That night, the one before the ceremony while everyone had seemed to be asleep, the young princess of Hirashi was awake. Niame had no reason to sleep she didn't ever sleep much. So she decided that she would investigate the castle, her father, Vanitas, had already told her to do so and now was the perfect time. Quickly and quietly she got past the door of her room and was walking up the hall. Her foot steps were only a soft tap on the tiles, barely enough to be heard. Niame looked around this looks like the direction Roxas had went to his room. She continued walking in the direction of his room.
Soon Niame had come to a cross where the hall had split into three directions and none pointed a clue to leading to Roxas's room. Her intuition told her to take the second and middle most route, which she did. She wandered around the halls of the castle counting the rooms she passed. Methodically taking measures as to not get lost. Although she made sure not to get lost she had no idea how long she had been walking, she really has no sense of time. In reality she had been out for half an hour which to her felt like a few minutes.
Within the next few minutes of her walking she had walked close to a room which had someone talking inside it. Her hearing was great so she only had to lean against the wall next to the door to hear the conversation. "I don't trust them here, honestly. That King has the look of always causing trouble and being no good." She could only judge the voice as not being Roxas. "Well I he does look pretty shady, I'll give you that." This voice now was older. Niame made sure she remained silent as the conversation continued. "What feeling to do you from his children?" This was the older one this time. "Well the boy, Sora, seems way to care free. Too ignorant and child like," Niame smirked a bit, they hit how Sora was easily, "And the girl... I actually don't know. She too aloof and careful with herself to let anything slip." The older voice laughed, "Now I find that suspicious if you ask me." "Well no one asked." Niame began to walk away as a thump was heard possibly one being pushed to the floor.
Niame heard what she needed, Sora was the one they didn't even worry about seeing him as a kid. She herself would have to think, they found her suspicious which wouldn't work. Niame went back on the path heading back to her room. All seemed calm and quiet as she walked back.
Niame was near her room door when she heard, "Hey! What are you doing?" Before she turned to look she could tell it was one of the voices she was hearing earlier. So she turned and did her best to see scared, "G-going into my father's room..." The boy was a guard of snow white hair, if she remembered correctly his name was Xilsu. "Why would you need to do that?" She backed away slightly as he walked closer, defensive and suspicious of her. "I-i tend to get scared in a room alone in new places." She looked down and slowly moved toward her father's door. Xilsu's eyes narrowed and silently Niame tapped on her father's door. Xilsu moved closer to Niame, "I'll be watching you-." Suddenly the for opened and Vanitas walked out, "Now was that an open threat to my precious daughter?" He hugged Niame to him and game Xilsu and cocky grin, "It would be terrible if I was to take offence to that statement now, huh?" Xilsu was surprised and nodded, "T-terribly sorry, sir." Xilsu bowed his head some and began to walk away. He hated he had to go so low as to apologize to someone like him. Niame smirked once Xilsu's back was turned, she had a perfect idea and she might just be able to use him for it. Once Xilsu was gone Niame and Vanitas said good night and both went into their rooms for the rest of the night.
