This is my new story so be easy K? NO flames or else. This is a threat. If you can't say anything nice don't read it!! K anyway here it is.
I pick up a crystal sphere up off the floor. Hmmm I think. What is this? I look deep into the shiny sphere. The sphere doesn't seem to catch my interest so I threw it into the nearest pile of gold. I immediately start to dig through the gold coins, gems and other priceless items. I must hurry. I have don't' enough time till the king, or queen arrives. Stealing from royal families is what I do.
I have never been caught and I never will be. Sometimes I get tired of this but I can't go back home. Why you ask? Well I did runaway after all. Plus they don't want me as a daughter anymore, not that they ever did.
They disowned me. Not that it bothers me. They are a bunch of low lives, which use children to do their deeds. They disgust me. They deserve to burn in hell.
I am totally different from them even if they are my parents... no were my parents.
They are thieves. I may be one too but I have no looks from them. My hair is black; their hair is red. My eyes are brown; their eyes are hazel. My skin is tanned their skin is white.
I don't even know why I'm thinking about them. I sigh with an emotion unknown to others and myself.
"AHEM!!!"
I swerve around to see who it was. I'm caught.
I glance at the window perhaps I could make an escape. No that wouldn't work this person knows my disguise they will search for me if I run.
I slowly stand up. I may be small but I have the speed of a cat. I could jump from the window even if it is four floors down.
" I suppose your looking for this?"
I can't see the person. But his voice sound smooth, young, and taunting.
I look around madly trying to find the person with the voice. Until he steps in to the light. It's the prince though I have never seen him I could tell by the cloths. He was wearing a purple cape (wow that is brave of him to wear such a feminine color) brave or foolish. He was also wearing black pants and a white shirt, which had a symbol on it.
But I couldn't make it out. He extends his hand and there is the staff I was looking for. It had green and black gems covering it with a gold point.
"Um... no, yes. I don't know"
Great come back. I could have kicked my self.
I took three steps up and I could see the person more clearly.
And let me tell you he was pretty easy on the eyes.
He was tall and broad with chestnut brown hair and startling blue eyes.
All of the sudden my heart did a flip-flop. I know what your thinking this is happening to fast. But hey I just said the guy was cute not that I in love with him or anything.
Anyway the prince whose name I haven't gotten yet leaned against the wall giving me an amused look.
I just stood there frozen. I pretty sure my blood froze in my veins but not because he was hot ... no but because he caught me. What was he going to do?
But then he smiled and well all those thoughts slipped my mind.
God this was the prince! WOW!
"How can you be a thief when you don't even know what you're looking for?"
He said again with the taunting voice.
OK he just got me pissed off. He and his British accent just got me pissed off.
Thankfully he can't see me I was wearing my hood and cape. It was suppose to camouflage but I guess in a white room I pretty much stick out. Damn.
"I happened to have forgotten for you have startled me with you voice (and British accent)"
I pulled my hood down even more. I couldn't risk it if he saw me. I am NOT going to appear on a wanted poster.
"HMPPH!!! Some thief. You could at least try making an excuse for your stealing. Show yourself"
His amused look turned in to a scowl.
"And why should I? So you could throw me into a dungeon?"
"Do you dare disobey me?"
"Yes I'm willing to take that chance"
"Take your hood off NOW!!!"
"If you wish PRINCE!!!"
(Trying to mock his accent)
I lifted my hand to my hood and wiped off my hood.
My short brown hair falls from the small hoop I kept it in.
I heard him gasp. HA. Take that.
I glare at him.
"A thief that is a girl?"
No duh.
"That is very unlikely. My father caught a lot of thieves but none of them are girls."
He seemed very surprised. He is a sexist.
"So your saying that us women are to weak to do as other thieves does. For your information PRINCE I am no weakling" I shout this right back at him.
He looked extremely surprised. And looked cute doing so.
He smiles "That's not what I meant. It's just over whelming that there is such thing as a girl thief. Although I've never encountered one"
"So your going to report me are?"
"Of course I will. I won't go easy on you just because you're a girl." He said simply
I planted my feet on the floor ready to run.
"Well then see ya!!"
I ran toward the window and dived out. The wind played around with me blowing gusts of wind here and there. I finally got in control and landed gracefully on the ground (might I add also on my two feet)
I stood there trying to figure out what just happened.
Until I heard
"GUARDS!!!! GET HER!!"
Ok this got me running again. I ran toward the gates. I heard footsteps behind me I look back to see at least four guards chasing me. I kept running I saw there were two guards near the gates. Damn.
The gates were moving. Huh? What was wrong with this picture?
Finally I understood they were closing the big hefty gates.
I started to run faster and the guards started to push harder. Finally when I got to the gates it shut right in front of me. SHIT!
I tried to jump over but something pulled down on me. I looked down and there was one of the guards. He had grabbed and with one pull. I crumbled to the floor.
I looked up and saw four black figures. I scrambled to my feet.
But it was too late. Two of the guards got hold of my arms. And kept me there.
I struggled. I pulled my arms and kicked but... no good.
Then I saw a black figure coming our way.
It was the prince.
"That was not such a smart move"
"What would you know about smart?"
"You're a funny thief. I'll make you a deal you become a stable girl in my fathers palace and I won't report you. You will stay a stable girl until my father meeting is over then I'll come down to bring you up to help with a ball that will take place in the palace. My mother wants me to find a wife even though I'm still 16" he said slight shaking his head
"And you're telling me this because?"
"Because if you don't take up this option I'll just have to report you"
Ok I'm beat. What was I going to do?
Sigh, "Fine I'll stay"
"I thought you would. What's your name"
"My name is.......... Non of your concern"
"Do you wish for me to tell my father that?"
UGHHHH
"Brat" I muttered
This just made him smile.
"My name is Esillah I am 15 years old, disowned and a thief. Well not technically I steal from the rich and give to the poor" I try to keep my head up but my cheeks are burning madly.
"Disowned??!!! 15??!! Wow, you are the youngest thief I have met"
"The Medflockers didn't need me anymore. Once I figured out they were using me I ran away. Anymore questions?"
"I'm sorry I didn't expect a thief's life to end up so dreadful"
"Yeah well now you know"
Silence
"I'll take you to the stables. Guards let her go"
I followed behind him. What did I just get myself into?
He leads me out of the front path and lead me back inside. I went through a hall that had a lot of family portraits and he led me down spirally stairs.
The prince and me enter the kitchen then go through a doorway at the back that leads to the stable. When is this going to end? While the prince talked to a stable boy I walked over to the closet stable with a horse.
Sigh, "Ill have to take care of you horses. But you won't see me for long. I'll run away again and one of you horses are coming with me"
The prince comes over to me and says
"By the way I'm Dan"
"
I
