Hikori was hanging out in the palace with Irei, under the intense gaze of the castle guards. They had made it to the throne room when the doors burst open, startling the duo as the two Kings sat up straight in their thrones.
When Hikori stood to the side, infront of the guards, Irei stood by his dad; Izuku. From the doors, stormed in a male with spiky blonde hair in a barbarian like outfit. Behind him was a male wearing similar gear but with red spiky hair. A girl with blonde hair stormed in, standing between the two.
"SHITTY DEKU!" The male cried. "WHERE IS IT?!"
"Where's what, Kacchan?" Deku asked with full honesty.
"The golden dragon tooth necklace that is always around my princess's neck but somehow isn't there now?!"
The king's, prince, Bakugo and his family turned towards Hikori; whom had his hands behind behind his back, avoiding eye contact, whistling and rocking back and forth.
"Hikori...?!" Irei began. "Where is it?"
"Aw come on!" Hikori protested. "How can you prove I stole anything?!"
"From this, you little brat!" Bakugo growled, holding out the boy's satchel as Denki, Hitoshi and Aizawa came into view.
Hikori's face turned to one of fear. The Dragon Princess stalked over to Hikori, grabbing him by the collar.
"Tell me where you hid it you pathetic asshole...!" She growled.
"Eijitski." The red head said sternly. "Let him go."
"I didn't steal anything!" Hikori protested, throwing up his hands defensively. "I was trading items to try and get some exotic spices and coffee beans...!"
"So you're saying you traded my daughter's necklace away?!"
"Katsuki." Shoto began, standing up. "I realise you are the King of the Dragons in your kingdom but the thing is; you're in my Kingdom. You don't just get to march in and start accusing our citizens of a theft. Sure Kaminari is on his final strike but I have no choice but to believe him this time."
"But that brings me to a question," Deku continued. "When did you find Eijitski's jewels missing?"
"Last night." Eijiro replied. "She was wearing them that night but when she woke up this morning, they were gone."
"Your Highness." Irei began. "You're kingdom is miles away; a two day trek at least. I do not believe Hikori could've gotten there and stolen the jewellery that quickly as well as returning the same night."
"He's right, you know." Eijiro agreed. "We got her so quickly because I shifted into a dragon and flew us here."
"I saw Hikori around the town last night, during the Late evening markets." Aizawa began, Hitoshi nodding. "So Hikori's story checks out. He couldn't've gotten to your kingdom even if he tried."
"Then where is it?!" Katsuki cried.
"Do you have anyone in your kingdom that could betray you?" Hitoshi asked.
"Fuck no! They would be exiled otherwise!"
"Maybe someone managed to slip under your radar." Hikori mumbled.
"Shut up, you dick!" Eijitski snapped.
"Fuck no! Let me speak my mind! I have every right to be trying to defend my own honour! Sure I am legally labelled as a suspect due to my course of life but I can still prove my innocence!"
Accusations and arguments erupted though the throne room.
"QUIET!" Shoto snapped, standing up and ice emerging from his side and travelling along the ground while his right burst into flames. This got everyone quite. "We will deal with the thievery. Although incidents that happen in your kingdom are usually none of our concern, we are still friends and allies. Now, Eijiro, Katsuki, Denki, Hitoshi and Aizawa. If you would follow me and Izuku, we can discuss our course of action to regain Eijitski's necklace. The children can be supervised by Sir Zen."
Once the adults left, followed by the older guards, Zen joined the sides of the other three.
"No way am I waiting for the adults to find my jewels." Eijitski scoffed with a roll of her eyes as she turned to leave. "I'm gonna find them myself."
"With all due respect, Princess Kirishima, but you were ordered by the king's to be under my watch...!" Zen panicked as he followed, Hikori and Irei following in hot pursuit.
"Don't care. They aren't my parents nor my rulers so I don't follow their orders."
"Kirishima!" Irei exclaimed once he grabbed her arm. "Heir to heir; wouldn't it be best if we followed the orders given to us? I mean; our kingdoms are allies and our parents are friends after all."
"Don't care." Eijitski pulled out of his grip. "I want my jewels back and I'm not waiting a millennium for the adults to do it."
"Then let us help."
Eijitski turned to face them. She eyed them over.
"A Knight, A Prince and A Thief? Yeah. No."
"Please, Kirishima...!" Hikori protested. "This will be the only way I can confirm my innocence...! If I had witnesses of me not having the jewels in my possession, then the chance if me being exiled will lower to nothing! Well this time anyways... BUT THAT'S BESIDE THE POINT! Please...! I really need this, Kirishima...!"
Eijitski analysed his face and noticed that he was dead serious. She let out an annoyed groan and lowered her head.
"Fine. But if you do anything that makes me re-think my decision, then I'll leave your sorry asses where we stand."
The other three looked at her and nodded.
"So? How am I going to be escorting you lot to the Dragon Kingdom?" Zen questioned. "Because I doubt Kirishima-san is strong enough to carry us all."
"I can too, but the thing is I don't want to." Eijitski retaliated.
"Then we'll hail a carriage instead." Irei smiled.
They began to walk until they noticed a figure with blue hair and circular glasses standing in the centre of a crowd.
"Hear yee, Hear yee!" They cried. "A thievery was committed in the Kingdom of Dragons! An item of great value and connection to the Princess and King Katsuki was stolen right under the princess's gaze!"
The group wandered over and Eijitski snatched the scroll from the figure.
"Hey!" They cried.
"Hey yourself!" Eijitski snapped. "Why are you sharing this information with the whole of the fucking kingdom?!"
"It is my job, My'lady. I'm not the Kingdom's messenger for nothing. Ah! Prince MT! It's nice to see you!"
"The same here...?"
"Oh! Pardon my rudeness! I'm Iida Hanna! The Kingdom's junior messenger! Please address me via They/Them pronouns."
"No problem. This is my friend; Sir Zen, my boyfriend; Kaminari Hikori and the Kingdom's princess Ally; Kirishima Eijitski."
"Do you know where we can hail a carriage?" Hikori questioned.
"You can hail a carriage anywhere!" Iida then held her pointer finger and thumb in their mouth before letting loose a sharp whistle.
A carriage, drawn by a brown mare, trotted up to a stop before them. All of them jumped into the back.
"To the nearest town outside the kingdom, please!" Iida smiled before jumping in the back.
"What are you doin?!" Eijitski snapped.
"Joining you on your journey, Your highness!" They smiled.
"The more the merrier!" Hikori smiled back while Eijitski let out an annoyed groan.
The carriage jolted as the horse began to trot out of the kingdom, the small group huddled in the back. Hikori smiled; this was going to be fun.
