Ryota jumps from his seat, startling Miyu. She continues to sit on the bed while Ryota paces around her room, "Well, first things first, we need to find out who's going against me."
He looks at Miyu, "Got any ideas?"
Miyu pouts then says, "Definitely not my father, he wants you married to my sister. I believe that some of the weaker Lord's and ladies will because the stronger ones have more of your favor while the smaller ones don't have much. They night want more power so they'll over throw the Nakada bloodline and puts someone else on the throne."
Ryota nods, "That true. So, how are you going to spy on people for me?"
Miyu scrunches up her face a bit, deep in thought. After a few minutes of silence she looks straight at Ryota, "I don't know."
Ryota nods then lifts a finger. His face glows, "I've got an idea."
Miyu leans forward, interested.
"I'll sign you up at school. You can listen in on some of the students conversations or the teachers. Sometimes the Lord's of ladies of the students will come and chat in the lobby, do you can listen in there."
Miyu groans, "Do I have to be there?"
Ryota nods and sits down next to her on the bed. When she doesn't move away, he becomes relaxed and leans towards her, "You'll be fine. You've been able to survive this long, I think you can do it."
Miyu nods and looks off in the distance, "Thank you."
Then she looks straight at the prince in front of her, seeming to glow with power and beauty, "Ryota."
*****
When Miyu said his name very instensely, he almost shivered. He doesn't know why but he feels like he can completely trust the gril in front of him who is a deciever and liar. He nods then walks up to the window. He gives out a few whistles and a large falcon swoops in. It's not brown, but instead a light blue like the sky. It has a piercing gaze and it's looking at something underneath Miyu's bed. Curious, Ryota walks over to the bed but Miyu stops him. He walks back while she looks under the bed. She picks up something that looks like a large cotton ball and looks at Ryota, "This is my guardian."
The ball unrolls itself and reveals a white fox. It yawns, uncurling his long pink tongue. He bounces off of Miyu's hands and onto the floor. Natsu, the blue falcon, flies off of Ryota's shoulder and onto the ground in front of the fox. Natsu bows his head respectfully and the fox nods back. The fox then looks up at Ryota and shows him a grin, "Well, well, isn't it Prince Ryota. Names Arata, the so called king of guardians."
Ryota raises an eyebrow, surprised that the king of guardians is a fluffy white fox. Arata gets up and circles himself around Miyu protectively, "You better not hurt my master or I'll slice that pretty neck of yours, you hear me?"
