Chapter Three: In the Den of Thieves

A terrible sandstorm began right as the Magicians prepared to track Amelda into the desert. There was no way they could follow as the winds wiped away any trail that might have been useful.

The room was a complete mess. Objects were scattered across the floor and floating in the air as the magician girl paced frantically back and forth across what she believed to be her "prison."

Mana had woken up at the sound of a raised voice, but had not yet panicked since she was still a bit disoriented. When her mind became clearer, she found that she was in unfamiliar surroundings. 'This isn't my room.' It sparked in her mind, the face of the young man and the temple caving in around them. For a horrifying moment, she had put two plus two together and imagined the worst possible scenario.

'I've been KIDNAPPED! I've been kidnapped, I've been kidnapped!' Mana had jumped up, her hysteria taking over all rationality. 'Master Mahaado's gonna KILL me! Oh my Ra, does he even know where I am? The Prince is gonna be so worried and what does the stranger want with me, is he gonna hurt me or--'At the corner of her eye, she caught sight of the stranger who had taken her away from the palace. This further fueled her panic and the headache

The Goodness. ;D <3

To say Amelda was surprised to see the various objects in the room hovering about the ground was an understatement. However, his shock turned to worry when seeing the girl clutching her head, her balance wavering. Sighing, he realized from her frightened reaction he was going to have a hard time settling her down to check that bump

Her wide, blinking eyes observed the expression on his face and the way his hand reached out to her. So he really did seem like he wanted to help her. Thieves weren't supposed to be so nice, right? They pillaged, murdered, thought only about themselves and didn't help out anybody, especially little mages. Or so the stories said.

One thing was for sure. Her headache wasn't feeling any better thinking all these frightening thoughts!

"Ehem...okay," she said finally, in a meek voice. Carefully, as though somehow expecting him to curse her at any moment, she took hold of his hand. Using it to balance herself as she sat back down on the bed, she waited quietly like a good little patient. But she was still worried.

When Amelda's face was staring back at her, Mana squealed loudly and giggled, breaking the spell. "I did it, I did it, I did it! I remembered the spell and nobody saw me! It really, really worked, I did it!"

Despite her dusty state and the small space underneath the bed, Mana managed to launch herself at the caring thief, wrapping her arms around him and causing them to roll across the floor. She was so relieved to be alive. To think that she survived an encounter with the Dictator of the Dragon Kingdom! Well, she just didn't know any other way to react except in her usual, hyperactive way.

What she didn't realize, however, was the awkward position that she placed Amelda in when they stopped moving.

She was still on top of him, still hugging him tightly, with his comrades still in the room.
