The ring stays on my finger. I sit and stare at it and think of Michael.
He helped me overcome my mother's death. I was going to br taking care
of myself. I wonder how i could do it. Maybe Michael would come back
and take care of me then I thought he is a prince why would he want to
come back and do that.
A few days later Michael came back. He told me to follow him. So I followed
him. He took to the most beautiful place in the forest. He began to tell
me about his life and his family. Michael had a sad look in his eyes when
he talked about his family.
I told Michael the whole story of my life. About my brothers, my dad,my
mother,and other stuff. After,spending the afternoon with him I showed
him my sword. I said,"Emerald Sword Power." Michael was amazed on how it
could do that. Michael told me he had to leave soon. I was sad that he
had to leave again. He was such a good friend and he helped fill the loneliness
i felt.
Before Michael left he hugged me again. Sadly,I would not see Michael again
for a few months. During these months I grew stronger and I practiced fighting
with my sword. I taught myself some new hiding and attack techniques for
battle.
Someday,I would be Sianna the famous woman warrior of Labrinthia. The Emerald
Sword would be the weapon of the land.
I can picture all the stories being told about me. I shall be famous and
victorious I told myself. I did not know the rocky road that lied ahead.

Michael came back when I was 14. Michael was then 17. I asked why he had
always came back and visited me. He told me that he wanted to check upon
me and see how I was doing. I told him that he did not have to do that.
He told me since I was a friend to him he had to.
Michael asked me to show him all the new things I taught myself. I showed
him. He liked all the stuff and moves I showed him. He told me I would
be a great warrior someday. I still could not believe a person who is as
poor as me would have a prince as their friend. Michael stayed for a little
while then he had to leave again. After all Michael was heir to the throne.

I fought off two thieves trying to steal stuff from the house. As soon
as I said"Emerald Sword Strike" they ran away scared. They left some gold.
I am keeping the gold for when I need it.
I need to get new armor. My old armor is getting rusty and old looking.
No one is going to take my emerald sword or my medallion from me ever.
These are the most important things in my life besides Michael and defending
my family and country.
It was not going to be the last time I see these robbers. I would see them
again soon enough.

Today I feel so sad and alone. I year ago today my mom died. I went outside
and over to where she was buried by. I sat there crying for a long time.
Then,I took my sword out and raised it over my head and I said,"I will
not disappoint you mother. I swear on my life and soul that I will protect
the family,me,and Labrinthia. I will find out what happened to my brothers.
I shall get revenge. I shall not be betrayed,lied to,decieved,or hurt,
I shall fight for all causes.Including love,justice,for my family, and
for the country.
After I said this out of nowhere Prince Michael rides up on his horse
and tells me that was a nice speech. He asked me why i was so sad. I told
him one year ago my mom died. Michael then came over and gave me a long
hug.
I knew then and there Michael really cared for me. But then maybe he just
feels sorry for me cause of all my loses. But then why would he keep coming
back. He seems to care for me.
I wonder why Michael keeps leaving his kingdom. I was going to ask Michael
this. He told me he was looking for his father's killer. His father was
murdered. Michael was determined to find the killer. Thats why Michael
is always riding through this part of Labrinthia.
All of a sudden outside it started to thunder. I ran in the house then
and shut the door. Michael came in and asked why I went in. I told him
he was crazy to want to stand outside and get struck by thunder and lightning.
Michael spent the night. He slept near the fire and I slept on the other
side of the room.
