Here it is! Part one, act two of my story! I said I was going to get this story up by this weekend and I did! *fistbumps the air* This makes me so happy! I hope you guys like this one! I worked really hard on it. Anyways! I like to say that I posted three chapters this weekend. Arthur, which I'm almost done with. It hust needs one more chapter and it'll be done. The other is a new story requested by FeralG3 called Lifelines. Which is an Oc/Diana story that parallels with this one somewhat. The first chapter has a lot of spoilers for this story, so if you want to see what I have plan for this...*shrugs* So go check those out if you haven't already and please don't be afraid of leaving a review. I just love to hear from you all! (And it helps get me pump for the next chapter.) Also, yes I am taking requests but please note that I have to major stories, Lifeline and this one. So I won't be able to post it up on the same day as these two at the sametime. But I would love to hear them anyways!

Anyways...on with the story.

Chapter 11: The Invitation

"Yetta?"

"No."

"Yera?"

"No."

"Yenda?"

"Oh, for the love of god! No King, no! Stop trying to guess Echo's name!"

"Shut up Alicia!"

Hello everyone, it's me ya girl Echo Stalker. Back with another whirlwind adventure with my two friends King and Alicia! It's been two years since we left Merlin's place to continue our journey to find the rest of the Seven Deadly Sins.

So far...no luck.

But that's alright! The country is quite big, so we still have time.

I flinched as I was hit in the back of the head with something. I took a deep breath and turned around to see Chastiefol's pillow form at my feet. Then I looked up to see King and Alicia wrestling against each other. Again... I sighed before grabbing the green pillow and walked away from the two. It's been like this for a while now, since we have yet to run into any Holy knight. I guess we scared them off when we fought with Vivian a year ago. (Is it a year ago? Since this is our third year of travel.) With all that pent-up energy, King and Alicia turn anything into an excuse to train.

Like the time we decided to start traveling again at the end of winter and King started a snowball fight.

Or the time Alicia pushed King into the river on his birthday, April first.

Or the time they thought it would be funny to start a prank war on Alicia's birthday, January ninth, and end up getting tree sap in my hair. (They learn to truly fear me that day)

Or the time when the first day of Spring started and we caught King with his pants down during Fairy Mating Season.

Actually...Let's not talk about that...

I let out another sigh as I press the big pillow to my face. Remembering it causes my body to act funny and my face to burn.

"Hey Echo! Wait up!" King yelped as Alicia pushed him on the ground and ran after me. "Damnit Alicia!"

"Hey why did you leave us behind?" Alicia asked with a pout, placing her hands behind her head without a care. She then squints her green eyes at me and grin devilishly. "Mah! What's this? Are you blushing? Is someone thinking about a certain accident?"

I stuttered, looking at her wide eyed. "Alicia!"

She just smirks at me. "You were, weren't you! How naughty!"

"Alicia! Shut up!"

Alicia, our blonde and green-eyed weapon expert. She was fifteen when we first met her. Living in a village that was slowly dying because of a Soul Eating Witch name Ronda. She had a sister...but her sister is gone now because of that witch. May Ella rest in peace. Alicia also was a big help in taking that monster down! Now she's a seventeen-year-old girl that stands tall, about five feet eight. She also trains King and I in hand to hand combat. She says that magic isn't everything, even though King disagrees. She also like to tease me about me walking in on King's alone time every chance she gets.

How was I supposed to know that fairies have Mating Seasons?

Anyways!

She was wearing a cream color, cotton turtle neck sweater that had large silver buttons running down from her collarbone to where her bellybutton was. It was sleeveless and reveled the light pink long sleeve shirt underneath. She also had a beige color skirt that went slightly below her knees. On her feet were black, ankle high boots with two-inch heels. Her long blonde hair was pulled up into a high ponytail that spiked out, her bangs falling down to her eyebrows and cupped around her cheeks.

"Alicia! Leave her alone!" King snapped as he pushed her to the side so he could walk between us. He then placed his elbow on my head like an arm rest, ignoring my eye twitch. "And stop bringing that up. You know it's embarrassing."

Alicia gave him a wicked smirk. "Why do you think I do it?"

King snapped his teeth at her. "Well stop it."

