Chapter 1: First Visit to the Sanc Kingdom

"Lu, are you ready to go? We don't have much time left before the plane leaves."
"Coming Daddy," Noin yelled, barreling down the front steps. "Watch out or I might knock
you over." He jumped out of the way as Noin bolted into the back seat of the limo.
"Noin, take care of your father." Noin's grandmother said coming from the front steps. "He
must eat healthy food, not just snacks."
"Understood Gramma." Noin winked to her dad and waved goodbye to her grandmother as the car
pulled out of the driveway to take them to the airport. "So Daddy, where are we going this
time?" she asked mischievously.
"To the Sanc Kingdom Lu." Senor Borgia answered playing with his daughter's hair.
"Is there anyone there for me to play with father? You're meetings make me sleepy."
"Actually dear there is. There is the young prince Miliardo. He's about your age. Maybe
he would play with you."
"Does he fence father? I do so love to fence."
"I don't know. You'll have to ask," he replied but young Lucrezia was already asleep in the
big seat. "What would I do without you?" he asked himself.

Lucrezia awoke later that day to find herself in a large lavish room, not unlike her own
back in Italy. "Where am I," she asked aloud curious to see if anyone else was in the room.
"The guest room," said a boy bowing. "Please forgive my rudeness but do you fence?"
She bounded off the bed and answered excitedly. "Do I fence, what a silly question. No
one, not even my father has ever beaten me, if I remember correctly."
"Really?" he asked a smile tugging at his lips. "No one has ever beaten me either, or at
least not that I can remember anyway."
"This should be enjoyable." Lucrezia laughed.
"Do you always laugh at such odd times?" he asked her, with an eyebrow going up.
"Well whenever the time feels right. You know you look a lot like my father when you do
that." The boy stared at her not quite sure what to make of her. He opened his mouth but
Lucrezia interrupted.
"So where is the equipment?" she asked.
"He looked at her dumbfoundedly, then regrouped himself. "Follow me I'll take you there."
He stammered.
"All right," Noin said and followed him out of the room. She shut the door and quickly
rushed up to the young boy.
"So how old are you?"she asked.
"I'm four and a half, and you?"
"Awe, the same. There's no one our age to play with where I am."
"Same here. It gets very boring. Do you have any brothers or sisters, um what is your
name?"
She stopped, and he stopped and turned to see what she was doing. "I guess we skipped the
introduction. I don't think my father would be to happy about that." She added jokingly.
She reached her hand out, took his and shook it. "The name is Lucrezia Noin Borgia," she
bowed as she had always been taught. "I'm delighted to meet you, Ms. Lucrezia," he bowed as well, " my name is Miliardo
Peacecraft, and I believe you dodged my first question."
"You would be correct. I have no brothers or sisters. My mom died when I was born."
Miliardo looked at the ground. "I'm sorry I shouldn't have asked."
"That's all right," she laughed, "besides I think we're here."
He looked up from his feet. "I guess your right. The fencing room is right across the
hallway. Meet you there when you're ready."
"Of course," she answered and entered the equipment room.

She was first to the room with her sword in hand, and slowly practiced moves she'd learned
since she could hold the sword, until young Miliardo entered.
"You're Good," he said approvingly.
"You don't seem so bad yourself," she said smiling while she watched him practice for a
moment.
"Shall we begin," he asked. Lucrezia nodded her agreement and pulled the mask down.
The two fell back into their according positions, and Noin started off with a simple thrust,
which in return was just as easily parried. The match continued with thrusts, parries, and
occasional lunges until Lucrezia gained the upper hand and knocked the sword from her
opponent's hand.
Miliardo simply gawked at her, how had she managed to spin the sword from his hand. Noin
layed the sword down and pulled off her mask. "Are you okay," she asked concerned. "I
didn't hurt you did I?"
"Oh, no I'm fine," he answered pulling off his own mask. "How did you do that?"
She laughed in response, while heading for the equipment room.
"What, what did I say?" he asked confused again.
"How did I do my last move, that's what you said." She stared out into space. "My father
taught me that one. He said most people don't expect it. I guess he was right. So, time
is it? I expect you have tea time, and I don't see a clock." She discarded her fencing
gear.
"Ought oh," he said.
"Ought oh what?"
"I was supposed to bring you to where the grown ups are when you woke up."
"That's a definite ought oh. We better hurry."
Miliardo shoved off his gear and quickly beckoned for her to follow him. They ran down
several hallways until he stopped outside a big entertainment room. They composed
themselves quickly then walked in.
Lucrezia ran and bounded into her father's lap, who gave her a big hug in return. "King
Peacecraft, this is my daughter Lucrezia." She stood up and bowed. The king walked over
and shook her hand.
"You have wonderful manners Miss Lucrezia." He tousled her hair and she blushed in
accompaniment with that and the complement. "She's very humble to." This caused an even
bigger, and more pronounced blush to appear on Lucrezia's face.
"Thank-you sir."
He motioned his son over. "This is Miliardo, my son" Miliardo bowed. The King then
motioned his wife, who was holding their youngest over. "And this is my wife the Queen, and
my daughter Relena."
"How do you do Ma'am?" Noin asked.
"Why I'm wonderful, thank-you very much."
"Miss Relena is very cute," Lucrezia added.
"I bet she loved that." The Queen said as her young daughter giggled.
"Pagan, could you come and take the kids out?" the king bellowed.
Noin's father gave her a peck on the head and a see you in a little while. Pagan came in,
and swept the kids out.
'The king is very loud, but friendly, and the Queen is very nice too. So unlike some of the
other people we visit." Lucrezia thought as Pagan took her to a large playroom.
They played till seven when an exquisite dinner was served, then at eight all the children
were put to bed.
Noin had taken too long of a nap that afternoon and couldn't sleep, so she decided to
examine the room. She ran her fingers along an ornate dresser, then seeing the drawers
began to open them to see what was in them.
