Hello fellow readers. I have come bearing a story based on the skit I promised in 12 days to hook up. I put up a poll that asked if I should make this a play or a real story. The poll went for story and that's what I'm going to do. I hope you like it.

This is dedicated to all my reviewers from 12 days to hook up.

I love you all for reviewing in the story. You are the reason for this story.


It was the year of 647AD; the year of princess and knights alike. The kingdom of Fiore; home to the Ice prince. He is something I can tell you that. He is a nice person when he wants to be but in a serious situation he can be strict. He's next in line for the throne and soon to be king of Fiore. He soon has to marry the princess of Magnolia kingdom to bear an heir to the throne. However he's never actually met the princess as of yet; but they plan to have a meeting with her soon. She's scheduled to be in Era to meet the royal family in 2 days. Needless to say the prince was not happy to see her. He believed that all women in Fiore only want to meet him or see him to get close enough to me to get what they want. The prince was currently walking down the halls of his castle. He was on his way to see his mother for a training session. His red cape flew back and forth with each step he made making him look more serious. The ice prince doesn't play around when it comes to training. He saw the doors to the training hall up ahead and he sped up. His mother doesn't appreciate when he's late for anything. He opened the double doors and walked inside.

"Gray, I see you're on time." She said.


(Gray's POV)

"Of course Ur. My training is serious business and I need to be on time." I said in a serious tone.

She walked over to me and poked my cheek. "I've told you a hundred times. Call me mom not Ur." She said. I sighed and she stepped back a few feet. "Now, make your weapon and let's dance." I brought out my hand and a sword made of ice appeared in my hand. Yes, the ice prince actually uses ice magic; thus how he got the name. I brought it in front of me and Ur or how she likes it "Mom" brought out her sword of ice as well. My mother has the same magic as me which is why she trains me. I jumped at her and she smirked. She drew the blade in front of her and held me back. "Sloppy." I growled and jumped back. I ran back at her and her sword connected with mine. I pushed down on her and she pushed back. We both fell back onto the floor but I immediately got back up and placed the sword over her neck. "Very good; always take the fall as the advantage. I grabbed her hand and helped her off the ground. "Alright, I think that's enough for one day."

"Do, you know the rest of my schedule?" I asked.

"Yes, you have a meeting with your father concerning the princess and you have to see the tailor at 3:oopm sharp for your new suit." She confirmed.

"Great, more of this princess crap." I complained.

"Gray, you know the princess isn't that bad. She's a real sweet girl. She likes to read and is very shy." She said.

"Great! A bookworm, who I probably can't even talk to. Fantastic!" I said. Ur frowned and led me out of the training room.

"You need to be less judgmental. Just because your first girlfriend didn't work out doesn't mean every girl is bad." She said.

"Mom, she tried to kill me to take the throne." I complained.

"Yes! But you didn't die and that's all that matters." She said. I mentally sighed. No one understands me at all. We were now on our way to the throne room to see my father; king of Era. My father isn't that bad to me but it's still pretty bad. He almost never listens and he ignores me most of the day anyway. This is why I never like coming to these meetings to see him.

"Do I have to see father? He's such a drag." I complained.

"Your father is not a drag. He's only doing what's best for you." She said.

"Best my ass. He only cares about himself so he's trying to control me." I shot back. She just shook her head and we stopped outside the throne room.

"Alright, try to be on your best behavior for your father." She said.

"Best behavior. All I have to is be silent and I'm the best son ever." I said and walked into the throne room. There I saw my father, he was sitting his throne looking very impatient.

"Gray, please come up to the front. You know it's easier to talk to you up here." He said. I mentally curse and begin walking down towards my father. These are the only times he actually cares that I'm down in front. I stood in front of him and he smiled. "Thank you." I rolled my eyes and he sat up. "Now as you know the princess of Magnolia is on her way to Era to meet you. She will be staying for 2 weeks to get to know you. If she finds you suitable to be her husband then you will marry and take the throne."