King Harlequin, our orange-brown haired and amber-brown eyed fairy magic user. He is the oldest of us all and the leader of this small group. I met him when I woke up at the Castle of Liones with no memory of how I got there. He's been really kind to me throughout the journey, even though he makes me want to ripe my hair out sometimes! He's about a thousand, two hundred and ninety-two years old that stands tall, about five feet three. He's trying to teach me how to levitate so I can fly as well as make the usage of my barriers stronger. King also tends to get into fights with Alicia about what is better in a fight. Magic or non-magic usage.

He was wearing a sleeveless forest green color shirt. On top of that he wore a yellow open jacket with its collar sticking up. Thankfully it wasn't a bright blinding yellow but a softer color. Well not softer but less likely to make someone wince. It was more of a bumblebee yellow that made you want to run your fingers and face through it. It's quite warm too! He wore black shorts that went up to his calves, almost hiding his bear tattoo. On his feet were blues and yellow shoes with two big silver buttons. King also let his hair grow out a bit, a slightly bit pass his ears. It was kinda cute how it spiked out at the top, almost like permeant bedhead.

I glanced at him quickly at the corner of my eyes. His cheeks pink as he smirked down at me.

He also causes me to feel weird in the pits of my stomach...

Almost as if I have a-Nope! Not going in that direction!

I shook my head to get rid of the not need thought and to get King's arm off me. I sent him a frown which he replied with a sheepish grin. I just rolled my eyes with a smile. Alicia snickered which brought King back into an argument with her.

So, this is my life.

I love it, ya know!

And nothing was ever going to change.

Oh at least that's what I thought...

"Are sure we're going the right way?" King asked Alicia as he crossed his arms.

"Of course, I'm sure." Alicia stated as she glared down at the piece of paper in her hands. "The farmer said that the strange disturbance started at the north side of the barn."

"Well the barn's here but I see nothing." King gesturing around us with a deadpan look on his face.

I bit my lip and looked around. We ran into a nervous and terrified farmer this morning, that was ranting about strange things happening around his barn. For the pass three day, the doors to the barn keep opening and closing by themselves. Animals going missing only to reappear to the north of the barn on top of the wooden cart that lay there. He also said that his crops were being stolen! When we heard this Alicia asked our orange-brown hair leader to stay so we can help. King, having a soft spot for animals, agreed immediately. The old farmer was relief at our offer of help and quickly sketched us a drawing of what he saw last night that give him a fright.

So here we are, trying to find the answer of the strange happenings in this farm. For being a bright, warm day, I could feel goose bumps covering my arms and legs. Is it me or does it feel like we're being watch? I jumped and threw myself at King's side when I heard the grass rustle behind me. King looked down at me with a raised thin eyebrow. I just shrug as I gave him an awkward, sheepish grin. He just sighed, shaking his head and rolled his eyes at me. I pouted at him and looked down sadly. Was I being annoying? Then I felt him pull his arm away and wrapped it around me tightly. I sigh softly in relief. Maybe I'm not that annoying...

"I think we should split up." King said after a few minutes of waiting for Alicia to figure out what the farmer had drawn on the paper.

"Split up?" I squeaked out shooting him a wide-eyed look.

"Yes Echo." King said pulling away. He looked around again with a huff. "We can cover more ground that way."

"But King!" I said feeling the paranoia creep up on me.

"No Echo, we're splitting."

"That's crazy talk! We should stay together."

"Echo, we're splitting up."

"But Harlequin!"

King looked down at me with this look in his eyes. He stood completely straight, arms cross and legs slightly apart. "We're splitting up Echo and that's final. Now go check the inside of the barn while Alicia check the cart and I check the surrounding area."

I stared at him with disbelief. Then I sighed angerly with a shake of my head and stiffly walked towards the barn. Didn't he remember anything from the horror movies we watched though out the years? You never split up! Who cares if it's sunny right now! The inside of the barn is slightly darker then the outside with jumpy animal and power tools. Power tools! It's like the prime spot for a murder. Oooh I'm going to hit that stupid fairy!

"Splitting up. Pinche Loco! Estupido hombre!" I hissed under my breath as I trudged my way to the large brown doors of the barn. With a shaky hand, I pulled it open. "If I die...I'm going to haunt his ass."

Taking a deep breath, I walked in with my shoulders to my ears and arms crossed. I looked around trying to make note of everything in my line of sight. Okay...just some sleepy animals. Nothing that scary. Oh look, there's a wall filled with tools. Yay. (Can you hear the sarcasm?) Hammers, saws blades, a rake, axes and...I squint my eyes. Is that spinning blades that could cut a tree trunk in half? Okay! It's time to go. I think I spend enough time in here. Thank you very much!

