The Summoner And The Ninja

Chapter 5

Rydia woke up in the morning to Edge's bed all alone. She stretched and yawned until she saw a letter on the knob of the door. She lazily gets out of bed and walks to the door to receive the letter.

Good morning sweetheart
Did you get enough beauty sleep?
Anyways am out to an urgent meeting this morning. So please make yourself comfortable here at the castle. If you want, go to the dining room for breakfast, I should be able to meet you there.
-Your awesome ninja
P.s. not "Edward"

Hmm nope it's Edward she joked to herself. Soon she began to get dressed and started to leave to the dining room. As she was walking her way to the dining room, she notice how much Eblan improved, it's hard to believe that it was in ruins. Boy this is a big castle, she kept getting confused and lost to get to her destination. Until after a few trials and errors she found the room. And sure enough he was there waiting for her.

"Good morning. How was your meeting?" She said. Edge sat up with speed and pulled her chair for her as she sat down. "It went okay, anyways a letter has comes from Cecil and it's for you." He firmly said.

Stunned, she took the letter and read.

Dearest Rydia,
It saddens Rosa and I that we were not able to meet and host your presence at Baron. But there has been important news you need to be informed of. If possible would you be able to come to Baron and speak of this matter? Respond in fast speed as I prepare an airship to correspond to Eblan to get you.
-King of Baron Cecil
P.s give Edge my regards.

"Important news? I wonder what's its about." She spoke.

"Well I guess you'll have to go and figure it out." Edge requested.

"What about you? Won't you miss me?"

"Of course I would, but there is something I need to tell you as well." His voice was serious.

"During the meeting I was informed of rogue ninjas who used to belong to the kingdom, return to Eblan to assassinate me." He spoke.

"No they can't! Why do they want to do such a thing?" She cried.

"These rogue ninjas don't agree with the relations with other lands, nor want me as King for other reasons."

"Normally I wouldn't be worried about this, as I can easily whoop their asses in seconds, but now am worried about them hurting those close to me." He spoke. "I didn't used to have any one close to me, until you came however and I will not risk your safety for my selfish needs of you being here." He grabbed both of her hands.

"I love you too much to risk anything happening to you. So I want to ask you to go to Baron to settle things with Cecil and stay there for a while." He begged. "Can you wait for me? Just give me 3 months to get rid and punish these losers okay. 3 months and I will personally come and escort you back to Eblan."
He firmly spoke.

"Am sorry I didn't know my presence can lead to such an inconvenience for you." She swallowed.

"No! You're not an inconvenience to me. Rydia I just don't want anything happening to you here, because of me, I don't know what I'll do if am responsible for you being attack to get to me." He looked down at her with such emotion."Please my dear, wait for me at Baron. I promise when I return to you these rebels will be taken care of." He said with confidence.

"Okay, I'll go to Baron. Just promise me that you'll try and get rid of them sooner." She responded with her blue eyes.

"They won't be a problem when I come and get you, you have my word gorgeous. And just to be safe I'll be writing to you in secret, don't be worried if I don't respond as fast okay? I don't want the rebels tracking you down."

"Okay I'll take that into consideration." She spoke.

"Great my princess, well finish breakfast and I'll inform Cecil to send an airship." He ruled.

"Okay" she responded.

As he left she was nervous for his safety and his promise. She had an uneasy feeling about all this.

The next day Baron soldiers came to the palace to escort Rydia to Baron.

"Be safe Rydia and try not to miss me so much. I know I won't be there to make you happy and full of life but you can do it." He joked.

"Don't worry I won't be miserable without your presence if anything it well be a get away vacation." She growled.

"Oh someone is feisty today." "Enjoy you vacation with Rosa and good luck with the news of Cecil." With that he grabbed her into a hug and kissed her.

"Haha well am off, don't destroy the kingdom." She retorted.

"Don't cry on Rosa's shoulder when you miss me." He smirked.

After there hug, Baron soldiers took her belongings and took her to the airship and left to Baron.
