The prince inquirys. "I want to get alittle practice in before i meet shura, youll help me right?" Kaza eagerly grabs hold of both the prince hands, the prince looks into kazas sincere eyes and gives him a amaible smile. "Know now i do, words behide meaning, i will accept happily." The prince acknowledges kazas aburpt request. "You will? I cant wait to try swordplay come on lets go!" Kaza in haste, over excitingly lets go of the prince right hand but the prince doesnt processed any farther. "Ask may i to change place not here, the flowers wish not i to harm." The prince humbly ask out of respect for the environment they are present in kaza stops as well. "Yes, anything  you say!" Kaza agrees unconditionally. "A problem have we, no swords in hand for match we can not." The prince puzzled brings into concideration. "Your right lets ask a guard, if you ask then they have to lend us them!?" Kaza suggest with wide eyes waiting in anticipation for the prince answer. "Is that to be okay, sounds work more of that need not they have." The prince hesitantly questions. "Dont worry im close to all the guards!" Kaza energetically encourages the prince. "Okay try let's." The prince reluctantly agrees. Sakura who had been standing there nervously in silence watching how close the both of them are, unable to understand what they are talking about she looks downcast with dejected eyes, she notices a hand in front of her, as she curiously looks up she finds the prince left hand stretched out towards her as he wears an accepting smile to her. "Join us you will sakura chan wont you?" The prince hapily waits for her answer. "You.. Want me to..Join you?" Sakura struggles to make eye contact but instinctively looks away. "Leave i will not without you." The prince in earnest holds his ground. "Its true once ka chan makes up his mind you cant talk him out of." Kaza playfully teases. The prince confused pauses for a moment with his hand still out. "Sure are you, that it is not to be you?" The prince questions and feels a gentle warmth on his left hand sakura quietly chuckles and accepts the prince kind offer. "I..I would like to come along." Sakura sheepishly tells them. "Yay, lets go to the guard and ask."  Kaza leads the group to the guard standing straight ahead of them, down the pathway to the castle that separates the flowers as they approch the guard he looks downwards at the trio. "Can you bring us a pair of swords for sword training." Kaza ask as he looks up to the the guard towering over them. 'Is that your command your highness." The guard ask for clarity not so much as a slight smile is seen on  his face. "If not the trouble it is." The prince responds. "Understood by your word." The guard shows them the way while the trio follows close behind sakura looks up at him in wonder. "(This is the same guard that showed mother and i to the castle.)" Sakura intimately follows him.                   

They finally get their equipment and a new scenery, they stand on a beautifully open field still located in the castle walls, the bright clear sky hangs above them with the relentless sun beating down on them, the wind picks up and leaves ever so often very fleeting but feels cool against the skin nonetheless, the two boys hold swords presented by the guard, the prince unexpectedly turn to sakura who had been with them this whole time and bows his head regrettable to her. "Sorry i very am, rude i had not mean be to leave out you of this activity sakura chan, nor for the noticing of my talk with kaza kun before." The prince honesty utters feeling sarrowfull about not paying attention to sakura. "Im sorry to sakura chan, i got to excited about the idea of training with ka chan i didnt mean to forget about you." Kaza offers his apologies as well. Sakura looks at the two boys and gets overwhelm. "I..Its no worry, so show me this training okay.?" Sakura gives them a content smile. The prince lifts his head and sees her smile. "Thank you the kind you are, i wont forget of the words you speak." The prince offers a gentle smile to her as well before he fixes his gaze upon kaza who notices and smirks at the prince with a passionate fire burning behind his eyes that rival the relentless heat of the sun shining down on them.
