Buttercup's POV

I felt no pain, I really didn't. I had to hold Sam and Sammie back, and myself as well...my magic and my fists were itching to punch that stupid Bitch...but no way...I know what would happened...she could have me arrested or sold off...who knows...and nothing is worst then being away from my friends and family...or losing my chance of real freedom. Blossom had about five tick marks and Brianna was glowing dark energy.

"How dare she? This is the ultimate injustice! If I wasn't a Healing Maiden, I...I would give them the plague!" Blossom looked at my cheek, "Quite a bruise, but...Oh Buttercup, I'm so sorry, to be related to such a family."

"Oh no, the plague is too good for them, I'm gonna have to think of a good, curse...maybe a flesh rotting curse...damn but the ingredients are expensive."

"Guys, calm down." I told them, and I must have suprised them, "They're not worth the trouble," I smiled a little at the twins, who hugged me, "Listen, Blossom, you can go and take the twins inside. Lady Morbucks can't order you...and she didn't say anything about them."

"No, I can't, this isn't right." Blossom argued and the twins hugged me tighter, "Plus, you can't leave me alone with them."

"Why don't you two go to the Circus? Go on." I tried to push them along but they shook their heads.

"No, we wanna go with BB." They shook their heads.

"Princess." A man's voice cried out, and suddenly, there he was, the guy that made Brianna blushed, "Oh Princess, I'm glad you came. I was so worried and I missed you." He bear hugged her, wrapping him cross to his body. I gotta admit, he looked more like a gypsy, than a Duke, maybe he's in disguise.

"Hey let go of me!" Brianna screamed, trying to push away as the twins were looking at her, she suddenly paused in complete horror/fury. I covered the twins' eyes, he was grabbing her butt.

He sighed in relief, "Oh man, you've no idea how much I missed that."

"YOU PERVERT!" She slammed him good but he just turned back around to face her.

"I missed that too." He sighed again.

"Blitz, are you crazy? She smacked the living far out of you." This man with the same colored hair as Blossom came along, and Blossom just went crazy. He was wearing a red loose shirt, black pants, a red cap (that I never seen before) and brown riding boots.

"It's...You." Blossom had hearts in her eyes and hovering over her head, "My Knight is Bloody Armor!"

"Oh dear God, it's you." He cried out as Blossom ran over to hug him, I think he was trying to run off, but Blossom had him in that famous grip of hers.

"Good Morning, Tiger."

My heart was hammering out of control, as I knew that voice anywhere, I turned to see...

"Oh hey there Butch," I said, it felt a little uncomfortable saying his first name like this, but It was better than Titles. Sam and Sammie giggled as he grabbed my hand and kissed it, but I snatched it away just after the kiss, "What are you doing here? Oh wait...that's right, Prince Beast."

Sam and Sammie hid right behind me as Butch looked down at them, he waved at them but Sammie did something extraordinary...for the first time, she stood right in front of me and waved back. Butch kneeled down in front of her.

"My, aren't you just pretty? I see beauty runs in the family. A pretty older sister and now...a little cutie like you." He patted her on the head and Sam jumped up, eager for attention, "And who is this handsome guy?"

"These are the twins, Sam...and Samantha but we call her Sammie. How did you know they were my brother and sister?"

"Well...they're probably about 4 or 5...and you maybe 16 or 17...so...I'm sure...but if they were yours...you're family wouldn't let you keep them...Or bring them out in public, as Noble families would do. Plus, you...you look like you've got common sense...and well...you don't seem to me like the type who would...do something like that...ya know."He was blushing as badly as I was...but I figured it out, I'm not the type of girl to 'give it up'.

"Thanks...I guess."

Fang hissed at him and he flicked him on the nose.

"I remember you, you demon griffin." He said, I punched him on the arm.

"Prince or not, no one hits my little guy." I smiled, but winced a little at the pain. He noticed and touched my cheek.

"What happened? Your Face?" He looked really worried.

"It's nothing, Sire-"

"Butch."

"Oh Butch, It was an accident."

"Doesn't look like an accident to me? I must know, please. If there's anything I could do...or if someone hurt you..." He looked at me with those pleading eyes.

