The Dress

Garroth's POV

I know she probably isn't her, Ender was an old friend of Zane's, but she's been missing for about five years now why would she come here now. Does she know I'm Zane's older brother? No, that can't be it, what drew her to this village of all places though? Was Zane really chasing her or is she a spy for him, I can't think about all of this right now I need to help Aphmau get the village ready for Donna and Logan's wedding.

Ender's POV

I was still in my hiding spot in the tree looking out on to the ocean when Laurence mentioned a wedding, was the real reason we were coming here for the wedding? I can't be sure but it's at least a hunch, I might want to get a dress for the wedding, I heard Cadenza likes to sow now....

"It's beautiful!" I said, Cadenza had finished my dress and wanted to make sure it fit.

"I'm glad you like it, the wedding is tomorrow I wanted to make sure it fit so if it didn't I could fix it." Cadenza replied, she was an excellent seamstress but her build was a fighter's she's a really easy person to under estimate.

"You made outfits for everyone in the village?" I asked, with dresses of this quality pulled off for the entire village for me would take about two maybe three months how did she get these in five days, I was scared for the wedding though. Zane was in Phoenix Drop to preside over the wedding, Garroth and myself were reluctant to wear formal attire, well I gave in, because formal attire would show our faces. If Zane saw I was here what would he do to Phoenix Drop?

"I did." Cadenza replied fixing the dress and smoothing wrinkles.

"All of them!" I exclaimed, all of those dresses with this quality.

"Yes, People seem to like them." Cadenza said. "There, you should take the dress off now so it is still in good condition for the wedding tomorrow. Here I'll help you." Cadenza said helping me get out of the dress she made me, I was looking at my under dress, a cream colored knee length dress with a pink ribbon on the front. I really look like this? I didn't know this is what people saw when they looked at me. I thought. "You really are a beautiful person, you know that right?" Cadenza asked.

"Is this what people see when they look at me?" I asked while Cadenza started putting my hair back in a tight braid.

"Yeah, you should keep your helm off." Cadenza said handing me my helm because I was in my armor.

"I will." I replied, I took my helmet in my hand and walked out when I saw Zane. I felt like I could die right there the way he looked at me, that hope in his eyes that I cared about him that look of heartbreak I knew all too well. I put my helm on and walked off, I couldn't see that look from him, seeing him that hurt was worse than seeing him dead.

Zane's POV

I saw her, and she saw me, we stood there looking into each others eyes and she put her helm on

and she walked away, I saw her walk to a guard and they walked off talking. Like old friends, I need to get that guard to take off his helm. The wedding is a perfect opportunity.....
