Hwarang (ON HOLD; UNDER EDITING)

Third Person POV

Su-Jin grabbed her coat and sword as she carefully opened her room's door and made her way down the stairs quietly, trying her best not to make a sound.

Just as she was about to open the main door, she heard someone clear their throat.

"Park. Su. Jin.", the voice said in a stern tone.

Su-Jin gulped nervously. She knew that voice anywhere. She turned around to face the voice.

"Yes, father?", she smiled.

"Where do you think you're going?", he asked.

"Well, I am going to...the village. Yes, the village!", Su-Jin lied.

The king raised an eyebrow, "And why would you want to go to the village?".

"Because~...I'm hungry, and I would like to buy some bread.", she answered.

"You do not need to go out of the palace, we could have Ah-ro go for you."

"Ani, ani! I...would...like to be...um...independent! Yes! Independent! I can handle this, father.", she convinced the king.

The king sighed in defeat, "Arasseo, but have Ah-ro accompany you."

Su-Jin smiled and ran up to Ah-ro's room to wake her up.

"Ah-ro! Get up!", she lightly shook her assistant.

Ah-ro groaned, "Ah~, why, you're highness?"

"Come with me to the village."

"What!?", she shot up. "No, no, no! The king might get angry with me! I-"

"Father agreed. He told me to wake you up so we can go. Now get up!"

Ah-ro groaned once again while lying back down.

"Hurry!", Su-Jin said.

"Ah! I am!", she said and got up from her bed.

"Come on!"

With that, Su-Jin went downstairs to the throne room, leading to the main doors to wait for Ah-ro. Ah-ro is her assistant and friend.

Ah-ro fixed her hair and outfit and walked down the stairs to see the princess waiting for her.

Su-Jin nodded at Ah-ro as she pulled up her hood and mask. Both girls started to make their way to the stables to get their horses and got on them. They went over to the palace gates and headed out to the village.
