"William....We should get going soon. School's about to start." Wearing a rather wealthy cloak and a sword in his scabbard, he stood his ground just beside the prince, informing him about the time.

"Joseph, I know that I have decided to go undercover in the town's public school, but...Just look at that girl...She's beautiful..." The prince locked his eyes onto Emily, still bewitched by the hauntingly strikingly white hair as Emily moved some of her hair behind her ear. "One day, just one day...I will ask her hand in marriage and swear to protect her till death do us part..." With a voice almost like wording out a melody to a song, William spoke with such confidence unimaginable.

"Yes yes...Dream on little boy..Heehaw!" Assistant Joseph laugh it off. Then he peeked his eyes to the left. "Prince, look. There's another girl. She has..." Joseph halted.

"Red Hair.." William turned his focus onto Anna, but this time, It felt more of a hatred emotion towards her. "She's suspicious..." With his eyes lowered down, he filled his gaze with suspicion, placing his hand on the grip of his sword, ready to pull it out from his scabbard.

As Anna approached Emily, he felt his heart beating faster and faster. The prince couldn't see what was happening when Anna was right in front of Emily. His vision was blocked and disturbed by a couple of trees and Anna's back. "Prince..Look! She pushed her!" The assistant warned the prince. He widened his eyes as he saw the kettle fell to the ground, then he saw Emily on the ground. He rushed out from the dirt road side and through the trees without any second thoughts.

Water poured out quickly as Prince William sneakily, but hurriedly ran towards that girl with the white hair that he swore to protect. With the pommel end of this sword, he swung it and gave a enormous and painful blow to Anna's right cheek. Anna fell down the ground fast like paper as her legs gave out. Assistant Joseph informed some solders behind the carriages and they approached what just happened.

"Don't you dare hurt this girl, you scoundrel bitch..." With such hatred in this trembling, terrifying voice, he spoke those words as a warning to Anna. He turned back to Emily and lifted her up carefully. "Are you ok...My lady?" He asked Emily with a soft, yet calm voice.

"Emily...." She finished her short and unexpected sentence.

"What..?" Prince William responded with a curious mind.

"Emily...My name's Emily!" Emily gave a smile to the prince, giving him a hug.

The prince couldn't move as all the nerves in his body has froze. His cheeks turned red, almost like a tomato, while turning his eyes up to the sky. At this point, Emily pretended not to know that he's the prince. The soldiers approached, asking if he's alright. "Give shelter to this girl" The prince commanded them. They saluted and show her the way to the carriage.

"Oh wait. I am going to school now!" She turned her head to William. Surprised, the prince looked at her, feeling happy and relived.

"Me too! Guess we will be seeing each other very often from now on!" Cheerful as it is, the prince felt a flower blooming inside of him. A flower that released all the happy emotions that the prince wanted to have for years. She made him happy again. The prince turned back towards shaken Anna. He held her up by the throat, squeezing it. tightly. All Anna could do it choke hopelessly as she's really weak. By then, her legs weren't touching the ground anymore. She tried to beg for mercy but couldn't get any words out from her tighten throat.

"Plewse..Le-let me go..I-hur~" Anna finally managed to speak, but felt faint afterwards.

"This is your punishment. If you want to harass such a kind girl like that, then you deserve this just as much. Do..you...understand..?" He spoke slowly, still holding Anna up to the sky.

"Ye....." Anna couldn't even finish a word before she was let go from his dangerous grip. Coughing out, while trying to breathe in as much air as she could, she looked at the clock. Oh no...She's going to be late for school.

She hurried back to her house, still coughing so loudly. But she couldn't afford to be late. When she arrived at the entrance to your classroom, she couldn't believe her eyes.

"Hello everyone. My name's William and I am a transfer Student here." Prince William spoke out to the class, secretly undercover as a student there.

Guess Anna will have to suffer even longer from now on...
