Kendall sat in the library of the palace and sighed reading his book. His father wanted him to catch up on his studies since he had just been sick resently and couldn't focus on them properly. So he missed a whole week of no studies, not that he was complaining. The books that his father got his professor to get Kendall to read were all rather dull and drove Kendall mad with boredom.

But seeing as Kendall is to be prince of their fair land one day, it is a vital thing that their future king know everything he can to make their town a better place to live. Kendall just wishes that things that happened in history were more exciting. There was nothing that really held his interest. Nothing bad besides a mass of people getting sick and dieing really happened. That and how their land was founded and all that good stuff.

Kendall sighed, there has to be something else for him to read or do right? They have tons of books, there's bound to be one that is interesting enough for the young prince. Kendall got up from his seat and looked for a new book, one worth his time.

He soon came across one that caught his eye. It was about a princess getting kidnapped and having to go through all these challenges to get home once she got free of her captors. Deciding on that one, Kendall picked it up off the shelf and begun to read it quietly to himself.

The book wasn't anything great but it was better then his history book that was as dull as a spoon.

With a sigh Kendall continued to read his book about bandits, theives, and adventure. All the while wishing something as exciting would happen in his history book or in his life.

And sometimes you need to be careful what you wish for.

On the other side of town in the darkest most criminal infested alleyway stood a tall brunet with bright hazel eyes and a plan that would soon be put into action. He looked over to his right hand man and possibly the only person in this world he trusted. Carlos was packing up a small suit case with rope, knives and anything else they would need for there next task.

"You almost ready there Carlos?" The brunet asked causing Carlos to jump at the sudden mention of his being.

"All ready boss." Carlos answered and threw the suit case over his shoulder and began to walk with his boss. The tall brunet gave a hearty laugh and clapped his hand on his friends shoulder.

"Very good! Now we have a lot to do. Kidnapping the prince won't be an easy task but we have to do it quickly and before dawn." The brunet said as they walked over to their carriage and loaded it up.

"Dawn? That doesn't give us much time James." Carlos said worrying that they wouldn't have the time to carry out their dastardly deed.

James sighed and looked at the shorter man. "Carlos if I say we have plenty of time, then we have pleanty of time!" James whisper shouted at Carlos because he didn't need anyone over hearing their conversation. "And whisper for now on, don't need the nosey knowing our bueissness." James hissed.

With a gulp Carlos nodded and got in the passenger side as James got into the drivers side. James flicked the reigns and got the horse going. He knew it was going to be a long way to the palace, considering the damn thing was on the other side of town and on top of one of the tallest hills around. Surrounded by guards armed to the teeth with a sworn duty to protect the royal family.

But James loved a challenge, and he knew that prince Kendall was going to be one of the greatest challenges he will soon come to face.

Next stop, the palace.

Back in the royal libaray, Kendall had fallen asleep reading his book. He woke with a start when he felt a gentle hand nudge him awake. Relief washed over him as he saw it was only Logan, his long time friend. Kendall smiled at Logan who adverted his gaze from the prince and Kendall rolled his green eyes.

Servants weren't allowed to look royalty in the eye.

"Logan we've been through this, you're like family to me. You can look me in the eye." Kendall told his friend for the millionth time and Logan smiled.

"I know, I just don't want your father to catch me not following the castle rules." Logan said as he lifted his dark brown eyes to meet soft green ones.

"I understand, come on let's go to bed I'm beat." Kendall said as he got up and made his way from the libaray to his room with Logan right on his trail.

"Right away your highness." Logan said ad Kendall stopped walking. He turned to Logan and tapped his foot. "Sorry, it's a rule thing."

Kendall rolled his eyes, "it's also an annoying thing." He replied and continued on his way. Kendall hated being called anything that wasn't his name. It just didn't seem right. He changed out of his robes into his night wear and climbed into bed. "Good night Logan."

"Good night your high- I mean, Kendall." Logan corrected himself and Kendall smiled. Logan left to his chambers leaving Kendall all alone.

Little did he know that would be the last time he'd see the young prince.

Authors note: So, how was that?! :)
