Here I am, running around the village looking for Princess Rin… I'm surprised she can run that fast, I lost sight of her in a fraction of a second. I panted and continued to run around remembering what just happened…
~~Flashback~~
We arrived at the Kingdom of Gold and the carriage slowly stopped. I climbed down the carriage and helped the Princess down. She smiled gratefully at me and walked ahead of me.
I closed the door to the carriage. "Please stay close to me-," I said while turning around and found that she was already running ahead of me. "Princess Rin!" I yelled and quickly ran after her. But surprisingly, the Princess was a lot faster than I thought, because I lost sight of her in a blink of an eye. But I guess I should just run around looking for her, so I kept running, looking around for her.
~~End of Flashback~~
I think I ran for a whole 30 minutes already… despite my legs hurting, I still ran looking around for her…
'I should have looked out for her more…' I thought as I ran faster.
Suddenly, I saw Princess Rin at looking around for something. She looked as if she was going to cry. I quickly ran towards her. "Princess Rin!" I yelled. She looked towards me and she immediately ran to me and attacked me with a hug that had me fall back. She was crying a bit and I was panting.
"What's wrong, Princess?"
"I-I thought I lost you…" she said, sniffling a bit.
I sighed and stroked her hair. She looked up at me. "I told you I won't if you don't wish it, Princess…" I said smiling at her. She returned my smile and hugged me. I fought back a blush that was once again threatening to color my face. She let go of me and stood up. I also stood up after she did.
"Where shall we go first, Princess?" I asked
"I don't know… I think we should just go to the castle first…"
I smiled and guided her towards the castle.
~~Halfway to the castle~~
We were walking in silence when suddenly a red haired boy bumped into the Princess. He looked up to us. He also had the same red for eyes. The boy couldn't be more than 9 years old. But he, surprisingly, had such a small body…
"There he is! Get him!" I looked straight ahead and saw that there were four boys chasing after him. One of them walked in front of us and roughly grabbed the boy.
"What do you think you're doing?" Princess Rin said grabbing the boy from the man. She put the boy on the ground and smiled at the terrified boy. "Are you okay, boy?" she asked him sweetly.
Before the boy could answer, he was once again roughly grabbed by the same boy. "I'm just grabbing this theif… he stole a bread from my father…" He said swinging the poor boy around. Princess Rin was now angered by his attitude, I could see it clearly from her face. Princess Rin stood up and grabbed the boy again, but this time she held onto him.
"What gave you the right to grab the boy like that?" she asked
"Just give the boy to us and we won't hurt you, girl…" the boy said
"I would not hand him over as I know that you would hurt him if I do…" she said confidently. "Why you…" the boy said and attempted to hit her, as he had raised his hand, but I was faster.
I quickly stood in front of the Princess and had kicked the boy in the stomach. He fell down coughing. His friends that was just staring had now attempted to attack me, I quickly jumped and did a jumping side kick to one of the boys. By now, there was a crowd of people staring at us, whispering something…
'Two down, two to go…' I thought. The third boy had launched at me, attempting to punch me in the face, but I ducked and did a swiping kick, resulting him falling on his side. The fourth one sneaked to my back and had tried to get me from behind but I stood up and quickly moved behind him and did a perfect roundhouse kick to the back of his head. He instantly fell unconscious. I stood there and breathed normally, seeing as these boys aren't as strong as they seem to be. The crowd around us started clapping after a moment of silence.
I sighed and turned to the Princess. She was smiling her usual smile, with the boy still in her hands. I smiled back at her. Suddenly, the claps died and everyone gasp. I turned around and saw that the Prince of Gold, Prince Rinto was walking towards us with bodyguards at either side of him, also with a huge frown on his face. He stopped in front of the four boy and sighed.
"I am disappointed in you four… I let you go last time, but this time I won't be nice to you…" he shook his head.
"B-But Prince! We j-just wanted to c-capture that brat!" one of them exclaimed and pointed at the boy in Princess Rin's hand. "And the girl and boy was in the way!" he added. The Prince frowned more and slapped his face. The boy was surprised at Prince Rinto's act.
"You have made three crimes out of this; one is trying to capture a boy that did nothing more than taking a piece of bread… I have told you that I will let him take as much bread as he wants and yet you still chased him, which makes you disobeying my orders. Your third crime was trying to hurt the Princess of Yellow…" Prince Rinto said, beckoning Princess Rin and myself to come closer, which we did. The boys was surprised when Prince Rinto had said that Princess Rin was the Princess of Yellow.
"Your punishment will be decided by the Princess of Yellow…" Prince Rinto said, turning to her with a smile. Princess Rin just stared at the boy and smiled. "His punishment will be…" she stopped there but she was still smiling. Prince Rinto waited for her answer but I already know what her answer will be. She looked at me.
"He will not be punished with a punishment of any kind… he is only to vow that he would not do anything such as this again…" I answered for her.
Prince Rinto looked at me with confusion "The Princess is to deci-," he was cut by Princess "That is all you have to do as I wouldn't want anyone to get hurt…" she said as she put the boy down. Prince Rinto stared at the Princess.
"Are you sure of this?" he asked. Princess Rin looked up to him with her usual smile and simply nodded. Prince Rinto smiled and nodded as he understood. "Men, bring these boys to the castle to vow…" he said and the bodyguards instantly lifted the boys and headed towards the castle. Prince Rinto once again turned towards us and bowed.
"I am very sorry for my people's act towards you… they simply didn't recognize you and acted bluntly…" he said with a sad voice and his head down. Princess Rin smiled.
"It is okay… they must have regretted what they did and will change after this…" she said. Prince Rinto looked up and smiled. "As rumored, you are a very kind Princess…" he said "And as rumored you are a very strict Prince…" Princess Rin countered. They laughed together. Rin beckoned me to step forwards.
"This is Len, my personal butler…" Princess Rin said as I stop next to her. I smiled at him and bowed. "He seems to be very talented in martial arts, to be able to defeat four boys in under 10 minutes…" Prince Rinto said smiling at him. "What is your full name, butler of the Princess of Yellow?" he asked me. I smiled once again and bowed "My name is Akita Len, Your Highness…" I answered him. He nodded a few times before turning around.
"Let us go to the castle now, shall we?" he said, his back facing us and he started walking. I looked at Princess Rin and she just smiled at me and started following the Prince. I sighed again and followed them, staying closely behind the Princess.
The feeling of something surprising might happen didn't leave me for even a second… but I simply shrugged it off, again…
Ahhhh… now that's done with! So~ how was it? I kinda added a little taek won do kicks in this… okay maybe not a little but I couldn't resist the temptation to write it out! I really wanted to update this faster but I was busy… plus, my mom doesn't let me touch my laptop in weekdays… so I guess you'll have to wait for an update tomorrow or next weekend… I don't know yet…
So… since I'm finished with my little rant…
