Prince?

Uni was shocked by what Lvle had said, "Are you serious?!"

Lvle already seemed to be regretting his decision to tell him. "I said I might have a place. It's not 100% mine. It's my families."

Uni didn't seem to understand how this made it worse. "If it's your family's house, isn't it even better?"

Lvle facepalmed as he sighed, "That's the thing, me and my family's relationship isn't exactly the best."

"But didn't you say your family sent you on a mission to go to school here?"

"I should've clarified earlier. My family told me that about three years ago. I didn't really want that, so I took some cash and left." Uni's jaw had dropped. "You're telling me you ran away from home because you didn't want to go to school. Your family must be worried sick about you. They probably think you're dead!"

Lvle couldn't really say much because it was all true. thinking about it, Uni realized something, "So your family lives in the City Of Klosa?"

"Yeah."

"So that's why you've been here before."

"And that also explains why you acted so weird when I asked you about what it was like there."

In the midst of all this, they felt the cool stream of air coming back, and it was the girl running past them.

Uni was about to call out for her when Lvle stopped him. "Let's just follow her to see where she is headed. It looks to be in the same direction as where the entrance gate for Klosa is, so we might go to the same place."

"You're right. Let's follow the little girl." ^Saying I'm about to follow a little girl does not sit right with me^

They tried to keep a safe distance but still close enough to where they felt the nippy breeze coming off her. The more they followed her, the more their theory seemed accurate.

She was also going to the City Of Klosa, which made Uni and Lvle think she wasn't actually homeless. ^I guess you shouldn't judge a book by its cover^

Right before Uni and Lvle reached the gate, the tree they were using as cover got cut off, so they wouldn't go unnoticed anymore.

Looking around, many people were coming in and out of Klosa, proving how popular it is. But unfortunately, this made them lose sight of the little girl. Which forced them to step out if they didn't want to lose her forever.

Crouched on the ground, Uni spoke to Lvle. "How are we gonna get in?"

"Like I said before, I'm pretty famous here. Once the checkers see my face, they'll let us in."

"OK, I trust you." ^I wonder how famous Lvle is here. What did he do?^

Getting out of the bushes simultaneously.

They were now in the middle of all these people traveling in and out.

Everyone walking in the City had these tickets in their hands, and multiple people were checking them to let them in. Walking up to one of the checkers, Uni was nervous about what might transpire.

The man didn't look up Uni or Lvle, but he knew they were standing there. "Back of the line." The way he said it gave it an intimidating vibe, but Lvle was unwavering.

"If you look up, I think you're gonna understand why you just made a grave mistake." Sensing the smugness of this kid, the man felt annoyed because he didn't feel like dealing with arrogant kids.

"Look, I'll I'll say one more time, BACK OF THE LIN-" before he could finish his sentence, he did end up glancing at the boy, and for some reason, he was very shocked.

"What?! H-h-how? M-m-my a-a-apologizes, please, come in."

"Thank you, he's with me too."

Walking through the entrance, Uni looked back at the man, who appeared in a trance.

"See, I told you they would let us in as soon as they saw my face."

"Yeah, I guess so." ^Now I'm even more curious, how is he famous here?^

Before they almost lost focus, Uni caught sight of the girl. Next to a big burly man, he also saw something snow white in the little girls hand.

Following Uni's eyes, Lvle saw her with the big guy and figured that it might be her dad or some close relative her's.

"Look at that. I guess the little girl had a family all along. Now let's go."

Uni was still skeptical but didn't want to look like an idiot if that really was her father.

Forgetting about it, Uni ran to catch up with Lvle, "Are we going to see your family now?"

Lvle looked at Uni as if he was crazy, "No way I need more preparation. I can't just go there now."

"Didn't you come back here to see your family?"

"Yeah," Lvle said under his breath.

"Well then, let's go. Lead the way."

*Sigh* "OK."

Dragging his feet across the floor, Lvle was moving slowly. ^I guess I shouldn't blame him. He ran away from home and hasn't said anything to his family. They probably think he's dead, so coming back after all this time might make them freak out^

Walking more and more, Uni noticed that they were moving closer and closer to a massive palace. This made Uni wonder exactly where his family's house was because the closer they got, the less houses were around.

Walking even closer to the big palace, Uni asked where his house was, but he didn't respond.

They continued walking until the big palace was in front of them.

"Are you sure this is the right place? Maybe because you haven't been here in a while, you don't remember well."

Once again, Lvle didn't respond, but instead, he went up to the two guards at the front.

"Who are you?" one of the guards questioned.

"It's me." Once Lvle said that, the guard looked at his face, and when he did, the guard started to freak out, yelling.

"PRINCE LVLE HAS RETURNED!"
