Diamond hung back in the crowd watching the tailor shop. She was waiting for the signal. Ivan appeared in the door scanning the street then shaking his head went back inside. Diamond relaxed, that wasn't the signal they had agreed on. She looked around trying to appear like she was just taking a walk. She noticed that soldiers were gathering in the streets and she began to get cold feet. I can't do this... not with this many soldiers around. Still no sign of that boy... Alex. Guess I'm not going to be able to tell him the plan. Suddenly, she noticed Ivan standing in the door of the tailor shop again. This time he was looking straight at her. When she met his eyes he nodded once and disappeared inside once more. Diamond swallowed Well, that was the sign. Now's better than never. She weaved across the street and rushed into the tailor shop. A woman screamed when she saw Diamond and Diamond looked around the shop. She saw Ivan's eyes flick towards the counter and her eyes landed on the lock box on the counter. She dashed to the counter, snatched up the box and turned running for the door. Ivan lunged for her, but missed.
Diamond burst out the door into the sun brightened street. Ivan followed her to the door shouting and pointing at her, "Thief! Soldiers! Thief! She's stolen from Father!"
The soldier's reacted faster than Ivan and Diamond had expected. Some went after her on foot while others mounted horses and rode after her. She tossed the lock box aside and ran faster. A soldier lunged for her catching her around the knees taking her to the ground. The breath was knocked from her body. Someone dragged her to her feet and another soldier raised a hand to strike her. She tried to bring her arms up to ward off the blow but found her arms held firmly. The blow landed on her cheek and all she could get out was a stiffled sob.
"Don't strike her again, soldier."
Diamond was never so glad to hear Ivan's voice. She looked up and saw him approaching with the lock box under his arm. He cast one concerned glance at her before turning to the soldier who was speaking, "What's it to you how I treat a thief?"
Ivan gave the soldier a thunderous look, "She stole from me so therefore I have the right to say how to treat her."
The soldier blinked, then sneered, "How would you like her treated then?"
Ivan turned to Diamond looking her over. He frowned slightly at the red hand print on her cheek then stated matter of factly, "I want her in solitary confinement until the trial."
"Trial?" When Ivan glared at the soldier and the soldier bowed beneath his glare, "Very well, sir, solitary confinement it shall be."
Ivan turned, "And I shall inspect it as soon as I am able to."
The soldier's bowed again before pushing Diamond along.

Sorry that I have not posted in a long time 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Emily was walking around the town square she wanted to find some silk to make a shawl to go with her dress for the ball.
All of a sudden a girl rushed past her and threw a lockbox aside trying to get away from the soldiers that were following her. She continued walking and came to a store that sold silk. 'This looks like a nice place' thought Emily to herself. Walking in and seeing nobody around she called out "Is anybody here?" She walked back to the counter and started to pick up some fabric that was left on the counter, when all of a sudden she heard someone walk into the store. She looked back and a young man stood there, it was the red knight! "Well hello Emily, What a surprise to see you here. Getting ready for the Ball I presume. Have you already been asked? And what are you doing without a body guard?"
"Well John, hello." replied Emily blushing. "Yes I wanted to get some fabric to make a shawl to go with my dress. And as for being asked to the ball as of yet I have not. And I did not bring a body guard because I did not want to."
"Well, in since you have not been asked would you go with me to the ball?" John asked with a bow.
"Yes, I will"
"Okey than I will see you then. Do you want me to walk you home?"
"No that is okey, I still waiting for a worker to get some fabric. But I will see you at the ball."
"Okey later."
After watching John leave Emily thought to herself "I wounder where the workers are."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Okey called, up to you I do not know when you are getting back

"Hmm, might as well see if Diamond did her job" Alex said to no one.
Alex walked to the shop, and asked Ivan if Fern was there.
"Uh, yes" Ivan said.
Alex sighed.
"I want to tell you something, Ivan said.
...
After Ivan told Alex the plan, Alex sighed with relief.
"Are you sure this will work?" Alex asked.
"Yes, partly" Ivan said with a troubled hint in his voice.
"What? Partly?" Alex asked.
"Never mind. I have to check on Diamond" Ivan said leaving.

Sorry all I got :shrug:

