Chapter 23: Her Scarf

I put the rings on in room 2B, with the door locked and the lamp low, an hour before dawn.

Gideon had brought them down the hundred stairs in his pocket.

Chris and Matt sat on my bed in their shirtsleeves.

They looked like two boys waiting outside the principal's office.

The two halves of my blue scarf lay on the quilt where the dragon had snapped them.

I picked up both pieces and tore each in half.

Four lengths of blue silk hung from my hand.

"Here are the terms," I said.

"You can leave me, any of you, any day, and I will let you go."

"I can leave you, any day, and you will let me."

"Nobody speaks for me, and nobody decides for me."

"Nobody says mine without saying it to my face and hearing me answer."

"Yes," said Matt at once.

"Yes," said Chris, very low.

"Yes," said the dragon.

I took Gideon's wrist and tied a strip of silk around it.
