Reinath grumbled lazily but relayed the message. The Weyrleaders wish to talk to you. Reinath explained, her many faceted eyelids remaining closed.
"Shards." Many more oaths were cursed under her breath. I told that wherry-head to stay hidden. We have been getting caught way to often. Maybe Decir was right. She thought, allowing Reinath to listen in, but the gold didn't comment. The gold-rider stood up from the shore, glad that she had dried all ready.
Miya then headed towards the lower caverns. She called Kalie to her so that it would look like the two had been together for a while. Kalie perched on the shoulder that Tonu wasn't on. Then the Jr. Weyrwoman made her way to where the four waited.
"You called for me?" She questioned innocently, her face void of emotion and unreadable.

Sh'iron looked at Miya when she entered. "Yes, I did call for you," He said, emotionless.
"While we were here, discussing Nike, and K'dan's punishments, we found your firelizard hovering by the ceilling, wathing us. Now, a firelizard rarely goes to spy on people without an order from their bonded. And, we have had other reports of brown and green firelizards spying in on people. You have, brown and green firelizards, and the green disappeared when we spoke of your name. So you have been ordering your firelizards to spy on people. May I ask why?" The Weyrleader said, quickly. Making no room for Miya to interrupt.

Miya listened, but she just looked bored. "I do know that my firelizards spy, but I do not order them to do so. Sometimes, they do dissappear and come back chittering excitedly and giving me images, but I do not tell them to spy. I mearly keep an eye on some things every now and then. Like if someone got hurt." Miya spoke the same way that the Weyrleader did, giving no chance for anyone intterupt. She turned to Tonu. Recently, he seemed to be spying with out her orders. Had he been getting caught?

K'dan looked at Miya and gave a snort to that reply. That was a bold face lie and to lie to the Weyrleader to his face, definently bold. Since when did Miya care if someone got hurt anyway though. He held Nike close to him and whispered in her ear, "She is obviously lying...since when does Miya care if someone gets hurt". The last part more of a joking tone as he whispered.

Sh'iron nodded. "Alright. Then answer this. Why do you firelizards follow certein people around? And these people have told me it was either during an important moment, or right after they spoke with you, Miya?" He said, and licked his lips. There were too many cases with Miya's firelizards. He was getting tired of them, and did know that Miya had sent them out. He just had to get her to admit it.

Miya shrugged. "I don't know. Maybe they have a knack for it. Why would I be able to know when something important is about to happen? Fire-lizards can sense things that we can't. Maybe they can since excitement or when a feeling gets extreme." Miya explained. Kalie chirped happily, as if she knew they were talking about her and her clutch-brother.
Miyamine, are you coming back or not? The gold asked impatiently.
"Are we finished? Reinath is calling me." Miya explained.

Christae's face paled when she heard the news. "Your dragons. You fools. Do you realize what your actions could do to maturing dragonets? Why do you think that we warn you not to engage in sexual activity?" Her face was horrified, but her voice was steely.
Her brown eyes were usually warm but now they were icy as she glared at the pair. "How could you dileberatly disobey one of the most important rules set out for Weyrlings?" She turned to Sh'iron. "Pregnant women can do a lot more than you think love." She said, reminding him of all the work she had managed to do while pregnant with Chiron.
"I do not want to let them have the option of fostering. Nike and K'dan will have to take responsibility for their actions. They will have to take care of their dragons, their duties as Weyrlings and the child. Nike will not be able to shirk her Master Healer duties. Also, I wish to ban them from going anywhere for pleasure. Any free time they have will be spent doing chores. Nike can mend clothes and do domestic tasks that do not require heavy lifting and K'dan can go with the miners to get firestone and he can also do any similar tasks. I hereby suspend them from all pleasure outings and assign chores daily." She turned to him. "If you agree of course."
She looked up. Birinj appeared, chirping at her and she brushed him gently aside. "Not now little one." She listened to Sh'iron's accusations and watched her Jr. Weyrwoman's face. She was guilty and she was not telling the truth. "Miya." Her voice was even colder than it was when she had spoken to Nike and K'dan. "I cannot believe you would stoop to such level. Such actions are vile and disgusting, as well as against the rules. How dare you spy on your fellow riders! What is worse, is that you spied on Sh'iron and me. If you have no respect for your fellow riders you should at least have respect for me."
She listened with growing indignation as the girl actully asked if the Weyrleaders were finished simply because her dragon was calling for her. "Oh no Miya, we are not finished." Her voice was coldly furious. "We will not stand for this misconduct from any of you. I seem to remember the compliments awarded our weyr from the temporary transfer riders. You three, along with others seem to be ruining that reputation. I will not have any of this, fistfights, Weyrling riders getting pregnant, Weyrling Jr. Weyrwomen spying, daggers being flashed about, what on Pern has gotten into you? This has to stop now."
She turned to her mate. "Seeing as she is my wingrider, I believe that I should be able to see fit to punish her. However, if you have any suggestions, I would love to hear them." Her voice softened as she spoke to Sh'iron but her icy gaze remained, trained on the three miscreants. "I simply cannot believe that our riders are acting in such a manner."

