The limo stopped just outside the castle doors. Stella quickly opened the door and exited.
She turned to Lightning."Light,can you please take my luggage up to my room? I must go see my mother at once."
"I will take care of it,your highness." Lightning nodded.
The blond princess nodded and sprinted toward the castle main doors. Careful not to trip over her own feet,She continued her pursuit.
"Mother!" Stella called as she reached the throne room.
The castle guards opened the two doors as Stella raced through,she stopped when she saw her Mother sitting on the throne.
"Mother!" Stella cried as she raced toward her.
The Queen was surprised to see her youngest daughter back in the castle."Stella...dear what are you doing here?"
Stella finally reached her Mother across the room. She was panting from all the running and sweaty but at the moment she didn't care.
"N-Noctis killed Father!" She finally yelled.
The Queen's eyes went wide."What?!
"H-He did it! he killed Father!" Stella couldn't stop her shrieking. Her screams were echoing through out the throne room.
The Queen quickly stood and walked over to Stella,she took her daughter by the shoulders."Stella...honey..calm down. What do you mean exactly?"
Stella quickly took a deep breath as she looked at her mother."Noctis...is a vampire! he's the reason father is dead!"
"Dear...are you sure? where is Noctis?" The queen once again questioned her daughter.
"I don't know. Me and lightning left him behind at the cabin we were staying at." Stella replied running a shaky hand through her hair.
"Cabin?" The queen frowned."You were suppose to be staying at his family's castle."
"He wanted us to be alone before we went." The princess spoke sadly.
*Knock knock*
The queen raised an eyebrow at the sudden knock at the door."Come in."
Stella turned towards the door just as it opened. Lightning quickly strode in."Please forgive my intrusion,your Majesty there is a car approaching the gates."
"A car? what kind of car?" The queen asked as she walked towards the balcony.
"A black car,your Majesty"Lightning responded as she remained kneeled.
Stella's eyes widened as she followed her mother to the balcony. She ran towards the railing, In the darkness surrounding the castle,was brightly lit car lights.
Noctis? no...it couldn't be...he would have no way to get here so fast.Her knuckles were turning white as she held onto the railing.
"Mother...you need to go to your room." Stella finally found her voice.
The queen gasped at her daughter's suggestion."Dear,I can't! I have to see what's going on."
Stella grasped onto her Mothers arms and pulled her back inside."Mother please! let me handle this."
"Stella,no...what if something happens?" The queen was terrified. She was too but she couldn't let anything happen to her Mother.
"I'll be fine! there's tons of guards. Besides...we don't even know who they are yet."
Stella turned to Lightning."Please Light...take my mother to her room and guard her!"
"Stella no!" The queen yelled.
The blond princess put her hands on her shoulders."Mother,I'll be fine.I'm tougher then I look. Please mother! I can't deal with this and worry about you. So please...I beg you...stay in your chambers until this is over."
Lighting got to her feet and gently grabbed the queen's arm."Right this way,your Majesty."
Stella sighed in relief when her Mother went the stairs."Okay...I can do this!" She placed her hands on her hips in determination.
"You really shouldn't have left Noctis in the woods. My dear."
Stella gasped at the cold monotone voice. She turned around and to see Vincent standing there.
"You...how did you get in?"
Vincent smirked and walked towards her slowly,step by step."That car you saw...was an illusion. It allowed perfect time for me to transport here."
Stella took a step back the more he got closer."W-what do you want?!"
"What I want is simple." He spoke in a cold tone."I want you."
Stella gasped as she brought her hands to her mouth. Vincent whirled around and pulled her against him.
"Let me go!" She screamed.
Vincent caressed her cheek and looked into her eyes."Hush now..." He spoke in a low voice.
He was leaning in towards her neck and deeply inhaled her."You smell so good."
Stella pounded her fist's against his chest but he still didn't budge. He flicked his tongue out and licked her neck.
"Ahhh!" Stella screamed."Stop!"
The doors to the balcony flew open and glass scattered all over the room."Let her go now!"
Stella whirled around to see Noctis standing there with 3 other men."N-Noctis!" She cried.
Vincent smirked at the Noctis who was glaring at him."I'm doing what you don't have the balls to do,Noctis."
"Let her go now!" Noctis was getting pissed,his fangs were showing.
