Rose's POV
When I finally lost the crowd of fans, I realized that I had also lost track Spade. "Damn it..." I thought.
Im currently wearing my casual wear. A white tank top and black legings with my black and blood red cape. My cape is strapped onto my shoulders and comes with a hood. I put my hair into a ponytail and put my hood on to look for her.

Spade POV
I lost her, thankfully. I also found Ben near one of the market stands.
"Hey, I found you!" I yelled running towards him.
He noticed me and finished his business with the one running the stand. He walked over to me.
"Well you seem happy to see me~" He teased.
"Ha ha very funny." I fake laughed. "I think we need to leave."
"Why?" He asked fretfully.
"I saw Rose and Rose saw me. Do I need to say more?" I say as I dragged him by the arm.
"No." he mumbled.
I dragged him into an alleyway to try and sneak back to the gates.
And that was a mistake...
Once I turned into the alleyway, I saw Rose in her hood. I froze up.
"H-hi Rose..." I stuttered.
"What are you doing outside of your village." She said sternly.
"Simple, I escaped." I said bluntly.
She didn't really seem surprised.
"So you took your boyfriend along with you?" She asked.
"B-boyfriend?" I asked. I could already tell that Ben was probably blushing. "He isn't my boyfriend. He's my guard."
"Oh really? Then guard this!" She yelled as her weapon appeared in her hand.
It is a Sword. But if you press a button on the handle it extends and you can swing it to reach long distance enemy's. She summoned it and got ready to swing.
Ben ran from behind be and pulled out his own sword. He swiflty blocked her attack.
"Heh, not bad." She said.
"Spade go! I'll catch up with you don't worry!" He demanded.
I turned around and ran. "Why is she doing this?" I thought frantically.
Once I reached the gates, I saw our horses were outside tied to a fence post.
"Where is Ben?" I wondered.
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
Ben POV
Once Spade ran away, Rose attacked again. She raised her sword and tried to attack my side. I blocked it. "Why are you doin this?" I asked desperatly.
"She shouldnt have escaped! Now we are all going to feel Leroy's wrath!" She yelled.
"Im sure Leroy isn't going to do anything, it's a double edged sword for him. And he never cared about her anyway!" I said trying to reason with her.
"Trust me, I know Leroy. He doesnt care about the risks he takes. He just cares about the reward." She said.
She raised her sword to attack again, but instead of blocking it. I just dodged it and ran. Im surprised I lasted that long, Rose is the strongest of the four leaders in this region. She must have not been thinking clearly...
As I started to get closer to the gates, I saw Spade. "Im here!" I yelled.
She looked back. "Thank goodness, now lets go!"
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
Spade POV
Its night time now. We are traveling through an open forest. My eyelids start to feel heavy. Ben sees this and laughs.
"So we should stop?" He asked looking at me pitifully.
"Yes..." I said drowsily.
We stopped and set up the tents and campfire. I didn't want to go to bed with an empty stomach so I sat in front of the campfire and ate some chicken I had roasted. Once I finished that, I couldnt stay awake for much longer and I let my mind drift off to sleep.
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
Ben POV
I was sitting next to Spade in front of the campfire. Just looking up in awe at the night sky.
"It really is beautiful, like she said." I thought.
Something that caused me to jump slightly is that I felt a weight on my shoulder.
I looked over and Spade had drifted off to sleep.
"Well I guess this means Im not moving tonight..." I thought.
But I wasnt mad. She looked so cute like this. So I decided to drift off as well. It wouldnt be my first time sleeping in a siting position.

Spade POV
I slowly wake up, seeing the sunlight. It takes some time for my eyes to adjust to the light. I sit up and look over.
"Is that- Ben?" I thought.
Ben was siting up and apeared to be asleep. Thats weird. I tryed to recollect what happened last night. I put together the puzzle pieces and start to blush.
I quickly brushed it off and reached for my bag for something to eat. I pulled out an orange and a bannana. To make it sweeter I walked over to Ben's bag and grabbed his honey.
Once I finished eating, I thought I would go explore a bit before we wakes up. I stood up and walked through the forest. I was fairly confident that I could get back with no problems.
There was nothing much to see really. Just tree's. I did hear animal sounds that made me uneasy.
"I should have brought a sword". I thought.
The forest reminded me of something. I reached into my pocket and pulled out the leaf pin so see if it would change another color. It turned purple.
"I wonder what the colors mean?" I thought.
I kept walking. Soon enough I saw a spot filled with flowers. mostly daisys but they were still pretty. I knelt down and picked some. I only stopped because I heard the sound of movement.
I quickly stood up and looked around. "Who's there?" I said fearful, hoping I didn't get an answer.
Thankfully I didn't. I decided that I should be getting back. I turned around knowing that I just walked in a straight line. My biggest mistake was turning around though.
Suddenly I was kicked to the ground, landing on my stomach. I flipped over only to find a sword inches from my face. I looked up to see who my attacker was.
She had blonde hair in a messy ponytail, blue eyes, and a armor suit on. She looked down at me.
"You don't look so strong." She started. "Tell me, who are you?"
