The Misguided Adventures of Rapunzle

Part Four

Duo was up early because Trowa had come to check up on them and give them food. After Trowa had gone Duo was making some eggs and bacon for breakfast. Hilde was stirring in her bed and Duo knew she would be up soon. He grabbed two plates and started to put food on them.

Hilde woke up and saw the pan and two plates floating in the air.He looked over to where Hilde was and she was sitting right next to him. "Hey, beautiful. Do you want some breakfast," he asked.

"Uh…I thought I was dreaming yesterday and now I know I am definitely crazy," she sighed.

"Don't worry babe. You're not going crazy. Here eat because you will need your strength," he chuckled again as he gave her the plate full of eggs and toast.

She then thinks to herself as she takes the plate of food, "I want to know what that voice is. I feel compelled to start to feel. If he says I'm not crazy. I must know who he is." "When can I see you," she asked.

"I'm not sure when would be a good time. I know I will have to show you who I am soon." "I hope that she will be able to forgive me for leaving her and her sister. I love her," Duo says to himself.

She nodded her thanks and takes the plate. Duo took both plates after they both finished and said, "I'm going to go wash these and I'll be back in a few minutes."

Hilde nodded. She sighed, "That voice is so calming. It is like it knows me so well. When I'm getting mad he just calms me down. I could fall for a guy that has a voice like that. I hope he shows who he is soon." She smiles when she tries to imagine of what that voice might look like.

Just then she hears a sound. She jumps up and runs towards the direction the sound, with her staff in hand.

At the creek Duo felt that something was very wrong and left all dishes there. He went into camp and saw that she was gone. He started to call her name. He heard nothing then he saw something coming into camp. He sighed; it was Hilde grumbling all the way back. "What happened," he asked.

"Nothing, I heard something in the woods and went to go investigate. I thought I saw someone and I started to go after that person but I lost him or her," she grumbled.

He sighed, "It looks like we are gonna have to be more careful. She knows where you are."

"I don't care what she knows. I am going to get my sister's and mine home back and that's all there is to it," she griped.

"I understand. I want to help you take away that bitch's thrown. It is yours and rightfully so. I also have seen how she treats the people that work on this land. They are in trouble with no money and food. They are starving," he replied.

"I don't need help from you. I know what is going on and when I get the land back the people will know no more famine. I still don't think your even real," she muttered as she stormed off.

Duo moaned to himself, "Why is she so stubborn?"

And with that he went to the river grabbed the dishes and started to follow her.

Back at Zechs' Castle

Zechs and Lu were in the dining area alone. Zechs went up to and took her and asked, "Lu will you accompany me in dinner tonight?"

"Yes, I will," Lu, replied.

Back at the Romafeller Castle

"I see," Dorothy said as she looked over the note that she just received from Ryan.

Later that afternoon

Hilde was enjoying herself. The voice kept talking to her like she was his best friend. Only a few people knew her child-hood nick name and only Mathew Maxwell and her sister were the ones that were still alive. She always believed he was alive but he left her. She missed him and her father so.

"Aren't we getting close to the Schbeiker apple orchard," Duo asked.

"Um…yea we are. How did ya know that," she asked dumbfounded.

He replies, "Well, let's just say I use to play here with my two best friends as our parents went and picked apples."

"It has to be Mathew. His mom and our mom would come out here with us and we would play. It just has to be him," she thought to herself.

"I am giving her some hints of who I am but I wonder if she does know and not saying or if she doesn't know at all. I hope she didn't forget me," Duo thought to himself.

As they approached their old hang out Hilde started to run towards the tree that she once climbed and also fell so many times before. She touched the tree so gently and reliving the last time she was here. Very cautiously Duo moved towards her. He also thinking of the last time he was here with her. "What's wrong Hilde," he asked.

"Nothing, nothing at all. Just some memories that's all," she replied.

Duo smiled as he said, "You are lying. It is something. You and your friend always played at this tree and you always fell someway or another. Your father would get mad because you were hurt."

Hilde smiled at that comment. It was true about her father being so concern when she was climbing trees. She sighed, "It doesn't matter now."

"Oh, it does, Hilde, it does," he replied.

Just then a few soldiers came up to them but only seeing Hilde. As they grew closer the soldiers took out their swords and sneered, "What are you doing here, surf?"

"I am no surf, come I can take you all," Hilde said with confidence as she took a defensive stance.

The soldiers started to come closer until someone interrupted them. "Stop, right there. I will take of this riff raff," the voice said. As the soldiers moved to the side and bowed to who was coming and Hilde recognized her immediately.

