(Kirk's POV)


The start of our journey was lighted by a beautiful dawn, brightening up the clear sky in front of us in a palette of blues and pinks. For the first few hours, James and I rode side by side with the girls following us closely. He was deep in his thoughts and I tried not to bother him, knowing my friend, he was going over our trip in his head. I just hoped he remember what he'd promise me, to find the longest way.

When we turned into the forest the path became more narrow and now our convoy was moving between tall trees. Our pace slowed down, but neither of our companions said anything about it. I got hold of a branch, letting them pass by me and studied their faces.

Alexia was looking down, like a prisoner going to her death, hopeless and unable to change anything. All day Meg was trying to cheer her up, but the only reaction she got was a rare ghostly smile. The only time her face came back to life was when her eyes caught a glimpse of James. She definitely liked him... and he likes her a lot, I saw it in his eyes. I had a lot of work to do... not only do I have to get Meg's heart, but I also have to help those two get together. Screw the need to safe some country, love is more important then anything.

At mid day we reached the river that was running between hills, cutting deep below ground level. Me and James got off our horses and walked to a cliff, in search for a better place to get down. Just before the river turn, the side seemed less sloped and after we're agreed to cross there, I turned to James.

“You think it's time for a rest? They're girls, not warriors, remember?”

“We can set a camp by the river after crossing it.” He glanced at Alex, quickly turning away when their eyes met.

I heard him sigh as he got back on his horse. Seriously, screw her plan. Princess or not, those two belong together. I'll have to do my best to make it all happen. Me and Meg, James and Alex. But for now... for now we continue on our way. I need more time and I need an ally.

As we rode along the high side of the river bank, I noticed a big broken tree trunk in front of us. I stopped, letting James and Alex pass me, they both turned their horses off the path to get around the barrier, but not Meg, she stopped as well and was looking at me with a smile in her eyes.

Time to impress her with my riding skills, I was always good at that. I hit the sides of my stallion, sending it forward to jump over the barrier, but instead of jumping my four legged friend reared, picking both front feet of the ground. I wasn't ready for this move and slid off the horse's back, landing behind it and watching my betrayer slowly walk around the fallen tree and away from me, under the loud laughs of my companions.

Great! My plan to sweep Meghan off her feet got to a perfect start. Me on my ass on the ground, her laughing hysterically. Fuck!

She dismounted, walking past me, and took hold of the reins of my horse, bringing deceiving beast back to me.

“I hope you didn't bruise your.... um... ego. It's not easy to make an Arabian horse do something it doesn't want to do... are you okay?” She reached her hand to me, offering help.

“I'm fine...” I pushed myself up from the ground, feeling my face flush. She smiled and ran her hand along my horse's neck.

“He is a beauty! What's his name?” She brushed her fingers through the horse's mane.

“I used to call him Shadow, but from now on his name is Bastard.” I squint my eyes, looking at the horse. I hope you're happy, you conniving son of a bitch!

“Aaaww.. he didn't do it on purpose, can you just forgive him?” Meghan turned, biting her lip and trying to hold her smile back.

“I guess I can give him one more chance.” And I hope I didn't ruined my chance with you... I took the reins from her hand and our fingers touched for a second, bringing shivers to my body. She bit her lip and slowly lowered her hazel eyes, moving her hand away.




(Meg's POV)


Kirk's fiasco when he tried to show off lightened up my mood, he looked so cute, blushing with embarrassment. I never liked men who could do everything perfectly, they were so irritating with their macho attitude. Kirk was not like that at all, I could fall for him so easily... If only I was free... if only Alex would abandon her plans. She obviously liked James... a lot... I needed a plan, and more time...

After crossing the river we set up camp to eat and dry our wet clothes. Me and Alex hid behind trees, looking for some privacy, leaving James and Kirk by the water. We hung our clothes on the branches and laid down on the soft grass. Lets try...

“Alex, you look so depressed, are you sure you want to continue with your plans?” I started, looking at the sky above us.

“It's my duty to restore what my father worked so hard to build, you know that. I can't let my brother ruin it all. I have to try.” Her voice sounded like she was trying to convince herself of what she said. “But you are free and I want you to stay with Kirk and be happy.”

I turned to my side and looked at my friend. I want you to be happy too and you won't be with that old and heartless fucker. Oh.. Alex, don't you know, your father wouldn't ever let you make such sacrifice. He loved you with all his heart, he wanted you to be happy. I have to find a way to make you see that... but not now... now your head is too full of duty. I have to wait till your heart surrenders to James. For now I have to take small steps. I propped my head on my hand, looking at Alex with an encouraging smile.

“I'm going with you and that's final. Let's just enjoy our company while we can, promise me you'll do that. Just forget for a few days about duty, at least we'll have some good memories, something tells me we will need them. Promise?”

She looked at me with a vague smile. “I promise... maybe you'll change your mind later, when Kirk rules your heart.”

One little step at the time...

“Your heart is free too, you know. You may have to marry that stupid Otto the first, but you don't have to love him.” I lowered my head back to the ground.

I will try to change your mind Alex, I know how stubborn you can be, but your father would never let you throw your life away, neither will I.

(Meg's POV)


All day today I was thinking of different ways to slow down our trip. It was moving too fast, and I needed more time to try to change Alex's mind, not mentioning more time to let Kirk make his move. A week had passed since we met and we'd become very friendly after his failure to impress me. We spend most of our time together, we had so many things in common. We both loved horses, had the same kind of sense of humor and shared a deep fascination with life forces. But talk was all we did, I waited for him to try to get closer, but he was too shy.

