Nothing's ever too good... ((Dawn))

[kris]

Kris stopped at the door as Dawn entered the classroom to break off this little party. Kris had already had his fun so this was going to be Dawn’s show. Besides he could probably learn something here. Dawn was good – Kris had heard it and he had seen evidence to back the reputation up.
Hearing Dawn’s words Kris pushed off from the door-frame that he had been leaning against and stepped in, closing the door behind her quietly. Kris glanced at the chair Dawn had sent skidding over the floor and turning it over sat on it to enjoy the show.

Watching one of the guys fall into a wall Kris raised an eye-brow and made a mental note to never order Dawn. Suggestions would have to do it. That crash had looked painful. The rest didn’t look bad either. Kris was still eyeing the three when Dawn stepped next to him.
“Entertainment? Hmm, I guess you call it that,” finally Kris turned his head and sent a sly wink towards Dawn, “I would give one more rose, but I don’t think a rose – or even a couple of roses – would quite equal up to the enjoyment I got while watching you at work. So I won’t applaude, nor offer chocolate or flowers as they just wouldn’t be up to the occasion this time.”

Standing Kris sent the door further with a careless kick and opened the door with a flourishing bow: “After you, my lady.”

"Quiet entertaining to me." Dawn laughed as the boy kept dancing. As Kris kept talking Dawn grinned. "Such a grand compliment. Why, thank you." She said as she nodded her head to him with a grin. Following him towards the door, she walked in front of him as he held the door. "So, where is that place you said to go to awhile back? I had my fun, and I assume you had your own. So, now a break should be in store." She said as she yawned slightly. "And sitting down would be quite nice." Turning back to the stair case wher they came from Dawn began to walk down the flight of stairs as they quickly changed routes. Her body pushed up against the hand rale as her hip hit the bar. "Of course." she said irritated as she pushed off the bar and rubbed his side. Dawn stopped walking As she waited for Kris to catch up. "I think... yes. We are going to floor five. What floor were we suppost to go to?" she asked as she looked up at Kris.

(( Short, I know. But Once we get somewhere. I'll write better. ))

Kris stood as they both walked into the hallway again. They had just stepped onto the stair-case when it shifted. Grabbing onto the railing Kris managed to keep her balance even though Dawn seemed to hit her hip. Glancing at her, but deciding against commenting Kris stepped off on the fifth floor. “The courtyard is on the second floor. Come, I know a shortcut to there,” Kris said glancing around to see where they were. Turning to the left Kris lead the way down the hallway, turned the corner and walked down this hallway as well . One more turning the corner and Kris raised the tapestry they had came to, revealing a small trap door.
“It goes all the way to the dungeons, with a secret door on every floor. Sixth floor is the highest it goes though.”
Kris used the hidden staircase to move from some class to the other quickly sometimes. Besides this one never changed.

Stepping through first Kris walked down the spiraling staircase easily, avoiding the bit broken steps with ease that showed how often he had walked here. Opening the door at second floor Kris moved out and held the tapestry away until Dawn was off the stair-case as well. As Dawn didn’t know the way still, Kris turned and moved down the hallway, taking two turns to the right and one to the left under reaching a statue of an unicorn standing in an alcove.
“Just pull the left leg up and the door opens,” Kris said with a small grin, leaning down to take the unicorns hoof and pulled it up as the statues knee bended and quietly a door opposite the statue opened, “And you’re in.”

Stepping through the open door Kris walked a bit further from the door that closed behind Dawn and crouched to create and pet small creatures that had rushed over to greet him. Kris often came here. “To open the door just touch that tree-stump next to it. I’ve never seen anyone around here but me and the most dangerous creature here is an old three-legged unicorn, but unicorns usually like fair maidens,” Kris said with a grin as the old unicorn – and he did look very old, even for an unicorn – limped out of the few trees, “Besides he got used to me after failing to stab me through with his horn.”
Standing Kris stood and walked to the unicorn nodding his head deeply to the animal a step away form him before stepping the rest of the way and petting the animals neck, feeling knots under skin that were probably hurtful. Kris figured that the unicorn wouldn’t probably live for very long anymore. It was a shame really – he was a proud animal even with the lost leg. The unicorn let Kris pet him for a few moments, before snorting and turning and slowly moving back out of sight anymore.
“My very own little piece of paradise,” Kris said with a grin to Dawn before moving to the old stone bench and sitting, “There is a little creek in that corner as well with icy water. Drinkable as well.”
