HANS


The three men made there way through the forest, trying desperately to find some trail of friend or foe. Many of the tracks and trails they found were days old, and lead to dead ends. As the day wore on Hans spirits fell, it seemed they wouldnt find Kamelin or Lucan. As the sun set the forest began to grow dark, and it was decided that it be best to make camp and continue the search tomorrow.

As hans sat before the small camp fire, he watched the small flames flicker and jump. He could hear Jerry talking away about some whore house he'd been to, and Bill adding his two cents as well. But Hans mind was not there, again as he stared at the fire his mind drifted back to Kamelin. Her features were burned into his mind, the way she walked, the way she smelled, and the way she looked at him. As those things, plus many more burned in his mind. Hans could not grasp the feelings or desires he had, but he knew they were true, but in the back of his mind he feared what could happen.

As he snaped out of his thoughts he looked up to see that his two friends were fast to sleep, and that the moon was high in the sky. Hans was suprised he'd been in thought so long, but he quickly fell to sleep with thoughts about tomorrow.

That morning found the three men on the trail of some fresh tracks. These tracks were a little over a day old but it brought hope. As they made there way deeper into the forest the tracks grew in number. Jerry halted them and turned his horse to Hans and Bill. " We better equip ourselves mates, I have a feeling its rough up ahead." The three men dismounted and equiped themselves in full battle armor. The men wore the armor of the Mercenary army of Lansing, and they looked like profesional soldiers as they mounted up. "Like old times Hans" saod Bill. Hans laughed, "Yes, like old times".

A few short hours latter the men came acorss the bodies of two dead goblins. They had arrows in them, but it was decided that they had been shot further off and ended up here. As Bill examined the bodies he remarked " These arrows are Elf made Hans" Hans and Jerry both dismounted and looked. " Thats them Bill" said Hans, excitment in his voice. Jerry gave Hans a stern look, "You best watch yourself Hans, remember what happened to you because of them." Bill added " Yeah, and they might be willing to kill ya for that natter too." Hans shook his head and walked off mumbleing to himself. The two other men looked at eachother and bursted off into laughter, for they knew Hans was in love but that he didnt see ot yet. An hour latter the men came to a snall clearing, only to find the area littered with dead goblins, pearced with arrows. Hans jumped off his horse and started yelling Kamelin's name. "Shut the hell up Hans" snaped Jerry "Your bound to wake the dead and bring more of these bastards around" Hans didnt care he kept yelling her name, in hopes that she would respond.

 

[Slance]

Lucan sat there bruised,cut,hungery,tired wella t least I'm not poisend he thought like Kamelin feeling sorry for her he ahd other feelings mabey he couldn't tell he felt the same for all lady's that there goddesses pretty much then again he heard some one calling he let an arrow go but as he let it go hearing it was Hans voice and it flew way off course luckly he saw Hans scrambling up the hill when he saw Lucan.

 

[Lady Bliss]

Kamelin drifted in and out of conshesness... she thought at one point that she saw Lucan grab up his bow .... at another point she thought she saw Han's then two other men she didnt know.....but was still to tired and weak to really care at that point who was there....

HANS


As Hans called out he noticed a small cave above him. "Thats where they must be" Hans said to himself. As he made his way to the cave an arrow shot wide of him. "Damnit" Hans yelled, as he fell to the ground. Hans truned his head to see that Bill and Jerry were trying to flank the cave. "Stay down" yelled Bill. "to hell with that " thought Hans. Hans jumped up, and sprinted towards the cave, shield in front.

As he reached the cave entrance, he saw Lucan standing there, bow in hand. Hans did not say a word, but gave Lucan an angry stare. Then he saw Kamelin slumped against the cave wall. Before Hans could ask Lucan what had happen to Kamelin, Bill and Jerry entered the cave, swords drawn they aproached Lucan. "Your a real bastard" yelled Bill, as he looked at Lucan. " I think we ought to shoot a few arrows at your ass, hell I say we waste the worthless elf" said jerry as he pointed his sword at Lucan. Hans saw the look in Lucan's eyes and knew the elf was at his breaking point. If he didnt stop those two, Lucan was going to show them what an elf can do.

