Taufan is not the type of guy who ran away from his problem, yeah no he’s not like that, infact he usually would ran straight into it and today is one of the moment.

He usually would handle it just fine and kinda get used to all the random situation he accidently got himself into, but this? This is a whole new level of trouble!

It’s all started innocently enough, he and the others had land on another planet for what was supposed to be a 'quick' mission, yeah nothing too serious but of course the universe have other plan for them.

When all his brothers walk pass the city with many weird shape blob house, taufan got distracted and stuck behind them while being very amazed by the colorful and interesting shape building.

His attention soon shifted to a glowing fruit that look like a mix of a mango and a disco ball hanging on a very odd looking tree, the fruit immedietly gain his interest as he’s planning to buy a couple of it as a souvenir to bring back to the station.

But then he notice a figured coming toward the town, her pink skin shine with a long glowing purple tentacles as her hair, complete with a glittering golden eyes that match her royalty aura, she stand gracefully on some kind of a hovering platform with her gorgeous lobe shimmering in their planet sunlight.

Princess zyra vellatrix is her name, as she come closer toward the center of the city, the crowd also parted away and raise their hand high above their head to greet their future ruler.

Taufan who are trying to not look like an idiot decided to show some respect by bowing down to her with a friendly smile plastered on his face, a nice friendly gesture right?

Wrong. Very wrong.

The crowd around him gasp dramatically before whisper can be heard around the aliens, taufan tilt his head as he look around him, did he do something wrong?

The crowd gasp once again when their princess six eyes widen with spark while her skin turned into a even brighter shade of pink.

The alien crowd stare at the scene for a good moment before the whispers among them quickly rising into an excited cheers while their princess completly froze in her place with her hand place gently on her mouth with a very sparkling eyes.

“Did… did he just- ?“ someone in the crowd whispered.

“oh my galaxy heaven he did!” another one squealed loudly much to taufan’s confusion.

He give them an akward look before he decided to flash on another smile and was about to dash off to catch up with his brothers who apperantly left him.

But before he could do so, the princess let out a delighted squeal follow by the crowd that erupted into applause, confusing him even more.

“uh… what’s going on?” taufan muttered while scratching his non itchy head and being totally no clue what currently happening, he was about to take a step away from them but he found that his path are being block by multiple heavily armor alien guard.

They stood tall with their body completly cover with a gleaming silver chestplate with a royal crest engraved in gold, their helmet completly cover their whole head which only reveal their glowing yellow eyes beneath the smooth visor.

“your highness, your proposal has been accepted by the royal princess!" one of them declared as the guards quickly bowing down deeply to him, while our wind boy? Oh he froze as his brain are struggling to catch up.

“huh? Sorry? My what has been what now??” taufan’s face drop as soon as he realise what the guard just said, he was about to argue but before he could do so, the princess float toward him with her eyes sparkling with joy.

“oh my dearest taufan!” she said happily, completely unaware the panic that slowly rise inside taufan’s head.

“How did you know my name?!” he ask with clear horror as the princess giggle at taufan's confusion, misunderstood hus reaction as shyness and find it adorable.

“don’t be silly my dear, come on now, Let’s plan our future together!” she said happily while she stretch her hand, expecting taufan to took it.

“Huh?! Future together?!” taufan stammered as he didn’t like the idea one bit.

“yes dear, let’s go now” Taufan looked around with desperation as he need to get out of there as soon as possible, so he without any second thought bolted out of there with his legs moved faster than they ever had in his life.

"NOPE, NOPE, NOPE, NOPE, NOPE!" he shouted while sprinting away from the princess and her guards, causing all of them to blink a few time.

Unfortunately for taufan, in the alien tradition, running away after proposing only meant one thing and that is you were so committed to the marriage that you couldn’t wait to make it official, the alien crowd once again erupted into cheers as taufan ran like his life depended on it, which in a way, it did.

"Look at him go! So romantic!"

"My! He's so excited!"

"He run so fast! He's so eager!"

As Taufan sprinted through the city streets, the alien crowd erupted into cheers louder than before which make the situation even more chaotic.

His heart beat faster in his chest and all his mind could think about at the moment is running away as fast as humanly possible.

