BOOOOOMMM
In the vast quite universe scattered rocks of the freshly blown planet float around..
"BWAHAHA, it's a shame I couldn't bring my Lord back this time."
"But it's not the end, our lord must return back and rule the worlds once again, and what better way it could be if not without that irritating fly"
"Good-bye young lord, although I never said it before but I had loved you very much."
-Love as in hate when looked by a kaloo's point of view.
Happily Zorakh floats around the meteorites thinking he'd succeeded in his last ditch effort, however he had yet to realize how foolish his thoughts were.
"Then I'd like to give you another chance to say that.. Zorakh."
Switching from his joyous look zorakh turns back angrily to where the sound came from.
"W-what the.."
"I told you I'll never lose to anyone."
The prince had survived, but he wasn't the lone survivor, his royal knights Kano and Mano accompanied by all the soldiers that arrived on the scene, and even the villagers had all been evacuated before the planet had been blown.
Among the millions of shiny stars, right besides the clashing meteorites, the survivors float in some bubbles composed of shiny light.
"I-impossible.. I didn't realize that young lord could have so many surprise techniques one after the other."
"But oh well fine with me, even if you saved these people, I destroyed their world. Without that world these villagers are equally as good as dead. "
"I wouldn't be sure about that."
Mano brings open a round sphere which looks like a little tenis ball.
Everyone stared at that strange little round thing held by Mano's tiny hands.
"3."
"2."
Before the prince could count "1" a giant sound shouted like there had been a huge blast it ended up covering up his majesty's voice.
Followed by the loud sound, little after little the tiny rocks which float in space started forming together.
Creating medium rocks, then boulders then eventually the entire planet returned as if the destruction was rewinded back, just like in those movies.
Taking back our heroes' floating feets back to the land as the planet been brought back to life.
"Recreation complete"
One after the second, each move of zorakh was encountered by the prince which lead zorakh to just quit and turn himself over as he saw no other choice, he admitted his lost against the Omnipotent prince.
"At-At least let me know how did you encountered my attack, the villagers were supposed to be dead?!" zorakh spoke as the star patrol forces chained him down to restrain him.
"May I be allowed to speak?"
A sudden yet a surprising voice took everyone's attention, the villagers were shocked.
"P-princess Roem? no way!"
"She's.. oh my stars she's alive?"
"How? I thought that monster killed him," a villagers speaks up while pointing his eyes at shaizu, the villagers shuts down in fear soon as he notices the glaring prince.
"I'm just as surprised, I didn't believe I had any hopes to survive but."
*SLAP*
The princess quickly moved over and slaps the prince leaving everyone surprised. Prince's face faces the other direction from the force packed in her heavy hand.
"This was for your mindless actions and the way you shot me."
And then princess's soft pink lips press the boy's cheek. she ends up kissing the prince leaving the villagers surprised even more as they turn red tomatoes out of jealousy.
"And this.. was for saving my life, and my world."
The prince stares at the princess with a slight intimidating yet blushingly face.
"Sacred blaze."
"Huh?" everyone turns shockingly to princess as she mentions the sentence.
Another special ability of his highness here. A tale from back in the day used to tell how an ability called Sacred Blaze can be used only by a royal Cosmalan. Those holy flames that burn the guilty hearts And protect the innocent people. These flames are also known by 'Flames of judgement'.
"So that I think is the reason why the princess survived his highness' attack, of course I knew that." Kano speaks as he places his finger on his lips to wonder.
"And on top of that, she recovered all her defectiveness caused by the ominous aura of the pirates taking her down." Mano joins the chatter as well.
Princess turns her head away swiftly as soon as her eyes meet the prince's fiery eyes, she turns red.
The slight offguard look on prince's face fades with a grin. "Oh, it seems like the princess has fallen for me. Well I don't blame her since I'm so 'Hot.'"
"I-i'm not in l-love with you or a-anything. W-who would c-care about a madman going out c-causing trouble!"
The panicked princess turns away while hiding her cheeks that had turned red from the embarrassment.
"It happens to be a ritual, where someone grants their gratitude toward a person whom they owe." Blushed princess lowers her voice as she slowly speak, attaching both her index fingers together.
"Anyways!"
The princess Kowtows to the prince and cries. Her eyes and nose both drip water as she refuses to lift her head up, she just cries painfully. Leaving the villagers and everyone else too surprise to think what happened?
"W-where's queen Rori? and your honour's family? are they all safe."
The villagers rush to her crying queen, they can't allow her to be down on the ground, The princess then slightly raises her head and whipes her tear.
She nods silently in opposition. "T-they all died, The royal capital was destroyed when the pirates attacked and I.. I couldn't even protect a thing, they.. They're all gone because of me! I am weak I- 'A royalty who can't even protect her people have no rights to live..' I'm a failure, what should I do?!"
The villagers start having a baffled look on their faces. some even start tearing their eyes down from this great shock.
Princess looks at the young prince with a loss in her eyes..
"'What should you do?' that's a skeptical question. Do you realize that nobody knows what the future is going to unfold, why would you believe in someone who's so clueless about something."
"'What should I do' is a question I personally believe a person can ask only his own self, after all, none but oneself is the only controler of their fates, take the first step toward what doesn't change you, but others that make the 'You'."
Afterwards Prince is put to move where zorakh is, where the captives are.
Prince sits near zorakh as he smiles.
"Yo, looks like we're both catching the same ride on the way back. Would you like to spar with me when we hit the slammer?"
Zorakh doesn't respond as he has completely lost. His head moves over leaving the prince to his other side.
"I don't understand.. Why are you protecting these peasants when you're remained an isolation by them for some so called royalty.
"Why did you killed your own father when he only wanted you to be freed and rule out the universe, he only wanted to crush away the pests that are staining this universe. And why did you not kill me? I tried killing you!"