Hans pushed Jerry out of the way and drew his own sword. " I say enough" yelled Hans. " He didnt know if we were friend or foe, and he was also trying to protect a wounded women" Bill lowered his sword, and let out a long sigh. " Ok Hans, you win, no need to shed blood over a simple mistake" Jerry gave Hans a long look then shook his head and sheaved his sword as well. " I cant figure you out Hans, why do you even care about their kind" said Jerry, as he walked back outside.

Hans turned back to Lucan and gave him a sly grin, then pated him on the shoulder. " Its ok Lucan" said Hans as he tried to calm the elf down. Hans made his way over to Kamelin, and knelt down next to her. He ran his hand across her face softly, and noticed she held his bracelet tightly in her hand. Bill leaned over Hans shoulder and grined. " I'll say one thing Hans, you sure know how to pick em" Hans stood back up and looked at Bill, then said " cut the jokes Bill and help me carry her out of here"
The two men carried Kamelin out of the cave with Lucan following from behind. Hans could see the elf was scaning the woods, he didnt have a peace about the area, this worried Hans.

 

[Lady Bliss]

Kamelin still weak awoke to find herself bounceing around on in front of some one on a horse for a moment she didnt know where she was or what had happend she could also feel the contained hostility between Lucan and two others. two others she tought an attack ..Kamelin started to struggle and fight.......and just as Hans got her calmed down and she reolized where she was and that it was Hans that held her..... she said " you came..... " and passed back out.
Lucan mean while was eating and explaining to Hans and his compaions what he new of what had happend, he told them about the Orc's the Goblins and the spider, he wasnt sure when Kamelin had found him or how she'd gotten him into the cave. but told them about her having been poisened by the dart, and why he had shot an arrow at them.

HANS


As they made their way through the forest Lucan told them what had happened to him and what he knew of Kamelin's troubles. Hans could still feel tention between Lucan and his friends, but he hoped in time that would go away. As they moved along Hans noticed that Kamelin stired, then without warning she began to fight him on his mount. Hans calmed her down by gently speaking to her, and running his hand over her face. Kamelin noticed him and smiled, shortly after she fell back to sleep.

Hans smiled, these strange feelings inside made him feel like a new man. It had been a long time since he cared for a women, even longer since his heart felt warm inside. Latter that night as he sat before the fire he kept a watchful eye on Kamelin, he stared at her, his eyes drinking in her features. The others were asleep, and Hans was on watch, but his mind wasn't on that, but on other things.

As Kamelin stired, Hans moved over and sat besided her, keeping an ever watchful eye on her. When she woke a short time latter, Hans gave her a soft smile, letting down his guard and showing her his softer side. She stared at him, as if she was trying to read his mind. " I told you I would come back" said Hans, as he gently laid his hand on hers. Her weak smile brought a tear to his eye, and he quicly turned, not wanting her to see him weak. When he gained his composure he again turned to her. " I know your weak kamelin, and your thoughts are not straight, but you need to tell me whats going on" Hans said in a soft spoken voice. Hans again held her hand and continued " I cant help you if I dont know whats going on, and if you want me at your side then you need to be truthful with me" Hans took a deep sigh, then hung his head, for he didnt know how to tell her how he truly felt.

 

[Slance]

Lucan was sitting there dreaming elven dreams... tranceing as some people called it in tranceing you can haer whats happend around you and you can wake up instatly he was hearing Hans talking alittle blured but that was probly his human side of course like always in a trance he had his hands in his robes on the hilts of his swords he was ready if any body attacked Kamelin... or Hans he would leap up.

 

[Lady Bliss]

Kamelin thought a moment about how to tell Hans what he wanted but wods were slow in comming becuse she wasnt thinking strate. Hans started to turn away when she said.

" my.....my village was attacked..... my twin brother was taken in my place...... they....thought he.... was me. two moons ago in the woods i came upon a strange .... gem ... i was supprised by it because i didnt recognize .....it s type..as much trading as our people do with dwarves......it struck me as odd. so i took ittwo the councel.....they didnt ...know ither.....so.....so..we maily i began to ask around about it.........then.....they came....these strange creatures...they could change there shape... i wasnt there when they came...... One of the elders in the village said that they called my name and searced the village.... until they found my brother and took him. .......the elder said they asked him for the stone.....and sence my brother didnt have it simply said he gave it away......the creature said show me.... and they were gone........" so here i am...and..

