Ran seemed hidden from the world laying the grass, the vast field of flowers, bushes and a water fountain that filled the courtyard. Ran was known to be one of the youngest knights of the kingdom and one of the best swordsman at that. But when given a book you could have banged pots and pans before walking right up to him and taking an ax to his head. "Heads UP!" Yelled Prince Ken as the sliver and black spotted ball came crashing down. Ran recovers from the attack, glaring at Ken for making him loss his page. Everyone usually ran in fear from Ran but not Ken, people may say Prince Ken was a brave man to stand up to Sir Ran but his friends preferred to say Ken was to stupid and had a death wish when it came to Ran.
"Shouldn't his Highness be studying he swordsmanship?" Sir Ran grumbled. Lady Aya skipped over to Ran taking the cape he had been using as a headrest and laid it out next to him so her dress wouldn't be stained. "Ken said he couldn't practice until they found you. We all know that no one can find you unless you want to be found." Aya said smiling as she took Ran's book and looking at the title. The Prince looked as if he was going to say something but his eye caught something more amusing. He ran past the two and tackling a young boy who was just coming out of the gardener's shad.
Ken fell on to his back with his 'prisoner' against his chest, carefully trapped by strong arms. The young boy with blond hair turning dark from the sun looked up, his blue crystal like eyes trying to meet the prince's green eyes that could be hard to find with his brown bangs being so long. "My Dear Omi, I do believe you have be avoiding me." Ken said giving the boy a hug.
"No... I.. It's just Lady Birman..." Ran cut him off "Lady Birman think a servant should do his job and not be running off to play silly games that involves kicking a ball up onto the balcony of the castle." Ken tried to glare at Ran from over Omi's head but the man had his back turned to him. "Oh let's play with the soccer!" Aya said taking the ball and standing up. "A lady shouldn't be running in the dirt." Ran quote from Lady Birman. Ken got up helping Omi to his feet. "And a Knight should be at a princess side to protect her at all times." Ken added running up and snatching the ball from Aya's hands. Ones the prince wasn't in hearing distends, Aya turned back to Ran who was brushing himself off. "You should have seen it Ran-onchan! Ken almost fell from the roof but Omi saved him!" Ran glared at the young boy.
"No one sow me." Omi protested quietly "And if they did then what?" Ran asked walking so the prince wouldn't wonder what they were doing. "What did you want me to do? Just stand there and watch as he hurts himself!" Omi know what would happen if anyone found out what he was capable of doing. The tall boy brushed his fingers through his hair before agisting the long side burns to hide his pointed ears. These were the secrets kept between the three of them. Both Aya and Ran were elives and know of their family but they were brought up secretly in a way. Aya was treated like a princess in hopes of one-day becoming Ken's bride. Ran was her guardian, sworn to protect her with his life. As children Ken and Ran were always getting into arguments and fights sometimes over nothing as boys do. Lady Birman put their energy to better uses by having the boys fence ageist one another. Any questions of why Aya would sometimes call Ran "onichan" (big brother) was that as a children she had sow him as an older brother rather then a guardian. As for Omi, he had grown up being taught how to take care of the garden. "I want to be Ken's partner this time! Omi always get to be his partner!" Aya said as she grabbed the Prince's arm. Omi must have been standing in the sun because he felt his face warm up."I don't 'always' get to be paired up with Ken!"
Moments later the four where going at it not knowing that they were being watched. From the watcher's point of view it look more like Ken and Ran we're fighting over the ball, kicking hard. While Omi and Aya were more playful and joking around. Omi always felt the only reason they need him was so Ran and Ken could have their i>who's better /i> fights without Aya getting hurt. By nightfall Ran escorted Aya back into the castle while Ken insisted on walking Omi back to his i>'house' /i>. "Omi what are you always doing in you house? I mean, when you're not working in the garden you're usually locked up in there." Ken asked while tossing the ball up into the air. "What? OH! Umm... just... studying." Omi replied. "Studying? Why don't you study with the rest of us?" Omi look at the prince but Ken was concentrating on catching the spotted ball. He wounded if Ken was serious or joking. Did the prince really not understand how different their lives where?
Omi was about to ask but sow a cloaked figure hiding in the shadows by the Hut. Omi quickly stepped in front of Ken, startling the older boy. Omi's words came out in a fast stream "Thank you for walking with me Ken but. I really don't want you to get in trouble for being out this late!" Ken was still a little startled but nodded his head "Ohh.ky.. I guess I'll see you tomorrow." Ken started walking back to the castle as Omi waved good-bye, his hand and smile dropped instantly the moment Ken was out of sight. He then walked over to the cloaked figure "I'm sorry Ante Nue, I hope you haven't been waiting to long." The figure then removed the hood of the cloak revealing a woman with short shoulder blackish blue hair and Bronze yellow eyes that Omi swore darkened the longer you stared at them. "No, not at all..." Her voice was high pitched yet sweet. "Why don't we go inside."
