Chapter Seven: The Child Of Thousand Generations
Never in his life time had the crown prince felt himself so miserable and poor. Atsuya had finally realized just how poorly the people of his own country all living. All this in only one day, when he finally got out of the palace without his guards on not in any flashy clothes.
The pink-haired crown prince felt himself uncomfortable in the paupers old, smelling and ripped off clothes. Moreover people were glancing at him with humiliating faces and his legs hurt from all the walking. He wanted something to eat, and not to mention to drink. And this what the people in his country lived every single day. No he didn't want this, not to himself, not to others either.
Atsuya continued walking forward, investigating how the people in the city lived. The nobles live wasn't so much different from his own. They all wore fancy clothing and had lots of money and many different hobbies. None of them ever forgot about the afternoon tea.
He couldn't investigate much of the nobles. First of all he wasn't interested in them, secondly the passing to the area where noble lived was out of his hands, as he now was a peasant. Merchants where the second ones he investigated, and they were the ones he was most interested about.
He liked - not really but better than the other two - how they really worked for their own living. The merchants sold something they had caught or something made by them. There were lots of rich merchants, but they were also those whose life didn't go so well, and no one bought what they were selling.
Peasants were the most unluckiest of those that there were. They barely had any food and place to stay. Lots of them begged for food in the streets and kids were crying because of hunger. It hurt him just to see when so young boys and girls had to beg for food so that they were able to life the day. But what really hurt him, was the rudeness of the merchants, they threated peasants like they were dogs or something.
After getting perfect image of the life inside his city, the crown-prince was getting hungry and tired. So, to get some rest and food he decided to head towards the marketplace.
-OO-
Aiko who was looking for the person they knew as 'the child of thousand generations' was almost loosing her mind. The two boys with who she was kept yelling and running around the streets, while she still trying to hide her face kept chasing after them.
"Haruya, Hiro-kun! Come here right now!" she yelled in anger, while almost crashing on someone. The red-haired boy's laughed happily and continued running away. The indigo-haired girl agitated her head, and rolled her eyes. Why couldn't these to concentrate on the job that they were doing. Right... they were kids!
Not far away from the trio was a little shop opened, where two girls were chatting happily not knowing anything about the trio. One of them was baking a cake, while the other one was staring at check board thinking about her next move.
"You seem to have a bad day." the girl with brown-colored hair and silver-white eyes said calm as she moved her check piece forward. The girl with ocean-blue hair hissed angrily as she tried to decorate the strawberry cake that she had just baked. She didn't like when she had to talk while decorating a cake. She couldn't do those two at the same time.
"Actually, I was at the fortunetelling shop today." Yumiko said, as she let go of the strawberry which she was holding in her hands. She had just come from the shop that Aiko and Yukiko were running. It seemed that she wasn't in the best mood, and baking a cake helped her to calm down.
"And? What did they say to you?" San Ningyo, the best friend of Yumiko asked while moving the black colored check piece to attack her own one. She liked chess much, but since Yumiko wasn't any good on it she always played it alone. Yumiko glanced at San with burning eyes.
"She said that I would marry a prince." she mumbled out and San almost felled from her chair. Yes almost, somehow she managed to catch herself before falling on floor. The brown-haired girl started to laugh like a maniac and Yumiko just kept glaring at her.
"Gomen, but that's just so unbelievable! You marrying a prince? Only when the cows will fly!" San kept laughing and dried her eyes, which had become wet because of the laughing. Yumiko had crossed her arms in anger and she glared at her childhood friend with cold and long glare. San felt that this was enough, and that it was time to stop.
"NO! HIRO-KUN DON'T TOUCH IT!" they suddenly heard a girls voice yelling and then a crash followed by a kids crying. Yumiko and San ran to where the shop was, only to see an indigo-haired girl with black cloak lying on the floor while having a cake on her head and a red-haired kid with copper-colored cloak crying next to her while another boy just kept dancing around the girl.
"A-ta-ta-ta!" the indigo-haired girl massaged her head while standing up into a sitting position. A pieces of the broken cake were falling from her head on floor. Her indigo-colored hair was now all white.
"You okay?" Yumiko asked worriedly as she ran to the helping the girl up. When her golden eyes met up with the girls amber-colored ones her mouth widened in shock. No way, this was the same girl from the fortunetelling shop. Aiko smirked as she recognized the girl as one of her clients.
