It Lies in the Heart.

Natsuki narrowed her eyes, what is lanern doing? she thought and watched them,

Tadami asked a few people and when they said no he walked up to three people, "excuse me, have you seen-" he said and then froze when he recognized two of them as royalty of the oblivion kingdom, "exactly what are you doing here."

 

June heard a commotion outside the gate of the castle. What's that...? She wondered and headed towards the front of the castle. She looked out of the window to see the soilders from Destiny Kingdom and Kelveras. What's going on? She wondered.

Kimiko was surprised to see Li and Vaj. What in the world are they doing here? She wondered but kept silent.

 

Li smirked and circled them once then stood next to Vaj again, "Well. Well. If it isnt the Prince and Princess of Destiny Kingdom. We simply came here for..Mmmm...So we wouldnt be bored."

Vaj glared at them, she covered the scar on her cheek quickly

 

"So Lanern....what might I call this visit as...." Kelveras said approaching him, "its not often you make trips over here..."

"Shut it Kelveras...I want to know who murdered one of our shop keepers from your side...." Lanern said ready to draw his sword, "since its a sure thing you won't punish them we will...."

 

Natsuki frowned, what are you talking about Lanern? she thought and straightened her mask

Tadami frowned, "well, as much as it PAINS me to say it, i need your help on finding my sister, i beleive you met her on our visit yesterday."

 

Murdered one of their shopkeepers...? And what makes him think it was somebody from our kingdom? She thought, angrily. It could've been somebody from their own kingdom...

Kimiko stayed silent, watching them.

 

"Our side...." Kelveras said somewhat annoyed, "so just because we are enemies....crime only comes from the other side....." he said shaking his head, "well your wrong Lanern....we do have justice....and if we knew who did it we would want it upon them as well...."

Lanern gritted his teeth, "I'm tired of your lies...." he said drawing his sword and swinging at Kelveras, "we know your hatred....your tricks....." he said fighting with Kelveras.

 

Gritting her teeth, June walked outside. "What is going on here?" She asked, glaring at Lanern. She was furious at how they would just assume that because they're enemies, they were responsible for something like this.

 

"Hey i'm back" He told Vaj as he walked up to her and glanced around at the Destiny soldiers warily.
"What's going on....?" He asked vaj curiously as he stood beside her.

 

Lanern was distracted by the voice and without realizing swung his sword around with him as he turned around.

Lanern's sword made contact with Kelveras's side as he got infront of June, "so this is the punishment you want..." he said wincing, "trying to kill my princess....." he said gritting his teeth.

 

June's eyes widened and, before she even knew what was happening, Kelveras had stepped in front of her. "K-Kelveras..."

 

"Get out of our kingdom now....before I give my guards the order to attack....." Kelveras said trying to stand up, "or your punishment will be next...."

Lanern closed his eyes and sheathed his sword, "forgive me princess....that attack was not meant for you..." he said to June before turning back to his men, "we are heading back to Destiny...lets go...." he said as they all left.

 

June watched as they turned around and left, before walking over to Kelveras. She kneeled down beside him. "Kelveras... You're hurt..." She said, worriedly.

 

"Its ok June...." Kelveras said slowly getting up and holding his side, "I'd do it a million times to save my princess...." he said reaching up and touching her cheek, "I should probably have the doctors take care of this....so long as they have one free that isn't on the plague...."

 

"Still... It was a foolish thing to do..." She said and then looked up at him. "But I'm glad you did..." She gave a small smile and gently kissed him on the cheek. "I can help you find a doctor, if you want..." She said.

 

"I can't think of better company than my princess...." Kelveras said with a small smile, he walked with June inside the castle, he stopped a servant, "see if you can get a doctor down here..." he said wrapping his cloak around his wound and lying down on a bench.

 

June helped Kelveras inside the castle. As he laid down on a bench, she kneeled down beside him. She started to worry. He's hurt because of me... I shouldn't have been so careless... Walking out there while they were fighting... I really hope the wound isn't too bad... "Kelveras..." She started to say but then stopped.

 

she hurried her father to the destiny hospital ,the medics toke him ,len walked through to the empty waiting room "uhh i should be more careful next"she said to herself.

 

And I'll be needing a recap.

 

Natsuki jumped in front of Lanern, "i want to know the truth!" she said, straightening her mask, "was a Destiny murdered, and if so, do you KNOW who has comitted the crime," she asked, keeping the mask and cloak on to keep her identity,
