Rose garden

[Kush n Swisha]

A large area in Falwin made especially for the king. It is filled with many different flowers, but mostly different colored rose bushes. In the middle of the area is a fountain with the statue of Aphrodite holding an urn.  

[Kush n Swisha]

Elizabeth was very lost. Sure the gaurd had freed her, but he hadn't informed her of where the exit was. She sighed and sat on the edge of the fountain. She looked up at the figure of Aphrodite and raised an eyebrow. Well that was a surprise. She would have thought the place to be filled with dark statues of Ares. She smiled and basked in the warm sunlight. Oh how she missed the warmth! Seeing as how no one was around the princess began to sing.

 

[Kush n Swisha]

Elizabeth jumped up with a start and fell into the cold water of the fountain. The princess had fallen asleep and woke up because a bird had perched on her shoulder. She sat up and spit some water out of her mouth. Her long black bangs clung to her forehead. She pulled herself out of the fountain and onto the marbled walk path. She was oddly surprised that Eric hadn't noticed her absense yet. Maybe it was luck?

Emiya had walked from the Orion Fields to the Falwin Kingdom. He ended up in the rose garden because of his memory from when he came here with the King of Orion. "This place hasn't changed a bit..." He said while walking more deeper into the garden, he then noticed Elizabeth. He ran over to here and smiled. "My my, went for a swim eh? Here, I have a towel and use my cloak." He said while smiling to lighten the mood and handing her a towel and his cloak.  

[Kush n Swisha]

Elizbeth thankfully took the towel and looked at Emiya shocked. "What are you doing here? Why are you in enemy territory? You should head back to Orion right this instant!" The young princess scolded with a frown upon her face. She looked around to see no sign of Eric, which was still an odd surprise to her.

 

[AzurePickle]

Emiya smiled and chuckled. "I am in enemy territory, but that doesn't mean I have a few friends in the enemy lines to help me. Well, you see, I have come to take everyone back home with me. I miss you guys you know." He said while putting his coat over Elizabeth.  

[Boundary Challenged]

Two deep, powerful voices were heard from not very far away.
"Heheh. They won't know what hit them... This plan is foolproof!!"
"Don't get too full of yourself, you idiot. We're going to send the invasion first thing tomorrow, agreed?"
"Perfect."  

[Kush n Swisha]

Elizabeth looked to where the two voices were heard and looked at Emiya. She handed him his coat back and hid among the rose bushes. She peacked through the leaves and found Eric with the war god Ares. Anger boiled up inside of her. She waited quietly to pounce, hoping that Emiya would stay silent aswell.

 

[AzurePickle]

Emiya stood still as well and watched the god and man talk. "My god, this is crazy. This isn't good." He said in his mind. He had remained calm as always and analyzed the situation.  

[Boundary Challenged]

Eric started rubbing hand over hand, laughing meniacally.

Ares raised an eyebrow at him. "Eric, this king stuff is getting to your head."

Eric grinned at Ares. "How could it not?! We're sending over 70,000 damned troops to Orion!!" Eric continued to laugh. "All thanks to you, Ares."  

[Kush n Swisha]

Elizabeth couldn't hold it in much longer. "Oh no you're not" She hissed while jumping out of the bushes and onto Eric's back. She kicked at his side and punched his head....Probably not the smartest thing she could have done.

 

[Boundary Challenged]

Ares growled, and tried to pick Elizabeth up, his arm grown by four times it's normal size. "Pitiful mortal..."  

[Kush n Swisha]

Elizabeth looked up at Ares with large scared eyes and did the unthinkable. She got off of Eric's back and hugged him tightly for protection. It wasn't her fault though....Ares scared the living nightmares out of her.

 

[AzurePickle]

Emiya sighed and walked out grabbing Elizabeth and pulling her away from Eric. "Now now. Eric you have grown a lot since i last saw you. King eh?" He said with a grin while still restraining Elizabeth.  

[Boundary Challenged]

Eric pointed his sword at Emiya's nose. "Better than you could ever get, Emiya. I knew I was always better," he said, his grin exposing a shart tooth protruding over his bottom lip. "I have the troops. I have the respect. I have the alliance of Ares himself."

Ares' sword appeared in a black vortex, and he slung it over his shoulder. "We're not here to fight with them, Eric."
