Morning came by and we see Istvan was sleeping by Sayori and Suni with Sayori's hair as their blanket. As Istvan was sleeping, a drop of water landed on his face.
"Huh?" Istvan woke up to see a soaked Maximus glaring at him.
Istvan smiled at him and closed his eyes. "Well, I hope you're here to apologize."
A few seconds later, Sayori and Suni woke up by Istvan's scream. They gasped when they see Maximus dragging Istvan away by pulling his foot with his mouth.
"No, no, no, put me down! Let me go! Let me go!" Istvan cried out as Sayori ran up towards them and grabbed Istvan's hands.
"Release him!" Sayori shouted as she and Maximus did a tug-a-war with Istvan. She pulled Istvan away and Maximus was left with Istvan's boot. Maximus ran up to get Istvan.
Sayori got in front of Istvan and tried to calm Maximus down while blocking his way to get to Istvan. "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Easy, boy, easy! Settle down! Whoa, whoa! Easy, boy, easy. Easy."
Maximus stopped stuggling and stared at Sayori.
"That's it."
Suni was by Sayori's side and used her hands to gesture Maximus to calm down.
"Now, sit." Sayori said. Maximus holds back to sit down.
"Sit!" Maximus sat down like a dog.
"What?" Istvan was shocked at what just happened.
"Now, drop the boot." Sayori said. Maximus stayed put.
"Drop it!" Maximus dropped the boot.
"Aww, you are such a good boy! Yes, you are." Sayori said as she walked up to Maximus and pet him like a dog. Maximus started to wag his tail like a dog.
"You're all tired from chasing this bad man all over the place?" Maximus nodded.
"Excuse me?" Istvan exclaimed.
"Nobody appreciates you, do they?" Sayori asked. Maximus grunts. "Do they?" Maximus grunts again and hugs Sayori…kinda.
"Oh, come on. He's a bad horse!" Istvan shouted as he walked up towards Sayori.
"Oh, he's nothing but a big sweetheart!" Sayori said, Maximus neighed delightedly.
"Isn't that right?" Sayori looked at the buckle that Maximus was wearing. "Maximus?"
"You've got to be kidding me." Istvan said. Maximus grunts angrily at him.
"Look. Today is kind of the biggest day of my life, and the thing is, I need you not to get him arrested." Sayori explained to the horse. "Just for twenty-four hours and then you can chase each other to your heart's content, okay?"
Istvan sighed before he stretched out his hand to Maximus who turned away.
"And it's also Sayori's birthday. Just so you know." Suni added.
Maximus reluctantly agrees and shakes, hooves and hands with Istvan.
Sayori heard distant bells and walked away. Maximus hits Istvan in the chest.
"Oomg!" Istvan groaned before he fell to the ground. Maximus neighed happily.
~Elsewhere~
Sayori, Suni, Istvan, and Maximus was walking across a bridge. Music filled the area and Sayori was awed by the village and the people who were selling stuff.
Istvan secretly took off a wanted poster of him and Maxmius snorted at him. Then, they got into a fight.
"Hey!" They turned to Suni who had her head turned to them while walking with Sayori. "Cut. It. Out." She said threateningly.
Sayori entered the city, but bumped into people because her hair was outrageously long. "Oh, oh, sorry!"
Istvan collected Sayori's hair and Maximus and Suni caught up to them. Istvan looked around and noticed four little girls who have braided hair. He whistled to get their attention. The little girls looked up to see Istvan showing them Sayori's hair. They got excitied when they saw her hair and started to braid it.
Istvan hid himself when he saw a couple of guards were walking by. He looked up and gasped when he saw Sayori's long hair was now in a French braid that fell to her ankles and had flowers around the braid.
"Thank you!" Sayori thanked the girls as she spine around in a princess-like way.
Istvan smiled at her, but Maximus and Suni gave him a look. They gave him a 'You-Love-Her' look.
Istvan and Sayori were in line buying food. Sayori got out of the line when she noticed two different mosaic. The first mosaic was of the King, Queen, and two kids that were twins; a girl with long platinum blonde hair and purple eyes and a boy with short platinum blonde hair and purple eyes. The second mosaic was of the King, Queen, and a baby with long white hair like Sayori's.
Sayori looked closer and sees that the baby had the same white hair and brown eyes like her. A little girl was at the second mosaic with her little brother.
"It's for the lost princess." The little girl said to her brother before she put a flower down.
"Huh?" Sayori was confused a little. Now everyone was dancing and Sayori and Istvan ate cupcakes.
During the day, Sayori and Istvan got closer. Sayori got kind of frantic and started to get people to join in to a music that no one can hear, but they still dance gracefully to some song they can't hear but the spectators. She even got Istvan to join in.
Maximus and Suni were watching Sayori and Istvan dance around. Sayori and Istvan finally rejoined at the end of the dance. The people applauded for them as Sayori and Istvan stared at each other's eyes.
"To the boats!" Someone shouted.
