Ramune swam up to the surface and jumped out and saw his love sitting in the sun. He walk over to her "mm good morning Ramune" she says without looking at him and he smiles "good morning..." She then looks at him with a lovely smile "it's so beautiful this morning....it's so beautiful just living here close to the palace" Ramune's heart sank knowing he was about to tell her that they were leaving. He sat beside her "hehe well there are lots of other places that are even better" he said but sbe shook her head "no...this palace is gorgeous don't you think bab?" Ramune dropped his head "well yeah... But growing up here makes the grass not as green" Julia glanced at him puzzled "hm what do you mean?" Ramune looked down at his paws before saying "Julia...i want to leave this place for ever, i don't want to live in my brother's shadows, i want to go and start a new life....with you" Julia look taking back and upset "What we can't leave...your the Prince" she said but Ramune just shrugs "yea so what?...i can't live with Blaze no more!" He was feeling frustrated Julia growled "i don't want to leave everfree Ramune...just because your jealous of him." Ramune looked shooked that she said that "jealous?... Yea ok maybe i am but Blaze is never around and doesn't care about me...in fact he's to much of a cowered to fight the war to came!" Julia looked puzzled "what?... What war?" Ramune slide his clows out "Soul he's going to attack the forest again and Blaze wants me to lead that war" Julia frowns "um...Ramune your going to fight right?" Ramune felt puzzled by this "well no" Julia narrowed her eyes "but you call him a cowered?" She said looking disappointment Ramune lowerd his head "but i have a reason...you Julia what if you die?...
