It's update time ~The Wars Of Prunia~(chapter 2) Welcome back. I hope you enjoyed the last chapter. I'm not going to speak munch in this chapter. So let's get straight to Alice's pov, shall we? *Alice's pov* I hummed happily. I wasn't on guard duty. None of us were at the moment. There was a grand ball tonight, and we had the day off, but tonight we needed to protect them if needed. I sat in the palace garden. It was so beautiful. Prettier then any other garden I had every seen. My long brown hair blowing in the slight breeze. My purple eyes sparkled at the sight of a purple orchid. I loved orchid's, they reminded my of Eili, when he was young and sweet that is. I smelt the beautiful smell, sighing happily. It's been a years pass, since Eili's grandfather died. I still haven't exposed who I really am to him yet. It was the perfect day, for those who liked sunshine. As for the king, he walked into the garden as well, I had no idea he was behind my until he put his hand on my shoulder and scared me half to death, making him chuckle. /he's lucky I didn't have a knife, or his hand would be chopped off.../I thought. "well, I haven't seen a beautiful young lady like you since the queen"he said smiling brightly. I smiled back warmly. "thank you, but I'm nit as beautiful as the queen ever was"I said, blushing a bit. The queen was a very beautiful. She had long deep brown hair, and beautiful deep purple eyes, she also had perfectly rosey cheeks, and pale ivory skin, she had long slender legs, and was graceful as a princess. At least, that's what my dad used to tell stories about her. "you are. I haven't seen you in the palace before, are you a servant? Or a gardener perhaps?"Rikishi asked me. I shook my head. "no sir, I'm actually apart of the Great Eight"I told him. He looked shocked. "a pretty young lady like you shouldn't be involved in such warfare. Which one of my children do you protect?"he asked. "I've been trained for warfare since I was six, along with my brother. As for which one of your children I protect, I protect your son Eili"I told him. "aww, how lucky he is to have such a beautiful guardian angel"he said, and pet my head. "ah well, enjoy the garden young miss, and please protect my son well. He needs a little love and compassion, because he's rather ruff around the edges, but I know you could soften him up. He's just like his father"Rikishi said. "farewell, and see you at the ball"he added. "he's such a nice King, I'm glad to be apart of his kingdom"I said. I bent over and looked at a stream. I looked at my reflection. Brown hair, that needed lots of attention, dull purple eyes, and skin that normal didn't see to much sun. I did have long legs, but they were only good for kicking, even though they were slender. I sighed. "the queen huh?"I laughed sadly to myself. "the only kind of queen I could be is the queen of the swords"I said. Unknown to me, was that a pair of eyes had been watching me from a window in the tip of the castle since I went out to the garden. *Eili's pov* "that's Al?"I asked myself. She was beautiful, amazingly stunning. As she sat in the garden, she wore a small blue dress, it made her slender legs look beautiful, she did indeed have ivory skin. Her hair, did look like she hadn't done anything with it in a few years but, that could be fixed in one brushing. What she thought about herself was complete and utter crap. She was gorgeous. She hummed a quiet song, and the sound was beautiful. I was falling for her, and falling hard. /I wonder what her real name is.../I thought. There was one thing that most guys would've notices about her first, and that was her breast size. She wasn't extremely big, but she wasn't flat either. Frankly, I didn't care about that. When my father was talking to her, all I could focus on was her smile. /I sound so sappy right now.../I thought. "I like her!"I heard Rosy say behind me. It startled me, and I fell off the balcony, only to be caught by Al. "you need to be more careful my young Prince. That wouldn't have ended well"she told me and put me on the ground. I blushed. "umm yes, thank you"I mumbled. Then my sister was caught by a boy with black hair and blue eyes. "be careful my lady"he told her as she giggled. He set her down, and I raised an eyebrow. "Darken, you know they rules"Al told him. He nodded. "Eili, your father sent me to get you, for it is time for you to get ready for the ball tonight"Darken told me. I nodded and followed him. *Alice's pov* "what's your name?"Princess Rosy asked me. "Alice"I told