On with the show--A journey of tests

[leiasolo]

It just doesn't make sense to Carrie. Here she was, tending to a previously un-attended fire, and all of a sudden these...people...come walking up, bringing with them a foul aura of discomfort.

To Vennessa she says, "I think I'll be alright, once someone tells me what's going on".

She begins gathering the rumpled tent, folding it small enough to fit in one of her bigger pockets.

"Ah, Warden...It seems as though you've adopted this youngling. Is there something I should know?"

[Warden]

Warden looks at Carrie and smiles,

"We adopted each other." he says.

He then looks at the whole group gathered here. he already knew the group would grow bigger still. He then said to them,

"It seems to me more introductions are needed."

[Arlen]

"Well now tha we are being all friendly and stuff I think I'll put down my guns."

"Hey warden ya mind stepping over here with me for a minute, it won't take but a sec." Arlen said quietly waiting for warden's response.

[Warden]

Warden gets off his horse, tring not to wake Fayth. He then moves over to Arlen.

"What wrong?" he asked.

[faith]

She wakes as she looked around. SHe yawns seeing she was on the horse again. SHe looked around for her protector, but seeing him not there. SHe looked around seeing the two women and the other two. She yawned tiredly again, yet to scared to sleep.

[Arlen]

*As Arlen moves Warden over to some trees to talk in private with him.

"First the girl is your responsibility now thats why I didn't say anything after she got back. But now is the time if you don't start showing a little control over her I'm promising you that we'll all live to regret it."

"Second off I don't like this guy and girl that just came up.... Whats up with that comment he made about farmboy, oh my name's Hatori I have a horse named black horse named night whippee do, ya know I say we let him prove himself with a little test."

Arlen smiled deviously

"What do you say?"

[Warden]

Warden saw from Arlen's smile, this would not end well.

"Sure, why not." said Warden, "As long as you don't hog all the fun." he smiles.

Warden then went over to Fayth and picked her up.

"Sorry I left you alone." he said.

Warden then walked over to Hatori.

"You sure are full of yourself. Arlen and I wanted to see how good you really are. You up to it?"

[Hatori]

Hatori turned just a bit hearing Warden.

“Hmm like a test or something?" He said as he scratched the top of his head as he chuckled. “I guess, but if you do anything please don’t make it lame.. You did say you where in a hurry did you not?." He said as he sighed. He slowly jumped off his horse and turned towards Carrie.

“Hmm ...I haven't met you out of the bunch. The Name's Hatori!" He said in a happy-go-lucky voice. When he was finished introducing himself he turned towards Vennessa and smirked.

“It’s been how long? 8, 9 years since I last saw you? Miss Vennessa Mora, the wondering warrior. " He said in a low whisper as he paused in front of her a small smile across his face as he looked at her. Hatori’s eyes flashed as he slowly tilted his head back towards Warden and Arlen once more. “hmm..”<br>

[faith]

She slides from her protectors arms as she looked as if going back to the horse. Her mind had a different plan though. She quickly got her little pack and heading into the forest. She was heading for the town to look at what she had gotten from all these people.

She smiles as she makes her ways through the forest. She been through it many times and knew her way well. The small girl's eyes still held her tiredness as she slowed down. The small pitter, patter from the small shoes stoped as she sat under a tree. The feeling that someone wrong was about to happen pulled on her.

The land was clear and nothing was to be of sight. But the feelign stayed. SHe laid down using her pack as a pillow from the rough ground she yawned and soon was asleep. The little once was hard to spot from any direction unless from above.

[Yume]

Out of no where from behind the tree Yume appeared. Her bluish green eyes glowing as she looked at fayth. “Hello there! Did you get all the things you want?" Yume said as she jumped out from behind the tree where Fayth was laying.

The look of surprise could be seen upon Fayths face as Yume jumped out from no where.

“Don’t worry I wont ruin your fun...I’m just like you." Yume smiled as she turned seeing her tiger come out of the shadows as well. “Don’t be afraid of her. She’s a softy once you get to know her. Oh by the way, my name is Yume what’s yours if I may ask?" Yume said as she stood there looking down at Fayth.

[faith]

She looked at her. Thinking of the perfect place to strike if needed. Yet, she was not making the mood feel threaten. Something else was out there.

Slowly getting up and grabbing her bag, it was now time to get back to heading towards the town. She kept an ear out for the other girl.

Tiredness lingered around her as her steps slowly moved. She was still angry with the woman for waking her, yet she knew she would of waken soon. The feeling of somethign coming kept getting stronger and stronger as she go closer to the town.

[Hatori]

“Can I ask you two lovely gents something, what did I do wrong?! All I did was the same thing you two just did! I don’t see you two giving a test seeing how ‘good you are ‘to Yume or anyone else here. Why am I the one being judged here out of the group?! Is it just because I have red hair? Or is it something else that makes you two so jealous?.."

He said in a sarcastic yet harsh voice, He smiled as he gently pushed a few stranded hairs out of his eyes as he looked at Warden and Arlen.

Hatori blinked as he noticed Fayth was gone and he just smirked at the thought of it.

“Hmm Can I just say one thing before you start this little test thingy of yours. Where's the little kid that you where so called protecting? "

He said as he pointed his index finger behind warden showing that Fayth was gone. Speaking of kid? Where did Yume go?
He thought as he stood there looking around him.
