Sakuchii: Hai! Finally the next chapter is up! I'm so happy!
Atsuya: Yeah right. But why I am the only one appearing in this chapter
Aiko: OH no! No! NO! You're not the only one who will appear *evil laugh*
Yukiko: But before that it's time to answer to your reviews!
Sweet-Cool-Twins: I got the main idea from the REAL prince and the pauper (which is a book) and the Mickey Mouse version of this story:) But well barbie princess and the pauper is made out of the original story, with only changing their gender to females, so those who don't know about the real story, might mix them up... Oh and I'm updating them as fast as I get the idea from my head to computer... and for my bad luck, my own computer broke down, which makes me able to update and continue my stories much slower than usual.
Floric1434: Oh MY GOD! What have I done? O.o Okay... to tell the truth I knew that Yuuya had the same name as Aiko's and Haruya's son, because I, NO MATTER WHAT, wanted to have his name starting by letter Y, and because I already have Yuuma in my other story (and the other names weren't so cool) I decided to go with Yuuya. I'm sorry Yuu-san, hope you won't mind this too much. But with Flo-san... OH MY GOD! I totally totally TOTALLY FORGOT SORRYY! It really took me with a big surprise. SORRY!
Sayaro: Thank you, I myself too really want to know how this will turn out, I have only the main plot inside my head, and it really likes to change when ever it wants. Hope you will be enjoying this story as much as I enjoy writing it. Will be waiting for your reviews:D
CutiepieSakura123: Oh, I'm really sorry if the summary was little misleading, but the truth is that I'M NOT even planning to write this as a yaoi story. Usually my long fics have strait-pairing and one-shot's are yaoi, though I have to say that one of my long stories is yaoi, but it was supposed to be only a one-shot. Hope this will help you to enjoy the story more and I will be waiting for your reviews.
Sakuchii: Okay! Maybe I should once more say this. Everyone, who will be waiting this story to be ShirouxAtsuya, I would prefer you to stop reading it here, or just change your mind to have strait-pairings. It's not that I have anything against yaoi, but I have my own plans for this story, and I'm not changing the plot to change this into Yaoi story
Aiko: Oh and I think it would be a worth of mention that this story will be nothing LIKE the real prince and the pauper. That's for the reason because our writer has to wicked mind...! Yes. This is a real fairytail with such things as magical powers and witches and so on!
Yukiko: Don't spoil too much! Hope you enjoy the story!
Sakuchii: I'm sure that you guys already got it, but I DO NOT own INAZUMA ELEVEN! I only own my OC's :D
Chapter One: Marriage?
In a far, faraway land where are no cars, TV's, mobilephones, cameras, mp3s, laptops or anything electronic items we have nowadays. There where dragons and other magical creatures lives and where magic is not at all such a strange thing, is located a kingdom of Snow. There rules a king Fubuki XIX, an old and kind ruler who is loved by all of his subordinates and citizens. Our story will take place in this world, and to correct in the capital city Yukidaruma, where lives our main character of this story, the crown prince Atsuya Fubuki II... but before we start with him, it seems that we have some guests coming.
- Prince And The Pauper -
"We FINALLY here!" smiled happily an exhausted black cloaked girl as she saw a castles wall standing before her. She had all black clothing and her face was covered by a hood.
"I'm glad, nee-san" she heard someone saying and walking next to her. The other person's clothing was also all black, but the cape on her - instead of being black - was dark brown colored. Her face too, was covered by the hood of her cloak and it couldn't bee seen. The two girls smirked at each other. Finally... Finally they had reached their final destination.
"WOA! What a pig castly! It's HAUGEE!"
The girls turned around in startle as they heard a voice of little boy shouting. There was a group of four kids waking up in a little wagon, though one of them was already fully awaken and pointed at the castle with his mouth wide-open. Just like the girls, they were covered by cloacks, but everyone had different color, one deep crimson, one dark blue, one dark green and one copper red colored. Two of boys were rubbing their sleepy eyes and streching their hands, while the dark blue cloaked stared at the boy who was pointing at the castle with his finger. Somehow, his hood had managed to drop and two black things were popping up from his head.
The black capped girls jaw dropped and she squeezed her fist. "Haruya! How many times I have told you not to EVER drop you hood! It would be a disaster if we'll be found out!" the girl shouted in anger, which made the crimson cloaked boy startle and he quickly covered his head with the hood, and whined "Baka-neesan is MIEAAN ageeeinn!"
"Crystal-sama, please don't be so angry at him, he's just a little kid." they heard a male defending the little boy as another boy appeared from behind the wagon and walked next to the girls. The boy was also wearing a black cape as the first one of the girls, but he was clearly taller than she and was only one of the males that was around the age of the girls.
