"Oh, sorry." She curtsied, "I'm Chiyuki Sawyer, Master Don's apprentice." Chiyuki's face was still bright with smiles, "And yes, you're known all through out the fair-" She stopped for a moment, remembering that Fairie Godmothers and Fathers were not known to many mortals, "This fair profession. Master is always really happy too when you come to fix up the gardens.""Oh sorry." Momimi snapped back to reality, blushing again in embarrassment, "I suppose I should go back home. But I couldn't ask you to carry them all the way there. Were live a good thirty minute walk away from the village, Highness." It was disgraceful to ask him to do that. OOC// I love that movie >w< "I see. Well, if you would like, I can deliver the message for you, Miss." He watched as she patted Roy and after awhile, he finally went back into the stable and grabbed a saddle, "Have you ever ridden a horse before?"OOC// Gasp! You complimented Shelby! "No worries, Princess." Austin smiled, " I know what it's like to run from escorts." He looked her over, "I'm glad that you're hat fell though. You were hiding such lovely hair. Another piece of your beauty has graced my eyes. I'm glad to have seen it."

Maka blushed lightly and looked away from him. "Heh, yeah okay." When her blush was gone she looked back to him. "Why are you running?" She look out of the alley and deemed the coast clear and walked out and back onto the street. Musica turned to him abruptly with slightly wide eyes. "Eh?" When he put the saddle on Roy she knew he was serious. "Ah, no." She stepped away. "I really shouldn't. Um, it-it is the Count's horse afterall and I really should be getting back." She would be in so much trouble if her father found out what she was doing. As he would say, 'You were frollicing with a stable boy! And riding an animal! So unlady like! You must be a perfect lady to marry prince Darius.' Even though she really wanted to, so bad! Darius looked from her and around. "Oh, well in that case you can just ride in my carriage. It would be horrific of me to let a lady walk so far." Without letting her protest he pulled her back toward his diserted carriage and placed her inside and sat next to her. "Onward." He called to the carriage driver. "Which estate do you live dear?" Damon smiled. "It's nice to meet you lady Chiyuki." He bowed respectfully. "I'm glad i can please your master Lucibelle is doing dishes....

"The pleasure is mine." What an exciting moment. To meet such a master at the garden arts! Wait until Lucinda heard about his. "Oo! Is there anything I could get for you? I'm running into town.""The Alucard Estate." She mumbled. This could not be happening! Was she really riding in a royal carriage with the Prince? She had dreamed of this before, but never thought it would happen. Momimi felt just like Cinderella. There were so many girls who would die to be in her shoes right now. "Thank you, by the why, Highness. This is very kind of you." Aniken laughed, "I know you really want to. But I'll tell you what, I'll talk to him and if you change your mind, come talk to me, alright?" He patted Roy's head, "I'm sure Roy here would like it too, right boy." The horse whinnied in agreement.OOC// Dishes can be fun. You can make a game out of it smile Austin laughed, "Same situation as you, I'm afraid. Hiding from my escort. I wish father would trust me to see a new town by myself." He gazed up at the sky, admiring the clouds, "Wow, the sky is so blue here! So different from Hakusho!" There the skies were lavender.

Maka looked skeptically at him. "Your not from around here and your wandering around by yourself with no sense of direction?" She laughed. "That's just brilliant." Musica smiled lightly as she turned back around to look at him. "Well I shall require your name if I am to ask for you." She laughed lightly at Roy's whinnie. He was so adoreable! Darius smiled. "What kind of Prince would I be if I wasn't kind to my people." He leaned back in his seat and rest his chin on his hand. Damon smiled. "Actually if you would allow me to tag along with you i'd rather do that." Lucibelle is now covered in suds for she lost a battle with the dishes and her friend Molly. She left the kitchen with a huff and hurried down the hall toward the servent quarters to change her clothes. She had a pile of suds on her head.

"Oh, of course." Chiyuki smiled, "If there is anything you would like to get, let me know and I'll show you the best place to get it at." She peeked back into the house, "I'll be back later, Ruski!" She called to her little Pandragon before running back to Damon and leading the way.Momimi stared at her feet. The silence was killing her. But what was a girl suppose to say to a Prince? She had never been in a situation like this before. And it had been awhile since she was allowed to go to a party with the rest of her family. She twiddled with the handle to one of the bags. Her eyes shifting to Prince Darius every one in awhile. She tried to keep herself occupied by studying the interior of the carriage. Soon her thoughts began to wonder again, dreaming about what the palace must look like. It must be a beautiful place to live... "Leon." Aniken answered, "Call for Leon, and I will meet you here." Roy furrowed his brows and pushed on Aniken's back, "Sorry, and Roy. Ask for Leon and Roy." Roy nodded, looking pleased.Oscar yawned, reading his book. He thought Darius was suppose to be back by now? Someone at least to keep him company. But sooner than he thought, the green haired noble had fallen fast asleep in the cushion library chair. "How are you suppose to learn when someone is doing the work for you." He answered with his question. "I like to experience things on my once pace, not one planned out by an escort." Austin stretched his arms in the air and yawned, "It gets boring after awhile. It's the same routine everytime."

