I am sorry if my first chapter was a little primitive. This is my first fanfic and I don't know the unwritten rules. Sorry.

I would also like to say that English is not my mother tongue and therefore I beg you to forgive me if I have any errors in my spelling and my grammar. Feel free to criticize any errors to help improve my spelling.

Here is chapter three.

Enjoy!

Chapter 3

...~*~...

Aurora was tired. After the meeting with Arthur and the knights, she had fought with her sister. Her sister had of course disliked everything that had been decided in the meeting. She called the idea "barbaric" that their father would burn and not be buried and she had absolutely not understood why Aurora wanted to stay in this " God forsaken country".

It had been a long day and Aurora wanted to take a ride and clear her thoughts. She couldn't do that of course, cause she wasn't allowed to but she headed for the stables anyway, just to get a bit of fresh air.

When she arrived at the stables the stable master Jols were there, or at least she thought he was the stable master. She greeted him, and he smiled back, a little surprised however at her appearance there. She continued to the horses and took a bit of hay in her hands to give to the horses. She stood and sang on a song that reminded her of home, or well of Rome, while she pat a newborn foal on its neck.

"Look who's here" She heard someone whispering.

"I be damned" she heard another one" I didn't think she could leave her room" said a new voice.

She was a little angry at these words and turned to se who had said theme. Of course it was the youngest of the knights, Galahad, Gawain and Percival.

"Hello" she said looking quite sternly in their eyes. They simply smiled back.

"We didn't mean to offend you," it was Percival who said this, apparently seeing her angry appearance, " my lady" he added.

Aurora didn't want to be rude so she curtsied and gave them a smile while saying my lords.

"What are you doing out here?" Galahad asked

"Well, I just wanted a bit of fresh air" she smiled. " It has been a long day". Seeing once again her distressed look Percival wondered what was wrong.

"Oh, everything, my sister, my father"

"Your sister didn't like the idea of you staying here" Gawain asked while going to stand next to her, eyeing the foal to make sure it was alright.

"No, not quite, she.." but Aurora stopped before saying anything else, she didn't want to offend them. They however seemed to understand what she was going to say.

"Its alright my lady, we don't like this island that much either, actually I don't know why you want to stay" Galahad blurted out, once again earning a kick, but this time from Percival.

"Excuse him, he haven't learned how to behave around a lady" Percival said smiling,

"Or a any women" Gawain added earning himself a rather grim look from Galahad.

Aurora laughed, it was quite fun watching them and talking to them. They were so easygoing, not like Rome.

They seemed quite taken aback by her sudden relaxed demeanor, they had never seen this side of her.

"What? You didn't think I could laugh? Not all romans are boring" She smiled.

"No, but they are still roman" Lancelot came behind the other three giving her a look of annoyance? Apparently the other three, was a little annoyed with Lancelot cause they gave him rather stern looks.

"Oh, that was well put, if you excuse me, it think I should return to my sister." she said " Goodbye" she curtsied and left the four of them looking at her back.

"Why did you do that for?" Galahad yelled

"Quite Lancelot, that was unnecessary, we were talking" Percival said.

"What? I merely pointed out that she is a roman"

"You are such an arse" Gawain added

"What, if she is offended by being roman, that's not my problem"

"Oh, do shut up" Percival said before going, followed by the other two

"Where are you going?"

"To the tavern, I need a drink to be able to listen to you" Percival said before turning left and becoming invincible to the eye.

"And you two?" Lancelot asked looking at Gawain and Galahad.

"Well, I think Percival's plan sounds like a good one, so does Galahad" Gawain responded.

" Just go" Lancelot murmured to himself. Really what did they expect? For him to embrace her like a friend just because she was a woman, she was roman after all. And she was the daughter of that vile man, oh how he had hated that excuse of a man. A roman officer, more like a roman priest. He had always spoken of his god and how Lancelot and the other knights should be baptist, please Lancelot belonged to no god ,only Rome he thought bitterly.

She was rather beautiful though, even he could se that. He had never noticed that before but today when she spoke of his friends, his fellow knights as the brave men they were he saw. She was the typical roman, brown eyes, brown hair or maybe not brown. More like a mix of hazel, and copper. And her eyes were more yellow than brown. He shook his head, what was he doing? How did he know this? He had just seen her a couple of time, or rather every day this last year. Had it already been a year? The years went by so fast, especially now, at the end. Only two more years to go, then he was free, at last. He sighed and started to walk back to the fort.

He had barely reached his room until he heard screams and noises. He found Bors and Vanora listening outside the romans room, outside Aurora's and her sister's room.

"What's going on he asked" earning a silent hush from Vanora.

"Apparently Aurora's sister is mad at Aurora for wanting to burn their father but Aurora think it's a good idea and because she is the eldest, its her call."Bors said.

"And then there is the fact that Aurora wants to stay in Britain and this her sister Sarah can't understand" Vanora added

"No , she thinks it is and I quote" it is a barbaric place, the people have no education and they are not Christians. I can't believe you want to stay here, how can you leave me alone" Bors added without breathing. Lancelot smirked

"Wow Bors, you sound like girl, talking about all this gossip and quoting" Lancelot said and received a punch from Bors.

"No one is as manly as I am! "

"Hush" Vanora said to them both. Lancelot wasn't that interested when he suddenly heard a vase break, indicating that someone had thrown it. He guessed it wasn't Aurora.

"Who could you?" They heard Auroras voice. " This was our mothers" you could hear Aurora's voice choking.

"Poor girl" Vanora said

"Oh what do I care! She is dead! I never meat her!"

"THAT IS PRECISELY WHY IT IS SO PRECIOUS TO US!". Lancelot was surprised by Auroras outburst but he understood her.

"Don't you scream at me!" said Sarah

"Oh, why must you be so difficult?" once again Auroras voice

"Am I being difficult? Am I? You are the one who have cursed our father, you are the one who are leaving me"

"I am not leaving you, but I am staying here! There is nothing for me in Rome" Suddenly Lancelot's mind cleared, when he heard her last statement, perhaps now he could understood what she had meant earlier.

"You are overreacting my dear sister, Rome isn't so bad."

"So bad? You must be joking with me sister? Rome is lost, the priests, the bishops, everyone is corrupted, the emperor and the pope have all the power, the parliament has lost all its power and we are about to fall!"

"Don't be ridiculous sister, Rome will never fall"

Yes it will, and soon" Aurora's voice had a definite tone to it, as if it already was certain that Rome would fall.

"Argh, I don't know why you think this, when it is so utterly wrong!" Sarah said.

"It is not, and that is why I want you to stay, here, with me!"

"I will not stay here with you, my place is in Rome"And suddenly Lancelot heard a loud bang, he guessed it was a door and a woman's footsteps.

"Poor girls" Vanora said before walking away with Bors and screaming after number 6.

Lancelot stayed outside the door and heard a woman softly cry. She is all alone he thought. He was surprised of how this made him feel, he wanted to reach out to her, to sooth her. He didn't know what happened but suddenly he found himself knocking on the door.
