First Times

A MKR fic made by A. Pikachu

Author's notes: Sorry for that mishap in uploading chapters 6 & 7. My documents are named the same, that's why I made the mistake. Now here's the eighth installment of First Times, which is the fourth installment of Forbidden Love: Troubles of a Prince and a Princess. Dozo, minna-san.  

***Start…***

***Curtains close, then open once again.*** (You know. All un-italicized parts are Emeraude's parts.)

Some months have passed and no one still knows except Prince Ascot and Princess Umi.

"But Prince Lantis… we cannot continue on like this…" The 19-year-old princess said as the prince stroked her hair. Ever since they had admitted their love to each other, they have been secretly going to the garden.

"I know, Hikaru…my mother notices that I have disappeared from the castle many a time." Lantis sighed. He wanted this war to end.

"My father and Baron Eagle notices that too… I don't know what to do now…" the princess tried to stop tears falling from her crimson- colored eyes. "My father has decided that…that…" she sobbed again, now embracing the prince. "That my wedding…with Eagle…is next week…"

"What?" Lantis exclaimed. He can't believe that King Clef is doing this to the both of them. "My mother and father have decided too…that my marriage to Countess Alcyone…will be on the same date…" The Prince looked at the sobbing princess clutching his robes. He stroked the princess' red hair absentmindedly.

"What shall we do now? Now that our parents have noticed our disappearances in our own kingdoms…I don't want to be separated with you, let alone live without seeing you at all, dear Lantis… What shall we do…?" Hikaru mumbled as she continued crying. They stayed like that for some time until a voice was heard, calling for the Princess' name.

"My dear little sister, where are you?" Princess Fuu's voice called out.

"I am sorry, Lantis, to depart on such an early time… I must dry my tears now, before my older sister finds me here with you. I am thankful that I found you, and I pray to God that this is not the last time I see you…I love you, Lantis, I really do." Hikaru kissed the prince shortly before running out of the garden, her long skirt of smooth red and white velvet trailing behind her.

"Hikaru… if only we did not meet at this time...if only we met earlier…we would not have suffered through the consequences of war…" the prince sadly sighed and stood up, his eyes trailing over to the direction where his angel had fled to. But alas, he could not do anything.

***In the audience…***

"Hey onii-chan, the play's good. They're great actors, don't you think?" Kinomoto Sakura whispered as she watched the redhead girl run out from the scene. (Hey, every animè I know is watching, so watch out for some characters…)

"No one still beats our Cinderella play." Touya chuckled silently. "We stink."

"Hey, they do not stink, Touya-kun!" Akizuki Nakuru protested from behind. "They're actually good, and the actor's playing the prince and the baron is kawaii!!" Touya glared at Nakuru as if he was jealous.

"Their costumes are fantastic!" Daidouji Tomoyo exclaimed. "And the props and lighting are great!"

"Tomoyo-chan… don't you think of anything else?" Meiling asked, sweat-dropping. Eriol just laughed and watched the play.

Yukito was watching the play as well, beside Touya and in front of Nakuru too. (Resembles the love triangle that I think is soo kawaii: Touya-Nakuru-Yukito…) Syaoran was beside Sakura and on his other side was a blue-headed girl with a very hot temper.

"That's not fair!!!!!! Lantis should kiss me, not that girl!! That is not fair, not fair at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" the girl hissed, her eyes staring at the prince.

"And the plot is nice! Very good! I must know who's the writer." Naoko's glasses glistened.

"Actually, the narrator is Miss Emeraude, who is the teacher of Cephiro High class 2-1. She's my classmate some years ago." Terada-sensei said. They watched in silence as the prince said a line.

***Meanwhile, behind the Card Captor Sakura gang…***

Ash sweat-dropped as he looked at the orange-haired 16-year old girl beside him.

"That is soooooo cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Misty Waterflower exclaimed, watching the play.

"Misty!!!! Shh! We are trying to watch the play!" The rest of the Pokèmon gang hissed, making the Cerulean City Gym Leader shrivel in silence.

***Meanwhile, behind the Card Captor Sakura Gang and behind the Pokèmon gang…***

"Kawaii!" Kobayakawa Miyuki exclaimed, watching the rest of the play. "The plot's soo romantic!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Kobayakawa…" Nakajima Ken said, looking down at the black-haired police officer.

