I'm just a poor student *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*--*-*-*-*- Serena moaned and opened her eyes, first her one lavender one then her silver one and blinked. Above was what looked like a pair of floating eyes, she could make out fuzzy black hair and a strong chin as well. "Seiya?" She muttered. Darien was talking quietly with his twin sister Katy when the girl on the bed moaned. He looked at Katy who gave him a little shove,he walked over to his bed where he had set her and frowned, she was still white as a ghost, he just assumed it was from her knocking her head on the stone floor. He drew in a breath when she opened her eyes, he had thought he'd been mistaken when he'd seen that her eyes were two different colors before she fainted. He smiled and was about to ask if she was okay when she muttered someones' name. The smiled vanished from his face, " Nay child I am not this, Seeyia." He said unknowningly mangling the name. Serena abruptly came awake at the accent, it could of been Seiya's or Nephrites but for some reason she knew that it wasn't. The face above her came into sharp focus and she almost groaned in pain and at reconition. It was the same man that she'd found in her...no his bed. Definatly his, now that she looked around. She shivered and pulled the wolf fur closer around her shoulders. She noticed the man staring at her and frowned, " Who are you? And Why have you brought me here?" Darien blinked rubbing his temples, for all he knew. This could be a new serving wench in the castle and she'd gotten drunk the night before and stumbled into his chamber and bed. " I am Lord Darien Lynchester, as to bringing you here." He shook his head, " I've been sick for a fortnight and had not stepped foot out of my bed until yesterday." Serena's eyes widened at the name, it couldn't be... she thought and looked at him again, offhandily noting his strongly handsome features. " What year is it?" She squeaked out, a odd sentsation of dread puddling at the pit of her stomach. Darien gave an exsatperated sigh and ran his hands through his tousled black hair, " 'tis the year 1409." He watched as the girl gripped the fur on the bed her knuckles showing white and as her eyes almost buldged out of their sockets. He was about to order her out of his bed when Katy stepped forward. Her rounded stomach leading the way, " Misstress..." She paused for a name Serena eyed the two, they looked remarkably alike except that the woman had long curling black hair and Orange eyes, and man had semi-long black ahir that was wavy and dark blue eyes that changed like the ocean before a storm. Serena shook her head and smiled softly, " Serena..." Katy smiled at the younger girl, " Aye then... Mistress Serena if ya will follow me I will take you to a place that you can get into something more apropriate and then take ye to dinner." Serena looked out the window and noticed that it was midday. She was about to climb out of the bed when she noticed that she was only in her black sports bra and a pair of bikini cut hanes herway flowered undies. She screeched and jumped back into the bed then pointed at Darien, "GET OUT!" She yelled. Darien smiled at the girl, " Come now Lass, ye managed to get into my bed wi' that on. What us the difference in getting out?" Katy gave her brother a look and smiled softly, " Darien my love will ye please leave us be fer a few minutes?" Darien frowned at his sister, she maybe pregnant and married to his best friend but he was still lord of this keep. Katy looked at her brother again, " Please Darien, she's obviously Modest." Darien was about to give in when he watched the girl climb out of the bed and stalk toward the door clad in only the strange garments. " Modest.. surely ye jest Katy. The little wench doesn't seem to have a modest bone in her body." he said admirering the sway of her hip. Serena paused by the door turned and walked back to Darien who was ow sitting on the bed, " Will you please stop calling me a wench! That went out a long time ago and I am far from a wench I probaly know more than you." Katy held her breath, her brother was usally gentle with females, but this was a strange case because he had been sick for two weeks. Darien leaned toward Serena a rakish smile on his face, " Yer right ye act more like a loose hussy then a Wench." Serena gave a wordless screech and picked up something that looked like a bucket from the floor and dumped it over his head. She wrinkles her nose at the smell, ' opps... I guess that wasn't water' she though and dropped the chamber pot running for the door. Darien on the other hand was too shocked to do anything about what she had done, he just sat on the edge of his bed and stared off into space. Katy who knew her brother well could tell that this was the calm before the storm and turned as fast as her rounded stomach would allow and ushered Serena out of the chamber and down the hall to the guest wing. She passed her husband who looked like he was on his way to Dariens room, " Andy my love I would not go there if I were you." She called as she rushed Serena passed him. Andrew just stood there staring after his wife of less than a yea who was