Minime Kingdom: The Brave Princess

MKTBP06: My Disguise!

"Wow! That is a very large house. There are a lot of warriors here too." The little boy was looking from side to side.

Meme got down from the horse. We are in front of Tiny's mansion now. "Come!" Meme helped Tricio get down from the horse of Bryce.

"This place is called GARRETO or the warrior's camp." Meme smiled while Bryce had already jumped down from his horse. Then, a warrior came and took the horses.

"Warrior's camp?" Tricio's eyes widened in amazement. "You are both warriors of our Kingdom?"

Meme just smiled as an answer. Then, Tricio started to run from here to there with a wide smile on his face.

"Be careful," Meme shouted to Tricio.

Bryce walks towards Meme Tiny, "Are you sure that it's alright to bring a child here? The king will surely get angry when he knows this."

"Got angry? I found nothing wrong with what I've done. Besides, I'm so bored in this mansion. At least I and my Minnie can have someone to play with."

"But Princess, Tricio is a child. You don't know how stubborn children can be. My Princess, this is a warriors' camp, it's not a place to play," Bryce said.

Meme just rolled her eyes. "Don't worry, I have 30 maids in this mansion who can take care of Tricio. Besides, I wanna give justice to what happened to him and his mother." Meme looked at Tricio, who is now touching the flowers outside the mansion.

"Princess, you can't mingle with their problems. It's too small to be supervised by yourself."

"Bryce, it's no small problem. If it is, then the ministers must have resolved it. They judged the child and his mother wrongly, took their property, and bullied them." Meme started to walk towards the mansion.

"We need proof in order to help Tricio if that's the case." Bryce sighed, "Let me take care of it. And you, stay away from trouble and make sure that Tricio won't cause any problems in the camp. Or else..."

Bryce hadn't finished what he wanted to say yet when Meme Tiny spoke louder to stop him.

"Enough, I'm old now and I know what I'm doing. Ain't I the General here, and ain't I the Princess?" Meme lost her patience again.

Bryce immediately bowed his head and put his right hand on his left chest. "Please pardon me, your highness."

Meme Tiny sighed, "Relax!" I told her.

"Okay, fine. Make sure to resolve the case of Tricio and punish his relatives who trampled upon his rights. I'll give you one month. You have to take back the property and put it in Tricio's name. Also, his relatives who robbed their property and bullied him and his mother must be punished.

"Yes, your highness," Bryce humbly replied.

"Thank you for accompanying me lately. You may go now."

"I'll go ahead, your highness." Bryce immediately stepped two times backwards before he raised his head and put his right hand on his side. Then, he started to walk away.

"Meme, I want to go out," I said.

"He must not know that Fika and Princess Tiny were the same person. I'll just change my clothes before you approach and assist him here in the mansion," Meme instructed.

"Okay, let's change our clothes now."

"Wait, I guess I better tell Tricio that I'm leaving now." Meme started to walk towards Tricio.

"Tricio, I have to go somewhere. I'll just ask some servants to take care of you while I'm not around. Okay?" Meme smiled at the boy.

"You're leaving me?" His smiling face lately has changed into a sad one.

"Oh, no! It's just for the mean time. You know, sister Fika is a warrior and I have a lot of work to do. Don't worry, I'll be back after my duty. Besides, I will assign a good servant to help you." Meme tried to comfort Tricio.

"Okay, I understand." Tricio tried to smile. "Am I going to stay in this mansion? It's like a castle."

"Yes, from now on, this will be your home."

Then, Tricio hugged Meme. "I promised, I would be a good boy here. I will help the servants with their work too. Don't worry, I won't be stubborn."

Meme smiled, "Very good. Let me go now."

And Tricio let go of Meme. "Be careful!"

"Thank you." Meme gently pinched Tricio's right cheeks. "Be a good boy," Meme said before she walked away.

Meme looked back, and Tricio smiled while his hands were waving.

Meme walks to the back door of the mansion. There were two guards here at the back door and they blocked our way inside. "Who are you? Why are you covering your face?" the first guard asked.

"Commoners are not allowed to get inside here," the second guard said, holding his sword tight.

Meme Tiny immediately took off the cover on her face.

"Your Highness," the two guards said in chorus. Their eyes widened and they immediately bowed their heads, putting their right hands on their left chest.

"Pardon us, your highness, but why are you dressed so casually and covering your face?" the first guard asked.

Meme used to make certain that no one saw us in such a gown.We often came home late every time we went outside without the royal guards.

"Your highness, you went out again without your royal guards?" the second guard asked.

Meme glared at them. "Do you want to get out of this mansion and lose your jobs?" Meme's tone was so cold that anyone might be chilled to the bone.

The two guards immediately kneeled down because of fear. "We'll never say a word about this to anyone, your highness. Please forgive us, please forgive us." The two guards begged for forgiveness.

"Rise and forget what happened."

Meme immediately went inside the mansion and walked directly towards our room. Then, she changed her clothes.

Meme wore a simple, royal white dress. Well, she never wore dresses of different colors other than white. After fixing herself, she took her crown and wore it.

A general's uniform was made of steel, and we only used it when we personally trained the new warriors. Inside the mansion and walking around this warriors' camp, Meme can freely wear whatever dress she wants because she's a princess.

On the other hand, warriors must always wear their training uniform—an all-black, shining skinny jack and jeans. When doing fighting training, they wear the Minime Kingdom warriors' armor.

***

Meme went out of our room like the brave and strong Princess Tiny.

Even in a royal female dress, Meme's aura and walk were like those of a man — still and strong. She's walking without swaying her waist like the other women did. Chinning up, looking so confident and ferocious.
