(a/n *sighs* This fic is like my baby and it's coming to an end. *sniffs*
Well okay we have loads of time, but it's still coming to an end. SO. I
think that if you love me really and you like reading this fic, REVIEW!!!
Please! Even if you just usually read this and don't review still review!!
Just this once for me. Please?? I've only ever had one fic that went over
the 200 mark. That's We Aren't Betrothed Are We? It's obvious you people
like this fic because I've never had a fic that did so well after just a
couple of chapters. So please review. It's an ambition of mine before I
leave this site to get at least two fic's over the 200 mark. That's like
only 20 reveiws more and I know you people can do it! I know you can! For
those of you who don't know yes I am leaving. As soon as some of my fic's
are finished I'm making a website and I'll put my stuff on there. Then I'm
gone. *sniffs* I'm going to miss you, I really am. *sighs*)
Ps. I'm really sorry I've been gone for so long and made you guys wait it's just my home life is sort of falling apart at the moment so I've really been to upset to write much. I'm sorry and I will try to get some new chapters out as soon as I can. If you'd like to keep up with what is going on with my life then by all means read my journal you can find the link on my profile. But don't tell me to get help okay?
I gave the plot cookie to three people.
Insane Kitten~ she never wins anything. She has now!
Martini~ has reviewed the last chapter over 10 times telling me to update. Now that is what I call a dedicated reviewer.
Annakana~ she was the 165th reviewer! Thankyou!
And to all the other people who reviewed thankyou you've been great!
Now onto the story!
I'll Never Forget You
Talks With A Certain God
Daine was sitting in her and Ozorne's rooms on the bed with her head in her hands. "Great Mother what have I got myself into?" She whispered. It had been an eventful day. What with getting married seeing friends that she hadn't seen for months. She was just tired. The celebrations were still going on Daine had told Ozorne that she simply felt ill and that it was too much excitement for and that she needed to rest. She sighed. She's avoided her friends, and not talked to anyone.
She just wished things would go back to the way they were.
"Now kit what's wrong?" The all to familiar voice of a certain god said.
Her head shot up. "Badger! You haven't visited me in years!"
The badger god snorted. "Years? Has it really been that long? Oh of course the time difference. How are you my kit?"
She shook her head. "Bad." She glanced up, "Can't you talk The Graveyard Hag? Or the others?"
The badger suddenly seemed uncomfortable. "I have spoken with The Graveyard Hag. She told me to give you this." The badger appeared on the bed. He, he breathed on her? "She said you'll find out what you have to do soon enough." He disappeared.
Kitten walked in chirping shrilly. Daine bent and picked the young dragon up. "You've no idea to what the badger just did do you?" She asked the dragon.
Kitten shrilled. Daine put her down. "Thought not."
In the guest quarters.
"Tell me again why we left her here?" Numair said. They were all in the guest room's lounge. Each room was linked on. It was decorated in Tortallan styles. Daine's work.
"We had no choice Numair." Alanna said tiredly. "You know we wouldn't have left her if we didn't have to."
"She's changed." Duke Gareth said quietly.
"For better of for worse." Numair said bitterly. "He's changed her."
"He doesn't own me Numair. I had to change, I'm an Empress not a commoner anymore." Daine was leaning by the door. She looked elegant despite the fact she was leaning on the doorframe arms crossed over her chest.
"We didn't think we'd see you again tonight. You disappeared before the end."
She smiled slightly. "Balls aren't my thing. Ozorne wanted me to get some rest. I'm to look after my visitors. Plus I really didn't want anyone to see me like this." She looked down at herself meaningfully.
"I think you look beautiful." The words were out of Numair's mouth before he could stop them.
Daine gave him a smile. "Don't let my husband here that. I don't think he likes competition." Alanna laughed softly.
A slave walked in. "My- my-my Empress." He said bowling low. "I'm sorry for interrupting you, so sorry." His head was almost touching the flagstones.
Daine frowned at him. "Don't do that." She said. "Please, I'm not my husband. You do not need to bow to me." The slave looked frightened briefly then fled. "I wish they wouldn't do that." Daine said quietly. "It makes me uncomfortable."
"You're an Empress." Duke Gareth said. "You're always going to be uncomfortable."
"And of course you are right." She paused. "Do you have any plans for tomorrow? Only I am free and I'll have nothing to do. You'd be doing me a favour."
"We haven't any plans." Numair said grinning at Daine's sudden change of attitude.
"My dear. Here you are, I've been worried." Everyone jumped at Ozorne's sudden entry. Daine turned around to see him. He snaked an arm around her waist.
"Oh I am sorry. I just couldn't think of even sleeping without telling my guest goodnight and arranging what I had to do tomorrow. Just think how rude it would be if I just turned up! No way for an Empress to act."
(a/n There you go!!!! It's done now!!!)
