Chapter 2 - The story begins, in the twin's birthday party

At the palace after two hours, the princesses are fully ready for the party

Jewel: "What did you see in the city? Really?!"

Sierra: "So many sweets and dolls were sold in pairs. It was fun."

Jewel: "I want to see it too."

Sierra: "sigh…I really wanted to stay for a little longer…" she smiled

Jewel: "The last time we tried to sneak to the city was ended being punished for a week."

Sierra: "Don't worry, I will take care of this." She looked at her with a cheerful look

Jewel: smiled "Okay!"

Sierra: "Now let's go"

 

 

 

 

The Hall was full with nobles. Dancing, drinking. Sierra was sitting on a chair.

 

Sierra: Talking in her mind "(sigh it is not fun at all)".

Aniston: he approached Sierra, whispered to her ears, and asked her for an audience in the terrace.

Sierra: "Mother… Can I?"

Queen: "Go ahead dear." ^ ^♥ she did not hesitate to let her daughter have a private talk with Aniston.

Sierra went to the balcony holding hands with Aniston.

Aniston: "Don't put yourself in danger princess. You should know that there are many who are willing to kidnap you or even worse."

Sierra: she remembered that he did not say a word when he was in the carriage escorting her to the palace when she fled. "But with all the training I've got---"

Aniston: he got closer to her, and put his hands on her shoulder and directly looked into her eyes "Please, I don't want to lose my precious woman."

Quiescence has conquered the atmosphere and she looked at him quietly.

She heard something moving in the bushes down there

Aniston: "Bothered by something?"

Sierra: "No it is nothing…" she answered politely.

Aniston: "Your gift is inside your room."

Sierra: smiled

Aniston: "Then, I will excuse myself." Grabbed her hands and kissed her

Sierra: nodded very politely and kept watching until Aniston left the balcony and went inside "No need for you to hide anymore." She meant the person who was hiding in the bushes. It was dark so she did not know his identity.

Hero: clapping his hands with a serious look in his face and a smile "The rumors were true. No one can hide from the princess. You are very well trained." he laughed "but that jerk---"

Sierra: "I think 'that jerk' was preparing to get you any moment now. Be careful." With a blank face.

Hero: "huh!"

One of the maids came: "Princess, please come inside. The performance will start now."

Sierra: whispered to him "…Be careful…" she said that without the notice of the maid.

 

........

Aniston discovered someone tied and placed in the basement near the place that Hero was hiding in. The tied man was naked and he is wearing his underwear only.

......

Sierra went inside and saw her sister near one of the giant cakes. She showed her smile from the bottom of her heart along with her sister. "The cake is the only one that can hear my wishes and grant them for me." Sierra said that in her heart

Everyone in the palace: "1…2…3…Now!"

Both princesses blew off the candles and made their wishes

Sierra: In her heart. "I wish to be free and journey all over the world." Then she looked at her sister and noticed a new necklace in her chest.

.........…..

Hero found someone with a smoke bomb. The bomber seemed to be amateur so he blew the plan when hero caught him.

Aniston: "Who's there!!?"

Hero: "Well, it seems that those are aiming to no good. Sir commander sir!!" sarcasm. Big smile in his face. Very confident.

..........

In the hall, everyone was enjoying the circus, magic performance and the food.

The host was lively representing the show.

The host: "Ladies and Gentlement, today in the twins princesses birthday. We will show you something you have never ever seen before."

Performance after performance and the night was filled with happiness and laughter.

The twins were sitting next to each other happily watching the performance. Benti and Baydoon were uncomfortable and sitting like a ball… cat loaf. Baydoon is sitting on Jewel while Benti is sitting near Sierra on the couch."

Sierra: "What's wrong with Benti?"

Jewel: "Baydoon is anxious as well. They don't seem to enjoy the crowd much."

Sierra: "Maybe they want to go to the bathroom. Guards, please escort them to our rooms."

Jewel: "Girls, follow the Guards."

Both cats: "Meawrrrr." And they follow the guards quietly.

host: "Come here princess." and he was aiming for Jewel.

Jewel: "Hm?"

Sierra: Smiled to her

Jewel was walking slowly and he offered his hand to hold the princess's hand but…

Aniston: he opened the door furiously. "We caught the rat." He caught Hero and brought him there.

Hero: "What the… Why did you catch me and let the real culprit run away."

