Hello! Welcome to an original story I'm working on. It's sorta based of a bunch of video games, anime, and books, so I've put this under crossovers. I have a basic plot in mind, but feel free to send me an oc or something that could happen in the story!
disclaimer: I own nothing... Wait, never mind, I own everything.
A young man was sat in a watch tower on the kingdom walls. Same old, same old.
Most people would think being a knight would be exciting, and full of adventure. Slaying dragons, saving princesses... Unfortunately, that rarely needs being done, and even if there was a problem like that, it was left for the highest ranking knights. Most dangerous thing someone like him could do is stop a bar fight or something.
As a child he knew how safe everything was, nothing needed protecting...so why become a knight? Here's the thing, he had no choice.
His name is Lucius. Tough looking guy, slightly toned, messy ginger hair and sky blue eyes. He could sometimes see a girl looking in his direction... One of the only benefits of being a knight.
Anyway, he is part of a family of blacksmiths, but his parents forced the whole knight thing on him so he could bring in some extra money. He, like any good child, obeyed.
"Hey Lucifer, your shifts over!" Called a voice, which belonged to his captain, Delspire
"Finally" he muttered, getting up with a stretch. Lucius sighed and looked to the older man
"Hey... So I've been thinking lately... I th-" he started, only to be cut off by his boss
"You think you wanna quit your job?" Delspire finished, causing the young man's mouth to open in shock
"H-how did you-" he stuttered, which got a smile off his captain. Delspire ruffled the knight's hair.
"Too obvious. Anyone could have guessed. You're a fine knight, but I'm fine with letting you go... It's not like the kingdom needs many of us anymore" he said, a sad tone present in his voice.
"You just need to speak with the queen about this... Good luck" he added.
Lucius gulped at the thought of speaking to the queen about this. As beautiful as she was, with her light brown hair and icy blue eyes, she had an extremely short temper. He didn't want to think of what would happen if he asked to leave.
"Um, I-I'll go do t-that now. B-best get it over and done with, a-am I r-r-right?" He said, quickly walking away. The old man chuckled when he saw the beads of sweat running down his neck.
A short time later, he found himself staring at the throne room doors, about to enter... Aaaany moment now... Or not. He stood there, perfectly frozen. Thank goodness there were no guards anywhere nears the door, they would have thought he was a freak!
After a good five minutes passed, he heard some voices on the other side of the door.
"You see where I am getting at your majesty? With this alliance, both your kingdom and I benefit!" Said the voice of a male. From what he remembered, that sounded like the Royal advisor, Daverius.
He pressed his ear against the door to hear more. Sure, eavesdropping is bad but this sounded interesting.
"Yes... I see... We will... Form the alliance" said the voice of a female, which most definitely belonged to the queen. For some reason, she sounded dazed.
"You're such an obedient pet. I'll organise a messenger to let the ruler of the neighbouring kingdom know" Daverius mused, and a feint 'm-hm' was heard.
Lucius heard footsteps heading towards the door. His eyes widened 'o dear, I'm in trouble" he thought, when suddenly the doors opened and he was face to face with the Royal advisor, who stared at him with his reddish brown eyes. His tall and slender figure looked down at him, and he brushed his slightly curled Raven black hair away from his eyes
"I-I can explain!" He said desperately.
"I don't think any explanation is needed, you're tried to kill the queen!" He said in a shocked tone, which didn't match with his smile. The knight suddenly saw that he had a dagger in hand.
"Wha..." He mumbled, as he stared at the weapon, before he heard something he didn't want to hear.
"How DARE you! GUARDS, BRING HIM TO THE DUNGEON!" Screamed the queen, and before he knew it, guards started flowing into the throne room. He did the first thing his mind yelled at him.
RUN!