"Wait, you never told me I would immediately take the throne after marriage. Dad, I'm 16. I'm not capable of taking on that kind of responsibility so quickly." I said.

"You will take the throne after you marry. You have no choice in the matter. The decision is already final." He said.

"That is so unfair. I'm still training to be king. If the kingdom falls to its knees it will be your entire fault." I yelled. I turned around and stormed towards the door. "This conversation is over and I don't want to hear anything about it." I opened the door and slammed it shut as I walked out. "I can't believe him." I muttered.

My feet stomped throughout the halls. The servant's coward in fear as I walked past. They know when I get angry I get violent as well. I just need to go back to my room and relax. Some meditation and a bath should work fine and if worse comes to that then maybe a walk through the kingdom will do. My temper is really low and you should never stress me or anger me. It's a known fact. I stopped outside my bedroom doors, took a deep breath and walked inside.

My room is one of the biggest bedrooms in the whole palace. I don't really need a big room since I'm by myself at the moment but since I may have to marry in a few weeks that's all about to change. I walked over to my bed and crossed my legs together. I decided meditation is the best start. My room is nice and quiet and it will remove all thoughts from my mind. However, a problem this big may be harder to forget than I hope. I closed my eyes, took deep breaths and began to clear my head. I heard a knock coming from my door. I opened one eye, "Come in." The door opened and my mother walked in. She had a very scared and shocked look on his face.

"Gray, I have some bad news you must hear." She said. I blinked and she sat down on the bed in front of me. "Your father got news from one of the knights of Magnolia. He informed us that the princess was captured on her way here." She informed me. My face was emotionless, why do I care she was taken? I never wanted to meet her anyway. "This is serious Gray. If the kingdom back at Magnolia rush to conclusions that we had something to do with they will go as far as war."

"Then what the hell are we supposed to do? We don't have a clue where she could be or who took her. So we don't know any more than they do." I said.

"We offered the king of Magnolia that you and Freed would go to Magnolia and see the king yourselves. You will discuss the plan with his three best knights and you will go off to find the princess." She said.

"Wait! Why the hell do me and Freed have to help them?" I asked.

"Because she is your possible future wife. There could be war if you say no and I said so." She said.

I growled in anger. "I'll do it. But, I'm not doing it for you. I'm doing it for the kingdom of Era. And you know what once I become king I'm kicking you and Father out of this palace. You two have controlled my life for long enough." I said. I stood up from my bed and walked over to door. Ur had a shocked look on her face.

"You can't be serious Gray. We're only doing what's best." She said.

I stopped at the door and looked over at my shoulder.

"That's bullshit." I said.

I opened the door and walked out of the bedroom. My anger has once again been refueled. But, since I already agreed I might as well go and see Freed. He lives on the 5th floor so I only have to go 2 flights up. I walked down the hall to the stair case. The servants were walking past me; they were staying away from me to make sure they don't become target practice. Personally I would never hurt an innocent victim.

I walked into the staircase and headed up. It was one of those spiral stair cases. I can't stand these things because I get dizzy if I go up too many flights. I stopped at the 5th floor and walked out into the hallway. Fried should be in his room right now since he probably hasn't heard about the princess. I stopped in front of his door and knocked on his door. It almost immediately opened and there stood Freed.

"What's up Gray?" He asked.

"We're going to Magnolia." I said straight to the point.

Freed stared at me for a moment and then he shrugged his shoulders, "Alright. You can tell me why on the way. Did you call a carriage?" He asked.

"Not yet. They may have already called one since my mom told me I have to do this." I said.

He sighed and put a hand on your shoulder. "I'm gonna say this once and you will listen." He said. I looked over at him as we walked. "Your parents suck." I chuckled and we walked down the stairs.

"Totally." I said. We walked down the stairs and walked out into the hallway. There were guards also on there way to the entrance of the palace. Of course we have to have guards escort us everywhere; which sucks by the way. We walked outside the gates of the palace and into the carriage.

"Next stop, Magnolia." The driver said.
