Beauty and the Samurai.
There once lived a handsome Samurai prince, he had everything and anything, but this prince was selfish, ruthless and unkind. His people and many more were fearful of him and his wrath.
On one stormy winters night the prince sat in his massive library with only one candle to light the pages of the book, he had long midnight black hair tied up in a high ponytail on his head, with two bangs of hair framing his pale, sour face. His eyes were like black sapphires glistening in the moonlight, but they never held emotion.
Suddenly there was a knock on the castle doors, the prince did not move, just focused on his book, thinking that one of his servants would get it. The knocking went on for a few minutes, so the prince decided that since all of his servants had suddenly gone deaf or lacking off the prince went to get it himself.
He stormed down the dark corridor. When he got to the door he pulled it open with a sharp tug, his eyes found the form of a small hooded person.
"What the hell do you want?" The prince snapped coldly at the figure.
"Please good sir, I have nowhere to go, could I stay a night. I have nothing to offer, except the lotus flower". The figure said and presented the lotus flower to the prince.
"Why the hell would I want a flower, leave now" the prince went to shut the door, but as he did the persons hand went forward and grabbed the door to stop it from closing.
A huge gust of wind whipped around the figure and blew the hood off the persons head to reveal a young girls face, she had grey skin and golden eyes and stigma across her forehead, her hair was short and spiked up, she smiled a twisted, crazy smile.
"Now now, that wasn't very nice" the girl said in a sickly sweet voice, "by the power of the Noah Clan, I Road Kamalot Noah of Dreams curse you and your castle into eternal misery" Road declared and then started to chant in a language that the prince didn't understand.
"What the fuck are you talk-" the prince's words were cut off as he feel to the ground in pain, his bones felt like they were snapping and reforming, his shoulders started to get broader and more bulky, his slender long fingers got bigger, hair that matched the hair on his head started to grow all over.
"w-what...ha-have y-you done?" He said though his pain as he stared at the girl in front of him.
"Isn't it obvious? I've cursed you, you look as horrid on the outside as you are in, the only way to break the curse is to fall in love and earn their love in return. You have until the last petal on this lotus flower falls." Road answered as if it was the easiest thing in the world and then, she vanished.
Years passed and the price lost all hope of breaking the curse, for who in their right mind would love a hideous beast?
A young girl of 16 with dark hair tied up into two pigtails slowly walked down a dirt path into the small village she and her friend lived near.
"I bet this day is going to be the same as any other day" the girl muttered to herself, she hated this day, every bloody day seemed exactly the same.
"Bonjour!" One person shouted down to the street bellow from their window, the cycle has started, and once it's going, the people won't stop till it's done.
"Bonjour!" Another person cried.
"Bonjour!" A woman said to two more women
"Bonjour!" The two women answered at the same time.
"Ah Lenalee! " Somebody in the already crowed street called her over and greeted her; it was the town's baker."Where are you off to today?" he asked.
"The book shop sir, I finished this amazing story about a samurai that get thrown into the future by his mortal enemy an-"Lenalee said, but then got interrupted.
"That's nice. Toma, we need more begets!" He shouted though the window he was standing at.
Lenalee walked away, everyone was now talking about her, and they said about her unusual beauty and strange love for reading books, they could never get their small minds to try to understand her.
"That Lenalee, she's the most beautiful girl in town, flawless looks, fair skin, long silky hair and glistening eyes like amethysts, oh I wish I had her looks!" One girl cried to her mother.
But behind her beauty, she's rather odd" the girl's mother said.
Lenalee arrived at the bookshop, stepped inside, and was greeted by a short man with big glasses and afro hair tied back.
"Good Morning Lenalee" Jonny said, he knew she would rather that greeting than bonjour any day.
"Good Morning Johnny, I came to return the book I borrowed" Lenalee smiled as she handed the book back.
"You always finish so quick, how do you do it?" Johnny asked as he placed the book down and smiled up at Lenalee as she claimed a ladder to get to the top shelf.
"I just couldn't stop reading it, it was brilliant, and I loved it!" Lenalee exclaimed as she scanned though the books titles and then picked on out, "I'll borrow this on please Johnny" she said as she handed him the book.
"Cinderella? But Lenalee, you've read this one 5 times already, are you sure it hasn't got boring by now?" Johnny asked.
"Nope, I just love it" she replied as she got off the ladder.
"Well then you can have it" Johnny said.
"What?" Lenalee exclaimed as she looked at the older man.
"Go on, no one reads it anyway" He insisted.
