THE WINGED KNIGHT

Disclaimer: Kids..mine....Most adults...Squaresofts.

When we arrived back at the central area of the city everyone turned to look at us. Then I saw my mother running through the crowd to get to me.

"Oh, Dagger" she said throwing her arms around me, then continuing "Is everything alright? Are you hurt? Did he try anything?"

"Mom...I'm ok. Nothing happened. I swear." I said trying to convince her.

I might have succeeded if Rusty hadn't jumped in. "Your Highness! She is lying. The dish-washer was....was...I don't want to say it. It makes me sick to have to remember such a thing. The dishwaser boy was kissing your daughter."

I winced. Not that my mother would care. I mean look at who she had married. One of the top theifs. But...if everyone found out Wolf was second most wanted and that I, well accually Blade, was number one on the most wanted list. I would lose my position of future queen. Or worse. Everyone would disown me. I wouldn't mind though. But...maybe even..Wolf. Could he? No, he already knew about it. Then out of no where, my sister Amickru showed up. She looked concerned as she ran through the crowd.

"Uh...sorry mom. But I need to see Dagger.......Alone. Now. Please?" Our mother nodded. Amickru grabbed my arm and drug me through the crowd toward a back alley. Once we got there I got a good look at her. She was plae.

"Whats wrong Amickru? Is everything ok?" I asked.

"I was inspecting the troops today. Just before I heard about you jumping out of the window and all that. But I saw something extremely strange. A newcomer soldier. He had wings! Dragon like wings."

For a second I wondered why she had come to me about this and not someone else. But then it dawned on me. She knew I was Blade. Maybe she thought I might have seen this kind of thing before. I had. Wolf.

"Amickru. What did this soldier look like?" I asked. I knew it couldn't be Wolf. But maybe just maybe it was one of his brothers. "

Well.... He had red hair. He was tall, (emily ' HE WAS TALL!!!!! LoL) and...oh yeah! He had the most beautiful green eyes! But not 'oh I could fall in love with this man' beautiful more like 'um..i should be going because your eyes are evil' beautful." she said nodding. 'She looks like mom when she does that. Mom........with red hair.' I thought.

"Well? What do I do?" she asked.

"Well....he had wings...so?"

"Well...you don't think its weird.....he was evil looking. And he had wings!" she said puting her hand on her hip.

"Well...Wolf has dragon like wings to."

"He does? How come I've never seen 'em?"

"I dunno.. I just found out not to long ago." I said and took a few steps back then transformed into a Blade like fairy again and flew away. I went towards the HQ. Once I got there, I went straight up the stairs thro the front and sat down on the couch. A few mintues later Wolf walked in. I smiled and he came over and sat next to me.

"So the almighty Blade/ Dirk cries?" he smirked

"Yes...I do. I also love you" I said and leaned over and kissed him.

"Good...because I've loved you since the second I saw you.....over 15 years ago." he smiled.

"Really? I thought it was a one-sided love."

"Never....not as long as theres two people right?" (NO David this is not going to end in a sex scene....sorry)

"Yea, your right." I stood up and transformed into a normal Dagger and he smiled.

"YOUR HIGHNESS WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH THIS.....THIS.....THIS....COMMONER!!!!!!!!! YOU WERE TOLD TO STAY AWAY FROM HIM!!!!!!!!" I turned around to see....yet again....Adelbert....

"ALRIGHT RUSTY SHUT THE F*CK UP! I WILL ASSOCIATE WITH WHOMEVER I WANT TO AND YOU HAVE NO CONTROL OVER THAT!!!!!!!!! AND BESIDES YOU CAN'T KEEP ME AWAY FROM WOLF BECAUSE I LOVE HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I shouted. Rusty just stood there dumbstruck. He blinked a few times. Then walked out of the bar and outside. I turned and smiled at Wolf. He blinked a few times to. I tilted my head to the side and he continued blinking then he smiled. I smiled to. He stood up and put his arms around me and kissed me. It wasn't a normal kiss... A kiss that told me I was in love with this boy...no this man standing in front of me. He looked down at me and said

"I love you..."

I didn't say anything. I just leaned closer to his body. Running my hand up over his chest. Then he said

"Dagger......"

"Yes?"

"I have to go.....but tomarow...meet me behind the water falls."

"Ok...."

With that he left. Leaving me standing alone.....I looked up through the hole in our roof and it started to rain...I stood there in that rain. It was a blessing. Then I left and headed for home. Once I got there a whole group of pluto knights was standing guard ready to escort me to my room in the highest tower... Not that it was something that I did to be punished. I just liked it up there....Besides all the servants quarters ran to it. Easy way to escape. I layed down on my bed and fell asleep.