The black caped girl pursued her lips - though it couldn't be seen because of the hood, "How many times I have told you to NOT call me by THAT name. You should know very well that I abandoned that name after that day.
'Just how many that you can have in one sentence? Not bad at all nee-san' the brown cloaked girl chuckled at her older sister.
"More over! That guy there!" the black cloaked girl pointed at the crimson cloaked kid, "Is not a LITTLE KID! After all he has lived for a WHOLE YEAR longer than I have" she continued with angered tone..
"As you say, Crystal-sama" the black cloaked teen bowed and left to help the little kids out of the wagon. The black cloaked girl squeezed her fist and felt the anger inside her growing. Her younger sister sighed and placed her hand on the other girls shoulders.
"You should know very well that it's pointless to talk to him. He called you by that name once, he will call you like that always. That is just the kind of guy he is." the brown cloaked girl smiled and looked at the teen who was helping last one of the boys out of the wagon. When all of the four kids were standing on the ground, they happily ran to the older girls. The black cloaked girl, took the boy with crimson colored cloak into her lap, while the brown cloaked girl took the one with dark blue cloak.
"Look boys..." the brown cloaked girl started and pointed at the castle which was standing before them. "This is going to be our new home." her sister continued with a smirk. The boy's faces turned first into surprise and then they started to happily jump around the girls. Although that's only for the boy's who were standing on the ground, the ones on the laps just shouted in exitement, however the one with blue cloak just kept staring at the huge building with his mouth wide-open.
"New HOUME! It's Our NEW HOUME! WE'RE GOING TO LIVY IN A CASTLY!" the crimson cloaked boy celebrated in exitement. "BANZAAII!" the amber and dark green cloaked boy's jumped.
The older trio first looked at the happily jumping boys, and then glanced at each other with smiling face.
"Okay okay, enough with the celebrations! We should be going, because we still have lots to do."
His young majesty, the only son of King Fubuki XIX, the next ruler of Snow kingdom, the crown prince Atsuya Fubuki II sighed loudly as he stared outside his rooms window. He turned around and lied his head against the window and was about to die of boredness. Just how boring can Prince life actually be? He couldn't walk alone in the city and was always followed by his guards, he couldn't play freely like other kids or even do the things he wanted to. Moreover, he was always followed by his personal...
Atsuya heard a light knock into his rooms door. The prince stopped his stare at outside and glanced at the door. It opened akwardly and behind it appeared a girl around the age of Atsuya himself. Her hair was a brown as cinnamon and she had beautiful maroon colored orbs. She walked into the room and bowed, after what she started to speak.
"Atsuya-sama, there are guests who would like to see his majesty." he told to bored prince who just hissed as an answer. Atsuya hated guest the most, he just couldn't stand them, always questioning about his fathers bad condition and begging him to take the place as the new king on his 16th birth day which would be in few months. The maroon-eyed girl smirked and faked her dissapointed face.
"Oh my, then I'll go tell Gouenji-sama that his majesty is feeling bored and doesn't want to meet any guests today." the cinnamon-haired girl bowed and was about to go, but knew that would be stopped. Atsuya's eyes widened as he heard the name of his good friend, and yelled after the girl, "Mi-chan no, don't go yet!"
"Yes?" the girl turned around to look at the pink-haired prince.
From the girls smirk Atsuya knew that she hand once again played with him and felt his cheeks burning from embarrassment. He couldn't stand when his personal maid was playing with him, and how she could away deceive him with those maroon-colored orbs of her. Yes, the cinnamon-haired girl before him was Atsuya's personal maid Hitomi, or Mi-chan as called by the prince. Hitomi's family had served the Fubuki family since ages and now it was Hitomi's time to take the place as the future kings personal maid.
"Don't..." Atsuya tried to calm himself down, and holding his anger inside him. "Don't go just yet. Tell Gouenji that I'll be coming in few minutes." he continued and got his noble stance back again. The cinnamon-haired girl smiled and bowed.
"As you wish, your majesty. Now excuse me." the girl said and walked out of the room while closing the door behind her. Atsuya sighed and felled on his back into his colossal bed. He coved his face with his hand and sighed. Atsuya didn't like when he was called "his majesty" and especially by that girl. The prince turned into his right side and closed his eyes. Who could believe that that girl, who had just few years earlier called him by his name, was calling him so formally. Atsuya sighed and closed his eyes.
~Flashback~
The young crown prince ejoyed his day outside the palace and was taking a nap under one of his favorite cherry blossom tree. He then heard steps coming closer and opened his left eyes to glance at the coming person. Not much to his surprise he saw a girl around his age running to him with a garland in her hands. The prince decide to close his eyes and pretend to be sleeping.
