"No, Wait!" Rhea called after them, "I'm fine you don't have to go,"

RHea sighed and looked down at Zaric,
~Still trying to figure out who it was huh?~ Rhea asked, Zaric nodded, ~It bacame kinda obvious it wasn't just any racoon when it got angry at Gaberiel for nearly killy us both.
~Do I get to say it?~ Zaric asked, Rhea smiled,
~Go ahead~
~STUPID!~ Zaric said loudly and growled again,
~That he was...Who shoots an arrow at someone for fun?~

RHea said as they continued to Her house.

Bardon ran as fast as he could go and stopped in the middle of the small village. He grabbed a ram's horn from a bag he had and took a deep shaky breathe. He blew in it, making a loud, low call hoping everyone in Vandecar heard it.

Bardon hoped everyone heard it and knew what it meant, and began heading back to Mika and Tyler.

...........from her forest
she knew it was time to choose a new leader. Saron seemed smart and quick, but she felt that he would let her personal feelings come between his duties. Danielle knew about what was going on. However she knew the villages would be merging soon.

"Danielle, danielle" She whispered through the wind

--Warehouse-->

Danielle followed the voice in the wind till she came upon Athara. Still confused, she opened her mouth to talk but closed it again, waiting for Athara to tell her why she had called her.

"Hello Danielle. I am Athara" She said in a pleasant and calm voice "I am sorry If i have woken you...I just wish to speak with you" She said holding her hands at her pelvis. "I wish to ask if you if you will do the honors of leading the village for a short time. till the villages merge. Then you and Cahoon's leader, Mika, can coincide about things, but for now we are leaderless after Jarlon so bravely deffended Mika." She reached her hand into her purlple cloak and pulled out the amulet and offered it to her. "And please don't forget to have your new member, Saron, touch the amulet. Wait and see what Pierce is like before you do the same for him...Remember, there is great power in that amulet, you are in charge of it, do not take this lightly" she said stepping back a bit to allow Danielle a moment to admire the amulet

'Me? Replacing Jarlon?' That was a big place to fill, and she wasn't sure if she was up to it. ~You'll do fine, you've coordinated enough missions to know what your doing.~ Alec reassured, ~But I-~ ~Just accept it.~ Her hand reached up awkwardly to take the amulet. "Thank you, Athara. I'll try my best." she said.

"You will do just fine my child" She smiled as she read her thoughts "You will make all of us proud." She handed her the amulet and stepped away before smiling, nodding and lieterly disappearing into the woods.

She watched as Athara's figure disappeared into the trees, a little stunned. She gripped the amulet, closed her eyes for a second and sighed, turning back toward the warehouse, and walking slowly back.

Phoenix galloped through the village. Arya pushed him go faster and
faster, then suddenly pulled the rains and stopped him. They both
gasped. Arya let out a sob, but only one. Tears flowed on her cheeks as
she let out a cry. Then there was complete silence. Arya leaned forward
in saddle and pushed her face in Phoenix' shaggy mane. Suddenly she
thought she heard something from one building. She pushed out a sword
and listened, not even breathing. Somebody was talking.

Then it was a silence again. Arya shook her head 'now you start hearing voices, huh'
She knew she had to ride back and apologize but her whole body was protesting. She let out a cry and whacked her sword into the ground.

Arya winced. She could hear a voice. She was sure it was Saron's. It
was so beautiful... she felt her heart beat faster and faster. She
couldn't stand anymore.
She slid down from Phoenix' back and hopped in from one glassless window.

Rhea and Ronan walked through the buildings of Vandecar and she lets Ronan's hand go,
"Until we are really sure this is what we want...Maybe other's shouldn't know about us," Rhea said softly,
Rhea looked arund,
"Do you see anyone?" Rhea laughed

Ronan smiled "agreed" but he gave her hand one last squeeze. "I don't know..I would yodel to call them but it sounds terrrible" he laughed

(OMG I'm laughing soooo hard! I'm crying! )

Rhea burst out laughing uncontrolabley
"Let's just search around eh?" Rhea asked still laughing

Ronan laughed harder as she did. "No seriously that is how us gyspy's call each other to come in for dinner" he grinned "haha ok"

Rhea giggled,
"Ok then, All the time I've been travelling with Gypsies and I've never heard that,"

"Really? hmm.." he laughed and followed her.

Malek wandered through on his way back to Cahoon, Toboe trotting along beside him.

(Time jumpy Jump)

*pop* (From where ever she was)

Rhea wandered around te corner of a build and spotted Malek,
"Malek!" Rhea called out and ran up behind him, "Are you okay?"

He jumped when he heard a voice behind him and laughed.
"Geez you scared me outta my skin!" He chuckled
"Yeah I'm fine except for my heart attack you gave me. How you doin'?" He asked, laughing.

Rhea laughed,
"Im fine, doin better, I am with every second that passing," Rhea smiled and placed a hand on his shoulder, "Are you sure you're okay? You've been there for when we I was handling this the hardest and I kinda shut you out...I'm really sorry about that,"

He shrugged and put his hand on hers.
"Hey it's alright. I understand. Not offended or anything." He grinned at her in his usual happy manor.

Rhea cocked her head to one side and looked in his eyes, trying to see if he was lying or not,
"But you looked so angry before..." Rhea drifted off, "Well I'm glad your doing better!" Rhea smiled.
