A crazy assassin

After having their seventh kill, the king and queen called in the competitors but they will take a while to return and the king and queen was worried about their daughter.

While walking back the princess was worried about what happened between she and Martin.

"You okay back there?' Martin asked,

"Yeah i am fine" she replied with a frown,

"Why does your father want me dead?" she asked,

The prince stopped walking and turned around "why?, did something happen?" he asked,

'I just want to know" she said,

"Hmm probably because he sees you as a threat" he replied,

"A threat to what?" she asked,

He smiled "to be honest i do not really know, but i have a feeling it is because you are different from the other royals" he responded,

"Hmm i just want him to stop what he is doing" she said,

'Yes i know and you are determined, that could be one reason" he replied as he kept on walking and she followed him.

A little while after the girl eyes started to shut, apparently she hardly slept and was very tired so she collapsed on the ground, the prince turned around immediately and rushed to her.

He lifted her up in his arms and took her to a nearby cave, their he got her some water and lit a fire, he then wrote a message and sent it to the king and queen with a bird.

'When they got it, the very same time the other teams arrived, the had no choice but to announce the winner without them.

'I hope he takes care of her and return safe in the morning" the queen said,

"I am sure he will, relax" the king replied as he announced the winners which was Charlotte and Martin.

Mila was disappointed and had a thought if harming the princess but then decided to go relax after a long day, everyone went to their homes and the king and queen went back to the palace with Jake.

"Your highnesses when will the princess return?" he asked,

The queen smiled "do not worry, she will be back in the morning" the queen smiled,

"Okay.. uh i will be going home and return when she comes back" he said,

"Okay you take care" the king replied,

"I will thank you and good night" he said as he left.

"He is a great kid" the king said,

:Yeah he is, come on lets eat and go to bed i am tired" the queen replied,

The king laughed "okay come on my lady" he said as they went to their room.

The prince looked at the princess as she slept "i do not even understand my feeling for you if it is just an experiment of mine or are they actually real" he said to himself.

A few minutes later the girl woke up "sorry for the trouble" she said,

"It is fine, i sent a message to your parents apparently we won and your boyfriend's team got second, everyone went home it is after midnight" he replied,

"Yeah i know" she said as she sat up.

"What if i side with my father?" he asked,

Her eyes widened "wh.. what do you mean?" she asked,

"What if you have to fight against me Charlotte?" he asked,

"Uh.. i will do what i have to in order to protect this kingdom and my family" she said,

"I see, what if you get a chance to kill my father?" he asked,

The girl flung up "what the hell is wrong with you? unlike your father i am not a bloody killer" she shouted,

"Relax i was just asking a simple question" he said,

"How on earth was that a simple question?" she asked,

'All you had to do is say yes or no" he said,

'You know the more time i spend with you the more i think you are becoming just like your father" she replied.

He then grabbed on to her hand and she knocked it away "do not touch me, i am going, i have no intention on waiting till morning, come if you want and if not then stay i do not give a damn" she said as she walked away.

The prince sighed and followed her "you know, you will make a great queen" he said,

The girl sighed "it seems like he is deliberately saying things to piss me off or get to my feelings" she said to herself,

"Thanks now can we hurry it up?" she asked,

"Sure" he replied.

While they were walking they heard a branch broke, both of them stopped walked and stood near each other, while the prince and the girl grabbed their sword.

"I think someone has been following us for a while now" he said,

"Yeah i know and i have a pretty good idea about who it might be" she replied.

"It is you from the other night, i don not know your real name but you can come out" she shouted.

A minute later a guy in black came out "nice to meet you again" he said,

"No, you tired to kill me the last time we met" she replied,

"Sorry i was just doing my job" he said,

"Your job?" the prince asked,

"Oh yeah, it was given to me by your father" he responded,

"Damn it dad" he said to himself as he sighed,

"Martin, i suggest you stay out of this fight or else you are going to have a problem with your dad" she said,

"Yeah you do not want to piss him off or you know what will happen" the assassin said,

"Are you in a state to fight?" he asked,

"Are you kidding me?' she asked,

"Hmm you look exhausted and in my book it is not right to fight someone when he or she is not in a state to fight, it will not be fair" he said,

"You are crazy" Martin said,

"Say that again" the princess replied,

"You are right, i will meet you when you are yourself princess for now go home" he said as he disappeared.

The girl sighed and they continued their journey.

About 4am they arrived at the palace, both of them went to their rooms, took a bath and went to sleep pretending as if nothing happened between them.
