Francis POV ends~
Two blonds looked at each other, curiously. They were a few centimeters away each other.
"Who are you?" asked the slim, messy short blond hair curiously. Francis only looked at the bushy eyebrow adored by the man's below forehead. Arthur eyebrow twitched in annoyance because he noticed it.
"Who are you?" repeated Arthur in annoyance. He tried his best to be polite though. Francis snapped off and looked at Arthur's face in confusion mixed with curiosity.
"Moi?" said the shoulder-length blond hair, unsure while he pointed his finger to himself. The other blond nodded, understood what he was trying to say; Even though he hates French. Arthur is a fast learner, learning new things in his own ways.
"Je vous prie de m'excuse. (I apologize) Mon est François Bonnefoi. (My name is Francis Bonnefoy)" introduced the other blond as he bows gracefully.
"Je vous prie de m'excuser de vous demande soudainement. Savez-vous comment vous parlez anglais ? (I apologize for asking you suddenly. Do you know how you speak English?)" asked Arthur in French, irritatingly. He hates speaking French. Francis was shocked about knowing his own language, and he speak perfectly well! He never notice that he asked him in annoyance by his tone. He stop bowing and stood up straight and looked at Arthur in surprised.
"Vous savez comment narler le langage de l'amour!? (You know how to speak the language of love!?)" exclaimed Francis, ignoring Arthur's question. Arthur sighed in frustration and annoyance.
"Je ne sais pas ce que "le langage de l'amour" que vous parlez. J'ai posé la question depuis le début. Savez-vous comment parler anglais ou pas? Est-ce un oui ou un non? Si vous comprenez ce que j'essaie de dire, vous savez ce que je veux dire bien sûr. (I do not know what "the language of love" that you are talking about. I asked the question since the beginning. Do you know how to speak English or not? Is this a yes or a no? If you understand what I am trying to say, you know what I mean of course.)" said Arthur impatiently and irritated at the same time. Arthur knows different languages by reading and learning lots of good books in the library. He thought that by learning different languages, he can understand what they were saying; even French.
"Je suis désolé d'être grossier et ignorant vos questions. Et oui, I know ho to speak Spadian; Even though you've different accent compare to Spadian.
( I am sorry to be rude and ignoring your questions. And yes,)" apologized Francis. Arthur wanted to abolish that person. Since he apologize, he wouldn't do.
"Apology accepted. And do you know where Am I? Honestly speaking, I'm lost." asked Arthur in embarrassment.
"Ah, now that you mention it, me too. If you don't mind, you forgot to introduce yourself since I introduce mine." reminded Francis. Even though he was amused by watching him being embarrass, Francis never felt the same as Arthur.
"Sorry for being rude, not introducing myself. My name is Arthur Kirkland, nice to meet you." introduced Arthur. Arthur grabbed Francis' left hand and shook his hand immediately. When Arthur's hand stop shaking him, he let him go.
"Is that one of your culture in Spade?" asked Francis curiously, looking where Arthur shake his hand. For a second there, Francis thought his heart skip a beat when he touched his hand. When he lets go, the skipping of his heart suddenly vanished. Is this his imagination?
"Spade? What are you talking about? I know Spade is one of the card in deck though." said Arthur in confusion, spilling what he knows. Francis looked at Arthur with a frown.
"Then, can you tell me where you're from?" asked Francis seriously. By looking at him seriously, Arthur has no choice but to tell him the truth because maybe he can tell him his way home.
Arthur felt exhausted because of the strange event occurred in his life wanted to go back home and have a nice cup of tea and relax while reading a good book. But, he will tell him some conditions to follow and tell him about his full information, if he accept, that is.
"Do you supposed to believe me for what I say? Do you promise me not to laugh? Do you promise me to keep it a secret? Can you promise me to tell me about your knowledge in this world? Do you promise me that I'll ask questions and you answer them all in honestly? Do you promise not to lie at me? If you accept this all of conditions, then I'll tell you. If you don't, I'll belt up and never tell you." said Arthur seriously, but calmly at the same time. Francis nodded without hesitation. He didn't know why Arthur told him 'in this world,' but he will find out soon enough if he accept. And lastly, he didn't know what 'belt up' means, and he guessed that it was 'Shut up'.
"Oui, I'll try my best to tell you my knowledge, mon ami (My friend)" answered Francis seriously while looking at Arthur's green eyes. When Arthur looked at Francis' blue eyes, he found truthfulness and something mixed with it.; He didn't know what it is, and Arthur knows it was positive emotion because of his bright eyes. But anyway, he ignored that and sighed in relief, knowing that he believes him. He looked away to avoid his eyes. He knows that he was stressed out. But, he was irritated by saying, 'My friend' part, but he will let it slip for today. Arthur, once again, looked at Francis, still avoiding his eyes nervously, but he only looked at his face calmly, not showing his nervousness but only in the inside. Francis noticed that action, but he never minds. Francis continued to looked at Arthur's beautiful emerald eyes, and he knows something sparks within him. He sometimes wonder what it is, but he continues to listen Arthur's explanation.
