He released Hope's wrist and said quietly, "I'm so sorry for hitting you. I was way out of line."

She frowned. "Relax. I'm a big girl and can take care of myself. If you thought I was shy and meek when we first met, you're assumption was dead wrong."

"Well," Alex took some slow breaths to calm himself down. "You were pretty hesitant about everything."

She rolled her eyes. "That was only because I hadn't done anything like that before."

"Like what?" Alex paused. "You were just sitting alone in the bar, and that man came in and gave you money..." His eyes went wide.

Hope slapped him a third time. "You really are a pig! You know very well that's not what the money was for!"

He rubbed his cheek where she'd slapped him. "Well, now I do, for sure." He stood. "Alright, let's go."

"Go where?"

"To find Rosie."

"You really think I'm going to help you find your girlfriend?" Hope laughed.

"I just kind of thought it the polite thing to do."

"Have you even looked outside?" She pointed to the window. The ugly green curtains were pulled shut. Of course he hadn't looked outside.

She continued. "It's at least midnight."

"What?" Alex's jaw dropped. "How long was I out?"

"A long time. An unprecedented and unbelievably long time. I had to make sure you were still alive by holding my hand mirror to your mouth quite frequently."

"How does that help?"

"You really are dumb. Cute, but dumb." She rolled her eyes. "If you were still alive and breathing, your breath would fog up the glass of the mirror."

"Oh," Alex paused, then said defiantly, "I'm going to look for Rosie, and I'm gong now. Whether or not you're coming with me."

Hope smirked. "Look, you tell me that three men ambushed you, and one just happened to find a hammer lying randomly on the ground with which he clobbered you over the head?"

Alex nodded.

She continued. "They sound like they have no idea what they're doing. Rosie will be fine until tomorrow. Well, not fine in the same sense of you and me, but she won't be dead."

Silence hung heavily in the air. Well, heavily for Alex. It was his fault that Rosie was kidnapped. If he hadn't been so occupied with that little beggar boy...He shook his head. No reason to think and fret about the past. There's no changing it.

Hope yawned. She ran her fingers through her hair. "No use sitting up since I know you're alive." She bit her lower lip, a habit Alex found surprisingly cute. "I'm renting the room next door." She started across the room to leave.

"You aren't staying here?"

"There's only one bed. Did you really think..." She rolled her eyes and exited the room. "Pig."

Unable to control himself, Alex fell back onto the bed. He was deep in thought and, before he could protest, he'd fallen asleep.

Thought i'd try some input :) x

Name: Thomas.
Age: 4.
Race: Cat.
Gender: Male.

Appearance of Character:

Feline - Tom has a full body of black, silky fur. He has a small 'bright' white patch over his left eye of which is a different colour to the other. His right ear seems to have a 'tatoo like mark' on it in the shape of a triangle, upon closer inspection the mark seems to fade. Apart from that he is like every other cat, fish-loving, sneaky and downright..well..catty?

Description of Weapons Used: n/a
Description of Armor Worn: Tom wears a white Bandana around his neck. Upon the Bandana is this mark. Much like that upon his right ear.

......../\
....../....\
..../.-A-.\
../...........\
/____.___\


Quirks:
- Tom is partial to chasing Squirrels.
Personality:

Tom is a very strange and ingenous Cat. Ever since over-hearing a young boy talk to an older man about deaths and what not he has mad it his 'duty' to...watch shall we say?

Brief History:

That symbol around his neck and that 'tatoo' on his ear...it's a special insignia...maybe our "friendly" assasain knows more?

To prove you've actually read my prologue/story:
Which direction is the Old General's hair migrating? South
What is "Rhody" short for? Some flower :P Rhodedundrumdudmumauamum :)

Read (or reread). I think this story is good enough to keep reading. I'm intrigued at the involvement of the White Knights. To be honest, Hope strikes me as a major Mary Sue, though. To counter that, and to help with the reduced goblinocity....

Name: Greasebolt

Age: 10 (goblin adult age, but that's just my guess)

Race: Goblin

Gender: Male.

Appearance of Character: Greasebolt is a small goblin who is never caught without his very wide-brimmed straw hat. He wears rags, and carries a crossbow that seems a little too big for him.

Description of Weapons Used: He wields a powerful crossbow, which he is fairly skilled with. He has a knife which he is amazingly awful with, but will often use when he doesn't feel himself in any danger.

Description of Armor Worn: Greasebolt wears no armor, relying on his agility to stay alive and his crossbow to keep his enemies from doing the same.

Quirks: Greasebolt has a massive hatred/fear of cats and mules. The reason is unknown.

Personality: Greasebolt is clever for a goblin, but still an idiot by human standards. He's moody, and very sensitive about his crossbow, his size, and his combat ability. He's a decent sort, though, and is uncomfortable enough with the thought of innocents suffering to perhaps put himself in moderate danger.
But at heart he is a coward, a secret he is determined to keep.

Brief History: Greasebolt's life in the Garagorshuun tribe was the worst time of his life. Being rather runtish, he was often mistreated, and often got very little to eat.
However, if he had a bad life before he got the crossbow, it was a living hell after.
He hates to talk about the acquiring of his favoured weapon. He found it on the corpse of a Wilderness Bandit. Using a human weapon was bad enough.
But he only survived the fight with the bandit because he fled, and came back when the battle was over.
He only stayed in the goblin camp a week after. The other goblins hated him, and he had to use his new device more than once (cont)

(cont)to avoid being killed. When he was down to ten of his twenty bolts, it was time to move.
He decided to go to Varrock, hoping to buy some more ammunition there. On the way, he hooked up with a travelling guardsman. They both wanted to avoid the dangers of the road, and there was safety in numbers. Even with a goblin.
Greasebolt awoke one morning, a day from Varrock, to find his companion murdered.
He'd heard enough from the deceased about the famed Cyan Vansetti to decide that it was she who had done this. Whether or not he was right is hard to say. The guard's fellows seemed less sure when the goblin dragged the corpse into Varrock.
Officially, Vansetti is the culprit. But the police will keep an open mind, and so Greasebolt is determined to prove his innocence.
This may prove hard, since he is a bit of a moron. He has no clue where to look, but once he finds the assassin, he is determined not to be denied justice.
And also some revenge, perhaps. Though he denies any fondness for a human, the guard treated him well enough, and Greasebolt isn't about to let the killer of his first 'friend' go unpunished.

This bio can serve as a pointless (HAM cultists don't like goblins mingling with the humans of Varrock), or as a small threat for Elizabeth. Or as comic relief. :P

Whatever your choice, please post more. I like this story.

Oh, and...

Which direction is the Old General's hair migrating?
This is a rather obscure question. I'ma say 'south'. I remember the phrase, but not very well the end.
What is "Rhody" short for?
Rhododendron. We have one at our house and had one at our old one, it's not an uncommon plant. By the way, I caught the 'plant' theme, thought it was funny. :P
And as an extra proof, Captain Wood wonders if the General is insane three times. ;)

Well... this took a while... l0l? anyway, I gots a bio too.

name: Felix strongheart
race/species: Spirit Kyatt
personality/background: Basically good, but confused. A passing adventurer summoned this poor kyatt, but then left him without dismissing him, and then the stupid adventurer got himself killed, leaving this spirit's link to his world severed forever, and so he's more of a ghost of a kyatt that never lived than a familiar, so all it takes is a ghostspeak amulet to talk to this guy. Is generally somewhat friendly, though powerful and very, very strong in a fight, this ghostly feline has a deep and mysterious vendetta against King Roald's advisor, and pays the assassin to kill the oddly-named advisor to roald.

use this plzz?
