Title: The Descendant of the Weller
Chapter 3: A crazy prank
Sigh. It was all Lily could do when she stood at the front door of her house. This afternoon picnic had actually got her feelings and past memory. Her face is still red from the crying she did. If her parents ask her, it'll just make her feelings worse. So Lily just stands there till her mother opens the door and finds her.
Lisa's first reaction was shock. However, she recovers quickly and usher Lily in and question her "Why are you standing in front of the door like a stranger? And…your face is a little bit of red in colour…are you crying?" asks Lisa in a gentle voice.
"No! I'm…not!" Lily mumbles. She looks up and sees her mother stare at her with an unconvincing look. So Lily quickly changes the subject. "Where is dad? Are he back yet!?" she asks cheerily. Please answer me and stop staring at me like that, Lily thought with a sparkle in her eyes.
"Your dad had gone to meet an old friend, so it's just me and you tonight!" her mother says. "So…dinner will be ready soon" Lisa says again and watch her daughter with an assuring smile.
"Oh…okay!!! I'll go take a shower…." Lily mumbles again. She quickly runs upstairs and straight to her bedroom. In there, she sees a letter on her table. "Okay…so the letter from that little brat prince had finally arrives!!!" She grabs the letter and read it
Dear Lily,
I've ran back safely to the castle and as usual Joseph was fooled by me. By the way, are you busy tomorrow? If you're not, meet me at the garden of the Blood Pledge castle. I'll wait for you.
P.S: I've planned 'something' for you!!!
Your little dream prince,
Ueki Shibuya
Lily folds the letter into two before saying "He had 'something' planned for me? Surely it'll never be a good thing…" she sighs as she talks. Lily smirks as she remember how Ueki reminds her that he's her little dream prince every time she calls him by his pet name. When Lisa calls her, Lily puts down the letter and dash out of her room. As she settles down to eat, Lily was shock to see her mother look pale and tired. Worry about her mother, she asks with a careful tone "Mum…"
Lisa gasps for a minute and look at Lily with a smile. "What is it?" Her smile wavers as Lily next question was brought up.
"What happen to the Weller after the defeat of Sousho?" Lily asks while chewing on her roast beef. Sure she had learns about her father's side of family through the history book but she wants to know more about it from her mother. Asking directly from her father will sure surprise him.
"Well…your great, great grandfather, Conrad Weller, had been a great fighter and a loyal protector to the Maou for few hundred years. After the defeat of Sousho, rumours said that he and the Maou of that time went to the earth and he met a young demon girl…they got married after knowing each other.
They both went back here and lead a happy life. But he died tragically after your father turns seven…."Lisa stops at there.
"So…are there anymore thing about it?" Lily continues as she didn't notice the difference in her mother's voice. She was too busy trying to cut the fat out of the roast beef. It was sure a pretty hilarious sight but Lisa knows better.
Lisa was about to continues but the sound of the door opening catch her attention. She turns around and sees George. "Hello, everyone!" the man enters the room. "That old friend of mine decides to cancel our meeting after a brief moment! So…here I am! Are there any leftover for me?" George beams hopefully. Lily laughs at his act. George chuckles at his own act too.
The night passes on….

The next morning…
Lily, in a violet dress, stands near the fountain at the garden of the Blood Pledge castle. She is waiting for Ueki, but it's been ½ an hour and the young prince hadn't shown up. Lily grumbles "It's not like Ueki to be late…" A few minutes later, she sees Lord Von Christ passing nearby. "Joseph! Had you seen Ueki?" she asks without coming across as being impolite.
Lord Von Christ halts and answers "Heika says that he'll be resting at the west side of the garden as he's not well" Lord Von Christ later asks "Is there anything that I can assist you in…Miss Lily?"
"Oh! Thank you, nothing more! And Joseph…if you don't mind, I'll keep on sending you the garlic soup? It'll fill you up as you seem to never have a proper meal lately" Lily says slowly. He really needs it! With all that endless activities he's on!!! Lily shrugs at that thought.
Lord Von Christ seems to be taken aback but he nods willingly and smiles gratefully. "Why yes, Miss Lily? Thank you!" He gives a low bow before leaving. As he walks, he halts again and faces the young girl saying "You know…people are right about one thing of the Weller? They're all kind and nice to the others!!!" Lord Von Christ smirks at his remarks and walk again.
Lily can't help but blush at the man's comment about her family. Are they all really kind and nice to the others? Maybe, but grandfather didn't convince me at all!!! Lily shook her head and continues searching for Ueki. As she walks to the west garden, she sees a figure lying on the ground. Lily gets closer and was shock to finds it's Ueki. She run fast to him and shouts "Ueki…Ueki! Wake up and answer me!!! Ueki…" She grabs hold of Ueki's body and turns him around as his face is facing the ground. When she did, she was stuns in disbelief. Ueki's face was mash and his front part of his body was scars. "Aaaahhhh……"she screams loudly. Her world seems to have freeze. Suddenly she feels a pat on her back. Still in shock, Lily punches whoever is touching her.
"Ouch! Calm down will, you?" a familiar voice cried out.
Lily opens her eyes and sees Ueki, still in perfect condition, standing at her side grinning. Anger flashes through her and Lily springs up, she shrieks like a madman and blowing out punches at Ueki. "Don't you ever scare me like that again?" When she stops, Lily glares at the young prince with an angry look. "You think it is funny?" Lily shouts again. Her anger rose as Ueki laughter grows louder.
Ueki stiff his laughter and says as calmly as he can. "Chill, Lily! I think that this will awaken your inner 'child' as you seem down yesterday!" He laughs again. But he stops completely as Lily's expression grow serious.
"It pains me to see that you're hurt…don't you know?" Lily says softly. Her tone is no longer serious but sad and somewhat hurt. "You're the prince and if you die…what is going to happen?" Lily cried out.
Ueki feels guilty at this, so he holds Lily tightly. "I'm sorry…I didn't mean to scares you like that!" He then releases her and looks at the young girl. Lily's brown hair and eyes are captivating under the sunlight. The contrast of the violet dress and her hair and eye colour had make Lily looks like an angel despite her age. Ueki feels like giving her a kiss but he quickly brushes that thought off. Damn it!!! My hormones are taking over. Is this what happens once you turns 16? Ueki curses himself inwardly.
"So why do you call me here?" asks Lily after regaining herself.