Miya had to try hard not to smile or show ammusment. Luckily, she succeeded. The fact that the Weyrwoman was furious, that she was getting yelled at, and that she was getting punished was not amusing, but the Weyrwoman was much more angry than Shiron, whose voice sounded like they were having a casual conversation.
"I did not have my flitts spy," Miya insisted, her tone and face the same void of emotion as usual, "and I will not say I did when I didn't. I will try to keep my flitts out of other peoples way, as they seem to be getting in trouble, but I had nothing to do to it. I doubt even that will change your mind since I can see you are furious and your mind is set, but my words have not and will not change." She said simply, as if it weren't a big matter.

Sh'iron raised an eyebrow at Miya. "If we get any more reports of your firelizards spying on people, I promise you, you won't have any free time," He said, then turned to Christae. "I agree fully. But, when the preperation for Thread starts, their punishment will stop since they won't have any time what so ever to do all of those things. Thread, a dragon, and the normal chores take up all of a rider's time," The Weyrleader nodded.
"Miya, if your firelizards are not with you, with Ruanth, or in the vision of another person, we will assume that your firelizards are spying on people. If you don't keep your firelizards in order, you will have more punishments. And it won't just be doing chores. No, we are going to make you the things that a normal rider of no rank would have to do," Sh'iron looked over the three. Such a sad state that this Weyr has become. He had worked so hard, and now, it is falling apart right in front of his eyes.

Christae nodded. "Very well then, those punishments will be implemented. Although even with Thread training, they must care for the child. They may find a temporary caretaker when they must train, but they raise the child."
"Miya, I do not believe you when you say that you are not spying. We have had too many reports of YOUR flitts around at conspicuous moments. Remember, Kaith is Sr. Queen. If I wish to know anything at all in my weyr, all I have to do is ask her. Even your precious Reinath must obey a Sr. Queen. If I find that you have been spying at all and you are lying to me, your punishment will be severe. It is shameful for a Jr. WW, even a W'ling one to be takng part in such abominable behavior." Her voice was as cold as her gaze now that she was not talking to her mate.
((sorry for the short and scattered reply im supposed to be getting ready to go to visit my great grandmother in the hospital and the ride is over an hour to get there and i dont know if i will have internet connection))

Miya face didn't falter, niether did her voice. "Yes Weyrwoman." She said simply. With that she turned, both Tonu and Kalie resting on her shoulder, and walked out. One a bit away from the room, she sighed. ~That was close. Reinath, did you tell Kaith anything?~ She asked suspiciously.
I will not lie, as you have done, but Kaith did not ask anything of me. So technically, keeping my mouth shut isn't lying. If she asks, I will find ways not to tell her without lying. Reinath replied truthfully.
Miya walked back to the queen with a smile. She scratched her eyeridges and sat down next to her once again, her back leaning against the large golden hide.

