"Princess it's time to wake up." Said one of the maids. When Fiona didn't accept the wake up call she took her blanket and covered herself. "
"Come on Fiona you know you have to train the army today." Yet Fiona still didn't get up. "Mind helping a little cake?" the maid asked.
The cat jumped on the bed and began to annoy Fiona with a cat song.
"Grrr fine. I'm up. I'm up." Fiona said sitting up rubbing her eyes. "Please tell my father I'll be down for breakfast soon." Fiona said petting cake.
"Yes ma'am" the maid said walking out.
Fiona got out of bed, dressed in her general clothing which was light blue shirt and dark blue pants both protective armor built in and put on her white custom made princess general helmet with custom jewels built in. She grabbed her favorite blue and red sword and began to walk out the door.

Marshall woke up in his inn room and picked the gunk from his eyes. He sat up, grabbed his guitar, and reached into his pocket. He always started the day playing his guitar so he not only to tune it, but to remember his songs. "What the?!" He realized he didn't have his pick with him.
"Oh yeah now i remember. I left it at the castle just so i can see her again. i don't even remember why i did that. It couldn't be that i like her. Or could it? Oh my gosh I'm a wanderer in love with a princess." Marshall said realizing his feelings. "Well why wouldn't i love her? How different she was compared to other princesses, how strong, how beautiful her hair was, and those beautiful blue eyes. They practically glowed in the darkness of her closet at me. Listen to me. I sound like a freaking poet." Marshall laughed at himself.
"Well if I'm gonna play good tonight i might as well go to the castle and get my pick back." Marshall got dressed in his red and get plaid shirt, blue jeans, and red sneakers(i know the attire probably doesn't match the time period but Oh well) paid for the room and headed to the castle.

"where were you last night?" King Joshua asked eating his breakfast.
"Oh um...just went around town." Fiona replied trying so hard to not make her lie noticeable.
"Well today i want you to train the soldiers extra well today. We were almost defeated by the icetalion kingdom last night and don't want to risk them getting stronger than us." Joshua explained.
"Probably wouldn't be as terrible if you let me go." Fiona whispered. "I'm going to go play with cake before i get started." Fiona said pushing her plate away and walking back upstairs.
"He doesn't get it cake. If he let me go last night we wouldn't have such a problem stopping that witch." Fiona said throwing her arms in the air. "Mom would let me go."
Cake rubbed against Fiona's leg trying to comfort her.
"Still being a damsel in distress I see." Marshall said from the window. Fiona immediately turned to see him sitting on the windowsill.
"haven't you ever heard of a door? How do you even get up here anyway?" Fiona asked crossing her arms.
"Never heard of this thing you call "door" " Marshall joked using finger quotations for the last word. "And i just climb the ivy."
"Well you can't just barge in here whenever you want to. I could have been indecent. Or my father could have been in the room. Why are you here anyway?" Fiona asked
"My apologies princess of questions." Marshall joked walking infront of Fiona bowing. "And i was here wondering if i left my guitar pick here."
Fiona blushed at his apology tease. "Yeah. Now if i could just remember where i left it." She said scratching her head. "Want to help me look for it?" Fiona asked
"Sure thing my poorly royally dressed princess." Marshall joked again looking on her bookshelves.
"Well i am the general too and I'm not your princess." Fiona blushed again looking through her room.
"Hey as long as I'm in these kingdom walls you are." Marshall said "Now where was the last place you saw it?" Marshall asked
"I think on my nightstand. Maybe it fell under my bed." Fiona replied taking her helmet off,placing it on the bed, and getting down on her knees.
"Here let me see." Marshall getting down next to her. It was just far enough for Fiona to reach but she had to get on her stomach to get it. They both stood up and Fiona returned it to him.
"Hey thanks. Do you want to come to my gig tonight? I'll get you a good seat backstage." Marshall asked rubbing the back of his head.
"I'd like that. Better than arguing with my father or training with the soldiers. Where's it at?" Fiona asked
"Murray's Restaurant. Ever been there?" Marshall replied
"Heard of it but never been there. I only go to places that get robbed."
"Here. I'll come back tonight on my way there and pick you up." Marshall offered.
"Thanks. I'd better get going. Gotta train the soldiers. Apparently they were pretty bad last night protecting the candy kingdom." Fiona said
"Probably wouldn't if they had their pretty, strong general princess fighting with them." Marshall said
Fiona blushed at him calling her pretty. Marshall even snuck a blush as he exited the window.
"Well better head back downstairs cake." Fiona said to cakes meow.
