The Princess And The Lord

__Cestine Palace__

Behind the closed door someone groaned in pain, it seems whoever that person is, he tries to repress his voice nevertheless his voice pierced through the door, the girl behind the door frowning for a second then she abruptly opens the door without knocking, the boy startled when someone invades his room without notice.

The boy's face and body were covers with bruises, and small cuts on his arms. The gauze falls from his hand and rolling to the floor, rather than pity the boy's situation the girl grinned from ear to ear "Seem like Fargo beaten you for good" she mocked.

Lucas lifted her head abruptly and scoffed "Shut up"

Lory flopped on the bed and frown while leaning toward Lucas "I believe we have better healing potion that works better than this….Anuso ointment cream?" his eyebrows knitted closely, she throws the tube cream on the bed.

"Beats me, Fargo said this is what common people used, turn out the high potion is only used by military and hunters so our genius mentor has a bright idea to make me learned to used common drugs just in case I can't acquire any potion in the future…" Lucas then rubbed her cheek following the instruction on the box, he gently massaged his cheek with the ointment.

The cream is not so bad, after he applies the cream he could feel the cooling sensation and the pain in her cheek reduce slightly, the unexpected result pleased him, if only he knows how shiny his cheek right now, Lucas turned his head to the side then he shows his cheek to Lory "How is it look?" 

"Shiny…" she replies briefly.

Lucas snort in disdained then he jumps from the bed and strides to the full sizes mirror on the corner, he examined his own reflection, after close examination, he must admit that Lory was right. Lory feel bad for him, no matter what he is a prince and he has an image to uphold, it would be terrible if he wandered around with a shiny cheek not to mention the light in Cestine palace is excessively bright.

"Come here, let me heal you!" Lory takes off her gift controller bracelet.

"What are you doing, Lory put on your bracelet!" Lucas look horrified he promptly help Lory to wear her bracelet "Are forgot what father and the others said" this is the rare moment when Lucas scowled her since it used to be the other way.

"Why are you so afraid, after all, we are in Cestine Palace, nothing would happen" she roll her eyes tiredly, she doesn't understand why everyone is so worried.

"You cannot lose your guard down Lory" he nagged her further.

There was a time when Lory healing gift was kept hidden from the public, only the Royal family and top echelon know about Lory ability, for public knowledge they only knew Lory have wind and water gift, the water gift she inherited from Queen Lorenna only a few people know that Princess Lorient has a second gift.

"Did you forgot what happens when people knew about your healing gift?" Lucas reprimands his twin sister sternly, however, he has a solid reason for that. 

When some notorious group of terrorist knew about Lory ability they make a long elaborated plan to kidnapped her, even though it sounds ridiculous to kidnapped the heir of Lucient but the reward was worth the risk, imagined a power that could heal anyone with a simple touch, a power that can bring people from the brink of the death, it could be said anyone who has this power has no fear for death anymore so the terrorist risk everything to get their hand on Lory.

The ambitious plan was prepared for years until finally, they find the right moment, it was a small window where Princess Lorient left her penetrable forest to join school trip for the first time, against all odds they managed to kidnap her and smuggle her out of the Herriond, they almost success but Lory got away and fortunately, she met Girsha on the way.

Lory then blessed by the Wind gift and Girsha becomes her guardian, the poor terrorist not only to face the wrath of King Marcus they also have to face the 'The Lord of The Sky' fury. The King make a decision he never made before, the order was to kill all of the terrorists and everyone who knows about Lory's healing gift without being tried first. 

It was the first time Harland conduct a man hunted all over the world, they investigated whoever involved with Lory's kidnapping and have knowledge about her power should die and in less than two weeks the notorious organization and everyone involved with them disappeared in a face of verrion.

"I know – I know" she puffed her cheeks although she feel upset, she knows Lucas is right, she drops her head on the pillow and let out a long exhale "What the used having healing gift if I can't heal anyone" she muttered.

Lucas plopped down on the couch "Is not like you will hide your power all your life, they just hope you wait until you strong enough, besides with your frail body you always unconscious after you healed someone, remember when you healed Jay?" Lucas raised his brows.

Lory throws the pillow on Lucas and shouted "I'm not frail, you know how many beasts that I killed?!"

Lucas catches the pillow swiftly then casually puts the pillow behind his back and then he raised his feet and lay down comfortably "It didn't change the fact, that you end up unconscious after you save Jay. Seriously I think Jay was more scared when you unconscious than when he got hurt….he never admitted it, but I believe he cried" 

Lory's lips curl downward, she does still weak and the healing gift drained her mana more than other gifts "Hey, do you ever wonder why I have this gift?"

"Healing Gift?" asked Lucas.

"Yeah…I mean is a passive power, and consumed my mana too much although I can heal people is not like I can bring people from death, I think the terrorist who tried to kidnapped me overestimated my power….and from where I got this gift anyway?" Lory grumbles to herself.

"What do you mean?" 

Lory rolls to the side then prop her head with her arms "I mean, it called a gift for a reason right….it was given or inherited by someone, the water Gift came from Mother, the Wind Gift I got from Girsha, and your time-controlling gift was inherited from Father so where this healing gift came from?" The twins look at each other their similar face mimick the same clueless expression, they do not know actually no one knows where or how Lory got this healing gift but one thing is certain, for as long as they know there's no record in verrion about someone who blessed with healing Gift…for all they know, it's only her.

Suddenly Jay came to the room he flung the door open, he stared at Lucas's shiny cheek with a deep frown then he raised his thumbs "New look? I like iiiitt~" he grinned widely.