"Atsuya-kun! Atsuya-kun! Wake up." the girl jolted the pink-haired prince, but the boy didn't more an ich. After sometime she gave up and just sat next to the boy. The girl raised her head to look at the sky, and stared at the indigo-blue sky. She then sighed and turned to the sleeping boy. The girl took the garland she was holding and placed it on Atsuya's head and turned away.
The pink haired boy took a quick glance at the girl, and noticed that a tears were forming into the corners of her eyes. The thought of his waking up now crossed the boy's mind, but somehow, when the girl once again turned to him, he just decided to close his eyes and continue "sleeping"
"Nee- Atsuya-kun." the girl once more tried to wake Atsuya up, but with no succeed this time either. When she finally gave up she sighed and took a glance at the palace.
"You know Atsuya-kun..." she started even though she was sure that he didn't hear her. "From tomorrow on, we cannot act so friendly anymore... I'm, I'm taking the place as your personal maid, after all it's not long for your 16th birth day when you will officially take the place as the next king. I have to prepare for that day, so that when you will be the king, I will be able to help you with anyway you want to..." there was a silent moment and the prince opened his eyes to know what was wrong.
He was almost ready to jump up from his stance and start shout something. The boy stared eyes wide-open as he saw the cinnamon-haired girl bawling like a little baby, as she tried to tried to held up her tears and drye the ones which were already falling.
"But you know... I will always be here for you, I will always be looking after you, no matter what, I will always be by your side." the cinnamon-haired girl said after she had finally managed to stop the tears falling from her eyes. She then took a glance at the boy, but was disappointed that he was still sleeping peacefully.
The cinnamon-haired girl kneeled before the crown prince and kissed him of forehead. After that she stood up and smiled happily, "Sleep well, my prince." and left the princes side. Atsuya felt his cheeks burning as he sat up to look as the cinnamon-haired girl disappeared into the palace.
~End of Flashback~
Since that day, not even once she had called him by "Atsuya-kun" anymore. Atsuya sighed and stood up to walk to the door. He opened it and walked outside leaving his room all empty. As he walked in the corridor he met a lot of maids and butlers who stopped and greeted him as he passed by. The prince didn't bother to greet them back, first of all he was in hurry, secondly why should he? After all he was THE prince. And princes never greet low-life people like maids and butlers.
Okay that was maybe little over board, because his personal maid had always told him to greet people no matter from what class they were. So when the prince knew that he was coming closer to the guest room where his friend was, he started to nod to everyone who was walking past him, just make sure that he wouldn't be scoulded by the maroon-eyed girl. Atsuya sighed, really, why should he be afraid of a girl. If it's her, he would even eat his own finger, it that would make her to calm down. There wasn't anything more frightening than that girl when she was angry.
After a turn to the right in a corridor, Atsuya knew he had come to the right place. He saw a maroon-eyed girl in a maid uniform standing in front of one of the doors and it seemed that she was waiting for someone. When she heard steps coming, she turned around and after seeing that it was Atsuya she greeted him, "Your majesty, I've been waiting for you."
Atsuya only nodded to her as an answer, and was ready to open the door to his friends room, but was stopped by the maroon-eyed girl. "Let me," she said and placed her hand on the handle. Atsuya startled back as he felt her warm hand on top his and felt a light crimson appearing into his cheeks. The prince had never felt this way before, and was confused by his own actions. What made the situation more complicated is that his maid was staring at him, with those dazzling maroon-colored orbs of her.
When meeting with those orbs of hers, Atsuya remembered something she had said to him years ago, "I will always be here for you, I will always be looking after you, no matter what, I will always be by your side." The prince looked down to avoid the eye contact with his maid, but by doing that he was smacked on the back. Atsuya raised his head in surprise and saw his maid staring at him angrily.
"Fix your stance! His majesty should never look melancoly before guests, you know that really well," the girl scoulded him and then quickly opened the door before Atsuya had a chance to react.
From behind the door appeared a boy, who was as old a Atsuya himself, with white, spiky haired. He was sitting in a marvelous chair, but stood up as soon as the door behind him opened. "Atsuya, you finally made it here." he greeted his friend as the pink-haired prince stepped into the room.
"Sorry to make you wait, Gouenji." Atsuya had fixed his stance and apologized to the spiky haired boy for being late. The guest shook his head and smiled kindly. "No you're wrong, his majesty can never be late. And how many times I have told you to call Shuuya, we're not strangers you know."
