Sloan had to wander around the palace to avoid the queen's questions about she and Prince Sage sharing a room for her third day there. She was hiding from Sage. She knows he'll make her face the queen to answer those questions. She can't think of anything but to run.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1G77BHJevS
She lost rationality just now.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUdPKmi0lv
Soon enough, Sloan got tired of strolling around and went to the palace garden to relax. It's her third time being around here, and she never get tired of laying her back at the large shade tree near the water fountain.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmCTg6GcER
It felt so peaceful, quiet, and compose.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5dIRsalIi
Everytime she's alone, she's tend to be philosophical and think of things that will give her inner peace and less worries.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvWHgNife8
She regret not bringing a paper and pen with her, she wanted to draw the palace garden. Or maybe she'll paint it, she kind of wanting to paint it.Though she was never good at arts, but she's trying.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9gQAO7dQi
Sloan sat under the shade tree and saw a sillouhette far away that was coming. One of the gardeners, she guessed. The gardener was wearing a white clothes that she thinks is a gardener suit and a floppy hat to protect himself from the sun.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpP3EJg9S6
He doesn't seem to notice her, mainly because the tree she was laying on was a little far. But she can spot the gardener's facial expressions, he was smiling while cutting something over the grass.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVGOcGtzv9
Out of a sudden, she spotted a moving on the bushes behind the gardener. More like a rustle on the bushes. Her eyes narrowed. She slowly stand up, having an instinct to be aware.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrNmDVsNel
In a swift of a moment, her heart almost dropped knowing that the thing that's rustling on the bushes behind the gardener is a big snake.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3w36mj9rRD
"You! WATCH OUT! ROLL OVER THE SIDE!!! QUICK!!!"
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlkYPU95qb
Sloan run for the gardener's life. The snake seemed to notice the situation and knowing that it'll got caught, it took the chance to attack the gardener but Sloan hastily over in action and save the gardener as they both roll over the grass at the Palace Garden.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwgG9rUD5d
Before the gardener even processed what just happened, Sloan took his dagger and look towards the enormous snake that could digest anyone in just one gulped.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUcgxPJshc
The gardener's eyes widened, the one who saved him...WAS THE...WAS LADY SLOAN!!! THE PRINCESS!!!! Well, soon to be princess!!! AND HOW EVEN DOES THAT CREATURE GET IN THE PALACE GARDEN?????
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqx2hjfwDIz
"YOU! RUN! CALL THE KNIGHTS RIGHT AWAY!" Sloan shouted, out of breath.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiopjrATdJ
"Y-YES! YOUR HIGHNESS!"
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIGRaFNBsS
I'm still 'Miss', Sloan wanted to say, but the gardener ran away already.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KJu7u6e7W
Sloan pointed the dagger to the enormous snake, legs almost trembling. The snake scales' was dark as night, and its pupil was shrink, like it was holding an overall grudge throughout its life.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYGvUR950r
She slowly step back, still pointing the dagger and breathing heavily.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufSNrPMnWt
It's fine...I'm not gonna die...
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzjSZGrMJD
Sloan reassured herself. The last time she fought a big snake like this one was at the Welsam Forest near the Kingdom's south border where she wandered around with Corvina at 16, she had killed it and almost risked her right arm. It was a forest, they're aware of the danger there and fought with various beast.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGibJGnTorJ
But this snake here...it shouldn't be here! Why is it here?!
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwWZDSwG0C
Just as Sloan was making conclusions in her head, the enermous snake hissed at her and move towards her at a swift speed. She lost thinking of next moves and sprint.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgic4sfXPKg
Think, damn! Sloan, think! Damn! Damn! Damn!
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGKS4PP8KH
I take my words back, I'm gonna die today---
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dwoKNLgqb
The tree!
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Wl2c6hbkV
Sloan saw the shade tree and thought of strategy, a strategy she never tried before but she's been meaning to do her whole life. In the past, she tend to forgot everything she strategized of but now, thank the Gods and Goddesses for giving her signs for remembering it!
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55FtJClpAl
Sloan gripped the dagger on her two hands, still the snake coming for her. She's being aware, looking back from time and calculating the chance of the strategy she thought of.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQU2hpRaBGh
She gulped, she's afraid of closing her eyes as she vertically run over the tree and her feet hanging by the air. The snake's forehead got hit on the tree, Sloan swiftly got ahold of her dagger and striked the snake's forehead from behind. She heard a hissed, and saw a crazy wriggle movement of the snake's body trying to get itself away from pinning to a tree cause by a dagger. Sloan fell over the snake, exhausted. She tried groping the snake's scales and steadied so that she won't be push away by its strong wriggle. She groaned.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRraAyx3AJW
Damn...my foot...my foot still hurts. Now my head was spinning...could she get a break?
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavWJxNU24M
She's getting thirsty and restraining herself from fainting.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImt38dwPfx
Sloan breathe in relief when the strong wriggle stopped, he gaze at the head of the snake she pinned through the tree using a dagger, and she's certain that it's dead.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Eld6yV29K
She stopped.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Q6J2rkhHl
It's dead?
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh201itstj9
It's dead...But...
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGvV9oNuKt
No...something's wrong.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQVzLVlieA
Big snakes like this wouldn't get killed easily! She's certain! She once cut a big snake's head in the past and it's body still wriggle for about half an hour before it slowly stopped moving and die!
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzccR9JJGk1
And this one lasted for only about seconds!
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgqnGPmP92
Something was wrong!
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMddeHypNx7
With that thoughts, she started forming conclusions in her head.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimV2ELUxug
Is this snake...already dying before it comes here? Like it was waiting for someone to end him...or finding food...hunting for survival...but why here? What's wrong???!!!!!
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFP7ten5guc
Sloan was about to stand up when someone with a warm arms grabbed her waist and the next moment she knew, she's being carried far from the dead enormous black snake she killed.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBl9774nUTG
Even before stopping and getting away from the dead snake, Sage did not let go of her.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGr56rH6c0
"Your highness! Let go! Something's wrong with the snake and I have to look at it!"
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIU9TqhRYsc
"Sloan, it's dangerous!" Sage gripped her in his arms, afraid.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6qYv9qpMj
"No, your highness! It's dead! It's already dead! Not dangerous anymore! I'm going to check something! Something's wrong with that snake!" Sloan almost panicked, not keeping in mind that she's also hurt.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifQr2aa6Y5
In a matter of time when Sloan was shouting and Prince Sage was holding him tight to prevent her to go near the snake, almost all the people in the palace witnessed the dead enormous snake at the Palace Garden and become terrified.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uf0yDK42E
The knights started to surround the snake , "Don't go near! Back away! It's still dangerous!"
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wKFU5A0z1
All of them was distracted both by the snake and Sloan shouting.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5KM1VjKG6
What's wrong? What's going on? They asked themselves and become more terrified.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4GYdqLPum
After the knights shouted, Sloan's sight slowly turned black and fainted. Prince Sage paled and panicked just as the people in the Palace Garden.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkmpm7eifX
When the king and queen arrived there, it was all a chaos.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQPSLMDFjM
Only Sage could only think of one thing at that time.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAzouJecX9
Sloan.
