"Rhaall, We need to talk." Asch pushed the through door, The General trailed behind him. "It's about the war and a recent attack- oh...Evening, Lady Bish." Prince Asch crossed his arms, does she have to be everywhere? It was fine at first but then...
"Asch! Me and my wife were talking about important things!" Rhal almost yelled back, sibling behavior. "Lady Bish important? Please." Pierce rolled his eyes with a scoff which caused Asch to side eye him.
"Hm, is that so, General Pierce?" Lady Bish glared at him and he glared back. The tension was high in the room, The unspoken rule being to not have lady Bish and General Pierce in the same room. After all, They HATE each other. Why? No one knows. "hm is that so, Lady Bish?" Pierce mocked back, what the fuck was happening. "That didn't even make sense, General." Lady bish scowled and tried to keep her smile up, it's obvious he was getting to her. "It's your own damn words." Pierce said with a frown. "Alright then, General Pierce...did you get a new piercing lately?" Lady bish subtly mocked his name. "Lady bish, you're a bitch-"

Red and Red, leaning against a pole as they watched knights fight. "One day, I'm going to fight like the knights." Pierce smiled slightly as he stared at the sparring knights with awe. "You're lucky, Percy. My dad won't let me fight until I'm older while you get to train!" Rhal made an exaggerated hand gesture, raising his arms high and his tone rising as he spoke. "By the time I do get to learn you'll be better than me-!...Atleast im taller." Pierce looked at Rhal, "my names Pierce." He spoke softly but sternly, looking away and bringing his knees to his chest.
"So what? Ever heard of nicknames, PERCY?" rhal bonked Pierce on the head softly, he laughed teasingly before looking back at the knights. "Ow-?! What was that for?! Stop calling me Percy- how'd you even get that out of Pierce, Prince Rhal-?!" Pierce slightly shouted at the white horned Prince. "I have an idea! You should teach me to fight so we can learn together!" Rhal stood up and smiled, a big giant excited smile. One that made Pierce nervous. "...I could get in trouble though...My dad said I shouldn't show anyone my skills or whatever..." Pierce looked away, his red horns glowing a somber light.
"Ugh, that's so boring-!" Rhal huffed and crossed his arms looking away, now annoyed and mad.
Pierce just rolled his eyes and stood up again, "c'mon, Prince Rhal...I heard the kitchen are making sweets around this time of day-" pierce started, Already conjuring up a plan. "How do you know that?" Rhal turned to grab Pierce's hand. "Huh? Oh, I overheard the kitchen schedule this morning...wanna-" pierce smiled but before he could finish, Rhal said the final word for him, "steal some?! Obviously! Let's go!"

Chapter Text
He was walking down the forest path, the memory plagued his mind. When had he and Rhal fell out? When had his father become so ignorant? When had everyone stopped seeing him?
It didn't make sense. Just a week ago, he was talking with Rhal like always. 2 weeks ago his father was training with him. And yesterday, He was talking to people. Everyone's ignoring him. Their not even looking at him. He can't figure out why.
But he hates it.
After a while of walking, He came across a pond. Maybe a lake? No, too small. The water wasn't boiling. Which was odd. The water under the kingdoms's land always boiled. So did the rivers that seeped through the land above it.
He looked down, His reflection clear. Crystal clear. The waters untouched. Clean. Much like the diamond bracelet his father treasured. "Diamond..."
he remembered something his mother told him before she disappeared. "I wished for a girl, I would've named her diamond...when I had you...I would've named you Sashitōsu, except your father begged to have you a 'normal' name..."
Sashi...that would've been a nice name. He hasn't a clue what it means but it felt familiar enough for him to like it.
"..."
He stared quietly at the water before kneeling down and tapping the pristine surface. It did as water does, the soothing beauty of the pong captivated him in a way he couldn't quite understand.
Perhaps, divine intervention or spiritual connection was what he felt. He couldn't figure it out. He felt as if he could drown in it...
Upon looking closer, he could make out small faces and a soft barely audible sound from the pond. Screaming. Pleading. It was horrifying. It was the sound of multiple people. Hundreds maybe.
Terrifyingly beautiful.
And he let his hand sink in. It felt at peace, his soul. Though he couldn't help but notice the yelling was getting louder until he felt a pair- no, Multiple eyes surrounding him with two gentle hands on his shoulder.
He ripped his hand from the water, turned around as quick as he could and a woman sat behind him. He could barely make out her features...but she was gently beautiful. Gorgeous in a way he couldn't describe with words or justice.
A woman made of liquid water, something divine or spiritual about her. "A son of water...A son of strength...a calm before calamity..." She gently smiled after her words were spoken with patience and an underlying sense of chaos.
When he blinked, she was gone. He turned back to the water and something was different. His horns no longer the blood red they were before, his eyes no longer like his father's. Blue. Ombre blue horns that seem a bit bigger than before and teal blue eyes that could be matched to the pond laid before him.
Chapter 4: Like him
Summary:
Pierce x Rhal (angst??)
Chapter Text
The time to choose a queen for Prince Rhal had arrived sooner than expected.
He was still upset about HIS general leaving him to go be a guard for his brother. Pierce was HIS general first. He was supposed to stay by his side.
Rhal stood next to his father as he looked through the portraits and letters from other kingdoms and houses. They were all uninteresting.
He just couldn't stop thinking of his General returning to his side.
Until his father demanded he paid attention, one woman caught his eye. She wasn't JUST like him. But she was close enough. Cyan blue eyes and a face that seemed unfazed. She wasn't tan or cherry dark hair or dark blue eyed. But she was as close to Pierce as Rhal could tell.
She had blonde hair, light skin, and cyan eyes. She was beautiful. Her eyes held a similar calm to the way Pierce's did. Her posture itself was calm and seemingly almost uncaring.
Rhal wanted her.
Pierce had left his side to guard his brother. But she was close enough to fill it...on his other side. Because the right side would only belong to his second in command ever.
Her name was Lady bish. That was interesting. The letter was sent by her brother and not her. Also interesting.
He already decided anyways. Not worth reading it.
"Father, I want to marry Lady Bish."
