The Power of the Prince -MiniCat/WildLadd

~ Chapter 2 ~

Mini's PoV

       Tyler brings me to a pub where he told his friends to meet us at. I look up at the quaint establishment and notice a big sign on the front, the word Bersabee Tavern written in all caps. I guess that's the name of this place... "C'mon, they're in here!" Tyler calls, snapping me away from my thoughts. "Okay." I say as I follow him inside. He leads me over to a table with two people sitting at it. One of them is wearing a long, red, leather trench coat with two white stripes on each sleeve and a pair of white wings on the back. The other is wearing a similar trench coat except it's blue and there are three dark blue strips on the wrists of the sleeves.
       "Ayyyyyy, Tyler! Whose your new friend?" The one in red asks. "His name is Craig, I just met him today." Tyler states, taking a seat in the booth. He looks up at me and pats the seat next to him, motioning for me to sit there. I do as he asks and sit, staying confined to myself with my head down. "And I was here thinking I knew everyone in the little town~" The one in blue states with a chuckles.
       "Well, he isn't really from this town..." Tyler draws out, scratching the back of his neck. Both of the men raise their eyebrows in confusion. "What?" They say in sync. "Well, where are you from?" The one in red asks me. I keep quiet, too nervous to answer. "The thing is... I found him in Vetita Forest while out hunting. He says that he grew up there." Tyler answers for me.
       Vetita Forest? That's the name of the place I've called home? How come I never knew this??? "Dammit Tyler! What did we tell you about going in there to hunt?! You know of the guards catch you in there, the Prince will have you executed immediately!" The one in red exclaims in a hushed tone. "I can't help it! There's no other place to hunt because of those fuck boys Venatores! They've wiped all the other woodland areas clean! Not even Naturae Park has a single living thing left in it because of those royal ass kissers!" Tyler complains, crossing his arms.
"Never mind that! Tyler just told us that this guy grew up in Vetita fucking Forest! How the fuck did you do that?!" The one in blue points out. "Um... I-I don't know... I just did." I reply timidly. "Well, who were you with?" The one in red questions. "Wha?" I ask with an eyebrow raised. "You couldn't have survived in there your whole life! Who raised you? Your mom? Your dad? Who?" He asks. "N-No one did. T-Tyler is the very first person I've ever seen aside from myself..." I say quietly, a little embarrassed. "That can't be true! You wouldn't know your name if you didn't have someone to give it to you. Fuck, you wouldn't even know how to speak English!" The red one says in disbelief. "I-I just knew! I d-don't know how I knew, but I did! I was just born knowing, I guess..." I answer, but neither of them believe me.
       "It may seem impossible, but I believe him, especially after what I saw him do earlier." Tyler says, rubbing my back for support. "What did he do?" The one in blue questions. "I saw him use two elements and two magic types at once." Tyler says with a grin. "What? That's not possible! Mages are assigned with only one element and one magic type!" The one in red states. "That's what I said at first! But I saw it for myself!" Tyler defends. "Prove it." The one in blue says bluntly. I look over at Tyler before looking back at his two friends.
       I slowly roll up my sleeves to reveal all of the element tattoos. The guys stare in awe as they look at my arms in wonder. "The ice one is on my back, so I can't really show you that one." I say as I roll my sleeves back down. "Holy shit..." The one in red says with wide eyes. "Dude, that's fucking badass!" The one in blue exclaims. "I'm Jonathan, and this is Evan! Sorry for not introducing ourselves earlier, we were a little skeptical of you!" He adds with a smile.
       Out of no where, a man walks over to our table, seemingly lost. "Hiya there, lads! I'm from Dives and decided to come to the suburbs for a little vacation, but this map is doing jack shit to help me! You guys seem like you know your way around, so do you think you could help me out?" A man with a strange accent asks politely. He wears a black jacket with green streaks here and there and black pants. He gives us a cheery smile and a wave. "Sure! I'm Evan, this is Jonathan, Tyler, and Craig! We'll show you around!" Evan chirps. "Thank you, thank you, thank you! I'm Sean, but my friends call me Jack! It's nice to meet you guys!"
