"So..." Ario said awkwardly."I guess we're locked it."

"No we're not." Jigglypuff countered."If Mess thinks she's locking me in, she has a problem on her hands." Ario's eyes suddenly turned a dark blue as he, all of a sudden, ignited on fire. The ropes bounding Ario's hands fell off into charred ash.

"How'd you do that?"Jigglypuff asked in confusion. Ario stood up and sauntered towards Jigglypuff.

"It's called being a Royal Southern, my love." Ario answered.

"No. Your powers. They're supposed to be disabled." Jigglypuff clarified.

"Well, Messenger didn't come by today to pin me down and disable my Southern mark, so I'm okay."

"Hey, I almost forgot!" Went a muffled voice from the other side of the locked door. The door swung open to show messenger holding a large batch of rope in one hand and tape in the other.

"I'll only be a minute." Messenger assured to Jigglypuff while glaring at Ario. In one deft movement, Messenger jumped towards Ario and grasped him by the neck.

"Messenger, let go of me!" Ario yelled but Messenger didn't stop. She gagged Ario with the tape and bound his arms to the central computer.

"Have a good day, Messenger smiled and walked out the room. Jigglypuff sighed and untied the gag disabling Ario's ability to speak.

"Thanks." Ario said as Jigglypuff unwrapped the tape from his mouth.

"No problem." Jigglypuff responded.

"Why'd you do that though, my love? You'll drag Her Royal Pain in the ass back in here." Ario questioned.

"Why do you call me your love?" Jigglypuff said, countering a question with a question.

"Well because you are my love, General. I love you. Now, get out of here before Ms. Dragolia comes back in here with homicide in her eyes." Following Ario's orders, Jigglypuff left the room. But she couldn't help but smile as she walked to her room.

The prince loves me, She thought. I wonder how this is gonna end.