"You see, I'm from a different world. I was sucked by the book when I finished reading it. By telling me that you think I'm from "Spade", fortunately, not. I'm guessing that I'm inside the novel or so I called it 'Your World.' For unknown reason, when I finished reading the novel, I don't quite remember what the story is all about. But anyway if you don't mind, can you tell me about your world? I also wondering why you're surprised that I can speak French. Is it Ancient?" Informed and asked Arthur in curiosity. When Arthur saw Francis nodding seriously and understanding. He was glad for not laughing at him.
You see, inside the Kirkland's household a few years ago, everyone will never looked at him seriously because he truly saw magical creatures. At first when he was kid and a toddler, they told him how adorable he was, imagining things in his own, except his mean brothers. When he became a teenager, they just laughed at him and his mother told him stop being childish. For short, they never believe him and they're saying rude or mean things to him and his magical friends, especially his brothers. But until now, he still believed the magical creatures. Truthfully speaking, they were friendly in his world. In this world, they looked afraid and some of them are still friendly. That's why his only friends were the mythical creatures and not humans. Even though he was a human too.
"I see...I believe you...For answering your first question, yes, you can tell me about your questions and I'll answer you all the knowledge I know about this world as promise to your one of your conditions. But, I must warn you, I've limited knowledge and I tried my best to fulfill it." reminded Francis seriously while looking at Arthur. Arthur finally looked at Francis' eyes and nodded in understanding. He saw how serious he was, and he was glad that someone will look at him seriously.
"And for your last question, I don't know about what the "French" you're talking about, and yes, it was ancient and my people rarely understand it." said Francis sadly. Arthur wanted to comfort him, but he don't know how to. Suddenly, he realized something.
'My people? maybe he was a king?" inquired Arthur inside his mind in confusion. When he wanted to ask something, someone shouted Francis name.
To Arthur, it sounds unfamiliar; To Francis, yes, it sounds really familiar and that person sounds really angry at him.
"Milord" groaned Francis. Arthur looked at him curiously. When Arthur noticed a dark silhouette running behind Francis, the view was clear when it comes closer. He saw a short young man with choppy blond hair in a chin-length bob cut and dark flatly-colored mint-green eyes, and he carries a rifle. The unfamiliar person was glaring at Francis angrily while he was running, and he looks like he wanted to shot Francis with his rifle. He prays for his safety to live but amused at the same time.
The short young man wore strange clothes...and the color of the clothes were too bright and easily found. He wore an orange beret with yellow rose attached to it on the side, behind the yellow rose looks like orange leaves on each side.
He wore many layers of clothing; the first layer was long-sleeve yellow-orange shirt, which the sleeves were rolled up with single orange diamond each side, the second was a fancy looking white T-shirt, which is rolled up sleeves with laces and tiny orange diamonds adored by it, and lastly, the third has open yellow-orange waistcoat with big orange bow trying near his neck and the waistcoat has a pockets in each side. He also wore brown leather gloves, short brown leather boots with a single orange diamond each side, and peach baggy pants, which is comfortable, and also he wore a diamond necklace
Francis slowly turned around with a weak smile while looking at him. When the both of them were face to face, the short young man glared at him. By the looks of it, he doesn't look tired by running.
"Your majesty, why did you run away from me? If you don't come back to your castle now, your people will notice you that you're gone! Do you know how much chaos will occur!? Your stupid reason is unacceptable! Come with me. If you wont come, i'll shot you with tranquilizer and drag you away." threaten Vash. Francis gulped and raised his hands in surrender.
"Calm down, mon ami. You see, I'm quite busy talking to my new friend" reason Francis. Francis step aside and looked at Arthur.
"Arthur, meet Vash Zwingli," introduced Francis, and then he looked at Vash.
"Vash, meet Arthur Kirkland." continued Francis, and then he looked at Arthur. Arthur looked at Vash and reached his hand with a polite smile.
"Pleasure to meet you." said Arthur. Vash looked at Arthur curiously, approached the young Brit, and then he shook Arthur's hand.
"Likewise." said Vash while he nodded. The two of them stop shaking hands, and Vash walked toward the King and stay beside him. Francis clapped his hands once to give him attention. The two of them looked at him curiously.
