"I cannot stand being here anymore Amadahy!" I said in a frustrated tone, as she finished cutting my hair.
Amadahy smiled lightly as she chuckled lightly and said, "That is why we are leaving tonight Princess Akemi. So that you won't have to stay here any longer."
"Amadahy I thought I told you to stop calling me Princess! You've known me too long for that!" I said as Amadahy tilted my head up to make it was even on both sides.
"Princess, you know as well as I do that although your parents found me when I was little and that we have grown up together as little girls, I will never be your equal." Amadahy said, as she began to style my hair a bit.
"I cannot believe you would even say that Ama-Chan!" I started, my smooth voice becoming harsh. "You are practically my sister and are my equal! So do not say foolish things like that to me!"
"As you wish Aki-Chan." Amadahy replied as she rolled her cerulean blue eyes.
There was a brief silence after, until Amadahy exclaimed, "There it is perfect!"
"What is?" I asked slightly confused.
"Your hair silly." Amadahy said with a bright smile on her face, as she turned me around to see what she had accomplished with my hair.
The cut reached my shoulders in length and framed my face nicely. Amadahy also added bangs to the style and put choppy layers into my hair. My eyes lit up as I did not recognize myself in the mirror.
"Holy crow this is amazing!" I shouted as I ran my right hand through my hair. "You are the best Ama-Chan!" I yelled as I hugged her.
"I am glad you like it." Amadahy said, smiling as she returned the hug. "I figured since your hair used to be so long, that people would not recognize you with your hair short."
"Which will be a good thing when we make our escape." I said, mischievous intent shown through my eyes.
"Exactly." Amadahy said happily.
I looked over my shoulder and smiled at my friend and sister. I must say that I admired her beauty a lot. What with her wavy royal blue hair and soft cerulean blue eyes that would make others envious. Her skin was light mocha color for some reason her skin was always slightly moist. When asked why this was, Amadahy had said that this was most likely due to the fact that she was a water demon.
"Oh my, it is almost time for the festival! We should change!" Amadahy said, as she pulled away from our hug, while walking over to my wardrobe, and kneeling down to one of the drawers.
"How much longer do we have until it starts?" I asked, as I made my way to stand behind my friend.
Amadahy stopped her searching, with wide eyes, saying, "Roughly an hour. Why?"
"That's such a long ways away though!" I said, a small sigh escaped my lips.
"Oh hush Aki-Chan!" Amadahy said, while resuming her search. "At the rate you change, we will only have fifteen minutes to- AHA- wait." (Aya: In case you're wondering, Ama-Chan went Aha because she found what she was looking for.)
"You say that as if I purposely take forever to dress." I said, as I looked down at my attire.
At that moment, I wore a white dress that was accented by , had a corset style top, that had a silver thread cord to tighten it in the front, and though the top was tight, the bottom flowed away from my body. Of course that was not all I was wearing, for I had two additional skirts under my dress, an actual corset, and of course a small acrenaline (Aya: An acrenaline is almost like a hoop skirt, except that it is made of cloth. It serves the purpose of making a dress move away from the body. This is mostly used for dress that need to look fuller on the bottom, and most wedding dresses have them built in.)
"I guess not, but you could work a bit faster than what you do." Amadahy said with a small smirk.
"Well excuse me, if I am unable to change swiftly from an outfit that took two women to put on!" I said, my voice clearly showing my irritation. For though I knew Amadahy was baiting me, I could not help but get irritated at her mentioning a subject she knew I had a distaste for.
"I would be happy to oblige with your request my Princess." Amadahy said, as she handed me a change of clothes.
I glared at the women before me, while taking the clothes from her and saying, "I swear Amadahy of the Water that sometimes you do things just to see me lose my composure!"
"That is only because your emotionless composure does not suit you well." Amadahy said with a smile. "I much prefer the free spirited side that you have only shared with me."
I blushed lightly as a grin held my features. I must say that though I was embarrassed by what my friend said, I was not ashamed of her words. In fact, I took comfort and happiness in them.
"Oh, just change already so that we may stop wasting time." I said, as I started to undo the button on the back of my dress.
Amadahy rolled her eyes at me, before leaving my room to go change in her own. Ten minutes after she left, I accomplished getting my first layer of clothing off, when a knock resounded on my door.
"You may enter!" I said, as I attempted untying my corset.
I heard the door open and close, as an all to familiar voice said, "Dear God woman, let me take care of that!"
"It is so nice to see how refined your language is Ama-Chan." I said, I as felt her hands tap mine, and start working on getting my corset to come loose.
"And I am sure you would have it no other way." Amadahy said as she worked.
Silence filled the room after she said that, though it was not awkward. It was the type of silence that was comforting just because you had the other person there. Everything also started sailing smoothly after that as well. After fifteen minutes, my corset was off, after five my chest was bound by bandages, after ten my skirts had come off, and it only took five minutes for me to dress.
"I guess you were right Amadahy we really do only have fifteen more minutes until the festival begins." I said, as I looked at myself in the mirror.
I had on a black tank top shirt on, that fit to my form, black shorts that reached my knees, and a pair of black flats.
"As I always am." She said, as she came up behind me in the same style outfit, except her outfit was blue. "Wow if I did not know any better, I would say you are not my Princess and my friend."
"That is the point of it all though." I said smiling. "Come now, we must get ready to take our leave!" I said, while walking over to my four poster bed.
Once I was there, I concentrated a bit of light to my hands, and made a projection of myself sitting on the bed. It looked realistic, and until someone touched it, they would not know that it was not really me.
Now that I had finished that, I looked to Amadahy and frowned slightly, for other than her clothes, you could reasonably tell who she was. "Ama-Chan, how are we to escape if you do not look any different from every other day?"
"Oh that's easy!" She said, while snapping her fingers.
Instantly, a puff of some enveloped her so that she became unseen. Once the smoke faded however, she had long orange hair with blonde highlights, pale skin, and blue-green eyes. So basically she looked like every other Light Demon in the Kingdom.
"Now wait a minute!" I said, a little agitated, "If you can change appearance of things, then why did you have to cut my hair?"
"Because I can only change my own appearance silly. I have not worked out changing others yet." She replied.
I nodded quickly, saying, "Let us be on our way."
With that being said, Amadahy and I swiftly made our way to the door of my room, and carefully snuck out of the castle.
An hour later, and Amadahy and I were able to blend in perfectly with everyone else. No one suspected us of being that what we really were, and we were able to enjoy ourselves for the first time in years.
About thirty minutes after that, Amadahy and I decided it was time to blend in with the background, and keep a low profile. With that done, it was quite easy for us to walk right out of the Kingdoms walls not even ten minutes later.
So I added two chaps in one day...
Oh no Hell froze over!
Naw jk it's fine... XD
Anywho, I thought this chap would never ever end. It was long for me. I was very very glad though that I got to show Akemi and Amadahy's relationship, and I hope you enjoyed it.
Until next time.
