Even though you have study for years, you attended every meeting, learned the names of other kings, barons and dukes, even...
My fingers start to ache, I have written report six times in different languages. But, I'm done. Yesterday, I was told to help with the garden, moving rocks and brick. My muscles were sore from the workout that Van gave me. Throughout the years, my spite for my family grew. My brothers would push me around knowing I can't do anything, my parents would ignore me everywhere, I am now suppose to eat with the staff who despise me because of my father and the only protection I have is Van. My life went to shit, at least the staff took a liking to me. I am lying in bed thinking of everything that went wrong.
Butler: "(Y/N), you are to stay in you quarters while the meeting is ongoing."
I nod and thank the butler. I have found that the difference between a butler and a servant now a days is social class. Weird. I see smoke in the distance, 6 in total, the number of kingdoms approaching. I went back into reading my book.
Many hours later
It was evening, the council should have been done hours ago, I would know. There must be a heated argument or something. I took a bath and got into my noble tunic, my father 'graciously' allows me to keep dressing up like this. I look outside for the time which weirdly enough I see smoke. Was there a new kingdom established while I was . . . Wait, the smoke is getting larger. After a few seconds an explosion hits the town. I grabbed my weapons, dual wield a sword and a serrated dagger, I ran to town. As I got closer I hear screaming, people were running to the castle. I run to see pirates. I'm not strong, but the training Van put through definitely puts me up there in skill. I run past the people to find pirates with a couple corpses around them, I charge at them. They found my physique quite amusing and entirely a underestimated me. I was quick, quicker than any of them. Two slices for each of the three was all it took. I continued until I saw a women.

She was beautiful, she stared back for a bit, though I think it was more of her evaluating me. She charged at me and started to do a flurry of strikes. I feel like she was going easy on me so I pick up the pace. Eventually we are going so fast that I barely have time to dodge. This battle was raging for a while, eventually we clash swords pushing eachother. We both turn our heads to what sounds like a baby crying. Damn, I have to get them, but I can't move with this pirate on me. I look at her to see the same uncertainty on her face. I decided to relax, in turn she does as well. I then kick her in the side of her kneecap and ran towards the child's cries. It led me to a building that had a women harpooned in the front of it. The building was half on fire, I kick the front door in, crouched low and covered my mouth. The heat was creeping as the fire spread quickly. I eventually found a 3 year old girl in her bed calling out to her momma. An image of the harpooned women flashed into my mind. I picked up the child, covered her up with her sheets and ran, but I was too late the fire had spread to the door. I look around to see a window, we are on the second floor. I was about to calculate our survival chances but the fire was coming to us at an alarming rate. I jumped out of the window with my body towards the ground. If I die, at least the girl will survive. We land with a big THUD. I was go to just lay there and recover but I remembered the white haired female pirate. I got up immediately, I used my body to shield the girl from the dead women. The female pirate slowly walked up to me with her hands up.
???: "Are you okay?"
Her voice dripped like honey, it was soothing and full of motherly care. Her face was soft looking, making her almost trustworthy. But shes still a pirate. For every step she took forward, I took two back.
???: "Please . . . let me help. Your hurt."
(Y/N): "Heh, I did just jump out of a burning building." As I took back, I felt a very sharp pain in my side. "UGGHH!"
I grit my teeth and look down. There was a stick the size of shin bone stuck in my side. I could pull it out, but the chances of me staying alive for more than an hour is highly unlikely, unless . . .
???: "Look just give me the kid, I'll hide her while-!"
While she was talking, I grabbed my dagger and put the side of the hilt in my mouth. I cut her off with me yanking out the stick and scream. Next, I have to stop the bleeding.
??? POV
This boy just ripped that stake out from his side. Then he takes one of the torches. This part brought me to tears when he took it to his side, his screams muffled by the hilt of the dagger. I looked in horror, this child who must have been around 18 (only a few years younger than me) was performing self cauterization while holding a little girl. I got to say, I was impressed and saddened by this boy who was being forced to take measures in his own hands. His instincts were wasted amongst the royalties. I was going to help him when I heard my men coming.
(Y/N) POV
We both look at the noises, cheers and laughter. I wouldn't be able to survive, even without the girl. When the female pirate was distracted I took off as fast as I can.
??? POV
I knew he left, I just knew he didn't trust me either so I pretended to be distracted. I just hope he doesn't run into Sylvia. If he does, I hope sis will show mercy.