"I AM NOT GETTING MARRIED!!" he yelled loudly on top of his lung with panic as he darted past multiple alien who seem happy to see their future king.

His legs are moving faster than they will ever moved before, the alien cheers? Oh they were deafening and to make things worse, they were getting louder and louder as if they were encouraging him to run faster.

Taufan’s mind was racing and he could barely focus on where he was running when all he have in mind is to get to his brothers as fast as possible.

After running aimlessly for a whole 10 minutes, he finally spotted his brothers in the distance, some of them looking annoyed while some of them seem to enjoy the view, clearly waiting for him and being completely unaware of the disaster unfolding because of him.

"Taufan! There you are!" Gempa said after he spot the very person they wait but his brows soon furrow when he notice how panic he is.

Taufan on the other hand without any hesitation run pass them, pulling ice's hoodie and drag him along with him, this cause the brothers to look confuse but they decided to chase after them from behind.

“What's going on?!” Gempa asked looking confused by the commotion and the cheering crowd that followed them closely behind, calling out taufan's name loudly like their life depend on it.

"Stop talking start running!" Taufan respond as he take a sharp turn to his right with all of his brothers following closely behind.

They run for a bit before they found a quiet alleyway and hide there for the time being, Taufan visibly can be seen gasping for air as he just have a whole marathon.

"Now, can you explain to us on what the hell is happening???" Blaze ask while he point at the crowd in the distance, the other are also looking at him as they also demanding an explanation.

"I don't even know!" He said while aggresively ruffling his own hair.

"I bowed, i smile and suddenly i am going to get married!" He said with clear stress, all he want is to buy some of that fruit, not getting himself a wife!

"Wait... You bow and smile?" Solar ask with a raises eyebrows.

"Yes! Thats what i did!, i just want to show respect toward their princess" He said while he look at solar.

"To a princess?" He ask again with a smirk while taufan look even more confuse but are annoyed now that their youngest seem to enjoy this.

"Yes? Why?" Taufan look at solar with suspicion, his gut telling him that whatever solar said next be a bad news to him.

"This idiot" halilintar grunt in annoyance before he pinch the bridge of his nose, can they have a peacefull and quick mission for once?

"you didn't read the information in the tablet did you?" gempa ask with a pokerface, making taufan smile sheepishly while rubbing his non itchy neck.

"well, you do know i don't do reading" he said which cause some of them to sigh in defeat while halilintar aggresively rub his now throbbing forehead.

"this is why you always end up in many unwanted trouble" gempa comment as he watch taufan who look away in embarassment.

"anyways, incase you didn't read it which you obviously didn't" solar said while giving him a side eyes.

"in this planet, more specifically in glormax's cultures, a bow followed by a friendly smile is considered a marriage proposal, in fact it is one of the most romantic gestures any of them can do" solar pause as he took a deep breath before he continue to explain again.

"another thing that is considered romantic is when the person immediately runs away and screams loudly after proposing which indicates that he can't wait to officiate the bride, which you idiot have done all of that already"

Solar said as he look at taufan with a dissapointed look, come on they just need to finish this quickly but here they are!

Taufan face went pale as he indeed just done all of that, and the fact that he accidently propose to a princess out of all the female alien make it even worse for him.

"i am doom!" taufan cry out loudly which follow by blaze who are trying his best to hold in his laughter

"can we just give her a gift basket and said that its a big misunderstanding?" ice ask while yawning, completly unbother by the whole situation.

"THAT WON'T WORK" taufan shrieked while pulling his own hair in distress.

"I AM TO YOUNG TO GET MARRIED!" he yell again while crouching down on the ground, halilintar shake his head before he slightly peak outside the alleyway to find multiple guard coming toward them, and he's pretty sure that they are looking for taufan.

"we are running out of time here, solar!" halilintar call out to him as the youngest gaze at him with a confuse look.

"any way to save this airhead?" he ask while solar begin to think hard, his eyes narrow slightly as his brain try to remember what he read a few hours ago.

"well, there is a way-"

"WHAT IS IT?!, TELL ME!!" solar word got cut off when taufan suddenly and aggresively hold his shoulder and shake their poor youngest violently.

"s-stop s-shaking m-me!" solar manage to said which luckily taufan listen and stop shaking our poor youngest, this however cause our little genius to hold his head due to the dizziness.

