OOC: Yes, he's back from the pit that built on sf3 with his name on it...
Gem I sighed as I moved through the streets of Adurna. My master, Lord Dinma, the ruler of the town closest to the border line of the elven forest had sent me to do a few things for him.
I hate living this life, I thought. My life used to be so much better.
I knew that there was nothing good about this place at all. I missed my home back in one of the other towns. It had been a good life back then, but now there was nothing that I could do to go back home. I knew that this was my life now.
The life of a slave. Something I had a hard time coping with.

Javrena
The golden haired girl was looking around cautiously, her bow and arrows in their quiver. "Oi, Jeb," she whispered to her friend, the chaos causer. The two had always tried distinguishing one from the other. She was the troublemaker, he, the chaos causer. Not that anyone else called them that. Mostly people just called them swear words. Or worse; brought their mothers into it.
Jeb
"Yeah?" he asked, moving up a bit more from where he was positioned in a low limb of a tree. On the one above him was Javrena, her light hair hanging down in waves, reminding him of sunlight. "What is it?"
Javrena
"Possible target spotted. Girl moving through the streets. Apparently preoccupied. Likely to step into trap in under two minutes." she said, in a voice barely below a mutter, just loud enough for her partner in trouble and occasionally crime to hear her.
Jeb
"Get her in my sights... Three..." the two jumped down from the tree, "two..." they each grabbed pies and moved through the crowd... "ONE!" They threw the pies at Gem, twin grins on their faces. "PIE FIGHT!" Suddenly, several other boys and girls ran out of their houses and shops, each with at least one pie, some balancing three and splattering each other with the treats.
Javrena
"Here you go!" the girl said, handing Gem a pie. "Go ahead, choose who you want to throw it at. Jeb or me, either one or none!"

Gem managed to dodge one thrown by a guy in a tree above her, but the one from the girl hit her. She caught the second one thrown to her and sent it back at the guy, hitting him in the face. Oh how she missed having fun.
"Thanks but I cannot stay for long."
But how could she resist having a little fun at the moment. If the town gaurds turned up though, she would have to dissappear and quickly. She was after all a slave. That was something that really sucked for her. Same went if anyone loyal to Lord Dinma saw her.

"Well, not long isn't the same as not at all! Plus, we know areas where no one will tattle on anyone else. Mostly because they're afraid of he same thing happening to them." he said, laughing just before the pie hit him full in the face, filling his mouth with blueberries.
Jeb pulled it off and swallowed the sweet fruit, then looked down, blue in the face. "Hey! No throwing my own pie at me! I'm tempted to eat the things even when they're on the ground. Putting it straight onto my face just makes it worse. Plus, mom will kill me if I eat it. She said, "Do not eat this pie!" so I can't. Therefore, no throwing this pie at me." the brown-haired boy said jokingly, then dropped it on top of Javrena's head.
Javrena
"Jeb, if you value your life, refrain from dropping your mom's pie on me. She makes it incredibly well, which translates into annoying stains for me." she said, though she was smiling. "So what's your name, catcher of the blueberry pie?" she asked Gem, taking the pie pan off her head to block an incoming cranberry projectile.

Gemstarzah
"Names Gemstarzah Vestelle Hawksong, but most call me Gem, or Idiot." She sighed.
"Idiot on account of the fact that I happen to be a slave, though once I was a noblewoman." She knew this was not something many people knew. She tried to duck another pie but yelped as it hit the place she'd been hurt most recently.
No chance of her reprimanding the person though she wanted to, she could not say such things to free people in the town. It was very humiliating for her.
"Sometimes things get a little out of control around here."

He nodded, then grinned. "Don't worry 'bout the person who just threw that at you. He's about to walk right into--" the boy was interrupted by a yelp as the culprit suddenly dropped from sight. "A giant hole I dug there last night. I don't like him anyways, so I told everyone else about the hole. Meanwhile, he was entirely clueless." Jeb smiled crookedly at Gem, then stuck out his hand. "I'm Jebidiah Zackson, but most either call me Jeb or 'That little...' usually they don't finish the sentence, but you get the point. And it's because I'm the chaos causer in town."
The two laughed a bit at her next statement, Javrena punching Jeb's shoulder lightly. "Really? We had no idea! Actually, we're two of the leading reasons why Adurna gets chaotic." they said in tandem, joking smiles on their faces.
Javrena
"I'm Jav', also known as Javrena or several incredibly nasty other words too. The resident troublemaker, as well as expert archer and cake tosser." she said, sticking out her own hand, though it was slightly blue from the berry pie.

"yeah well, no one really sees me out here in the town, Jeb, Jav." If I had work to do they would see me again but not unless that was the case.
"Dinma's not the easily loved lord you all seem to think he is at the moment. I know what he really is like."
She was not really a trouble maker. "I've heard of you two... Dinma's always having to deal with complaints about the pair of you. I'd be careful if I was you, you're treading on very thin ice with him." Not something they wanted.

