Chapitre 36: Lost because of a needle

Niro put his hand on his head at the moment he gained consciousness. He sat up straight but could not open his eyes yet out of dizziness. The scenes from the garden all came into his head and remembered that he passed out in front of the people inside.

"That was embarrassing..."

"Indeed it was."

He removed his hands from covering his face and turned to the voice, "Ah!" he exclaimed as he saw Sherin all of the sudden by the side of the bed he was in. "Sherin." he called out, it will be bad for his heart if her partner always startles him.

Sherin was leaning on a chair with her arms crossed and her feet were up on Niro's bed, looking down and deep in her thoughts. Niro noticed that she was in a bad mood and the room was full of gloom. "Uh, w-were you here for a long time?" he asked, breaking the silence. 

'Why are you stuttering, Niro?' he asked himself and closed his eyes tight and looked away slowly in shame.

"I brought you here after we saw you on the ground." Sherin said. 

Caliber was going to help her carry Niro but he could not leave Charles in there for some reason.

"I apologize for the trouble, all of a sudden I was having a headache and became dizzy. I was fine when we were in Antares." he stated and was perplexed by why he felt that way, "I am not sick." he added.

"You are not sick." Sherin claimed and she raised his lowered gaze to meet his eyes.

From the crossed arms, she grabbed the pocket that was tied to her belt and separated her arms from each other. She threw it to him, surprised, he caught it with his natural reflexes.

Curious as to what Sherin threw, he removed the tie and opened it. Inside the small bag was a needle. "Why are you giving me a needle? How is this a get-well-soon gift?" he asked and Sherin glared at him.

"Should I make you swallow that get-well-soon gift?" 

"I am kidding, forgive me."

Sherin dropped her gaze to the needle in his palm, "That needle is the reason why you lost your consciousness." she stated and Niro pinched it and put the needle close to his face to observe it.

"I had it cleaned after checking, so you would not see anything right now." Sherin said as she saw Niro looking at the needle, all confused.

"You have been drugged without noticing."

Niro let out a laugh after hearing what she said, "There is no way I would be drugged without me noticing. My eyes are faster than the changing of your moods." he said. 'Or, well, maybe you change mood faster.' he added inside his mind.

Sherin closed his eyes with a little bit of frustration, then pointed at the needle he was holding, "Someone threw a needle to your body, with the tip of the needle filled with a dose of tranquilizer solution." she stated and Niro went silent.

"Alec was the one who did it, did he not?" Niro asked. They both remembered the fight that happened. "But when? How come I had not noticed?" he lowered his gaze to the needle in confusion. He could have sworn he had not seen it.

Blocking, Dodging, the two of them were too fast. When was the time that Alec put the needle? Sherin and Niro both raised their heads as they finally had an idea. It was before Sherin laughed at Niro, saying that he had gotten old.

"When I turned around." Niro said.

"You did not turn around, he twisted you." Sherin pointed out and Niro wanted to roll his eyes, 'It is the same anyways.' he said in his mind, a bit bitter of remembering his loss.

Turns out they both have the thoughts, Alec twisted Niro and kicked him. While kicking him he already got a needle and flicked it towards Niro. That was where the male Canopus aide started to not feel well.

"It was a good thing that it did not fully go inside your body. You could have died." Sherin said with a serious expression.

That was one that has been on her mind, did Alec give him a needle considering that it would not go through the clothes, or did he really want to kill Niro? 'Either of the two is possible.' she thought.

Alec is not stupid enough to kill the aide of another kingdom's prince, with all people knowing that he was the one who Niro last fought with. He is smart so he in probability, considered that it would not go through.

But Sherin could feel the monster inside him. He was holding back. So it was also likely that he would not care even if the needle killed Niro.

It takes a monster to know another monster.

Niro looked around, realizing that he had not seen another figure anywhere around the room, "Where is His Highness? He did not come with you?" he asked.

"He stayed." Sherin muttered. "For some reason that I do not know, he looked like he did not want to leave that place." she added and caused her to think again. Many mysteries came her way today, it was confusing yet she wants to figure it all out.

Niro avoided any eye contact, 'Well, of course he would stay. His Highness Charles is in there...' he wanted to say it, but he knows that his prince would kill him if he did.

Sherin knows that Niro has the answers to any of her questions, but where is the fun in that?

She would like to know it by herself. It is a challenge that she would like to take on.

Niro could not help but to stare at her, he squinted his eyes as he cannot understand what kind of expression she has on his face. Sherin looked back at him, startling him.

Sherin smiled sweetly at him and the man started to feel a bit of sweat running down his forehead. 'What kind of smile is that...' 

