Lily walked down the cobblestone streets of Sibonda. She was a Theif, but not any Theif. Lily was proud to say she was The Princess of Theives. Lily like many Princesses, was beautiful. With her waist length wavey aurburn hair, bright forest green eyes, creamy white skin, curvey body, full lips, and small feet, some would say she was the most beautiful being to walk on earth.
Lily was abandoned by her parents at the age of 4. They died shortly after and Lily was brought to the Kingdom of Theives. There she became one of the best Theives ever. Lily was an experts at flirting, fighting, healing, cooking, cleaning, sewing, kives, swords, bows & arrows, planing, leading, lauguages, and escaping. She used her intense beauty to befuddle men and was barely ever caught or blamed. Lily was often called apon to plan and escape of a Theif, whom landed themself in prison. She also learned so many lauguages they were uncoutable. The Theives had to learn many diffeent laguages because they lived in many different countries.
Highly respected among the Theives,many wanted her to be their Princess. But as tradition goes Lily had to battle with the current princess. She did and she won. The King of Theives was no other than one of her friends, Jonathan. Although he was only 2 years older than Lily, 18, Jonathan made a great leader. Unlike Lily, Jonathan stayed in the Kingdom of Theives. Lily stayed in Sibonda because she had also taken on the duties as The Guardian of Sibonda Theives.
Meaning she was sworn to protect and help all Theives in Sibonda. her household was formed into a headquarter like home for Theives. She provided them with clothes, protection, healing, food, shelter, cleaning and anything else. Constantly Theives came to stay for the night and left in the morning. There were different Guardians in every country and city. This was because Jonathan needed Theives stationed in all the cities to keep informed on what went on.
Lily walked into a shabby tavern, called 'The Night Owl'. She decided that she'd add some loot to her collection that she was to give to Jonathan in a matter of two days. A table occupied by three Theives gave her unnoticed bows, eager to see her steal something. Lily smiled in return. Men eyed her. Lily sat down at a table that clearly occupied by a noble. Although she detested nobles, she found it most enjoyable to steal from them. He eyed her with approval.
"I am Lord Richard of Agathmalla." He spoke, his hazelnut eyes twinkling.
"Lady Ivon." Lily replied, she never gave out her real name to people whom she stealed from.
"A pleasure to meet you." Lord Richard said, his eyes shifted to her torso. Lily felt disgusted by this but she didn't show it.
"The pleasure is all mine." Lily said fluttering her eye lashes elegantly.
"Is there something in your eye, milady?" The Young Lord asked. He clearly liked to embaress madiens.
"Yes, milord. Pherhaps you could get it out for thy." She said leaning in. As Lord Richard looked into her lovely eyes, he did not notice her slim hand pull a bag of gold and jewels from his cloak. She kissed him lightly on the cheek and stored the bag into a pocket of her skirts. No one noticed but the Theives nearby.
"I'll see you around, Lord Richard." She said as she walked towards the door.
"Call me Richard." He called to her.
Lily left the tavern briskley wondering if he'd notice that some of his possesions were... missing. She walked into The Bakery. It was so crowded with people you could barely see anything. Perfect. Lily thought. She slyly picked up a basket of bread and pastries, and slipped out of the shop. Walking towards her home or Sibonda Theives Headquarters. She slipped into the house and laid the basket on the kitchen table.
Kevien, one of the Theives walked in. He had short brown hair and handsome blue eyes, not to mention a strong built body. He smiled as he saw her. She returned it. Kevien gave a mock-bow and Lily returned it with a curtsy. Kevien rolled his eyes.
"What's for breakfast, your highness?' he asked.
"Nothing." Lily said scarcasticlly. "I nicked some pastries from a Bakery." She exclaimed as she set the plates on the table.
"Theives Arvien and Rilia left for Talmous, after you left this morning. There are only 9 of us present, including you and I, princess." Kevien said, as he started to help with the silverware.
