The mysterious man's voice was deep and playful, rather energetic. I couldn't see his face properly due to the dark alley way and the hood that hid his face except for his cheeky looking smile. I squinted my eyes to adjust my eyesight in this dark area. 'God damn these eyes. My original eyes were used to the dark. At least God should have given me night vision goggles.'

"A woman with a peculiar dagger, please I mean no harm" he had a playful smile. 'He seems rather calm. Fishy if you ask me. He is plotting so-' I felt the earth beneath me rumble. 'This bastard is an earth user'

I saw him flick a finger, but he was too late because I already knew what he was planning just by feeling the earth beneath me. Thanks Takashi-sensei once again.

I leaped back, sliding back against the dirt. The earth where I stood rose up instantly clutching at the air like cage but was unable to catch me. The mysterious man whistled in amusement. "Someone with skills. I like it"

"But how did you know the earth beneath you was going to catch you." He asked.

"Coincidental guess" I lied not wanting him to know that I'm actually able to feel the earth not with magic of course.

He didn't say anything and was quite for a second when suddenly he gasped. "Diana?"

I froze in shock. 'Oh shit'

He started chuckling "I can't believe I stumble upon the runaway noble" he whipped a tear.

I had my Kunai in front of me just in case he attacks "Do I know you?" I gripped the handle so tight that my knuckles turned white.

"Hahahah. Your so funny Diana". I sweat dropped. "I'm serious, I don't know you" I repeated myself.

"This guy is even more mentally unstable then your are Artemis" Homura said from behind.

"Oh, I see you got an animal companion." He looked behind me in curiosity "Odd. I thought you despised animals and called them dirty creatures that disappear from the face of the earth" he scratched his head in confusion.

Homura gasped loudly. "No. You. Did. NOT". 'That was Diana, not me' that's what I wanted to tell him, but this stupid guy is here. "How could you hate on us beautiful creatures. Is it because we have a better life then you vile parasites? Huh! Huh!"

'Great. Now I have to listen to him complain about God knows how long. Thanks to you, fucking douche bag' I gritted my teeth quietly, tempted to shove this kunai up his ass crack.

"Artemis, Diana whatever your dumb name is. I can't believe I trusted you" he started with his dramatic act again.

"It looks like that little fox is offended" he mocked. "I'm very much offended" he corrected.

"So, Diana, have you forgotten me already" he crossed his hands. I blinked trying to go through Diana memories, but I could not find a single one that resembled the voice of his, just Damon's. I wanted to gag of how obsessed this bitch was with the crown prince of Aurum. 'It's a shame you didn't have a bed sheet and pillows with his face on them' I thought sarcastically.

"How am I supposed to forget if I haven't seen your face yet" I asked.

I saw a hint of a smile beneath his hood. Slowly stretching out his hand, he pulled the hood down revealing his identity. He had soft silky looking brown hair that matched the colour of a healthy-looking tree, he had sharp facial features making him look really handsome and young. About 20 or 21. His green eyes colour of a rainforest.

He features seem very familiar, but I can't place my finger on it.

"Still can't figure me out or is your head filled with your one sided love with the crown prince" he ridiculed me. My expression changed to a resting face. 'This guy isn't wrong. Diana's memories are filled with Damon and that's pretty much all her thoughts are based on.'

My attention came back when the sounds of metal clanging and footsteps of the Glacies knights were getting loud enough for me to hear.

"Tch" I clicked my tongue in complete annoyance. 'I just wanted to rest and catch my breath, but this fuck wit had to interfere'

"Heh, seems like that knight have caught up with you. What are you going to do now? you can't go back that way or they will see you and neither can you go this way since I'm blocking it. You have no choice but to surrender. Diana" he had a sinister grin like he just won.

I just blinked at him with reason to reply to his stupid statement.

"HAHAH this human is dumber than I thought" Homura laughed out. "Does he really think a bunch of metal humans and huge earth wall can stand against Artemis."

I wished this guy could understand him.

