Hanna
I woke up when I felt something pressed on my back. What was that? Dusk? No it was way too big for a little cat. I slowly got up feeling groggy and looked over next to me. Lying in bed beside me was a raven haired man. At first I stared blurred eyed at him and then my eyes widen and I let out a scream. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?!?!"
The man woke up and he looked over at me sleepily. A man in my bed?! Was he here the entire night?!?
I magically summoned my kunais in my hands. I only summoned them this way when I was really fired up like right now. The violet eyes of the man widen as he realized he was in a hell of trouble. He jumped out of the bed as a kunai hit the pillow and feathers fluttered in the air.
"Get back here!" I shouted after him as he made a mad dash to the door. I threw another kunai and it hit the wall instead. I jumped out of the bed, luckily I was still wearing my day clothes, and ran after him.
I saw him about to turn a corner and threw three kunais at him. Two hit the wall behind him and one hit the wall in front of him. It was two inches close from his face. He stopped to stare at the kunai that nearly missed him and then he was off again.
"Get back here so I can kill you!" I shouted at him and got more kunais out.

lol Does anyone want to break these two up?
Ashido had woken up from hunger. He was so tired that he didn't even realizie that he hasn't eaten anything since before the test began. He walked down to the kitchen and found something to snack on. He then noticed a nice smell coming from outside. He walked to the window and noticed a garden growing outside. He jumped out the window and land softly on the ground. He then started walking around the garden. "It reminds me of when I was little, and mom and dad." He said to himself. He would walk over to each plant and say something about what his parents had told him about it. He finally walked over to a vine looking plant. He softly touched it and he felt pain in his finger. He realizied that the plant was a rose vine. It was full of buds waiting to burst open in the soon coming morning light. "Their going to be red colored. They look just like the ones mom used to grow...." He picked one of the buds of and held it in his hand. "She always did say roses bloom twice in a year." He ran a little of his power into the bud and it opened to reveal a beautiful red rose. *A flash back begans* "Ashido do you know why I love red roses?" His mom asked. "No why?" "They remind me of your eyes. So when I say them I think of you." "So thats why you let them grow everywhere?" "Yes, because it reminds me that your growing everyday, like a rose about to bloom." *Flash back ends* Ashido grabs his rosary beads he keeps hiding under his shirt. "Mom I wonder if your looking down on me right now. You probably laughing at how me and Knightly have turned out. You always said that I was the rose and he was the wolf." He then brings the beads to his mouth and says a prayer, then walks back inside to see if anyone is up so he can have someone to talk to.

Just wanted to show a little more of Ashido's past.
He was impatient, I could see that, to become immortal, but I admired the fact that he was able to contain that and just wait. He was a little surprised that I was royalty, but oh well. He'd get used to it. I was still me, crown and all. I followed him outside, and we ended up in the gardens.
The hedges were a foot taller than I was and blooming colorful flowers. I closed my eyes, relishing the breeze in my hair. I held my hair out of my face as I breathed in the scent of fresh air. I loved that smell, it was one of the few things that never got old.
We ended up just wandering around, taking in the sights a bit. When I was tired of walking, I plopped down in the grass, at the center of the gardens. Sahiro sat next to me.
"So?" he started, unsure of how to break the silence.
"You'll get used to the silence when you are immortal. It's all around you then," I told him. Of course, I had been alone for the better part of my life, so maybe his life would be different than mine.
"I don't think I could handle this much quiet," he told me, a smile on his face. He was too hyper for his own darn good.
I smirked, probably the closest I'd get to a real smile. "Just enjoy the time you have as a mortal. Over the decades, you'll miss it," I told him as I laid down in the grass, relishing the feel of it beneath my arms.

Ya, I'm tired, so sorry it's short.
I stared at him. He honestly wanted to become immortal? Such a thing was unheard of, and I didn't know how I felt about that. yes, I was delighted that he agreed, but I couldn't help feeling that he would regret it later in life.
I got up, off my bed and opened the curtains. Running a hand through my long hair, I walked over to him. "It is quite a long journey from here, however, we have been called here on a mission. And whether I like it or not, I was accepted to help do whatever that little prince wants us to do. So, our journey will have to wait until after we complete what the prince wants."
"You have to swear you will hold up your end of the bargain," he told me; I could see in his eyes that he wanted to go now, to be immortal now.
I held up my right hand. "Yes, yes. I promise once this whole ordeal is done, I will take you back to my kingdom and to the spring that will grant you immortality."
"Kingdom?" he frowned, confusion written all over his face.
"Yes. I'm the Queen of Yuira. It is many leagues away from here, and far more beautiful than anything I have seen here. Of course, I haven't been there in quite some time, though I doubt anything has changed."
Sahiro was staring at me in bewilderment.
"What?" I asked him.
Continue?
I went to my room ahead of Sahiro, wondering just how he was reacting. Did he totally hate me now? Why had I even done that? God, I was so stupid. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid! Stupid emotions. Well, that wasn't going to happen again. No. My emotions were getting cut off.
I wasn't going to get my hopes up, either. Chances of Sahiro choosing immortality over mortality, something I greatly wanted, was slim to none. Sure, he said that no one accepted him, but he was still young- only 15. He had his whole life ahead of him. Surely over the years he would find someone of his own status that he would rather spend the rest of his days with.
I fell onto my bed and stared at the wall. I was to anxious to sleep, but I was tired, so I forced myself to count sheep, anything to try and get me tired. After awhile, I finally dozed off. But it was a restless sleep because I was too anxious to know his answer.