"So we meet again. This is a coincidence or maybe a fate." the indigo-haired girl smiled as she tanked Yumiko for helping her. Yumiko couldn't say anything, she only stood there stunned. San's jaw dropped in shock. "You know each other?" she couldn't believe that Yumiko would knew such a person. First of all she was younger that them, maybe by five or six years, secondly San herself knew almost every single person living in this city, but this girl was a total stranger to her.
"No not at all, I'm just passing by." Aiko smiled, telling an obvious lie since she had just told that they knew each other. She sat on her one knee while hugging the crying child, trying to calm him down. Then she put him on her cloaks special pocket which was on her back, and caught Haruya, who was just running around the place since he had nothing else to do.
The indigo-haired girl put on her hood so that it would cover her face, and then thanked San and Yumiko. Before leaving though, she gave some money to Yumiko while apologizing for the lost cake. Then the indigo-haired girl disappeared into crowd like a mist.
Yumiko and San glanced at each other speechless. They had never met such a, what would you call her, mysterious person. Yumiko sighed and countend the money she had received. It was twice the amount of the cakes real cost. Her face darkened, so this girl was one of those 'I don't care about money, since I don't work to have it' type of person. The one she hated the most.
The ocean-blue haired girl sighed and went to the shop planning of cleaning the cake, but when she went there, the was no cake lying on the floor. It had disappeared into the mist, just like the girl from earlier.
Aiko smirked happily as she walked within the crowd. She knew the meeting with the girls just earlier was a coincidence, it was fate. Now, only to know what will this fate bring to them. She closed her eyes, but opened them again when she felt someone pulling her hood down.
"Yes?" she turned to the copper cloaked boy who was sitting on the back 'pocket' made especially for him. His usually green-colored eyes were now shining gray, and she felt his green aura surrounding them. "I feel her, the thousand girl is nearh, she'sh nearh!" Aiko grinned and headed to where the crimson-cloaked boy was pointing at. The marketplace.
-OO-
The marketplace was something new for the pink-haired prince. Never in his life he had seen something so busy and not to say noisy. People were shouting loud in order to sell their products. Men and women from there and here offered him to buy something, like apples, fish, jewels and other things like that. But probably the worst thing that was offered to him was wine. The boy, never in his life had drank alcohol, moreover did he really look like an adult or was it just so that the man could sell his last bottle. Probably the latter one.
When Atsuya was in the middle way of the marketplace, he suddenly saw a group of man surrounding a girl, who was probably around his age. The girl was wearing dark blue cloak on her, so that her face was covered and she had basket in her hands. There was bread, few apples and milk bottle. It seemed that she was in trouble.
"Come on you little girl, why won't you come with us?" one of the men asked. He was well built and not to speak tall, probably around two meters. The girl kept silent and tried to shake them off, but suddenly another one of the men gripped her arm. Now she had no where to run.
Atsuya noticed that lots of people were staring at what had happening, but no one of them even considered of helping the girl. Either they were so busy that they didn't have time, or they just were afraid of the two men, who were both over two meters and looked strong. The pink-haired prince cursed the helpless people of his city and without a second though dashed to save the girl. Why? Because it was his job to protect his people.
"Let the girl go!" he shouted while grabbing the man's arm at the same time freeing the girl. He got between the girl and the two men, while glaring at them asking just what business they had with this girl. The men glanced at each other and started to laugh. Was this puny little pink-haired boy trying to go up against them, two well built man? Was he out of his mind?
"Who are you little boy?" they asked and Atsuya smirked while proudly introducing himself as the crown prince Atsuya Fubuki the II. The men jaw dropped. This boy had to be a freak, calling himself a crown prince when he surely was wearing peasants clothes. He must be one of those who were out of their mind. Yet again, he had managed to get them laugh at him, for the second time already.
All of a sudden one of the men stopped laughing and punched his fist right towards Atsuya's face. Was this it, Atsuya though as he didn't see a way to defend himself. While still looking for something sharp he found a little knife in the girls basket and told that he would be using it.
In a split second he took hold of the knife and attacked both of the men. No one even saw as the crown-prince attack the men, first he had been before them, but then in blick of a eye he was already standing behind them. The men felled down, as they wounds that Atsuya had cut on them opened.