Kamelin began to cry it all my fault if only id left the stone where it was none of this would have happend.... my brother may die now because of me or may already be dead.......ither way i have to know....there may still be the slightest chance....or maybe i am just a fool to dare hope. "

kamelin looked up at Hans she wanted to ask him to hold her and tell her that everything would be fine but she new she couldnt she didnt know how he felt he was very well garded when it came to his emotions... even she had a harde time telling.....still for amoment before when she first woke up she thought she saw something.......but dare she hope there too.....

 

[Lady Bliss]

a few days later Kamelin was much better she was able to set up now and move around some.
most of her time was spent going over everything that had happened at her village with Lucan, Hans and the others. as well as gathereing as much herbs and things with Lucen as she could in order to have every thing she needed Incase of wounds, poisns ect.......

Sence she awoke she had been introduced to Bill, and Jerry she senced something there with those to a slight hostiliy twords her kind, and she couldnt blame them if they were with Hans and had known him at the time........ well she could understand why they would feel the way they do.

Off and on durring the day she would paus in what ever she was doing and wach Hans with his friends or with Lucan, he was a good man she thought....but was affaid he would see any attempt she made as a trick or someting because of what had happend before with her kind, she enjoyed how ever talking with him at night after the others had fallen asleep about anyting and nothing inperticular....

Hans

Hans had decided, with the advice of Bill to stay away from the town of Harren, and to push on to the costal city of Pannatell. The trip was takeing longer then normal because they had decided to cut through the forest rather then use the main roads. The days passed slow, and often Hans caught Kamelin stareing at him. Many a time he would warmly smile at her, or give her a wink, but also there were times when his features were cold and harsh.

At nights he would find himself talking to Kamelin for hours around the fire, not of issues of importants, but of dreams and memory's. He found himself telling her of his childhood, about his life as a farm boy before he joined as a mercenary. He would tell her stories of past battles and the many times he tempted deaths hand. Kamelin would just sit there, quiet and peaceful, but in her eyes he saw that he had her total attention. As he lay at night he would dwell on her features, her eyes, that inocent smile, and the soothing feeling he felt when she talked. He was full of emotions and feelings that he had surpressed for so long, and it scared him. He knew that once his heart gave in, that there would be no turning back, and the memory's inside him were determind not to let that happen. The constant battle inside his heart and mind were wearing Hans down mentally, and sometimes it showed when he talked to Kameline.

As they neared the city of Pannatell, Hans spirts were uplifted. The thoughts ran through his mind of past trips to costal citys. The fresh salt air, the open markets, and constant flow of people and goods. Hans had hoped to find something special in Pannatell, something to give to Kamelin. As they rode down the main road to Pannatell, Jerry rode up beside him. Jerry gave a cool look to Kamelin then looked at Hans. " Hans, mind if I speak to you in private for a moment?" said Jerry. Hans was taken back by this request, but nodded in agrement. Jerry and Hans trotted off the main road and stoped. Jerry looked at Hans and let out a deep sigh. "Hans, how long have we been friends" asked Jerry. Hans thought for a moment, then repllied, "Almost five years Jerry." Hans gave him a questionable stare. Jerry continued" Hans in those years, have I not always been there for you, given you advice, kept you out of harms way" Hans nodded in response to his question. " Then take my advice now, and stay away from that elf if you wish to keep on living" Before Hans could respond Jeryy spured his horse back to the main road, leaving Hans dumbfounded by what had just happened.

Hans slowly took his time in rejoing the party on the road, his thoughts and feelings in total disarray. He hung back from everyone as they neared Pannatell, he was angry inside again, the rage witch had melted over the past few days now held a firm grip on him.. Kamelin must have sensed this, for she had avoid him since the conversation with Jerry. Had Bill said something to her while he talked with Jerry? "What are those two up to" Hans thought to himself. Are they scheming something, or are they just concerned for me. Hans shruged these thoughts off as they entered the city. Hans had decided to rid these concerns over some ale, in fact he had decided to get piss drunk.

Bill and Jerry stated they need to take care of some business and would meet latter at the Tavern. Hans looked at Lucan and Kamelin and shruged his shoulders, "Well, I off too, I hope you can find your way around." said Hans as he started off towards the bar. The look Kamelin gave him struck deep in his heart. Her eyes held a sad look, and he could feel she wanted to say something. Hans wanted badly to hold her and take away her sadness, but his anger rose inside him again and he spurted "Dont look at me like that Kamelin, were not ment to be" With that being said Hans stomped off into the tavern, but as he walked away his heart cried, it cried because he truly did care, and he truly wanted to love her.

