[Charlie Brennan]

Charlie couldn't help but chuckle and shrugging "You were amusing... the clothes you were wearing weren't something I'm used to seeing" Charlie teased with a smirk before looking to the water fall.

"And of course your handling of my sword... I've never seen something so funny in my life" Charlie added before tilting his head in thought.

"And you resisted my charms... which I'm not sure how you did that as most girls fall at my feet the moment I arrive even more so when I'm riding my horse" Charlie declared seriously before looking to Jessie and laughing out loud.

"You were interesting... very outspoken, you will fit in here" Charlie admitted before he smiled at the thought of growing up with Katie.

"I believe Katie is happy... if she wasn't she would have told us many times" Charlie admitted rolling his eyes.

"She spoke of you once... when she was very young, there was a storm and she said you used to protect her by pulling the covers over you head and making funny faces at her" Charlie told her with a small smile.

[[that took forever]]

[Jessie Collins]

[[ it will do if your watching tv... you always do when your on the computer]]

Jessie rolled her eyes as Charlie listed what he thought of her on meeting her... she gapped at him when he said she resisted his charms. Thankfully the blush was stopped when he started to laugh.

Glaring instead of hitting him she had to laugh as she pictured him on his horse.... he truly was something out of the fairy tales if he thought that was what it took to sweep a girl off her feet.

"It might be the fact that you insulted my clothes and kept calling me Lady Jessie that I could resist your oh so famous charms" Jessie teased before she gave a shrug.

"Plus your not my type... fairy tale guys don't exist in my world so I wouldn't know what one would look like if I ever met one or what to do with one either" Jessie admitted before looking to the water fall.

Jessie laughed at the memory of Katie crying from her crib when there was a storm.... she was surprised that she even remebered it.
"She was only little then... she hated storms, always did but it seem to matter so much when we were together" Jessie admitted with a sigh.

[Charlie Brennan]

Charlie felt the need to puff his chest out when Jessie mocked his charms. But he still laughed along with her, at least she was relaxing more now... he would even admit it was fun being around her.

"Then help a fairy tale gentleman out.... what are you looking for" Charlie asked before his smile faded a little as he thought that perhaps she would tell him of someone she already knew.

"I mean you must have many suitors" Charlie added flickering his eyes to Jessie for a moment then looked away.

"She can fire off a dozen arrows but the first sign of a storm and she trembles" Charlie admitted laughing the last time he teased her.... he didn't see the stone she threw at him before ducking into the stone hall.

[[ I know your watching TV too... you told me to turn it over]]

[Jessie Collins]

Jessie frowned and looked to Charlie before smirking... he actually wanted to know what she looked for in a guy. Blushing she laughed and shrugged, not knowing how to answer.

The truth was every girl she knew would drool over him.... she had to admit he was cute but he was sweet and kind too.

"Fine... I guess girls are looking for a fairy tale gentleman... you kind and very brave" Jessie admitted before blushing a little.

"No there's no suitors... I go to an all girls boarding school not many chances at finding a prince charming" Jessie admitted before laughing at her sister's antics.

"let me guess being like an older brother you teased her?" Jessie asked raising her eyebrow and giggling.

[Charlie Brennan]

Charlie smirked and grinned brightly at Jessie before laughing and lowering his head.

"You do know I don't believe you... about the suitors, it's impossible" Charlie declared firmly.
"And thank you.. most just call me headstrong" Charlie admitted with a laugh.

"I would never tease Katie... at least not after she threw a stone at my head" Charlie admited with a wince before laughing.

[Jessie Collins]

Jessie blushed again before standing up and began to pratice with the bow. Glancing at Charlie she smirked and raised an eyebrow.

"I know it must be a strange idea to you... but I really have no suitors, boys don't tend to like me... I'm too strange which really makes them right after all considering that I've met a talking wolf and fox." Jessie admitted with a small sigh.

Smirking she gave Charlie a look before drawing the string back on the bow feeling her self become more and more comfortable with it.

"Head strong and stubborn are the same things too" Jessie teased before letting the string go.

"Of course you would never tease Katie... but the stone thing was your own fault. If she's really good a archy her pulling arm will be strong and us Collins girls can throw a punch" Jessie warned him.

[Charlie Brennan]

Charlie couldn't help but laugh and watch as Jessie stood and started to pratice with the bow, Her bow by the looks of things.