"Well...Butch, like I said... "His eyes flashed with anger, which...I kinda...liked. Why was his anger...Oh damn...he's not bad looking angry, he could...scare me...sometimes. My chest was beating wildly, his anger...he cared about me. Me...In these stupid dumb peasant clothes, but he still thought...I don't care. He looks pretty cute angry, I'll just keep that to myself.

I had to think of something quick, "Butch...since you are here, the twins have never been to the Circus before...and maybe-"

He cleared his throat and had that plain, reserve look on his face, but then he did smile. He pulled my hand again, kissed it and looked at me, "It would be an honor, Tiger." He let his arm our meet as we walked in, "Now, I hope you don't give me away, I didn't want to be noticed here."

Blossom was pulling the Other Prince in, who was calling her crazy and stuff and Brianna wouldn't even look at Blitz, but he soon bear hugged her and carried her into the tent along with us. The show was just starting too...Thank god the Morbucks were no where in sight.

"Let me go, you psycho!" The Red Prince screamed as Blossom was still hugging him.

"Someone called." Belle was sitting right behind us, along with Prince Beast, "Roasted Corn."

He waved shyly at us, "Countess Black Rose, it is such a pleasure to once again beheld your beauty, is that not correct Big Brother?"

Butch was blushing as he shushed him, "Hey Where's Boomer?"

"I am sure baby a brother shall be here so," Beast looked at the Red Prince, "Why Eldest Brother, is that not the girl you spoke of, you are correct, she is pretty cute especially with a bow."

Well that added more fuel to the fire.

"You...said...I'm cute...Oh My Lovey Bear." Blossom had hearts fluttering all over her head as she grabbed him again.

"Damn you Beast, I'll get you for this." The Red Prince was ready to fight but Blossom held him tight with her strong grip, "GET OFF YOU PSYCHO!"

They were shushed by the surrounding people. The show was already starting and I was so surprise to see Sam and Sammie sitting in his lap. I wanted to ask Belle where was the Morbucks and Bubbles for that matter but the acrobats were starting.

"Brick, will you and your woman please be quiet." Butch glared at him and this Brick, of course, I'm so stupid...the royal quadtriplets, Brick, Butch, Beast, and Boomer and their Cousin, born on the same day, Blitz. I looked over at Blitz and Brianna, who was letting him wrap his arms around her but then pushed him away. The show was amazing, and the twins were really enjoying themselves, Sammie...nothing could keep her from smiling ear to ear and those big green eyes gleaming with such joy.

Fang, I chuckled as he was trying to roar like the tigers and lions, so adorable. He started purring like a baby when I started petting him.

"Excuse us," Butch suddenly put the twins down and grabbed me by the arm. He just pulled me out of the stands, and towards the exit. I just hope no one noticed, I leaned against one of the Castle's walls as he was in front of me.

"Who was this person? I demand to know. They must pay for-"

"What the hell are you talking about? Now, I can't be far from the twins-" I looked away, my cheek was still hurting a little, "It was an accident, but...if you must know...I was hit...by some noble or maybe a guard...because...of what I was wearing, I didn't look like a noble today. I couldn't go in." I was stunned by his angry once again.

"You just point this person to me."

"Just let it go! Don't you see, it doesn't matter because...I punched them back." I smiled.

Or I would have like to.

Butch just smiled and actually started laughing, " I forgot for a moment just who I was dealing with, a Pedigree Tiger with her own set of claws."

"Don't call me a pedigree, I'm anything but that, I can't stand dresses, I'm not the usual kind of girl."

"Don't be so modest, my dear Black Rose, when I called you a pedigree, I mean that I find you unique, one of a kind sort of girl. Plus...a certain someone told me, you're an Earth Fairy."

"Wait, I thought you knew that already." I was confused, "Didn't you see me use magic back in the forest?"

"Nope, all I say was the most annoying girl bothering me, until she removed that blindfold and I looked into those beautiful eyes."

I think I shrinked in size...he never knew...he never knew...Oh dear God...there is no god. I put myself in this whole mess...

