Arathas giggled.'Thats what you get for tickling me!'She shouted as she leaped out of the water and ran like a little kid.She grabed a towel and started drying herself off,enjoying the last bit of sun that was left.

"You're such a worry wart.." She waved him off, rolling onto her side to sleep. "It's not like anything is out there.." Temperance yawned.

Blade laughed and got up out of the water and hugged her getting her wet again just as the sun went down.He smiled at her mischievously and laughed."Cold?"He asked as the cool water soaked them both.

Hearing that, hurt Aleck and he rolled over with his back to her.
"Sorry..."he whispered before going off to bed.

Arathas turned around and laughed.'Not really,but now im wet again.'Arathas said while laughing.'Thank you soo much.'She said in a teasing tone.

Blade laughed and pulled away."You know you still love me."He said in a teasing tone grabbing an edge of her towel and trying his hair off with it making it stick up everywhere in spikes.

Arathas laughed.'Sure I do.'She said and winked at him.Arathas waited until he was done drying his hair off on her towel.'Well excuse me while I put something on.'She said with a teasing look in her eyes as she grabed her clothes off of the horse and started slipping them on.

Blade faked hurt and pouted slightly."You-you don't love me?"He asked holding his shirt like a little kid would his/her blanket.He couldn't hold the fake hurt and cracked up.He slide his shirt on and his pants leaving the armor off.

Arathas laughed as she put her shirt and pants on.Her armor was on her horse,she looked over near the river that lead up into the cave behind the waterfall.'I guess we are camping out behind the waterfall.'Arathas said stretching and started walking towards anidori and blade.

Blade smiled and then gently grabbed her wrist."Wait..."He said softly pulling her against him.He leaned down and gently brushed his lips against hers and then pulled away to see if it was okay...

Arathas didn't blush.She had already known they had strong feelings for each other.Arathas kissed blades lips softly.'Lets hurry and help Anidori and Brainard,im already geting tired.'Arathas said with a soft smile as she brushed her hair out of her face.

Blade smiled and then kissed her back."Okay let's go help them take the things to the cave..."He said his voice soft and caring.He gently brushed his hand across her cheek before they walked over to Anidori and Brainard.

Arathas smiled and slipped her hand into his as they walked.She wondered how they'd get behind the waterfall without geting into deep water,altough she had a feeling they could do it sense they always seem to do the imposible.

Blade smiled softly as he felt her slide her hand into his.He looked over at the water fall and saw a very small but walkable path that lead behind the waterfall and into the cave.As if reading her thoughts he said.."Look right there..."pointing to the path/ledge,"...we'll be able to get behind it without getting wet."He told her smiling.

Arathas looked to where blade was pointing and she nodded.'Good eye.'She said with a small smile as they approached Anidori.'You two love birds ready?'Arathas called out.

Anidori had the horses together and everything seemed to fit in place.She sighed.'Im ready.'She said grabing her horse by the reins and ready to lead.

Blade smiled back at her and then gently ran his hand through his horse's hair calming it."Okay...let's go?"He asked looking at Anidori and Arathas and Brainard.

Anidori nodded leading her horse into the path.It only took her a moment to be inside the cave,safe and dry.There was no major path ways of the sort.Then she looked back to hear a rock tumble.She turned her head back quick and grabed arathas arm before she fell.The horses where alright,but the path they where on was a small ledge behind the waterfall.Anidori pulled her up.'Lets keep moving.'She said in a stern voice and starting to walk again.

Arathas nodded and let go of blades hand.She took her horse by the reins and followed as they walked on the ledge inside the waterfall.She lost her footing and before a flash of her eyes Anidori caught her.Anidori already knew arathas was thankful.Arathas nodded.'Alright.'She said as she started back in line.Her heart was racing about to break out of her chest,she couldn't believe the rush that had just taken place.

Blade had barely seen Arathas loose her footing and his heart almost skipped a beat.He gently sighed not loud enough for anyone to hear him but himself.He gently lead his horse and was pleased when he followed suit.He lost his balance but his hand was still on the horse and the horse pulled him up and used his head to set Blade on his back...Blade was greatful but his heart was racing as well as he sat with his legs on one side the horse following anidori and Arathas.

Anidori soon lead them onto a steady path and they entered the cave.The path they had taken,was closing.Anidori was using the wind uncontroled to make a path way so they could make it threw.Anidori let out a steady sigh and looked around the cave.It would be perfect to sleep here tonight.

Arathas looked to blade searching his eyes.'Are you alright?'She asked soothingly as she walked behind him from there on to make sure he'd be okay.Arathas saw the path starting to clear as they made it into the cave.She wasn't too surprised but she looked around cave.It looked much more beautiful in the dark.It had turned out there where crystals at the very back of the cave lighting it.Arathas let out a content sigh.

Brainard smiled seeing the cave.He haden't been here in...well a long time.He nodded."Well now that we are in safety we should set up camp."He said.He stopped his horse and quickly started to set up there tents.

(( Ahh sorry...I have a brain fart. xD ))

Anidori nodded and simpley got a small fire going.She grabed everyones water bottles from off the horses and dipped them into the fresh spring of water.She gave them back to everyone.'Make it last,you never know if this will be our last stop.'Anidori said in a stern voice.She sat down on the stone floor and held her knees against her chest,she looked out threw the water and at the moon that was just out of reach.The waterfall wasn't a major one,but it could still kill a person if given chance.Anidori sighed and leaned against the cool stone and kept staring at the moon.

Arathas nodded but was taken by surprise at how fast the camp was set up and she didn't have to lift a finger.Arathas soon noticed Anidori seemed...different?Perhaps listening to the wind.Arathas sighed and went over to the edge of the cave and sat alone leting her feet hang off the edge,leting the fish swim around her feet.

Blade nodded slightly and let his horse go to the back of the cave and lay.He walked over to light up crystals at the back and ran his hand along them.They were beautiful...one fell as his hand scrapped gently over it.He bent and picked it up wondering if he should keep it or leave it in it's rightful place...He gently twirled the jem around one finger with the other.He had never seen crystal's but instantly loved the small jewel.

Arathas sighed siftky and looked back over her shoulder to find blade messing with the crystals.She didn't leave her spot but simpley sat there and watched the fish swim in circles around her feet.Arathas gently kicked her feet sending a small wave of water.She did this for a few more moments then looked up geting a glimpse of a full moon.She smiled softly at the thought of it being night,night time was always her favorite time of the day becayse she was able to feel...free?Arathas stared up at the sky for a few more moments leting the cool air sink in.

Blade gently wrapped it up in cloth and put it in his pocket...he could split it and make jewelry out of it for Arathas...He looked over at her and walked to where she was.He already knew it was a full moon...he could tell.Something in him changed slightly making life easier,freer,more care free.He smiled at her gently looking at the full moon as well."It's beautiful..."He said gently his voice soft and caring.

Arathas looked over her shoulder to him.Her eyes softened as they landed on blades eyes.'Indeed it is.'She said then turning her eyes back to the water watching it be lit by the moon.
