Oh my goodness~!
Chapter One
"Stop!"
Slam! The door crashed back in place and shuddered on it's hinges as Zentari Quie ran out into the night, whistling for his horse. "Rodarius! Come!"
The horse trotted up slowly and threw a neigh in Zentari's direction, for he had interrupted his grazing. Rodarius is a young male horse who Zentari stole off of a ranch the year before. He's pure brown and can be quite stubborn at times. Zentari climbed up onto him and clicked his heels against the horses sides, riding off into the night, towards the Moonglint Forest. Towards his hideout. Zentari Quie is a young human, a freelance rouge. He is eighteen years of age and has short dirty blonde hair and dark blue eyes. He comes from a family of rouges, all who lived in the Moonglint forest and went into the city of Gostnaga to do their work. He never knew who his mother was, because she left his father when he was only two years old. His father was caught and executed when Zentari was fourteen years old, but he was able to train Zentari before he died. Zentari swore revenge on the judge who sentenced his father to death, and got that revenge when he was sixteen...
He took a glimpse over his shoulder to see a short, fat man struggling to climb onto a horse. The man was just a lowly farmer who recently built a small house on the outskirts of the forest. Zentari reached the forest and slowed down to take a look at what he had managed to steal before the farmer walked in on him rummaging through his stuff. "Hmm....bah, only 50 gold and a couple gold rings. And they're in pretty bad shape too. I can find more then that in one day just by walking through the city. Oh well. I sorta feel sorry for that guy."
Rodarius shook his head and made a low sound to show his boredness. Zentari sped him up a little and headed towards the cave he'd made his home. He arrived and cleared away the branches and ivy covering the opening, and dismounted his horse. He lead him inside towards the main cavern and took the saddle off of Rodarius, who then wandered over toward the pool of drinking water. Zentari walked over to a ledge in the cave wall and emptied his pack onto it, going through everything he had gotten that night. He heard a sound behind him and turned around right as someone jumped on him. "ZENNY!"
He fell to the ground and looked up, to see Jasmine Tantylus, the elf he came upon a few years ago while wandering through the city and took back to his cave. She was around 50 years of age, quite young for an elf, and looked like she was only but seventeen. She had long brown hair and beautiful blue eyes, which went along perfectly with her slender nose and lips. She usually wore gorgeous velvet robes, for they didn't constrict her too much and she could still nimbly move around and do her work. When he first found her she was being ridiculed and attacked because of her appearence. Ever since she'd been staying within the boundaries of the forest, unless she had to go into the city, during which she disguised herself and covered her ears with a hood of some sort, and always made sure to stick close to Zentari. She was fast and very skilled with a dagger, so she made an exceptional thief. She usually took on the more extravagant houses such as that of the city offcials. She once broke into the head of the city guards manor and was in and out within minutes with enough gold to support Zentari and her for a month.
"Oi, you nearly broke my arm!"
He pushed her off of him and stood up, rubbing the arm he landed on. She put on a pitiful sad face and looked at him with her head tilted down and quietly said, "I'm sowwy Zenny. But you'd been gone for so long! I was just happy to see you is all..."
He smirked but quickly hid it and went back to looking through what he got while taking off his equipment, and turned to go wash up in the pool of water. "I've only been gone an hour... Next time don't sneak up on me like that."
She did a little military stance plus salute and put a serious face on, loudly saying, "Yes sir!"
Zentari shook his head and splashed some water on his face as Jasmine looked through the stuff he brought back. "There's not much here. That new guy wasn't very wealthy was he?"
"Nope. But he caught me before I could go through much of his stuff. I sorta felt sorry him," he chuckled "but then I saw him trying to get on his horse. It was a sight to behold."
He smiled and got some food for Rodarius, laying it down infront of the horse, who immediately started eating it. Jasmine followed Zentari around asking more questions about the job, until suddenly Zentari threw a hand back to silence her and pointed towards the cave opening where they could see the light of a torch coming down the tunnel. Jasmine nodded and pulled a concealed dagger out of her robes and snuck around the edge of the cave. Zentari sat down on a rock and casually examined a throwing dagger he had on his belt. The short fat farmer emerged into the cave, and looked around, finally settling his eyes on Zentari. "You!"
The word echoed through the cave as he pointed a finger at Zentari and glared at him, but cautiously kept an eye on the knife in his hand. Zentari casually looked up and tried to look suprised. "Oh! Hello there. I see you've found my home. Make yourself at home." He motioned around the cavern.
