Chapter 9

*Jordan's Pov*

I get out today. I can leave finally and be free! Andor hasn't left my side since the what happened, nor has Tom and Maddi. Tom gets out today as well.

We all agreed (Tom too) that Andor and I were going to get more followers, three days from now, and bring them here to help with the rebellion.

"Almost ready, Sparklez?" Tom asks me.

"Yea, lets get out of this hospital ASAP" I reply.

*ANDOR'S POV*

"I'm very excited to meet your friends tonight." Dad says confidently, I don't respond. I'm so nervous for Jordan and myself. I can't wait to run off with him. And just for a moment be free!

*JORDAN'S POV*

I put on a white tank with a black button up over it. I really want to try to clear things up with the king. Or at least try to be on his good side. "Sparklez lets go! We're gonna be late!" Tom yells I hadn't even known he came. We walk in silence all the way to the castle. Andor, the king, and a man I haven't heard of appear. Andor gives me a slight smile before going back to his stern look, matching his fathers. "Jordan Sparklez and Tom Cassel correct?"

*ANDOR'S POV*

Jordan shakes Dad's hand then Harold's. "This is the town Harold, he's also the person who keeps my Andor in line!" Eveyone laughs but me. "Now I'm not gonna hold you off any longer! Lets eat."

"So why Mianite?" Tom asks and Jordan grasps my hand under the table. "Why must you ask?" Harold says eyeing dad who eyes me. "Maybe I do, maybe I don't. I was just wondering."

The rest of the dinner is fairly silent. Nothing much more is needed to be said. "Andor walk you friends home. Harold and I need to talk." Dad says giving me my que to leave. After we're all clear from Dad or Harlod's sight, Jordan takes my hand. "That was wonderful." He says smiling. "I can walk myself home." Tom says parting from Jordan and I. Jordan leans against his door and stares into my eyes. Its pretty late so I'm not to worried about anyone catching us kiss. "I can't wait." I whisper giving Jordan a smile. "Me either." Jordan kisses me gently before disappearing behind his door.

Maddi's Pov

Andor brushes my hair gently. I've never cried at a funeral and I'm not about to. I wish he wouldn't go. Of couse it has to be on Valentine's day! Which is suppose to be a happy and loving day, right? I wish Andor would stay and be safe. He finishes off the waterfall braid that's kept him occupied for the past 30 minutes. I turn and Andor pulls out two purple butterfly hiar clips. "Your mother loved them. The last time I talked to her, she told me Ianite loved them. I found these and thought of you." He pins them in my hair gently. I let a tear fall, its just me now. Andor pulls me in his arms and lets me cry. "Its okay it happens." A siren goes off, calling everyone to the square.

*ANDOR'S POV*

Dad pulls me from the crowd and stands me next to him. "What's going on?" I ask only to be ignored, the usual I guess. I tune out Harold, he's probably just giving his 'this is why you don't do this' speech. But when I hear gasps I turn back in.

"By the orders of our glorious king, the one called Syndicate is henceforth banished from the town." Harold says, my heart stops, its only been one day and he's already exposed himself!

"What happened?!" Jordan yells pushing to the front of the crowd. His eyes lock with my own. His big, beautiful, dark brown eyes are now puffy and a little pink fron tears.

"Any associations with this heretic and rouge shall be punished! Avoid him of face the consequences." Dad says strongly.

"Forver?!" Jordan pauses "Or just a tempary sentence?"

"Indeed."

"Harold, what are the charges?" I ask as innocently as I can.

"The charge is a failure to adhere to the holy, righteous, and only true god."

"Forgive me but can you tell me who the one true god is?" Jordan adds and my hands start to tremble.

"A visit to the town church should settle any doubts." Harold answers politely.

"No no, this is a matter of identity confirmation." Jordan is dragging the situation! Is he trying to get banded as well!? Just when I thought he was gonna make up his impression on dad.

"I need to be sure you are who you say you are you know." He pauses once again,

"In treacherous times as these."

"You doubt my authority?!" Harold is getting mad very quickly.

"No of couse not! I need to be sure you are the real town Harold. And that you haven't been abducted! For your own safety." Jordan is only digging himself a deeper hole! He's gonna regret this later.

"The Harold follows my orders and mine alone. He acts only upon my orders." Dad says he to raising his tone.

"Why yes King I understand." Its time I jot in!

"Father, I was going to tell the Harold to rely a message back to you." I say pausing. Once I'm sure I have everyone's attention I continue,

"I suppose that will no longer be necessary." I feel anger starting to bubble inside me, threatening to spill out.

"Your violence will not go unanswered." I snap now getting even more of Dad's attention.

"My violence!" Harold yells at me,

"Do not question me Andor, or the Harold." Dad snaps and I can tell he's trying to keep his cool.

"Violence or spirit. Violence of social conduct." I pause,

"Question? I hardly ever question. I know you have gone to far." I snap back at him just as harsh.

"My social conduct is not for you to question." Dad stops, as if he's thinking hard about what to say next.

"You know nothing Andor"

"I know you." I reply staring him dead in the eye.

"I tire of the babblem! I have work to do, remember your place Andor." Harold says rolling his eyes at me.

I bow before Dad, "Helgrind." I say causing a few people to laugh.

"So umm happy Valentine's Day, Amirite!" Jordan adds and everyone begins to scurry off to the funreal. Me and Jordan meet Maddi and masked Tom at the bridge. "Bye Sparklez." Tom says hugging Jordan. Maddi hugs me and I hear her let out a sob. "I'll be back." I assure her. "Remember we're exploring Tom's island!" Jordan yells to Maddi as she runs back to the town. I have trust in Maddi that she can cover for us, successfully. We bought a car from Steve since Jordan's was totalled. Well its a RV, the 2fast2furious RV! Its pretty sick. Jordan opens my door for me and we set off on just the start of our amazing adventure.
