was fighting before walked in.
I became alert the instant I saw his face. He casually closed the door behind him and looked at me.
"I bet you're wondering why I'm here," he predicted.
"No, I'm wondering why I'm here," I answered annoyed.
He ignored me and said, "I'm here to tell you: Mab just sent a message to Robin Goodfellow about your capture."
I just glared at him because if I talked he would probably ignore me again.
"You don't have anything to say?" he asked.
"No because you won't listen to me," I answered crossing my arms.
"I'm listening to you now, aren't I?"
"Surprisingly."
I sat down on the bed expecting him to leave, but instead he just stood next to the door watching me.
"Need something?" I asked looking at him with a raised eyebrow.
"No, but I am post to watch you," he answered.
"Seriously? You're my babysitter?"
"If that's what you want to call it."
I sighed and asked, "What's your name anyway?"
"Why?" he asked.
"So I have something to call you, unless you want me to call you asshole all the time."
He glared at me as he said, "My name is Ion."
"Great now we know each other's name, so leave."
"Fine, I'll be standing outside so don't try anything. You'll regret it later," Ion threatened as he walked out.
Yeah right, I thought rolling my eyes, but once the door closed I went straight to the window. I thought I would be able to climb down, but sadly the window was sealed with ice. I sighed, then looked around the room for something to break the window. I could use a book I thought when I noticed one on the nightstand next to the bed. I knew I had to be quick, but to give myself more time I put a chair in front of the door.
Ready to get the hell out of there, I threw the book, broke the window, and jumped out breaking what was left of the glass. Ion was slamming on the door but I ignored it.
As soon as I was falling to the ground I tried turning into a raven but couldn't, then I tried turning into a blue bird but again I couldn't. In my head I was freaking out but on the outside I fell to the ground rolling. I quickly got to my feet and ran for it. I didn't look back to see if anyone was even following me.
Dark Mina: That wasn't as long as I wanted, but hey it was still dramatic, right?
Ash: Fail.
Puck: Epic fail.
Dark Mina: *pulls out metal baseball bat* Don't make me hurt you two.
Ash: Ooooh so scary.
Puck: *hides behind Ash* That might be iron, it is scary.
Ash: Iron doesn't hu-
Dark Mina: *hit Ash with baseball bat knocking him out* You may have a pretty face but tell me I failed on a chapter like this again and you'll regret it.
Puck: Y-yes ma'am.
Ash: *groans*
Dark Mina: *smiles to readers hiding baseball bat like nothing happened* Now then, review and if you have any ideas for Kierran and Electra's date please tell me. ^^
