The Guard And The Princess
The man walked through the halls swiftly and calmly, two guards guarding the hall bowed slightly as he passed. He made sure his swords, all three of them were strapped on properly on his belt then knocked on a door in front of him three times.
A woman opened the door still in her sleepwear, the man bowed slightly and spoke,
"Miss Robin, your mother calls for your presence"
Robin smiled and signaled for him to come in, he sighed then walked in and Robin closed the door,
Robin: "Thanks Zoro, I wanted to know what I should wear for today,"
Zoro watched as Robin opened the cupboard and picked some clothes,
"Miss Robi- I mean, Robin I can ask for Nami to help you"
Robin shook her head and picked up two outfits and Zoro sighed,
"Well?"
"The one on your left"
"Thanks, commander Zoro"
Zoro, the commander and lead officer for the Oharan empire is applied to protect Robin whenever he has free time. And to be honest, he always has free time.
Robins the princess of the empire, daughter of Queen Olvia. Her father died years ago and Zoro is someone who can actually make her laugh these days.
Zoro waited with his back turned whilst Robin got changed, Robin finished and with no warning hugged Zoro from behind.
Zoro's face showed the color of a tomato and looked at his shoulder to see a smirking princess. Zoro sighed, they've been friends since childhood and Zoro went through a hell of a lot just to get the job of protecting Robin. But sometimes there were negatives,
"Robin, your mother is waiting for you,"
"Ok, will you be eating with us?"
"No but I will be by your side,"
Robin opened the door and walked out with Zoro following behind,
"Sir!"
Zoro turned around to see a a boy with pink hair walk towards them,
"What is it Coby?"
"Preparations for the trip is complete, waiting on your orders"
"Good, I'll be there in a moment,"
Robin smiled at Coby and he bowed slightly at the sight of her,
"Sorry miss Robin, I won't be there for breakfast,"
"It's ok, I understand,"
Zoro bowed slightly and walked off with Coby to the barracks, Robin walked into the dining room and greeted her mother then sat down.
Robin sighed, it's boring without Zoro, and without Zoro the days go by longer.
Robin sighed again, It's going to be a very long day.