Maka nodded. "I guess that's true." She sniffed the air as the smell of sweet bread came to her nose. "Mmm. Smells like Maes has some new bread cooking. I definately want some of that." She grinned. She came up to the bakery and smiled to the man as she walked inside. "Oh, Hey Miss Maka. Hiding from the family again I see." "Hey Hughes. Can you spare some?" Musica nodded. "Alright. It was nice meeting you Leon." She smiled to the horse. "And Roy," She turned to leave once more. Darius turned lightly as the girl grew quiet. She seemed to be spaced out. He laughed lightly. "I believe we're here Miss." Damon nodded. "That would be very helpful dear." Lucibelle sighed as she left her quarters. "I guess I'll go see if Master Oscar is still here and if he needs anything." She went to the library and opened the door. "Mr. o-" She trailed off seeing him asleep. Oh he looked so handsome. She couldn't help herself so she moved her a few strands of his green hair from his face. How long had she known Master Oscar? 15 years? Ever since she had started working here. She sighed and frowned slightly. To bad he would never know how she felt. She wasn't royalty at all. Group up in an orphanage then transfered here.

They walked for about 15 minutes. Chiyuki kept herself occupied by admiring the scenery. She waved to the other villagers as they passed the two, smiling sweetly. "Here we are. Welcome to Alvalonia, Mr. Damon." She told him. The Fairie Godmother-in-training skipped along, still leading the gardener, into the market, making her first stop at a vegetable stand. She had to get some corn and other veggies for the celebration tonight. "Huh?" Momimi came back to the present and looked out the window. The lovely Alucard manner came into her view. "Oh, yes, thank you." The young girl climbed out of the carriage and took out the many bags of food and clothes, "Thank you again, you're highness." She bowed, "Please have a wonderful day." And she rushed inside, placing the bags on the kitchen counter. Momimi gave a romantic sigh and smiled lightly. "Looks like someone had a good day in town today." Winry, another made called as she came into the kitchen, "What happened, Miss Momimi?" Momimi chuckled, "I met the Prince today." The older maid's jaw dropped in shock, but turned into a smile, "Did you really? Tell me, what was he like?" Momimi leaned forward on the counter towards Winry, "He's just like I always dreamed. Kind, chivalrous, and handsome. I lost Mother, Eliza, and Henry in town, carrying all their things, when I bumped into him." She continued to tell her what happened till she came to the present. The old woman smiled, "He sounds wonderful. Eliza and your Step-mother would be so jealous if they heard." "Shh. Not a word to them. I want to ease the anger they'll probably have for me losing them, not escalate it." "Good day, ma'am." Aniken waved as the girl left. He smiled and patted Roy's nose, "She was a cutie, wasn't she, boy?" The horse grunted in agreement and Aniken laughed, "Hopefully we can see if she's a better suitor than Miss Sarafena." The boy was always trying to look for a different girl to marry besides his betrothed. He wanted a girl who would love him for him, and not his title. That's why he would introduce himself as Leon the stable boy instead of Count Aniken Rohdes.Oscar stirred slightly in his sleep. He readjusted himself in the chair, yawning again before becoming motionless, besides the light movement of his abdomen from breathing. Austin observed the girl as she talked to the baker. He sniffed the air. What a delicious smell! This bread was definitely different from the ones in Hakusho. The bread there was very sweet, made with the sweetest nectar. But this was different. There was a delicate mix of sweet and sour in the sent. And the crust had a nice shine to it. It was making the fairie Prince's mouth water.

