"Get up, I can't keep dragging you forever like this."Ichina stops and lets Azuka go. He gets up dusting his butt off. "We have to hurry Azuka," Ichina says, looking behind Azuka to see if anyone had caught up to them. Azuka nods and they both start running again, "Hey I know this may be an awkward moment, but what's your name again?" Ichina chuckles slightly slowing down, "It's Ichina," she smiles at Azuka only for a second.
I can't get all friendly in a situation like this, we need to get out of here. I don't even know where we should go- Ichina looks around her, it strikes her a sense of familiarity.
"Hey! Ichina, do you know where the exit is, I feel like the knights are going to catch up."
"Of course I know where the exit is, just follow me!"
"I know that I have to follow you and all, but if shit hits the fan... I want to get the hell out of here."
"You have such a foul mouth, how immature are you!"
"Immature! I'm fucking 15, how old are you?"
Ichina smirks, "Show respect to your seniors, I'm 16."
"I can't even call you a senior, young lady."
Ichina punches Azuka while they were both running, knocking him down, rolling across the floor. In place of Azuka was surprisingly a lance. The lance retracts to Jugann who is a few feet away from them. Jugann leaps into the air toward Azuka, rubbing his cheek as the pain from the Ichina's punch had not yet subsided. As Jugann strikes down on him like lightning, Azuka hastily scurries over to Ichina. She picks him up and they both start running away.
Jugann leaves a crater in the floor, Azuka barely escapes, Jugann quickly pulls her lance out of the floor and takes aim toward Azuka. However she notices Jun rushing past her, stopping herself from continuing anymore action, she lowers her lance. Jun swings his sword with amazing speed, leaving scratches on Azuka only, completely missing Ichina on purpose. Azuka endures the pain and continues to run down the hall. From down the hall Azuka could see hints of light, he looks over at Ichina who has started smiling. "Azuka, we made it," Ichina exclaims, but her celebration is cut short, by Jun's intense speed.
He manages to get ahead of them, with one swing he stops them in their tracks. I have to limit myself, I cannot cause too much damage to the castle, Jun thinks. Azuka ignites his hands he puts his hands up readying himself for a tough fight. Ichina rushes at Jun who is caught off guard with the Princess's charge. She delivers a high kick to his chest, while her left leg is up she jumps with her right leg and delivers a spin kick to Jun's head. This cuases Jun to fly through a few walls to his right. Once Ichina lands on her feet she rips off the dress she was wearing to reveal a battle outfit for better movements. The battle outfit consisted of black short shorts and a white sleeveless tank top.
Azuka is surprised and lowers his guard, "Azuka watch out," Ichina warns Azuka running to get to him in time. Azuka turns around quickly to see Jugann's lance hurling toward him. Azuka thinks back to his Bounty Hunter kicking the lance away, he ignites his legs with flames and kicks at the lance as hard as possible. The lance is launched upward through multiple floors up the castle, it stops 6 floors up sticking in the ceiling. While Azuka is admiring the damage he was able to do, Jugann closes in on him, punching him in his gut. He holds his stomach and stands his ground, only being sent back a few inches, his legs still ignited with flames.
Jugann starts calling back her lance, which reaches her within seconds. She starts lunging at Azuka hoping to hit the many scratches on him to further deepen the wounds. He blocks the attacks, but more and more wounds appear. Ichina continues observing the hole she had made by launching Jun, we have to end this quickly, the other knights are probably catching up by now. As she thinks this Jun's sword extends through all the holes and stops shortly before hitting the perfectly undamaged wall. They won't do any massive damage to me, I need to focus on saving Azuka.
Ichina turns around running toward Azuka, who has ignited his hands with flames and extinguished the flames on his legs. He purposely slips up and falls down to confuse Jugann who stops attacking. He then uses his hands to launch him into the air, flipping mid air he straightens himself and starts throwing a punch. Jugann throws her lance past Azuka and Ichina. Jun begins to swing his sword similar to a baseball bat and hits Jugann's lance sending it back to her. To increase the speed of the lance coming back to her, she calls it back. Catching it she spins around bluntly hitting Azuka with the lance downward. He coughs up some blood, Ichina ignores Jugann and starts to drag Azuka away.
"Sorry about this Azuka," while running, Ichina throws Azuka over Jun's blade, she then slides under it as it attempts to cut Azuka while he was over it. Ichina grabs Azuka once again and starts running with him being dragged around, leaving blood drops behind. They both were on an exposed bridge as Ichina contemplates their next move. If I can jump off of this bridge I can escape into the kingdom. Once I'm in town, they won't dare to attack a Princess in front of her own citizens. Jun's sword extends once more to pierce in between Ichina and Azuka. They actually hit me, she thinks while looking at the small wound she had.
She drops to the ground as the sword shrinks. It hurts like hell, she thinks with clear pain visible from her face. I can't give up now, after all Azuka had to go through, after getting this far... Ichina stands back up and leaps off the bridge.
I did it. I actually jumped. Ichina cried out of pain or joy, whether it was she knew she was not finished. Azuka was unconcious, but his wounds started healing slightly. At least he will be fine, she grins. She then starts running again, I never ran this much before, but I have to keep going to reach the docks, I can't stop, I won't stop.
Ichina runs through the kingdom like a madwoman, many citizens attempt to stop her, ask her what's wrong, ask if she needs assistance, or simply turn the other cheek. She responded the same way each time, with a desperate, worried, determined look on her face. When she was deep into the forest near the mountain she takes a rest placing Azuka down by a tree, he had fully healed, but he was not waking up. Ichina was completely exhausted, it was late in the morning, but she had felt like she needed to take a nap. She sits next to Azuka placing her head on his sleeping shoulder, falling asleep.
By the time she had awoken it was late in the afternoon, Azuka was not by her side. Ichina gets up and dusts off the dirt from her body. "Azuka where are you!" Ichina actively looks for him all over the general area. "I'm right here, calm down." Azuka walks up to Ichina with a bag full of food. Ichina focuses on the bag of food, "Where did you get that?" Azuka smiles, sitting down, opening the bag. He reaches into it and hands Ichina a piece of bread, "I stole this, it was a lot easier than when I was back in town, I'm like a mouse to these guys. It's a lot easier to hide."
She slaps the bread out of Azuka's hand, "What the hell Ichina! Did you just not like that one? Give me a second." Azuka reaches his hand back into the bag, he pulls out a larger piece of bread and hands it to Ichina. She once again slaps the bread out of his hand. "Alright there! I'm just trying to be nice and just give you some fucking bread, but I guess since you are Princess~ you can't eat peasant bread?"
Azuka closes the bag, grabbing the two bread from the dirt ground. He gets up from the ground, "Azuka you should stop stealing, what if someone goes hungry because you stole that bread." Azuka stays silent, Ichina sighs and starts walking toward the mountain, Azuka follows after her, eating the dirty bread as he goes along. "What if I go hungry, by not stealing it, what am I going to do then," Azuka says with bread stuffed in his mouth. "Disgusting can you not eat with food in your mouth," Ichina says, "It doesn't matter anyway, you are hurting the economy by stealing."
Azuka swallows his bread, "Fuck the economy, I'm trying to eat." Ichina sighs, "How are you so disgusting and stupid. Did your parents not raise you?" Azuka wipes off the bread pieces on his mouth, "Actually, I don't know my parents." Ichina and Azuka do not say another word to each other, as they continued up the mountain and down to the docks.
