The knight in shining armor rescues the beautiful princess by slaying the dragon, that is how fairy tales make us believe in love at first sight. Allan had never believed in fairy tales, back home, he had always been making fun of fairy tales like those since he was a child, but this world was not his world, and this land full of monsters and magic was nothing if not a fairy tale world, minus all the gruesome killing and deaths. And this was Allan's very own fairy tale story, would he have to save the girl by defeating a monster on his own as well?
The damsel in distress, hiding helplessly under a fallen tree, was crying her eyes out as the sound of fighting echoed to her ears from a distance. She had seen it all, all of her friends and companions were killed and eaten alive by the goblins and the mysterious man with black hair who she thought just saved her life took her hostage and then stayed behind and fought the monsters so she could run away. “What the hell was that all about?” She was so confused about the situation she was in. And then the forest was clear of noise, “did he win or did the monsters get him too ?” the girl asked herself, then she heard footsteps, her heart was beating rapidly, she desperately tried to stop breathing so heavily and loudly, trying her best not to be found by anyone.
“Hey it’s ok now, we are here to save you, you can trust me.” A warm and carrying voice reached her ears, when she looked up, there were no goblins or the black haired man from before, but a handsome blue-eyed, blonde-haired man standing in front of her, giving out his hand to help her up.
Allan's heart almost skipped a beat when he first saw her face. With teary eyes she reached out to his hand “ What is your name?” Allan asked, “ Rose, my name is Rose” The girl answered. Allan then escorted Rose back to the rest of the group and introduced her to everyone, Maria, Luna, Liam.
“And of course the guy who rescued you from earlier Kyle” Allan said, Rose instinctively froze when she looked at Kyle. Blood was all over his body and his eyes still carry this look of death, not to mention the bone chilling bloodthirst aura coming from Kyle. She did not manage to look him straight in his eyes but unlike the others in Débutant town, she still managed to say “Thank you for what you did earlier”.
“ It was nothing” Kyle said “ And sorry about my action from earlier, it was the only way I could think of to get us out of there”
“ I see,” Rose replied. Kyle then asked Rose multiple questions, who she was, where was she heading and about the people that died in the hand of the goblins.
“ My name is Rose , a daughter of a rich merchant family, I am heading back to my home in Casablanca city, and the people who died today was …” Rose bursted into tears again.
“ It’s ok, you don’t have to tell us if you don’t want to,” Allan said. “ No it’s ok” Rose replied, “They are,... were my friends and our family merchant guards escorting us back to Casablanca city”.
Gathered all the information he needed, Kyle stopped asking her questions, Rosed stilled visibly shaking from fears and traumatize, Luna picked it up very quickly and said, “Well now Rose, a pretty girl like yourself could not have dirt on your face and dress like that, come here, let me and Maria help you out then we and these gentlemen over there will escort you to Casablanca yourself, ok?” Luna reached out to Rose with a smile, Rose nodded her head.
“Oh and Kyle, before we come back please clean yourself up as well. I think you're scaring her with all that blood” Luna whispered to Kyle when Maria was holding Rose's hand and leading her away from the guys.
“ Hey, why only me, Liam got blood on him too but no one seemed to mind him one bit” Kyle spoke back.
This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.
“ Come on now, Liam only has some blood on his shield and weapon, you on the other hand have it all over your clothes and face, how could someone not be afraid of you” Luna replied.
Kyle then looked at his reflection from the sword, then he quietly stepped away and said “This is a waste of fresh water” he said, “Oh please, you are in front of a lady now, try and look less decent” Luna said.
“You’re a girl too but you don’t seem to mind” Kyle said, “I am different, I am just used to this by now” Luna replied. After that, they went their separate ways.
After fixing Rose up, all three of them headed back to the group and their reaction was priceless, in front of the guys, there were three gorgeous women.
“Wow” Allan and Liam spoke out, Rose really was a true beauty behind all of that tear and dirt on her face. Her long curling red hair and sparkling red eyes really suit her beautiful, kind and gentle face. Allan and Liam could be seen physically bewitched by Rose's beauty and aura. “Now can we go ?” Kyle said, it looked as if he did not even notice the three of them at all, any other man would kill to be in Kyle's shoes right now, getting a chance to see three beautiful goddesses in the flesh, but Kyle's eyes did not even waver at the sight.
The party then continued to follow the main road and escort Rose to the city of Casablanca. On their way, Allan and Rose were always next to each other, Allan asked her many questions about Rose and vice versa, she also asked him many questions about him and his group. They continued on until they reached Casablanca city. Unlike the town from earlier, the city entrance was heavily guarded with soldiers carrying weapons with them checking everyone who entered the city.
“How are we gonna get in ?It looks like we need some kind of paper or ID to get inside” Liam asked. Kyle stayed silent and thought deeply to find a way to sneak in without making a huge mess, he knew very well how the people in this world would react and treated him and with him not having any ID or paper and the smell of blood on his body would definitely have made his situation worse.
“Don’t worry, just go with me, I will get you in” Rose told the gang. And with that, they followed her to the city and entrance, when the guard stopped them and asked for their identification, Rose gave them a paper
“ Oh Lady Rose, I am sorry I did not notice it was you, please come in” the guard replied as he signaled the other to let the group through.
“You are quite famous in this city,” Allan said. “ No, actually it is my family that are famous here, Blackburn merchant guide is a well respected merchant guide in this city”.
“Really now” Kyle said with a smile on his face, it was not your normal cheerful happy smile though, more like a sneaky ‘I got you’ kind of smile, that really did make Luna and Liam uncomfortable as they were the only one who heard him and saw that smile on his face.
It was almost night time and the sun was setting, Rose led the group to her house, well more like a small palace, “Holly shit” that was what the group thought in their head. Right as a servant saw Rose, he noticed the whole palace, men and women wearing outfits from soldier, maid, butler, to fancy looking clothes walking out of the gate to welcome her. A middle aged man walked to Rose with open arms “ My daughter, why did you arrive so late, where are the others and who are they ?”.
Everyone’s eyes are fixed on Kyle as Rose's father said those words. “Here we go again,” Kyle told the group. Tension quickly escalated as Kyle once again wiped the smile off his face and welcomed back the cold blood look in his eyes as he was surrounded by unknown men carrying weapons and everyone was looking at him with eyes that just screamed “Get him”. However, no damage was done in this case as Rose quickly explained the situation to her Father.
“I am sorry for that shameful action we have just caused you. As the head of the Blackburn merchant guide and as Rose's father, I am forever indebted to you” Rose's father bowed his head down toward them and spoke.
“ Well, you could let us stay here for a couple of days first of all,” Kyle replied.
“Kyle !!!” Liam, Maria, Luna and Allan spoke up.
“ No, it’s ok, this is the least I could do for the heroes that saved my daughter.” and with that all five of them were welcome to the house of Blackburn.