I run to where Homura was and when I did a huge earth wall rumble up. 'Is this guy trying to hand me over to Marcus by trapping me with this earth cage'

Homura laughed for me. "This human is too funny. I could watch him all day trying to catch an assassin with remarkable skill" he said as I scooped him carefully so I wouldn't hurt his paw.

"What are you going to do now? Your trapped both ways and you can't fly up"

"....." me and Homura looked at each other in facepalmed expression. "Is he really serious" Homura said in a bored tone.

"He really is"

"Leave before I lose another braincell because of his stupidity" he told me.

"Yeah, let's go" I turned around and started to run.

"Hey what are-" he didn't get to finish his sentence because I jumped onto the roof of the earth wall and ran across then to leap in the air and land on the roof of the wall.

"Sorry I couldn't remember who you were. I hope we never meet again, douchebag" I pointed my rude finger at him. He looked like he seen a ghost, pale like the colour of snow.

I turned and ran, ran like my life depended on it.

'I need to lose those annoying pests before I go and collect my last remaining resources'

"Ummm" Homura hummed getting my attention.

"What?" I answered.

"We have a slight problem" he peeked his head out from arm looking behind us.

I looked back to see the gut running after me, he was slow and had trouble running on the roof tiles. I was used to it and I know how to run along without getting my leg trapped in one but this guy..... Yeah, he sucked.

"DIANA GLACIES, STOP BY THE NAME OF THE PRINCE" he yelled out.

'Prince?'

"Did my ears hear it properly" Homura played with his ear. "Yeah, you did".

Brown hair, green eyes like the rainforest, handsome young looks and earth magic.

'PRINCE EDMOND!' I intentionally shrieked. "Why that guy?" I mentally wanted to cry.

Prince Edmond, the young prince of Terra. Not crown since his older brother Carl is taking over the kingdom as emperor. Carl is 29 already married with 2 kids. So no, he isn't one of the Male leads.

But Edmond, that idiotic douche bag. I can't believe out of all the sub male leads; I have to be chased down by this guy. Edmond has excellent tracking skills, the best in the whole human kingdoms of Alphyria which giving him one of the best spots under the black spades. Damon secret organisation. I think he was second in command. I don't know I didn't really pay attention to his details as much as the others. He was my least favourite character. A goofball with short term memories loss if you ask me.

He doesn't always take things seriously and is obsessed with living in the forest. Not the brightest prince in his generation.

Carl even had trouble trying to contain him that he gave up so long ago and doesn't care what he does anymore.

He too has a tragic ending like Neil. He gets rejected the same day he is eaten by cave trolls. Yeah,3 cave trolls. First goblins now trolls. As I said before this world has many mythical creatures, dragons, fairies, elves, and I can't remember the rest but those are some of things I have to watch out for on this journey.

How does he get eaten by the cave trolls? Gee I don't know how. Ask Ariana who would love to tell you the story of how stubbornly she wanted to go and check out the enchanted streams of Terror even though Edmond told a dozen of times that the place is taken over by trolls and other dangerous beasts. Yet that idiotic brain of hers that believed 'Oh I have light magic, no creature would ever dare to harm me'.....................................................................................................................................................

BITCH, EDMOND WAS CAPTURED, SKINED ALIVED, BUTCHERED THEN COOKED FOR A NICE EVENING MEAL DUE TO YOUR FUCKING NAÏVE, DUMBASS STUBBORN FUCKING DAUGHTER OF A HOE, PROSTITUTE, SLUT.

I wish it would have been you.

Damon was devastated to the loss of his best friend, whom he grew up with, trained with, and went to school with but lost him because of someone's pea brained head.

"Hey Artemis, what are you thinking?" Homura snapped me out of my daze. "Sorry, just minor details" I said.

"Who cares about that right now." he snapped at me. "because we have another problem on our paws" I had a gut feeling that I shouldn't look behind me, but my curiosity took the best of me. Looking behind myself, I nearly tripped over myself. I blinked a couple of times making sure I wasn't tripping myself.

But sadly I wasn't.

"ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME"
