Prince vs Assassin

friday, early in the morning..
while we were sleeping..(ryuu and i)

*knock knock knock!

'i wake up every morning feeling like p'diddy...' someone sang outside the door.

'ugh...who's...that my life....?' my life asked as he wrapped his arms around me

'shin...don't mind him, just sleep tight...' i answered him while caressing his face

'hey! you two! wake up! it's time for our daily exercise!!' shin shouted

i saw my life's face wrinkled, irritated by shin's voice.

'don't worry my life...he can't disturb us...we always lock the door, remember?'

i kissed him sweetly as my life simply nodded. suddenly, the door opened. shin ran towards the bed and hopped on us. he hugged us tightly and then shook us.

'cmon, guys! wake up, wake up!' shin grinned.

'stop it, shin!' i shouted, 'would you stop shaking us? and please, don't disturb us, we're still sleeping!'

'uh..uh...ya ain't my little prince!' he patted my head, 'ya are awake now!'

'oh my goodness....' i sighed

'we won't participate in your exercises, in law...so please..please...please...let us sleep some more, ok?' my life requested as he hugged me tightly and kissed my ear.

'wow...you two really are so cute' shin grinned, 'i want some more, i want some more!!'

'shut up...' my life snickered and threw a pillow on his face, 'you are so silly, in law.'

'what? ya can't resist it, anyways!' shin chuckled, 'if ya wanna sleep, then sleep. i'll just watch ya' shin winked.

'we want privacy, shin...' i murmured as i slumber on my pillow

'geez, ya still want some privacy--'

'hey, in law...how did you open the door?' my life asked

'i used a key...the duplicate one...' shin laughed.

'ooh...smart ass!' my life complimented him and slumbered on my pillow too, 'by the way, you like keisha? you're singing a while a go, right?'

'nah, i just heard it from my niece. she called me and sang that song for me...' shin smiled

'ah..i see, how old is she?' my life asked

'7..' shin stood up and looked around, he got something on the floor, 'what's this? he slouched on the couch...'ah...a scrip story...'

'hey, don't you read that...' i said

'why?' he raised his eyebrows.

'let's read it in law!' my life jumped over the couch and looked at it, 'PRINCE vs ASSASSIN'

'sounds interesting...should i act it for ya guys?' shin asked

'sure! we'll watch you! make it good, ok? my life went beside me again as we waited on shin's performance

'ehem..ehem...the prince vs assassin...' shin bowed, 'hey, wait a sec..should i be the only one to act this? i need a partner, ya know'

'you can do it by yourself, you are a big boy now. so...start...' i said

'alright...alright...' shin sighed and stood there for a while

(i'll change the casing of the letters whenever it's in the story, alright? hm, do you get it? haha)
(FONT color: green-PRINCE, red-RYUUKA, pink-RYUUKA'S THOUGHTS, orange-TRADER, brown-GUARD, yellow-NARRATOR, light blue-OTHERS)

'IS PRINCE SAFELY IN BED?' shin stood firmly and then faced the other side, 'YES. NO TROUBLE, SIR.'

'THEY DIDN'T KNOW THAT AN ASSASSIN HAS TRIED TO KILL PRINCE INSIDE. UNFORTUNATELY FOR THAT ASSASSIN, PRINCE WAS AWAKE, GRABBED HIS HANDS AND CORNERED HIM ON THE BED.' shin narrated

'LET GO...' shin went on the sofa and stretched his arms

'how can you do it, shin?' i chuckled

'hm, i don't know!' he chuckled, 'just let me be'

'I KNOW THAT THE PENALTY FOR ASSASSINATION IS DEATH, SO ITS NONE OF YOUR CONCERN IF I COMMIT SUICIDE HERE AND NOW, IS IT?'

shin sat down and looked like he's holding someone's wrist...'THAT'S TRUE, BUT TO LET YOU DIE WOULD BE A PITY.'

shin pouted his lips.

'hey, what's that?' my life asked

'princ kissed the assassin here!' shin grinned.

'eh? may i see? may i see?' my life eyes flickered and read the script, 'so it is...my life really wanted to kiss me...' he winked at me.

'ah, yeah...whatever...'

'I KNOW SOMETHING BETTER THAN DYING. BECOME MY OWN. WOULDN'T YOU RATHER LIVE FOR MY SAKE?'

'AND THE ASSASSIN BLUSHED AND FELL DOWN ON THE BED...' shin fell down on the sofa and chuckled, 'that's funny...'

'why did i fall so easily on that script?' my life chuckled too, 'oh..well, just continue...'