"Adeh..." He grunt while holding his head.

"So? What should we do?" Gempa ask while thorn walk toward their distress airhead brother and rub his back.

Solar pause for a brief moment which cause everyone to look at him calmly, well almost everyone because obviously Taufan are anything but calm.

"I forgot-"

"WHAT?!" Taufan shrieked as his panic skyrocketing while he pulled at his own hair, His widen with hus expression made it look like his entire world was crashing down.

Before anyone could react, a deep voice they didn't recognize enter their hearing which coming from outside the alley.

“Your Highness! There you are!” A group of armored guards enter which was led by the same one who had announced the proposal.

“We’ve been searching for you future king, It’s time to prepare for the ceremony!” he said warmly and respectfully.

"I’m not getting married!” Taufan shout loudly before he run off which follow by the rest of his siblings.

"Come back your highness!" The guard upon seeing all of them broke into a mad dash quickly chase after them.

Solar tried his best to keep up but due to him still feeling dizzy from Taufan’s earlier shaking are slowing him down but then, he felt himself being scooped up like a child.

"Whoa, what the!?" Solar protested as Gempa effortlessly picked him up with one arm.

“I can run just fine! Put me down!” Solar wriggled in Gempa’s grasp but gempa was having none of it.

“Sorry but we are running out of time here"he said casually as he sprinted ahead and barely breaking any sweat.

Behind them, Blaze was laughing hysterically while he continue to easily dodging through the streets as they passed many confused aliens who are preparing for the wedding festivities.

Taufan who are the main reason this happen turned back with wide desperate eyes.

“Solar! Remember what you forgot, NOW!” Solar groaned as his face slightly red with irritation as he hung in Gempa’s grip.

“I’m trying! But somebody shook my brain into mashed potatoes!” He shot an annoyed look at Taufan who was too busy panicking to notice.

As they running away from the guard through the city, they suddenly passed by an enormous towering wedding cake being carried by some of the locals.

The cake had vibrant decorations with many weird glass and fruit covering all over it, written proudly across the middle layer of the cake is a bold sparkling letters of Congratulations, Taufan and Princess Zyra!

“THEY ALREADY MADE A CAKE?!” taufan's eyes widen even more as he dodge the cake along with blaze who had also manage to dodge it with a quick leap while he burst into another round of laughter.

“Look! They even spelled your name right!” He cackled while he narrowly avoid knocking into one of the cake holders.

“I DON’T WANT A CAKE! I DON’T WANT A WIFE!” Taufan shouted as he keep dodging to the side just as some more aliens were setting up decorative arches.

The city was bustling with busy alien with many wedding preparations from stalls selling wedding clothes, flowers, and even royal couple trinkets, all with Taufan’s confused face and the princess’s radiant smile.

Solar mumbled under his breath as he trying his hardest to remember that one thing to save his second oldest brother from this chaos, but before he could do so, gempa suddenly throw him up with their third oldest sliding under a large pastry fill with cake.

His body soon got caught by thorn who suprisingly strong enough to run while carriying him.

"Wha?! Thorn?!" Thorn giggle at his reaction before he take a sharp turn and jump to avoid the guard, but soon he found himself being chase by the said guard dangeriously close.

"Up you go solar!"

"Wait wha-" he was once again toss high above with thorn summon his vines for him to swing which manage to barely avoid the guard grab.

No soon after he felt another hand catch him mid air as solar found himself in their oldest brother hand, halilintar click his tongue as he land perfectly on the ground before running again.

"Any luck solar?" Halilintar ask while narrowly avoid another alien who trying to decorate the whole planet with wedding decoration.

"Solar for galaxy sake we don't have much time left!" Taufan still in full panic mode keep running away for his singlehood as ice look around him as he casually being carried by blaze.

"Who know a single bow and smile can cause this much chaos" ice comment which also sent blaze to wheeze loudly.

"Oh look! A wedding invitations!" Thorn happily said while he open to reveal a holographic letter with taufans face next to princess zyra.

"WHAT?!" Taufan shout again before solar snap his finger with a smile.

"I remember!" His word sent a wave of hope for Taufan as the said brother now looking at him.