Then out of nowhere a large gust of wind blew pass me from behind and the door slammed closed. I let out a screech, jumping out of my skin. Okay I'm done! I'm out of here! Whirling around to face the door, I slam my hands against the door. Behind me the sleepy animals were not so sleepy anymore. They were making a loud racket as I tried to open the door. Their cries digging into my ears painfully, making me want to scream. I slammed fist into the door with a choked scream though my teeth.

"Why the fuck won't you open?" I growled ramming my shoulder against the door.

Then a high pitch giggle filled cut through the loud animal sounds causing the hair at the back of my neck to rise. I spun around, throwing my back to the door and searched everywhere for the giggle. Nothing was there. Nothing was there. I could feel my eyes start to burn; my ears were ringing. I gasped out, trying to breath as I heard the giggle again. The animal were getting louder now. I...I think I was having a panic attack.

"Alicia..." I gasped out shaking, my nails digging into my ears. "Harlequin..."

Everything was getting to hot! Fuck why is it so hot? I can't breathe! Someone...Why is everything getting dark?

"King! Something is going on in the barn!"

Alicia?

"Fuck! Echo! Echo! Can you hear me?!"

Harlequin?

"Harlequin! H-Harlequin!" I cried out the best as I could through the raising voices of the animals and the giggling. "Help! I-I can't breathe!"

"Get out of the way Alicia!"

"Hurry!"

"Disaster Strike!"

The doors exploded behind me causing me to go deaf for a bit. The only thing I could hear was just the ringing in my useless ears. Which was a relief. Cold air hit my burning skin as I felt myself being grabbed and pulled away from the horrid place. My face was grabbed and turned to look up at a worry Harlequin. His amber-brown eyes wide and frantic as his mouth moved quickly. I just stared at him with watery eyes unable to hear what he said. He must have notice because he gently pushed me into Alicia's arms and stormed into the barn. He looked as if he was threatening someone. For his round ears were pointed and pulled back against his head like an angry cat.

Then he turned around and marched back to us. His body was tensed up with anger it seems. Without pause, he swooped me up and carried me away. I held still in his arms trying to regain control of my lungs. My body was heavy and I was fighting to stay awake. I can't go to sleep. What if I stop breathing? What if all I can hear is the screaming of the barn animals and the giggling in my dreams? I flinched as Harlequin bowed his head so his lips touched my ear. He was saying something...but I couldn't hear. Then a soft sweet scent filled my nose. I could feel it on my dry tongue. It was calming and warm...

My eyelids were getting heavier...

"It's okay Echo...sleep."

Good idea Mr. Voice!

With that I let my head slump back as I let my heavy eyelids win.

When I woke up, it was dark outside. It seems that I slept the day away. Could I be anymore useless? I bet I could. With a groan, I sat up and looked around. I was in a bedroom that must be from the farmer's house. King and Alicia were in the corner, arguing quietly. Probably about how useless I was. Damsel in distress once again. What's the point of training if I keep getting the short stick of everything? For once I would like to be the hero that saves the day. On well, let just forget about it. Crying over spilled milk solves nothing.

With a depressed sigh, I stretched out my muscles and got out of bed. Slowly I made my way to my friends. I reached out and tugged Alicia's shirt causing her to jump in surprise. Both turn to me with wide eyes. I gave them a small shy wave, unable to talk.

"Echo you're alright!" Alicia threw her arms around me in relief. She hugged me tightly against her chest. "You don't know how worry we were."

King pried her arms away from my body before grabbing my shoulders with his long piano fingers. His thumps rubbing gently against the joints. His amber-brown eyes searching into my own brown ones. I let out as sigh and leaned forward until my head was pressed against his collarbone. His hands slid back with my movement, one going down my back and around my waist. The other towards my hair, where he ran his fingers through my shoulder length, wavy, brown hair. We stood like that in silence until King pulled away.

"Are you alright?" King asked softly.

I gave him a shrug, raised my hand and moved it side to side. As if to say, 'So n' So.' Then I move my fingers to speak for me. I kept my hand in front of King's face so he could not miss a letter.

W-H-A-T H-A-P-P-E-N

Alicia peered over his shoulder to look at my hand. "What's she saying?"

