The Peaceful Prince

The Little Kirishima

Eijiro Kirishima

Eijiro put his ear to the dining room door listening for his parent's voices. When he heard slight giggling however a small smile crawled onto his face. He slowly inched the door open peeking inside the dining hall. As soon as the door was open however Lil' Dude fluttered towards a flower vase that decorated the side wall.

The dining room itself was a large rectangular room with large, curtain-covered windows opposite the door. In the semi-center of the room was a long dining table decorated with a red table cloth that matched the curtains. At the far end of the rectangular room was a large, stone fireplace. Surrounding the fireplace was an assortment of different blankets and quilts, all randomly spread out across the stone floors, toys messily strewn across the blankets' frame.

Sat atop one of these quilts, a story book laying in her lap, was Momo Yaoyorozu one of the castle's many maids. Curled up beside her was Tazi Kirishima, she held a small wooden sword tightly within her grasp.

"So the brave knight stood before the mighty dragons lair," said Momo, reading from the book in front of her. Tazi looked at the book excitedly, seemingly waiting for her favorite part, not noticing her older brother sneaking silently across the stone floors.

"The knight pulled out his sword and pointed it towards the dragon," As Momo said this the small princess mimicked unsheathing her wooden sword and aiming it one of her stuffed animals.

At this point Eijiro was a mere few inches from his younger sister, still unnoticed by either of the black haired girls.

"And then..." Momo started but was soon cut off by a certain redheaded prince.

"And then the mighty dragon picked up the knight in his claws and flew her through the air," Eijiro stated picking up his surprised little sister and spinning her around in his arms. The small Kirishima started giggling through her pointed teeth before she realized what was happening. However once she realized her situation she soon began trying to swing her sword at her older brother narrowly missing many times.

"The knight tried and failed to defeat the dragon while airborne. And she soon realized the dragon was taking her toward a bubbling pit of lava," Eijiro said holding his sister over one of the orange blankets.

"Bubble, bubble," said Momo.

"Nice touch," thought Eijiro slightly distracted by Momo's beautiful sound effects. Tazi noticed this distraction an used it as an opportunity to escape her brother's firm grasp. Wiggling out of Eijiro's hands she jumped to the floor, and pointed her sword at her older brother.

"Hah dragon you really thought that would work!? You fool!" She said flipping her imaginary hair to the side.

"That sassy little bitch," Eijiro thought looking at the now freed princess. Eijiro changed his direction and turned to his sister who was now standing on one of the dining room chairs.

The small child jumped off the chair and lunged at her brother. She then put the sword between his arm and his torso, mimicking that of stabbing. At this Eijiro dramatically pretended to fall to the ground dead, sticking his tongue out of the side of his mouth.

"And then the knight won living happily ever after with all the cookies, and ice cream, and cake she could ever want. The End," Tazi said giving a bow.
