"Hey Nashira" said one of the other girls smiling and handing Nashira a towel "Hey Kay" she greeted her back, sitting down at the bar "did you have any trouble after I left?" Nashira asked eyeing one of the drunken men who was trying to ask for another drink, his words to slurred to understand "No not a peep, you really scared them" giggled Kay leaning on the bar as she talked. "Good, no one starts a fight in my bar without me finishing it" said Nashira loudly, making sure everyone could hear it, "Nashira" Nashira turned around "Hey Luka" she said smiling at her business partner "come" was all he said, before returning into the back of the bar, where it was to be more quiet.
Nashira gave Kay a shrug then followed Luka, hoping she hadn't done anything wrong, "Wipe that look off your face" said Luka smiling slightly "you haven’t done anything wrong, yet" he added.
Nashira watched Luka, she had a talent for reading face and she noted on how serious his looked "what is it?" she asked hating the silence that had filled the room. "Jarred" said Luka looking over his shoulder as a tall boy stepped out of the shadows, his eyes fixed on Nashira, who's face changed quickly from curiosity to shock "Prince Jarred" she muttered her eyes fixed on the boy, the prince, son of King Leif and Queen Jasmine. "Well aren’t you going to bow?" asked Jarred cockily, "Jarred" said Luka in a warning tone, "Nashira, Leif has asked me Friend of Barda to help his son" with this Luka pointed to Jarred "but I’m not as young as I used to be, I can not ride horse back or sword fight, so there for I have had to select someone who knows what they are doing, you are my daughter so I would be honored in you went in my place." Luka finished glancing from Jarred to Nashira.
Nashira frowned "me?" she asked rather stupidly, making Jarred snort at her dumbness "hey shut up you royal ass" hissed Nashira, royalty or not he was a pain "Will you two quit it, your acting like a bunch of eight year olds" snapped Luka standing between the glaring pair "you will be doing this together, it will not work if you can not stand in the same room as each other". Nashira poked her tongue at Jarred when Luka looked away, only to have Jarred poke his right back. "Grrr" Nashira stomped her foot "why must you pick me, its not that I don’t want to help but with him" she sighed loudly ignoring Jarred as he muttered "drama queen"
"I cant believe this" muttered Nashira pushing open the door of her home, walking out dressed in tight brown leather pants, a white baggy shirt though it was held tight with a leather guarder which tied all the way up making it so her white shirt would not get in her way. Carrying a backpack of her belongings Nashira stomped towards Luka, Jarred and the horses, "Jarred be a gentleman and help the lady carry her bag" said Luka nudging Jarred, who had just been standing there eyeing Nashira with hate. Muttering Jarred stepped forward and grabbed Nashira's bag "I'm not incapable" snapped Nashira "I’ll carry my own bag" pushing Jarred out of the way Nashira stomped over to her horse Blaze and dumped her bag at her heavy booted feet. "So I must ride Him to Tora just so he can find a bride" said Nashira “poor girl” she added in an undertone, "Nashira, it is not safe for Jarred to go by himself, that is why I was selected, even with the shadow lord defeated there are still many un-pleasant things left around" said Luka looking at the two teens standing in front of him, "yeah I know I’m standing next to one" said Nashira pointing to Jarred. Luka turned to Nashira "be nice" he said in a growl as he made sure her cloak was on tight, "you'd better be off, you need to get somewhere before sun down".
With that Jarred and Nashira climbed onto their horses, "and please be careful" pleased Luka looking between the two as they sat, both looking stubbornly at their path.
As Jarred turned his horse and started walking away Luka turned to Nashira "just watch him ok, if anything was to happen-" he cut off though Nashira nodded "I know I know" she said glancing at the Royal Pain as he carried on riding, "and Jarred" yelled Luka watching the prince turn around in his saddle "look after her" finished Luka smiling as Nashira groaned and quickly turned her horse also, letting it trot to catch up to Jarred, though she made sure she was in front and in charge.
"God help us" said Luka watching the two ride away, already arguing over who was to lead; neither was going to ride next to the other.