"Thank you Johnny" Lenalee said happily and walked out of the small shop to walk back home.
Lenalee was almost out of the village, but was stopped as the book she was reading since she left the bookstore was plucked out of her fingers., she looked up and was meet with a pair of golden eyes.
"Oh, great. Tyki" she thought, groaning on the inside on how unlucky she was to run into him.
"Good day Lenalee" Tyki said as his eyes lazily scanned the pages as he flicked though them, not really caring, and then threw it over his shoulder, like it was rubbish and then turned back to Lenalee. "I've come to-"he was interrupted as Lenalee kicked him in the chin and knocked him out.
"How dare you!" three girls cried and rushed over to Tyki's unconscious body. "Go help your crazy weird friend!" They cried again.
"Allen's not crazy or weird, he's different and way more smarter than any of you!" Lenalee defended her friend and then heard an explosion coming from the house that Allen and Lenalee shared smoke slowly seeping from the cellar door and window.
She rushed towards the caller and opened the doors to let the smoke out faster, after a couple of seconds she walked into the cellar.
"Allen" she called worryingly as she looked for her friend.
"Over here Lenalee" came a males voice though the smoke, a boy with white hair and an odd scar running down the left side of his face he sat down on a nearby stool, he was covered head to toe in sot, he didn't look very happy.
"Allen, are you ok?" Lenalee asked as she sat on another stool next to him.
"I'm fine Lenalee" Allen sighed "I give up on this stupid invention, it's never going to work" Allen sulked, crossed his arms and glared at the 'stupid invention'.
"Of course it will Allen, you'll win fist prize and we'll move out of this boring town" Lenalee tried to encourage him, but it seemed he needed a bit more of stroking his ego as he just continued to sulk. "And pay off Cross's depts." She continued.
Allen's silver eyes slowly moved to stare at Lenalee, his eyes searched her face for a moment.
"You sure?" He asked as if he was a small child asking his mum for sweets.
"Can I lie to you?" She asked him and smiled sweetly at him.
After a few minutes, Allen smiled.
"Well then, let's get started" he said as he got on the ground and crawled under the machine. "Lenalee, can you pass me spanner?" He asked from underneath the machine. "So did you have a good time in town today?" He asked again.
"I got another book," she said as she reached Allen's feet, she stared at the book as she turned it over in her hands. "Allen do you think I'm odd?" She asked him in a curious tone.
"My best friend Lenalee, the same Lenalee that helped in off of the streets when Cross disappeared and has treated me like her own brother, odd? Where did you get that idea Lenalee?" He asked as he came out from underneath the machine to stare at her.
"Well" Lenalee started, but found it difficult to find the right words, "people talk" she finally said as she handed Allen the tool he had asked for and he then went back under.
"They talk about me too" Allen replied.
"I just don't have anyone besides from you Allen, to talk to" she sighed.
"What about Tyki? He's handsome" Allen pointed out as he blindly reached and then grabbed onto another tool.
"Tyki? He's handsome but a downright snob, he's not for me Allen" she sighed and sat down and rested her chin on the palm of her hand.
"Well then, I won't force you into anything, Lenalee, you're not odd, you aren't like them" Allen said as he came out from under the machine and smiled softly at Lenalee. "Most of all, you're the best friend I've ever had and no one no matter how hard they try would change my mind" he continued.
"Thanks Allen, you're the best" Lenalee spoke softly and hugged Allen tightly.
"U-um...y-you're welcome Le-Lenalee" Allen stuttered, he still wasn't very good around girls.
Lenalee let go after a few minutes and they both stood up.
"Now that might have done it, so let's give it a try" Allen whispered and grabbed onto a lever and pulled it.
An ear splitting whistle sounded and Allen and Lenalee dove for cover, just in case, but instead of failing and just making an explosion a chain reaction was started as something started to pump air, which went into the belly of the machine to fuel the coal, the gears started to turn and then the axe, swung down onto the log that was set in front of it.
The axe did this numerous of times until the piece was separated from the rest of the wood, when that was done the piece of wood was thrown over Allen's and Lenalee's heads and landed perfectly on a big log pile.
"It works!" Allen and Lenalee cried at the same time.
"Lenalee, help me get read. I'm off to the fair, and I'll finally be able to pay off Cross's depts.!" Allen exclaimed happily.
"Ok Allen" Lenalee said, she was happy that he got it working, many things never went the way things Allen wanted them to, but now, he got a bit of luck on his side, and she was proud of him.
