Title: I'll get even
Chapter 13: I don't like romance
-x- 7 years ago -
"Pappy! I'm bored! Why did you force me to come along with you?" The bratty prince asks his father.
His dad signed before taking a deep breath then started explaining the reason why they were currently at a rivaling country.
"Because you're 16 years old now and your duties as a great prince is to follow the king's orders and I am the king so do what I say without any questions."
Prince Harry huffed in frustration before taking another look out of their carriage's window.
Harry was getting sick and tired of only seeing the same scene of trees and wild animals . Being the spoiled brat he is, he wasn't used to being patient or being scolded by his beloved daddy.
Prince Harry's lips quenched up into a frightful expression when he caught a small glance of a huge bear.
The bear could be described as a full on beast or even a monster rather than an actual animal. But what truly attracted his attention was a young girl with purple hair who couldn't be less than 12 years old was having a standoff with the creature.
Before he could breathe out a single word,trying to inform his father about how much danger that young girl was in, he stopped himself when he saw a sword in the girl's small hands . She withdrew a longsword that looked far too big for her to be wielding and then started making powerful slashing motions while dodging from the bear's attempts to claw her. The fight between the beauty and the beast only lasted for a minute but it felt like hours had gone by instead. Both the girl and bear we're panting really hard when they reached the climax of their battle. Rinka noticed the bear was distracted for less than a second so she took that chance. With one quick slash with her freshly sharpened blade the once a rampaging bear was nothing more than dead meat.
Prince Harry wouldn't believe it if he hadn't seen it with his own 2 eyes, that girl took down a scary beast that was probably 10 times her size.
"yahoo!...I can't wait to brag to everyone that I just took down one of the most dangerous animals in the freakin entire forest, "Rinka excitedly shouted.
"Pappy!... d-did you just saw that?"the shocked prince asked his father.
"Seen what my son? He asked, not having a slightest clue on what his son was talking about.
The prince stuttered a bit before he could collect his composer . "A-a girl… she just took down that huge bear over there." The prince pointed his finger to where the girl was standing.
The king looked at his son if he had just grown three heads.
"What girl and what bear? You're just pointing at some trees."
The prince turned his head and to his disappointment the mystery girl and the bear she defeated was nowhere to be found. "I swear there was a girl who had single handedly killed the biggest bear I have ever seen in my life."
His dad snorted, "Stop making up such ridiculous stories,your mind is just playing tricks on you."
It wasn't until much later when they finally arrived at the palace front gates and where the father and son duo were greeted by the king's many assistants and maids after stepping out of their fancy carriage. Prince Harry decided to go on some exploring on his own,so he ditched his dad and his bodyguards to look around all by himself.
First he visited the courtyard to where he saw multiple statues. Prince Harry quickly got bored and a little hungry from looking at one particular statue that was molded into a rooster.
"Oi Rinka,no way in hell you actually killed that huge thing all by yourself.?"the head cook for the royal family exclaimed in pure disbelief. "Steven,you should already know by now that I am not some dumb average kid, with all of the intense and deadly training Phyllis had put me through. It's safe to assume I am a whole lot stronger than I look . Now can you help me cook up this bear or not?" Rinka asks while holding up the dead beast to Steven.
"Finally...I found the dinner room. You peasant over there,bring me a snack right this instant ! "Prince Harry demanded one of the many cooks in the kitchen.
"Bye Steven, thank you for cooking for me."Rinka thanked him while walking out of the huge kitchen that almost took up the whole room.
"It's her... the same girl from the forest. Damn she is a lot more beautiful up close,"Prince Harry mutters quietly under his breath.
Rinka signed,allowing the corner of her mouth to curl into a smile,trying to seem happy to see the not so good-looking or rather quite ugly prince.
Prince Harry turned a bright shade of red and took a few steps back when Rinka spared him a short glance.
"Who is she...I-I must know her name." Harry whispers into one of the servant's ears.
"She is the adopted daughter of the former head commander's knight military forces and a talented swordsman and herbalist as well. I'm pretty sure her name is Rinka."