Maka grinned as he broke off a piece for her. "And some for your boyfriend." Maka nearly choked on her bread. "I just met the guy on the street Hughes!" "Oh, My mistake." The man laughed and handed some bread to Austin. Maka sat on a barrel and muched on her bread. "How's the wifey and little girly?" She said making conversation. Musica got back in the carriage and headed back toward her own kingdom. "That took you a lot longer than expected Lady Musica. Run into your sisters? Or perhaps something good instead?" Her carriage driver asked. She smiled. "Something good for sure." She stared out the window. Darius spaced out as his carriage headed toward his kingdom. "She sure didn't have the face or manners of a servant..." He thought to himself. Damon followed her and smiled. "This place is lovely." He watched her gather some vegetables. Lucibelle gasped lightly and took a step back as he moved. "Lucibelle!" She turned abruptly as her name was gust out in a hoarse whisper. In the doorway stood the oldest maid on the grounds and the grumpiest, Helga. She came in and pulled Lucibelle out by her ear. "How dare you tocuh Master Oscar in such an intimate way. You will sweep the dungeons tonight!" Lucibelle sighed and rubbed her ear. "Yes mam." She looked up when someone cleared their throat. "Oh, Lady Shelby. We weren't expecting you." Lucibelle tried not to scowl as Helga smiled. "You must be looking for Master Oscar. Lucibelle can show you the way." Helga gave Lucibelle a look and left. Lucibelle hid a grimace. Why her? "Um, this way Lady Shelby." She started back down the hall, the way she was dragged just a moment ago. "It must be horrid being a peasent maid. Such ugly hair and a dirt covered face. I'm not sorryto say you will never be beautiful like royalty as me." Shelby whipped her hair over her shoulder. Lucibelle held back the retort of, 'well it has it's quirks like how i get to see your fiancee more than you do.' but of course she didn't say it. "Your right Lady Shelby. I'm afraid I'll never hold your type of beauty." She stopped at the library doors. "Now I advise you to be quiet he's sl-" She was cut off when Shelby pushed her to the side knocking her down and rushed through the doors. "OH OSCAR POPS~!" Shelby hollered into the library.

"Isn't it?" Chiyuki smiled, paying the vender, "I was so happy when Master Don said we could train here. It's so pretty here. Especially in the spring. But" She turned to face the man, "The best time of the year is the night before the winter solstice. That's when the Rorin Blossoms bloom. It's so beautiful." She fantasized about the golden flowers. "They only bloom for that one night during that whole year, but the time waiting for it is worth it." Momimi smiled, humming a tune as she peeled potatoes and cut other ingredients for stew. "Then after this I still have to do the laundry and some sweeping. I should be done after that for the day.... Although," She sighed, then frowning, "Knowing my luck, I'll just get more work to do in the end." Aniken wondered around till he heard his name being called from the training grounds. "Oh look Roy, it's time for us to show these navies who is the master of knighthood." He climbed back onto Roy's back once more and the two galloped to the others.Oscar shot up wide awake at the sudden shout from Shelby. He gave a load yawn and looked her way, "Good Afternoon, dear." He mumbled. That girl sure knew how to wake a man. And it wasn't a good way either. Smiling, Austin took a bite of the bread. "Ah!" Austin's eyes filled with Awe, "This bread is so delicious! Mr. Hughes! What is your secret, sir? You must be a master at making bread. I congratulate you, sir!" He was so enthusiastic about it. A little too happy for any regular human. But hey, it was the first time he tried human bread.

Maka chomped on her bread. "Geez. It's like you've never eaten bread before." Musica stepped out of her carriage and into her manor. She was instantly bombarded by her two sisters. "How was spending time with Prince Darius? You lucky bafoon. I can't believe you were chosen." Musica sighed and pushed past her sisters. "He wasn't in. Besides I had to run errands." She slipped inside her room and locked the door. "Silence..."Darius blah. Damon smiled. "I'd like to see that. When is it this year?" Lucibelle picked herself up off the floor and dusted herself off. "Oh Oscar pop! Why are you always over here and never visit my kingdom?" "I'll take my le-" "yes, yes. Leave." Shelby waved her off and as soon as the lasy turned around Lucibelle stuck her tongue out at her. She immediately stopped when she saw Oscar was watching. She slipped her tongue back into her mouth and bowed lightly before turning to go.

"Let's see," Chiyuki tapped her chin, thinking."I believe it's going to be the night of the Prince's engagement ball." She thought it over, confirming it in her head, "Yeah, the ball. It's tradition for the royal family to officially announce their engagement on during the Rorin blossom's bloom. Although, I don't see why they have to throw this ball. Everyone already knows he's marrying Lady Musica.""Oh!" Momimi bent down and picked up a small golden button with a shiny sapphire in the middle. "Where did this... Oh my!" She gasped in disbelief, "It must of come off of his highness's coat when we bumped into each other." As she could hear the front doors open, she quickly put it in her pocket and finished setting the table. OOC// I declare the family to be universal. Eliza, the step sister, is the same age as Momimi (17), and Henry, the Step-brother, is 10. Just so we ccan get more character interaction. "Alright boys. I want you all to work hard. For the few days, leading up to the Prince's Engagement ball, you are going to train by yourselves." Randolf, the knights-in-training's master told them, "If you wish to train with me, you may make an appointment to train at the royal grounds. Those of you that pass the final test shall be knighted at the opening ceremonies for the Solstice Festival. That is all. Dismissed!" Aniken and Roy rode off, head held high. So this was it. Only a week or so and then it was time for the final test. The test that would determine if he would become a knight and ride off to find his sister."Shelby, I still have duties here. I told you I'd visit when I had free time." That was a lie. He couldn't stand the girl. His parents were just marrying him off so they could get in a higher class. He would rather live alone than marry this girl. But there was nothing he could do. "As you probably see, I work so hard that I fall asleep doing my duties." "But I've never had human-" "Master Austin!" An plder voice called from behind him. The Prince froze, turning his head slowly i horror. There, running towards them in the crowd, was Don. "Ack! I've been spotted!" And before he could even run away, he was caught.