six months pregnant as she rushed a obviously frightened girl down the hall. He shook his head and turned walking back down the stairs to the main keep. *********** Just as Katy shut the door to the guest chamber and threw the bolt down, she could heard a roar and a door crashing open. She close dher eyes and leaned back against the door. Darien had finally shown a reaction. She shuddered and hoped that she could keep Serena hidden until dinner or later. She opened her eyes and stared at the younger girl, " That was a very stupid thing ye did." Katy said as she walked over to the wardrobe and pulled out one of her mothers old gowns. It was made of darkgreen velvet and embrodered with silver. It shimmered in the firelight. The sleeves were tight until the elbows then widdened into bell shaped until they touched the floor. Serena stared at the woman infront of her and fought back the urge to break down, " I know... it's just no one has ever called me a Hussy." Katy smiled and held out the gown, " Come we'll get ye dressed then worry about my brother." Katy decided against ordering up a bath. The girl looked clean and didn't smell. Serena walked to the other woman and stood while she put the clothes on her. " What's your Name?" Serena asked then gasped as Katy gave a tug on the corset strings. " I'm Lady Katy Greskin," Katy replied then slipped the dress over Serena's head. Serena struggled for a moment then put her arms through the sleeves. She turned as Katy started lacing up the back of the dress, she was looking in a full length mirror and couldn't help but admirer the dress that Katy had put on her. " I'm Dariens, sister." Katy said and finished dressing Serena then led her to a stool and sat her down while, Katy styled Serena's long blonde hair into a Coronet and fastens a wilver circlet on her forhead that had a teardrop rubby, hanging down. " There you're done," Katy said just as a loud bell began to clang. " And not a moment to soon. That's the dinner bell." Serena fiddled with the skirt of the dress then followed Katy out of the Bedroom and down into the great hall. She wasn't looking forward to seeing the lord of the castle. ************** Darien was talking with his bestfriend and brother-in-law Lord Andrew Greskin. When his sister Katy walked in followed by a blonde vision. He reconized the dress first, it was one of his mothers old ones. Then he saw the girls eyes and stood up with amuted roar, every head in the room turned toward him at the sound. His some of his men with their knives halfway to their mouths. Dariens expression darkened, it was the wench that had dumped the chamber pot on his head. " KATY! What mean you by bringing that wench before me? Dressed in mothers clothes no less!" He yelled. Katy winced and looked at her brother, " She had no clothes to wear brother. And you have to admit that Serena looks rather nice." She replied and prayed. She could see her husband sitting next to Darien his mouth hanging open. Darien looked at the frightened girl that was cowering behind his sister and silently agreed that green was her color. " As true as that might be. The clothes are much to good for one of her position!" Darien bellowed. Katy was going to say something when Serena stepped forward, Katy tried to stop the girl. Because Serena had the same look in her eye that she'd had earlier when she'd dumped the chamber pot on Darien. Serena shrugged Katy's hand off and marched up to the high board standing toe to toe with Darien, her different colored eyes blazing. " And what....postion would that be?" she bit out. Darien narrowed his eyes at girl, " Well I see no lord that you might of came with. Nor do you seem to have any clothes there for you are proably a serving wench." Serena's eyes flashed and she drew back her hand, and brought it forward slapping Darien full in the face. The force knocking his head to the side. Katy watched in horror as Serena struck her brother, she moved to rescue her new friend when Andrew gave her a sharp look and shook his head. Katy skidded to a stop at the foot of the High Bord and watched in horror as two of the knights grabbed Serena from behind. Darien slowly brought his face back an angry red inprint of Serena's palm clearly visable. " You struck me..." he said then as if just noticing the knight snarled at them, " Let her go." The knights looked doubtful for a moment, " But Milord..." One started Darien silenced him with a look. The other who had gotten a closer look at Serena's eyes gasped and shoved her away from him as if she had the plauge. " She has the mark of a Demon!" he yelled pointing at her. To Katy, Darien, and Serena who was now sprawled on the ground it seemed as if the whole room leaned forward to get a better look then jumped back. Except for Andrew and a few other people, and then the muttering started, " A demon...A demon has entered the keep. Look at 'er eyes. The eyes of a devil." Serena looked around in horror as the peoples' faces turned from looks of horror to anger. And then to murderous rage. Her eyes sought out Katy and the only other person she knew here, Darien as the people started shouting demands. *****************************
