Altissian Princess | Noctis Lucis Caelum x Reader [DISCONTINUED]

VI: Ardyn at Galdin Quay

Everything was packed and ready to go. The chocobos(?) were free, the fire was out, and all other things were in the truck and Regalia. You decided to ride with Cloud because riding in the truck would be way too boring for you.

As your group headed for Hammerhead with you riding Woozi, a little chat was formed. The chocobo trotted slowly to keep up with the slow pokes along with Cloud and the Fenrir.

"So are you, like, from Nibelheim?" Prompto's cheerful voice quarried the newbie joyfully. The opposing blonde nodded, keeping his freezing personality to a small degree.

You, on the other hand, seemed to have taken a small nap on your chocobo as Wisp grabbed the lead and guided Woozi and Frinli. Your sleeping face had your H/C locks framing it perfectly, Noctis looking at you with a rose color rose to his cheeks. Ignis, who was standing beside Noct, only ignored the prince's heated face.

"It rhymes with Niflheim..." Prompto gazed at the blue sky, taking out a cloth and his gun to polish it. By then, drool had completely made a waterfall from your mouth. Wisp grabbed you by the hair which you sat up and drove the chocobo all the way to Hammerhead.

"Well... there goes Y/N." Cloud muttered. Wisp sighed sorrowfully and boarded the chocobo to chase after you. The boys were left alone but soon enough they arrived with no scratches. Talking about scratches, your wound was still bandaged with new gauze and wrapping. Ignis changed it before your departure from the camp.

Once they arrived, everyone boarded their respective vehicles with their own belongings. Well. Except for you. Cloud grabbed your hand and led you to the Fenrir, where he got on with you wrapping your arms around his slim waist.

The roar of all three engines signaled the leaving of your group, Cindy having a final goodbye. The Regalia took the lead with the truck in tow then the Fenrir. Your hair was styled into a ponytail so it didn't suddenly get into your face all of a sudden. It whipped rapidly at the breakneck speeds of the vehicles along with the chocobo's feathers as it was roped to the truck to not fall.

"It has been so long since I rode a motorcycle!" You howled as Cloud drove warily yet quickly.

"Well I wouldn't believe a motorcycle roaming around in Altissia!" Cloud spoke loudly to avoid the clouding mutes of the wind. You chuckled lightly and kept quiet while grinning again from your over filled joy.

Trees passed vulgarly as Ignis led the three vehicles to a peaceful coast. While coming to Galdin Quay, you saw many rocky and unstable cliffs bordering the ocean and land. A petite path was leading out to what looked like a mine, but no one else noticed. The groaning hum of the bike made you feel safe as the Fenrir passed many onlooking daemons on the prowl. 

Again, a memory played like a theater in your mind.

~Flashback~
3rd POV

A tuft of blonde hair stuck out of the bushes, young Y/N and Noctis running towards the tuft. Currently, the duo was in Nibelheim for a vacation and they recently spotted this yellow blur. Noctis, being the romantic gentleman, grabbed princess Y/N's petite hand and led the drowsy girl to what seemed to be a boy only a few years older than them. He seemed to be practicing with a wooden sword with a young girl in the sides watching him.
"Too weak!"
The little girl complained, the blond gritting his teeth and swinging even harder. Noctis and Y/N only watched in awe, well, at least Noctis did. Y/N was seemed to have no interest in the boy himself, but his fighting techniques. She stepped forward and pointed her index finger to the boy.
"I challenge you to a duel!"
The young princess puffed her cheeks and grabbed her thin sword from her waist. The boy stopped swinging and looked to his left to see the prince and princess.
"Why would I fight a girl? I'm way too superior!"
"Because I'm training to be a great swordsman!"
The blond smirked and fully faced Y/N.
"W-wait Y/N!"
Prince Noctis tried blocking the princess where she moved away in resistance.
"This is my fight, Prince in distress."
She fixed her skirt and blazer, getting into a fighting stance and fully charged.
"Princess Y/N at your service, you?"
"Tch."
The blond thought for a moment to actually tell the princess his name or not.
"Cloud Strife."
"Then let's get this show on the road."
~Time skip~
The blond lay bruised and battered on the ground with Tifa by his side.
"Why did you beat him?!"
Y/N only threw a glare at the boy's limp body.
"He seemed so confident about beating me. I wanted to know if he really would."
The prince that was in the outskirts warily walked to the princess and held her hand shyly.
"I th-think we have to get back to the hotel, Y-Y/N."
The ravenette spoke quietly, almost inaudible.
"Fine."
Y/N turned on her heel and walked away until a hand grabbed her foot.
"Don't.leave.me!"
The boy spat out. Princess Y/N only looked back and let go of Noctis's hand. She stooped down and grabbed the boy's hand and lifted him up and set him over her shoulders.
"Both of you may not be able to carry him, so I will. Just lead us back to the hotel, Noct."
The opposing boy nodded as all four of you inched all the way to the five star resort.