Atsuya sighed and looked at the bloody knife he was holding in his hands. Thank god self-protecting was the only thing he liked from the training he had in the palace. He then gave the knife to the girl, who took it and quickly hide it into her basket. Atsuya looked at her as if he was waiting for her to say something, but the girl left without saying anything, and the crown prince was left standing alone next to the two fallen men.
"COOL!" he heard a male voice yelling in excitement and then a group of boy around his age ran to greet him. They new he was a new comer, since no one had ever seen this pink-haired boy. One of they boy's had brown hair and head band around his head. He introduced himself as Endou Mamoru and the others were Ichirouta Kazemaru, Rococo Urupa, Fideo Aldena, Yamino Kageto. There was few girls with them too such as, Hikari Watanabe, a girl with buff-colored hair. People around her tended to call her Light.
Amami Michiyo, also known as Mimi, a girl with orange-colored hair and pink headband. Her light blue eyes were the most dazzling eyes he had ever seen, well coming right after Hitomi's. This girl was probably the youngest one in the group, since she was must shorter than Hikari or even the next girl who was introduced at Yomi.
Her real name was Kei Sokune, but she said that she would prefer to be called Yomi, so he decided to call her like that. Yomi had shoulder length black hair and blue colored-eyes. She was probably around the same age as Atsuya himself. After introducing themself, the group asked if he would come to play soccer with them, since they were missing few members on their team to play against another soccer team that was knowns as the towns strongest team.
Atsuya wanted to refuse their offer, since he had to find the girl that he had just met. There was something he wanted to asked from her. The other teens wondered who he had met and told him to describe her. And so Atsuya did. "I didn't see her face, but she was wearing dark blue colored hood and her eyes were really similar to black. Also the knife I took from her had red Sakura pattern on it."
As he said this words, all of the teens faces got blue and he knew what something was wrong. He asked who was this girl, and they suggested to stay away from the girl. Of course, the prince wanted to know the reason, and they told it. "After all, she's a whore." Endou said and left. The others said bye to him, and followed their captain trying to find someone who would join their team.
-OO-
In far far faraway land, at the Fuyu desert, where the sand was white as snow a lonely figure was wondering around. Her brown cloak was almost white, because of the sand that the wind was throwing at her. Even though it was desert which are supposed to be hot she was hot, because of the strong cold find that made the temperature below 0 degrees the black-haired girl was almost freezing to death. What made the situation even worse what the fact that she couldn't see anything before her.
In a distance she could see a dim light shining. She decided to head towards it, and soon two person were standing before her. One of them had emerald-colored cloak and when she took of her hood her blond hair and emerald-colored eyes were seen. The other one had aqua-blue colored cloak, and her cerulean-blue hair was till her back while her brown eyes started at the coming girl.
"Tsukina Yamashita, am I right?" the cerulean-blue haired girl asked while holding a lantern in her hand. The black-haired girl nodded in confusion, and the two girl clanged at each other with smiling face. Then the blond-haired girl turned to her with serious eyes.
"We came here to tell you, that you have to head towards the capital." she said and when Tsukina looked at her with confused face the girl glanced at the cerulean-haired girl who nodded and turned to the black-haired girl.
"Your brother is in trouble." cerulean-blue haired girl said with serious and shining eyes. Tsukina's mouth opened a little. Brother? Could they be talking about, Shirou? Why would he be in trouble, after all he was in the capital living happily with their "parents" son. The black-haired girl was about to say something, but the emerald-eyed girl interrupted her.
"Hurry, before it's too late." she said, and after that came a strong wind and Tsukina had to cover her face that she wouldn't get any sand in her eyes. When the girl looked again before her, the two mysterious person had disappeared.
Who were they? What did they want? Why Shirou was in trouble Her head was full of questions and there was only won way to get some answers. Tsukina sighed, and took a necklace into her hands. It was made of blue glass and there was moon in the middle hanging on a silver chain. It was her only memory, and remembrance of her long lost family. Now she was on a mission to find them, but so far after three years of searching for them, she hadn't find any clue of her family.
For the safety of the only friend, and boy who was like a brother to her she decided to pull out her mission, to save the only family she really had. Right now, Shirou was more important to her than her family she never knew. So her journey back to the capital city Yukidaruma was starting.