Sherin that was leaning on the chair, sat up straight without breaking her gaze with Niro. Without her eyes moving away, she put her hand on his thigh but bit by bit it was starting to be squeezed. "I will find out everything, soon."

The grip was hurting Niro but he hid it with an awkward smile, "O-oh, I believe you will, ha..ha..."

Sherin sat back down and shut her eyes tight. 'Servant...'

~~~~~~~~~~

"Niro!" Caliber exclaimed and rushed to where he was. "What happened to him?" he asked and turned to Sherin who was bending down on one knee to check Niro.

She put a finger near the holes of his nose and he was breathing just fine. She put her hand on his forehead and used the back of her hand to touch his cheeks. "He does not seem to be sick." Sherin said to the prince.

Caliber furrowed his brows, "Then what caused him to be in this state?"

"I am not sure, I will investigate this matter. For now, I shall take him to his room." she said and was about to carry Niro.

Sherin might be a knight, but she is still a woman. "I will help you. Go get the other arm." the prince said.

They helped Niro up, with both of his arms around their necks. Sherin giggled, "I can already imagine Niro's reaction once he finds out that you were troubled to bring him to his room." she said and Caliber smiled.

After a few steps, something he did not like was caught from the corner of his eyes. Chance looked really worried over Alec after taking pity for Niro. Even from afar he could hear Chance asking 'Were you also hurt? Why did you even fight?' and so on.

The Canopus Prince was contemplating whether he should stay or help Niro. He was having a hard time making a decision but while he was staring at them, Sherin was also staring at the prince.

She was curious about why he was hesitating, but she wants to bring Niro to the palace as soon as possible. "Your Highness." she called out.

Caliber looked at his aide, "You do not have to worry, I can bring him back by myself." Sherin said, noticing that he really wanted to stay.

The prince smiled, a bit feeling bad for not being able to help them. But a part of him really wants to stay. "Thank you, Sherin." he said with a sincere tone.

Sherin just sighed and smiled. She grabbed Niro's other arm and also put it around her neck. She carried him in a piggyback. "Which one of us is the girl here?" she said in a low voice in which only she can hear. She shook her head before running outside to put him in the horse.

Caliber stared at the two before approaching them.

Chance was going to put his hand on Alec's face to check if there is something wrong but Caliber grabbed it and put it on his.

Startled, Chance stared at him wondering why he suddenly put his hand on his face, "Caliber, are you okay?"

"No." Caliber immediately answered. "No, I am not."

Chapitre 37: Amused by different thoughts

"No, I am not." 

The two who were at the side, Tristan and Louis looked at each other before looking back at the three people in front of them.

'Did brother forget that we are still here?' the young prince thought and could not hide the grimace that showed on his face.

Perhaps Caliber did that on purpose to make Alec stare at them, but Alec did not look like he was bothered by it, he glanced at Tristan whose eyebrows were furrowed while staring at the two princes.

He was observing the knight of how he would interpret the scene, it would cause Chance big trouble if he reported it to King Cadell. 

"Your Highness," Tristan muttered, referring to the little Canopus prince, while not putting his gaze away from the two. "Your brother..." his forehead creased even more and squinted his eyes, thinking hard.

Louis waited for the knight to continue his words, but he has an idea of what he was thinking about. 'What would a knight of Antares think about this sight?' he thought and looked at the two who were holding their faces. 'Chance, are you not in danger?' 

As Tristan squinted, Louis and Alec stared at him to see his reaction. His lips parted and he turned to the prince to continue what he was going to ask.

"...is your brother sick?" 

Alec shut his eyes and averted his gaze back to a straight direction, realizing that there was nothing to worry about. Louis looked at him with a bored expression and let out an audible sigh.

'What an idiot.' they both thought.

Louis ignored the question and Tristan scratched his head, confused. 'Is he making His Highness, Charles, check his temperature?' he thought and looked up with his fingers on his chin. 'Ah, I have no idea anymore, this task of His Majesty is confusing.'

'It is not confusing, you are just stupid.' Louis said inside his mind when he predicted what Tristan was obviously thinking about. 

Meanwhile, Chance was staring at Caliber in awe, as his hand was placed on his cheek, 'Oh my god, my hand is sweating. It'll make his cheeks wet.' he said inside his head in panic.

'Damn my sweaty hands!' he yelled internally, very embarrassed.

'What does he mean he's not okay? From what I know, he wasn't involved in the fight.' Chance thought. He was trying to pull his hand but it looked as if he did not do anything because his hand did not even move away from Caliber's cheek.

He could not think of a reason why Caliber was acting this way but then he thought of something. 'Is he not okay because of the problem he mentioned?' he thought. Chance knew that it was no lie, he could see his expression clearly earlier and he knows that it is indeed troubling him.

"If only you could tell me..." he whispered while staring at the man who was holding his hand. 

"Tell you what?"