Just then Jasmine came out from the shadows and wrapped an arm around the farmer and grazed the dagger against his neck. The farmer stiffened and slowly turned to look at Jasmine who just smiled cheerfully at him. Zentari smirked and said, "I see you've met my friend."
The farmer stared in shock, "S-she's an elf?"
Jasmine nodded cheerfully and continued smiling at the farmer, asking curiously, "What's your name stranger?"
"L-larry, ma'am." he nervously replied.
She put on a confused expression and cocked her head to one side. "That's an odd name."
Zentari stood up and walked over to them. "Enough talking. You probably came here because you want you gold back, am I right?"
The farmer stood up straight and said in a loud, strong voice, "Yes, and i'm prepared to fight for it!" He raised his fists.
Zentari laughed and put his throwing knife away, motioning for Jasmine to put away her dagger. "You can have it back. That's chump change. You can also have those worthless rings back too." He pointed towards the items over on the ledge.
The small farmer quickly waddled over to the ledge and scooped up all the stuff, putting it in his bag and quickly heading for the tunnel leading outside. Zentari motioned for Jasmine to block the tunnel and she quickly stepped in front of it. Zentari took a few long strides towards Larry and put a hand on his shoulder and felt him flinch. "Before you leave, there is one term you must agree to. You must agree to never reveal this place to abosolutely anyone. I mean anyone. Do I make myself clear?"
The farmer swallowed the lump in his throat and nodded, replying, "Y-yes sir. I u-understand completely." Zentari let go of his shoulder and Jasmine moved out of the tunnel entrance.
"Good. Now you may go." Larry nodded and ran down the tunnel as fast as his little legs would carry him.
Jasmine yelled after him, "We'll be sure to drop in and visit you sometimes! Do the same for us! If you can find us again!" She giggled and turned around to face Zentari. "I know what we'll be doing tomorrow Zenny! We need a new place to stay!" She walked off towards her branch of the cave, humming a happy tune and smiling all the time. Zentari watched her go then smiled and shook his head. He went and concealed the cave opening again, trying to make it better then before.
"Jasmine is right. We really need to find a new place we can live." He muttered to himself as he dragged himself off to his branch of the cave to try and get some sleep.
Jasmine awoke in the middle of the night to Zentari screaming, "NO! I didn't do it! No, no, no!" She grabbed her dagger and quietly walked out into the cavern. Nothing. She continued on to Zentari's private quarters and she peeked inside to see him tossing and turning in his sleep. She put down her dagger and walked up closer to see him sweating heavily.
"Zenny, wake up." She lightly poked him. He jerked awake and looked up at Jasmine and fell back onto his bedroll. Jasmine put a hand on his face. "What was going on?"
"It was just a...just a dream." he rolled over away from her and closed his eyes again. Jasmine sighed and sat down on the ground next to his bed.
"I don't believe you." She said, sounding very firm. "And i'm not leaving until you tell me what it was."
He sighed and sat up, looking at her. "Fine." He got up and walked over to his pack and pulled out a small journal, opening it to a marked page. He handed it to her to read.
Vintu 6th, 1745
I ran through the dark city, heading for the city sqaure. To the house of the judge who sentenced my father to death. I came upon the house and snuck around the back and up into the main parlor. He was reading a book and facing the opposite direction of myself. I pulled out my dagger and walked up to his chair. He moved slightly and I ducked behind a table. He didn't suspect a thing. I went up right behind his chair and said hello. He jumped and turned around. I smiled and slit his throat....he choked and slouched forward, bleeding everywhere. I took the jewels he was wearing and searched the room. I found 500 gold hidden behind some books. I quickly fled the scene and heard screams from the house as I ran. Jasmine has no idea what happened. I feel horrible...but it had to be done. I'm going to be up all night, keeping watch at the cavern entrance.
She finished reading and closed it, saying nothing. Zentari took it and put it back in his bag. He sat down infront of her and looked her in the eyes. "I did that two years ago, as you can tell from the date. I swore revenge for my father. It was he who sentenced him to death."
Jasmine turned away from him and started to cry. "How could you. He was an innocent man, he was just doing his job."
"I know...it was...it was the wrong thing to do. But it was my father who he sentenced to die. I couldn't sit idly by and do nothing....You understand...right?"
