Prologue

IndentIt was a lovely day, almost nothing could ruin it. The sounds of the birds outside sounded lovely, the chattering of people were in harmony. But in the metallic wall, hardly anything was normal to the ones outside of it. Behind this metallic wall, lived clean and sterile people. Outside lived muddy, and diseased people. The wall was built to protect the ones behind it from the disease that lived in the face of the mud. While the ones not behind it are infected with the disease, but there is a way around it. A young handsome prince by the name of Ryuu Heartworth, has never gotten sick. He was the eldest son of William, and Beth Heartworth. The king and queen of the lands below. They died when Ryuu turned 16, that was three years ago. His uncle, Brent Kaliway, is now taking care of the young prince.

 

IndentThe Prince behind the wall is Eziektile Gale, who is 17 going on 18. His grandmother, Queen Rosalyn I, and Ryuu's uncle Brent have set up an arranged marriage for the two prince's. Neither one knows the other, or their gender, so a meeting between the two has also been arranged on Eziektile's 18th birthday.

 

Indent"Ryuu, we need to talk," a gruff males voice sounded through to the kitchen. The man looked fair enough, as he stood near the stair way of the large mansion. His hair a clean brown, and brushed back in a fancy way. He also looked as if everything was disgusting to the touch.

 

Indent"Yes, uncle," a tall young man said as he walked out of the kitchen. Hair as black as night, and not so well kept as it hung loosely to his shoulders. The elder man grimace at the look of his nephew, as if it was a soaked dog that has rolled in mud.

 

Indent"You have been-" the black haired male cut in, not caring what the man wanted to say to him.

 

Indent"Arranged to be married. Yes I know, I've seen it happen before with my younger siblings. No need to explain it to me," Ryuu said no caring how angry he made his uncle.

 

Indent"You ungrateful brat," Brent said, and turned away from Ryuu. "There's going to be a-" once again, Brent was cut off from what he was about to say.

 

Indent"A ball for us to meet, I've also known this would happen."

 

Indent"If your so smart, then why is my dinner not yet ready? Or, do you think you've finally been out smarted by the oven? What of-"

 

Indent"It's been ready for a while now. Serve yourself," Ryuu said and walked past his uncle to go to his room. He counted the doors as he went, knowing that if he didn't, he wouldn't know where his own room is. Although his uncle could always know where it is, and something has always went missing if he didn't lock it properly. It would usually be a deer skin blanket, or a note from a friend that has gone missing. Ryuu would later find the blanket in ruins in the trash, with his uncle watching in the distance. Ryuu would usually pick it up and try to mend it as best as he could, although it won't be as good as it had been, but good enough to still keep one warm on cold nights. The note, Ryuu could careless about silly notes, since he always went out to see his friend anyway, and if he didn't see them then they are busy with something else. A villager would tell him anyways, since it was a close community.

 

IndentIt hasn't always been that close, not since before the gathers at night had started to happen. Everyone was always hostile towards everyone else. It was almost sad to see them like that. One day, Ryuu was by the lake watching the water, and started to play his harmonica it was a happy tune that he always played when out of the house. It was the only thing that has kept him going to this day, to play his harmonica, even though he was educated in other instruments as well, he much rather liked the harmonica best of all. Because his mother, and younger brothers gave it to him.

 

IndentHis brothers had come out to get him, and heard the tune he was playing, they were happy to hear such a happy tune and started to dance to it. One of the villagers was curious as to what all that racket was, and seen the prince's dancing in the mud, the villager thought it was silly to do such a thing. But he couldn't resist the sound of the harmonica playing. He wanted to play as well. So grabbing his instrument he went out and played along with the harmonica. Soon others have joined in as well. Of course Ryuu was in his own world when this happened, and didn't even know what he and his brothers have started.

 

IndentRyuu lay in his bed, once he had unlocked his door and walked in, locking it once more. He had started to look at his harmonica, which had earned the name, Magical. Ryuu had heard those sayings around the village, and he took advantaged of them and said that they were true. He said that this harmonica was magical, that it can cure any sadness, make you happy no matter what. And that it created the gatherings. Of course Ryuu only told this to the kids that had asked him about it. The parents allowed for this to happen, because maybe they thought it really was magical, or to just give the kids some creativity, or to believe in something. Something good. Which ever one it was, it brought life back into the village that Ryuu cared dearly for.

 

IndentRyuu stopped looking at it, and started to play a tune. It was a soft lullaby, he remembered how it sounded, since he always played when ever his mother sang. It was her lullaby. He long has forgotten the words to it, but always remembered how it sounded.

 

From time and again. Only peace will be brought.

 

((This is from a sms rp that me and a friend are doing, were so far into the rp now, well maybe not that far, but so far that some of it's been erased from my cell. So doing this from memory, and mostly creativity, since we had to shorten our posts. Much to my dislike, since I like writing long good sized posts of 4+ paragraphs when I rp. It's yaoi based, and it's about two prince's, and their two friends. The rest is a read to find out. So hope you enjoyed and I'll try not to talk to much. Peace))