Nike nodded. "I will do whatever I can to earn your respect back, Weyrwoman, and Weyrleader," She said, her face trying to be as emotionless as possible. "And if worst comes to worst, I can always take a short dragonride," The Healer said, and then turned around to leave. She heard her punishment, and would learn more later. But for now, she would soon have to take care of Ruanth and her firelizards.
Once she and K'dan were back in her office, she let go of his hand and started getting the things that would be needed when she would be on duty. "Well, it wasn't that bad," She said, not looking at the blue rider.

K'dan nodded respectfully and left with her. He watched her go to work in her office and speak to him without looking. "I suppose it could have been worse", he replied to her. He gave a sigh as he watched her then shook his head. What was he doing? He couldn't just stand there, he had to make sure she was alright. He walked up to her and placed a hand on her shoulder and spoke, "Are you alright?". His eyes hinted worry in them as to the fact that he was and he certainly hoped Nike wasn't upset with him or anything.

Nike turned around to look at K'dan. "Everything is fine. It's just that I can get rid of this child, so then it won't cause us that much harm. And plus, if we wanted another child, we could just wait until we were full riders," She said, and rubbed her eyes.
The Healer turned back around, and started working again. Zim landed on the back of her chair, Crystal was with Ruanth.
I do not want you to loose this child. Ruanth said.
Yes, but it has caused so muck harm. And I think it has damaged you. Nike said.
You work with dragons. You know almost everything about them. You would know if it has harmed me or not.
You are right, I guess. But I shouldn't have let K'dan do it. I love him, but I shouldn't have let him.
You wouldn't be able to. You know that. You wanted someone to love you like K'dan does.
You are right. I really don't need a mate when I have you. You are afterall, the one that I love the most. I would ide for you.
But y ou wouldn't die for K'dan?
If I died for K'dan, than you would come with me, along with Zim and Crystal. And I don't want that.
I knew that I chose right.
I was the only one that you could chosse.

K'dan shook his head. "No. We will keep this baby. The baby was born out of our love for each other", he said to her as he held her. "Please don't Nike. We have a family now. That is something to be joyful about. We knew there would be consequences but we love each other", he said as a tear started to roll down his cheek. He held Nike to his shoulder so she couldn't see. He didn't want her to get rid of the baby and she seemed to be so happy at first about it.

Nevvanikea sighed. "I know. I don't want to get rid of it, but it is a choice that we may have to take," She said, and buried her face in her hands. "Please K'dan, just promise me this, when I have the child, I don't want anyone in the room besides you, our firelizards, and the healers that would be needed. I do not want anyone else in the room. Even if the Weyrleaders want to come in. I have the choice, and I know what and what not I want to do," She said and leaned against the blue rider.
"I love you K'dan, and I am glad that you are the father of my first child," The Healer spoke softly.

"Ok", he responded to her softly. He then dried his tear and held her tightly and said, "I promise you no one else will be in there ok? I will drive them off with all my power if need be love. Anything for you". He smiled and said to her, "Nike I love you too. I never thought I could love a woman so deeply as I love you. I couldn't begin to describe how much I love you because it couldn't be fit into words". He looked at her and kissed her. He pulled back and gave a smile. It was hard to believe his closest friend became the woman he loved so much but it was the truth and K'dan could love no other woman but Nike.

Nike smiled. "I'm glad, K'dan," She said. "I am very glad that you love me so much," The Healer added, and kissed him back. Once he pulled away she did too. "I should be getting ready to go on the job. I know hat there are a few things that will be done," The Healer said. "And I think we should start working on our punishment. I could work on the clothes whenever I don't have a case, and you can start working the next time the workers in the mine start out," She said. or somereason, all this though of working made her feel poor. She didn't know why. Mabey it was becuase so many people had to work just to live. And now she had to do the same.

K'dan happily excepted her kiss and gave her a passionate one in return. He nodded in agreement to her words. He would have to work hard now but he didn't mind and he didn't regret what they did. He looked at her before he left and told her this, "Nike. I don't regret what we did that night...and I hope you don't either. He looked a bit downcast at the last part, he truely hoped she didn't regret it. He left her office without waiting for a response and soon he was gone. He had to let her know he didn't regret it, not in the slightest did he.
