*grabs her*

LILANDRA SIT DOWN!

*controls his anger*

You will be swept overboard, the wind is vicious

*gasps*


Jack Templar.. you sound just like that.. that.. Assassin!





*Throws herself back onto the bed*

*sighs*

Lilandra it is for your own safety, trust me

*Lilandra is kneeling in the middle of the bed when the ships lurches*


Oh!!

*she is thrown in to Jacks arms*

*catches her*

See what I mean? This storm will only grow worse, we HAVE to land.

I'm frightened of this place Jack... please... </>


*Her eyes plead with him*

*He holds her and lays down on the bed with her*

Lilandra, if we die in this storm you will never get home. We will just be lost at see. Can you tell me why you are frightened? This may be a fear we simply have to face

*looks into his eyes*


Darklings.... </>

*Narrows his eyes*

Darklings?

*Closing her eyes, she turns her face into his chest and when she eventually speaks he can bearly hear her*


dark elves </>


*She shudders violently*

*he holds her comfortingly*

Well Lilandra what do you suggest? It is unlikely we will outride this storm

*pulls her up and guides her to the window*

Look at it now, and it has barely begun

*Staggers against him*


Those clouds are not natural storm clouds... they have been called! </>


Jack... they want us!


*looks into his eyes and sees her answer*... .. You Knew?

*doesnt say anything but wathces the clouds gathering in intensity*

Lilandra we still have no choice , unless you can think of something ofcourse

*He looks at her questioningly*

*She knows she is defeated... the storm is raging all around them.. the ship would never manage to outrun it... her shoulder sag*


It has begun.....


*She turns away and staggers back to the bed and slumps down on it*

*watches her over his shoulder*

Tell me Lilandra, tell me what you mean.

This is the beginning of the prophecies.... I never realised as a child, that I would be the cause of it all!


Whatever have I begun?



*sits staring at the cabin floor*

*moves to sit next to her*

Prophecy?

*places an arm about her*

Tell me about it, if you can

*shakes her head in despair*


Not prophecy darling.... Prophecies!.. This is just the beginning...


*A low moan escapes her lips as the mourns her race*

*holds her closer*

Please, try to help me understand

It is all my fault..

It is all my fault...

It is all my fault...