 

[Lady Bliss]

Kamelin was shocked she hadnt reolized that her emotions showed so clearly on her face......at least now she new how he felt. His past anger was too grate for him to over come no matter how different she was from the others. she turned to Lucan Lets go she said

 

[Slance]

Lucan stared dumbfouned as Hans waked inside the pub if any body else had said that to a lady he would of already had hte guy up the side of the wall threatning to kill him but Lucan was dumbfounded by what Hans had said. Did he mean as in love Lucan had seen they had become god friends almost as good as Hans was with those two imbusuls but love he hadn't sensed that. Lucna heard Kamelin say. "Lets go." Lucan said in a stiff/angery tone. "Yes lets." As he rode he sipped his flask thinking and all of sudden he reared his horse and rode back towards the pub.

 

[Roughneck]

Hans

As Hans steped into the tavern, he felt his anger melt away and felt a sence of peace fall over him. His body relaxed at the sight of drunken men and beer wenches, the loud laughter drowning out his thoughts. He saw a small table near the side of the tavern and heaed for it, grabing a seat he he called over to one of the females that worked there.

She turned and smiled at him, then came over to see what he wanted. "Give me some ale, in fact line me up three" said Hans. The women gave him a questinable look, then said" Are you planing on becoming like these drunks here" Hans gave a sheepish grin, then nodded in responce. The women laughed as she truned from him to retrive his order. "Ah, it feels good in here" Hans said to himself, proping hes feet up on the table. Hans leaned back in his seat and looked over the Tavern. " I bet a man could make some money in this city, I could really showcase my skills here" Hans thought to himself. Then the grin on Hans face was replaced, with a sadden look.

He rememdered the promise he made to Kamelin, and the story she told of her brother. Hans realized that her need was far greater then his own. Hans was lost in his thoughts, and didn't even see the women lay his ale down. "Cant get drunk stareing into the heaven's" said the women. Hans looked over to her and laughed, " your right, I best get my agenda straight." With that Hans stood up and threw a gold coin on the table. " forget the ale, give it to someone else" Hans said as he made his way toward the door. As he neared the door he felt a hand on his shoulder, "Leaveing so soon" said a strange voice. Hans turned around and looked at the stranger. " Do I know you, I think not so I kindly ask you to take your hands off me" Hans tone held not just anger, but a warning. The man laughed, then turned his head "Boy's he doesn't like to be touched" Five men at a table began to laugh, then one of them yelled, " I bet if ye was an elf he'd like ya" This statement brought more laughter from the men.

Hans anger was riseing, but he was determined not to fall prey to it. Again Hans turned to leave, but this time the stranger pushed him to the ground. " I dont think your leaveing. . . Hans"
Hans hit the ground hard, but when he heard the man say his name the feelings of dreed hit harder. Hans stood up, looking at the man with intrest, but holding back his anger. "who might you be, that you know my name" asked Hans. The stranger grined, his roten teeth showing in his smile. "Well lets just say I know more then I care to tell." his tone mocking Hans. Hans could see the man was not going to be friendly, he also noticed that the men at the table had gotten up. Hans watched as they made their way through the tavern, forming a loose circle around him. The strange man continued, " I think its time we have a talk, and discuss what you know, and to the whereabouts of those Elfs." With that the man threw a small bag of gold to the floor. " That should be a good modivational starter" sneered the man.
By this time the Tavern had become quiet, as everybody in the room watched with intrest. The atmosphere in the Tavern was tense, the tension building with every second. Hans looked at the man, then bent down to pick up up gold. " Ah, wise choice Hans" said the man, but before he could go on, Hans had smashed the mans facewith the bag of gold.

