The Prince's Guard

Chapter 7

"You'll get killed when I am fighting and there might be an opening so stay here.",said Mia.

Mia and Chiyoko left the room and the family stayed in the room.She told Chiyoko to unfreeze time and she arrived at outside when she saw the familiars fighting.Chiyoko went with Hoshi for protection and Mia went to fight with them.

"Erebus,go find Drew and protect the family.",said Mia.

"Ok,Horr ca'ghs!",said Erebus.(A/N: Hell dogs!)

Erebus did what Mia said and went in the castle.He went in Drew's dressing room and disarmed the trap.He tore a piece of his clothes and gave it to his dogs too sniff him out.The family was in the room and sitting on the chairs next to the closets.Drew was looking on the ground and Linda was worried.

"...Are you ok?",whispered Linda.

"...*sigh*...I'm just worried about Mia...",whispered Drew.

"...Oh...",whispered Linda.

"...You two be quiet before we get caught...",said Drew's mother.

The door knob started to wiggle and they knew that the assassins were trying to pick the lock so they went in the closets.The assassins opened the door and surveyed the room.

"...Drew,I am scared...",whispered Linda as she embraced him.

"...Be quiet...",whispered Drew.

"Put the traps so the families can't have a room.",said the assassin.

They put traps for 2 minutes and locked the door behind them.They peaked out and got out the closets carefully.They were carefully tried not to disarm the traps and the door knob started to wiggle again and they stood there in fear because they were out of the closets.Erebus knocked down the door and tackled down Drew.He started to rub his cheek against Drew's in happiness and helped Drew up.

"I found you!! You've should have seen the assassins attacking me outside and inside plus they are fighting half of my dogs.",said Erebus.

"Well,get us out of here because the assassins are coming in the room.",said Drew's father.

Erebus called in half of his dogs to take the families out and he broke the window inside the room.The other half of his dogs were attacking the assassins and they got out the room.The dogs were heading straight to Mia and the others and Mia noticed them.

"What are you doing here?",said Mia.

"I got them out the room because I brought the assassins to them by accident.",said Erebus.

"You know Erebus...you maybe strong,but you're stupid.",said Mia.

"Whatever...I already knew that.",said Erebus.

"Hoshi! Come and make a barrier around the families.",shouted Mia.

Hoshi went over to the families and made a barrier around them.After 30 minutes,there was bodies were on the ground and there was blood everywhere.Hoshi still had the barrier around them and Mia went over to them.Mia and her familiars had blood all over there clothes.

"Mia,you reek of blood and you REALLY need to take a shower."said Chiyoko while covering noise.

Mia was talking and the barrier was about to disappear.There was an assassin in the bush and shot arrow from the bush.Mia didn't see it because blood was covering her right eye neither her familiars noticed it except Drew.The arrow was heading towards Mia and Drew jumped in front of her and he got shot in the stomach.Mia's eyes were wide and the families's eyes were wide as well.Erebus picked him up and brought him inside.Hoshi didn't have enough energy to heal him and instead she put some medicine with bandages.Everyone left the room and Mia stayed with him to untie the guests.

Mia was crying and Drew's eyes were slowly opening.Mia wiped her tears and waited for Drew to get up.

"Why did you save me?",said Mia.

"Because...",said Drew.

"Because why?",said Mia.

Drew pulled her close to him and kissed her.Mia was shock what Drew did and stopped.His hand was on her cheek and she touched it.

"Because I love you.",said Drew as he looking in Mia's eyes.

"I had these feelings inside of me for 9 years and I was afraid that you'd ignore it.",said Drew.

"I had these feelings as well,but I wanted you to continue to grow strong.You saved me,Drew...",said Mia.

Drew gave out a chuckle and looked at the window.He got up and took his jacket.They were out of the room and went to the ballroom.Everyone was waiting for Drew and he went to his parents.Mia went next to Linda and her parents.Drew kneels down on one knee and took out the ring.

"Will you marry me?",said Drew.

The guests were whispering to each other and Mia was confused why Linda didn't answer.Linda didn't have any facial expressions and just looked at me.

"Why aren't you saying your answer?",said Mia.

"Because he is not asking me,but to you,Mia.",said Linda.

Mia was shocked and stared at Drew.

"Will you marry me,Mia?",said Drew while giving her a smile.

"...Yes,I will.",said Mia.

Drew hugged Mia and kissed her.