"I'm sorry." Atsuya apologized once more and sat to a seat opposite the guests. Gouenji raised his eyebrow and stared at the prince. He had never seen his friend acting like this. Gouenji then turned to Hitomi and smiled at her, telling he would like to stay alone with his friend. Hitomi bowed an left the room, "If you want something feel free to call me," she said before closing the door.
Gouenji answered to her with a nod, and when the maid had left the room, he turned to his friend and sat down into his seat. They sat there for a while, Atsuya staring at the floor, while Gouenji staring at him, with neither of them saying anything. Finally, Atsuya was the one who broke the silence, as he raised his head, and moved one of the chess pieces forward on the chess board, which was on the table.
The white haired boy smirked and moved his black colored pawn forward. Atsuya playing chess meant that he was finally ready to start a conversation. This also was the reason Gouenji always had his chessboard on his table. The pink-haired boy stared at the board and finally made his move, he moved his knight forward.
"So, how's the kings condition? Anything new?" Gouenji asked and moved his black knight forward to attack Atsuya's pawn. The prince raised his head from the board and glared at his friend. Could he had started the conversation with something else than asking about his fathers condition? Atsuya then turned back to the board and saved his pawn from Gouenji's knight by moving it forward.
"He's the same as usual, still lying in his bed as usual. Just like he's been doing for six years already-" the prince answered after letting go of the chess piece. Gouenji predicted he would say that, after all the prince answered like the same way every time he had asked that question.
"I see... Have you decided to take the place as next king already?" Gouenji asked while moving his chess piece forward. The situation was same as earlier, Atsuya first glared at his friend, but then turned his stare back at the board again and moved his piece.
"By the way... I heard that you're having a wedding soon, congratulations!" the prince said while trying change the subject. Gouenji noticed this, and assumed that his friend didn't even want to take the place yet. He decided to let it be and just answered to his friends question.
"Thanks. I was planning to come here to tell you that, but it seems that the rumors came before me." he started and continued after changing his pose to a more comfortable one, "My father said that it was already a time for me to find myself a bride, after all I'm turning 16 soon, and as a son of a noble family I should have myself a bride on my 16th birth day."
Atsuya listened his friend explanation and commented with a "you're right" and moved his chess piece. If he would have been aware what his friend would ask next, he wouldn't probably be in the room at the moment.
"So have you found yourself a bride yet?" Gouenji asked with a smirk on his face. Atsuya's eyes widened and he felt his head blowing up. He, he hadn't even though about something like marriage. "You should know were well that king without a queen isn't liked by citizens." he heard his continuing.
Gouenji was right, a king without a queen wasn't like at all, it was like it was only a half of him. Atsuya sighed, "No, to tell the truth marrying someone hasn't even crossed my mind. You should know that right now my main aim is to get my father cured and let him rule the kingdom. I have not even once thought that I will be ruling the kingdom while father is still alive." the crown prince answered, though he knew that curing his father wouldn't be so easy, after all, not even the best doctors knew what was wrong with him.
"And where would I find a girl, you would agree to marry me." Atsuya added with sour tone. Gouenji raised his eyebrow and almost burst into laughter. Didn't that stupid prince know that almost every girl would marry him just by knowing that he was the crown prince. The only problem would be that would she love him, not the money? Gouenji thought about that a moment and finally one person, who would surely many his majesty without the thought of many in her mind.
"Check." Atsuya said and moved his queen to attack Gouenji's king. Gouenji answered to his friends attack by eating Atsuya's queen with his bishop. He then closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "Say Atsuya?" he asked from his friend who was thinking how to make his next move. Atsuya raised his head questioning and glanced at his friend. He never though his good friend would suggest something so unbelievable like that.
"How about marrying Hitomi-chan?"
Sakuchii: Okay trying to make this short. Thank you for reading this chapter and hope you will review. And I'm not trying to make Mary Sue out of Hitomi, even though I often mentioned her eyes as orbs (those who has read my others fics know that I NEVER earlier have called them orbs) no, the real meaning is behind her name. "Hitomi" mean pupil of an eye and is usually given to those child who has beautiful, so with this we know that Hitomi has beatiful eyes and that's why I'm calling them orbs instead of eyes. Also I'm planning to accept some OC's for this story because I'm in need of girls (Like who will be Gouenji's bride... I have no idea xD) So if you want to appear here, please fill this up
OC SUBMISSION IS CLOSED DOWN - NO MORE OCS ACCEPTED!
Yukiko: Thank you for reading and hope that we will get some new friends into this story... Sakuchii said that she especially needs someone to pair up with Midorikawa and Hitoro XD
Aiko: And well, while waiting for the next chapter to appear...
Sakuchii: Will be waiting for your reviews:D