Chance gulped when he realized that he said it aloud instead of thinking. "It is nothing." he said looking away, 'If only you could tell me what your problem was...' he continued inside his mind.

The face that he made back in the room was something he has never seen before. What has caused him to be so troubled to make that kind of dejected face? For some reason, it made him curious as to what his problem was about.

'Why do I need to know anyway?'

Caliber was pleased to see that Chance was not resisting or taking his hand away from him. He was somehow expecting to be kicked or something. But then he knows that Charles has changed, still, maybe he did not change at all. Maybe they have been starting to get close.

Caliber who was still busy thinking, surprised when he felt another hand on his face. The other three who were around also looked. 

He raised his head, who was looking down as he thought and saw Chance looking at him with a worried face.

"Caliber," 

Chance called him and took a step forward that got Caliber in a daze, he moved his two thumbs on his face, "I know you are not all right and something is troubling you." 

"By the time that you finally want to tell me," He removed his hand on his face and the other grabbed Caliber's hand that it was holding. He put his hand down and looked up to him, "I am here."

The Canopus prince had the sudden urge to hug him but he knows he will be bothered by it since there are other people. 'If it was not for that girl, I would not be this troubled.' he thought. He smiled, "I apologize for making you worry." 

Chance just smiled back but somehow, he was not happy. Even he does not know why.

"Charles." Alec muttered behind him.

He grabbed Chance and moved him a bit backwards, away from Caliber. Caliber looked at Alec seriously, thinking that he was interrupting them. The knight took a step forward, making Chance be behind him.

As he got near Caliber, he looked at him blankly and whispered, "Best if you do not get close too often." it was a warning, but Caliber, of course, has no idea what kind of warning it was.

He took it like Alec was being possessive over his master, which was an idea he did not like.

Caliber remembered the times where Chance would call his knight by name, they were closer than a normal Master-Servant relationship. 'Could they really have...' he could not continue his thoughts as he would not like it.

Alec was observing the Canopus prince's face and noticed the change of expression. "I do not know what you are thinking about, but stay away for now." he said in a serious tone.

"This is for the sake of our prince." he said at the end in a low voice and turned around.

The knight touched Chance's back as a sign that they should return to the palace. 

"Oh," muttered Chance. He turned and bowed to the little prince, "I shall do my duties starting tomorrow. I shall take my leave for now, Cole." he said as a goodbye. 

Louis did not react badly to it, he just stood there and nodded, agreeing to make his personal servant leave. Normally, the master would be the one to decide when to dismiss the servant but the servant himself just said that he would be going and the master just agreed.

While walking towards the little door to exit the little prince's place, Chance looked back and saw Caliber looking at him. 'I hope his problem will get solved soon.' he thought, but of course, it would be better if he solved it with his help. Unfortunately, it looks like he would not tell him.

The two left and Tristan suddenly remembered that he should come with them. He waved at the young prince but Louis did not wave back. The three of them left to come back to the palace.

'For the sake of our prince? What does that mean?' he asked, a bit frustrated that he has no idea what he was trying to say. 

Louis was staring at his brother, amused by the expression he was making. He just kept quiet to continue picking up things in secret. What more interesting things could possibly happen, he thought. His side of Leonidas is showing as he continues to be amused.

Caliber tried to shake off his thoughts, he was not like it before, how could he suspect the two to have a relationship of more than master-servant. 'But then, it is possible.' he thought again.

Is it suspicion or jealousy? It may be both.

A misunderstanding, Alec did that for a different reason. Though Caliber thought that it was because Alec likes Chance. That he wants him to stay away from his master because they have something more than a normal relationship that a prince and a knight has. 

While Chance was feeling down because he wanted to know the problem that Caliber was having after he came back from Antares. It was all right for him because he could wait until Caliber could tell him what it was. 

But still, he was hoping that he could help Caliber.

The only ones who know what Caliber was trying to do was the highest servants of Canopus, the aides of royalty, Sherin and Niro.

Although the spider and the hawk knew that he was searching for a girl, they also do not know who it was. Especially Niro who was curious about the identity of the girl he was looking for, if only they were not interrupted by those guys in Antares, he could have known because it looked like Caliber was going to tell them.

All of them have different thoughts inside their mind.

In the top of one of the towers of the Canopus palace, where the little prince's place can be seen. A girl taking a bite of her bread was sitting on the edge. With her legs hanging down, playing with it by moving her feet up and down.

She giggled and looked down at them with a smile. "They are trying so hard, how cute."

She rested her chin on his palm, having fun watching them.

"I will be enjoying this for a while."
