Ben

he starts snickering and falls out of the tree. "oof!" he said rubbing his behind

Hendric

"oh.. i didn't notice..." he said and looked at his leg and shoulders. " i forgot that i was wounding..."

" You should rest. " She said. " To let the wounds heal. "

Ben

he chuckled and sat under the tree. "ysss my ship is working!" he whispered to himself with a massive wolfish grin on his face.

Hendric

"of course your highness." he bowed and went back to the fire and knelt staring at the flames.

" can you call me...by my name? We're not really...at the castle right now. "

Ben

"oh. my. gosh!" he started laughing hysterically and started rolling around

Hendric

he visible straightened were he was as if you had just suggested for him to kill the king.

Ben

"My God! Gemini, i don't think he would call you by your name even if you threatened him with death!" he continued laughing hysterically.

" it was just...a suggestion. Not an order. " She said, a hint of sadness in her voice.

Hendric

he breathed in as if about to say something when he jumped up and tackled you to the ground after he kicked dirt over the fire. "shhh" he said his blue eyes glowing slightly in the dark. "ben. stay here with The Queen. DO NOT let anything happen to her or i will have your head." you hear the 'twang' of an arrow being released and a grunt from Hendric. "i'll be as quick as possible. saddle the horses and be prepared to swim across the river when i give the word." he hissed and he got up and went towards were the sound had come from. something wet was on your cheek.

Ben

"******" ben cursed and quickly saddled the horses. "funny though... he courts death like many nobles court pretty women. he seems too eager to 'sheath the sword' as we call it..." he whispered as he saddled the horses. "but how did he know they were their? i can't see ******! its too dark!" he said. and as he said that you realised you could see the area around you as if it were dusk!

She swiftly stood up. " I can see, somewhat. " She whispered. " They most likely found us from the fire..." She said, walking over to her horse and helping to saddle it.

Ben

"possibly. So um.. Gemini.. do you like hendric or was i just being a jerk?" he asked quietly as he finished saddling his horse and started on his own. making sure that the small post and pans he had would make no noise and were securely attached.

She blushed red. " W-w-well i-i..." She stammered.
