When I Met You ( Laceless x Prince )

Ready? Aim Fire

Bright and early in the morning we find the new King of the monarchs awake preparing himself for yet another day as the leader, that his older brother oh so highly ruled before. He stands placing his coat over his body as he gaze into his mirror day dreaming.

Prince POV:

I honestly should be heading out soon, If my older brother still lead the team he would be furious with my tardiness. But now I'm taking over and with no such warning, he just left me in charge that day...

I'm terrified of doing this, but hopefully this could be a good change...

This morning I'm lagging behind...well I've actually been late these past few days I've been the leader. I know it isn't responsible but if I'm telling myself the truth, I'm still trying to become something more or equal to what my brother was...the great King.

You see myself trying for a while to collect my thoughts as I stand in place taking in calming breaths of air. I basically do this every sun rise, it's only to help me relax more so I'm not constantly worried...even did it when brother was leader.

Okay, it's time to leave now and join up with the rest. I look at myself in the mirror and see no one really important...Emperor was always better then me. So what makes me think I can surpass him or take over his position? The Kings title places a heavy weight upon me ever since.

"You got this. You have a team to support your choices and your leadership. I got this." I convince myself and nod walking out of my room before I fall into a deep gaze once again. I tend to over think a lot when my brother was leader, but that's only because he normally took the spot light.

Taking the first morning step outside has always been special for me and I don't understand why? But these few days have been different lately only because I'm heading to make a team better and more communicating toward each other.

I walk around the mansion taking in the sight of the sun and feeling the breeze. N-pacer and Eging are already at the stage in the further back of our yard.
They've been working incredible tough lately which means I have to keep up and work just as much, which I'm honestly okay with.

Once arrived I look down to see my two teammates battling it out between each other as N-pacer try's to take aim upon Eging while he practices dodging her shots which are impeccable.

Truly incredible teammates.

I grow a smile across my face as I now carefully climb down the ladder that leads in. N-pacer was the first one to spot me which makes her hold fire and walk over toward me for a greeting.

"Good morning Prince." Her greetings always made me smile with how kind her words were. Eging then approaches and does his regular greeting for him.
"Morning! Shall we start?" Good mood as ever I see. he's been a morning person ever since he's met my brother.

"Morning to the both of you, sorry for my tardiness. And yes we'll start but not this our normal routine."
They both hold confused expressions as they stare at me. I smile and walk off to reset the stage as they follow behind.

"Then what?" Eging asked as he walks beside me with his hands resting behind his head.
"We're doing a turf war so we can watch over our movements and spot what we need to work on." I state and reset everything.

When I say watch over it means that the cameras will pick up our video and we can just play back to see what we need improvement in, that's how we always become better and stronger.

"Alright." They both are on board and now that they are we can get started with this turf war.

We draw our sticks to see who got the shorter end and to his luck it was Eging. He's always talked about taking the challenge. So here's his chance.

We locate at our spawns and then begin.

I flank forward inking up as much as I can while N-pacer protects my back and makes her shots in the mean time. I spot Eging zooming through his area at incredible speeds making it difficult to get an eye on him.

Once done with my area I run forward and start inking over Eging color while he's distracted, but he wasn't for long. He starts taking aim toward me as he zips around, but I've known him long enough to know where he may go.

And just as I thought he dodges behind me for a back attack but beat him to it and flip the tables my striking him down with lower. "Dang it Prince!" He shouts to me as he flys away.

"Let's go N-pacer!" I wave to her with a smile telling her it's clear. We do our jobs while Egings down but he's making his way to us at top speed. Once again he try's to take me down first but I move carefully away making him miss his blast.

I turn and strike him once more.

He groans as he rises up in the air. Only a minute now but he can still turn it around if he wants to,
"N-pacer lets keep this up!" She smiles and runs forward, inking.

I reach past the center and ink around not paying much attention to my surroundings since Eging managed to sneak up behind me starting to blast.
"Got you!" He shouts as I dodge and was about to make a move but N-pacer took him down with her amazing shot.

"Booyeah!!" I shout and now the timer is down as a alarm goes out through the stage. And just as N-pacer and I thought we won by a good amount.
"Nice game Pacer!" I give her a high five. She returns it kindly, then she notices Eging approaching.

He walks to us breathing in deep breaths as his head hangs low. Once he stands I front of us he collapses onto the ground. "Eging!?" He raises his hand up.
"Fine...I'm fine. That was a good game..."

I could see he has something more to say so I waited for him to tell.

"...Prince I believe it's time." He tiredly said as he takes a stand now looking into my eyes.
"Time? For what?" I say confused since I am.

He groans and huffs exhausted like.
"It's time to find another member for the team..."