Fern appeared in the shop looking around. She saw Ivan and Alex standing by the door and smiled at Alex before looking up at Ivan, "Did something just happen, Ivan? I thought I heard you yelling."
Ivan smiled at her, "A thief tried to steal Father's life's savings."
Fern blinked, "In broad daylight?"
Ivan shrugged placing the box back behind the counter, "The thief was apprehended. I asked for a trial."
"A trial? Ivan, you can't be serious. The soldiers caught the thief and you know as well as I do what the penalty is for stealing."
She saw a frown flicker across his forehead, "It's a young thief. I'm hoping they will turn from thievery. Watch the shop, Fern, I've got to go check the dungeon."
Fern sighed nodding, "I'll watch the shop. Be careful, Ivan."
Ivan smiled heading towards the door, "I know you would. Good day, Alex."
Fern turned speaking to Ivan before he left, "I guess a trial mean Father will have to stay."
Ivan nodded once and left the shop.
******
Once out on the street Ivan sighed running a hand through his hair. The crowd was back to normal, constantly changing yet always the same. Ivan directed his steps towards the dungeon, head bowed in thought. How am I going to get Diamond out? I've got to get her out with both her hands intact. He quickened his pace and entered the dungeon.
The dungeon was a dank, dreary place. Cold stone kept the heat of summer out and the cold of winter in. There was only one season in the dungeons. Winter. Ivan shivered as the heavy iron door slammed closed behind him. The dungeon master approached Ivan trying to appear friendly, "Ah, my lord, a pleasure you've decided to stop by today-"
Ivan spoke cutting off his words, "Where's the girl?"
The dungeon master blinked, "The girl? Oh, that girl. Follow me."
Ivan followed wordlessly as the dungeon master rattled on. Ivan ignored him, too occupied with his own thoughts. They went down steps until they got to the lower level. Ivan looked around curiously, "Down here?"
The dungeon master frowned, "Yes. Anyway, this girl's an odd one. Never says a word, shows no emotion. None of the normal 'I'm innocent' speeches. She just sits there."
"There are rats down here."
"Of course. This is their favorite place. That girl just watches them. Not uttering a word."
Ivan waved his hand in annoyance, "Enough. You may go. I wish to speak with the girl alone."
The dungeon master gave Ivan a surprised look but handed him the key with a bow, "As you wish."
Ivan pulled the door open, it creaking louding on its rusted hinges. Diamond looked up blandly without a word.

the end!

Diamond heard voices outside her cell, but ignored them. She was surprised to hear the door unlock and ceak open. She looked up and saw Ivan enter the cell. She leapt to her feet throwing her arms around him, sobbing. Ivan took her by the shoulders pulling her back. Tears streamed down Diamond's cheeks and great sobs shook her body. Ivan was relieved to see that Diamond still had both her hands, "There, there Diamond, everything's going to be all right-"
Diamond was close to hysteria, "Do you know what they do to thieves? They cut off their hands for punish-"
Ivan gave her a slight shake, "Shh...shhh, nothing's going to happen."
Diamond's mouth snapped shut cutting off a wail. Tears leaked from her eyes but she remained silent. Her head drooped in defeat and she shook with sobs she held back, "What's Jack going to think of me now?"
Ivan looked down at her, startled, "Jack? Who's Jack?" She looked up at him. He never thought he'd see so many emotions going through someone's eyes. "Never mind. You won't get injured. You'll be free as a bird in a few days. I promise." Ivan turned to leave pausing at the door before he left, "You hide too often, Diamond."
Diamond looked at him, her eyes full of fear speaking softly, "Apparently, I don't hide enough. Do me a favor, Ivan. Tell Jack where I am. Please?"
"Of course. Get some sleep, Diamond."
The door closed firmly and Diamond heard the lock click. She stood in the middle of the cell, alone, frightened.

Ivan left the dungeon. He felt depressed, the coldness of the dungeon seemed to have seeped into him. Where's this Jack. Where does one start looking for him?
"John! John wait up!"
Ivan turned and saw Emily weaving her way through the crowd with her hand up raised. She stopped in front of him and he smiled down at her bowing slightly, "Good day, m'lady. What a pleasant surprise to see you twice in one day. What can I do?"
Emily blushed, "I was worried. I didn't see you at the tournament and I thought you had been injured."
Ivan smiled down at her holding out his arms to show that he was in one piece, "My dear Emily, have no fears. I am still whole. Rest easy for I do not compete again until after the ball."
Emily put a hand to her heart smiling up at him, "That is reassuring, John. What are you doing till then?"
Ivan frowned thoughtfully, "Family business, but rest assured, I will be here for the ball. I promise."
Emily sighed, "Thank you, I shall await. Till then, fare well."
Ivan bowed, a slight bend at the waist, and watched her leave. He turned back, searching the crowd. Now to find Jack.

Fern glared at Alex, "This thievery has something to do with you doesn't it?"
Alex blinked, "No, I knew nothing about it. Honestly."
Fern searched his face, then nodded, "I believe you, but Ivan must know something..."
Father entered the tailor shop, "Good day, daughter, young deWinslette."
"Hello Father!"
"Greetings... uh... sir."
Father walked around the shop checking his items as Alex and Fern watched. Fern cleared her throat, "You heard about the robbery attempt, Father?"
Father frowned looking at the two of them thoughtfully before shaking his head, "Aye, and that boy decided to curse me with a trial. I'm now stuck here. If I thought you two capable of such a scheme I... " he sighed, "but I don't think you'd ever think of using people."
Father walked away shaking his head muttering under his breath, "But Ivan... Ivan has too many harmless tricks up his sleeve. Too many for his own good."

Alex and Fern looked at one another blankly for a second.
Then Alex grinned, and Fern almost jumped and shouted.
"Come on, Fern" Alex said.
"Why?" Fern asked.
"To find Ivan" Alex winked and whispered.
They walked out and saw Ivan.
"I don't know what you did but it worked!" Alex joked.
"Well, now we have to get the girl who helped outta jail" Ivan said.
"So, what do we do?" Fern asked.