A moment later cliff came to the room too, he carries a few books that Lory guessed is Lucas forgotten homework. Cliff gently closes the door, he walks across the room then he put a pile of books on the table, he turns around and notices Lucas's shiny cheek, he make the same expression as Jay but courteously pretends he didn't see anything.

"You forgot your homework, your highness" he politely said.

"Is that all my homework?" Lucas didn't know he had so much homework.

"No your highness, that is your textbook, reference book for your homework, and encyclopedia" he explains with a serious face.

Lucas face redden, he laughs awkwardly and says "Uhm..thanks" 

"Dude, where are you schoolbag?" Jay perplexed.

"Missing again?" Lory already could guess what happened, because this is not the first time!

"Hey, is not missing….it's only misplaced" he stubbornly clarify himself.

"Riigghhtt…." Jay nodding his head "Whatever floats your boat, your highness" he bowed his head in jest.

Lucas throws a pillow from the couch "Ah, shut up! Why are you here anyway" 

Jay swiftly dodged the pillow "Oh yeah, listen, there will be a concert in the town square so why don't we check it out?" he wiggles his eyebrows.

Lucas likes watching a band in his spare time, if not because of his position he would already establish a band by now too bad with his sensitive background he couldn't appear just like that in front of the public, it was unfortunate because Lucas is a very talented musician.

"Oh yeah, where?" Lucas's eyes lit up, watching music band is the only thing that make him willingly cut her sleeping time.

"Hey, we should not….."Lory cuts in.

"There's also a food festival" Jay added.

"I'm in!" Lory nods firmly.

Cliff pinch his temple 'Not again' he sighs inwardly "I hate to break your enthusiast but I don't think, the King will allow us to go"

"That's why we sneak around…" Jay winks then he presses his finger on his lips.

"Duh…" Lucas gives half-shrug.

"Obviously…" Lory chime as well.

"…." Clift was left speechless, is not like he didn't want them to have fun but it's risky to leave cestine Palace without proper preparation, most people in Harland are good people but there always one bad apple among the citizen.

"Well, is up to you, you know we will going whether you coming or not" Jay opens his arms, he deliberately provokes Cliff.

Cliff consecutively stares at the three trouble maker, then he laments to himself 'Leave them alone?'

He looks at the glutton princess.

Then he looks at the clumsy prince who lost his schoolbag.

Lastly, he looks at the reckless boy Jay.

Cliff scrunched up his face 'Should he be worried? ABSOLUTELY!'

"I'm In…" cliff let out deflated sighs.

"Yeayyy!" the thee roble makers scream in unison.

Is not over they cheer someone suddenly clicking his tongue "Well – well – well, looks like our Prince and princess making a plan without their favorite subordinated" Fred came out of nowhere, the handsome preppy young man sitting in the chair with cross legs, his steeple hands rest on his knee while he staring at them with eerie smiles.

"F – F – Fred!" they jump in fright.

"Where do you came from?" Jay stupefied.

"Since when you were here?" Lucas was also stunned.

The handsome young man smile cunningly "What are you talking about. I always here…"

"…."

"That's disturbing, knock it off!" Lory feel her body cover with goosebumps.

Fred waved his hand aimlessly, then he raised from the chair, he shoved his left hand on his pocket and walk elegantly towards them "So, where do we go?" he shameless;y insert himself to the group despite being five years older.

"You are coming?" Lucas finds it odd since Fred used to be the one who punishes them when they sneaking out.

"Why not, I can be fun too" he feel offended by Lucas toned.

"You can't?" Jay blurted out his thought.

The elegant handsome young man gives Jay side-eye. Immediately Jay shut his mouth. Fredhard rubbed his hands together and say: "Well, after all, if all of us got out together the king will be at eased"

"All of us?" Lory tilts his head.

The door suddenly flung open again "Are we ready yet!" Fargo's boisterous voice surprised everyone but Fred.

'I need to lock my door from now on' Lucas reminds himself.

The four of them look at each other confusedly, but then they decide is not a problem to bring these two old men, well, they not old per se but compare to their age, they a lot older than them.

Lucas scratches her head and says: "We need a bigger car!"

"Right away!" cliff give an affirmative answer before he left.

Lucas grabs his jacket from the closet, then all of the sudden Fargo throw something toward him, Lucas catches it in reflex, he opens his palm and confused why Fargo gives him another cream.

"Sorry dude, I give you the wrong cream" he smiles awkwardly "The previous cream is for hemorrhoid"

"WHAT THE FU*K!" Lucas scream.

"Yeah, sorry….you better wash your face first" Fargo point at Lucas shiny cheek.

Lucas storms to the bathroom while screaming "You assho*e. I will get you for this!"

"Language!" Fred didn't forget to reprimand.

"Ahh…that's why the cream name is 'Anuso' make sense…" Lory muttered.

While jay laughing at his best friend missfortune, Fred stares at Fargo dubiously "Why you have hemorrhoid cream…"

Fargo's expression becomes stiff, he nervously averts his gaze from Fred "It's a….it's not for me though…."

Fred didn't believe him then he squints his eyes "I told you to eat more vegetable"

"Hey, my family is a proud descendant of Lycan we don't eat vegetables, can you see how strong we are? It's because we eat a lot of meat, MEAT IS ALL WE NEED!" Fargo hit his chest arrogantly.

"Don't forget hemorrhoid cream too…" Fred sarcastically said.
