The Princess and her Guardians

Chapter 5: Memories

"You are of royal bloodline..A rare bloodline as well..Ever since we were little our fates have been intertwined.."

16 years earlier...

I was sleeping soundly in my bed when my father nudged me, I opened my eyes to see my father and my mother looking over me. My mother smiled "Come on baby its time to meet some very important people.." She picks me up and I cuddle up to her. "okies mommy.."

My father leads us to the living room where I see three little boys and their parents, one blond boy hiding behind his mom, one black haired boy covered in dirt, he must have been playing around before coming here, and one red head just messing with the black haired boy. My mother sets me down and scoots me to the boys.

My father smiles. "Air this is Cloud, Zack, and Reno they are your official guardians from this day forward though for now they will just be your friends until you all are old enough to protect each other.. come on kids get to know each other you all go play."

Our parents scoot us into the play room while they speak in the living room. Zack and Reno merely ran around after each other while Cloud just sat down and looked down quietly. I grabbed some of my toys and brought them over to him. "Lets play!" Reno and Zack jumped up and down in excitement they both cheered "Play! Play!" Cloud looked at us and quietly said "ok..."

We played with my toys and then played hide and seek for a while, when our parents came in we were all laughing and smiling, even cloud. My father smiled "Come on kids time to go." We all looked so sad "No! Stay!"

My father looked at the other parents and smiled "How about the boys stay the night, after all they will do this more later why not start it now"

Clouds parents smiled "Sure after all we havnt seen him this happy with other children in a while" Zack and Renos parents nod in agreement. "Our little rascals could need some play time too."

We all cheered and played all night, my parents let us share the same room and we all went to bed peacefully, thats the first night we met and spent the night together.

4 years later (after they all met, they all are 6 now) (From Clouds perpective now)

Cloud, Zack, and Reno were all at training when Air's father called for them. "Boys! Come in here quick!"

We all ran in the house, her father looked worried. "Boys, I think something happened to my wife and air.. they should have been back from shopping hours ago, please help me search for them! Your parents are looking as well..please go.." We all looked at each other and nodded.

We took off running "Air..please be ok.." We search and search but find nothing then see these soldiers carrying what looks like a little girl and a womans dead body..the woman is airs mother so that means the girl..

Zack screams. "Hey you fuckers let them go!" We all grabbed our swords and attacked though the soldiers were a lot stronger, they slammed us to the ground and aimed their guns at our heads, we would have been dead if it wasnt for our fathers. They killed most of the soldiers but the two who were carrying air and her mother took off running. We ran after them..

I catch up to them and try to attack them but they merely threw airs mother in my way and took off in a car..I ran and ran but couldnt catch them...they took her...its all my fault..

When everyone catches up I just kneel to the ground and cry silently. "I couldnt save her..I'm pathetic.." My mother holds me tight. "No your not baby its those soldiers..bastards.." Airs father looks furious. "Dont worry boys those bastards will pay for this!"

Zack, Reno, and I stand up straight in formation and I wipe my eyes. "Let us help, it is our duty as her guardians to protect and serve her at all cost!" Her father tries to smile. "I'll keep your word in that boys."

(Thats the end of this chapter people haha sorry if its a little short il try to make them longer soon.)
