It was a nice and peaceful day throughout the kingdom of Parro, except in the palace. We see the man from the last chapter burst through a door with an angered expression on his face. While he stormed off, he passed by the kingdom's twins. One was an young boy who is 14 with short platinum blonde hair and purple eyes , his name was Remus. The other one had long platinum blonde hair and purple eyes, her name was Rinda. At any rate, they were disappointed to see the man leaving after only one day.

"Prince Ryu, you're leaving so soon?" Remus asked worriedly. He then stops to see a hole torn in the back of Ryu's pants revealing his boxers.

"Good luck with marrying that girl off." was all Ryu said to Remus. It didn't take long for the twins to put the pieces together.

"Sayori!"

They stormed out of the room and into the castle's garden. Sitting by a fountain was a beautiful girl who is 19 with long brown hair, brown eyes, and a white cold shoulder dress trailing down to her ankles and the sleeves went past her hands slightly. She is Remus and Rinda's adopted older sister and heir, Sayori.

"Sayori! Sayori, we must have a word with you!" Rinda scolded. She never got to her though because a tiger stood in their way. It also held some dark cloth in its hands.

"Rajah! What is that? Give it to me." Rinda and the tiger named Rajah fought over the cloth until Rinfa won. When she got a good look at it, she saw it was the missing portion of Ryu's pants.

"So THIS is why Ryu left so angrily." Rinda said, madder than before.

"Oh Rinda, Rajah was just playing with that man, that's all." said Sayori. With that Rajah walked over to Sayori. He placed his head on Sayori lap as if he were a dog. "Isn't that right, you were just playing with that jerk." Sayori said to Rajah playfully.

Rajah laughed with Sayori.

Sayori looked up from Rajah to see her siblings' annoyed look. "Sayori, you cannot keep turning down every suitor that comes. The law states that…" as if on cue Sayori spoke the same words Remus did. This had to be the millionth time they've been on this topic.

"You must be married to a prince." they both said.

"By your next birthday." Rinda added.

"The law is wrong." Sayori said sourfully.

"There are only a few more days." Indeed her siblings were right. Sayori's 20th birthday was only a few days off. If she was not to be married by that date, the kingdom would go crazy.

Sayori went over to a small bird cage and pulled a dove out of it and began to pet it affectionately. "Guys, I hate being forced into this. If I do get married, I want it to be for love, not because it's mandatory."

"Sayori," Rinda said as she took the dove and put it back in the cage, "it's not just the law. Mother and Father are not going to be around forever, and they want to make sure someone will take care of you when that time comes."

"Please try to understand, I've never been outside of the castle ever since I came to live here. I don't even have friends anymore." Sayori protested.

Rajah looked up at Sayori, thinking what Sayori said meant he wasn't her friend.

"Except for you Rajah." Sayori said. This helped Rajah relax.

"I've never even been outside the palace's walls." Sayori added.

"But Sayori, you're the princess, and we can't fill in the position since we're not old enough." Remus said.

"Well find someone else, because I don't want to be a princess anymore." said Sayori angrily.

This got to the twins and only made things worse. Before leaving, Remus looked at Rajah. "Remind me to never have any daughters."

Rajah was confused by what he meant and looked towards the reader for a source of understanding. After they left, Sayori went over to the cage and released all the doves in it. She watched as they flew over the palace wall to live freely. That is something Sayori wished to do.

Back with the twins, they had gone to a miniature model of Parro. Once there, they showed how depressed he was. "I don't know where she gets it. Mother and father were never so picky when they got married." Rinda said.

As they played with their model, a sinister shadow loomed over them. When they noticed this, they gasped in shock, but then calmed down when they saw the shadow's owner. "Oh, Prince Naris, our trusted friend, we are in great need of your assistance."

Naris happens to be none other than the dark man in chapter 1. However his outfit has changed to royal clothing. On his side was Astrias. "Of course, Rinda and Remus, my life is to help you in your hour of need. What's the problem you need me to address?"

"It's this suitor business. Sayori won't choose a husband, and Mother and Father at their wits end." Remus said. "That is a problem." Astraias said which got the twins attention. "Ah, I see you brought Astraias with you. " said Rinda. Raleigh bowed down to the twins. "Oh you two, you certainly have a way with dumb guards." Naris said amused with the situation. Astraias glared at Naris for calling him dumb as he stood up straight. Naris then returned to his conversation with the twins. "I do believe I have a solution for this problem, but I will require both of your family ring, Rinda, Remus."

"The Rings?" asked Remus. "We couldn't just give it away. It's been in the family for years."

Naris didn't argue, rather he held a mystical staff before their face. "Do not worry." As Naris spoke, the staff glowed red. Naris then spoke more darkly, "Everything will be fine."

Their expression went blank as Naris put them in a trance. They then repeated Naris's words without emotion, "Everything…will be…fine."

"The Rings?" demanded Naris.

"Yes…whatever you need…will be fine." Rinda said as they handed their rings to Naris, who took it hastily.

"Thank you, my liege, you are too kind. Now run along and play with your toys." said Naris.

"Yes…that would be…nice." Remus said as he and Rinda went off to do just that.

As Naris was leaving, he looked back to make sure no one was there. When he was sure he was alone, he lost the nice guy act. Astrias started to complain. "That's it. If I kiss up to those brats again…Bam! Pow! Right in the kisser!"

The two entered a room in the palace and Naris pulled a lever, opening a secret door that leads to his and Astrias's secret lair. "Calm yourself Astrias. Soon I'll be king, and not their parents."

Raleigh liked where this was going. "Yeah. Then I'll make them kiss up to me. HA HA!"

The two approached another door which Naris opened and slammed behind him, keeping us from seeing what's in the next room.

That night, Sayori made her way through the garden and to a tree that was next to the palace wall. This was her escape, her chance to see life outside of the palace, see the rest of Parro. As she prepared to climb she felt her brown cloak be pulled slightly. She looked down to see none other than Rajah.

Rajah pulled her cloak, telling her not to leave.

"I'm sorry Rajah, but I can't just be told how to live my life." Sayori told him.

Rajah was still sad, but wanted to help Julie anyway possible. To help, Rajah gave her a boost up to the wall. Sayori knew what he was doing and got in him as she raised herself to the top of the wall to leave. As Sayori got over the wall, she looked back to him to see a sad Rajah. "Goodbye." Sayori said sadly as she climbed down the wall and out of the palace.