"What is it?" Gempa ask while he dodge another set of arms that trying to grab him with ice who swifly move to the side with the guard falling down due to them failing to catch him.

"one of the tradition for glormax is that they need to gain permission from the head family, either the parent or the oldest siblings" solar said which also cause Taufan to immedietly look at halilintar with a pleading look.

"And if they didn't get that permission, then the marriage is consider unofficial" solar said again which also cause our airhead to look at their oldest brother with hope.

"That simple and you forgot about that?" Thorn ask while giving solar the clasic bombastic side eyes.

"Shut up!" Solar said while also giving thorn a glare, before any of them can start an argument, a purple tentacles wrap around Taufan torso and yank him away from the others.

"Eek!" Taufan squiek as his sapphire blue eyes meet with six golden one, she smile warmly at him before she wrap her arm around his body.

"Oh my future husband! There you are!" She process to hug him tightly before she lean her face closer to taufan, clearly trying to kiss him.

"WO WO WO! HOLD IT!" Taufan with a mix of panic and dread process to push himself away from her as he didn't want that to happen.

"You need to ask his permission first!" He shouted while pointing frantically at Halilintar who stood a few feet away as he remember what solar just told them earlier, the princess paused for a moment with her brows furrowing in confusion.

“His permission?” she ask while she eyeing halilintar top to bottom.

“Yes! He’s my oldest brother!” Taufan insisted while still pointing at him as if Halilintar was the only thing keeping him safe from the impending kiss.

"All the inportant decision are in his hand!" He shout again loudly.

In an instant, the princess's expression shifted from delight to bewilderment, with a dramatic flair she dropped Taufan unceremoniously to the ground, and looking at halilintar with a warm smile.

“I see! Well then, let’s go ask him!” she declared while she marching toward Halilintar with purpose.

Taufan lay on the ground for a moment and being completely stunned before he glanced at Solar who was trying to suppress his laughter and then at Ice who had an amused smirk on his face.

Thorn seem to giggle at the sight while blaze are laughing like a maniac on the ground with gempa who sweatdrop at the scene.

“Excuse me, but is it true that you are Taufan’s oldest brother?" halilintar force on a smile as he internally cursing taufan for causing this mess in the first place.

“yes, i am” halilintar said calmly while he sent a quick glare at taufan for all of this chaos, the princess seem excited as she look at the oldest with hope.

"Oh dearest oldest brother, may i have your blessing for my union with my darling here?" She said happily while looking at taufan lovingly, taufan shiver as he can see the love shape heart in the princess eyes.

The crowd once again gather upon seeing the scene, each one of them wait for halilintar answer which also make it nerve wrecking.

"No" halilintar stated bluntly, he's already at his breaking point and didn't even hesitate to reject the so call union.

“Absolutely not.” the crowd gasped in unison with the princess smile drop, she look at him with a clear hint of her being upset.

"May i ask why?" Halilintar sigh before pitching the bridge of his nose, he process to look at taufan before looking at the crowd around him.

"Listen, i know this seem like a proposal but its clearly not" he casually said while he fold his arm on his chest.

"This idiot over here barely able to keep himself out of trouble" he continue as he earn himself a shout of 'hey!' from the said brother.

"Is a misunderstanding because of culture difference" solar speak up before bowing down to the princess, making sure to not cause another disaster.

"In our culture, bowing and smiling is a sign of greeting and us being polite, not a marriage proposal your highness" solar continue to explain which also cause various of reaction from the crowd.

"I see" princess zyra nod her head in understanding before she smile akwardly.

"Apology for causing this unwanted scene" she said which halilintar quickly nod at her word.

"Is alright your highness, i also would like to apologize for my idiotic brother's action that cause all of this" halilintar give her a deep bow, make sure that he won't accidently propose to her instead.

"Apology accepted" she said while looking down.

"This marriage are officially cancel" she announce loudly with Taufan who happily cheers

"Finnaly!" Taufan shout before he earn himself the famous ear Twister from gempa.

"Next time, read the information!" He said while he continue to lecture their poor airhead brother, the princess chuckle at the scene as she find it amusing.

Lesson learn for taufan, do NOT do anything in a planet if you didn't know anything about their culture, even a simple smile and a bow.
