Bounty Hunter Bash The Two Out Of Wedlock Arc
Part Two
Princess
Druw
Twenty years passed and a young princess the age of thirteen was
looking at her bow made of scarlet dragon scales, with string made
from the coal coloured hair of a siren. She looked at her quiver made
of the interwoven tail and mane of a silver unicorn, with arrows made
of oak. She took it up and tucked her long black locks behind her
pail ear as she slung it on.
She
skipped down the hallway whistling her favourite tune as her long
green dress hitting the top of her feet.
“Princess Druw! (Prononced dr oo v) Careful!” exclaimed Kenra,
her nanny. Princess Druw just shrugged passively as she skipped by
her. She then flew onto the bannister and slid down it laughing all
the way down it.
Then when she was at the archery field she took out her arrows and
fired them repeatedly one after the other and she was laughing all
the way through the whole thing. She even hit the moving ones and the
ones that were too far away that even the knights could not hit! This
was why she had always had to practice alone, for if she was there
she would have shown up the whole of the King's army!
When
she emptied the quiver she then sprinted along to collect them and
even ruined her dress climbing up the trees. So when she finished
that she repeated this again and again until she could not physically
continue so she ended up collecting them and fell asleep on another
field as the sun warmed her red eyes.
She
had a bizarre dream about a skinny bald man in the shadow with golden
glowing eyes and lips so pail that they were blue. Then behind him
was a beautiful flash of lightning and in his hand was a black staff
and a blue crystal at the tip.
“If
you wish to free us, then you must destroy that staff!”
she heard a high-pitched voice shouted but she could not quite tell
if the voice was that of a woman or a man. She held her bow but when
she armed it she spotted silver arrows and she was about to fire, but
to her disappointment she woke up before the dream could tell her the
outcome.
“Ohh...” she moaned as she could see that it was late and
decided to go in. She silently walked passed the main hall where she
could hear her parents talking.
“But we must tell her!”
Tell
'her' what? She said already
knowing that it was her that they were speaking about.
“No, we do not, listen, I have an idea. Why do we not move her
to another kingdom for her to live until she is at the age of
marriage? There that should solve our problem, especially if it is to
a powerful prince. That way we can protect her from him and we would
secure her future at the same time!” she heard her mother say.
“Except, she would not stand for
this! You know she can be like me sometimes in that regard! Then
again, she is in some
ways like her uncle. So I should not worry about that.” the King
replied.
So
right! I wouldn't! Who is this person that they keep talking about
anyway? I want to face him so that I can stop whatever horrific thing
he is doing. For if mother is afraid...
“The do not give her the choice! She must not face him nor go
anywhere near him! I forbid it and if she tries then do whatever you
have to to keep her from him, break her bow and arrows if you have
to!” she shouted. As she looked down at her bow she suddenly drew
it close to her, hugging it closely.
“Fine, I will break her bow tonight, and by tomorrow she will
go to the Sky Kingdoms. There is no safer place there, let us just
hope that she falls for the Emperor's oldest Prince Scyroghphone.
Just do not hold your- Druw...How, what are you doing here?” the
king asked looking down at her. She glared at him.
“Break this!” she shouted as she hit her father so hard
that she accidentally broke her father's leg and just glared at her
mother.
“And for you, I am not something to throw away and I will go
far away where you will never see me ever again. You won't even know
where I am!” she shouted as she raced to her horse, Snow and then
without anything but her bow she rode him and herself out of the
kingdom. Where she almost seemed to disappear. None of the kings
knights could find her and not even the bounty hunters that soon
followed.
