Lost, but Seeking

[David Augustine]

David entered the barracks know what this place was from years ago. He wasn't heavily muscular, but had a decent figure. He was well capable of doing more than holding his own in a fight. He looked around with his blue eyes and noted that nothing has changed since the last time he was here.

He walked up to someone nearby that didn't seem busy with anything and tapped him on the shoulder. "Excuse me, sir, but I was wondering if you could help me with a few things?" he asked me.

[Guinevere Viperatus]

A flaming arrow went flying over David's shoulder.

"Oops..." Guin said drawing out another arrow. She had every arrow marked. The plain arrows had white feathers while the arrows she set on fire had red feathers. Poison arrows were marked with green arrows while arrows that contained some magic to them had silvery feathers. Her system worked perfectly and she could draw her arrows without looking now. She took careful aim at a target nearby and with a quick snap of her wrist, she sent it flying, landing in the perfect center of the target.

[David Augustine]

He left the man he had addressed and walked over to Guinevere. "Tell me did you do that on purpose or is your aim that poor?" he asked her jokingly, "But you must have decent aim or else you wouldn't have made that bullseye."

[Guinevere Viperatus]

"See that boy over there..." she said gesturing to a young boy of 16. "I got distracted by him running into a tree..." she said with a grin. "Lets test a posion arrow now..." she said with a grin. "HEY KID!" she yelled. "Stand in front of the target..."

[David Augustine]

"Hopefully aiming is good enough to miss the kid. I would hate to see one die from posion." he told her. He the grabbed a bow that was nearby and arrow at random. It was an arrow with silvery feathes. He strung it and drew back. He then let the arrow fly at the target. It didn't hit the center, but it hit the target none the less. "As for me, I'll stay with the sword and lance."

[Guinevere Viperatus]

She drew out an arrow, taking careful aim. "How much do you trust me?" she whispered drawing back her bow. With another quick snap of her wrist, she sent the arrow flying. It looked as if it was going to peirce the boys hear but it sudden;y shot up, striking a raven flying over.

[David Augustine]

"I trust you enough, that you won't hurt me." David told her. They haven't known each other very long, but he trusted her enough to call her a friend. He looked at her with a puzzled look. "Why do you wish to know, Guinevere?"

[Guinevere Viperatus]

She simply shrugged. "Its good to know who trusts you and who doesn't. Besides... if I would was using a poison arrow it would have a green feather not a silver one. Silver are arrows that have some sort of magic within them..." she said with a smile.

[David Augustine]

"I did not know that. So the arrow I shot was magical." he replied. He set the bow down and stood there for a moment. He was thinking about many things. He then turned and looked at Guin. "So tell me, do you trust me?" he asked her.

[Guinevere Viperatus]

"Yes... the arrow you shot was magical." she said looking at the boy who was scared to death.

"And yes... right now, I trust you." she said turning to him and leaning on her bow.

[David Augustine]

"I see." he told her. He drew his sword and observed the light reflecting off of it. It was a strong blade despite the fact that it didn't look radiant. It was a mystical sword. This sword was capable of cutting through the toughest of armor. It could cut through anything if the user so desired. He then put it back and looked at the boy. He sniffed the air and made a look of disgust. "I think that boy soiled himself."

[Guinevere Viperatus]

Guin laughed lightly. "He needs to learn how to trust me..." she said with a smile. "I would never hurt anyone who didn't deserve it..." she said looking over at the boy once again. "That little twit thought he could use a crossbow and almost shot me in the back. Good senses made me turn to catch it before it hit me but I think I hung him from a tree with one of my arrows for it..."

[David Augustine]

"I guess so. The book says, to do unto others as they would have you do unto you." he replied, "He's just a child and probably just learning how to weild weapon such as that for the first time." He then looked around and saw the many warriors doing many things. Some were talking amongst themselves. Some were dualing each other. Others were eating. And some were training. David himself had came here to see if there was a house of the Augustine family in this city.

[Guinevere Viperatus]

Guin closed her eyes for a moment as she rested against her bow. She sighed, yawning alittle. She felt her bow start to give so she sat up, not wishing to snap it. She looked around the training grounds, nodding to the warriors she knew.

[David Augustine]

"You seem tired." David told her, "Would you mind me joining you on your way home?" He decided that he might be able to see more of the city this way and would probably end up finding some things out. He didn't have anything better to do at the moment. And he knew that he could ask someone his question some other time.
