The Greatest Princess of Guardia Part 1
Nearing the Day
By The Game God
Princess Nadia was standing absolutely still as the seamstresses were making
the final alterations to her white and gold wedding dress. Lucca was
standing on the other side of the room. Ta-Kahjet was helping her into
her pale purple, maid of honor dress. Its beautiful,
Lucca. Nadia said. OW!! She looked down at
the seamstress who had just poked her with a pin.
Im sorry, highness.
Its alright. She looked up at Lucca. The dress
was about six inches too long for her. Think you can grow taller
before the wedding?
Lucca looked up, Before Saturday? Nadia smiled. Lucca
fidgeted as some seamstresses began to work on her dress. I
dont like wearing dresses.
Just think of it as a nightgown you can wear in pubic. Nadia
said.
Lucca tried to loosen her corset. I dont know about you,
but I dont have a nightgown this tight. Nadia laughed.
You look beautiful. a voice said. Nadia turned to see her
father standing in the doorway.
Daddy!
King Zollum walked over to his daughter and kissed her on the cheek. You
look just like your mother. Nadia blushed. I wanted
to give you this
he pulled out a tiny box.
every girl in the Guardia Line has worn this at their wedding.
He took at a tiny blue pin and attached it to the neckline of Nadias
gown.
Its beautiful. Nadia said.
King Zollum smiled, I always knew
Suddenly, his voice
choked. His eyes began watering and he began sweating profusely.
Daddy? Are you okay? Nadia asked. Then King
Zollums eyes rolled back and he collapsed to the ground, his body seizing
violently. Oh my god! Nadia shouted. She turned to
Ta-Kahjet, Get help!

Crono Sr. was helping his son with his blue and white formal knights
uniform. Asaahn was holding Cronos sword, the last part of the
formal uniform. Crono was trying desperately to comb down his spiky
brown hair.
Just then, Ta-Kahjet burst into the room, Come quick
its
the king. The four men raced down the hall to where the Nadia
and the king were on the floor.
Whats happening to him? Crono asked.
I dont know! Nadia panicked, I think hes
dying!
Asaahn knelt down next to the king. He held the kings seizing
body down and listened to his spastic breathing. He smelled the
kings breath. Hes been poisoned. Nadia
gasped. Asaahn opened his robe and took out a small vial. He
began to pour the liquid into the kings mouth. This is
a powerful anti-poison
The kings body slowly stopped
convulsing. It should help his body through the initial shock
but if we dont find what did this, he will die.

Nadia stood and watched as Asaahn examined a sample of the kings
blood. Asaahn poured water into the sample he took and dropped a small
white stone in the vial. The sample quickly turned black.
Its definitely a poison
but black?
Whats going on Asaahn? Nadia asked.
What ever kind of poison the king has bee exposed to is racing through
his system at an alarming rate. If it continues
He shook
his head, Hell be dead by Friday.
Nadia turned to her fathers comatose body and hugged him softly,
crying. Ill find who did this to you
Nadia
sobbed,
I swear it!