"You jest with me... how can anyone think you strange... your determined" Charlie teased before he rose to his feet and stood beside Jessie watching her pull the string back.

"Well that makes us the same then... how will we cope?" Charlie teased. He stepped back when the string was let go before clearing his throat and lowered Jessie's elbow so it was positioned below where she pulled the string back.

"That should help... it will stop you from hurting yourself" Charlie admitted before stepping back and rubbing his neck again.

"I know how hard Katie can hit... I just hope never to annoy you enough for you to hit me?" Charlie admitted with a smile.

[Jessie Collins]

Jessie flickered her eyes to Charlie when he moved her elbow but quickly looked away and smiled slightly before pulling the string back and releasing it again feeling more comfortable in the new position.

"You have no idea about how the guys think now a days... you went missing eleven years ago, you taught to be open minded" Jessie reminded him before lowering the bow and turned to look at him.

"We finally have something in common... and I just thought you were annoying" Jessie teased with a laugh feeling happier since her arrival.
Prehaps she was too rash on her descion to hurry back... true she wasn't sure she could be much help in a fight but at least she could see those who were fighting had kind hearts.

"I thought you were better with swords" Jessie questioned as she lent on the bow.

[Charlie Brennan]

Charlie folded his arms and smiled as he watched Jessie before snorting.
"Guys rarely differ from one place to another" Charlie admitted before raising an eyebrow.

"You sound disappointed... I would gladly annoy you if you want, I'm sure I could find something" Charlie declared with mock seriousness before puffing his chest out.

"I good with most weapons.... I favour the sword... my sword" Charlie declared lowering his arms to prop his hand on the hilt of his sword.

[Jessie Collins]

Jessie laughed and gave him a 'oh really' look "I doubt most guys back in my world are all for the knight in shining armour and damsel in distress sort of things" Jessie admitted before narrowing her eyes at him.

"I thought you didn't want to find out how hard I hit" Jessie reminded him before sighing.

"I sure you are and of course guys favour a sword" Jessie joked before looking around and smirking at Charlie with a glint to her eyes.

"What excatly do you guys do for fun around here" Jessie questioned innocently.

[Charlie Brennan]

Charlie smirked and raised his eyebrows before shrugging "Not to fond of damsels myself but any one in need of help" Charlie admitted before clearing his throat. He really didn't want to find out how hard she could hit, if it was anything like her sister.

"This is fun... unless you mean... well there is one place that is considered fun. The beach but I'm sure it would hold no interest for you" Charlie admitted only a little worried over what she was playing on doing.

[Jessie Collins]

Jessie nodded before she slung the bow over her shoulder and straightened giving Charlie a look.
"A real knight in shining armour you are... I bet you've met a lot of girls in need of help" Jessie stated before she held back the part about with him looking like he did it wouldn't surprise her if they threw themselves at him.

"And you have a limited sense on fun... and the beach it is... unless of course you have more important things to do" Jessie stated before smirking.

"Like playing with your sword" Jessie teased with an innocent smile.

[Charlie Brennan]

Charlie furrowed his brow and refused to put his hand on his swords hilt again before giving Jessie a look.
"I can have fun... and I don't play with my sword, it's a very dangerous thing" Charlie reasoned before he moitioned to the entrance and smiled brightly at Jessie.

"If you want to go then I will take you... you must explain this thing called fun that you seem to know so much about" Charlie stated with a glint to his own eyes.

[Jessie Collins]

Jessie bit back a laugh and held her hands up "Of course you don't play with your sword... I bet you just like to twirl it" Jessie admitted with a grin before propping her hands on her hips and smirking.

She had to admit it the guy acutally knew how to be funny, there was hope for him yet.

"You shouldn't mock what you don't understand" Jessie stated with a smug smile playing across her lips.

[Charlie Brennan]

Charlie flashed his eyes at Jessie, really did she believe all he did was twirl his sword.

Moving silently over to the water a plan formed in his head, with a smirk he bent down and sighed.
"I fear perhaps you have mistaken me Jessie... you know nothing of my fighting skills and my will to fight for what is right" Charlie stated not showing the smile engulfing his face.

"I would never mock someting I know nothing about.... but of course I do know something about fun" Charlie admitted before cupping a handful of water and spinning quickly he turned and threw it at Jessie hoping his aim was prefect. Laughing he couldn't help but fall backwards on his behind.
