The Royalties [Watty's 2k16] (My Year End Story)

Her Highness 9

So's POV (The 4th Prince)

So our 17th princess' mother was a warrior? No wonder that she was also a good fighter. She grow up with her alone. Yes, she might be in her parents in Suju but she was locked up in that palace for 16 years. When she told me her story since she was still young until how she came up with what she was now, I can't deny the fact that she was such a fearless lady. That even the King of Suju which is her adopted father, she cross its boundries. I was only listening to the King's story, it's too obvious that he said those things because he wants to bring back the palace alive. I sigh and remember how we met.

Flashback..

I went to the Monks Mountain because they are the reason why my mother did not sleep well and they always give her a threat that they will kill her. She was bothered and losing herself most of the time. And I just can't watch my mother like that, so I decided to end her nightmare. I already reach the mountain. It's been a long time since I've been here. I walk through the small road and stop on the center. It's too impossible that they are not here.

I closed my eyes and feel the presence of the people here. Darn! This is not the presence of the falling monks. It seems like, it was.... it was... the falling assassins! Damn. Did they change their location? I opened my eyes and they started to attacked me one by one. I bring out my sword and started to kill them. They are not worth living. Afterall, these assassins was also a useless one. They all deserved to die.

After I kill them all, I saw a wooden door in front of me. I was about to open it when a dagger flew towards me.

"Darn it!" I said in annoyance. I feel the sting in my face, it hits me. Tsskk! I was trying to feel other's presence but I can feel no one. It's quite different.

"I have been watching your moves and how you kill these people." I can't see anyone until I saw someone on the top of the wooden house.

"W-Who are you?" She was covering with a black dark veil with her bangs. So, technically, her eyes was only the part on her face that can be seened by anyone.

"I guess I should be the one asking you such thing, young man." My anger grew further. Even she's she, I will never hesitate to end her life. Tss. I was only staring at her, same as she.

"I have been protecting these people for almost a year, but you just end their life in just a blink of an eye..." Who is she really?

"...I did not bother to interupt with your fight with them for I might kill you." She jump off to face me. I was surprise of what she said. I guess she's too young to said those.

"Don't underestimate me, young lady. If I can kill these people by myself, then, I can also kill you as much as I want." But instead of running away, she just laugh.

"HAHAHAHA! Do you think I'm that easy?" My patience was now as small as a light of a candle flickering. Say something more, one wrong word and I can kill you.

"I'm not afraid of you, the so-called- wolf dog." Because of what I've heard I attacked her, lift my sword and was about to break her body but her reflexes are damn fast good enough for her to avoid my attacked. While I was on her position, she was now nowhere until I feel her sword pointing to my neck.

"Now, can I kill you?" I can't move my body. For my entire life, these would be my very first encounter that my life would be at the pit of death.

"But, don't worry. I can't do such thing." She removed her sword to my neck. Tss. Poor her. I turned around and attacked her for the second time but she blocked her sword to protect her body, she lift it up and I lost my balance because of the strong pressure and my sword was break down into two.
