The Dancer and The Princess
Chapter 1
Inigo looked outside the flaps of his tent, sighing at the world outside, twirling a small rose in his hand, "Damn..." he muttered to himself, "Another chance wasted.." "What's up!?" a voice called him, it was Yarne, who poked his head through the opening. "What do you want?" Inigo asked, quite irritated at the taguel's sudden appearance, "I'm sorry!" Yarne said, quite offended and somewhat frightened at his tone, "Is there a problem?" "No..." Inigo responded sarcastically, "I love sitting in solitude inside my tent on a glorious day!" "Sheesh! Did Frederick's food not agree with you!?" Yarne growled, "No! What's it to you!?" Inigo yelled, "Oh Ok!" Yarne responded and left abruptly. "Finally..." Inigo sighed in relief, only for it to last a few seconds until a new face appeared, "Is there a negative predicament here?" the intelligent voice of Laurent rang, "Augh..." Inigo groaned and facepalmed, "Can you just leave?!" "Oh... That is an alarming tone of voice, Inigo... Is there a problem, perhaps a tribulation, you are passing?" Laurent asked, "I may be of help, but you have to help me categorize the problem.." "How about you go away?" Inigo grunted, "Are you positive I should leave? If so, I should, I am not one to shove in to people's conflicts? Am I shoving.. I hope not." Laurent mumbled as he looked in a book, "How about I shove my foot up your a-" Inigo was interrupted by a third person walking in. "Inigo, ya here?!" Brady's rash voice sounded into the humble abode, his head following suit, "Ah! There ya are! Hurry up will ya?! That tea isn't going to wait! Plus! It's that expensive crap!" he said, "Huh..." Inigo said in frustration and covered his entire face with both hands, "What's up with you!?" Brady yelled, "It seems our friend here is having a negative predicament." Laurent told him, "But I have not been able to discover what it is." "Oh..." Brady mumbled, "Is this 'bout Lucina and all that love malarkey?" Brady asked Inigo, " BE QUIET WILL YA!?" Inigo yelled and ran to cover Brady's mouth. "What is going on here!?" Kjelle butted in, her armor pushing aside Brady and Laurent, "Inigo seems to be having a terrible day from the recent information I have been given." Laurent responded, "Oh..." Kjelle said in realization, "Is it that again Inigo? Just ask her to the dance already!" she yelled, "SHUSH!" Inigo yelled once more and quickly retreated from Brady to cover her. "Oy! What is going on here!" the old hoarse voice of Gregor reached them, "Gregor just hear yelling of youth from the training ground!" "It's none of your business old-timer!" Brady yelled, causing Gregor to snarl at him, "Oy! Watch it there!" Gregor yelled and drew out his sword, "Last time Gregor check, Brady cannot attack with petty staff!" "Agh!" Brady said in shock as Gregor's blade hovered over his throat, "Cut it out!" Kjelle yelled, "Um... I do not think that is very appropriate to say.." Laurent commented, "Seeing that Gregor's weapon is hovering over a very vital part of Brady's body." "They know what I mean!" Kjelle objected, and Gregor withdrew his weapon, much to Brady's relief. "Now, what is problem?" Gregor turned his attention to the other youths, "Nothing... The predicament seems to be restricted to Inigo, Kjelle, and Brady..." Laurent told him, "Ok..." Gregor mumbled, "But no more loud noises!" he yelled and left quickly...

"So..." Kjelle mumbled as she and Inigo trekked in the nearby woods, "Are you even going to do it!?" "I don't even know, Kjelle..." Inigo responded, "Sure you may think I'm this 'Grand Casanova' of a guy, but she seems to be the Wyrmsbane to my Wyvern." he said, "I hope that last part was not a euphemism..." Kjelle grumbled, "But I think you can ask her to the dance! It's Lucina! Just treat her like any random lass you find on the street!" "By the gods no!" Inigo said, quite offended, "Lucina is a goddess among women! You only find types like her every comet crossing!" "Ugh..." Kjelle groaned, "If you're that infatuated by her, just ask her to the ball!" she yelled, stomping her foot as she did, Inigo flinched at her spontaneous action. "I can't!" he yelled back, "There is no hope between us! She's a princess and I'm a worthless carefree vagabond!" "How pathetic!" Kjelle spat back, "Look at you! You can probably date 75% the women on the damn planet and you can't even ask out one!" "Huh..." Inigo sighed, "You're right... Look at me." he grumbled and sat on a nearby rock, "I'm just a miserable failure of a man..." Kjelle could not help but to look down in pity, "Huh..." she sighed, "I didn't mean that, Inigo. I just wanted you to man up and ask her out... Plus, I heard she takes interest in you." she mumbled, "What?" Inigo looked up, a ray of hope shining in his eyes, "Are you for real?" "I'm with her everyday... I'm basically her best friend!" Kjelle said with a smile, "But don't go telling anyone, it was a secret." she warned, Inigo only gave her an 'Are you serious?' face. "Wow..." Inigo mumbled and put on his big grin, "I can't believe it! Ha Ha!" he danced in jubilee, "The Princess of Ylisse likes me!" "Alright! Alright!" Kjelle yelled at his overreaction, "I told you, now go get her! Don't stand there dancing like a fool!" "You're right!" Inigo responded and stopped his act, "Here I go! Many thanks!" he said, kissed both her cheeks, and ran off. "Weirdo... Huh... But I can't believe I told him that!" Kjelle yelled, "This is what you get for lying." a stern voice called her, it was Gerome, who was walking Minerva, "Huh... I know." Kjelle sighed...

"Inigo, hold up!" Morgan yelled as the philanderer ran past her tent, which Inigo skid across the floor to stop, "Why now Morgan! I'm really busy!" Inigo groaned as he walked towards her, "I need you to send a message to Gregor, since he is the only first generation person here!" Morgan responded, "My father says that there might be a hostile Risen presence nearby, and that he wants Gregor to plan for nightfall so we can sleep safe!" "Why can't you do it!?" Inigo growled, "Because I have to organize all the books in both mine and my father's library!" Morgan objected, "And I won't be done until supper, which is nightfall!" "Fine!" Inigo yelled and stormed off, "Don't forge-" "I WON'T!" he yelled and continued running, "Lucina here I come.."