"She's asking what happened." The fairy answered without looking away from my hand. "You had a panic attack Echo. Something happened in that barn that must have trigger your asthma."

I grimace, using my spelling hand to touch my chest and feel my breathing. Well that sucks. I'm so going to kill that little giggling thing. I glanced outside and leaned closer to the taller male. Maybe when there was light outside. Yeah...light is good.

"Can you tell us what happen in there?" Alicia asked getting my attention.

I gave her a look and pointed at my neck. Which happens to be sore and not really working with the vocals. Alicia let out a nervous laugh as she rubbed the back of her neck. She tends to forget that I get mute once in a while. After all, with how loud she and King get with their argument I tend not to talk all that much. It's okay though, I'm not much of a talker. I fine with that. King just shook his head with a small smirk on his thin, pale lips. Not that I was looking at his lips. They were just right there in front of me.

King sent Alicia to get me some water as he led me back to the bed, I was using earlier. He placed Chastiefol against the wall and had me scoot back until my back was resting on it. Then he grabbed the blanket and wrapped it around me. He slowly got off the bed before I snatched his wrist. I looked at his surprised face then to the spot next to me and back to his face again, pleading. With a huff of laughter, he crawled into the blanket I was using and cuddled against me. Feeling more relax then earlier, I buried my face in his neck and placed one hand over his heart.

"King..." I mouthed against his pale neck.

He said nothing as he rubbed my arm, his head resting against mine. Did you know that fairies' hearts beat faster than humans? It's quite fascinating. I asked him once when we were lying under the stars why that was. All he did was shrug and asked to hear mine. Apparently, he had never thought that humans and fairies' body were different. Since we all look the same, well except for the wings and bird like bones fairies had so they can fly. Don't let that fool you though, King has gotten very strong since his training with Alicia.

"Look at this." Alicia teased as she came walking in with a cup of water. She hands the cup to me before plopping herself on the other side. "I leave for just a few seconds and the lovebirds are at it again."

"W-we're not love birds!" King stuttered as I choked on the water.

"Yeah, yeah." The blonde continued as she patted my back. "That's what you're always saying."

"Stop it." I mumbled not looking at either of them.

"Oh! Echo's talking!" I felt Alicia scratched my head. I closed open eye and leaned into her fingers. King huffed and released me so he could cross his arms. "Oh, hush you green eye bear. Anyways, can you tell us what happen in the barn four eyes?"

I touched around my eyes to find my glasses missing but before I could panic again, King grabbed them from the small dresser next to the bed. I took them gratefully from his hand and put them on. A bit dirty but I could see through them with no problem. Then I slump back again the green pillow and closed my eyes.

"Nothing really happened..." I started out slowly. I felt someone grab my right hand and rub the back of it. "Just glanced around, freaked out when I saw some barn tools..."

A shiver went down my back.

"Echo?" King asked gently.

I opened my eyes to look at the ceiling. "Next thing I know...a huge gust of wind came out of nowhere and slammed the door shut. I screamed. Woke up the animals...ugh..."

Alicia rubbed my shoulder.

"The door wouldn't open. The creatures were getting louder and louder. And...and then...there was this giggle!" I jerked forward, eyes wide and hands cupping the air as if I was holding a ball in front of my face. I quickly looked from King to Alicia with my hands shaking. "A giggle! It wouldn't shut up!"

We sat in silences as I tried to calm my breathing.

Then the windows started rattling causing us to jump with a scream. Together we turn to look out the window behind us. The sight of the barn doors slamming open and shut had us racing out of the bed. I skid to a stop before returning to the room and getting my shoes. I was not going out there bared footed, only to step on shit or something. After struggling to get my shoes on, I pulled my hairband off my wrist and gave myself a low ponytail.

Outside was chaotic. Animals running amuck, yelling at the top of their lungs. I duck with my arms crossed over my head as block of hay flew over me. King ran towards the skittish animals, clicking his tongue to get their attention. Alicia ran to the barn, pulling out her sword from where it rests on her hip. I followed close behind using my magic to create a barrier for any flying debris. I let out a squeal when an axe slammed into it and got stuck. Oh shit! Something was going to kill us! Alicia and I shared a wary look before trudging forward.

Once we entered the building, we stood back to back. Her sword gripped firmly in front of her, elbows slightly bend near her body. I held out my arms, elbows bend slightly so my white glowing hands could be close to my chest with small white see-through circles in front of them. Giggling filled the air, cutting through the slamming of doors and animals sounds.

