"....This is preposterous!"
I jump. I peer into the a room with the door slightly ajar. I see a servant scurry out before handing me a feather duster and running off. He-
Okay... I breathe in.
I walk in - sneak, actually- pretending to dust the relics around the room.
"Viren, please. Sit down. Let the woman talk." King Harrow proposed as the high mage sat down with a huff.
"I'm just saying. A crown guard the princes' age would be better. As I have noticed, they listen to servants their age better than they do, Soren."
The counsel agrees.
Viren glares at the woman as she held her head high, trying not to show weakness.
"Well... Viren is right. An older, more responsible crown guard would do well with the princes. I mean, I wouldn't want my boys running around like hooligans under leadership of a young man-"
"Or woman." I interrupt, suddenly.
Everyone turns to me. I shrink, unwillingly, "Sorry."
"She's right." the king states, thoughtfully, "It would be even worse if the woman has ill intentions."
"Who even are you?" Viren asks, harshly.
I internally roll my eyes, "I'm a simple servant here, High Mage. Yet, I do recommend attending anger management classes. Your tone is quite disrespectful."
The counsel chuckles as I continue on, "I know, my say has no importance, but I suggest trying the counsel's idea, your Majesty. Perhaps consider an ultimatum. A junior crown guard will take up the responsibilities of the crown guard for a time, then Soren will continue his post for the same amount of time. Then, we- you, sorry, could compare the results and-"
"Foolishness! Only an idiot would suggest such a thi-"
King Harrow interrupts Viren, "I agree. What is your name, girl?"
"Y/n, Your Majesty." I state, politely.
"Well, Y/n, I like your idea. Effective immediately, you are the crown guard of my sons. You'll take defense classes with Soren. Your quarters will be the one adjacent to Callum and Ezran's rooms. You are dismissed."
"What?!" Viren and I yell, simultaneously.
"T-Thank you...?"
"WHAT?!" Viren was livid so I quickly excuse myself for 'fresh air' and ran out of there.
"Whathefreak?Whathefreak?Y/n,haveyougottenyourselfinto?" I paced the hall, pulling at my hair.
"WOAH?! You okay, n/n?" Someone asks. I spin around to see Callum as he towered over me by an inch or so.
"Well..." I sigh, but before i could say more I was engulfed by a hug.
I sigh into it, "I think messed up."
"Tell me, what's up?"
I cover my face, before proceeding to tell him EVERYTHING.
Callum laughs and I smile, "What?"
"Stop stressing, Y/n."
"Fine, but I fail then... Soren for you."
"No pressure, no stress."
"No pressure, no stress." I repeat before looking up at him and bursting out laughing. We stay there, laughing at absolutely nothing before we went to hs room to draw.
"What are you drawing?" Callum tried to peak but I shove him away with a grin.
"Somebody- No. Some-people. But don't peak." I warned.
Callum raised his arms in mock surrender as we laughed, yet again.
Time passed and I forgot myself. Tonight was a full moon.
Ezran came running in, "They're sending us away. There's Moon-what's-it-called elves on the loose.
You got this, Y/n. Just stay away from the moonlight.
"C'mon, let's go!" Ezran states, grabbing my hand.
"Ezran?! Can't you see? It's not a game! They want us to hide, 'cause they're gonna kill dad." CAllum yells as he storms out.
Bait turns red and Ez's expression drops. I frown, "Hey!"
I sigh, going after the boy. I give Callum a look.
Cal leans against the door to Ez's room he had previously stormed off through,"Ezran, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said what I said. I'm sure everything's going to be fine. Come on, later you can call me a jerkface, and I'll do the crazy jerkface dance for you."
I raise a brow.
"It is a dance of stupitude and sorry-ness." Callum adds but Slumps over his shoulders when his cheer up attempt does not work, "Okay, well, I'm going to go grab some books for our trip. We don't have much time, so I'll be back to help you pack in a few."
"Give him time." I state as I scurry off. I needed a coat or a hood to protect myself.
{TIMESKIP coz this episode was chaotic}
"-not who I thought you..." Callum points in fear, "You're one of those, with the pointy..."
Smiling the elf asks, "Oh, you don't like my ears?"
Callum stutters, "No. I mean, yeah. Yes, I do, I guess. I mean... I meant the pointy swords." HE flinches as she pulls her swords out again. I hide in the shadows and Callum sees me.She points her sword at Callum, "That's far enough. I'm looking for someone."
