Alright! AU where Awesomestar is Notch's daughter (making her the 'Princess' of the Aether) and having just turned 18, is being courted by the Prince of the End, Deadlox (He has the dragon wings, nothing else)
Awesomestar frowned, glancing outside the large, shimmering palace she called home. She had been dreading the day of her 18th birthday for a long time.
Why did she have to get married? She had asked this question countless times, and always got the same answer, "So that the Aether kingdom strengthens its ties to the other kingdoms."
The Demi-god sighed, noticing a Valkyrie flying towards her. Seraph, her mother.
"Awesomestar, please wipe that snarl off of your face. You're a princess, not a warrior."
"Sorry mom," Awesomestar unfurled her left wing, allowing the white feathers to rustle in the gentle breeze. "I've been meeting suitors for hours! When can I leave?"
Seraph rolled her eyes at Awesomestar's impatience. "Soon, just one more, and you know him."
Awesomestar smiled softly, it had been pretty awkward having complete strangers ask her to marry them. "Who is it?"
"The prince of the End kingdom, Deadlox." As Seraph spoke, said prince entered the room, dragon wings stretched behind him, a polite smile on his face.
"Hello Lady Seraph," Deadlox began, bowing slightly to the Valkyrie. "Your majesty," he bowed again, Awesomestar returning it.
"Am I right to assume you know why I'm here?" Ty asked, his dark crimson eyes locking with Awesome's green ones.
"You are, but I do have one question, why do you wish to wed my daughter?" Seraph asked, fingers wrapped around her sheathed sword.
"My father feels that the Aether and the End have been distant for long enough. We fight against each other one minute, then with each other the next."
Awesomestar paused, she did think it would be good if her kingdom was a permanent friend of Deadlox's, instead of waiting to see who would attack who first.
Seraph frowned, "The Ender King thought of this? He does not like for his subjects to get close to others, especially his son. You weren't courting the Nether princess when she was of age."
"Mother, allow Prince Deadlox to explain himself, if you gut him for no reason Dad will have a headache trying to fix it!" Awesomestar spoke, flicking her tail to show she wished for Seraph to leave.
"I'm sorry your highness," Seraph bowed to Deadlox before taking flight, soaring off at an impressive speed.
"I must apologize about my mother." Awesomestar explained, "She does not trust people from the other kingdoms."
Deadlox shook his head. "It's completely understandable, Princess. The End is rather unstable when it comes to the other kingdoms. By having me wed to you, my father hopes to find an ally in the Aether."
Awesomestar smiled, "That's a wonderful idea, but you know that my father has to approve, and he's a-"
Awesomestar was cut off by a commanding voice. "I'm a what daughter?"
Deadlox dropped to one knee instantly, while Awesomestar merely bowed her head as Notch, lord of Minecraftia entered.
Notch motioned for Deadlox to rise, locking eyes with the End prince. "Prince Deadlox of the End kingdom, welcome to the Aether."
"Thank you my lord, it's an honor for me to be here." Deadlox said modestly.
"Daddy, I thought you were busy!" Awesomestar almost growled. She wanted to talk to her father alone about Deadlox's proposal.
Notch smiled, "Your mother alerted me of what is happening, so you really want to accept this offer?"
Awesomestar cursed internally, she had completely forgotten that Notch could read minds.
"Watch your language young lady."
'DAD!' Awesomestar yelled in her mind. 'Quit reading my mind!'
Notch turned to Deadlox, frowning lightly, "So why would the Ender King allow his son to marry MY daughter? The Aether is not powerful in combat, or rich in resources. He has other reasons, doesn't he?"
The glare The Lord of Minecraftia gave Deadlox had made Awesomestar flinch many times before, but he returned it coolly.
"If my father has alternate motives I do not know them."
Notch's eyes narrowed, his distrust for the Minecraftian royal growing. "I'm not sure if you deserve to wed her-"
"Daddy!" Awesomestar broke in, staring up at her father angrily. "Give him a chance will ya?"
Deadlox smiled to himself, he was seeing the real Awesomestar, not the polite, soft spoken Aether Princess who stood quietly at her father's side at meetings.
He felt his heart skip a beat, and a light blush dusted his cheeks.
Awesomestar adjusted her golden laurel crown before walking over to stand in front of Deadlox.
After a brief but intense telekinetic argument between Notch and his daughter, in which many hurtful things were thought, the two reached an agreement.
Notch crosses over to Deadlox, his arms crossed. "My daughter had proposed something, you will be allowed to court her for 3 months, and if at the end, she wants to marry you, I will allow it, understand?"
Deadlox smiles politely, and nods. "Yes, I do, thank you."
He crosses over to Awesomestar and kisses her hand gently. "You are being very generous by giving me This chance to prove myself, Princess. I won't disappoint you."
Okie dokie, this is actually a two-shot! It took me a month to write, but the next chapter won't! See ya soon!
