Aftermath of the Assassination

"Serana, get off of me. I can't breath."

"Jo? is that you? What are you doing here?"

"I ws following you. I thought I could help."

"Help me?" she started to laugh, but relized that Jo was serious.

"Yes! Now WILL you get off of me?"

"Oh, sorry." She rolled off of Jo and asked,"Do you even know what you're trying to help with?"

"No, but it looked important."

"Arcon has been attacked in the northern forest. I am going to his aid."

"Then let me join you," pleaded JO.

"No, Jo. I know your motives are good, but...but...well..Things always happen when you try to help."

"Look, I've changed. REALLY! I won't be any trouble. Look, I even have a weapon," she said as she began to fish around her waist.

Serana jumped back in alarmed anticipation as Jo produced a small bladed knife, a look of pride on her face. "See?"
"I see, Jo. Now put it away before I get hurt."

"So, can I go with you?"
"Okay, I don't know what else to do with you. You may as well come, but be quiet and stay to the shadows. We have no way of knowing what we might encounter."

The two girls resumed their trek as Jo stepped on a fallen branch which made a resounding CRACK. "SHHHHHHH!"Serana whispered urgently.

In little time they made it to the edge of the encampment. The fires were dying and they could just make out Arcon's tent in the dim light. The place seemed deserted. "Serana, I don't think anyone is here," whisperd Jo.

"You may be right, but we must be careful. It could be a trap. Stay here while I look around." Serana crouched low and cautiously approached the king's tent. She listened, holding her breath, waiting for the slightest movement.

Then suddenly she felt a hand drop onto her shoulder and she jumped. She turned to face her opponent and.... "Jo, what are you doing? I told you to stay put!" Without another word she yanked back the tent flap to reveal...nothing. It was empty. "Come on, they must have gone back to the palace," she said as she spun on her heels.Jo followed closed behind as they headed in the general direction of the castle.

Little did Jo know that this was the beginning of a journey like none she had ever been on before.
