Every BelFran author needs to write at least one 'The Prince and the Frog' fanfic, right?

I'm just rolling through all my ideas here~, and I am glad to have recieved many reviews for A Royal Spring. Now you may be wondering, 'Why isn't she working on it right now?'
It's because I'm mean, and like to tease my readers. Bad habit, I sorry.
This is going to be my next chapter fanfiction, since I've finished Viper or Mammon. The 'A Royal-' series will be continuing for a looooooong time.
Also, has anyone noticed the information I put at the top of my fanfictions? If anyone has any oneshot ideas or good multi-chap ideas that they would like for me to write about, I'm open to any of them, so long as that information is provided. Well... at least the category, plot and characters. XD

If you've read my other fanfictions, see if you can pick out what I'm doing more in this one.

8:26 AM

Angered by his brother's most recent attempts to prove himself the better prince, Belphegor walked decisively out of the palace. He headed into the forest, taking the crown off his head and dropping it in the damp, spring-green grass so that it wouldn't get damaged should he get into any trouble. Trouble, after all, was surfacing more often lately.

"That stupid shadow of mine," he growled, kicking a rock so that it shot into the air, shooting a couple leaves off of their branch before it landed back onto the ground. Bel strided further into the unknown territory, a frown ruining his mischievous appearance.

Tromp-tromp tromp-tromp

The sound of his boots was the only thing that echoed through the forest, and it matched the thudding of his hearbeat, which rang out from his embarassment and anger.

Crit...crit...crit...crit...

Other sounds began to start up, first the sound of a cricket, then the twit-twee-twit-twee of birds in the trees.

Tap...tap-tap...tap...tap-tap...

A woodpecker aligned itself in the rhythm.

Suddenly-

Psshhh...

Bel stopped. 'A creek?'

He walked further, hands finding themselves slipping shyly into his pockets. He came across a small brook that branched off into a still, deep blue pond. Bel found a couple rocks that were placed around the pond, a few just big enough for him to sit on. He stepped onto one, then the next, then onto the one closest to the pond. He crouched down, using only his fingertips to balance himself in the position with his heels off the ground and his knees tucked to his chest, and looked carefully into the pond. Seeing that there were many more plants in there than he'd originally guessed, he eased himself down onto his side, though he was still sitting up. (A/N: Girl-sitting-in-a-skirt pose if you still don't get it.)

The young prince carefully leaned down closer to the water and dipped his cupped hand into it, bringing up a slightly murky handful of water when he returned it. His eyes widened with suprise as he noticed the small, wriggling, black creature that he'd also scooped up, and he carefully set it back into the water. He began to lie down on his stomach, curled his legs a bit towards his back, and folded his arms, resting his head on top of them.

He gazed into the pond and was suprised to find that there were many of the swimming, black animals in the pond. He wondered what they were- for he hadn't seen anything like them before. He was able to recognize the one he had accidentally picked up, it was much smaller than the rest.

Suddenly, he heard a splash and looked up, then was suprised to see a sleek, green frog swimming over to the shallow water in which the young, black creatures were. Of course, Bel knew what a frog was, but tadpoles were new to him. For one silly moment, the prince worried that the frog would eat the smaller animals, but, of course, a mother woudn't eat her offspring. ... Most of the time.

Bel breathed out with relief when the frog just crawled up onto a lily pad beside the area where the black creatures where. He reached a finger down and touched the surface of the water, causing small ripple to break the surface of the water and just barely buffet the lily pad that the mother frog sat on. The tadpoles, curious, began to swim up towards his outstretched finger, but recoiled at the slightest move. Even so, that small one... it didn't back away, it just stayed there, content to be the bravest one.

Fran's POV

What a strange thing! Whatever it was that had picked him up earlier, it hadn't left once his mother had come. Then again, no other being was quite as big at it. And it had the nerve to touch the waters. His brothers were very scared of it, but he was curious of the other. What was it? Why was it so intrusive? What had compelled it to come here?

Bel's POV

The smallest one began to nudge his finger as if saying, 'Hey, move, you don't belong here.' Bel agreed- he didn't belong out here. However, he had to stay away from Rasiel- at least for today. What idiot gave Jill a knife anyway?

Bel looked at the green frog on the lily pad, because it had suddenly began 'kero'-ing wildly. Bel retracted his finger from the pond, thinking that somehow he'd pissed it off. It leapt into the pond, just barely splashing the young prince, before it swam over to the tadpole and seemed to scold it. Bel understood the relationship at last- though he had no idea why the offspring of the frog looked so different. "Froggy," he said with a grin as he watched the small tadpole, "You're name is Froggy."

-End Chapter One

Well? Like? Dislike? Should I continue? Gonna leave a review for me?

I accept anonymous reviews, once again.
And I am really not kidding. Reviews ARE the greatest inspiration an author may have. Even if I'm on spring break, doesn't neccessarily mean I'll be on the couch every day for the readers, unless I get enough reviews to motivate me. Otherwise, I'll be almost as slow as I am normally.

So, on that note, PLEASE REVIEW! IT MAKES MY WORLD GO AROUND~!
