"Watch out !" Arthur shouted, and not not too soon as his playmate had almost smashed into the two young ladies walking by.

"What is the meaning of this?" Guinevere snapped. "Don't you people walk" she continued in disgust. "Hush now, no harm done" Morgana said subtly as she pulled her aggravated sister to her side.

She stared amiably at Arthur as he drew closer to the three of them.

"Ahh ...'you people'? Arthur repeated quizzically as he met Guinevere's gaze. "I'm sure she meant nothing by it...hi I'm Lance this is Arthur" Lancelot said putting himself between Guinevere and Arthur whilst extending a hand.

"Did I ask for an introducti..." Guinevere started but was cut off in mid sentence by her sister. "This is Guinevere and I'm Morgana." Morgana said still staring intently at Arthur; who hasn't yet shifted his battle gaze from Guinevere.

The four students stood, staring at each other their facial expressions giving away their intent as the air grew thick around them.

"Well we best be going, don't want to be late for our first day of school"  Morgana said breaking the deafening silence. "Yes, that's quiet right sir  LaFont hates when we're late, let's go Arthur." Lance pushed and then pulled Arthur until there was safe distance between themselves and the two ladies.

"Hey calm down, they were just frightened." Lancelot said "and that gives her the reason to speak down to us" Arthur responded with the word her rolling off is tongue like a bad taste. "No, but, that gave us a reason to be introduced" Lancelot came back.

They both smiled "I would have to be a mad man, or worse, to be involved with 'those people' " Arthur reported. They continued on there way to class.

Lancelot and Arthur had been close friends for as long as they can remember. There was no one closer to Arthur except his brother. They completely trusted each other and was by themself great but together greater.
