Usui: He Shirgure wait a minute before you go. I should give you a pill that Aoi gave me.

Shirgure: Pill?

Usui: I had Aoi work on this. It something that will help you not get drugged if someone puts something in your drink. I don't want something to happen like it did with Kageyama.

Wow for once Mutsu is being a good guy.  Then he puts the pill in his mouth and kisses her, and use his tongue to put it down her throat. I TAKE IT BACK FUCK YOU MUTSU! Shirgure face is flushed red. I think when he kisses her he was looking at me. FUCK HIM!

Shirgure: WHY DID YOU DO THAT YOU COULD OF JUST GAVE IT TO ME!

Usui: I could not control myself I needed something to hold me over or i would of ripped your clothes off right now and take your first night.  I don't want it to happen that way. I want you to come to me when you are ready.

Shirgure:......IDIOT!

She runs out the door quickly. Danm she did not even hit him. I never seen that face toward me before. It ok I am not giving up.

Usui: I could tease her for a life time.

Marcus: You did that on purpose didn't you Mutsu

Usui: I just gave her natural bug spray and annoying fly kept buzzing around her.

Marcus: ARE YOU CALLING ME A FLY!

Usui: I never said a thing. You called yourself a fly, but I will agree with you.

Marcus: MUTSU!

Akasha: Are they always like this?

Beatrice and Hongo: Pretty much

Usui: Ok I have had enough fun let's move out.

We all scatter Akasha and I head to the casino where we can find Jon. We got information that Jon has now took over the Casino from the original owner. He cheats people out of their money. He loves seeing people fall when they are at their highest losing everything. While we are going to the gambling hall Akasha starts talking to me

Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

Akasha: I think you should give up on that girl.

Marcus: Not you too

Akasha: Oh, you have been told this before. Your so stubborn just like you were back when we were kids. That girl is already in love she just doesn't know it yet.

Marcus: I don't want to hear love advice from someone who is 21. You have two younger sisters that are already married. one of them has a baby.

Akasha; I don't ask for much. I just want someone a little older than me. he is mature. A good leader that knows how to take command, but also knows how to let people do their own thing and be able compromise. Also, he has to be stronger than me.

I don't know why, but the person that she is describing sound kind of like Saito. Maybe I am just imagining things.

Akasha: Oh by the way I am coming to the meeting that you father is hosting. Do you know what It is about? he said it was a urgent matter.

Marcus: I do

Akasha: What is it about

Marcus: A new power

Akasha: New power?

Marcus: You already met them. The Shinobi of the Village Hidden in the Forest. Let just that it is no ordinary Village They are strong very strong.  Their leader is coming to or kingdom next month.

Akasha:  Leader I see.

After that we decide to get some disguises. I don't want rumors to spread that a prince and princess are going to and a illegal casino. We get some chips and start playing. The best way to get someone like Jon out here is to make him angry. How do you make him angry, by taking his money? Akasha has another nick name beside the Scarlet Princess. Her other nick name is the Queen of Gambling. I am good at gambling but only two People where ever to beat me in a humiliating defeat one is Akasha the other is Saito. That guy is as skilled as Akasha when it comes to gambling. except their poker faces are different. Akasha is confident and has extreme pressure. Saito look like a idiot that i easy prey. but he is pretending to be a pig so he can eat a tiger. I head to the poker table and Akasha heads to roulette.

Marcus: Alright boys deal me in.

We begin to play and I win several times than I start losing. Then I lose badly. I think they are cheating. Hell, I know they are cheating I just don’t know how they are doing it. Akasha comes over with bad full of chips.

Akasha: Get up this embarrassing.

Marcus: I don’t even think you can handle this one.

Dealer:  Players can’t switch out

Akasha: Will this change your mind.

She puts on the table bag full of chips. She has a lot more than she came with. The floor manager nods his head and Akasha takes my place. She starts winning like I did. Then she starts to lose the exact same way. Then she starts to win again how is she doing that. She manages to clean out the dealer. The dealer goes pale. He has no idea what happen.

Akasha: Thank you have good night

Then she takes her chips grabs me and we leave.

Marcus: Why are we leaving

Akasha: Because a cheat like Jon won’t tolerate cheating and running away with his money. Let him come to us.

Marcus: Wait you were cheating. What about all the games we played over the years. Were you cheating than as well.

Akasha: Relax I only cheat for good you just suck.

Marcus:…..

 Akasha calls it several people begin to follow us as soon as we get several blocks away from the casino. We start to run and we end up in and alley.

Thug: We don’t like Cheater in our Casino. Hand over all your money and we might let you go with just a few broken bones.

Akasha: Do you want to handle this or should I.

Marcus: I got it I want to try some stuff that I lean. NINJA ART EARTH STYLE PIT FALL JUTSU!

Thugs: AHHHHHHH!

Akasha: Was that magic. I thought you said you could not use magic like your brothers and sister. No, you did not cast a spell what exactly did you do?

Marcus: Ninjutsu

????: So, you are like them.

We turn around and see a man he has pale white skin and green eyes. He is bald and kind of Bulky. This man is Jon one of Henry thugs

Jon: Yu dare still from my Casino

Marcus: It was the only way to get you out of there. Well making some extra cash is side bonus.

Akasha: What are you talking about this is my money

Marcus: You not going to share.

Akasha: I will play you for it.

She is not sharing. We take off our disguises

Jon: Well if isn’t the Second Princess of Vestia and the Fourth Prince of Esreld. What a surprise. The boss told me that the princess would be snooping around, but   Prince Marcus this is a surprise.

Akasha: Jonathan Baptiste as member of the royal family. I am placing you in confinement for threat of treason.

Jon: You can’t stop us NO ONE CAN!

A mark on his neck begins to glow orange it covers his face than his entire body. His skin turns purple and he has a huge horn poking out of his forehead.

Akasha: Is he a demon?

Jon: This is the power with this power no one can stop us hahahahahahhahah

Marcus:  So this is a curse mark

I can feel the pressure coming from him. It feels like I am battling a demon. It looks like this might be harder than we thought
