I know its short but something happens that I just had to end it like this. Updates will be coming at least once a week from now on and they will be longer. I love the reviews and I love that you guys like my writing and I hope to keep getting feedback from you all. Let's just say life at the moment sucks and reasons for stating this story have quickly vanished right before my eyes but I will do my best to not let anything ruin this story.
Alice slowly regained awareness to the world of the living as her body started to demand nourishment. Stretching Alice noticed that Mirana was not in the bed with her as she had been when she fell asleep in her Queens's arms the previous night. She had been so exhausted that when she had appeared in her Queens's chambers she had almost fainted in her Queens's arms. Of course Mirana had immediately taken her to bed helping to undress her and then slipping in beside her. Alice had had just enough strength left to hear her Queen tell her to sleep and feel her kiss the top of her head as it lay on her chest and Alice had done just that. She hadn't even gotten to tell Mirana what had happened that day.
Pulling the sheet around her Alice left the bed in search of its missing occupant. Her Queens chambers where slightly larger than her own and seemed somehow more elaborate in a way that made all the white seem different in there shades. Alice left the bedroom through high arched double doors that stood wide open invitingly into what looked to be a study of sorts with the walls lined with full bookcases and still large enough to accommodate a desk and work table that had various items and also sat her Queen. Still in her night clothes Mirana sat with several books opened in front of her as well as the sword and dagger that she had been carrying with her when she arrived were placed on the table in her view.
"My Queen," Alice called out softly as to not startle Mirana though in vain as the beautiful woman jumped slightly.
"Oh Alice, how are you feeling this morning?" Mirana smiled as she looked up to Alice still worried that there might be something wrong with her Champion.
"Wonderful, though I had hoped to wake up with you there." Alice couldn't help the smile that crossed her face as she watch her Queen blush at her words.
"My apologies my dear Champion but I could not sleep. These weapons that you brought with you they seemed so familiar and intriguing and I had to do something to distract myself from my worry." Mirana got up from the table walking to Alice her fingers immediately came up to caress Alice's cheek causing her to sigh at the contact. Alice wrapped her arms around her Queens's waist pressing her to her exposed front and hiding her face in her Queens's shoulder. Mirana quickly returned the embrace wrapping her own arms around her Champion enjoying the moment that was spared the two of them. After a moment Alice found her curiosity getting the better of her again making her shift back so she could look at her Queen.
"So have you found anything?" Mirana chuckled softly.
"I have but first you must tell me how ever you came across them love?"
Alice decided then and there to come clean about everything and told her Queen everything that had happened since she found the knife in the stables the night the horses had been slain. Mirana looked a little distraught when Alice told her about following the voice into the woods and the look only grew worse as she told her of climbing the mountain. Alice knew she shouldn't have but in her heart she knew she would do whatever it took to keep her Queen safe and happy. When Alice was done with her tale Mirana quickly turned to her books.
"Alice I believe I have heard of this sword somewhere," Mirana turned back around to face Alice only to find her vanished.
"You shouldn't have done that Alice." The voice echoed in her ear as Alice tried to adjust her eyes to the dark. Her hands immediately went to her sides and surprisingly found the sword and dagger there as well as clothing on her body. "Those won't help you right now."
"What have you done?" Alice yelled into the darkness wanting answers that never seem to be given to her.
"Why getting started my sweet champion." The voice suddenly became more feminine and sweeter sounding and Alice could swear she felt a hand laid itself on her arm.
"Getting started with what exactly?" Alice couldn't help but to ask through gritted teeth.
"Why making you the champion you were meant to be my sweet girl." Alice for some reason got a bad feeling of for boding with that one sentence.
"Why don't you show yourself?"
"All in time champion all in time, for now you must slumber," Alice started feeling herself grow heavy and tired. "And when you wake I promise you will know your purpose."
The sweet feminine voice was the last thing she heard as her body shut down making the darkness sink deeper into her very being. Fearing everything was lost to her Alice sank into the darkness fighting to remain to find her way back to her Queen.