'I'VE CHANGED MY MIND. I'M GOING TO LIVE SO THAT I CAN KILL YOU LATER' shin sat on the floor while leaning on the sofa

shin stood up, 'THAT IS SO INTERESTING. UNTIL THEN, BECOME MY OFFICIAL CONSORT.'

shin sat again...'STOP SAYING STUPID THINGS, THIS ISN'T A GAME.'

shid stood up again, 'IF YOU AGREE TO BECOME MY OFFICIAL CONSORT, YOU CAN TARGET ME A YOUR LEISURE.YOU CAN POUNCE WHENEVER YOU LIKE. HOWEVER, EVERY DAY THAT YOU TARGET ME AND FAIL, THERE WILL BE A PRICE TO PAY. EVERY FAILURE MEANS ONE NIGHT IN MY ARMS.'

'wow...i would love to, my life...' my life laughed and hugged me tightly, 'continue, in-law! i'm getting excited about this.'

'WHY?'

'YOU REALLY DON'T KNOW?' shin smiled

'I'M STILL HERE, THOUGHT IT WOULD BE BETTER TO BE DEAD.'

'pff...why am i that so negative in that story?' my life asked

'secret...' i answered.

'THE NEXT DAY AT THE HALL WAY...'

'RYUUKA!' shin shouted and looked like his holdong someone on his shoulder, 'DIDN''T I TELL YOU NOT TO GO OFF WITHOUT ME? COME ON, YOUR ROOM'S THIS WAY.'

'WHO IS THAT WOMAN?...OFFICIAL CONSORT AS YOU SAID?....UNTIL NOW PRINCE NEVER TOLD US ANYTHING ABOUT A ROYAL CONSORT ...SHE MUST BE USING HIM FOR POWER....THAT STRANGE WOMAN...NO ONE KNOWS....'

'what?! woman?! explain it to me, in law!' my life exclaimed.

'chillax, in law...our prince here made you a beautiful woman...that's why....' shin chuckled

'ah...i see...so you wanted me to look like a girl, my life?'

'just listen to the story, alright?' i said

'YOU'RE THE TALK OF THE COURT...ALL THE WOMEN WANT TO KNOW WHO YOU ARE AND WHERE YOU APPEARED FROM SO SUDDENLY. LOOKS LIKE THEY MIGHT BE A PROBLEM FOR YOU...' shin opened and closed the door

'RYUUKA POINTED HIS KNIFE ON PRINCE'S NECK.'

'BUT I WISH WE DIDN'T HAVE TO KEEP UP THE FARCE THAT YOU ARE A WOMAN. YOU REALLY ARE MUCH MORE BEAUTIFUL THIS WAY...'

'PRINCE GRABBED RYUUKA'S WRIST AND THE KNIFE WAS TOSSED AWAY FROM THEM....'

shin went over the sofa....'YESTERDAY, I'VE KNOWN IT THAT THIS MAN, PRINCE DOES WHAT HE SAYS HE WILL...I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT IT ALL MEANS BUT I BECAME AN ASSASSIN IN ORDER TO EAT . THERE'S NO CONTEMPT IN HIS WORDS.'

'ARE YOU STUPID?'

'ONE EMBRACE FOR ONE ATTEMPT, RIGHT?'

'BUT WHY DEMAND THESE SORT OF CONDITIONS FROM ME...? I THOUGHT...HE WOULD HOLD ME IN CONTEMPT, FIND ME DISTASTEFUL OR SAY HURTFUL OR TIRESOME THINGS..SO...SO WHY...? WHY DID HE CHOOSE TO LET ME LIVE...?'

shin pouted his lips again and grinned...

'ah..alright, i know now...' my life smiled....'and then?'

'WHAT? I'M COOPERATING.'

'IT'S NOTHING. I WAS JUST LOOKING FORWARD TO A LITTLE MORE RESISTANCE ON YOUR PART...'shin snickered, 'THOSE FLOWERS...I HAD THEM BROUGHT FOR YOU. THEY HAVE THE SAME NAME AS YOU...AREN'T THEY BEAUTIFUL?'

'eh? there's a flower like my name?' my life wondered

'none...i just thought of using it...'

'ah? ok....' my life chuckled

'IT'S TRUE THEY'RE BEAUTIFUL...THE FLOWERS...NOT ME...'

'WHY DO...SUCH A THING?' (shin's emotions are overflowing..as always...haha)

'BECAUSE I WANT YOU TO STAY BESIDE ME...'

'AFTER A WHILE, PRINCE LEFT....'

'DO I REALLY FIT HERE...?'....'SOMEHOW, I JUST CAN'T THINK OF MYSELF THIS WAY...THEN AGAIN THIS FEELING...'

'WHAT'S GOING ON?! LATELY, THAT WOMAN IS ALWAYS HANGING OFF WITH PRINCE! I WON'T FORGIVE HER!...DOESN'T HE NEED TO GET APPROVAL FOR THIS...'

