Chapter 80: Surrounded
"What are we going to do to get to them?" Eli sighed as she looked at her brother, who had grabbed his luggage from the ship.
While they were figuring out how to get the prince, Nasil's men spotted him and one of them rushed off to the castle, and at the same time, Nessa had finished taking care of the king and was about to leave when the man arrived a short while later and she looked at him as he entered the castle and she followed him to the living room.
"Your highnesses, the prince has arrived," He said and Nessa smiled.
"Don't waste any more time, capture them," The prince's father said.
"As you wish, but the princess has yet to be found; shall we capture them all if we find them?" He inquired.
"Yes, capture them all," He replied, and the prince sighed. The man then left, and Nessa decided to follow him to the harbor.
"Oh no, they know it's him," Mazen said as the men approached the prince who looked at them while clutching his bag and a few more men arrived.
"This isn't looking good for the prince, he won't be able to get out of there, let's go," Mazen said as they carefully got closer to where the prince was, and before the prince could say anything, he noticed Eli hiding and sighed.
The prince realized something was wrong at that moment, and he had no intention of backing down.
"What do you want?" He asked.
"I suggest you come with us quietly," One of the men said as he got approached the young man with a glowing whip in his hand and Mazen sighed.
Eli realized the whip was magical after seeing it and sighed as the prince pulled his sword and Mazen gnashed his teeth, knowing the prince wouldn't be able to make it out with just a sword and he knew they would play dirty.
'I can help but I might cause a lot of problems, but that doesn't matter, lady Nessa told me to protect that and that's exactly what I will do, I will not let her down,' Akio thought as he was about to move when he felt someone tapping on his head.
Akio smiled as he turned around to see Nessa standing behind him.
"Nessa," Eli said and she sighed then peeked at the prince.
"I'll help him, this wolf here will cause quite a bit of destruction if he does," Nessa said, patting Akio on the head and before he bowed.

"Does your brother fight?" Nessa asked.
"Yes, he can," She responded as the men surrounded the prince.
"Can I handle that whip, Miss Notice?" Nessa inquired.
[Yes, you can; the whip is made of wind, and one hit from it will send you flying; yours is different, more evolved.]
"I see, thank you; I'll handle this quickly," Nessa said as she observed what was happening.
"What is the meaning of this?" The prince asked.
'If I were you, I wouldn't ask many questions because if you want to see your father alive, you won't fight back," The man responded, and the prince's eyes shook as he returned his sword to its proper place.
"What happened to my father What did you people do?" As the man was about to hit him with the whip, Nessa jumped in front of him and grabbed the whip, leaving Eli and the others staring at her.
"You," He said and she smiled at him.
"You're messing with the wrong people, idiot," She replied as she pulled the whip out of his hand, spun around, kicking him directly in the stomach, sending him flying, and lifted the whip up in the air, hitting all of the men with it while spinning, knocking them off their horses and to the ground.
The whip worked exactly the way miss Notice said it would.
"Run," Nessa said as she ran off and the prince followed her and before the men could get back up, they were already gone.
"What the hell is going on?" The prince asked while panting as they came to a halt, looked at him as the men began searching the city.
"We are being pursued by our cousin and his father; they have no good intentions for our kingdom or our father; they want to take it all over; the prince and uncle are the ones who poisoned father," Eli responded as her brother stared at her, his eyes shaking.
"Are you serious right now?" He asked, and Nessa patted his shoulder before he looked at her.
"Come on, let's get back to the inn, it's not safe out here, especially with you guys, they won't stop until they find you and get rid of you," Nessa said as she walked away, and Eli grabbed her brother's hand as they followed Nessa back to the inn.
When they returned to the inn, Nessa led them to her room, where they all sat.
"So, who are these three people, and what exactly is going on? What did I miss?" The prince inquired.
"We were simply betrayed, our cousin and his father poisoned ours, he has been here ever since we left, they are destroying what our father loves, also because of her, Nessa our father is getting better and they don't know that, she risked herself to help our father and now she is doing this for us, we need to get them out of our kingdom," Eli replied, and her brother sighed.
"Damn it, I never expected this to happen, not to us," He said and Nessa glanced at him.
"It's your kingdom; you must fight for it or your people will suffer the consequences," Nessa replied, and he smiled as he looked at her.
"Are you a leader of anything?" He inquired.
"I can't tell you that yet, but just so you know, I'm hoping to gain something out of this," She responded.
"There's nothing wrong with that; you deserve something in return for going out of your way to help us for whatever reason, doesn't matter what it is right now," Eli said, and Nessa smiled.
"Really? Well then I am glad I actually came here," Nessa replied as she sat down and Akio jumped up and sat beside her on the bed then she patted his head and he wagged his tail, happily.