her. "how lovely"she said. It looked like she was thinking, then show motioned for me to follow her. "come with me"she said. I nodded and followed her to her room. It was huge. The bed was a king size bed, the sheets made out of satin. Draping made from Satin as well. The flooring was carpeting. She had a huge bathroom, on the counter sat beautiful jewelry, makeup, and expensive perfumes. She pat a seat in front of the mirror. "have a seat"she said. I did as was told and sat down. "so, Alice I haven't seen you around the palace before."she said as she began to brush my hair. "Princess, shouldn't I be the one to brush your hair?"I asked. She shook her head. "I never get to do this to anyone, all my sisters seem to enjoy doing it to me, so I would like to do it to someone else"she told me. "so, what do you do here in the palace?"she asked me again. "I'm one of the Great Eight"I told her. I saw her take a pair of scissors and cut off some of my hair. She cut it so it was mid back. "most of that was split ends"she mumbled. "oh, one of the Great Eight, huh? I didn't think that there were any girls in the Great Eight"she told me. I nodded. "there are four men, and four women, including me"I told her. She continued to brush my hair. When she finished, she pulled me out of the seat and dragged me behind a dresser. She walked out from behind it, and began to search for something. "would you like me to help you?"I asked her. At this point, you probably would just like to get on to the ball. But I'm going to tell you, after this day Rosy and Alice became very good friends, as well as Eili and Darken. Let's skip to the ball shall we? *Alice's pov* As the music played, an people danced, I couldn't help but feel a little akward. I had never worn a dress before, and Rosy put me in a dress of hers. It was made of fine silk. It was red and black, she also put silver jewelry and expensive perfume on me as well. The Royal family had not arrived yet. When ever I passed by someone, they would stare at me. I must've looked weird. They would also whisper. A trumpet was heard, and everyone stopped dancing and talking, as we all bowed. As all the royal family came. The king sat in a throne, as his children all went down to the ballroom floor, instead of staying on the top floor. My job was to watch Eili from the side lines. As I watched him, I noticed a suspicious character creeping around. He wore all black, with his blue hair slict back. I watched him carefully as well. I found Darken and told him about the man. He nodded. "Alice, you look beautiful. Where'd you get those clothes, and makeup?"he asked. "Princess Rosy did this"I told him. He nodded smiling. I heard a creaking sound, and the sound of glass moving. I looked up at the chandelier. I gasped as it began to fall, the king was right under it to. I ran and pushed him an myself out of the way, before it crashed to the ground with a loud glass breaking sound, and the people screamed in fear as the lights went out. "are you alright King Rikishi?"I asked him. He nodded. "thank you"he said, I nodded. "is everyone alright?"Darken asked the royal family, they all nodded. We heard evil laughter, and Hector appeared on the ground level, laughing. "well, it seems my brother was having a party. And he didn't invite me"he said. "well, I'll just have to crash it!"he laughed and candles were lit across the room to revile his soldiers, with swords and cross bows. Everyone gasped. The great eight all grabbed swords and other weapons that were decorations on the walls. I had a bow and arrows, which was my specialty though I could adapt to any weapon I needed. I shot one of the soldiers, and continued this action until they were all gone. Of course the others got their opponents. Hector growled. And made another signal, and the whole palace was being taken down. King Rikishi found all the great eight, and his children, sending us with his children. "meet together at the Taka continent in four years. Don't stop moving from place to place before then. And keep my children safe. Now go!!"he told us, as the palace shook. I grabbed Eili by the hand and led him out if there, and inti the forest. He was blushing but was also looking back at the fallen palace. "Al, will my father be alright?"he asked. "I'm sorry Eili, I don't know. But he did give me instructions to keep you safe. By the way, call me Alice not Al"I told him. *Eili's pov* Alice? Was this that Alice? Was she sent to the war academy when she was six? Was that why she didn't come that day?