"Rinka,what a lovely name for my future wife."he mumbled softly under his breath with hearts in his eyes.
In the blink of an eye his future wife suddenly disappeared without a trace.
The prince almost lost all hope when he began his search for the love of his life for about 2 hours ago. He sat down onto a tree stump and started pouting. He looked up to the blue sky then back down which he only saw nothing but a field of grass and a sleeping girl. "Wait..sleeping girl?!"Harry exclaimed with a hopeful gleam in his eyes.
"Damn narcolepsy"Rinka groans as she wiped the grass off her pale cheeks.
"You there,become my wife!"Prince Harry shouted expecting he would hear the words "I do."
Rinka gave him a fake smile then started scratching the back of her head,not wanting to deal with these types of situations.
"I'm flattered. But I'm not even a teenager yet and a high status prince as yourself would ever want me as your wife." She started walking the opposite direction from where the prince was standing.
Prince Harry clenches his fist tightly, not taking rejection well as he should be.
"That wasn't a question,you're going to be my wife if you like it or not."
Before he could even grab Rinka by her scrawny wrist, she swissly jumped then did not 1 but 3 backflips while still in the air. Then after she lost her momentum she held out one leg and landed a hard kick right on Prince Harry's now bloody face.
"Prince Harry,there you are!"Harry's bodyguards shouted in relief.
"Guards,capture her immediately!"Harry demanded while pointing at the already pissed off Rinka.
She withdrew her sword from its scabbard and started to slash one bodyguard after another, but one greatly well built bodyguard managed to restrain her by the arms.
She writhed, sinking to the ground from the pain in her arms,and looked up at the tall and muscular man who was so proud of himself for taking down a freakin 12 years old girl who was one fifth of his size. "I got you. Now be a good little girl and come with me."he muttered.
"Let me go!"Rinka yelled, fighting against the huge man even though he didn't budge a bit from her attacks. "Let me go! You have no right to do this! Let me go!"
"Prince Harry, we got her!" the large man shouted, "Oi kid! Stop resisting! You're going to hurt yourself!"
"You're the one who's going to get hurt! Let me go!" Rinka retorted then bit the man as hard as she could.
The man made a loud yelp of pain from being bit so hard to the point his hand started gushing out blood. Rinka landed on the ground on her hands and knees,panting. Without looking back she ran fast as she could hoping she could outrun the bratty Prince and his army of bodyguards.
"Help me! People are trying to kidnap me!" Rinka shouted to some old guy with a thick mustache. "Pappy ,arrested that girl right this instant! She had struck my beautiful and handsome face. "Prince Harry demanded of his father.
"Guards,put her into custody! The king ordered his bodyguards.
"That stupid bitch had rudely refuse my marriage proposal and if that wasn't bad enough,she had kick me after I was simply picking some flowers for her."Prince Harry lied with the most wicked grin Rinka had ever seen before in her short life.
"He's lying! The real reason why I kicked him was because he was trying to grab me!"she defended. "Nonsense! My son would never do such a barbaric thing."The king replied with a loud snort. Just as hope seems to be all lost, Rinka's teary eyes manage to spot her mother and the queen of the Vernal Kingdom were together.
"Phyllis, I need help!" she cried out.
Phyllis and the queen's heart sank down to the bottom of their stomachs when they saw Rinka crying and was being pinned down by 5 heavily built and armed men.
Without a second thought, Phyllis' motherly instincts kick in by knocking out all 5 of the men who were hurting her child with a single punch.
"King Noah! You better have a good reason for harming the former head commander's and my best friend's daughter."the queen of Vernal kingdom shouted with cross arms. "Queen Marie, I can explain. That girl over their attack my beloved son for no good reason."King Noah exclaimed as he pointed at the purple hair swordswoman.
"That's not true,your son tried to grab me just because I didn't want to be his wife!"Rinka replied with gritted teeth.
