Hey, how's it going ghouls and boils Halloween is just around the corner
know just to let ya know I don't own Slayers but feel free to review and
criticize my fic.
After Filia's father finished with the introduction, the King of Ryu stated they would continue their conversations in the great dining hall but the children were free to explore the castle and kingdom but were restricted to a certain boundary, as the princess would act as their guide.
*****
"These are my Bellaryuu Lilies, the royal flower of our kingdom I've grown them from just seedlings.....what do you think?" Filia asked as she stepped back almost tripping and falling flat on her face thanks to her irritating dress. Filia led the 3 Metallium children (known as Xellos the eldest and heir to thrown, Xavier the middle child and Xei-Xei the baby who was being held by her brother Xavier) to the gardens that were located just behind the castle.
To the normal eye the garden was quite breathtaking as it was a sea colours that perfumed a heavenly smell to any ongoer. Xellos took a whiff from the flower and was soon followed by his siblings as they took in the smell, the breath ruffling their hair. "They're very pretty but nothing seems to be that exceptional about them, Fi." The heir to Metallium thrown commented giving the princess a smile. Filia gritted her teeth and her brow furrowed ever so slightly.
"Please refrain from calling me Fi, it's Filia. Now what do you mean not that exceptional I'd say they're one of the most beautiful flowers. Name one that's more prettier!" she ordered her voice rising slightly that she'd would be recognized not as princess but as an unruly brute. Xellos smiled at her once more and seemed to have dusted off a piece of imaginary lint from his black vest.
"Why, perhaps my kingdoms royal flower the Lupine Moon Drops the most extraordinary and deadly flowers of them all. Greatly admired for its beauty and its deadly poison." He commented giving her a superior smirk. The blonde shook with rage she hadn't ever seen the Lupine Moon Drops in her life but she felt the need rip out her short locks in her frustration. Already this boy was getting under her skin and she could tell he'd be the core factor off competition in this oh so happy visit week. Filia opened her mouth to retort but was silenced by the cute gurgle from Xei-Xei and Xavier's outburst.
"Hmm, I quite disagree I think the Bellaryuu Lilies and Lupine Moon Drops both hold the same good qualities are equally beautiful." He spoke in a gentle voice as he trailed his fingertip along a flower. The princess of Ryu blinked in surprise for it was the first time the boy had spoken out loud before since the few hours he's been here. A chuckle from Xellos brought Filia from her thoughts as she walked over to Xavier and gave him a bright smile.
"Thank you Xavier I think your opinions have much more value and precision than your brother over there." She said as she patted Xei-Xei's head and threw Xellos a scowl and soon after her pink tongue was propped in his direction. The middle Metallium child blinked and lowered his gaze to the ground as he cheeks turned red.
"Thank, you Filia." He whispered not to be heard by his older brother. The purple-headed prince shook his head and begun to walk in front of them towards the castle.
"I think my brother has a crush on you Fi...figures that he'd pick a loud mouth who's completely selfish and inconsiderate of anyone's opinions." He replied while continuing to walk back to the castle his brown shoes crunching gently on the grass. The princess knitted her knuckles together until they turned slightly white and she rushed in front of him holding out her arm, showing that he would stop and not pass her.
"Don't call me Fi and you better take that back." She hissed giving him a scornful glare. Xellos tsked and shook his head, his bangs covering his closed eyes like some sort of halo.
"Well, I guess I can call you Fifi or big mouth or selfish." He named off, "But I'm not taking back what I said what was true about you." And he began to walk ahead of her again followed by his younger kin. The princess growled again and ran in front for the second time this time going close up to him that their stubby noses were touching.
"I wouldn't talk about calling me selfish you brigand you are stuck-up brat........I also have a name for you to address me by Filia. Now for your insolence I think I'm going to teach you a lesson I challenge you to a fight." She commanded her shoulder's hunched and her eyes shooting daggers. The boy opened his eye's in complete surprise staring long and hard at her, the princess stepped back an inch his eyes were small amethyst slits but she stepped forwards not wanting to back down on her challenge.