"I want to get their autographs right after the play!!" Nikaidou Yoriko said, her glasses shining.

"Yoriko, you are older than them!" Futaba Aoi said, sweat-dropping. "But still they are good. I'm beginning to think that they're not high-school students."

"Just shut up and watch the play." Tsujimoto Natsumi snapped, pouring all her attention to the play.

***Meanwhile, behind the Card Captor Sakura Gang, behind the Pokèmon gang and behind the You Are Under Arrest! Gang…***

"Oooh! They're so romantic!!!! Was your love story with Keiichi-kun like that? Was it, onee-sama????" Skuld asked repeatedly, looking up at her chestnut-haired sister.

"Well, not really but Skuld…" Belldandy sighed. Her sister was still like that, after four years here in Earth.

"I want my love story to be like that…" Skuld sighed as she looked at the play. "If someone…ever loved me, like Keiichi loved you, Belldandy onee-sama."

"Oh c'mon Skuld! I'm …well…I'm sure that there's a person in the whole wide world that loves you!" Keiichi sweat-dropped.

"Well, can you quiet down for a while? I'm watching the play." Urd commented.

***Back to the play…***

***Lantis walks out of the scene as the garden props move away by electric remote control and the backdrop rolls up, revealing another grassland where the two princesses are walking. ***

Princess Hikaru hurried out of the secret garden to meet Princess Fuu near the entrance. Hikaru panted.

"Sister, what did you want from me?" the younger princess asked.

"Father needed you to try your wedding gown on and let Baron Eagle and him see. Add mother and me." Fuu sighed. "I kmow this is hard for you, dear sister. I love your dear's brother…who is Prince Ferio."

"Sister, how come you aren't married while I am going to be?" Hikaru wondered, walking back to the castle with her sister. Fuu sighed again.

"You see, our father decided who weds first. And he chose you, dear, to be the first one because you are the most prettiest among us two." Fuu smiled. "I'm surely, love would find a way for you two, but for now, at least try to obey our father's wishes, before he knows that you are secretly going out of the castle." Fuu explained, entering the castle's doors and proceeded to the throne room, Hikaru at her heels.

***2nd backdrop rolls up again, this time revealing the throne room backdrop and props. Prescea and Clef sits on thrones (high, decorated chairs, I suppose) while Eagle stands beside. ***

"We have come, my Father, upon your words and orders." Fuu and Hikaru said in unison, curtsying at the same time, before their parents and before the Baron.

"Yes my dears. Well my dear Hikaru, please proceed to the chamber and you will meet some handmaids to help you dress up. After, please walk out and let us see." King Clef said, making his daughter walk away. Then after some while, the young princess walked out hesitantly, a frown crossing her delicate face.

"My child, you are beautiful and elegant. Surely our country will rise against Autozam, because of you, my dear, and conquer their land instead of ours." Clef continued. Baron Eagle stepped up to the princess wearing her white wedding gown, a veil covering her red hair and eyes.

"Why such a frown on our happy day, my queen?" Eagle said, tracing the face of the young bride-to-be. "Your happiness is needed for our special occasion."

Hikaru, who couldn't take it anymore, grabbed the Baron's hand and threw it down. "Do not touch me." She said harshly, out of her character. Her cheerfulness was gone; instead it was replaced by sadness and misery.

"Princess Hikaru --!" was all the baron could say.

"Hikaru! You mustn't do that! He is going to be your husband and you must not treat him like that! Where did you learn that impolite gesture, young lady?" Clef asked, eyeing his daughter. "This is for his sake, my sake, and our country's happiness and freedom… my young child, do this for me."

Fuu and Prescea eyed the scene, knew what was going to happen.

"For me, for me, for me! That is all you say!" Hikaru exclaimed, throwing the silky veil down the marble floor. She looked at her father with a tearful face.

"You ask us to do anything without considering what our reactions are! You didn't even consult me about this unwilling matter! Why can't you even think of my happiness for once, father? Why couldn't you push the thoughts of war on the back of your mind and think about us, your family for once? I don't even see the result and the importance of this war against Autozam!" Hikaru turned her back on her father and stormed out of the throne room.

"Hikaru! Wait!" Fuu called out, running out of the hall, followed by their mother, Prescea.