"In fact, it seems...I would like another chance to paint you sometimes, and those eyes...and maybe...no clothes." He winked at me.

"Why Sire," I clenched my fists tight, "Are you being a Perv? That's gonna get you a punch."

"How odd, girls would jump at the chance to do that for me. Plus...I mean...back at the lake...I can tell you have a nice body."

I gasped, remembering how my clothes were clinging to my skin, he had that smug little grin and looked at me up and down.

"Now than...back to the Circus." He was about to walk away, but my heart was hammering at what he said before but now I was mad as hell.

"You are a Prince, you could at least...SHOW SOME MANNERS AND NOT BE A DAMN PERV!" I just chased after him.

Normal POV

Lady Morbucks and her two daughters barely watched the show as they were looking for Butch, though the small crowd.

"Darn that attendant, I should have known, he tricked me." Lady Morbucks suddenly felt a tug at her skirt. Underneath the stand, a figure...the attendant stood there, and pointed towards the opening of the Circus tent. Lady Morbucks excused herself and she found the attendant outside the Castle gate, behind a wall.

"M'Lady, how are you enjoying-"

"I gave you a lot of gems for this information and the Prince hasn't seen yet."

"That's why I have a back up. I hope you realized the risk that I went through, I could be hanged for this if anyone knew." He pulled out a handkerchief, and slowly opened it up.

"The Queen's necklace...brilliant, if we can't meet the Princes directly, then the Queen will be an even better chance." Lady Morbuck put about 20 gold gems into his hand.

"Well done, I'm impressed."

"Oh and by the way, the Prince is here...I didn't get a chance to see him...but I heard that this Countess, her name is Black Rose...I heard him called her that. From the way he sounded, he sounded really really happy to see her. Even kissed her hand...I've never seen him so gentleman like."

"What?" Lady Morbucks suddenly grabbed the man by the collar, "You must have gotten another look. Tell me."

The attendant gulped, "Well...I did get another quick look but you must understand, I was really close and didn't want to be since. She had medium length black hair, like the Prince's but that's all."

She let's him go, "Well...at least we know a name, Black Rose."

Back at the Castle

Bubbles and Sebastian looked from behind the wall, and both sighed in relief as Buttercup (Black Rose) made Butch beg for mercy as she had him in a wrestling move, a choke hold in a way.

"Looks like they're gone. I can risk him seeing me." Sebastian sighed again but he held Bubbles' in his hands, "Now then, where were we?" He chuckled as the two continued their make out session, when Sebastian finally broke the kiss, "Just be a little bit more patient and I promise, I'll marry you and make you mine."

"Yes of course, the sooner the better. I'm trying to be patient but...to tell you the truth, I sometimes can't stand my family. I'm such a terrible person." Bubbles started crying but he just wiped her tears away.

"Now I know you're not a terrible person. Your smile brings joy, you're sweet, caring, and cute too, which is just as important."

"Huh?"

"Well, yeah. My future wife can't be ugly." He joked and it worked, Bubbles' laughed softly and smiled, "That's much better. I'm lucky to find such a caring and lovely person, you've been so kind to me...especially me, which is why..."

Bubbles noticed her love's saddened look, "Why what?"

"Something I've been meaning to tell you, something important...You see..."

"Countess! Countess! Where are you girl?" Lady Morbucks was shouting in fury, "Get out here this minute Girl!"

"I gotta go," She kissed him one final time before she ran back to her mother, who took her back into the Circus tent.

The Circus was finally ending as the King and Queen were leaving first when Duchess and Princess quickly ran after them.

"Your Highness! Your Highness! Please wait!" The ladies both screamed after them. Sarah turned around, "Your Highness, I believe you dropped something." Duchess gave her the necklace and both of them bowed and walked away, slowly.

"Oh my goodness, my necklace...I don't remember putting it on, how very sweet," She whispered to one of the ladies in waiting, "What's their names?"

"Princess and Duchess Morbucks." The lady answered.

"Oh Girls, I would like to thank you for my necklace. Why don't you invite you two and your mother for tea."

"It would be our pleasure." Duchess and Princess both smiled as they turned around.