Hans busted the mans nose and knocked many of his teeth out. Blood poured from the mans face when he yelled. "Kill Him" That would be the last words he would yell, for at that moment Hans shoved his sword deep in the mans belly, looking into the mans eyes Hans said " See you in hell, you bastard" Throwing the man to the floor Hans turned to face the on comming foes. Hans grined as he looked at the odds, "Five to one" he thought. Just then one of the men attacked, his swing clumsy and miss timed. Hans blocked his swing, grabing the man by the throat, then turning him around, Hans shoved his sword onto the mans back, and through his chest. The attacker slumped to the floor as Hans pulled his sword out, gurgling sounds coming from the dead mans throat.
The remaining four men looked confused, they hadn't expected this to happen. "Come now, it's four of ya's, and only me" taunted Hans. "Get him" yelled one of the men. This time all four attacked at once, not wanting to make the same mistakes their comrad had made. At this time people were rushing out of the Tavern screaming and yelling, many yelling "fight" and "murder." Hans fought with pure anger and hatred inside, and didnt fell the wounds he was getting from his attackers. He slowly managed to back himself into a corner of the tavern, traping himself and any chance of escape. His attackers realized this too and closed the circle tighter. "Prepare to die traitor" said one man. "Yeah, get ready to meet death" said another.

 

[Lady Bliss]

Kamelin wasnt sure what to think as Lucan turned hus horse around and bolted back to the tavern, and people started running out some yelling fight others murder.......now what she thought...Kamelin could seeLucan he was trying to get inside......should i stay hrer ortry to get in and help???decisions....hummm. iter way someone will be hurt and need help i d better go..Kamlin turned her horse around and went to help Lucan get inside..

 

[Slance]

The door burst opend as Lucan walked in a arrow already coming from his bow it hit one of the men perfectly in the back of the throguht Lucna knew he couldn't do that again unless her got the eliment of surprise again. 2 of the remaining men turned around to hold there wepons at length. Lucan shouted. "Come now whats worth dieing for?" One of the men who was holding a long sword jumped forward and Lucan cutting his hand bad grabbed the sword and yanked it away and Lucan in one swift movement made the hilt fly in to his bleeding hand.The man was still in shock of it being yanked from his hand as Lucan jumped forward slicing a large cut along the mans chest wounding him but not killing him. Another man jumped forward holding a small ax and cut Lucans shoulder as Lucan saw Hans lung at one of the men in the back. Lucan raised the sword for another attack as he heard some one hurry in to the tavern.

[Lady Bliss]

Kamelin came into the tavern in time to see Lucan swing a sword into his blooded hand.... and Hans lunge at one of the men surrounding him... she saw 2 to 3 bodies laying slain upon the ground.
she moved back into the shadows so as to stay out of the way until the fight was finnished. so that then she could help the engered.....but as she moved back into the shadows she heard her name....." Kamelin..where is it ... the stone...give it to us...join us...our master could use you..."

as Kamelin heard the voice she drew her dagger from inside her sleave and turned to strike...but she was stoped her arm was held it seemed by a man but the eyes something about the eyes held her something deadly and evil...Kamelin didnt think she could move. " what are you???" she asked. " The stone Kamelin.... the stone...

Kamelin heard her name... and was suddenly released by the creature as one of Lucan's arrows went flying by her head and hit the man. the man changed his shape into the form of a small dragon and flew out the window. Kamelin's dagger fell to the floor and she went to her nees....trying to clear her head.. she could hear Hans...talking to her and Lucan to...but couldnt quit hear what they were saying.....

 

[Roughneck]

HANS

Hans grited his theeth, he knew he was cornered, but he wasn't going to die without a fight. Just then of of the men let out a scream and fell foward, an arrow lodged in his back. Hans saw it was Lucan, and felt a great sense of relief come over him. The other men now turned to see who this new foe was, and Hans took this moment to make his move. He drove his sword into one of the mens chest, the shock and pain brought a scream of fear from the man as he fell to the ground.

Within a few short moments, Hans and Lucan made quick work of the remaining two men. Hans, cut and bruised, walked over to Lucan and gave him a pat on the shoulder. "Thankyou Lucan, I owe you one" said Hans. Hans noticed though that Lucan was not paying him attention, instead he saw the man turn and draw his bow, shooting an arrow towards Kamelin. Hans was confused, but wasted no time in thinking as he followed Lucan over to Kamelin. " What the hell is that" Hans said, as he saw a small beast fly out the window. He directed his attention back to Kamelin, and saw she was dazed. Hans shook he, but she did not respond, instead she mumbled words that made no sense.

Hans looked over to Lucan and said " Lets get her out of here, and quick" With that both men grabed Kamelin and draged her out of the Tavern, heading towards the horses. " Lucan, we need to get out of here, this place is not safe" said Hans as he threw Kamelin over his horse. Hans mounted up and turned to Lucan. " Grab the reigns to her horse and follow me" Through the back streets and allys they went, Hans not sure where he was going, but not willing to take the time tp find out. Before long they ended up at the west gate of the city, there he stoped his horse and dismounted. Again Hans looked at Kamelin, but saw no improvement in her eyes.