"Alright, Kevien. And keep calling me 'Lily'. Sometimes when people call me 'Princess' or 'Your Magesty' it reminds me of snobby nobles. Of yes that reminds me..." Lily's voice flattering as she pulled the bag out of her skirts.
"Yes, Lily. Ooo. Whatcha got there? And which noble did you steal it from?" Kevien asked.
Lily smiled, "Well, it's some gold & jewels. I took it from Lord Richard of Agathmalla. He is so thick."
"Lord Richard? I remember him. He has such a sick mind." Kevien said shaking his head in disgust.
"Tell me about it. Anyways, would you be so kind to keep charge when I go to The Kingdom? I might have to stay longer than expected. At least that's what I heard." Lily said.
"Of course I will. It's not like a really have a choice, do I? I am deputy guardian." He said smiling.
Lily rolled her eyes as they finshed setting the table. "Good."
"Rispah and Phillip have just came back from The Kingdom of Theives. So their bound to tell us what's going on." Kevien replied.
"Yes I'll call everyone down for breakfast." Lily said smiling.
All nine Theives sat at the table eating.
"So Rispah, Phillip. Mind telling us what's going on in Theives?" Lily asked.
"Well you see, your highness. Caspian from Frell has been imprisioned in Allensoalon for stealing. So i'm sure that you'll be called for an escape plan. Apparatlly, Theif Gildeon was eaten by orges. The Little Lass Adriane has stoled from The Royal Palace of Galensol, she's been congratalated on that. And..." Rispah said smiling.
"I must congratulate Adriane!" A Theif named Myles said grinning like a madman. Lily smiled.
"And?" Lily asked. Rispah rolled over laughing.
"Well, you see Lily. Er.. The King of Theives and you have been invited to a ball in Frell. And.." Phillip said and started laughing. Lily looked shocked and disgusted.
"And, Lily.. you and the king may stay there for a month. It seems like Queen Ella has been playing match-maker! I do say her son Prince Daneil is really handsome though." Rispah said as she and Phil stopped laughing.
"Uh, Queen Ella has picked the wrong Princess." Lily said clearly disgusted.
"Your so lucky! You get to meet Queen Ella." Emily one of the younger theives said. She was about 13.
"They'll get along fine. Queen Ella has proven herself worthy of her position. But I feel bad for Prince Daniel, he'll be in for a surprise. He hasn't proven himself. And Lily isn't found of nobles." Ryan said wickedly. Lily rolled her eyes.
"I won't deny it. But it's true." She said.
"Anyways your highness. The only reason King Jonathan is going, is because King Charmount and Queen Ella need to steal the Toulalsion Amulet from their Enemy Vouklason. Who had somehow stole it from Frell. And with the amulet Vouklason can do terrible things." Phillip exclaimed, a shiver went down their spines at his last words.
"We'll have alot to hold over them Royalties, once Lily and Jon steal it!" Kevien exclaimed, he was one of the only ones that called King Jonathan by his nickname besides Lily and some others.
"Who said Lily and King Jonathan are suppose to steal it?" Asked Minerva.
"Their going to Frell. And plus it takes some of the most skilled Theives to steal from Vouklason." Myles exclaimed.
"Oh." Was all Minerva could say. It was clear that she was embaressed.
"Um, Lily. Would you mind if I company you on your way to The Kingdom? I was going there and I don't like traveling alone..." Emily asked hopefully.
"I was heading there to. Can I go with you? It would be such an honor. And I'd hate to be stuck going there with Emily!" Ryan said, with puppy dog eyes.
"Don't flatter me." Lily said smiling, "Of course you two can come with me."
Emily jumped up in the air,"Yes, I'm already packed! What about you, Ryan?"
Same here." Ryan said smiling.
"Alright, we better get ready to leave. We're going there by horse." Lily said, she added," If you don't have one, we can steal one from someone."
"I'm gonna ride Bandit!" Ryan exclaimed.
"I'm riding Moonlight!" Emily replied.
"I'll ride Rain then." Lily said she got off her chair and washed her plate.
Then they got ready to go to The Kingdom of Theives.
