(Violet, you haven't said anything have you?)

(No Danielle, But why is it importnat that I don't?)

(Because if you do Trap nad his dragon may die. None of us want that)

(Agreed, Danielle)

Danielle looked back at Sandor. "Damn it, Sandor. He's been gone over two 
years. When is he coming back?"

"Soon, Danielle" Sandor said "Now that his sister is here he'll want to 
come back."

"His sister...." Danielle looked puzzled, then gasped "That new rider, Tera."

Sandor nodded.

"But Sandor, how could he? How could he leave....the warren?" Danielle 
asked, all the while crying inside "How could he leave ME?"

"He thought he could help and catch the raiders. He might still do it. He 
thought this was how he could help his "Family"" Sandor said. "Danielle, 
please don't say anything. It could get him killed."

Danielle looked back at him, hardness coming to her eyes. "Sandor, even 
if I never cared for Trap, I wouldn't do that to someone from the warren. 
How could you even think that?"

Sandor started to say something but Danielle interrupted "I won't say 
anything, but you have to promise me something......don't tell him I 
know. Don't tell his sister or anyone. If you have to tell Ophelia, I'll 
understand, but noone else."

Sandor nodded, but looked puzzled. "Why Danielle?"

"Thats my business, Sandor. If you tell anyone I know, I will blow this 
scheme wide open, and to hell with the consequences!" Danielle said angrily.

"Alright, Danielle, if thats the way you want it" Sandor said.

"It is" Danielle said "Now if you'll excuse me....." Danielle headed out 
the door.

"Danielle?" Sandor softly called after her "Don't think too badly of 
Trap. He's only done what he thought best."

Danielle opened the door and then turned back to face Sandor. She had 
tears streaming down her face. "Best for who, Sandor? Best for who?" She 
then turned and fled out the door.