Walking off a ways he cursed and screamed, his rage was not against Kamelin or Lucan, but at himself. Hans took a deep breath and motioned Lucan over. "Lucan" began Hans, " We need to find Kamelins brother and end this nightmare once and for all" Hans paused then continued, " We have to find Kamelins village and speak to her elders, they will be able to direct us to these men." Hans pulled out a small dagger, and held the blade. " Lucan, make a pack with me right now, that we dont stop till we find her brother and send these bastards to hell" AS Hans spoke those words he griped the blad tightly, cutting into his hand. Lucan grabed the blad as well , and both men smiled. " To the death Lucan " said Hans as both mens blood mixed, sealing their pack and their fate.

 

[Lady Bliss]

Kamelin mean while was lost in her mind she couldnt seem to think strate...she new what was going on around her but couldnt seem to get her thoughts together in order to make sence... she just kept thinking The Stone...

some how she had to let Lucan Know that she needed to shut herself off for a time inorder to heal and fix what ever that creature had done to her.....but there was always a danger in shutting ones self off.... something was always forgotten a memory wether it be a short term memory loss or long depended upon how long one shut them selves off and the damage done.

 

[Slance]

Lucan saw the dagger and heard the words he didn't under stand it he hated most men and he tried to make that clear but Hans just didn't relent and... that was admrable about the most admrable thing Lucan had seen a person do as far as other people go Hans wasn't bad and he was working to the same goal as Lucan and a good one so Lucan thought Hans had passes the test for the time being. As he gripped the blade he also gripped his whistle the present from his ranger master the thing that was his battle cry the thing that he let nobody touch he said to Hans. "A blade is all well but it is not permonent." HE said then he handed him the whistle with the ingraved letters "LI" In gothing righting and said. "I will not take this back untill we have compleated the task." And he jumped on his horse and held Kamelins horses rains and got ready.

 

[Roughneck]

HANS

Hans exceoted the gift, not sure as to what to say. He nodded to Lucan and mounted his horse. "Lucan, you must lead the way, for I know not where her village lies" said Hans, fear in his voice. Inside Hans knew he was taking a risk going into an Elf village, but that risk had to be made on behalf on Kamelin. Hans was now steadfast to the cause, he was going to do something right for once, he was going to help someone, rather than help himself. As they departed the city Hans held his hand on Kamelin, she still was dazed and looked like her mind was lost. Hans turning to Lucan asked" Do you think one of the elders or maybe a mage could help her out, Im afraid her current condition will only hinder us"

 

[Slance]

Lucan laughs stiffly. "If I can get there I ahv nothing to do with elves besides my mother and my master but I can kind of sense them I think but as for her hindering us I've had worse and you look and act like a exarnced adventurer and you've probly had wose I almost left a gnome named Gerrbo who was petrefied from a spell." Lucan laughs agian stiffly. "We'll just have to bit our lip and get through." Lucan continued to ride making his way to the outer rim of a forest.

 

[Lady Bliss]

Kamelin awoke 2 days latter... as she looked around she rememberd Lucan..and Hans but couldnt remember why she was with them....as she gased at there surroundings she recognized that they were close to her village...Hans cant go there she thought ...the others would be unkind...she noticed that again she was monted infront of Hans..

" Hans .....she said....Hans almost droped her supprised that she was back....'wow Kamelin said as Hans barley caught her. and laughed... i am sorry i should have moved or gave you some sign i was better before i spoke....i didnt mean to startle you..she said as she stoped laughing and smiled......um why are we going to my village and please forgive me..its probably only a short memory loss but i dont remember why i am here except that it has to do with a stone...........

Lucan road up beside them he was smiling and Kamelin remembered what Hans had said before going into the tavern. ( dont look at me that way Kamelin it cant work between us) Kamelin turned to Lucan smiling and asked " Lucan your wounds and Hans are they healed...?... i mean are you both well? " She didnt know how she was supposed to feel. she didnt want to stay away from Hans but he himself had made it clear that it wouldnt work....Her thoughts after that began to return to the man /creature that had held her.....what was he?????
