Tina's eyes widen as she looked up at Zack. "Z-Zack...Y-You..."

"Hey don't look at me so shocked, I don't know what the fuck is going on but I sure as fuck ain't going to be with anyone but your dumb ass." Zack said seriously as he looked down at her.

She teared up as she smiled at him, she then hugged him tightly as she cried against him. "I honestly thought that I lost you! I'm glad you're still willing to be with me!"

Melody glared at the duo before a dark aura went around her. "ZACK IS SUPPOSED TO BE MINE! I WON'T ALLOW ANYONE ELSE TO TAKE WHAT'S MINE FROM ME! " She yelled out in anger

Tina got up as she sniffled wiping her eyes as she looked Melody in the eyes. "You were given the powers of your ancestor weren't you?"

"THAT'S RIGHT AND I'LL USE IT ON YOU IF I HAVE TO! I REFUSE TO GIVE ZACK UP TO A GIRL LIKE YOU!"

Tina scoffed as she shut her eyes and placed her hand out in front of her, within seconds the power that was gathering around Melody was gone and she looked stunned and confused. "W-What?! What happened!? WHERE'S MY MAGIC?!"

Zack laughed as he got up before he placed a hand on the top of Tina's head. "Tina told you she was the goddess of Magic, what she gives she can take away. Ain't that right beautiful?"

Tina blushed as she smiled up at Zack. "That's very true, I can."

Melody growled out before she got a dagger she had hiding in her sleeve out before she went straight for Tina only for Zack to be quicker and place his scythe straight up to Melody's neck as he glared at her. "Drop the dagger or I will kill you."

"You wouldn't dare kill me! If it wasn't for my family you wouldn't be known as a prince!"

"You're nothing more than a commoner now, I don't see why I should be grateful at all to you when you have nothing to give me to save your pathetic ass life. I never liked you, I grinned and bared being around you cause my mother told me 'to be nice' to you. If I was to be honest with you I never wanted to be known as a 'friend' to you. I don't want you thinking that what you saw was the real me cause it sure as hell wasn't. I'm not going to marry you or get close to you in any way shape or form. You've given me no reason to do so. Unlike Princess Tina Wright the next in line for the throne of the Wright kingdom. Yes-The goddess Tina is a princess, shit is fucked up with her but I wouldn't want her any other way."

Melody teared up as she looked up at Zack. "H...How could you! How could you chose a chestless bitch like her over me! I've known you all of your life! How much of your life does she know?...NOTHING! she know's nothing!"

"Not true, you assume a lot child." Tina said with a sigh before she shut her eyes

Melody stiffened as she heard the princess speak. "N...No way...Prove it!"

"Zack Foster, birth date is July 24th, he is 20 years old. He's about 6'1 in height. His family was an aristocrat family on the east part of the kingdom before they were made lord of the kingdom. His great grand father had went into that tournament that you had mentioned before, he won due to being part of the military and had been the commanding general of the military before stepping down to take his place as lord of the family. Your great grandmother wished to marry him but he refused not wanting the bad omen that was placed upon your family-no doubt it was because of how things had managed to happen for your family. The Foster family became known as the strongest family to rule over the Ascot kingdom and no one dared tried to challenge them." Tina said before she walked up beside Zack as she opened her eyes.

Tina then placed a hand on Zack's arm as she looked at Melody seriously. "Zack here personally wanted to learn how to wield his weapon, so he was given special lessons on how to for years on end until he was eighteen years old when he had used his skills to kill his teacher and those learning with him. He has an insane blood lust for those whom are weaker than him, he will kill anyone who gets in his way of what he wants or threatens those he cares deeply for."

"Well shit, I didn't think you'd be able to say that much about me." Zack said impressed

"I went into your memories a day ago, I saw what you went through. Did you think that I would forget such information?"

"Wait what? I don't remember that."

Tina's eyes widen before she looked away from him for a bit and sighed. "Zack dear, what was the last thing you remember?"

"uh...I was fighting those stupid wraith things in front of the manor Kanato's family lived in."

She groaned out before she looked to the other boys. "Karma he struck again with Zack."

"Seriously? Wow, here I thought the next would have been Rogue. But then again Zack has been protective over you as I have been so that probably shouldn't have been that much of a surprise." Karma said with his arms crossed

She nodded her head. "He is very protective of me." She said before she looked up at Zack. "Zack, you were being possessed by Eric the god of hate. He took the blood lust and rage you already had in you and turned it against you. He used you against me, making you leave me two days ago and almost had you kill me earlier. If you feel a bit of pain in the back of your head it's cause I had to knock your ass out so you wouldn't kill me."

Zack sighed himself. "Yeah I feel that, good to know you stop me from doing something stupid. I don't wanna kill you now or ever."

She smiled at him. "Good to know. I will allow you to do what you wish from here on out cause this is your kingdom to rule over." Tina said before she stepped a few paces away from him.

Zack chuckled. "Good choice Tina, we can talk in just a moment." Zack said before he cut Melody into pieces. He then cleaned his scythe off before he looked to Tina. "Looks like the two of us need to talk."

"Yes, but we're not going anywhere until Rogue and Sasori come back."

"That's fine, we can talk here. No one would dare fuck with us as long as I got my scythe-I have a bit of a rep for killing people who talk out of turn to me or my family."

"Well then...okay. Where did you wish to start?" Tina asked

"How about how the fuck we even got to Ascot and what happened after that battle?" Zack asked curiously

Tina nodded her head before she leaned herself against the brick wall and she explained everything to him as the others went closer to the duo most of them sat near where Tina was as she spoke. Tina made sure to let him know what he had personally done so he would understand how he had gotten there before she had. She also mentioned the battle she had with Eric and why Rogue and Sasori weren't there with them. Once she finished speaking Zack shook his head.

"Okay, first off I'd never go off like that-for that I do apologize. I know you were merely concerned with every right to do so. I won't hold that against you. But the ascot name is now completely dead, melody was the last of their kind."

"That's fine, I don't care about that. I had meant to take the magic from the Ascot's but I never got around to it before my death centuries ago." Tina said before she went up to Zack placing a hand softly on his face. "But you deserve it, you've been such a big help and I haven't properly thanked you Zack."

"Even though when I first met you I scared the shit out of ya?"

"I knew you were merely pissy at what my sister did. I couldn't blame you for going forth and doing what your heart wished." Tina said shaking her head

He rose an eyebrow at her. "You're a fucked up princess."

"Yeah well you're no where near perfect yourself there Zack, I know that things will be iffy for you at first but I'm willing to train you in what you'll be gifted with if you are willing to accept it."

Zack wrapped his arm around her as he pressed his forehead against hers. "I'll accept it not a problem, the more time with you the better for me." He said with a grin

"Glad to hear it Zack dear."
