2x06 (Story A) - Hard to explain

AfterRand left the Damodred residence, Moiraine is devastated and decides to writeSiuan a letter. But finding the right words is hard.

Quote: "If she sees us together again, she'll kill you." (Rand)

Tiredly, Moiraine watched the young man from the Two Rivers sleeping peacefully. She was still surprised he had agreed to go to sleep and meet Lanfear. For a while now, she watched him, waiting for him to show any signs of distress – or any sign at all that would tell her she needed to wake him. But there was nothing.

Was Lanfear with him? Or had she made a mistake? Was the daughter of the night not waiting for them in their dreams?

Angry with herself, the Aes Sedai shook her head. What was she thinking? The Forsaken had looked for Rand and lived with him for months – she didn't want to think about what else they had done while they had been alone. And then she had tried to separate him from other people by bringing him up to that hut in the mountains. No, Lanfear was with Rand right now. But why did he look so peaceful? Wasn't she pissed that he went with Moiraine? She couldn't possibly be happy about him slipping through her fingers.

Moiraine's eyes closed for a moment, and the darkness lured her to embrace it. It felt wonderful to stop forcing... shocked, the woman of the Blue Ajah forced her eyes back open. Swaying, she grabbed the bedpost to prevent herself from falling. Blood and ashes! It hadn't taken much, and she had given in to sleep!

Angrily, she walked up and down to bring new life into her body. She couldn't allow herself to sleep. If anything went wrong, she had to wake Rand before Lanfear could hurt him. The boy trusted her to be there.

Once she was certain not to give in to sleep again, Moiraine returned to her former position beside the bed, staring at the Dragon Reborn. A part of her envied him for being able to sleep. She would love to sleep as well. It was exhausting to force herself to stay awake. How long would she be able to keep fighting?

Suddenly, Rand furrowed his forehead for a moment, pulling Moiraine's full attention on him. Was that what she had been waiting for? Should she wake him now?

Debating with herself, the Cairhien woman wrapped her arms around her middle, her hands moving restlessly. Light, what should she do? Was it too early to step in, or was she waiting too long? She couldn't risk losing the Dragon Reborn to a Forsaken.

Moiraine winced when Rand opened his eyes. She hadn't expected him to wake on his own, and definitely not so soon. Was that a trick? Was Lanfear playing with her? Was it possible the daughter of the night controlled the boy now through his dream? Would she be strong enough to control the Dragon Reborn? Rand had no control over his power. He was no match against the power of a Forsaken.

Rand turned his head toward her, looking her in the eye. Nothing indicated that he wasn't himself. Was it a trick from Lanfear? Or was he still Rand?

She decided to risk playing the game when he sat upright, hoping it wasn't a mistake. "What did she say?"

But Rand simply shook his head. "I have to go."

Surprised, Moiraine watched how he passed her. Go? What was he talking about? "Where? Did she tell you where-?"

"No. Away from you. That was her condition."

The Aes Sedai almost laughed. Of course, the Forsaken wanted Rand to leave her, returning to his lover's arms. She should've expected that.

"If she sees us together again, she'll kill you."

Immediately, the boy had Moiraine's attention. Lanfear wanted to kill her. It wasn't a shock since the Aes Sedai had tried to kill the daughter of the night. But would she truly stop just because Rand wasn't by her side? Moiraine doubted Lanfear was so easy to calm. The boy was a fool for believing his former lover. Or was the woman scared about what kind of influence Moiraine had on the Dragon Reborn? Light, she wished she would know what kind of influence she had on him!
