Not So Damsel-In-Distress (1×1 w/ Mr.Aznable)

[Mr.Aznable]

"I take it that you do not wish to marry?" He asked.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She shook her head, "None of the princes or knights interest me..."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

"Ah, I see you must have fallen for such a handsome one as I, hm?" He grinned.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She blushed darkly, "O-Oh, um...I-I'm not sure..."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He laughed heartily. "I merely jest.." he smiled.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She laughed softly, smiling a bit, "Of course.."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

After a bit, he made a noise. "Would you mind if I showed you around? It would seem rude not to treat a guest in such a way.."

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She blushed and stood, offering her hand, "I would love that."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He smiled and gently took her hand as he showed her through the vast, crystal lined caverns of his mountains.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She looked around in awe, never seeing anything so beautiful before, "Amazing..."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

"Thank you.. I have kept this land safe for.. well, since as long as I can remember, truly.."

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"If it isn't rude to ask...how old are you?" She asked, looking up at him.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

"Old enough to stop caring.." he smiled. "Ancient by your standards, but barely a mature male by my species' standard."

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"Oh, I see..." She said, "If it isn't bold or rude, you do not look 'ancient' to me..."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

He smiled. "Thank you. Glad to hear I'm not looking old.."

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She smiled and giggled softly behind her hand.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

The time passes and soon, she finds herself more and more enjoying his company.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She liked being around him and hearing his stories, tales of his childhood and how he protected his mountains. It was fascinating.
A day came where while sitting in his cave and telling him of the palace she called home, Amina and Miron both heard to sounds of armor and horses. The knights and guard had found her. "Foul beast!" A voice echoed into the stone, "Release the princess or face your death!"

 

[Mr.Aznable]

Miron made a noise. "What..? How have they found us..?"

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"I-I don't know..." She muttered, fearful. "Do you surrender, beast?!" The knight called. Amina looked up at Miron and frowned gently. "I won't let them hurt you...I had so much fun..."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

"I.." he sighed softly. "I will come back for you.." he said. "I surrender. I am sending the Princess back to you now." He said to the knights.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

She looked back at him as she left, offering a sad smile, "Please stay safe, Miron..." She said gently.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

"You as well, Amina.." he said softly.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

And then she was gone. He was alone again. As she returned to her home, she was greeted with tears and joyful cries. But she was empty. She already missed Miron so much that her chest ached.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

As the days turnes to weeks, Miron's loneliness only grew. He missed her so much
