"Why the fuck should I spare your pathetic ass, ninja?"
FantasyWaterfall
whispers through teeth "Cuz I'm not Ninja"
"Oh, so you think being a ninja gives you the right to kill my father and invade our empire? You're fucking delusional!"
FantasyWaterfall
"No, Yuki! Your Father gave me order..."
"My father would never give such an order! Who are you to lie to me?"
FantasyWaterfall
shows her a sealed scroll from her father
takes the scroll and unrolls it It reads: "If the empire is in danger, take whatever measures necessary to ensure its survival.
FantasyWaterfall
"your Father told me your the empire is corrupt... so i should take over..."
clenches her fists "You...you dare to question my father's judgement? I will not let you betray us like this!" grabs FantasyWaterfall by the collar
FantasyWaterfall
falls down "What are you gonna do? Kill me? That's the same as your father! Leaving no witnesses... I'm here to protect you!"
narrows her eyes "Protect me? From who? Are you saying there's a real threat to our empire? If so, then prove it."
FantasyWaterfall
a shadow emerges from the darkness behind them. she pulls out an arrow and shoots it at yuki. it explodes in the middle of her chest and blows her back into the wall. she falls down and FantasyWaterfall walks over to her. "I'm protecting you because... I'm part of your family."
gasps "Impossible! How can you be part of my family?"
FantasyWaterfall
picks up yuki in his arms "I know this is weird to say... but i know how it feels to lose someone. My entire clan was slaughtered when I was young... I didn't want you to have that pain..."
teary-eyed "If what you say is true... then perhaps there is a way for us to work together. But first, I need to know why you betrayed my father and how I can trust you."
FantasyWaterfall
teleports both of them to another room in the palace. "Because... i never wanted to hurt him. but our empires were arranged to be at war. and he ordered me to kill the people i loved and I couldn't do that."
wipes away her tears and stands tall "If our empires were truly at war, then I understand your dilemma. But we cannot trust anyone blindly.
FantasyWaterfall
pulls out two royal outfits "These are our father's spare outfits. let's switch appearances."
puts on the royal outfit and adjusts her hair "Very well. We will switch appearances and go among the people to gather information.
FantasyWaterfall
puts on the royal outfit that looks almost exactly like hers "lets save our kingdoms."
stands tall and nods "Let us begin our mission. We must unite our kingdoms and bring peace to our lands.
FantasyWaterfall
sees people walking outside the balcony and grabs her hand "hide in my pocket. I'll dress like a guard and talk to them. if anything happens, pull out your katana I made for you."
nods and hides in FantasyWaterfall's pocket, gripping her katana tightly "I trust you. Do what you must."
FantasyWaterfall
he walks out and talks to the guards while walking. he hears them talk about how the princess and the Emperor were practicing romance and how they don't know the Emporer was dead yet. They keep talking about the princess needing to sleep more due to having heavy experiences with the Emporer.
growls softly, her grip tightening on her katana "Those bastard guards... speaking ill of my father and me.
FantasyWaterfall
turns around and walks back to the balcony. holding her tightly in his pocket as he gently opens the sliding doors "it sounds like they still haven't noticed the corpse of the emporer, huh?"
steps out of FantasyWaterfall's pocket and takes a deep breath "No, they haven't noticed. We need to dispose of the body quickly before they find it."
FantasyWaterfall
"I'll do it. I'd rather not lose another loved one..." throws the Emporer's corpse into the waterfall. and he returns and sits beside her. "let's start practicing..~"
blushes and looks away, avoiding eye contact "Um... Yes, we should start practicing. But, um... can we take things slow? I... I need time to process everything."
FantasyWaterfall
"I understand... Let's take it slow..."
takes a deep breath and musters her courage "I appreciate your understanding. It means a lot to me. Thank you, FantasyWaterfall."
FantasyWaterfall
"How should we tell the others? They're probably scared..."
pauses for a moment, thinking "We need to address the matter promptly, but we should choose the right words to avoid causing panic. Let me handle it. I'll speak to the council and reassure them that everything is under control."
FantasyWaterfall
"Alright, go ahead. I'll be here, supporting you."
walks confidently towards the council chamber, holding her head high "Council members, we have faced an unexpected challenge, but rest assured, we have a plan in motion to ensure the continued prosperity and safety of our kingdom. Your trust in me is unwavering, and I assure you that we will overcome this hardship together." council members nod in agreement and show their support