"Kind and loving lord? Who the hell spread that crap around?" Jeb asked, looking confused, though it was obvious he was joking. "Yeah, there are always at least a couple complaints about us. You have no idea how many times I've had to slip into an alleyway because guards are looking for someone and I think it might be me." his face was bright, joking and care-free, as if he would welcome anyone who dared to com after him.
Javrena
She shrugged, then pointed to an alley near their tree. "If you go along there when you get away from Dinma, then you'll be sure to see us sometimes. We're almost always in and out of the area's alleys. so if you walk along it for about a minute you're going to hear threats being yelled at someone. Follow the shouts and you'll no doubt find us." the green-eyed girl said with a grin, then ducked a pie which splattered into Jeb instead.

Gem smiled at least a little bit. "Well I think I will see you around some time. Don't worry about me while I'm not around, there are plenty of things for me to be doing. I better get back to work.. was nice meeting you."
She sighed though, not really wanting to, but she knew that she would have to do so unfortunately. If she did not, well she faced bing whipped, starved or who knows what at his cruel hands. "Dragon Riders are coming soon. Which means he'll hide me away from them, seeing as my parents are Dragon Riders."

"Wait! When are the riders coming?" he asked, looking at Javrena, the golden-haired girl. A small smile was on her face, and he knew she was thinking the same thing as he was. "We happen to be infamous troublermakers after all, and no doubt the dragon riders will want to help Dinma deal with these two criminals." he said, winking.
Javrena
She nodded, her green eyes locked onto Gem. "He's right you know. We really should turn ourselves in. And what better time to do it than when the riders are here to deal out some justice to us. I suppose there'll be a feast as well? When will it be? I'm sure we could work something out so that we arrive on time and such. After all, we wouldn't want to cause them to lose their lunches." Javrena said, containing a smirk, though barely.

"I don't know exactly when they will be here, but i know i canot be hidden away this time. My mother commands the Dragon Riders, she's their leader. Well the leader of the good riders anyways. Some of them are bad nowadays. She'll be with them, with golden Bizandra."
I sighed. It was not really that fair that I was the one missing from home. "You'll know because there'll be a lot of slaves working har din the streets to make everything look good for their arrival. Working too hard, I might add."
I knew there was little chance my mother would see me.

He nodded, then sighed and climbed back into his tree, content enough to let Javrena do the rest.
Javrena
"Okay, now there's only one other question I have for you, because otherwise, Jeb and I will have no other option but to do something incredibly dumb. And believe me, we will do it. Where is Dinma the dim likely to hide you when they come?" she asked, completely serious now. She hadn't exactly liked Dinma, something about him trying to act on the complaints about her and Jeb, but this... This would put her as 'Forever damned' in his books. Something which she dearly wanted.

Silver Mythic
I was walking about when i heard a few people talking and went to take a look. I saw them and knew that one was a sale one i wanted to help out most but i did not think that i would free her any time soon "hi i am Silver Mythic" i said and waved as i walked over to them looking at every one there. I looked around and finished walking over "your one of that guys salves and i think thats wrong, he should be one himself" i said and sat down on a stump.

"Hi Silver. Well he won't ever be unfortunately... he is King indan Maroc's brother after all. No wonder he gets away with so much crap around here. He seriously could not care less about all of us, could he?"
It sucked indefinately that he was the one in control of us all. "And yeah, I am one of his slaves, but I was not born one, luckily. My parents are the Leader of the Dragon Riders and her husband."
There was no doubt that she would still be searching for me, though it had been over a year since I was taken from her. "I'm old enough to touch whatever eggs they bring with them too." There was something else I was hiding. "Strange how my parents ended up together. Mum's an elf, dads not though." Yeah that meant they were staring at someone who was either going to be a half elf or an elf when she reached her next birthday.
Who was I to care. "I know Lindan Marcos hates elves, but I don't know why."

"When exactly are people allowed to touch the eggs anyways?" the brown-haired boy asked from his lofty perch. "And hi there Silver Mythic. Can I call you Mythic, or do you prefer Silver?" he asked cheerfully, his blue eyes full of interest in the two new girls. Surprising, he thought, to know so many people and miss these two in the crowds.
Javrena
She shrugged. "Well, Marcos' brother or no, he'll get one hell of a distraction when the riders come." the girl grinned, her green eyes shining in anticipation. "Let's see... Dela, Andra, Carson, Lale, Gretil, Amy, and Srag will be there for sure... Plus Jennifer, Gertrude, Siena, the other Andra, Bethany, Nerais, Relia, Darris and Brendan, Hardas, Theodore, Zade of course, Verinthor, Tiran Alyric and Morgan. Then Tash, Therfis, Yander and Elii..." she smirked, then nodded her head. "Dinma won't know what hit him, but it'll taste like cherry pie."
