The prince of another Kingdom?

*One day, at Kaiyou Kingdom, Daniel was getting ready at the ball tonight. Daniel is looking forward to it. he gets to dance with Kake*

Wow. I can't wait to have a ball with Kake tonight.

*He goes to Kake at the garden*

Kake! Huh?

*Suddenly, he saw someone. Another merman. He has a yellow tail and long, orange hair*

Kake: Daniel! You're just in time! I want you to meet my new friend.

Kake... Who is that?

Kake: He doesn't want to say his name, Daniel.

Prince: Yes. You don't need to.

Well, we can still dance at the ball, right?

Kake: Oh, err... Sorry, Daniel, but I'm going with him.

Why? I thought we were friends.

Kake: We are. It's just that this time I'm going with someone else, OK?

But...

Prince: That will do for now, young man.

*Daniel slowly swims away*

Kake: Oh my... Do you think I-

Prince: Not to worry, Kake. He'll be fine.

*Daniel wondered about the prince*

Hmm... This guy. He said I don't need to know his name. And Kake said she's going with him. There's something wrong here. Something isn't right about him. I need to know what.

*He sees the prince swimming away from Kake. Daniel decides to follow him. And without being seen, he hears him*

Prince: Yes... My plan is slowly working. I got Kake's trust. Once I'm at the ball with her, I shall ask her I will talk to her alone. And when I'm alone with Kake, I shall force her into giving up her kingdom to me. Kake will never know about my real plan.

GASP... He's after Kaiyou too.

*He swims away. At the time of the ball, Daniel is alone. He sees Kake with the prince. He sees they're talking*

Prince: Kake, can we talk in private?

Kake: Why?

Prince: We need to talk about something.

*He sees them walking out. He follows them. He sees the door closed and Daniel goes near it. he then hears their voice*

Kake: OK, what do you want to talk about?

Prince: We want to talk about... my goal to rule your kingdom.

Kake: What?

*The prince then grabbed Kake's arms and pinned her on the wall*

Kake: What are you doing?

Prince: Kake... you will be out of your throne and I shall rule your Kingdom.

Kake: Why are you doing this?!

Prince: Ha ha ha. If you do what I demand you to do, no one will get hurt. If you refuse... then you and your kingdom will suffer! Will you listen to my demands, my empress?

*Kake is soon scared. Then, Daniel bust the door*

No! She will not!

Kake: Daniel!

Prince: You!?

Daniel: I KNEW you were evil!

Prince: What are you, err... talking about, young man?

Don't play innocent with me! Does "force her into giving up her kingdom" ring a bell?

Prince: You spied on me?!

That's right!

Prince: Hmph. Very clever indeed, kid. But now I will show you why it's not a good idea to poke other people's business.

*The prince uses lightning on Daniel, but he barely dodged it*

I won't let you!

*Daniel and the prince engaged in battle for Kake. Soon, Daniel emerged victorious*

I... I did it...

Prince: beaten by a merman younger than me...

*Keba and Zen came into the scene*

Zen: What happened?

Keba: I knew this would happen. The prince's desire was to conquer our kingdom.

Kake: Daniel saved me before I have to make up a choice.

Zen: Well, then, "prince", Thanks to Daniel, you are finished.

Prince: Grr...

Keba: Guards!

*Two merguards came in*

Merguard 1: Yes?

Keba: Take him away!

Merguard 2: Yes, your highness.

*Merguards took the prince and took him away*

Kake: Oh, Daniel. I'm sorry for going with him instead of you.

It's OK, Kake.

Kake: There's still time for the ball? Do you want to dance with me?

I love to!

*She locks arms with Daniel and they go back to the ball room. Daniel and Kake danced together*

Keba: Daniel once again saved Kaiyou.

Zen: Now that is a real Merknight to defeat the evil prince.

*Daniel was happy to save the day once again*

I hope I can dance with Kake again next ball.