"Dorothy," Hilde said in a disgusted tone.

"I want you gone, out of here. You do not belong to be in the royal orchard," Dorothy said.

"It use to be for anyone not just for the royal family or have you forgotten," retorted.

Dorothy smiled at that comment. "I haven't forgotten what use to be 13 years ago but things have changed. You must now here my wrath."

She bursts out laughing, "You have gotten to be kidding me."

Dorothy walks over as she does this Hilde's body started to glow. She stopped knowing full well what was going on. "I will have to take care of you later," she says as she disappears.

"Damn, I hate it when she does her disappearing trick," Hilde murmurs.

The Romafeller Castle

Dorothy was mad that Hilde could have a protection spell on her. There was only one way to get her.

"Guards," Dorothy yelled.

The guards came and she told them to go look for Hilde. "She is very dangerous and I would like you to bring her, here, alive," she replied. All the guards left and went in search of Hilde.

In the forest close to sunset

"You know she will try to take care of you," Duo said as they were walking behind her.

"I know damn well she is going to come after me but I will not let that happen. I will help revitalize what she destroyed the land and the peoples' lives that my family swore to take care of," Hilde replied.

"Yea, when your family was in charge no one was considered a surf but she…" Duo said but stopped as heard something rustling in the bushes. "Hilde, stop," he whispered.

"Huh," she was all she could say as Dorothy's men came running from the bushes they were hiding in. She took her defensive stance. The first soldier that came up to her swung his sword. She ducked and hit him in the private area. The next few men were on her like leaves on trees. She couldn't get control of the fight. Just then every soldier was off of her and she felt herself being pulled.

Back at Zechs' Castle

Noin went down to the dinning area for dinner with Zechs. "I wonder why he wants to have dinner with just me," Noin wonders as she enters the dinning area.

"Noin, I'm so glad you came here tonight. I have something very important to ask you," Zechs stated. Then before giving Noin a chance to speak he said, "Let's eat."

She smiled and nodded her head.

During dinner they both had a good time but Zechs sensed something was wrong and also he didn't say what he needed to say. "What's wrong, Princess Noin," he asked.

She smiled and replied, "Nothing except I am worried about my sister and Duo. I feel that something is wrong. I could always sense when something is happening to her. Whether it is a happy thing or a something terrible."

"Don't worry she is in good hands. Duo won't let anything happen to her. Which comes to the real reason I asked for you to join me with out my friends. I wanted to ask for your hand, will you be my wife, Princess," he smiled.

"Yes, but you need my sister's permission first. You have my answer. Wait until she returns and ask her. She is my only blood relative left she needs to know.

"Yes of course, Princess," he smiled.

Somewhere in the woods

Around dark they finally stopped. "Here is a cabin. I know no one lives here but there is a bed that you can use. None of the soldiers were able to follow us," Duo said as he opened the door for her and let her in. Hilde walked right in and sat down on the bed as he closed the door. "Hilde, I think I should show you who I am," he began. He took off his magical cape and revealed himself. "Hilde, my name is Duo Maxwell, but you know me as Math…" he started.

"Mathew Maxwell," she beamed. She was overjoyed to see her long time friend but at the same time she was mad of him leaving her and her sister when they needed him. He nodded. He could see in her eyes that it was a mixture of joy, love, and anger. She ran up to him and hugged him. She wanted to hug her childhood best friend. "I can't believe it is really you," she said as she stepped back. She smiled and then she pulled her fist back and punched him. "The hug was for my joy to see you again and the punch was for leaving. Never leave my sister and me again. That witch almost killed us but instead she tortured us for 13 years," she said as her smile never left. "Here you are as healthy as ever, not that you should care how we were treated," she sneered but with a smile.

"O.K. I must say I do deserve that one. I am here now. I tried to go back to the castle about seven years ago and I wasn't able to go in freely when I told the guards who I was and they didn't know who you or your sister were either. I just thought that she really did hurt you both and you were dead," he said solemnly.

Hilde looked him and sighed. He did really try to come back but was thrown out just like her sister her. "Mathew, it is O.K. I don't hate you just mad that's all," she smiled.

He looked up and saw her smile. His head just swarmed with a feeling he hadn't felt before. He thought to himself, "Should I tell her how I feel or just tell her when we get everything back to normal." He walked up to her and stood as close he could to her and said, "Hilde, I think…I love you more than a friend." He leaned up and kissed her.
