Well, I would like to thank every, single one of my readers. Your reviews and subscriptions keep me writing. I might be writing more now that I have more of a rhythm to my life. And now without further ado…By the way, for those who want to know what Fynnian looks like I will be posting a drawing of her face on my profile as soon as I complete it, it may or may not be finished before this chapter. Also for this chapter, I figure they were in the stocks for most of the night as well as at least part of the next day. I also think that the battle would have started very early in the morning.
Most of this is a filler chap, I can't find my book or my movie for this. Please be patient dear readers!
Chapter 3
I was stuck next to Will in the row of stocks. I turn to look at the others and laugh. I can see John from where I am and his butt is actually touching the ground.
"What are you even doing here?" John looks at me and asks.
"They know I'm your brother, they thought it would be smarter to put me here than let me go into battle."
"What does that have to do with anything?" Will whisper/shouted, clearly confused.
"I don't know, maybe they think I'm going to go after the king for revenge or something." This answer was rewarded with a glare from Robin. "Who knows, maybe it will work out for the best."
"How's that Fynn?" Allen asks, besides John, he is the one who seems to openly care about me the most.
"I don't know Allen, but something has to go right eventually, right?" We all became quiet for a while. I thought of the men going into battle in the morning and prayed that Jimmy would be ok. It tortured me to know that I wouldn't be out there watching his back, making sure he was ok. I started to think about what would happen if the men found out my secret, about what would happen to John for keeping my secret. "Robin?" I asked after a while.
"Yes Fynn." I saw him glance in my direction.
"What would happen if a girl were to disguise herself as a boy and join the king's army?" I didn't have to look at John to know he was glaring at me. "I mean, what would be the consequences if she were to get caught?"
Robin seemed to think on my question over for a bit, before answering. "Well Fynn, she would be hopefully sent home, but she could be killed or kept as a…" Robin didn't finish his sentence before Will jumped in.
"What kind'o question is that Fynnian? It seems a bit, I don't know, out there to me."
"It's nothing, forget I asked." If Will started picking at my questions then my secret would be found out for sure, but I still wanted to know what would happen to John. I didn't ask another question until I knew Will was asleep "What would happen to someone if they kept that girl's secret?" I asked Robin because I knew he was the only other person awake.
Robin answered after a moment of hesitation. "The person could be killed or kicked out of the army, but it really depends on how powerful they are in the army. Fynnian, why are you asking this?"
I took a deep breath, "I just want to protect John." Robin's eyes seemed to double in size. "Robin please don't say anything!" Robin chuckled.
"Fynn, I figured you weren't a boy, I was just waiting for you to tell us. I also know that your secret is safe." I felt like crying, both because I was happy Robin had known and not said anything and because I was afraid that if Robin knew my secret than whom else had figured it out?
"How do you know my secret is safe Robin? If you have figured it out then who is to say that someone else, not in our little group, hasn't." I know I should be more trusting and less paranoid but it's not just me that I'm worried about but also John and now Robin. They could be killed for keeping my secret!
I know that it's really short and that I have not posted in quite a bit, but please be patient my readers! I have to finish a mythology essay but then I will be able to focus solely on my fics!