'they are just envious...' my life chuckled...

'hey..the next scene would be inside ryuuka's room...' shin said

'HOW CAN YOU DODGE ME SO EASILY?'

'I'VE TRAINED IN MARTIAL ARTS AND SWORDSMANSHIP SINCE I WAS A LITTLE CHILD AND I HAVE EXPERIENCE. I NEED TO LIVE FOR THE SAKE OF THE COUNTRY. TELL ME, WHAT IS IT THAT YOU LIVE FOR?'

'I LIVE TO KILL YOU.'

IS THAT ALL THAT DRIVES YOU IN THIS WORLD?...HURRY AND BECOME MY OWN...' shin grinned

'hm?' my life wondered

'they're...' shin chuckled, ' i don't know how to describe it really...they're having their ML i think...right, prince?'

i simply nodded.

'after it...' shin said

'AH...THAT'S RIGHT. I'D FORGOTTEN. I SUMMONED A TRADER TO PREPARE A NEW KIMONO FOR YOU. WILL YOU ACCOMPANY ME TO COLLECT IT?'

'I'M NOT INTERESTED. BESIDES, I HAVE TO WATER THE FLOWERS.'

'SO...YOU LIKE THEM AFTER ALL...DON'T YOU?' shin smiled...'I THOUGHT YOU WOULD RETURN THE AFFECTION...'

'GET OUT!' shin shouted

'AND SO PRINCE WENT OUTSIDE...'

'THIS SITUATION IS INSANE...I'VE NEVER FELT THIS SORT OF ATMOSPHERE BEFORE...CAN I EVEN DO THIS? CAN I REALLY KILL PRINCE NOW...? WHAT AM I THINKING...OF COURSE I CAN DO IT! THIS IS MY JOB, I CAN'T TURN BACK NOW. I HAVE NO CHOICE. THAT ATMOSPHERE DOESN'T SUIT ME ANYWAY. I THINK IT'S TIME TO END THIS FARCE BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.'

'RYUUKA WENT OUT OF HIS ROOM AND LOOKED FOR PRINCE, HE FOUND HIM IN THE GUEST ROOM WITH THE TRADER...'

shin stood up and posed like a spy...'THAT'S THE TRADER? IMPOSSIBLE! THAT'S THE MOST FAMOUS KILLER IN ALL THE LAND!'

'hey! i'm the most! not the trader!' my life pouted his lips. i just patted him and pinched his cheek...

'IS THAT IT? HE'S THE PRINCE OF THE NATION SO I WAS SURPRISED WHEN I WAS CHOSEN TO ASSASSINATE HIM. I WAS SURPRISED...BUT I COULDN'T KILL HIM...WHAT'S THIS FEELING? COULD IT BE..THAT I...'

'PRINCE, THAT MAN IS A MURDERER.'

'RYUU..KA...'

'WHAT ON EARTH IS THIS NONSENSE?! YOU MUST BE OUT OF YOUR MIND, YOUNG LADY.' shin walked towards us...'THOUGH I DID TAKE SOME SPECIAL MEASURES JUST IN CASE I MIGHT MEET YOU.' shin showed us a sinister smile and looked like his holding a sword

'RYUUKA, LOOK OUT!'

'THANK GOODNESS...I'M NOT AFRAID TO DIE...I'VE BEEN READY FOR SO LONG..'

'RYUUKA!'

'PRINCE....PRINCE! SOMEONE CALL A DOCTOR!' shin shouted

'AFTER A WHILE....'

'IT MAY LEAVE A SCAR BUT YOUR LIFE ISN'T IN DANGER. SHE DID A NICE JOB IN THE TORNIQUET...BE SURE TO THANK HER...'

'THE DOCTOR LEFT AND PRINCE WENT TO RYUUKA'S ROOM...'

'YOU'RE NOT HURT ARE YOU?' shin smiled sweetly

'THE ONE WHO'S HURT IS YOU, ISN'T IT?'

'WHAT? THIS LITTLE SCARTCH? I KNEW THE RISKS...THE ROOM NEXT TO ME, THE ACCOMPANIMENT, THE CONFESSION. CAN I LET MY GUARD DOWN?...I'M ALWAYS PREPARED FOR ANOTHER ASSASSIN TO APPEAR. BUT THIS TIME, HE AIMED AT YOU...NOW, MORE THAN EVER...I NEED TO BE VIGILANT.'

'WHY DID YOU SAVE ME?...I HAVE NO RELATIVES. I'M A HUMAN WHO'S NEVER HAD ANYTHING...IT DOESN'T MATTER IF I LIVE OR DIE...!!'

'YOU ARE SO MUCH MORE THAN THAT TO ME...'

