A/N: No sue! Sue bad! (And I think I can stop saying this now... I hope... -)
The love of a princess-
Suzumi groaned slightly as a bright light was shined into her eyes. She found herself staring up into the face of a man that should be dead. Her eyes narrowed as she focused on the specter.
"Death should not have taken thee, Suzumi."
Suzumi let out a scream and made an undignified scramble away from the man. "Death shouldn't have taken me! What about you! You should be dead! Dead in the ground!"
"I will give thee another chance."
Her hand clutched her sword painfully. "Give me another chance will he?" Suzumi grumbled angrily under her breathe.
"Now, go, Suzumi!"
Thoroughly dismissed, Suzumi pulled herself off the ground and forced herself not to kill the man again. Why was it so hard for these people to just die? Before she could make it out of the throne room a guard stepped into her path.
"Dost thou know about Princess Gwaelin?"
Suzumi stared blankly at the man. He was probably going to ask her for something in a minute. Something she wasn't going to like. "No, I don't know about the freaking princess. I don't give a damn!"
The man continued despite being shot down. "Half a year now hast passed since the princess was kidnapped by the enemy. Never does the King speak of it, but he must be suffering much. Suzumi, please save the princess."
She was fairly certain her eye was beginning to twitch when she heard another guard start whispering about the enemy. All Suzumi heard were the words 'green dragon'. Suzumi leapt clear across the room to grab the guard in a stranglehold. "Did you say green dragon?"
The man was too frightened for words but managed to nod. Suzumi growled slightly as she flung the man away from her. He smashed hard into the wall, his head making a hollow thud. "I don't care about the princess, but that green dragon's going to pay for killing me."
Later that day…
It had taken Suzumi most of the day to find the whereabouts of the green dragon. Most people were too scared to speak to her or they seemed to want to get in her way. She wasn't sure which, but there was a pile of dead bodies none-the-less.
She stood on the outreaches of the swamp. It didn't look very clean, and who knows what crap was at the bottom. Shuddering, Suzumi took a step forward and felt something nip at her heel. "What the hell?" She stood still for a moment but didn't feel it again.
Taking another step, Suzumi felt it again. "I don't have time for this crap." Suzumi growled lightly and ran forward into the swamp cave. Upon entering the nipping stopped, but it was pitch dark.
She rubbed her head slightly; there was a spell she learned recently that could help. What was it again? "Radical!" Nothing happened. Perhaps it had something to with light, it'd make sense anyway. "Flame!" The darkness seemed to be getting blacker just to taunt her.
"Radiant!" Finally a light burst into being above Suzumi, blinding her for a minute. "About bloody time, damn I need a drink." She listened for a moment before moving further into the cave, towards a shuffling noise.
"A green dragon draws near!"
Suzumi jumped as the dragon seemed to appear completely out of nowhere. It was the same thing that chomped and eat and killed her earlier. Suzumi drew her new weapon and prepared to fight the thing.
"Command?"
The same gnome from every other fight came forward. Rather annoyed to see him, Suzumi took it's cue cards and scratched out the commands for Fight and Magic. Fight became 'Shove sword up monster's ass' and Magic became 'Make big boom'.
"You have selected fight."
Suzumi exploded, killing both the gnome and the green dragon. She was soon soaked in blood and guts. "Too think things have so much blood in them." Walking further down the path the dragon had been protecting, Suzumi found a locked door. "Open, or not open." Thoughts of treasure pushed her to unlock the door, but she didn't find any sort of treasure.
"Thou art brave indeed to rescue me, Suzumi. I am Gwaelin, Daughter of Lorik. Will thou take me to the castle?"
Ignoring the girl, who was staring at her with what amounted to hero worship in her eyes, Suzumi eyed the interior of the room. There was nothing, no treasure, no gold, not even anything that showed the princess had been living there for half a year. Suzumi turned her attention back to the girl. "Take yourself back, you can walk, dumb whore."
"But thou must."
Suzumi felt the intense urge to kill her and blame her death on the dragon. "Fine. But that's it."
The girl lunged forward and attached herself to Suzumi. "I'm so happy."
That was sort of obvious as the girl was grabbing her ass. "I am so dropping you into the nearest ocean." Suzumi used her magic to get them outside the cave and back to the castle. The girl hanged off her like a monkey. "Do you mind? You're choking me." Gwaelin just held on tighter.
Realizing the King may be her only chance to get her off, Suzumi hurried to the throne room. The King and a guard had been playing cards in her absence; they quickly hid them with a guilty look.
"Forever shall I be grateful for the gift of my daughter returned to her home, Suzumi. Accept my thanks. Now Gwaelin, come to my side."
Gwaelin finally released her hold on Suzumi's neck and went to her father. After whispering to him for a moment, she turned back to Suzumi.
"Wait a moment, please. I would like to give a present to Suzumi. Please accept my love, Suzumi. Even when we tow are parted by great distances, I shall be with thee. Farewell, Suzumi."
Gwaelin handed Suzumi 'her love'. "Why does this thing look like a walkie-talkie?" Suzumi peeled off a sticker saying "Gwaelin's love'. "It is a walkie-talkie! What the hell do I need with this piece of crap! I want money!" Pissed, Suzumi turned and stormed out of the room. "I am so selling this thing."
"Heed my voice, Suzumi for this is Gwaelin."
Suzumi hadn't made it quite out of the castle gates yet. "What the fucking hell!" She pulled the walkie-talkie from her bag and stared at it.
"To reach the next level thou must raise thy experience points by 2,974. My hope is with thee. I love thee, Suzumi."
She was sure the vein in her forehead was going to burst. "Hey, what's that you have there?" One of the guards was staring at the walkie-talkie in her hand. "It's a gift for you." Suzumi pushed the thing into his hand and made a run for it.
"Suzumi? Suzumi! Come back my love!"
Suzumi let out a scream and kept running. She didn't stop upon reaching the swamp cave; she didn't stop until she was at Rimuldar. Upon reaching the town, she set up housekeeping at the bar and refused to leave.