Do I have to do everything myself? I need to find a way and slow us down, for all of us. Gods help me!I bit my lip, quickly glancing at Alex, thankfully she was too busy with her own thoughts. She would surely suspect something if she saw my face, she knew my habit to bite my lips when I was planning trouble.

What can I do...? There has to be something, think! I can't pretend to be sick... or injured... Maybe I can twist my ankle? No... we are traveling on horses, so that wouldn't work. I can make myself throw up... no.. I wouldn't want Kirk to see my like that... What else? I bit my lip again and turned to look at my friends. I wonder, if they knew what I was thinking about, would they get mad?

Alex probably would, I am trying to mess up her plans, or... I saw her glance at James, a smile lighting her face for a split second, then she close her eyes and shook her head. Her lips moved and I read 'No... I can't...' on them before her hands started to nervously thread along the edge of her cape. She shook her head one more time and sighed.

Oh Alex, stop fighting your heart! Just forget about your country and let yourself be happy! I know how you feel about him, let it happen! Maybe she would've if James would've make a move, but for some reason he doesn't.... he likes her, I caught him looking at her... he's probably thinks he has no chance... Yeah, she is a Princess after all...

I turned to look at James, but he was ahead of us and I couldn't see his face. He came to a big tree branch that was hanging too low on our path, and pulled it aside, holding it and waiting for rest of us pass. His eyes met Alexia's and both quickly looked away. After I pass by him, James let tree branch go, and I saw him sigh, lowering his head. I'm working on it, I just need more time, more time and... and I need an ally.

I looked at Kirk, and almost burst in laughter, when I saw that his gorgeous brown eyes were locked on my lips. At the last moment he saw a tree branch coming at him and tried to avoid it, but it slapped him across his chest. He moved it aside and looked at me with a self conscious smile as I let a little giggle out. So... you like me biting my lips, do you? I would gladly let you bite them. How can you be so blind and don't see how much I want you to make your move? Grrr! We're running out of time... I have to take a lead. For all of us.

My mind returned to my plans. Okay, what else can I do? I looked around, trying to get some kind of idea and almost jumped when I noticed a bright leafed vine, that was climbing up on the side of tree. Is it?.. Yes it is! The Gods are with me!

I slowed down my horse, pretending to be fixing my straps and when my companions pass me, I quickly grabbed the plant, ripping it off the tree and hiding it under my cape. Now all I need to do is wait for the night. My face lit with a secret smile as I hurried my horse to keep up with the others.

Soon we came to an opening between trees, a perfect spot to set up camp for the night. I was in a great mood, if my evil plan work, it would get two deeds at once! Hehehe...

---

As night settled our camp, I snuck from under covers, trying not to make any noise and made my way to our horses. They were peacefully grazing under the moonlight, unaware of what I was about to do. I pulled the plant that I found earlier from under my shirt, wrapping it around a a piece of bread, that I managed to hide at dinner.

I learned about this plant from my father, he was taking care of horses at the castle in Chersoness. In small dose it would made horses sleepy, but a bigger dose makes them crazy. In a few minutes this plant will reach the horse's blood, and hallucinations will chase it far away from our camp. I walked up to my horse and it turned, happily snorting at the smell of the treat.

“Don't get caught, find yourself a herd and live long free life.” My hands slid on the horse's face and neck, saying goodbye. I took the reins off the horse's head and gave it a hard slap on the rear, watching it buck, sprinting into darkness.

Now we're down one horse. We have to find a village to replace it and two of us will have to share one horse until then, making us rest more frequently.

Am I evil or what? I smiled to myself and made my way back to camp with an accomplished feeling.

:biggrin

More.








(Alex POV)

Another night, another visit to strange world far in the future. It wasn't scaring me any longer, my mind learned to live two separate lives. One of Princess of Cheroness ove of the Alex Troy. Not much was happening in San Francisco, me and a future Meg were planning a trip to Europe later in the summer. Her father was going with us, to visit a carnival in Venice. I decided not to tell my companions anything about my other world, knowing that they wouldn't understand it. I couldn't understand it, I didn't know how or why it was happening to me. All I knew, if this would continue, at least I would have an escape from my soon-to-be hard life, with a man I would never love. My eyes stopped on James and I sighed. I wish James was there with me...

Kirk came back with three horses and a puzzled look on his face, interrupting my thoughts.

“I only found three... I have no idea what happened to Meg's horse... no sight of it anywhere...”

I quickly turned and looked at Meg, but she had already put a surprised look on her face. I just knew she did it, she was up to something, I knew her. She turned with an innocent look.

“I guess we'll just have to share one horse...”

That's what she was up to! She knows too much about horses, and the only one that could carry the extra weight for a long time was Kirk's Arabian stallion. I smiled, Meg you don't want to waste any time do you? Let's see how long it will take before Kirk goes absolutely crazy with your body so close to his. I smiled at my thoughts. She returned my smile and I saw victory sparkles in her eyes. I will miss her... Maybe I needed to follow her advice and let my guard down and enjoy our time together.

James gave me a hand to get on my horse and I held on to him a bit longer than I needed. Why couldn't I be like Meg, just let myself go... I imagined his strong arms around me... his blue gaze warmed up my blood. But my damned consciousness woke up, splashing my body with a bucket of cold water. Was my selfish desire to be with him a fair price for his broken heart? No... I couldn't do that to him... I couldn't... I let go of his hand and took hold of the reins, my heart sunk watching him walk away. I sighed to his back barely whispering.

“I fell for you... but you will never know that...” Tears clouded my vision and I hit the sides of my horse, sending it to a gallop. The sooner I get to my destination, the better it would be for everyone.
