- ❝I guess I can light your fire... Just once though.❞
- Abasi Firi wasn’t supposed to happen, his existence was a mistake twenty one years ago yet here he was. He was in this world. His father called him stubborn, saying that Abasi was there to stay no matter what anyone else said, therefore he was given the name Abasi since it meant stubborn. His father was kind to him even if he had every reason to kill him as a small child or hate him yet here he was giving him kindness. Then there was his mother. He loved his mother very much. She was truly the stubborn one, wanting to have Abasi no matter what. He loved her very much. And then… there was Ichiro, his elder brother. Ichiro was twenty five and thought himself much more superior than Abasi. But, he was. He was the elder brother, the one who would take over the family name and fortune.
It was illegal for Abasi to be alive or at least be in the Firi family. The one child law… He understood why it was there but still he feared it. So his parents came up with the only thing to do. Pretend Abasi wasn’t there. First they hid him as a small child. They made Ichiro swear not to tell anyone about his younger brother and hid him if neighbors or family members came over. When he turned twelve they thought up a new plan. If anyone asked they would say they bought Abasi and have him as a servant. He didn’t mind it. It was protecting himself and his family, besides he liked to clean and go out into town to shop. It was much better than being locked away. Ichiro liked the idea of pretending Abasi was a servant. If any of the older Firi’s friends were over he would have Abasi serve them and do whatever they wished. It was easy to see that Abasi tried to stay away from his elder brother as much as possible.
But secrets cannot be kept forever. No one knows how they found out but the entire village now knew. The Firi family was breaking a law, keeping secrets. The village elder wanted to show that no one was above the law so he let the villagers attack them. It was so sudden, the men barged into their home with weapons. Their father protected their mother, dying first and his mother was next as she tried to fight them off. Ichiro and Abasi managed to escape with only scratches but they had nowhere to go. Ichiro stopped speaking to his younger brother, blaming him for the predicament they were in. He didn’t talk to the other but they still stuck together. The Chinese hold family and honor to a much higher degree than anyone else.
So for a week they travelled side by side across towns, cities, villages, and even countries. Ichiro wore a black jacket with maching black pants, black slippers, and duffel bag on his back. While Abasi wore the blue dress with black on the sleeves with black pants and slippers, also carrying a black duffel bag. His hair was tied in a tight ponytail, his longest bangs reaching down a bit past his cheeks. (Basically this) They had heard that one place was hiring, needing servants. Ichiro wasn’t very happy about being something as lowly as a servant but this was natural to Abasi besides, this was a new country with different rules. They won’t be killed. Looking up at the giant castle, Abasi stared in amazement. He had seen temples before but nothing like this. They stopped at the grand doors and knocked. Now to hope that they would be accepted and no turned away. Who knew people hated Chinese so much? “I blame you for this,” Ichiro stated. That was the first time Ichiro spoke to him in a month. They were making progress.

❝ Close your eyes, if it sounds beautiful, then it is. Even if it doesn't act it. ❞
Keket Reid, an eighteen year old with nothing but greatness to look forward to in life. He was born to the King and Queen of Alainn, a country who’s name literally means beauty. His mother was a spunky red head with a happy personality to match, while his father was a calm raven who’s face was hidden half the time by his hair. Between his father’s love of cats and his mother’s love of being kind to all Keket grew up with what most call a beautiful personality, to match his beautiful face. He loved watching his parents as they ruled over the land, his mother handled the charities even playing with the children, while his father handled the military’s making sure their country was always safe. And it was. He had a perfect family. Until they got sick.
First it was his mother. Every day she grew more and more ill, the pain obvious on her freckled face. And when she finally passed his father was in nothing but tears. Keket still thinks his father passed away from a broken heart because of her death. They passed away when he was fifteen. Sure he misses them, but… at least they stayed together till the end. Just as their marriage vows said. They raised Keket well. This shouldn’t be too hard. With a nanny keeping an eye on him the young prince was able to make sure he could make them both proud.
He was now eighteen, the customary age to get married and exchange his title of Prince to King. But he still hasn’t found the perfect Princess. It’s not that he’s looking for a Princess to be exact. He just wants to find someone he clicks with. Whether he or she is a peasant, doesn’t matter. Because to him, they’d be his Princess.
Wearing a white fancy blouse, a green vest, black slacks, black dress shoes, his hair slicked back, and a crown on his head, he sat on a stone bench on his private balcony. Petting a budding flower on the railing he smiled. But not all quiet moments last long. Seti Akins wore a white shirt tucked into his gray working pants that were tucked into his black work books. He was a servent here, like all others that lived in this castle besides Keket. But he didn’t mind it. Cleaning wasn’t so bad if you’re not rushed. The only thing that sucks is when you’re stuck babysitting your nephew and you have work to do. Speaking of nephew Azizi Akins couldn’t be in a happier mood. His black hair with blonde stripes nicely cut to shape his five year old face. He giggled and tugged on his twenty-three year old uncles hair roughly. Normally it would be hard for him to tell his dad apart from his identical twin, but Seti made it easy by talking really funny.
Seti growled as his hair was pulled, walking to Keket’s balcony he stopped and said, “'is lord.” He waited for Keket to look over and smile. Obviously Seti let a small blush appear on his cheeks. He looks so great when he actually tries. “What is it?” Keket asked with a kind smile. Walking over Seti held out Azizi with a blank look. “Can yuu watch ‘im? Seti can’t work when ‘e keeps bozzering me.” Keket took the child happily and hugged him. He really did love kids and couldn’t wait for his own one day. Nodding at Seti so he could leave Keket went back to looking at the flower bud. Picking a flower he set it on Azizi’s lap before pointing at the bud. “One day that one will look just like this one Zi. It may not look like much now. But always remember, the best things take a while to show the prettiest smile.” He looked down at Azizi with a bright smile earning a giggle from the child. “Aimer oncle Keke.” He said reaching up and placing his hands on Keket’s cheeks. Keket had no idea what he said, but it must be good because he was smiling. He should really talk to Sekani about teaching him English better.

