          Aben never really ventured out in the open unless father was around. After sneaking out of the boring lessons about snails, and thankfully that his teacher was so absorbed in the subject itself, he should be able to come back with out her noticing his absence. He was glad he read that book about escaping! (Don't ask, he has his reasons.) He snuck in to the kitchen as he grabbed a handful of forks and rushed down the halls as went to the tower and went to the balcony. He shook his jacket off dropping all the clattering forks and strings as well as a very thick rope.

He started bending the forks and made it look like those grappling hooks by twisting the handles to make it look like some kind of a bouquet of needles. And wrapped an extensive amount of strings to keep it in place, luckily he made a little hole with one of the handles so he was able to stick the rope in and tie it securely. He grabbed a belt and attached it to the rope and so, he successfully made his escape device! He hooked it on the balcony as he wore the belt and climbed down using his feet to push himself off the wall.

He landed down stealthily as he took off the belt and started walking, following the path he's seen Azure tread ever so often. Jumping through the winding paths as he looked around in awe by the nature around him in glee. He has tried to go outside many times before, but his father was very overprotective of him and Azure. So he didn't go out as often as Azure does, mostly because Azure doesn't give a shit and him being obedient, listened.

Still, he still doesn't get how Azure can go through these winding paths with no effort whatsoever, but whatever is making his brother determined to go out, it obviously means something really Important!  Or so he thought, how would Aben react to the fact that his usually stubborn brother was seeing someone? More importantly, how would the king react to that? No matter. He was just trying to feed his curiosity, nothing more, nothing less.

Though he did wonder. Who in all the United kingdoms would catch his brother's attention? Not even the fairest of maidens can catch his eye!
Aben knew he was breaking the rules, but he just can't help himself! So that's where we are, a prince running towards the woods to catch up with his angsty teen of a brother.

He trailed down towards winding paths as he suddenly caught eye of a transparent being. It glowed a light maroon, looking about his age as it looked about in confusion, what could it be? A ghost? Or a Spirit? Whatever it is, it was quite curious he walked slowly behind it as he looked at it, misplacing his steps he made a loud snap as he stepped upon a now broken twig.

It snapped it's head back in surprise as the being floated towards Aben, Aben didn't fear the creature which was a great shock to them, but was quite happy he wasn't running away. Aben and the being looked at each other as if in a trance, circling around the other, very intrigued by the other's presence.

"☟︎☜︎☹︎☹︎⚐︎📪︎ 💣︎✌︎✡︎ ✋︎ ✌︎💧︎😐︎ 🕈︎☟︎⚐︎💣︎ ✡︎⚐︎🕆︎ 💣︎✌︎✡︎ 👌︎☜︎✍︎" Aben asked humbly. The being looked upon him in shock, for Wingdings was an ancient language that very few skeletons knows anymore. He in fact chooses to speak this way mostly to avoid talking normally to others, and mostly so no other races could understand what he's saying.

And luckily, the being could understand. "💣︎✡︎ ☠︎✌︎💣︎☜︎ ✋︎💧︎ 🕈︎☼︎✌︎✋︎❄︎☟︎📪︎ 💣︎✌︎✡︎ ✋︎ 😐︎☠︎⚐︎🕈︎ ✡︎⚐︎🕆︎☼︎💧︎📪︎ ✌︎👌︎☜︎☠︎✍︎" The being, now known as Wraith responded. Aben smiled quietly to himself, it was nice to know he wasn't the only one. "💣︎✡︎ ☠︎✌︎💣︎☜︎ ✋︎💧︎ ✌︎👌︎☜︎☠︎📪︎ 🕈︎☟︎✌︎❄︎ 💣︎✌︎✡︎ ✌︎ 💧︎❄︎☼︎✌︎☠︎☝︎☜︎ 👌︎☜︎✋︎☠︎☝︎ ☹︎✋︎😐︎☜︎ ✡︎⚐︎🕆︎ ☠︎☜︎☜︎👎︎ ⚐︎☞︎ 💣︎✡︎ 😐︎✋︎☠︎☝︎👎︎⚐︎💣︎✍︎ ✌︎☼︎☜︎ ✡︎⚐︎🕆︎ 🏱︎☜︎☼︎☟︎✌︎🏱︎💧︎ 💧︎☜︎☜︎😐︎✋︎☠︎☝︎ ☼︎☜︎✞︎☜︎☠︎☝︎☜︎ ⚐︎☞︎ 💧︎⚐︎💣︎☜︎ 💧︎⚐︎☼︎❄︎✍︎" Aben asked questionably, hoping it was not the latter.

