9 Complicated (1/2)
His reaction was quick, thus he could quickly catch the thing that was swirling towards him.
He had training of his own, he's father thought it might be necessary, after all he was the crown prince, and there will be many people trying to kill him, so he might just as well learn to defend himself.
Prince Noctis was natrually good at it, and unlocked his powers at a young age, and from there he was evolving, getting stronger, until his father didn't have to worry anymore.
He haven't practised in a long time, but he's glad that he could still react fast though, otherwise he wouldn't have to watch his life anymore, because he wouldn't have one.
He caught the thing a few sentemeters from his face, only then he saw it was a dagger facing his way.
...
Snow was practising her aim with her daggers, throwing it at different targets around the room.
She saw the prince there again, but she ignored him, as usual.
She thought that he would leave right after he was done discussing things with Cid, like he always did.
She sometimes wondered why he was here this much, it began happening after the summit. She would also sometimes find him watching her train, like he found it interesting.
But what she didn't realise was, when Cid was leaving the prince didn't follow, instead he made his way to her.
With her back facing him, she was hitting targets one by one, when she suddenly turned and threw a dagger at the target behind her, not realising that the prince was infront of the target.
She was too shocked to move or say anything. She didn't expect anyone behind her, nonetheless prince Noctis, she was even more shocked to see that he caught the dagger only with one hand!
Cid always would praise her for her speed at throwing.
”This yours?” It was more a statement that a question, only then she realised she was staring at him like an owl with wide eyes. ”Uh, yeah, sorry about that” after she said that, she immediately regretted it. Really, there was nothing better for her to say, he is the prince for goodness sake! ”I mean, you aren't hurt or anything right?” He chuckled, ”no, I'm fine” he handed the dagger back to her and said, ”you got quite a throw there, I almost didn't even catch it” he smiled at her, she walked to where her things were.
He followed her waiting for her to answer.