❝ I sure wish I could play wiz ze gears in zat chest mon cheri~. ❞
Sekani Akins, and Seti Akins, a pair of wild cards born out on the streets. No, literally, they were born on the street. Their mother wasn’t very good at planning this sort of thing. While their father was just stary eyed that they were blonde and that there was two of them. With their amazing parenting skills their kids came out perfect! Err… scratch that. Sekani came out to be just like his mother when it comes to his attitude about flirting and life. While his younger brother, by two minutes, came out as a possible serial killer. There are times even Sekani wonders if that stain isn’t just from lunch. And Seti developed a weird habit of talking in the third person, maybe the fact that everyone even their own parents got them confused at times. So they liked to dress the same, and have their hair the same, that doesn’t mean they are the same. Even if their looks could argue it.
There are those times where you realize it’s time to say good bye to your parents and move out. And by that Sekani means get a job because your mother begged an old friend to take her kids in and let them work as servants. How degrading. But to Seti it was enough to try setting the house on fire. Like hell he was going to kiss someone’s feet for a living! Then they met the people they would be servants to. The King and Queen of Alainn. Guess their mother kept in touch with her best friend and was able to get her to do her this favor. So the Akins brothers became sevents at the young age of seventeen. Seti hated it and rebeled whenever possible, but these people were like friggin gods, and their son was nothing but a rag mop with that hair.
Sekani however adapted quickly, loving his new home and his job. He also loved his co-workers. More spacificly he loved flirting with them. One in particular he flirted with the most. It didn’t take long for her to be his first, all the while Seti stuck his tongue out in disgust. Why do that with a girl when it’s far less digusting with a guy. And if you want a kid, just ask a wizard for a potion. Simple as that. At least that’s what Seti planned on doing later in life. Sekani made a mistake, as many teenager do when they’re a bit too excited about their first time with sex. He forgot the protection, and since she was a girl, she ended up pregnant. The day he found out the first thing Sekani said was, “My life… she is over.” While Seti laughed. Now who’s the stupid nuts twin now?!
Sekani did the responsible thing, with the Queen breathing down his neck about it, and stayed with the girl helping her with the kid. He did notice she didn’t really care for naming the kid, so when he finally showed up in a disgusting turning off from woman kind of way, Sekani got to give him his full name. Thus Azizi Akins was born. His mom did nothing, but expected everything. She made Sekani watch after his most of the time, and even had the nerve to leave him with Seti when it was her turn. So work and keeping an eye on him was hard. But Sekani put up with this… for a long five years. Did he cheat on his son’s mother? Yes. Many times, but the b***h started it first by sleeping with the damn milk boy. And now he was at his wits end.
Wearing a white blouse, black pants, dress shoes, and white gloves, Sekani left Azizi with Seti for the day he started the argument with his soon to be exgirlfriend. “Yuu are a ********’ beetch! O’ non Kani zat ‘ickie iz from yuu~ O’ non Kani I zought ‘e waz following me. Yuu lying ‘ore!” He yelled in an angry voice at the dark haired maid. She crossed her arms over her chest and was ready to throw out more than Sekani was giving. “You slept with the gardener, that girl in town with the brown hair and glasses, and that boy with pink hair!” Sekani rolled his eyes, “Zat iz just a small list compared to yuur own! Yuu are ze reason I preffer men now!” The girl gave a disgusted laugh, “Is that why you fooled around with your brother?” Sekani went to a shocked look. “Yuu said yuu’d never bring zat up!” She shook her head, “Times change.” Sekani couldn’t agree more with that. Now he was upset and annoyed. “Yuu never spend time wiz yuur son. Yuu don’t look at ‘im when yuu know ‘e iz starved for ze attention from yuu. Yuu vould razzer pretend ‘e wasn’t zere.” She smirked and said simply, “Look who finally catches on.” With that she picked up her bags. “I already quit. He’s all your problem, he looks like you anyway. Only good thing on him are those stripes of black in his hair.”
Not even hearing the knock at the front door she walked to the opening them and walking outside heading down the path. Sekani ran after her only to stop at the door and yell out to her, “Yuu ******** ‘ore! I ‘ope ze ******** volves eat yuu!” He growled and fisted his hands. If only he had something to throw at her stupid ugly face. She only stopped for a moment to laugh and flip off Sekani before continuing walking. Sekani fisted his hands watching her leave. This. This ******** woman is the reason he now only is attracted to men. Speaking of men that was when he finally noticed he made a commotion in front of two. Running a hand through his hair to fix it back to its normal style he looked at the two and forced a smile. Walking back to the door in front of the two he said, “Welcome to Prince Keket’s castle. What business do yuu two ‘ave ‘ere?”

