Chatterbox: Inkwell

Ok, here is a preview of a story I'm writing. All ideas copyrighted by me, ok?

Working title is "The Keepers: Azorica"

The Keepers rise again............... 

Azorica scrambled out of her bed. She hurried through the kitchen, grabbing a piece of toast as she ran by, and panted a quick good morning to the rest of her family. "Sorry, Mother, I'm late again.", she yelled over her shoulder as she opened the front door. "Wait, where'd Tulle go!?", she suddenly muttered, backtracking. She looked in her room. Hovering uncertainly above her bed was a small sphere of light. "Tulle, you'd better hurry up!", Azorica told it, and ran back through the house, making sure it was following her. "Why the hurry?", the sphere of light said, whining. "Because, Tulle, you didn't wake me up like you were supposed to and we have about five minutes to get to Training. And if we don't get there in time, I'll make sure that Blade knows that it's your fault.", Azorica yelled. The light dimmed worriedly. "Oh. Right.", Tulle said, and darted forwards. Azorica ran alongside the light, panting. Finally they reached a large building and stopped, panting. "We made it.", Azorica panted. She slowly opened the door and slipped inside. "Hey Blade, I'm not late am I? If I am you can blame Tulle. He didn't wake me up when he was supposed to.", she said hurriedly, as a teenaged boy started towards her, his mouth half-opening. "All right, Zori. I'll let you off this time. But Tulle, it sounds like you need a check-over. I'll get Lenore on that while you warm up, okay Zori?" he laughed. Azorica nodded gratefully, then walked into the other room, where some other young elves like herself were sparring with staffs. "Hey, Lenore, Blade wants you to check Tulle, he didn't wake me up this morning.", she called to the one other girl in the room. Lenore nodded. "Right. I'll be on that right away!", she answered as she went into the first room. Azorica grinned. "Oh, and Clovic, what do you want to be beaten up with first? Staffs or practice swords?", she asked her fighting partner, a boy about a year or so older than her. He groaned. "How about some target practice first?", he said innocently. Azorica sniggered. "Ooh, you're not scared of being beaten up by a girl, are you? I promise I won't break anything!", she taunted him as she grabbed a bow. "All right, show me the target!", she said, and shot the arrow towards the target. "Whoops! Qiu, watch it! I nearly had that shot!", she complained as one of the other Keepers darted forwards and caught the arrow mid-flight. Just another typical day. As much as you could expect when you were a Keeper.