'DON'T THROW YOUR LIFE AWAY FOR SOMEONE LIKE ME!!' shin's tears fell down...(he's really crying this time...the hell...haha...), 'I'VE NEVER FELT ANYTHING LIKE THAT BEFORE, I THOUGHT YOU WERE GOING TO DIE! THAT'S THE FIRST TIME...THAT'S THE FIRST TIME I'VE EVER BEEN THAT SCARED....WHY...WHY FOR ME...?'

'I GUESS...THAT MEANS....I RELEASE YOU FROM THE CONTRACT. OF COURSE, I STILL WANT YOU TO BE MY OWN..BUT ONLY IF YOU WISH IT...' shin looked like his holding someone's chin...'BUT FROM THE START...THAT WAS YOUR WISH...WASN'T IT...?' shin kisses th air..(haha)

shin paused for a while...

'hey, what's next in law!?' my life exclaimed

'oh..no this part's x-rated!' shin laughed...'i won't narrate it anymore!'

'no! i want you to narrate it!'

'hm...i'll just tell a bit of it!' shin laighed again, 'PRINCE REMOVED RYUUKA'S CLOTHES AND LICK HIS....'

'lick what?' my life asked

'licked your manhood, my life...' i answered...'and sucked it.'

'ah...alright...' my life smiled...'then?'

'and thrust it inside....'

'geez, would ya stop that? it's early in the morning, orayt?' shin frowned, 'let me continue...'

'YOU'RE STILL TIGHT, AREN'T YOU....'

'Y...YOU WON'T DO THIS WITH OTHER GIRLS...WILL YOU!?'

'YOU'RE REALLY STRICT, AREN'T YOU?'

'YOU ALREADY HAVE SO MANY CONCUBINES...'

'THEY'RE MARRIGE OF CONVEINIENCE...NOT A SINGLE ONE IS OF ANY CONSEQUENCE TO ME...IT WOULD BE WONDERFUL TO HAVE ONLY YOU BESIDE ME...' shin smiled, 'THAT FIRST NIGHT WE MET...I THOUGHT THAT EVEN BEING KILLED BY YOU WOULD BE A PLEASURE...'

'AFTER...PRINCE FELL ASLEEP....'

'STILL...IF I DON'T GO BACK...THEY'LL KNOW I FAILED TO KILL PRINCE...AND WILL JUST SEND ANOTHER ASSASSIN...AND I WON'T EVER LET ANYONE HURT HIM AGAIN...HM...MAYBE I'LL JUST KILL KILL HIM AND WHEN THAT'S OVER, I'LL BEGIN LIVING FOR PRINCE'S SAKE...IT'S REALLY HARD TO LEAVE HIM THOUGH...' shin smiled

'YOU'RE AWAKE....'

'THE MAN WHO EMPLOYS YOU, HE'S THE ONE WHO NAMED RIIKE?'

'THAT'S HIS BRAND.'

'FROM THE NIGHT I FIRST LAID MY EYES ON YOU, I SUSPECTED AND SENT SOLDIERS TO SEARCH FOR THE HOUSE THAT OWNED THAT MARK...THE SUSPECTS HAVE BEEN ALREADY IMPRISONED. NOW, YOU'RE TRULY FREE.'

'THEN EVERYTHING UNTIL NOW HAS BEEN MEANINGLESS...'

'WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY SO EARLIER?!'

'HAD I TOLD YOU, YOU MIGHT HAVE STOPPED TRYING TO KILL ME AND YOU'D HAVE LEFT MY SIDE LONG AGO, WOULDN'T YOU? I WANTED YOU TO KEEP TYING TO KILL ME, SO THAT I COULD KEEP HOLDING ON YOU.'

'HOW LIKE A PRINCE...YOU PLAYED ME FROM THE START...SEDUCING ME WITH YOUR SWEETNESS...MAKING YOURSELF MY FAVORITE...'

'FROM HERE ON, YOU'RE ALL MINE.' shin kissed the air..'SET YOUR SIGHT ONLY ON ME...'

'the end...' i stood up and stretched my arms.

'wow...it's so good....' my life said

'it's so sweet...unbelievable...' shin agreed to

'yeah..whatever...let's eat...i'm hungry...' i walked toward the door but my life pulled me back, capturing me in his arms.

'let's stay here for a while...prince...' my lfe winked at me

'we can't. there's an intruder here....' i looked at shin

'it's alright...ya can do it with me....' shin grinned

'shut--'

my life kissed me passionately and hugged me tightly....'I LOVE YOU ALONE, PRINCE...'

'ok, it's over..let's eat now!' shin grabbed our hands and walked outside our room, 'ya can continue it later, don't ya worry.'