She wiped away her tears and nodded slowly, "Yes...I understand. I just wish you'd told me before."
Zentari moved over and embraced her, "I'm sorry..but I was afraid of how you would react." She smiled and rested in his arms.
"You think i've never had to injure anyone on a raid? I mean, i've never killed anyone, but i've mortally injured people..." She looked him straight in the eyes, "Don't worry about it. I forgive you for commiting murder. Hmm... I never thought i'd say that." She put on a confused expression.
Zentari laughed and let go of her, standing up and helping her up. "It's probably close to sunrise by now, so i'm going to fix something to eat. You can go sleep if you want. I'll wake you when it's ready."
"No, i'll stay up. I don't think I could fall back asleep now. I'm to hyper now. Besides. I don't want you to kill me while I sleep!" She skipped off to her room to change into her normal clothes. Zentari smiled and put on his equipment and boots and walked into the main cavern. Rodarius was sleeping in the exact spot he was last night after Zentari gave him his food, except now Jasmine's horse Radiant was close by. Radiant, a pure white, female horse, was also quite young, and was stolen off the same ranch as Rodarius, on the same day. She probably came over to eat after Zentari went to bed. Jasmine came out into the main cavern while fixing her hair and walked over to where Zentari was standing. "So whatcha gonna make?"
Zentari looked through what they had, and came across a couple eggs and a few slices of bread. "Ehh...I guess eggs and toast. That's all we have. I guess we'll have to go into the city and acquire ourselves some more food today, eh?" Jasmine smiled brightly and headed off to start a fire.
"I guess so!" she gathered up some small pieces of wood and put them in the makeshift fire pit they'd been using for years. She muttered something Zentari couldn't hear. When he turned around he saw a small orange orb come out of her hands and ignite the wood.
"What was that?!" he exclaimed, staring at the fire.
"What was what? You mean the spell?"
"Uhh....yeah, I guess. How'd you do that?"
"It's just a little something i've been studying. Nothing that big really."
"Nothing that big? Uhh....I think it is! Where did you learn that? And could I do it?"
"It's in a book I got from my mom before I left. You might be able to do it. I guess you'll have to try to find out."
"Uhh, I guess so." He cracked the eggs into the pan and held it over the fire.
"I'll go get it!"
"That girl is too hyper sometimes." He shook his head and flipped the eggs. He grabbed another pan and set the bread in it, holding that above the fire also. "I want one of those fancy stoves i've seen in houses. Then I wouldn't have to hold the pan the whole time. Oh well." he muttered to himself. Jasmine soon came back into the main cavern holding a big, old, book.
"Here it is! Take a look through it." She said, setting it down and taking the pans from Zentari.
Zentari picked it up and opened it, flipping through the pages. "Uhh...Jasmine, this is all in elven. I can't read elven."
"I know! Neither can I." She casually said keeping an eye on the food. "There's one page I marked in there that's in english. It's got two spells on it. The one I used earlier to light the fire, and one about summoning a dog or something. That one's too complicated for me."
"Okay then...ah, here's the page you're talking about." He read through both the instructions and looked up at Jasmine. "This doesn't look that hard. Here, i'll try making a fire." He gathered up some wood and put it in a pile. He kneeled infront of it and said the incantation. "Firoto ingai." A tiny spark appeared and landed on the wood, doing nothing. "Err....that didn't work too well. It made something though. I guess I need to practice."
"Yes you do. That's the same thing that happened the first time I tried." Jasmine told him, putting the eggs and toast on two plates for them. "Here you go!" she cheerily said, handing him his plate.
"Thanks." He took the toast and scooped up some eggs, taking a bite. "Blech, this is so bland. We really need some more food. And a new place to live."
Jasmine swallowed her food and made a disgusted face and nodded, taking a drink of water. "Yeah. Really. You want seconds?" She held out her plate to Zentari.
"You've got to eat something. Even if it's disgusting." He pushed it back towards her.
"Fine...but this is really disgusting. Do you think Rodarius would like it?" She looked over at the horse, who was now awake and eating his food.
"Eat it."
"But I don't wanna!"
Zentari sighed, "You need the strength if we're going to go into the city today. Just eat it. Or I'll force you to."
She put on a sad face and looked down at her plate, picking through the food. "Meanie.."

Please tell me what you think. I've already started work on chapter two. I don't expect to reach 50,000 words by the time the month ends, but i'll try. I started late though. =/
