A/N: Hey~ it has been a looooooooooong time since I've posted and I feel really bad about that. I occasionally pop on to read fanfics, but I'm usually on my phone and I have no time to comment D: Now that the summer's here and I don't go outside, I figured I'd start writing again. Forget college and coffee shops, I am absolutely in love with medieval AUs! I simply could not find one with TeenTop. So yeah. I'm here to write it. I didn't want to forget my idea for this okay, it absolutely had to be done at this time. I really hope you enjoy hhhhh

A/N: Hey, I'll be taking requests for other Kpop idols (SHINee's Key, EXO's Kai, 2NE1's Bom, etc.) to be submitted into this story, just give me their name and their personality and I'll add them in where I see fit. (I especially need female idols (2 or 3) to be a part of L.Joe's 'adoptive family'.) Or if you think I should add something to one of the character's personalities that's already up here. I'm free to suggestions ^^

Warning: Mild violence.

[Flashback]

    Screams echo through the castle halls and sounds of bodies hitting the ground seem to reverberate throughout the kingdom. A stampede of footsteps rush by your door. For a moment, you're almost too afraid to move. An attack? You hear the clacking of sword against shield and you let out a shaky breath, with your left hand clutched to your chest. Yes, it most definitely is an attack. You throwback your covers and leap from your bed, reaching inside the nightstand to equip yourself with your dagger. 
    You creep slowly to the door and wait. More footsteps. You listen closer. One pair, or two? You can't tell. They slow down as they reach your door. You brace yourself as the door swings open. Two men enter the room, but they don't notice you, and you can thank the shadows for that. With their backs to you, the men being whispering to each other. You can already tell that they aren't any of your knights. 
    "The princess isn't in 'ere, I'm tellin' ya," one of them hisses.
    "Then where the 'ell is she? None a' the others saw anyone leave this room," the taller of the two argues.
    They continue to bicker. You use this as an opportunity to sneak up behind them. With the little light flooding in through the torch in the hallway, you find the chink in the armour of the shorter man. You swiftly your dagger in, and the man drops to the ground, not yet dead. He'll bleed out. 
     His partner whips around, wildly lashing his own sword around. It's too late, you've already retreated back into the shadows, with the man spitting curses at you.
     "Come 'ere you ugly hag! I know you're there! I'll send ye back to 'ell where you belong," he growls, still swinging his weapon. "You can be reunited wit' yer family then!"
     You let out a barely audible gasp. The man picks up on it and advances, sword pointed out words. You feel your way along the wall, keeping an eye on the man at all times, until you feel the corner, and you circle around where you had once been. You kick the knight's feet out from under him and pin him down. Your eyes have long since adjusted to the darkness and you can see his face almost clearly. He's roughly 25, and you'd find him quite attractive if he hadn't been trying to kill you. You draw your blade to his neck and press down roughly, not enough to break skin just yet. 
    You snarl, "What did you say about my family?" 
    "Oh,the 'ittle princess doesn't know? Maybe you should find out," he chuckles, but doesn't give you a satisfactory answer.
    You press the dagger harder into his neck and pierce the skin. The dark red liquid touches your thumb. You don't react.
    "In ten seconds, if you don't give me the answer I'm looking for, I'm going to kill you. Now, what happened to my parents?"
    "Yer gonna kill me 'nyways, sweetheart. Why should I ans--" his reply was cut off with a quick swipe of a blade.
    The fighting outside has quieted, but you linger for a moment longer, listening for signs of other enemy soldiers. Seconds pass, and soon seconds turn to minutes. No more fights have begun, no more enemies seeking the princess. You hurry out and make your way to the thrown room. Inside, several knights and servants are gathered, but not as many as there had been in the past. Everyone looks at you wearily. There's blood splattered on you. 
    As you look at the faces around you, something nags at the back of your mind. The king and queen's thrones are empty. Every bit of energy you once had leaves your body, leaving you numb. Deep down you know what's happened, but you won't accept it. You tried to remain cool and retain an air of regality as you search for the words inside of your head.
   "M-my parents?" You're finally able to ask as your voice cracks. The crowd gathered averts their eyes. One knight dejectedly shakes his head.
   "I'm sorry princess, they're gone. We tried to save them, but the enemies outnumbered us. Everyone not present was slaughtered, and for a minute we thought the whole royal family had been."

[end flashback]

[one month later]

   "Princess, a message!" Your personal servant, Hoya, announces, bowed before you with one arm outstretched, gripping a sheet of paper. You gratefully take the paper from him and scan the page. 
   "Two weeks?" You cry in outrage, "I have two weeks to find a husband before I'm overthrown?! I'm still grieving for my parents and the friends I lost and they give me two weeks to find a husband? This is nonsense!"
   
 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In another part of this very same kingdom, and unfortunate knight is scavenging the forest, looking for anything he can take back to his family so they can eat. He picks his way carefully through the brush and catches sight of a plump rabbit through the leaves on a bush. He readies his bow, and pulls back. 
   'It's a damn shame, Byunghun,' he thinks, 'that a knight like yourself has to do this. This is the work of a serf, not nobility. Ah, but, the king has become poor and unable to properly feed us knights. Which is why I must do my best to feed my family.' He lets go of the string and the arrow hits the rabbit dead-on. But before he is able to celebrate, there's a hand roughly pulling him to his feet. 
   "And just what do you think you're doing hunting Paeni territory, you filthy rat?" The unknown man asks.
   "....Paeni? Isn't this the Agrisa territory.....? Ah! It seems that I've wandered into your kingdom by mistake," Byunghun tries to reason.
   "Liar! You're hunting in Paeni territory on purpose. Or are you on a scounting mission? Planning to finish off the Paeni royal family? Whatever it is, you're coming with me!"
