<><><><><><><><><>

I entered the throne room still wearing my leather vest and pants I had left on the ship I now stood snugly in a clean black shirt and pants that kept me warm from the harsh winds of aurtum the crew had decided to wait out side on the grass all except neon the others didn't want to be in the presence of royalty

"what about me?" I asked them they simply scratched there head

"you one of us" they said simply

as I walked through the double doors I looked back to Neon who was smiling and looking around like this was all new which if I knew my pearents nothing new stayed around for any longer then a week before it was repleace

after a brief conversation with the guards they rather reluctantly let us through and by us I mean me they wouldn't let Neon in so he waited out side with the guards I walked in the guards bowed to me and introduced me to my parents which I didn't find at all necicary bacause of the surprised looks on their faces the guards closed the doors and they stared at me in disbelief a few seconds past before they stood up and came closer

"wow" they said

"we thought you would never would have actually grown up" said my mother

I was then suddenly grabbed in a tight bear hug pain flowed through me causing me to flinch I was place down gently

"how have you been?" my father said quickly "or more to the point where have you been what have you been doing"

"well" I said "I just came from brack balla and met the king"

my mothers face seemed to spark with happyness I knew that look and I shook my head

"it's not like that mother"

my father began to step back turning and walking until he was next to my mother

"okay" they said as they walked back towards the thrones their inspection finished I

"all well with you?" my mother asked

"um yes?" I said

"good" they said "we can call back the marriage" I took a step back

"wow" I said "straight away you didn't even hear if I was going to stay or not?" I edged back slowly

"well you are and you will" my father stated firmly

"I'm over eighteen" I told him "so you don't have the jurisdiction to push me into marriage"

"we do" they said "and we will"

I backed away the turned and pushed the double doors open knocking the guards against the wall

"get them" said the king and queen who I now no longer clasifie as my parents

"come on" tugging Neons sleeve Neon looked behind him "don't look back" I hissed

then began to walk a bit faster as to extend the gap between the guards and us we finally got out side I bet over placing mmy hands on my knees as I tried to calm myself I turned to the crew

"leaving" I said pointing to the ship some 2000 meters away

the rattling of the guard armour could be heard miles away as the crew looked to me a smile on there faces

"in trouble already?" said Gallent

"get moving" I growled

"yes captain" they chimed as they all got up and began to walk

"double time" I yelled

as they broke into a steady jog smiles still visible on there faces

"come on" I said tugging Neons sleeve again as we ran across the small bridge

guards close behind as the crew split into three groups and I tugged Neons sleeve as he followed me to where a group of crates laid discarded

"dead end" he squeaked his voice betraying his fear I sighed

"have a little faith in me will you I've lived here for a long time" I told him shaking my head

I le t Neon go and bounded up the crates that made a stair case Neon followed close behind

"hows your roof jumping skills?" I said as we came to a huge gap

"um they need work" he squeaked

"well lets brush up on them" I said quickly "not better time then the present"

I flipped over the gap landing on all fours I turned back just as Neon did the same but kind of well tumbled was not the right word he more or less rolled landing with a thump on the roof I smiled then looked up and saw the guards who looked at the gap then up to us and back to the gap

"suckers" I said

motioning Neon on the guards yelled curses at us as we sped away running out of there sights
