The Princess, The Rebel, and Upside Down Tale
Maka Albarn is never happy with her life. Despite the truth of being a princess, she isn't happy about it. First reason, she is the youngest one. Her annoying older brother, with his God obsession, Black*Star, which is only 1 year older than her, is the legal apprentice of the kingdom. Second reason, in her kingdom, there is an old tradition of girls in the royal family cannot appear in public before her marriage in the age of 16. This makes her life more miserable. She is supposed to be in the palace for all her life.
Third, she is going to get married next year. She is 15. Her father already decides to match-make her with the prince of Death Kingdom, Death The Kidd. Spirit Albarn (Maka's father) already made a deal with the king of Death Kingdom, Shinigami. Fourth, her father is a total jerk. She often hears him flirting with other girls, not her mom, Kami Albarn from her room. Spirit also seems to be drunk every night, with a girl. Maka heard from her favorite maid, Marie Mjolnir, that her father often visits Blair, an employee at nearby club.
Fifth, she cannot see her mom again, Kami Albarn. She divorced him a month earlier. She caught Spirit right-handed that he was cheating with other girls. Kami had noticed it since a long while, but she kept it close and harden herself. Finally, she couldn't take it anymore. She divorced Spirit and continues her journey to travel the whole world. Maka has always loves her mother, as so as Black*Star. When she was still Spirit's wife, she told Maka and Black*Star about her journey around the world. She told them about pyramids, the awesomeness of Eiffel tower, how many windmills in Holland, and many more. Before she married Spirit, Kami was an adventurous woman. She used to be a traveler.
And now, Maka can't stand her father even more. She wants to have a life of adventure, just like her mother. Her father went to a business trip a few days ago, that what he said to Maka. But he actually goes to Chupa Cabra club to meet Blair. He haven't come back, plus, Black*Star is in a military training. She wants to escape the palace life. She wants to become a normal person, not carrying too much burden. She doesn't want to marry Kidd. Some maids said that he suffers serious OCD complexion. Of course Maka doesn't want to marry somekind of weirdo.
Maka carefully puts on the longest, thickest, darkest, and worst robe she has. She skillfully opens the tower's window and tosses a long rope. She wants to escape. She ditches her dress and swaps it with dull cloth. She also takes off her high heels and changes it with weary boots. She climbs to the window and holds the rope thightly.
She swiftly slides down with the help of the rope. She lands smoothly. So far, so great. She thought and she hides behind the bushes. Hoping the guards won't see her. But her winning smile only lasts for a few seconds. The alarm rings loudly. They notice her absence.
"Crap. They spot me." Maka curses (She's pretty bad for a princess) and she runs behind bushes. Not too lucky, a guard spots her. She sweatdrops. Shit. Kiss goodbye to freedom. Maka squats and covers her head. Suddenly something shades her. It's Marie.
"I'll search her here. You can go other way!" Marie commands the guard.
"But Ms. Head Maid. I can swear I saw something there!" He insists.
"Just follow my orders!" She shoos him away and squats.
"It's okay mistress." She says softly.
"Marie! Thank God! You saved me!" Maka hugs Marie.
"Shh don't speak loudly. You can go now." She comforts her.
"What will happen to you?" She asks her worriedly.
"I will be fine, mistress. Now, take this address, It's an acquaintance's of mine. Go!" Marie let go and commands her to move.
She nods and escapes. Eventough she was locked up, she reads many geography from the royal library. She reads the address:
"Patchwork Laboratories , Shibu Street, number 42. Professor Franken Stein." She keeps running. She doesn't care if she hit something or hurt herself. She continues running, and running, and running. She turns swiftly to the left, and she sees a dull street sign, it says: Shibu Street.
She jogs and counts the number, until she sees arrow buildings. Almost all stiched up. She walks towards it and knocks the door.
"Excuse me, I'm looking for Professor Stein." Maka pants. A boy opens the door.
"I'm sorry, but he is dead." The boy answers her.
"Oh, But can I come in?" Maka tiredly begs him.
"Sure, come in." He speaks in casual tone.
"Thank You…" Suddenly it's all pitch black. Maka loses consciousness. She lays down in the floor because of exhaustion.
A/N: Dumdumdumdum! Do you like the story? Sorry for making Spirit looks so bad. Can you guess the guy who opens the door? Ah! You must have guessed him! Okay I give you no spoiler, because I'm going to update the next chapter in short time. Sorry for the bad grammar and misspelling.