Everyone, mostlyRinka was shocked when they all saw Queen Marie slapped both the king and his son right on their fat cheeks. "You 2 should be ashamed of yourself,pressuring such a little girl into marriage. And second when she politely denies the offer you gang up and attack her. When I tell my husband about this I am pretty sure he is willing to go to war because of this little incident. But since I'm feeling a little generous today ,I will forget this little problem has ever happened if you 2 go on your knees and beg for Rinka's forgiveness!"

"Wait,the queen was willing to go to war if the King and his son didn't beg for your forgiveness?"Law asks with a light chuckle. Rinka uses one of her hands to cover her grinning mouth "Yeah,you shoulda see the look on their faces." Law suddenly grabbed a hold of the same arm she was using to cover her mouth. It had a similar shape or symbol ,like if he saw it before but can't put his finger on it. "I've been wondering,how did you get this mark on your arm ...right here?Law asks while pointing at the strange symbol.
"It doesn't look like a tattoo or anything like that and trust me I know what a tattoo is supposed to look like."Law said with a smirk.
Rinka giggles a little too loudly, not liking the uncomfortable skin contact she is getting from Law. "Oh,that little old thing. It's just a weird birthmark, nothing special or anything like that." Law was a little suspicious by Rinka's answer since the mark looked a little too perfect to just be an ordinary birthmark.
Before Law could ask more questions about her abnormal birthmark he heard Rinka's voice. "Here." Rinka said ahead of him, and he looked up to see a clothing store, The windows were devoid of frost, indicating that the inside was a much warmer temperature. The store owner,a woman in her late thirties with thick glasses, a high ponytail, and a friendly smile, greeted them at their entrance .
"Welcome to Bella Boutique. How may I help you?" Law glimpse around the little shop.
"She needs better clothing for cold temperatures ." He simply stated like it's the most obvious thing.
The middle aged woman looked over the relatively tall and slender woman, measuring Rinka's body proportions in her head, and hurried off to find clothes that would fit her skinny but also very curvy figure. The store clerk lightly tug Rinka by the back of her hoodie, showing her to the dressing room.
Law sat down on a wooden chair nearby,waiting for Rinka to be suited.
She emerged wearing a light purple jacket with a faux fur trim around the hood. She didn't like her reflection in the mirror.
"Mmm...nah" She said, shaking her head behind the door. The next coat was a tacky shade of neon yellow. When she first laid eyes on the ugly jacket she immediately shook her head signaling she didn't like it.
After trying on all sources of different types of clothing,Rinka chose a plain red padded overcoat with a fuzzy hood. It fit like a glove, and Rinka loved how she looked in the mirror. "I love it!"Rinka said happily, doing another twirl in the mirror.
"We need boots as well."He told the store clerk. The middle aged woman gave him a light nod and guided them towards the shoes section.
Her decision came much quicker, her eyes beholding the black combat-style snow boots in her hands.
"Thank you so much for helping me."Rinka said to the shop owner with a wink.
"So pretty..." The lady thought to herself while blushing and her eyes suddenly turned into hearts. "It-it wasn't a problem at all, since you were such a great customer I'll give you a 50% discount for your entire purchase."
Law only smirks, now he doesn't have to pay so much for her new clothes.
"Thank you, by the way."Rinka mumbled, and Law's facial expression remained his cool and smug face.
Law responded with his classic smirk "I should really be thanking you, if it wasn't for your good looks then I would have probably paid full price for your new clothes."
"What can I say, no one can resist my charm."Rinka jokily said with a wink.
Law only smirks at her comment. "Be careful where you use that pretty face of yours, it could attract unwanted attention."
"Ptt… like that would ever happen!' she retorted.
Law walked in front of Rinka, before Rinka could react from Law's sudden movements.
He didn't need to look down at the purple hair swordswoman since she was only a few inches shorter than him. Law put his thumb and index finger on Rinka's cheeks then slowly licked his thin lips. "Like I stated...you can attract unwanted attention."
Rinka was blushing either from Law's comment or the way his hand was gently touching her face.
