[ModNote: Continued from Swapping Stories.] *Arrives outside the room she's staying in tonight. She opens the door with the key, enters the room then shuts the door and locks it from the inside. She dumps her bag and the goblin horn on the bed and looks round the room, admiring the decor and the view from the window. She sits down on the bed, contemplating the situation and starts to mouth off as quietly as possible* "To think I was nearly the victim of that creep! He's even worse than Julius Scaramonger or Honesty Bartram and me, being a MAJOR Knightmare fan, should have seen the signs of a scam artist a mile off! Meh, I'm really MAD with him now! If it hadn't been for my new friends, then I'd probably be fighting off goblins by now! I am SO going to keep an eye on Nesty now, I have a strong feeling he might be in league with the opposition, after all, that's what happened with Julius and Honesty Bartram..." *calms down and goes over to the window. Wolfenden centre is instantly recognisable to her and she looks over to the other houses there. Suddenly, the Knightmare fan in her takes over as it eventually sinks in where she is* "OMG, OMG, OMG!!! I'm in Wolfenden...and, and, I'm in the middle of all the great Knightmare characters I love!" *squeals* "Could I BE any more excited? I have GOT to get Hordriss' autograph - I can't believe I didn't think of it when I was talking to him....eek, what an idiot I am! I'll need to get his autograph ASAP - after all, I'm a major fan of his! Brother Strange is cool too, in fact I need to start autograph hunting...ooh, what if I'm involved in a dungeoneer's quest? Oh. My. Gawwwwddd!!

*yawns*
"Well, I'd better get off to bed now, 'cause I'm absolutely bushed, what with being transported to...well, Knightmare land! Jeez, it's almost as if dimensional barriers are being broken down..."
"Tomorrow, I'll look for a job - preferrably as an apprentice sorceress - and go on a tour of Wolfenden. Oh, and I need to make everyone see that I ain't a dungeoneer - I'm 23 for cryin' out loud!" *shrugs* "Although being a dungeoneer would be well cool!" *yawns again* "Oh well, as Zebedee from The Magic Roundabout would've said: "Time for bed!" ".
*suddenly she hears something out the window and goes to investigate - two figures are standing in the street below, talking in whispers...she strains to hear*
"What the...?"

*Presently a dark shadow appers at the window. Silently it picks the lock on the window and slips into the room. It moves quikley over to the bed checks that DG is asleep the depsoits a note beside her on the pillow.*
<The Note reads.>
BEWARE
Defiey the will of Fear and his vengence and great wrath will stike ye down.
*The figure quikley departs through the window closes it and is gone.*
(OOC: This is not the start of a storyline. The Opposition is mearly trying to intimidate Julia.)

*jumps into bed as she hears something approaching and pretends to be asleep...hears a noise at the window and lies still until she hears nothing more, then gets out of bed and goes to the window* *seeing the note* "What the...? A note, for me?" *reads note* "What does he mean by defying his will? If he hasn't told me what his will is then how am I supposed to know when I'm defying it? Sheesh!" *shakes head* "And despite me knowing and loving this land, it still wasn't my choice in coming here - for one thing, I'm far too old to be a dungeoneer. There's no rule that says every human from my land has to be a dungeoneer, is there?" *crumples up note into a ball and tosses it into the corner of the room* "Meh...that's woken me up now. Think I'll read the book I brought with me for a bit". *gets book out of bag...it's 'Dreamcatcher' by Stephen King* { O.O.C. Lol, I wouldn't mind if I was kidnapped by Lord Fear, I am a big fan of his, so DG must be too...although she doesn't want to admit it! }

"Yeah, I'm awake...something disturbed me earlier on and now I can't get to sleep so I'm reading a book. I'm a bit nervous now actually, someone left me a threatning note on my window. Hold on and I'll unlock the door."
*Gets up and unlocks door*

*At the door was the comical figure of Tom Troughton. Julia hadn't realised when she'd seen him down staires just how funny he looked. What with a coat a size to big for him, Blue and green checked trousers, a mop of brown hair, twinkleing brown eyes and a mischefious but freindly grin. He was hardly what she thought a magician should look like.*
"I thought I'd come check on you my dear, whats that you said about a threatning note?"

"Well, just as I was going to bed, I heard someone down in the street whispering to someone. I tried to listen but they were speaking too quietly for me to make out what they were saying...but it sounded suspicious to me. Then I heard something coming to the window and hid under the bed covers...I heard something scratching and waited 'til it had disappeared before I dared move. Then I saw the note on the window and read it...it's from Lord Fear. I threw it in the corner after I read it, it's still there..."
*picks up crumpled note and unfolds it*
"Apparantly, if I defy his will then I'll be in trouble. But the thing is, I don't know what his will is to start with! I bet he thinks I'm another dungeoneer or something, even when I'm far too old to be one! What do you make of it?"
*hands note to Tom*

*Tom takes the note.*
"Hmmmm, hang on a sec."
*He rumages through his pockets pulling out.
A Catapult.
A Ball of string.
A ping pong ball and bat.
"Ar Ha found it."
*He pulls out a magnifing glass, puts the other stuff back and studies the note.*
"Hmmmm Yes, Definatly a ligit Opposition warrning note. I would imagin your freind Nesty informed Lord Fear of your presence here and Fear not wishing to take any chances has decided to try and scare you off, rather then try out and out kidnapp for the moment."
"At least I would think you'll be safe here, but remember I'm just two rooms away, should your 'visitor come back, use my calling name. Ok."
"By The way what book are you reading?"

"So he wants to scare me away, does he? Well, he's not going to, I'm not that easy a target. *says this nervously* Still, it's good having people like you around looking out for me. I wouldn't mind becoming a sorceress actually, then I'd feel I was more of a match for him"
*shows Tom the book*
"It's a really good book this...about a group of childhood friends and alien invasion. It's called Dreamcatcher and it's a Stephen King book. I've read it already but I wanted to read it again."
[LOL, in reality I'm reading the first book in the His Dark Materials trilogy, Northern Lights]

"Sounds very fasinating. Well as long as your ok, I'll leave you in peace." "I'll take this with me." *He holds up the note.* "I dought they'll try anything right away but just be on the look out for Opposition minnions." "Well Goodnight my dear." *Tom shakes Julia hand and walks out closeing the door behind him.* [ModNote: Returning to Swapping Stories.]

{Sorry I've been missing for a few days, I had family staying as well as having a cold - both of those messed up my PC routine}
"Goodnight sir" *closes door*
"Hmm, well I'd better try and get to sleep because I'm going to try and get a job somewhere in Wolfenden tomorrow and I don't want to be tired"
*goes to bed and is soon out like a light*
{Any suggestions as to what to do next - I'm a bit stuck!}

*[Julia awakes with a start to the howling roar of the wind. Glancing towards the window, she notices it lying open, the ragged curtain flapping in the gale like the submissive progeny of a demented puppeteer. Perhaps this unholy storm has blown the window open, and is even now driving out what heat there was in the room, sending shivers down her spine. But with the warnings from Fear's minions still troubling her, a small but very paranoid part of her whispers altogether more sinister theories into her ear.]* [*Wrapping the bedlinen around her for warmth, Julia sits up in her bed. As she does so, she hears three loud thumps from the street below, even through the driving wind and rain. A voice rings out from the darkness: "Hallo in there?"]* *[>>> continued in The Wolf's Howl Inn: Shelter For A Stranger.]*