"So...I guess we're on our own?" Alicia muttered to me as we slowly walked in a circle.

"Eh, just for a bit." I shrugged, fingers twitching.

A wall from the left of me made a smacking noise causing me to jump and throw one of my barriers. It sped across the floor before going through the barn wall.

"Nice going Echo." Alicia mocked.

"Oh, I'm sorry. Would you like to try next?"

"Tch."

The giggle came from in front of the blonde. She sliced the air hitting nothing. The giggle got louder. Alicia let out an angry grunt as she sliced the air again. Next thing we know. She was knocked off her feet and onto her back with a loud thump. I called out her name in surprise. Then something slammed into my shoulder causing me to join her on the ground.

"Ouchie." I muttered trying to get up.

My green-eyed friend growled getting up on her feet. "That thing is end when I get my hands on it-YAK!"

She was thrown back a foot away from me by a strong gust of air. I raced after her only to get my feet pulled out from under me. I was dragged almost zig-zag across the floor before being pulled up into the air by my foot and thrown out through the hole in the wall. I crossed my arms in front of my face when I hit the ground with a bounce and roll. A wince escaped me as pain burst through my back and shoulder. I could hear Alicia cry out my name in fear. Fuck, am I going to feel that tomorrow.

I slowly sat up without trying to harm myself even farther. Taking a deep breath, I ran back and jumped back through the hole. I quickly dodged a barrel that few at me and try to make my way to my tall blond friend. Who was slicing away at anything that came at her. A glint of light flash in my eye causing me to turn my head and gasp. A handful of axes hurling at her from behind.

"White Barrier!" I yelled throwing my hands out in the air as if I was throwing confetti.

The blonde Japanese teen spun half way with wide green eyes and choked at the sight of sharp objects frozen in front of her. Our eyes met and she gave me a nod of thanks. I gave her a weak wave then sent the axes back from where they came from. Then out of nowhere a large wooden lid smacked me in the face causing me to fall back in pain again.

"Motherfucking bullshit!" I yelled in anger.

"You okay there, shorty?" Alicia called out panting.

I picked up the lid, grinding my teeth. "What do you think?"

She opened her mouth to reply only to get her feet pulled from under her. She let out a yelp as her body slid down deeper into the dark side of the barn. I let out a snarl and ran after her. Whatever was messing with us was seriously pissing me off. I pushed my legs to go faster, feeling my magic burning with in me. As I skid to a stop next to Alicia's legs and use the momentive to swing the lid in my hands forward.

Thunk

The lid shattered as the air became disruptive. We watched, jaws dropped, as whatever was attacking us went flying into the wall. I shared a look with my friend before walking over to see what it was. I squint my eyes as I slowly got closer. It was a boy? A dark tan boy with pointy ears and protruding eye shape. His black hair was spiked up as if he put his finger in a light socket. He also wore a dirt brown jumpsuit that had a red knee patch. He also had a deep scar from the corner of his left eye to his upper neck. The biggest thing that caught my eyes was the moth wings on his back. A fairy? I looked around the floor for something to poke him. I wasn't going to get close to him with how big of a threat he was.

Grabbing a broken pole of a rake that was under my foot, I reached out and poked him in the chest. Once, twice. The third time his eyes snapped open to revel large manic charcoal grey eyes. He smacked the pole away and flew at me. His hand stretched out for my neck; fingers curved like claws. I let out scream.

"Bumblebee!"

A Chastiefol cover in bright yellow electricity came in between us. I fell back on my butt with a yelp as I watch Chastiefol turn onto the attacker. Watched as it split into multiple kunai and swarm the boy. Just like a swarm of bees. The spiky haired boy cried out as he tried to shield himself.

"Cutting it a little close, huh King?" Alicia panted from behind me.

I turned my upper torso to see a pissed off Fairy King flying in. I winced at the sight of him as he landed right next to me. He had chicken feathers all over his body. Dirt smeared cross the bridge of his nose, chin, the right side of his neck and arms. He also had what seems to be mud on his clothes and hair. As well as bright red, tiny scratches.

"Are you okay?" I asked him.

"Just peachy." He grunts as he stormed over the boy.

He roughly grabbed the other by the collar of their shirt and held him up in the air. A loud buzzing filled the air. The boy picked up his head and gave King a creepy smile. Like Joker level creepy smile but with sharp teeth.

