"Oh, this is sooooooo boring." Prince Ikki Tenriyo, 15 years old, sighed.
"Oh yeah... This sure is..." replied his best friend always, Metabee, also 15 years old.
"Look... If Henry stopped trying to make me a king..."
"Then he'd be crazy." Finished a voice behind the two boys, making them jump.
"H-H-Henry-chan!!!!" the two boys exclaimed.
"No... The Renegade. Of course it's me!!!" said Henry.
"Who's the Renegade?" asked Metabee, and the other two glared at him.
"In what world do you live, Metabee?" asked Ikki, perplexed.
"As far as I know, in Earth. But what do you mean?! We're not in Earth?! Are we in Mars?!" Metabee asked, but the others ignored his last remarks.
"The Renegade is a thief, a famous thief. He stoles from the royalty, and gods know what he does with it. He doesn't keep it, or else he'd be so rich, he wouldn't have to stole for his next 3 generations." Said Henry.
"Oh... But, err, hello Henry! What's up?" asked Metabee, trying to change the subject.
"Nothing, really. Just a lazy prince that doesn't want to be a prince!" answered Henry, more to Ikki than to Metabee. The boy, realizing this, excused himself, and ran off quickly.
"Henry, cut it off." Said Ikki.
"Ikki! You'll be the future king of Tobadem (yep, I have no imagination)! And yet, you're here, doing absolutely nothing!" said Henry.
"Henry!! Being a prince is nothing fun! I wish I could be just another ordinary guy, like all the others!"
"So, you could enter the sword competition that is gonna be held next month, in Iris Kingdom (thanks ^_^)!" replied Henry with a smirk.
"What are you talking about?" asked Ikki, blushing slightly. "What does that competition, that curiously cannot go, 'cause I don't know any swordskills, have to do with this argument?"
"The simple fact that that competition is being held to choose the fiancé of princess Karen." Replied Henry. "But, I thought you liked..."
"That was long ago, Henry." Ikki answered for him, not wanting him to finish. "She's gone, and I'm almost sure she'll never be back."
"You gave up hope, Ikki?" asked a voice behind them, reveling to be Metabee.
"You were there all the time, Metabee?!" Ikki questioned.
"Don't change the subject, Ikki Tenriyo. I thought you liked her enough to wait."
"But it's been 5 years, Metabee... They won't come back..." Ikki said sadly.
"I still believe in them, Ikki. The question now is: do you?" Metabee said, a bit angry, and left.
"Metabee sure liked that girl, didn't he?" asked Henry.
"Yes..." said Ikki.
'Erika...'
~~~* At night...
Ikki, cautiously, left the gates of the castle, cloak on, hiding from the guards. When he managed to exit the gates, a hand touched his shoulder, and immediately made him jump.
"Shhhh!! Ikki, it's me!" said the figure, that revealed itself to be Metabee.
"Metabee!" whispered Ikki, and then he punched the boy's head.
"What was that for?!" he demanded.
"For scaring me!" answered Ikki. "Now c'mon, let's get outta here."
"Ikki..." began Metabee, when they were half away the kingdom's entrance. "Where are we goin' by the way?"
"To Sakura town." Ikki simply answered.
"WHAT?!" yelled Metabee, and just after that he received a very hard punch on the stomach. "OW! That hurts!"
"It was supposed to! We're escaping, remember?!" Ikki asked, sarcasm in voice.
"Yeah, I remember, sorry... but Sakura Town, Ikki? It's pretty long way from here."
"Yep. But I heard that, in that town, there is this group of guys, that know swordship like no one else!" Ikki said.
"Good... So then you'll be able to enter that competition? (Ikki nodded) Great, it's here that we'll separate ourselves." Metabee said, ready to get back.
"What?! Metabee, c'mon! What are you doing?! Aren't you coming with me?" Ikki asked.
"No. That means you'll try to get that Karen girl, and that means..."
"Forgettin' Erika. Yes." He said, looking at the ground.
"How can you say such thing?! You told me you loved her! And yet, you're goin' to give up on her just because you haven't seen each other in a few years!"
"Not just 'a few years', Metabee! It's been 5 years. And that's a little time, you know. I can't keep on waiting for her, man. And Karen... she's so... beautiful..." Ikki whispered, daydreaming.
"More than Erika will ever be?" Metabee asked, and the other boy just stared at the ground. "Erika isn't the only one, Ikki. Another girl, as important as Erika for you, promised me that she'd come back. And I'll wait, okay?"
"B-but Metabee! You have to come with me! You're my friend! My best friend!" Ikki exclaimed, holding on Metabee's arm.
"I'm your only friend." He said.
"Please, Metabee. For our friendship... Come with me." Ikki asked. Metabee glared at him, then at the castle, now very far away, and then sighed heavily.
"How long will it take us to get there?" he asked, and the sight of a smile touched slightly the face of the young prince.
"Thanks, Metabee. I just knew I could count on you." Ikki said gently. "And answering your question... About 5 days."
"Five days?!?" Metabee exclaimed. "Oh man..."
