The Royal Promise...The Promised Neverland Noremma : Rayanna

Havoc.

As Prince Norman's eyes fluttered open he say up in the sick bed he lay in. And soon all the pain inflicted his body. Everything hurt.

"I'm not good with horses am I?" He asked himself slowly.

"Nope, not at all." A deep voice answered.

"K-king Yuugo?" Norman sat up in his bed.

"Hello Norman, call me Father or Dad, whichever you like." He waved.

King Yuugo sat on a stool beside a drawer with books and stationary. He leaned on the drawer and observed Norman, while it was quiet.

Something is bothering him.
I can see it in his eyes.

"Anything the matter? You seem perplexed F-ather..." When Norman said Father, his throat became dry.

"Oh nothing. I came to check on you. I know the TCRG is in a few weeks or so, but I'm already excited. That crash wasn't as bad as mine." King Yuugo shrugged.

"Yours? You crashed in a Chariot?"

"Yup, only once. After that I became better. And over time I even won against Sonju. But that was just when we were racing. When I battled against Lucas, like I said before, I won all the time." King Yuugo boasted.

"Oh..." Norman looked to the side where a cold breeze followed.

"What were you thinking when you crashed?" King Yuugo asked.

"What do you mean?"

"When I first crashed, I was thinking about Diana because we had met only a few weeks ago but I hadn't seen he face to face after that. If you weren't thinking about anything or anyone then you wouldn't have crashed." King Yuugo explained.

"Um, I can't really remember..." Prince Norman avoided the question.

"Are you lying?"

"H-how could you tell?"

"Ray used to always say he couldn't recall what happened or change the subject but he just wouldn't tell me most of the time. Heck he barely tells me anything!" King Yuugo replied.

"So we're similar?" Prince Norman asked.

"In some aspects yes. Others, no. He is reckless, rude and upfront but sometimes you need someone like that. You are calm, quiet and thoughtful, other times you need someone like that too." King Yuugo said.

"What do you mean need someone?" Prince Norman asked.

"To be King." King Yuugo looked at Norman.

And then Prince Norman remembered why he was here. He was a Prince, to become a King and some day, being a King would be a reality for him.

"Anyway, I got to get to a meeting with a few near by Kingdoms , apparently there was news of some suspicious activity in the coast! I hope you have a nice time here, because you'll be here for the rest of the day! Until you recover actually." King Yuugo stood up and opened the door.

"Farewell Norman." He waved.

"The whole day? How bad was that crash?" Prince Norman rubbed his head and turned to the side of his bed.

Outside the sick room Prince Oliver, his friend Zack, and his personal assistant walked through the halls.

"SO! Today I planned to visit Prince Ray again, but he seemed busy. Instead we're going to leave and go to the bakery uptown." Prince Oliver turned to exit.

"Are you sure we can just walk around the halls like this?" Zack asked.

"Yeah, our father's are basically this and this." He stuck out his fingers and crossed them across each other.
