Disclaimer: Everybody for your info i don't own escaflowne........now that i'm done with that lets get on with the story.

Recap:

"So you can continue the celebration and Falken will handle the girl." Van stated. "And there will be no more interruptions, I mean other than Gadis's screaming?" Allen asked. "Seems to be so."

"*Moan* Where am I?"

Falken's Visitor

"You are at the Fanelia castle. I would like to introduce myself...they call me Falken Fanel. What is your name?"

"Umm...why...and what am I doing here??" Max questioned in an accusing tone.

"You fell from the sky and then fled.. Up here to my room...that's how I caught you. My brother was trying to chase you when you hid in here...I have many questions for you. For example- How did you get here? Where do you come from? Where did you learn to fight? How can you run so fast? Why is your hair blue?" Falken asked the last question in a confused voice.

"My hair well that's simple I dyed it blue. My name is Max. I come from Earth just like Hitomi. I learnt to fight from my brothers. I can run fast because it was part of my training to be agile. Anything else?"

"Yes, Your name is Max? Isn't that a boys name?"

"Well I guess it could be a guys name...but then again what kind of name is Falken??" Max shot back defensively.

"I'll have you know Falken is a perfectly normal name." Falken shouted in rage. "How dare you come here and insult my name. What are you doing here anyway?" Falken questioned suspiciously.

"I came to kill your king and rob you blind...How the hell am I suppose to know how and why I'm here. All I know is I landed nicely and the next thing I knew I had people running at me and asking me questions. And there was this annoying little cat. Then I decked a guy 'cause he was pissing me off. Then some other guy came at me looking pissed so I got the hell out of there. But after that you did something to me after I hit you to make me sleep so here I am."

"Could you repeat that slowly. You were talking in quite haste so I barely heard a word you were saying."

"Alright fine." Max repeated exactly what she had said before. Although she added a few gruesome details on how she hit people and planned to kill their King.

"What do you mean...you plan on killing my brother??That is outrageous how dare you even think such a thing! Killing our king. We will not here of it. I will stop you. Even if I have to kill you in the process." Falken was rambling.

Seeing that Falken was so obsessed over keeping the life of his king Max related the truth to him. "Listen, bud." She started. "I don't have any plan to kill your king-

"But you said..

"What I said was all said in good humor ... or maybe bad humor from your point of view. It was sarcastic. I have no plan to kill your king...unless of course he really gets on my nerves than maybe I'll reconsider. All I know is that I apparently came during a wedding...and if that was Hitomi that I saw getting married I'll tell you that her parents won't be the least impressed.

"Why wouldn't they. Allen is a very honourable man, not as honourable as my brother but...