"Why if it isn't little Harlequin." Wow his voice even sound like the high pitch version of Joker from the Warner Brother's Justice League cartoon. That's...that's creepy. King slammed him against the wall causing the boy to cough. "Hey now. Take it easy."

"What are you doing here Puck?" King snarled tightening his grip.

Wait, that's Puck? As in Puck the servant of Oberon in Shakespeare's play?

"Now, now! What's with the frowning fa-" He was cut off when our orange-brown haired friend hit him against the wall again. Puck gasped out, clawing at King's hand. "Alright! Alright! I'll talk! I'll talk!"

"Then talk."

"King." I scold softly. I rose to my feet and went to grab his arm. He looked down at me with the look of frustration. Black was bleeding into his bright amber-brown eyes. I slid my hand down his arm to his wrist and gently rubbed it with my thumb. "King...let go."

"Yes, yes! Do as the pretty little girl says!" Puck wheezed out patting King's hand and pointing at me.

King bared his own sharp teeth at the other. Alicia muttered something, probably something brutal, but I ignored in favor of keeping my eyes on King's face. I used my other hand to touch his chin with the tips of my fingers and gently turned his head towards me. His eyes slowly ripped themselves away from the charcoal grey eyed male to look at me. I mouth his name, pleading, as I held his gaze. The fairy shut his eyes tightly and grind his teeth in anger before letting go. Puck fell to his knees coughing and rubbing his neck. I felt bad at the sight of him that I went to help him but King gripped my arm and pulled me away.

He took a few steps away from the other male, dragging me along. Then he held me close to him, my back pressing against his chest, as he glared daggers at Puck. Alicia took her spot on his right side as his second in command. She had her sword pointing down at him with the same look on her face as King. Once Puck cleared his throat, he sat down on the floor with his legs crisscrossed and held his hands up in surrender. Alicia just scoffed at him, not daring to remove her weapon.

"Talk Puck." King snapped.

"Talk about what dear Harlequin?" Puck asked coyishly.

I could feel the rumble of King's growl against my back.

"Why are you attacking this farm?" Alicia asked coldly.

Puck leaned back slightly, hands up in a shrug and tilt his head. "Tis a little prank."

"You could have hurt someone." I mumbled lowly shrinking into my male friend.

I couldn't help but think of my panic attack from earlier. Puck shrink back with a wince. He rubbed the back of his neck with a guilty look on his face. Then he shrugged and grinned up at us. Alicia and King snarled at him causing me to flinch. Alicia sent me a quick look before stepping closer to the other fairy. The tip of her sword barely touching his neck. The black-haired male yelp as he scrambled backwards.

"Guys stop it." I snapped trying to take a step forward only to get jerked back. "King!"

"Look Puck, you attacked my friends." King hissed ignoring me. I tilted my head to glare at him. "Give me one good reason why I shouldn't send you back to the Faeries in pieces. Cause what you did was no joke."

"A little touchy, aren't you?" Puck asked leaning away from the sword. His eyes looked at us with glowing mischief. "You use to love these kinds of jokes! Played some yourself when you were younger."

I blink back in surprise and struggle to turn in King's arms to look at him. What did he mean by that? Did King...did King play an awful prank like this as a child? I don't think I could imagine that. I reached out to touch his jaw with my pointer finger. My amber-brown eyed friend refused to look at me. I felt myself wilt a little and slowly remove my finger to my chest.

"Puck." King warned darkly.

"I just wanted a little fun is all."

"Then stay in your area of the forest for that." Alicia snapped.

Puck sent her a glare. I bit my lip then ripped myself away from the Fairy King and walk up to the other fairy. I read once that fairies or faeries like to get revenge on those who angers them. I didn't want that happening to my blonde friend. I tapped Alicia's sword once before kneeling in front of the winged fairy. He looked at me warily, raising a thin black eyebrow. I could hear the others hiss my name. My eyes stayed on his as I bowed my head.

"Please don't be angry with her. She's just scared." I reached out and lightly touched his hand. He looked at me curiously. "Your prank really hurt us. Joke aren't funny when they hurt people...now are they?"

Puck slummed as he looked down at the ground shamefully. "I guess your right pretty little girl."