Maka held back a laugh. There was no way she could help him. Or could she? She wasn't sure of what to do. She looked from Austin to the older man. Musica sighed. and blah Darius smiled as he saw Lucibelle and Will heading toward the kitchen on his way to the library. Once there he saw Shelby pouting and Oscar. "Your still here Oscar? Sorry to keep you waiting. Hello Miss Shelby. Would you excuse him for a moment?" He smiled as Shelby left them and he closed the door. "Sorry. It looked like you needed saving." He laughed at his best friend. Damon grinned. "I'll have to make sure I'm around for that." He looked around. "Man this place sure is crowded. I come from a small village so i guess i'm not used to so many people." He laughed. Lucibelle rolled her eyes as she went down the hall. Stupid Lady Shelby. "Sometimes I wish I could just-" "Just what?" She looked up to see a butler. "Ah, hello Will. Nothing." Will gave her a look. "Uh huh. It's alright. We all wanna punch Lady Shelby sometimes. But I'm sure your the closest one to having the guts to do it." Lucibelle scoffed. "Tch. One day I will. You just wait." "Come on. Let's grab lunch."

"Well, it is the 2nd biggest Kingdom, next to Hakusho." She replied, then realizing her mistake again. Dang it. I need to think before I say. At this rate, he'll know all about the fairies by the end of the day.... She had to be more careful.Momimi bowed, "Welcome home, Madam. I have prepared lunch for you. I do hope your shopping day was well spent." Her step-mother turned and glared, "Yes, but it would have been better if you didn't lose us. How hard is it to keep up with us? Hm?" Eliza nodded, "Yeah, Momimi. You'd have to be stupid or something to not keep up with something right in front of you." She huffed, annoyed, "I had to carry all my bags by myself. I think I broke a nail." Momimi looked down and bowed again, "Yes, I'm sorry. I'll try not to let it happen again." Aniken is going to take a nap, yay!Oscar sighed, "Yeah, I did, thanks." He leaned back in his chair, "So, where have you been this afternoon? You missed tea with Musica." He laughed, "Not that that bothers me. More tea and sandwiches for me I guess." "Master Don, how lovely to-" "Young Prince," Don scowled, "If you remember, this is not familiar territory to you. You could get hurt or lost and then what would Hakusho do then? Hm?" Austin sighed, "I know. I just wanted to see the town for myself." Don's expression didn't change, "No buts. If you can't behave, I could always get your sister to come and show you around herself." Austin's jaw dropped, "Not Lizabeth. You wouldn't do that to me?" Don gave him a 'try me' look. He turned to Maka, "I'm so sorry that the young lord has disturbed you, Miss." He bowed to her.

Maka got an idea. "Actually, I was showing him around Sir." She smiled and went up to stand by Oscar's side. "I know my way around these parts better than anyone else. Garunteed." Musica is also sleeping. Darius sat down in a chair across from Oscar. "Nah. That's alright. I'm sure she had other things to do anyway." He rest his chin on his hand. It's not that he didn't like Musica. They were friends and all but they were nothing more and didn't like each other as anything more. Damon looked at her and then back toward the crowd. "I guess so. Where's the place you have to go next?" Lucibelle ate lunch. om nom nom.

Chiyuki looked at her list, "Let's see, oh! The butcher is having a sale on lamb today. I could make shepherd's pie!" The fairie mentally drooled. That sounded so good right now. "Let me know if you need anything too."Momimi is cleaning! OMG! Step-mama is a bitc..bitter scum bag! Aniken is going to take a nap, yay!"We'll she did deliver a letter, I belive." He replied. "But I'm sure she'll be back like always. Not much choice, right." He sighed and looked towards the door. "Look on the bright side, despite not wanting to marry each other, at least you like each other and are friends. I can't stand Shelby." He ran his finger through his hair, "But you know the nobles these days, it's all about status..." Austin blink, "She is? I mean.. Yes! She is!" Austin grinned and placed his arm around her shoulders, "See? I got it under control. Who could be a better escort than one who is a real native. Knows of all the cultures and everything!" Don looked at the two, skeptically. He couldn't argue with that, "Are you sure you are up to it, Miss? I don't want the young Lord disturbing you."
