I, Back2Freestyle15, personally welcome you to my newest story, Cinda-May. This truly fascinating but humorous story will leave you on the ground, laughing with delight yet in a thoughtful, excited mood for our hero's. Like my Aladdin Story, the whole crew is in it, taking roles that were born for them. However, it is not a play, and this is for real for our characters. No pokemon, unfortunately, because goodness knows that I have a hard enough time trying to spelling real words. (Back2Freestyle grins)
This story will be as long as I can stretch it, without wandering away from the storyline. I hope you all enjoy this, and please submit a review to tell me what you think of it.
"I don't know what you can't understand, dad! I don't want to get married!" Prince Drew grumbled, as he stared out the window down at the courtyard. His father, King Todd sighed.
"But you have to find a wife soon! I will not be around forever Drew, and you must have a queen to rule with you!" Drew turned around to responded, but stopped himself. He coolly walked out of the room, hands in his pockets and gave a short wave.
"I'm going down town. Don't bother to wait up." King Todd watched him walked away, almost glaring at him. He was so stubborn, just like his mother...
-OoO-
Drew walked to his room quickly and changed into normal folk clothes. As he did, he angrily thought over the discussion he had just had with his dad. A ball?! Drew didn't want a stupid ball, to find a girl to marry!! Besides, he was like fifteen! Anyways, he didn't need a girl to help rule the Kingdom. He could do it just fine by himself, thank you very much.
"I was you wouldn't leave such a mess, Prince Drew." A voice startled him as he quickly turned around. A girl, with pink hair up in two circles, and angry blue eyes stared back at him. Drew rolled his eyes and turned back around, putting on his cape as he studied himself in the mirror.
"Ya, whatever, Joy. I'm going downtown, to cool off." Joy sighed, as she picked up his shirt and folded it.
"You and the King get in another fight?" Drew glared out the window.
"He's throwing a ball for me, tonight and wants me to find a girl to marry, tonight." Joy rolled her eyes.
"You know he's only trying to help you." Drew let out a short laugh as he made his way to the door.
"Thanks, but no thanks. I'm independent. I don't need a queen."
-OoO-
"May! You better be back before we get hungry!" A loud shrill voice said. May groaned, as she switched the heavy load from her right arm to her left.
"Yeah! A we want a turkey tonight!"
"With lots of potatoes!" May covered her ears and ran away from those ugly, cranky devils that she worked for. When she was eight, her mom and dad both passed away, in a 'freak accident' that no one bothered to explain to her, and left her with nothing but her six year old brother. Since then, May has been working as a only servant to the Raven family: Marcy, Diana, and their mother, Beatrice. All three of them were spoiled, demanding and terrible mean. May slept at their houses, in the attic, while the money she earned went to Max, who went to a boarding school nearby. But the two never get to see each other: May rarely went outside of the demons house, and Mas was not allowed to see her, at all. So when the two did meet, it was in secret and only for a minute.
Today was one of those days, and Max and her were meeting in their dark alley. While thinking about this, May walked through the market street, carrying her empty basket that she needed to fill. She sighed as she stopped by a fruit stand, choosing only the best and exchanging some cooper coins with the producer. She bought some of Lugi Bread (authors gag) and was looking at some meat when she heard a loud voice yelling about a unexpected event tonight. All around her, girls squealed and giggled with delight. The Prince was looking for a Queen and all the girls in town were invited to it. May rolled her eyes, what a stuck up little-
"Hey kid! Move!" May turned quickly and her eyes widened at the sight that greeted her. There was a cart, loaded with wooden boxes. Apparently, a little boy fell against the cart, and the crates became unbalanced and fell toward a strange boy May had never seen. He looked up, frozen in the spot and slowly watched the crates head for him. People around him screamed and watched horrified also unable to react. May didn't lose a second and dropped her basket and ran.
-OoO-
A sound of splitting word echoed through the market street and all was silent for a second as everyone turned to look at them. Then, a man cursed under his breath, and people began to return to their daily routines. Drew shakily sat up and looked around him. He saw a girl, about the same age as him, being helped up by a older looking lady. The girl looked nervous and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
"What-?"
"Boy? Are you alright?" The same lady who helped up the girl walked over to him. Drew quickly got up, and brushed himself off.
"Yeah, yeah. I'm fine. What, happened, exactly?" A old man nearby, who was cleaning up the mess, chuckled.
"You, young man, were a gonner. That is, until she showed up."
Flashback-
Drew eyes widen as the heavy crates came, in slow motion, careering toward him. Just when he had closed his eyes and thought to be a goner, a strong force pushed him back, knocking the breath out of him. He fell to the ground hard, and rolled over a couple feet. His eyes snapped open as he heard someone scream and the loud sound of splitting word.
End of Flashback
"Yep, that girl over there pushed you out of the way, just in time I'll say." A man chuckled, as the straw sticking out of his mouth moved up and down. Drew turned to him, a curious look on his face.
"Who was that girl? I've never seen her around." The lady shook her head as she sighed.
"That poor dear. Her name is May, honey, and is a orphan working for those evil Raven family. And-"
"May! May wait up!" A small boy ran into view and stopped for a breath next to Drew.
"Hey! Did you see a girl, about a head taller than me with brown hair, go by here?" Drew looked down at him, cocking a eyebrow.
"And who might you be?" The boy panted for another minute before responding
"Max, I'm May's little brother. Who are you? I've never seen you around." Drew didn't respond for a minute, as he looked around at the crowd. Max thought he wasn't going to respond, but Drew finally cleared his throat.
"I'm Drew."
Max's, along with the lady and the old man gasped.
"Prince Drew!?" Drew slapped his hands in Max's mouth.
"Shh! Do you want them to hear me?" Drew hissed, his eyes darting around them.
"Who?" The lady asked in a soft voice.
"Girls, thats who." Drew glared. Then bending down on his knees, he looked at Max.
"Hey, do you think you can take me to your sister? I need to ask her something." Max grinned and winked at Drew.
"Sure, anything for the Prince!" Drew shushed him as the lady laughed.
"Make sure you ask her to the dance, Drew!" She yelled to them, as the two boys disappeared into the crowd.
-OoO-
May's heart rate picked up, as she ran back to her house. She panted as she dodged the passer byers. She couldn't let them see her and she prayed that they didn't see her with that boy. When she said them, she was referring to Beatrice's spies. They were everywhere, and when ever May did one thing wrong, like stop at a cart that she thought was interesting, or talk to a boy for pleasure, they would tell Beatrice, and May would be punished severely. She gulped, thinking of her past punishes. She didn't know why she pushed that kid, but she couldn't just watch and do nothing. It was, like, instinct. She didn't even know what she was doing until she hit the ground. And when she did, she knew she was in trouble. Which is why she was running, for the house, and hopefully get there before her spies did.
"Hey! Wait!"
May, distracted with the voice, lost her footing and tripped and basket went flying. Expecting to fall flat on her face, she was surprised to be caught as arms held her waist. She slowly opened her eyes and gasped. "Ash!"
So... what do you think? The ending was a little cruel, I'll say, but trust me! Things will work out. I have no idea how Brock is going to fit into the story, or even Ash for that matter! But hopefully, I'll have it figured out by the next chapter.
Review please!!