- ❝I guess I can light your fire... Just once though.❞
- They both straightened up as the doors open, their Asian eyes widening a bit in shock. A woman in a maid’s uniform was running past hem, a man screaming at her. They both looked at one another. In Chinese Ichiro said, “I do not want to be here. This is stupid and that woman is smart, leaving this place.” Abasi scoffed and replied back in Chinese as the blonde was yelling and glaring at the retreating woman, “And go where? We can earn and save money here. It is our only chance.” Ichiro glared and looked away, not wanting to admit that his younger brother is right. Abasi looked at the blonde as he finally turned his attention to them. Bowing lightly as a sign of greeting he said in broken English, “Hello. We looking for job. We work hard… We promise we learn English better.” Well they were from a Chinese village and didn’t think they would be needing to completely learn English. At least they knew a bit and were willing to learn more. Ichiro did not bow at Sekani, not wanting to bow to a lowly servant. Now to the King he would bow but that is all. “I will no take order from man who no control his woman,” he stated, crossing his arms over his chest. Only a true man could control his wife or girlfriend, not have her running around screaming in such a dishonorable manner. Abasi elbowed Ichiro in the side and shushed him. In Chinese hey began to bicker until Ichiro quit, not wanting to fight in front of some servant. “Very sorry… He did no want to come here,” he said, apologizing for his elder brother.

Sekani blinked listening to the two. Aww their accents were even thicker than his. About time someone was less than understandable than him. But what Ichiro said made him glare at the man slightly, “She iz not mine woman.” He said in a matter of fact tone. His voice dripping with as much hate as he could muster at the meer mention of his ex. Watching the two argue he made a face, “Yuu don’t seem like what ze Prince vould ‘ire. Especially ‘im.” He looked at Ichiro with one of Seti’s blank looks. There was something about this guy that made him want to kill puppies. And puppies were cute. Looking back at Abasi he said, “But zat iz not mine decision. Come, ze Prince can decide.
" he stepped aside and motioned them to come inside.

- Ichiro rolled his eyes, not caring about the words coming out of Sekani’s mouth. Abasi looked down as the blonde servant basically said they wouldn’t fit in here. They needed this job… Nodding he said, “Alright.” What else could he say? A Firi never begs so he wouldn’t be getting on his hands and knees to beg for this job. Ichiro scoffed as the other mentioned him in that insult. This man just didn’t know that they both knew about fifty ways to kill him with just one hand. He missed the respect he was always given in his village. Is this what it felt like to be Abasi? They both followed the blonde inside and looked around in amazement. It was so big and beautiful.

