"Come on! Is that all you got?" you taunted, a smile appearing on your face as the cheering from the crowd increased.

The black haired female advanced towards you, not holding back as she threw several punches and kicks in your direction. You successfully managed to block all but one, with blood quickly filling your mouth as her knuckles came into perfect contact with your jaw. Stumbling back into the crowd, you were prevented from falling down as a few people happily kept you on your feet.

They cheered as they pushed you forward again and a smirk appeared on your opponents face as you felt a trickle of blood fall from your lip. Putting the tip of your fingers to your lips, you felt a small cut in the corner of your mouth which caused you to smile. You gave her a quick nod of respect before you prepared yourself to fight back, but a distinct voice yelling through the crowd stopped you from doing so.

"Princess ~~~~~! What do you think you're doing?!" the voice exclaimed, causing the crowd to go silent as you rolled your eyes in annoyance.

"I'm having a bit of fun, Angeal. Is that a problem?" you asked as you spun around to face the tall and very well built ravenette, not even flinching at the glare he was giving you.

"This is not how a princess should be acting!" he hissed before grabbing your arm and pulling you away from the crowd.

"See you for round two tomorrow, Tifa!" you called back, earning a smile and wave from Tifa before Angeal pulled you forward, making you stumble.

"You need to start behaving yourself, Princess ~~~~~."

"And you need to lighten up, Angeal. And stop calling me princess... ~~~~~ will do just fine." You grumbled as you pulled your arm out of his grasp and proceeded to fold your arms over your stomach.

"~~~~~," Angeal began, with you smiling towards him because he didn't address you as 'princess'. "For the sake of your parents... please start behaving yourself." He explained.

"I wasn't born into the royal family, and neither was Kairi for that matter. I don't do prim and proper." You mumbled, earning a sympathetic gaze from Angeal.

"Don't pout, Pri- uh, ~~~~~," Angeal quickly corrected himself as you shot him a deadly glare. "We are approaching the castle," he explained. "Time to walk and behave like the princess I know you can be. Shoulders back, head held high, walk lightly on your feet, your footsteps should never be heard..." he explained as he pushed your shoulders back and placed three fingers under your chin in order to lift your head up so you weren't looking at the ground.

"Maybe you should be a princess, Angeal." You chuckled, making him glare towards you before a small smirk appeared on his face.

"Princess ~~~~~! There you are!" Zack called out as he waved towards you and Angeal, a brilliant smile on his face as he did so. "Where did you find h-" Zack began, but was cut off as you gave him a hard punch to the stomach. Zack hunched over in pain as he gasped for air and Angeal gave you a disapproving look as you cracked your knuckles.

"Don't call me princess!" you exclaimed, getting ready to hit Zack again.

"Don't punch me!" Zack shot back as he stood up and then put you in a head lock, ruffling your hair as you tried your hardest to get out of his grasp.

"Is that the way to be treating the princess, Zack?" Sephiroth asked as he and Genesis walked towards the two of you.

"Aw, c'mon Sephiroth, she threw the first punch!" Zack whined as he let you go, the both of you chuckling lightly as Zack proceeded to throw a friendly arm around you.
