"Mister. Mister. Hey. Wake up!"

"Wh-what? What just happened?". I slowly opened my eyes and asked. "I don't know. You just appeared in front of me. Well, above me. You fell on me." A kid said. I stood up and then helped the kid up. "That's not a proper way to speak to a prince, kid." I said. He looked at me from head to toe. Then he started poking me, looked at my crown and took it. Then he said:

"The crown seems real but you don't look like a prince at all. Are you sure you're a prince or are you just delusional?"

Why you little.. I wanted to kill him. But when I looked in his eyes, something was stopping me from taking a knife out and stabbing him. "Why won't you kill me? I know. I can read your mind."Why didn't you run when you read it?" I asked. He didn't reply. He just took my hand and pulled me

"You're not from this world, are you?" he asked me. What? Then I remembered what happened before I met him. Maybe he is right. One second, I'm in my room then the next thing I know, I was chatting with a kid somewhere outside the castle (or somewhere not in my world).

I asked him: "Does an organization named Varia exist in this place?". He looked at me straight in the eye and said: "You really are not from this world. That organization is long gone."

Gone? What does he mean? Varia can't be gone! We're the strongest! But then again, this isn't the my world.

I asked for his name. "Sora. Minamoto Sora. And you?" he replied. "Belphegor. That's all I can tell you."

"Hey! I remembered! You say you're a prince, right?" he said. "Yeah. Why?". "Want to meet our town's princess? I overheard some guards talking about a parade that the princess will attend to. Want to come?".

This kid is weird. He's the first person who is younger than me that I met that isn't afraid of me even though he knew I wanted to kill him. Wait, no. Fran is. I wonder why he's still like that to me after I tried to kill him.

"If you're really bothered by that, then I'll tell you. I consider you as a friend. You wanted to kill me but you didn't. That's why. Okay?" he said. I was speechless. It's the first time anyone has told me that.

The parade started. There were musicians, fireworks, and street dancers. Sora and I were having the time of our lives, especially me. It's probably my first time going to a parade with someone who considers me as a friend. Or is it?

The place suddenly became silent. Then I heard some trumpets. "She's coming!" one of the old guys in the crowd said. Then the gates to the castle opened. There she was, the princess. I couldn't see her face because of the lights that were blocking my sight. But when the lights weren't in my eyes anymore, was shocked with what I saw. She looked exactly like him.

"Is that Fran?!"