"Oh. Uh, did you check back there?" He points to the side where I was hiding.
When the elf glances over to where he had pointed, I take the opportunity to grab a nearby drape and pull it on top of her. Callum freaks out then runs off, screaming and panting heavily, stumbling on his way. The elf cuts the drapes open with a twirl of her blades, then rushes after Callum. I stop her and block her path by pushing over a knight's armor, but she jumps against the wall, leaping over it. The elf sends a blade at me and I dodge but my poor hood took the blow. With the drape gone, I was exposed to the moonlight.
"Crap." I mutter as my skin morphs somewhat similar to the elf's.
The elf pauses, "You're one of us."
I shook my name, "No. I'm not. I don't attack people without reason."
The elf run towards me and I shove her off but I fall in the process. She keeps her balance, grabs her blade and rushes off. I groan and run after her.
As she threatens to catch up to him, Callum makes his way outside, where he runs past two soldiers.
I manage to catch up to them. After The elf managed to fight off two guards and Cal fangirling, we ended up somewhere, i guess.
"-only two targets tonight."
I approach them, "Wait, two? What do you mean?"
"Y/n? Oh thank th- What's up with the glowy ski- Are you one of them?"
"Shut up!" The elf yells.
"Look, I'm here for the king. And I'm also here for his son, Prince Ezran." She states.
Callums widens eyes in shock.
I huff, "You can't. That's not fair. Why would you hurt someone who's done nothing wrong?"
"Humans cut down the King Of Dragons, and destroyed his only egg, the Dragon Prince." The elf points her blade at Callum's throat and I edge forward, cautiously, "Justice will not be denied."
I look down, "I see."
Callum looks at her with a serious expression, "Well, then, you've found me. I am Prince Ezran."
"Wait, what?! NO!" I scream.
The elf steps closer toward Callum, "I have to do this. I'm sorry. I don't want to, but I have to."
I grab her hand, "
Why? You know this is wrong."
"An assassin doesn't decide right and wrong, only life and death.""That's very clever, but come on, really? How does this solve anything?" Callum observes."This is justice. Humans attacked us unprovoked." The elf replied. "So it's okay for you to do the same thing? Look, I know what you mean. My father, he- he was killed because of this- this whole dispute." I admit.
"Well, no. It's not the same thing, because we're attacking you provoked." The elf states."Then it's a cycle. You hurt me, someone will get revenge against the elves. It won't end." Callums states.
"Callum. Y/n."
The elf, Callum and I both turn our heads to look at a portrait of a woman with sheep on the wall."Psst, Callum. Y/n~"
"Shh, go away." I mutter.
"I found something."
"Are you talking to that painting?"
I chuckle, nervously, "Uh, why would I do that?"
"It's not a good time."
"You mean, because you're with a girl? You do the same thing with Y/n-"
The elf steps toward the painting and opens the path behind it, revealing Ezran and Bait.
"Callum? What are you doing here?~" I say through gritted teeth.
"What do you mea-"
"Yeah, Callum. Who is she?" Ezran asks, not catching on.
"Ez-"
"You're not Prince Ezran! You lied." The girl yells, angrily.
"Okay, how is that worse than trying to kill someone?" I ask, pushing Ez and Cal behind me.
"Wait. Wanna see my pet."
"Your wha- Argh!"
"Run."
Someone grabs my hands and pull me with them as I rub eyes with the other hand, too dazzled to do anything for myself.
After running more, pushing more buttons... Wait-
We make our way down the stairs and end up in Viren's secret castle chamber, where Ezran pulls a lever to close the passage behind them. We watch the stairs pull away while we bring some distance between ourselves and the entrance.
"Yes!" I cheer, high-fiving Ez but missing."You're sure she won't be able to follow us?" Callum asks."No way. It took me over a month to figure out that combination," Ez confirms.
We flinch as the door rumbles and appears to reopen, and watch as the elf descends into the room on top of the stairway.
"But how did you..."
"I just pressed all the stones with the jelly handprints." The elf states, dryly. Ezran facepalms, leaving a jelly handprint on his forehead. The girl steps closer, letting her eyes wander through the room, discovering the bodies of animals inside strange jars."What is this place? Runaan is right. There's nothing in humans worth sparing." She points her blade at the boys, who back away in fear, "Time's up. Humans destroyed the egg of the Dragon Prince. There must be justice."
"I-"
"Wouldn't be so sure." A voice adds.