"Arthur, I know you've lots of questions to ask me. I'll tell you what I really am and re-introduce myself. Bonjour, I am Francis Bonnefoy, King of Diamond, and sexy moi" introduced Francis as he snapped his fingers on his right side until he summon his yellow petals in the air, falling slowly while he bowed elegantly, looking at Arthur, and he winked at him. Arthur pacepalm, and he wanted to puke.
"I officially call you frog." declared Arthur in deadpan voice. Francis looked at him with his dramatic hurtful look when he stood up straight and stop bowing at him. Francis was glad nothing change between him and Arthur when he found out he was a king. Francis walked toward the Englishman, and he was beside him.
"Vous avez brisé mon coeur en petits morceaux, Arthur. (You've broken my heart into small pieces, Arthur.)" said Francis, pretending he was hurt by touching where his heart beat as a gesture. Arthur's thick eyebrow twitched in annoyance.
"I wont speak your bloody language." said Arthur in annoyance.
"S'il vous plaît? Parler le langage de l'amour? Vous le savez, votre accent est sexy comme la mienne. (Please? Speak the language of love? You know, your accent is sexy like mine.)" flirted Francis, and then he winked at him. Arthur only looked at him in annoyance, plus he was almost flattered by what he said. Almost.
Vash PoV~
When I saw the two of them interacting each other, they seems to get along very well. I don't know what the king is saying, but I know Arthur can understand him. I wonder who really is he? I feel a tremendous source of magic coming towards him, and that's I came here in curiosity. Luckily, when I came here, I found my King.
My King wore plain brown pants with dirt adored by it, plain white shirt with also dirt on it, and...he wore barefoot. I wonder why he was barefoot. When I looked at Arthur, he wore brown trousers, buttoned green vest, underneath the vest is rolled up long-sleeve white shirt, and he was barefoot, like my king.
Vash PoV ended~
"Ah, Arthur, voulez-vous rester dans mon château ? Je sais que vous êtes sans-abri et que vous n'avez pas un seul l'argent dans ce monde. Je sais qu'elle était différente de la nôtre. Soins à se joindre à moi séjournant dans mon château ? Son pour libre, bien sûr. Vous êtes mon cher ami, je vais donc vous aider autant que je peux. (Ah, Arthur, do you want to stay in my castle? I know that you are homeless and that you do not have a single money in this world. I know that it was different from our own. Care to join me staying in my castle? It's for free, of course. You are my dear friend, so I will help you as much as i can.)" said Francis seriously while looking at Arthur's eyes. Arthur thought deeply about Francis' offer. Since Francis was correct that he doesn't have a necessary needs in this world and also money, so he didn't have a choice.
"Oui, je le ferai. Merci beaucoup de votre gentillesse. Comme vous le savez, je ne peux que parler cette langue parce que je tiens à garder le secret. Je pense que votre serviteur nécessaire pour se détendre plus. (Yes, I will. Thank you very much for your kindness. As you know, I can only speak this language because I want to keep the secret. I think that your servant needed to relax more.)" said Arthur without hesitation while taking a glanced at Vash. When Vash noticed him, he was confused about their change of language and raised his left brow questionably. Francis snickers loudly, and Vash glared at him, and then Francis shut up while he whistle innocently.
"Sorry to be rude, i'll translated it for you awhile ago for what we say earlier. The frog offered me to live in castle, and I accepted. I don't know how many days I will live though. I thanked his kindness, of course." informed Arthur while looking at Vash. Vash nodded and say, "Thank you for translating it."
"You're welcome." replied Arthur.
"Okay~ Let's go to my castle now, I've lots of work to do, but first I need to walk Arthur around in the castle to familiarize." said Francis about his plan. Vash only sighed and nodded in agreement, at least his King is inside the castle doing that, not outside.
"Vous vouliez juste un fossé votre paperasse. (You just wanted to ditch your paperwork.)" mumbled Arthur. Francis heard him elbow him with a grin.
"Je pense que vous avez dit que vous ne verrez que parler français, si elle est importante. (I thought you said that you'll only speak French, if it is important.)" teased Francis. Arthur's face turns a thousandth shade of red filled with embarrassment mixed with anger.
"Sh-Shut up!" mumbled Arthur. Before the two started to argue more, the two were startled because someone shot the gun. Both of them looked and saw Vash, looking at them irritably. His rifle was pointed up while smoke was coming out by the tip of his gun.
"Let's go. Time is wasting. If you all stop moving, I'll shot you with my gun." threaten Vash. His patient was running out because he can't understand what they were saying, and he was frustrated.
"Don't worry, his bullet were rubber." whispered Francis in comfort while he whisper to Arthur.
"START MOVING!" yelled Vash. At that, Francis took the lead, Arthur was in the middle, and Vash was behind Arthur's.
With that, they journeyed to The Kingdom Of Diamond.
