(I want to thank dr-innocentchil on Deviantart for letting me use her character prince Marco for this.)
"You're a vampire?" She asked backing away. "Don't worry. I won't bite you unless I smell blood." He said. She calmed down. "You're pretty lucky to be prince of the kingdom." He sighed. "I am. But mostly, I want to get away from it." He said. "Why?" She asked. "Because, mother wants all her children to be proper, and elegant. And I get annoyied with it." He explained. "Oh, I'm sorry." She apoligized. "Here, I want to show you something." He said. He held out his hand and Chiro took his hand. "Hold on." He put her on his back and jumped from the balcony. He forced his wings out his back and they started flying into the dark forest.
"Where are we going?" She asked. He stayed quiet until they landed into a tree. "Where are we?" She asked again. "This is the same tree I always go when I'm down or upset." She looked around and saw the view of the entile glooming forest around her. She saw the pallest and thought. "We should be heading back." She said pointing. "We just got here." He jumped down from the tree with Chiro holding on. Marco grabbed a blue rose in full bloom and handed it to Chiro. "Here, a rose for you." He said. "Oh thank you." She said taking the flower. Marco looked away and picked another flower. Chiro saw him in a sitting on his knees and he planted the flower onto the ground. Marco looked up at the tree where he placed the flower and saw a carving of a man with a crown.
"Who's this?" She asked. "This is my father. King Blodis." He answered looking at the carving. "He died protecting me from the plant when I was young." He said dropping a tear on the replanted flower. "I'm sorry." She put a hand on his shoulder. "It's ok. I'm kinda over it now." He said. His ears picked up a sound. "What's wrong?" She asked as she saw him in a battle ready stance. "Don't look now. But something's coming." He looked towards the direction the sound was coming from.
A flock of black bats flew out and startled the teens. Marco looked up. "It's midnight." He said. "We should start heading back." He said taking Chiro's hand again. Chiro blushed. "We should." They walked back together hand in hand. Antauri was looking around for Chiro hoping he could dance with her. He looked around again and saw the team enjoying the ball. "What's wrong Antauri?" Nova asked. "Nothing Nova." He said searching for Chiro. "Have you seen Chiro anywhere?" She looked around and shooked her head. "Now that you mention it I haven't seen her for hours." She said. "Do you want me to gather the team so we find her?" She asked. Antauri looked and saw that Otto was eating the buffet, Gibson talking with a few doctors, and Sprx talkiing to multipul women surrounding him. "No. I'll find her on my own." He said leaving Nova.
"That was fun Marco." She said stepping back onto the balcony along with Marco. "It was my pleasure." He helped Chiro down from the step. They heard music coming from inside and it was another slow song. "Care to dance Marco? I mean your majesty." She said curtsying. He giggled and took her hand. "I would love to." He took her hand and began dancing with her again. Chiro was secretly blushing by him dancing under the moonlight. Antauri looked out and saw Chiro slow dancing. He was ready to go outside and brea it up but realized she was having a good time so he decided to let her have her fun.
Once the ball was over the team was leaving to the robot. Chiro was walking away from Marco. "This was the most fun I have ever had with anyone. I hope we can do it again." He said. "I wish the same thing Marco." She said. "I gotta leave. Goodbye." Marco smiled. "Goodbye." He waved back. Chiro turned around and caught up with her team.