Sierra: "You?!" in the dark back there in the balcony she couldn't see his face clearly but she remembered him. He is the one who she collided with in the city.

Aniston: "Do you think I will believe your story of the bomber."

Hero: "If I came to make a catastrophe, I should come with a sword not a necklace. I don't have anything in my possession." He meant the key made from diamond. He was holding the necklace of the princess she dropped in the town.

Sierra: "W-where did you find it? I thought I lost it forever."

Hero: "It dropped from you when you collided with me in the city earlier."

Aniston: "LIAR!"

Hero: "Tsk, Don't shout in my ears. What a pain in the neck you are just let me go already."

Aniston: "Now we caught the culprit, all of you, please enjoy the party."

Jewel grabbed the hand of the host and suddenly a smoke appeared around her.

Sierra is looking at the show smiling.

When the smoke disappeared....

Sierra: "Hm…. Where is Jewel?"

Aniston: "What's happening here?!!!"

Then an explosion occurred from the windows and the doors. Smoke covered the place

Aniston: Telling Hero "As we thought."

The people: "Cough, cough, cough."

Suddenly everyone heard a screaming

Sierra: "JEWEL!!"

Jewel: "!!!" 'cough' 'cough' "SIERRA!"

Sierra: "Oh no!" she tried to find her sister in the smoke. "JEWEL!" But someone grabbed her from behind. It was Hero.

Within the smoke, she didn't notice that someone was aiming the sword on her. That's why Hero caught. He caught her and kicked that person.

Hero: "Hey hold on don't wonder on your own." "Phew… That was close."

Sierra: "Leave me be!" and she has two swords in her hand.

Hero noticed the swords in her hands and loose his hand a bit. "So you can fight?"

Sierra: "Do you know how to fight?"

Hero: "Kidding? Of course I can!! You can count on me with that." He picked a sword from the ground and started fighting with it.

Sierra ran toward the kidnapper and Hero came too "I will help."

Hero cleared the road for Sierra.

Sierra: "Thanks!" nodded

Sierra: "Aniston, please keep the people safe. Don't worry, I will track kidnapper."

Aniston: "I'm coming with you." But she did not hear him because she was running.

Hero: He heard him "Don't worry. I will take care of her. I will keep her safe."

Aniston had no choice but to trust him and count on him "I'm counting on you! But keep your distant. I warn you!"

Hero nodded to him and turned then ran behind the princess.

When Sierra arrived to where her sister is. The kidnapper have already used a teleporting seal paper "You're next!" and gone.

Sierra fell on her knees with despair "NO!" she cried

Hero: "There is no time for crying. They will come after you too."

Sierra: "B-but why?! Why did they kidnap her?! Could it be…?" holding her shoulders.

Hero: "I don't know."

Sierra: "…"

Hero: "I promised the commander that I will keep you safe so…"

Someone came toward them running and was trying to kidnap Sierra too.

Hero grabbed her hand and kept running "Run!!"

They kept running and they reached a window but an explosion occurred there.

Sierra: 'Screaming'

Hero: Jumped on her to protect her "You okay?" he noticed that she passed out.

Hero: "Seriously!!!Your timing is very bad princess. You shouldn't... augh she is heavy. What about not letting your guard down? You shouldn't sleep in the middle of this commotion." He held her and trying to sneak outside the palace. "I will protect our princess no matter what!!"

A voice in his head. "Take Sierra outside the palace. She shall never remain here."

Hero: "!"

Soldiers were coming from both sides.

Hero ran as if he knew his way in the palace and lost the soldiers. And then opened a secret door in the wall and stayed there.

He was hearing the enemy's footsteps behind the walls

Soldier 1: "Where is she?"

Soldier 2: "We have to find the other princess."

Soldier 3: "The castle has fallen into our hand."

Soldier 4: his voice wasn't clear "….dfsdgfdyttuvtghjjfjj….Maximal…."

 Soldier 5: "At least they took care of the King and the Queen."

 Soldier 6: "The palace has fallen!"

Inside the hidden passage.

Hero: "The palace… has fallen."

Hero: "…" He looked serious and then he moved with the secret passage until he reached outside the capital while holding Sierra.

He looked at her face while he was running.

It was his time to leave again, to where he came from so he was lucky because the carriage was waiting for him outside the capital.