~Flashback ending~

2nd POV

You leaned your head on Cloud's toned back, reminiscing those precious memories.

"We're here." The motorbike parked at a free spot and both of you got off. You gazed at the serene beach, the water splashing and fighting with the sand. You playfully grabbed Noctis's hand and led him to the coast, him taking off his jacket as he knew what you were about to do. You grabbed his left arm with both of your hands and spun around and let him go and into the water.

The poor prince swam to the surface and gasped for air. You giggled and ran in as well, jumping into the prince's arms. Ignis propped his hand on his hips and chuckled deeply along with Gladio but with Prompto laughing his butt off. Wisp disappeared again and Cloud sat in the sand, taking off armor plates and such then throwing it close to the Fenrir.

He too, jumped in and cradled both you and Noctis in his arms.

"Am I missing something?" Prompto questioned like a snail.

"Prince Noctis and Princess Y/N also visited Nibelheim a lot to visit their dear friend Cloud, where there was a scene like this when they were little kids." Gladio seemed to bellow like a dinosaur at the memory. Ignis, being the party pooper he is, grabbed all three from the water reminding them of their business.

The trio squeezed their clothes for any water and soon walked up the platform to do what was originally planned. A purple haired man stood at the opening of the restaurant, looking eerily fascinating. You took out your sword with Shiva's stone and gripped it tightly as Noctis conversed with the man with you and and Cloud staying behind as bodyguards.

The suspicious man threw a gil towards Noctis, where you charged forward a bit before Cloud held you out, but fortunately Gladio caught it. You sighed in relief and backed away as soon as the man inched forward to you.

"So you're Ravus's fiancé?"

"Why do you need to know?" You gritted your teeth as Cloud held you behind him.

"Ardyn, my dear. I hope to see you again." He took a tip of his fedora before leaving. You stared at his displeasing figure as Ardyn vanished. Noctis seemed to doubt this man, and so did you. Cloud sighed and made his way to the counter.

"Hey! Y/N! They have hunts here. Wanna take one on?!" Cloud shouted from the bar as you ran towards him and sat on a stool. "I'd love to." You took a look at the many hunts, picking one with crabs just a few feet away from the restaurant.

"I don't have a good feeling about that guy..." Gladio commented and took a swig from a water bottle that was given to him. Prompto widened his eyes at the price of the dishes.

"Can't you lower these by a tad bit of gil?" He whined pathetically.

"Nope. Sorry. We make our dishes with the best of fishes." The girl behind the counter smiled nervously.

"Aww... Hey Y/N! Can't you lower these prices? You have connections all over the world like Noct but I bet he's too lazy to take a call!"

"Nope, Prompto. Go earn the money yourself." You shot back. A quiet 'dang' was heard as Ignis wrote down a few recipes in his recipe book.

Suddenly, your arm stung like Hell. A quiet whimper escaped your lips as you bit the insides of your cheeks in pain.

"Y/N! Are you okay?" Noctis gazed at your arm in discomfort.

"Yeah, just a sting." You breathed out. Ignis adjusted his glasses then got up.

"Time to ask for a boat."