I felt my face burn at the complement as King hissed angerly. I pressed my fist against my lips as I looked away in embarrassment. Awe, he thinks I'm pretty. I felt the back of my outfit get yanked back. I let out an oof as I was swept up back into King's arms. I felt his arms tighten around my diaphragm making me feel like a stuff toy. I struggle to get my footing but couldn't in the position I was in. An annoyed huff escaped my nose.

Puck snickered before jumping into the air. "Since I hurt pretty little girl and her friends! How about I apologies with this?"

He snapped his fingers and a golden light exploded from them. I flinched and turned my head away from the bright light. Blinking the dark spots away from my eyes, I looked back when the golden light died down. Alicia let out a curse in her native language as she let her sword stance dropped slightly. I could feel King rub his face against my hair. Once it seemed like we all got barings, I squint up at Puck. He was snickering into one open hand as he held up a floating letter in the other.

"As an apology, I will give you an invitation to the Coronation of soon to be Queen Titania of the Summer Faeries." He said as he flicked the letter to us. I reached out in awe only for King to snatch it out of the air first. I slumped against his arm with a pout. "It's quite an honor to get one you know."

"An honor...right." King mumbled as I watched him turn the letter back and forth. "Titania, huh?"

Something like dread filled my stomach. I did not like the way he said her name. Alicia walked over to us to peer down at the letter in our fairy's hand.

"Right you are!" Puck smirked before flying higher in the air. He whirled in the air before giving us a wink and wave. Then he took off into the night. "I'll give your regards to the future Queen! She'll just love to see you all! Especially you, Harlequin!"

L-love?

Turned in the pits of my stomach. King said nothing as he frowns at the letter in his hand. Why would this Titania love to see King? Why isn't King saying anything?! Say something damnit! Yet nothing came out of his mouth. With a huff I ripped myself away from King once again. Both of my friends stared at me in surprise. King mumbled my name but I flat out ignored him. I cracked my neck feeling annoyed before storming off on them. Who the hell was this Titania? Why the fuck would she love to see King?! Huh? Huh?! I'll kick her motherfucking ass! Pinche pendeja chinga tu pinche madre!

Man! Why am I angry all of the sudden?

I shook my head with a growl. What the fuck ever. I don't care. King can get friendly with anyone he wants. It's not my problem! If that bruja wants to get all "buddy-buddy" with a Queen then all the power to him! I'm not angry. I just don't care!

With another growl, I rubbed my hands against my head roughly. Then froze. M-my glasses! I don't have my glasses! Shit, what the fuck? Did I lose them? I spun around in slight panic. Where did they go?! I'm going to be blind!

"Echo? Are you okay?" Alicia asked from behind me.

"My glasses! I can't find my glasses!" I cried out worried.

"Oh, do you mean these?"

I spun around to see King holding up my lost black glasses. I let out a sigh of relief as I jogged back to them. The light skinned male chuckled as he placed them on me. I scrunched up my nose as he pushed them up my face with one finger. (He mentioned something about seeing a pig running away with them on its face. I wasn't really paying attention to his voice.) I felt my face burn as he smirked at me. I turned my head with a huff, used my left foot to pivot and walked away stiffly. I could hear King questioning tone as Alicia laughed. Stupid King.

Then something hit me.

"Hey...weren't the doors to the barn destroyed?" I asked as I stared at the doors confused.

I turned around to see King looking away with his eyes closed and coughing into his fist, embarrassed. Alicia was just doubled over, one arm hugging her waist and the other hitting her leg, crackling like man. I gave them a confused wary look.

I shrugged my arms at them completely out of the loop. "What?"

Alicia just shook her head as she walked pass me back to the farmer's house. King just fallowed right behind her silently, cheeks still red. I looked after them for a moment before fallowing with my arms still up in a confused shrug.

"Hey what's going on? Was it something I said?!"

And that's a rap! I'm really proud of this chapter, though the fighting scene had me hitting my head on the wall. I wanted to make it longer but I felt that this would be a good place to stop. I'll add the idea for this one to the other chapter. Which I like to warn you will be a lot more mature. Don't worry, I will leave a warning in the beginning of the next chapter.

Anyways! I'm still taking request in songs as well as nicknames for King. Please make them the most silliest and absurd names ever! The worst, the better! Well that's it for now I think. If you guys did enjoyed this, please don't hesitant to comment. Even to say that you like it, it was okay or to give me some pointers. You can even leave ideas you might wanna can even leave ideas you might wanna see. Please don't be afraid. Once again! No flames! Please!