"You're a very interesting princess kind of like Lina." He reminisced as he eyes slowly closed tightly shut again "Okay, then but I won't go easy on you." He said giving her a feral grin as Xavier and Xei-Xei watched them both throw each other gloating smirks and comments.

Filia tugged the hem of her knee high dark brown boots to their proper position. She had to quickly change and sneak into the training-battling arena with the Metallium children. Xellos was scratching a smooth stone against one side of his sword that he received from his father King Seth. Xavier ran up to the princess of Ryu looking her straight in her blue eyes, both of them locked black with blue.
"Are you sure you want to battle my brother he's very good and sometime he gets real ruthless and doesn't show any mercy if he's really caught up in battle, no matter who his opponent is." He explained trying to give good reason to her that perhaps she should back down. The blonde shook her head and grabbed her sword from the dirt filled and hay sprinkled floor.
"My mind's made up I'm going to teach your smart-aleck brother a lesson if it kills me." She answered as she walked passed the middle child and went into the middle of the duelling area; soon Xellos joined her in the middle. His hands were gently sprawled against the sword as he leaned it slightly to the left side of his body. His legs were far apart and his eyes were still closed, that is infuriated Filia to any means end. The princess' position on her sword was quite different as she lifted one leg with complete and utter balance and straightened her back and raised her sword to lean on the right side of her body. Xavier walked up to both of them and sighed in failing to bring either to senses and stop this stupid fight.
"Are you both ready?" he questioned as he looked at their grim and serious faces. Both of them gave him a stern nod and he took a deep breath. "FIGHT!" Xellos dove towards Filia in a striking position aiming for her gut, his brows furrowed his mind set completely on wining. The princess grinned for she had a few tricks the name of her starting position was called the 'La mort d'en haut' meaning death from above....but the princess had to altered for she didn't want to harm in that manor. Filia rapidly leaped in the air by briskly pushing all her force on her lone leg that was on the ground. As she was in the air she pointed her sword downward on the disgruntled prince..........but he quickly dodged in such speed Filia found it hard to comprehend.
"The prince smiled at her as her sword stabbed mercilessly into the floor missing its target he waved his index finger at her and with a flick he beckoned for her to get up and resume fighting. The princess smiled as she forcefully ripped her sword form the floor and smirked at the prince, while lunging towards him.

The King of Ryu excused himself from the dining hall and went to his private studies looking at the message he has just received from the Kingdom of Nato. It was an infuriating declaration that not only angered the King but made him shake with fear. Nato was expanding it's territory and wanted to take over some of Ryu by allowing the King of Nato's son found marrying the Princess of Ryu, if she was not already betrothed. Tai shook his head and waited for his King to speak.
"This is truly a grim situation we have here old friend." He whispered in a tight and worried voice. A loud knock on the door brought them from their worried moods and beckoned the person in; it was King Seth.
"Balzard are you alright, it looks like you gone ill the way you rushed form the dining hall. Come now tell me what bothers you." Seth asked as he went over to the King. After handing Seth the document and him reading it over there was once again silent being shattered. "This is a terrible mess that has ensnared you, what shall you do?" The King of Ryu merely shrugged his shoulders and once again got caught into thought.
"I'm not sure what to do......I won't allow for my daughter to be married to the son of Zye, his son is nothing but a delinquent and brute." He growled while clenching his fists into tight balls. Seth scratched his chin in thought as an idea crossed his mind.
"Perhaps..Balzard how about your daughter marries my eldest son, Xellos instead uniting our two kingdoms. That way both your daughter and kingdom shall be safe from the Nato pursuers." He exclaimed getting a content expression from Balzard.
"An excellent idea when my daughter turns old enough she shall be wed to your son. I mean they'll probably becoming excellent friends by now." The King laughed as a guard came in clutching his bleeding nose.
"My Lords both prince Xellos and princess Filia have been fighting with swords and refuse to stop until one of them gives up and none of the guards can overpower them." He cried as he tried to fix his broken nose.
**End Flashback***
A knock on the door brought the princess from her thoughts as she rolled over and looked at the booming door. "Alright, I'm coming." She mumbled as she slipped off her bed and went to the door.
