Watson's pov
I stare the prince straight in the eye. I'm not scared. I show no fear. Neither of us are showing any signs of backing down.
Gura: Ame please, don't do this.
King: You show no fear facing someone twice your size. You're either dumb or you know what you're doing.
I look at the king.
Watson: I've faced people at least four times my size. This is nothing. I have plenty of experience.
King: I like that. I'll give you a chance. If you can beat Prince Samon in a trident duel, I'll allow Gura to stay.
Samon: In Atlantis, every person that marries the princess must be able to defend her using a trident.
King: I was able to marry my wife because I knew how to defend her with a trident. Now it's your turn to show you're worthy of it.
Watson: Okay, but I don't have a trident.
One of the soldiers walk over to me and gives me a trident. It's right for my size but Samon's trident is much bigger.
Gura: Ame don't, please. You can't win you've never used a trident before.
Watson: I rather fail after trying than never try at all. If I don't try and you get taken away, I won't be able to sleep at night.
I take the trident.
Soldier: Princess Gura, please step back.
She does so. I look at her. She has a concerned look on her face. I can't blame her. There's a 99% chance I'll lose, but that other 1% is worth trying for.
King: Raise your tridents.
We both do so.
Samon: Idiot that's not how you're supposed to hold a trident!
Watson: Shut up!
King: Let the duel commence!
We both swing out tridents. They clash together. He's stronger than me. I struggle to keep my position. He quickly moves his trident. Mine was stuck on his so my trident was knocked out of my hands. He hits me with the handle of his trident. I'm knocked down.
Samon: It's over. You lost. You were never a match against me.
Watson: Do your worst.
He aims his trident at me.
Gura: Stop!!
Gura runs and stands in front of me, shielding me.
Gura: Don't hurt her! I'll marry you just please don't harm her!
Watson: Gura?
I look over at Calli and Kiara. I see Kiara angrily clutching the handle of her sword. Calli is holding her back.
Calli: Don't!