Vincent pressed his lips against Stella's lips. She frowned and bit his lip hard.
"Ow.."He chuckled as he licked his own blood with his tongue."We'll continue this later,my sweet."
He wrapped his blood red cloak around him and flew out the balcony window.
Stella's strength gave out as she tumbled to her knees.
Noctis dashed right over to her."Stells...are you okay?"
Stella sniffed as she stared up at him,tears were running down her cheeks."Why...are you here?"
He reached out to touch her but she flinched away."Stella...I was worried about you and...I knew he was coming here."
"Y-You knew he was coming?" Stella rose to her feet to face him."So was he coming here before I decided to return home?"
Noctis was hesitating in telling her the truth. She glared at him in anger."No more lies Noctis! I'm sick of it. Especially if it puts my family in danger!"
One of the men that was with Noctis walked over and placed a hand on his shoulder."We'll go make sure everything is alright,while you two talk."
Noctis nodded back at the man."Thanks Ignis."
Stella frowned as she watched the men walk out of the room and closed the doors."And who are they?" She was near to tears."I swear...it's like...you've got this whole other life I don't know about!"
"Which is your real life?" The princess asked,crossing her arms over her chest.
Noctis ran a hand through his black hair."Stells...first of all.I did not kill your Father.I would never do that." He grabbed her hands in his.
"But...I think Vincent...might have done it." He continued,pleading to her with his deep blue eyes.
"I don't believe you." Stella whispered tearfully."How can I believe anything you say Noctis?"
"Stella please! I'm not lying to you about this." Noctis said as he gestured out the broken window.
"Vincent is the most powerful demon out there. And the king's death...he is probably the cause for it."
Stella shook her head and frowned at him."So...your family is dead?"
"Yes." Noctis whispered."They've been dead for a very long time."
"Vincent killed said I had some serious potential to be a powerful man. And he took and trained me,ever since I was 13."
"Y-You wanted this so called power?" Stella asked."Was it worth your family's lives?!"
"I let him train me so I could get my revenge one day." Noctis declared."It's what I promised my parents."
"Why did he killed my Father?" Stella whispered. Trying to sallow this tale."What did that gain him?"
"Vincent wants you to be his bride."
The words hit her like a ton of bricks all at once. She whirled around to stare at Noctis"Excuse me?"
"I thought...that if we got married then he wouldn't be able to make a claim. But I don't know anymore." Noctis slowly touched her hand."But I know I won't let him have you."
Stella slowly moved her hand away."He's...clearly powerful."
"Yeah...but I'm powerful too.I will protect you!" Noctis swore as he stared into her eyes.
Fresh tears were now falling down her looked at him slowly."Noctis...I'm scared."
He pulled her into his arms and embraced her. His hand gently combing through her blond locks."I know. But it's going to be okay.I'm right here."
Stella's strong wall of defense fell down as she was held by the dark haired prince. She buried her face into his shirt."I'm sorry I yelled at you!"
Noctis held her tighter,his arms tight around her."No...I'm sorry. You had every right to yell at me."
Stella sobbed harder as he rocked her back and forth."I swear to you.I'll protect you. I promise."
Those were the last words Stella heard before she blacked out.
A/N
I know it's been a long while since I updated this. Let's see I haven't updated this since 2013 so about two years, I apologize for that,but with a game like this in particular.I would hope you guys understand. This is one we've barely had any info on.
But things are finally starting to change. With the playable demo we get with FF Type-0,things are finally starting to turn :) We learned more of Noctis's personality and seriously...in order to right a story about a character...you need to know the basics of their personality.
Another change is I think maybe...Square Enix changed Stella's name to Luna.I don't know for sure of course...but it looks more then likely...since they look so much alike and Luna's middle and last name are nox fleuret. So either Luna is a totally new character and is related to Stella or they changed Stella's name.
If they changed her name.I might have to redo this entire story...but I really don't want to since we're now well into the story with chapter 10. So changing her name...would be so bothersome at this point. Besides ...we don't even know if they changed it. So I'm not going to change in it my story...it's too late for that lol,her name is Stella in my story.
Anyway it seems kinda pointless until we get some official confirmation from Square Enix. So here we are in chapter 10,it's a bit shorter then I would hey...this story was due for some kind of update!
Please read and review!