-OO-
The crown prince Atsuya Fubuki II sighed loudly as he wandered around the city. He was hungry, but he couldn't get anything to eat, since he had no money. Also he didn't know where to sleep, all because he didn't know just where the pauper with whom he had changed roles lived. Maybe if he knew, he still wouldn't go since no one wants to get beaten up.
After hours of wandering in hunger, he noticed a familiar figure walking on one of the streets. He tried to catch up with the blue cloaked girl, since there was something he wanted to talk with her. The girl noticed quickly that he was following her and all of a sudden stopped, almost making Atsuya to crash on her.
"What are you doing you stupid woman!" the pink-haired prince yelled as he just barely avoided the crash. The girl continued staying silent and raised her head a little, making her smoky-black eyes visible. Never ever Atsuya had seen so dark eyes.
The two of them kept staring at each other, neither of them saying anything. All of a sudden the girl opened her mouth and mumbled something. Atsuya didn't hear her, but he read her lips. Slowly the girls voice got more louder and she started at him with her dark eyes. "What do you want with me?" she finally yelled and Atsuya backed off a little.
To the prince this was the first time he was talking to a girl without the help of his personal maid, so he didn't know what to say to her. Especially when she all of a sudden had asked something like that. "I... I..." the pink-haired boy kept stammering and the girl was getting angry. If he was a man, he should answer without stammering.
"Gosh, boy's these days!" the girl rolled her smoky-black eyes and turned away from Atsuya. The boy finally gathered himself together and grabbed the blue-cloaked girls hand. She turned her face to Atsuya and her eyes met with his gray-colored ones. The pink-haired boy thought, it was now or never.
"I just thought that maybe I..." Atsuya felt his temperature raising since it was impossible for him to ask something like this from a stranger, especially from a girl. But he had no choice, he didn't know anyone it this town and no one recognized him as the crown prince so he had to rely on this girl. Other choice would be the soccer teens he had met little earlier, but somehow he wanted to be with her more. Also, he was interested just why did they call her a whore.
The blue-cloaked girl raised her eyebrow, just what was the boy planning to ask? She got answer to her question in no time. "Maybe I could stay with you?" Atsuya said while lovering his head to the ground. The girls hair got all up and she blushed hard. After raising her and she smacked the crown-prince at his face.
-OO-
"We're home!" Aiko yelled as she entered the fortunetelling shop followed by her younger sister. They lowered the kids on their lap and back to the ground, and the boy's immediately ran into their own rooms.
"Welcome back." Osamu said and bowed at Aiko and Yukiko. The girls glanced at each other with sad faces and sighed. So he was still going to act like this. Just why couldn't the things go back to normal? Osamu waited for them to take of the cloaks and then led them to the living room where their tea was waiting for them.
"I got something to inform you." Osamu said as the twin girls sat into their chairs. Aiko glanced at the black-haired male while drinking little from her tea. Yukiko did the same as her older sister. They waited patiently as Osamu explained the things to them.
"The case is. Razel and Tori just informed that they found the spy." Osamu said and Yukiko stood up from her chair while she started to walk around the room. This was usual for her when she was listening about serious matters. "They told her to come here, and now she's on the way." he said and Aiko smiled happily while standing up.
She walked towards one of the windows and the four little boys who had just entered the living room stared at her with their eyes open. Aiko looked out side the window and enjoyed the sight of busy city life. "So the final paw have been moved." the indigo-haired girl said and closed her eyes. Yukiko smiled too.
"Now, it's up to wait for the runaway princess and crying maiden to come." the younger one of the sister said and walked next to her sister. Aiko smiled at her and nodded her head. They then both walked back to enjoy their tea.
"If only we new his next move." Osamu said with darkened face and the girls turned at him with widened eyes. Then they all sighed. He was right, it was still unsure to say anything until they new his next more. Right now, they couldn't enter the palace, since over using Ryuujis transportation powers wasn't allowed. Also it wasn't the time yet, so now they had no idea just what was going in side the palace. The only thing they knew that he was there, and Shirou too. Letting those two too close to each other would mean that the boy would be dead.
Aiko sighed, she didn't like waiting, but right now they couldn't do anything more than to wait. To wait until the three girls would arrive. Now that they had the prince and the child of thousand generations together, that was they only thing they need to wait for.
"Let's just hope that he won't make his move before the promised ones are here." Yukiko said and Aiko nodded. That was the only thing that they could do. To wait and pray that they would make it in time.