Wraith looked surprised as he asked this, but soon went into a fit of giggles as Aben looked in confusion. Wraith drifted towards Aben and cuffed his cheeks and smiled as he commented. "⚐︎☟︎ 💣︎✡︎ 💧︎❄︎✌︎☼︎💧︎📪︎ ✌︎☼︎☜︎☠︎❼︎❄︎ ✡︎⚐︎🕆︎ ☺︎🕆︎💧︎❄︎ ❄︎☟︎☜︎ 👍︎🕆︎❄︎☜︎💧︎❄︎✏︎ ✋︎❄︎ ✋︎💧︎ ✈︎🕆︎✋︎❄︎☜︎ ☟︎🕆︎💣︎⚐︎☼︎⚐︎🕆︎💧︎ ❄︎☟︎✌︎❄︎ ✡︎⚐︎🕆︎❼︎👎︎ ❄︎☟︎✋︎☠︎😐︎ 💧︎⚐︎✏︎ 👎︎⚐︎ ✋︎ ☟︎⚐︎☠︎☜︎💧︎❄︎☹︎✡︎ ☹︎⚐︎⚐︎😐︎ ❄︎☟︎✌︎❄︎ ☞︎☼︎✋︎☝︎☟︎❄︎☜︎☠︎✋︎☠︎☝︎📪︎ 💣︎✡︎ ☹︎✋︎❄︎❄︎☹︎☜︎ 👍︎✌︎☼︎☼︎⚐︎❄︎✍︎" Aben glowed in embarrassment from the nickname his new friend has given him, as he shook his head as to say no to his question.

"🕈︎☟︎✌︎❄︎✍︎✏︎ ☠︎⚐︎📪︎ ✋︎ ☟︎⚐︎☠︎☜︎💧︎❄︎☹︎✡︎ 👎︎✋︎👎︎☠︎❼︎❄︎ ❄︎☟︎✋︎☠︎😐︎ ❄︎☟︎✌︎❄︎ ⚐︎☞︎ ✡︎⚐︎🕆︎✏︎ ✋︎❼︎💣︎ 💧︎⚐︎☼︎☼︎✡︎ ✋︎☞︎ 💣︎✡︎ ✌︎💧︎💧︎🕆︎💣︎🏱︎❄︎✋︎⚐︎☠︎ ☟︎✌︎✞︎☜︎ ⚐︎☞︎☞︎☜︎☠︎👎︎☜︎👎︎ ✡︎⚐︎🕆︎ ✋︎☠︎ ✌︎☠︎✡︎ 🕈︎✌︎✡︎✏︎" He scrambled as Wraith could only smile in amusement. Reassuring him it was alright. "💧︎⚐︎📪︎ 🕈︎☟︎✌︎❄︎ 💣︎✌︎✡︎ ✡︎⚐︎🕆︎ 👌︎☜︎ 👎︎⚐︎✋︎☠︎☝︎ ✋︎☠︎ ❄︎☟︎☜︎ 🕈︎⚐︎⚐︎👎︎💧︎📪︎ ✡︎⚐︎🕆︎☠︎☝︎ ⚐︎☠︎☜︎✍︎" Aben looked up as he went on and on with the situation about Azure, and told him his reason for going in to the woods.

Wraith lit up in excitement, it was practically stalking, a field in which he was very good at, and it helped that he was a spirit. He could hide easily just by making himself invisible! "👍︎✌︎☠︎ ✋︎ 👍︎⚐︎💣︎☜︎ ✌︎💧︎ 🕈︎☜︎☹︎☹︎✍︎✍︎✍︎ ✋︎ ☹︎⚐︎✞︎☜︎ ❄︎⚐︎ ☟︎☜︎☹︎🏱︎ ⚐︎❄︎☟︎☜︎☼︎💧︎(✏︎ ♏︎⬧︎◻︎♏︎♍︎♓︎♋︎●︎●︎⍓︎ ♓︎♐︎ ⧫︎♒︎♏︎ ◻︎♏︎❒︎⬧︎□︎■︎ ✋︎ ♑︎♏︎⧫︎ ⧫︎□︎ ♒︎♏︎●︎◻︎ ♓︎⬧︎ ⍓︎□︎◆︎📬︎📬︎📬︎)" Wraith said the last part in a far more ancient Wingdings, so Aben couldn't quite understand what he said. But agreed to the question he understood.

Soon enough, the two went down the winding path where Wraith last saw Azure.

They will soon enough meet,
But tragedy will soon strike as they too make a promise.
