City gates

  "Sir, I saw some people and one of them claimed, she was princess velvet" I was talking about the incident that happened last night. I was talking to our guard captain, vel. Who had lost a eye protecting the 2nd princess and because of his failure he was demoted to a captain. He had silver hair and brown eyes and was always dressed light. The captain wanted to know what happened last night, well, I was more sleepy because of my night duty and wanted to go home to my wife and just sleep the day away today. Well, I saw 4 people came near the west gate of the city last night and I couldn't make out any detail because it was night. But, I can't just let in some people because they claimed they were someone without any proof. "SOMEONE IS APPROCHING THE GATE!!!" with that screem we heard a bell. and the captain just stood up and said something to a guard outside his office and went down to the gate and I followed behind. The gate opened and the captain and me and some soilders were waiting there. Some of them holding healberds, some just watching the gates open. And weren't even moving a muscle, Just waiting. The gate opened and the knight commader went out throught the gates first and bowed to the person outside. He was bowing while one of his knees was hittimg the ground and the person infront of him had blond hair, blue eyes and her dress had some tered parts. But you can tell it was a white priestess robe and it matched her perfectly. The captain just said "Welcome back princess velvet" with that every soilder there to defend the gate just, just mimicked the captain. "You may rise vel" she replied. I looked up just to see no expression on her face. The captain stood up and "well, just go back to your duties too gentlemen" she was speaking to us this time. The captain looked behind and nodded to us. Everyone got up to leave and "Not you tho, roy"it seems I'm going to meet my grandmother today in heaven. Sorry, my beloved rose, we got married just a year ago and I'll be leaving you already. I slowly made my way near to the captain and "Who might this be? " "The king of highgar" I gulped. "Oh!" the elf replyed. The elf had silver hair, long ears of the elves and was wearing leather armor. Which was typically worn by archers and like what his armor would say. He was carrying a bow. Well, a bow bigger than him. Death is a Everywhere I looked. Well, this is my last day on earth it seems. Uh..., mondays. "Well, it isn't much. But, can we remove his tongue?" said the man who had brown hair. He was waering what looked like white armour. But, was scratched and damaged on some places. He looked like the typical village boy In his 20s. He had the face of a boy but, also a body of an man. "Are you all really gonna kill this poor man?" Interrupted the dwarf. He was wearing drawen armor. He had a beard, carried a big axe, had a scar on his left cheek. Just by looking at him I could tell he was an experienced warrior. Then the dwarf continued "atleast he needs to pay for all the trouble he caused us yesterday, right?" said looking at me. "I haven't had used my bow in sometime, hmm. Maybe I can use something" then he looked at me "or someone, to see if my skills have dulled" well, atleast I'll meet my gradpa in hell. And finally the princess interfered "knock it off guys" with that everyone just stopped and she turned her head to my side and "I don't want to punish someone for doing thier job" Oh thank god! atleast the princess isn't crazy. "Just let him suffer the consequences of making a lady sleep outside" There goes my last hope. "ok, ok, please just don't kill my subordinate" interfered the captain. "sure, he wasn't the brightest person around, but, atleast he, uh...., he" "wait, captain atleast say something" I was desperate. Ney, in dispair. "Just joking, just joking." the captain looked at the princess and her group "Stop trying to murder the guy before his execution" "wait, what?" Aren't I suprised. "well, if the king hears about this, well..., let's just say the wise king is gonna be the mad king" I gulped. I mean death comes with my job. But, to die dishonored, even your family will be scorned with a execution by the royal family. "We won't say anything, if you agree to something" the princess said to the captain obviously. He was scraching his head and replyed with "Fine, let me hear your demands" "Just don't inform the castle about our arrival" Wait, is something going on here? I mean the princess saying not to inform the castle on something this important. "Let's discuss the details inside my office princess" he said that and called a guard and said to escort the princess and her bodyguards to his office and the 2nd they were out of sight "well, ray. If you ever want to do something like that again. You know, NOT LETTING THE PRINCESS INTO HER OWN CITY. Well, atleast check weather that person is the real deal or not" "Y-yes, sir" "I know you've had a rought day, just remember. Next time it's gonna be your head, Alright" "y-yes" "Go home and take 2 days off." I said my farewells, I left my workplace. Almost like a drunk person went home, slept, woke up the next day. The whole thing must have been a nightmare or something. I mean, me not granting permission to enter, to the princess. Ha! What a joke. I opened the window and saw the house that was aboundened wasn't abounden today. I mean the front door was open, the windows too. I mean the house looked nice. It was kept in good condition and I thought it was for sale or something by the owner and I saw a girl with blond hair, a beautiful face and a nice dress. Well, by my strandreds. Walk outside from the front door. It was the princess from my dreams.