Lol Kurono you should finish or start rewriting or writing your version its probably a lot better then mine seeing as you are the one who created zhe first one
~The Wars Of Prunia~(chapter 3) *Darken's pov* As I ran with Princess Rosy away from the falling palace she began to sob silently. It made my heart ache to see a girl cry but there was nothing I could do about it at the moment. I led her to the stables, where the knights kept they're horses. I let my horse out of the stable, and got her ready to ride. I hopped on and pulled Princess Rosy up with me. /four years...it'll take us that long to get from Prunia to Taka!! We'll need to keep moving every week at the maximum of rest time!/I exclaimed in my mind. /well at least he said four years instead of one/I thought. This was going to be an interesting four years. *Eili's pov* "Alice...why didn't you come back that day?"I asked her. "there's no time to answer that question!"she yelled. I nodded and looked behind us at the palace I used to call home. I watched as it was lit on fire and my heart sank. Why would Uncle Hector do such a thing? Hello, I'm sorry I didn't get to you in the first part, but I had some, um, prior business that needed to be done. Anyway, I hope you are enjoying it so far, it's time that I introduced you to a young man by the age of sixteen. He's no ordinary young man. His name is Ares. He's the son of the god of magic and the goddess of music. The gods names are Versella the goddess and Charm lè Dom. He was sent to earth as an infant for he did not match his parents expectations so until he finished his quest he was banned to rom the earth. He lives in a small town called Aravelies. This town is no ordinary town, for it is filled with mages, elves, dwarfs, ogers, and so many more mythical creaters to your realm. Ares play everyday in the middle of the town. He plays his flute and dances with a big smile on his face as he does so. He had beautiful silver hair and hypnotizing blue eyes. He always loved to play music. The only problem was, when he gets to happy about it and adds magic, a spell is cast on the fair maidens who here the song. Now that you know about Ares, we should take a look into his life and his view for he is about to meet a very special young lady and young man. *Ares' pov* As I played my flute, making beautiful music with a big and stupid smile on my face I danced, and the children danced giggling happily. As a crowed formed I couldn't help but get happier, playing music was my passion, and so was magic. "Oi!! Ares!!"I heard my best friend Gale yell. I stopped playing and looked at him. "yes Gale?"I asked. "did 'uo 'ear about wha' happene' 'o Prunia?"he asked in his thick Camalot accent. "no, what happened to Prunia?"I asked him. "it was attacked! By 'ing 'Ector and 'is army! Late last night"he said. I gasped. "but Prunia is the strongest nation in this world! With so many warriors and wiseman how can this be?"I asked. Gale shrugged. "later ol' chap, must 'pread the news 'nd all 'hat."he said and walked away. I couldn't believe it. Prunia had fallen? *Alice's pov* As I bathe behind a water fall, being asked so many questions by Eili, I sighed. "Eili, why do you ask so many questions?"I asked him. "I don't know, it's just the way I am"he said. When I was finished I swam under the water fall in my bathing suit. When I got off and stood on the bank I looked at him. "Eili, we need to get moving. The next town is Araverlies"I told him. He nodded grabbing our stuff as I put normal clothes on. As we walked away to Araverlies I felt like we were being watched, so I stayed on alert. As we walked to the gates of Araverlies Eili stopped."Alice, this is the city of magic and we're not mages nor are we creaters. How are we to get inside?"he asked me. "you are a Mage, your grandfather gave you his magic a year ago, remember? And don't worry, just because I'm not a great Mage doesn't mean that I'm not one"I told him. The city was surrounded by an invisible wall, that if you were not magic you couldn't get in. I knew a little bit about magic but not much. As I walked through the invisible wall, Eili followed a bit confused. I would explain to him later. *Ares' pov* As I played my flute, I played a sad tune, and the villagers were either hunting, or to sad to come out side. It looked as though it was going to rain, and it did. As the rain began to fall on my head, I didn't stop playing. I played my flute, for no one to hear but I, that is, until two people came in. A beautiful young lady and a young man looking rather confused as he did, walked in. Imeditly the young lady caught my eyes, she looked to be my age, beautiful long brown hair, and deep purple eyes. She was perfect. As they walked closer, I figured out she was a knight, because she had a bow and arrows on her back, and the young man wore silk and satin, so I assumed he was from a rich family. /she must be protecting him, good that means I can take her/I thought mischeivously. I began to play again but it wasn't a normal song. It was a spell song, and it was like a syrin's song. It hypnotized that of the opposite gender when heard. In my case, it would hypnotize the girl. Now, your probably wondering a lot of things about Ares, and those questions will be answered soon. You may also, have questions concerning our beloved King, well let's find out what he's up to, shall we? *Rikishi's pov* I sighed. This was going to be a long four years. I missed my children, and I missed the palace but I needed to keep going so that Hector wouldn't find me. Right now, I think I was lost in the forest, but I wasn't quit sure. My knight was killed, well of course I ha many knights, but I didn't want then because they would be a dead give away but now I'm starting to regret my decision. Well, I'm sorry to say, that the king didn't find his way. But Darken and Rosy did, at this point in the past they were in a small town called Absulote. It was a quiet town a great place for rest and relaxation. It's also, not that far away from Prunia, but the only problem with this city is that it sided with Muscia in the war, so they must be careful, for as they stay there Muscia soldiers march though in such of them. Sorry to leave you guys like that , and I'm sorry it took so long I just have a lot of things happening right now. but I hope you enjoyed this chapter. Laters. -Danielle