Sekani stayed silent as he led them through the castle to the west wing and up the annoyingly long stairs. Making it to Keket’s room he knocked before pushing the door open. Looking around not seeing him he walked inside, that’s when he heard humming. Smiling he walked out onto the balcony and bowed. “Mine lord.” Keket had managed to get Azizi to fall asleep with the simple humming of a song and rocking him back and forth. Hearing Sekani he looked over with a kind smile and said, “What is it?” Sekani was a bit upset to see his son with the Prince, but he’ll talk to Seti about that later. “Some new workers showed up vanting a job.” Keket stood and walked closer to them.

- Ichiro and Abasi walked behind Sekani, following through the corridors and up the stairs. Walking into the main room, both of them blushed and looked away before quickly giving the Prince a deep bow. “My name Abasi Firi,” Abasi said straightening up, crossing his arms behind his back. “Ichiro Firi,” Ichiro said doing the same as Abasi. Abasi was much better at talking to those of higher social ranking seeing as how he had to pretend to be a servant most of his life. “We from Wukan, China… We leave, family killed. Need a job. We work very hard, learn better English,” he said, looking away at the mention of his parents while Ichiro clenched his jaw. It was only two weeks ago when they had lost their parents.

Keket smiled at them, he didn’t mind the broken English. It was cute, and two of his other servants spoke in it, but they refused to even try to learn better English. “I am Prince Keket Reid of Alainn, welcome to my home.” He greeted them while rocking Azizi lightly. Leaning over he kissed Abasi’s forehead, then Ichiro’s, though with Ichiro he needed to lean up a bit, but they seemed to be the same in height. This was just his own way of showing he appreciated the respect they were showing him. “I’m sorry about your family,” His expression softened slightly. He knows the feeling of losing parents. “You are welcome to work for me. I do apologize though, you will need to start out low as cleaners until I can see what you both would be best suited for for your skills. I hope you don’t mind.”

- Abasi and Ichiro stood still, not wanting to upset the Prince. The rulers in their land were a bit like dictators and very strict. At the kiss they both blushed and relaxed slightly. This prince was much different from any ruler they had come across. “Xie xie,” they both said in unison. Yes, this man was very kind indeed. Abasi smiled lightly as the other agreed to let them work in their castle. He didn’t mind starting out at the bottom. Glancing at Ichiro he was relieved to see the other knew not to snap at the Prince although he was clearly unhappy at being some cleaner. They both bowed again in thanks.

“I hope you can see this as your home as I do. I hope we can even be friends with time. Feel free to come to me if you need anything.” Keket said with a small chuckle. What? He didn’t have friends outside the castle grounds, so he made friends with those in the castle walls. Looking at Sekani he said, “Give them a tour, shew them their rooms, then take them to Seti so he can show them their job and how it is best done.” Hugging Azizi he nuzzled the top of his head. “Answer all their questions, the stupid question is one never asked.” With that he walked back over to the bench and sat down going back to his humming. Sekani groaned, he hated giving tours, it made him feel like he was showing them a museum. And the Seti thing… yeah that will be fun. Seti hates his job. But that’s what he gets for setting the kitchen on fire last month. Looking at them he pointed at himself, “Sekani Akins. Come, come.” With that he walked out of the room.

- Abasi smiled lightly, truly liking this Prince Keket. Nodding he let his hands fall to his side. Turning, they both looked at Sekani expectantly. Yeah, they both already didn’t like him. This blonde was rude to them and seemed to have some sort of issues. They both followed him out, feeling much more relieved. They had a job working for a kind Prince and will have their own rooms. No more sleeping on the cold ground. “We have to wear uniform,” Ichiro asked, motioning to what Sekani was wearing. Ugh… Western style clothes. Thy much more preferred their own clothes.

Sekani chuckled and nodded, “Oui, as cleaners yuu ‘ave to vear a uniform. Yuu can only vear vat yuu vant eef Keket says ozzerwise.” He explained with a chuckle. He hated his uniform to, but he was allowed to wear what he wanted on occasions. “But yuu’ll like ze uniforms, yuu don’t vant yuur good clozs getting dirty.” He walked down the stairs of the west wing and headed towards the east. Everyone else had a room or shared a room in the west wing. Either they lived here or came here everyday for work. Stopping at two giant doors he pushed them open to show the library, “We are allowed to use ‘is library as long as we keep eet nice.”

- Ichiro looked at the blonde in shock. They were going to get dirty? Oh no, Abasi was going to do the dirty work then. He wanted to come here… “We understand. Xie xie,” Abasi said politely. Yes, he did not like Sekani but Sekani was still his superior so he must be polite. Stopping at the doors, they looked into the library and gasped. It was huge! But, he doubted there was anything in Chinese here so he would have to wait until he learned English a bit more.
