Before seeing Jasper again Jemma was questioned a bit further by Prince Fiyori, which she did not mind. She liked the fact that some one new was speaking to her and was actually interested in what she had to say, it was rather different than back home. In EverGlenn woman did not have much say so and since Jemma did not have a mother to speak to no one really spoke to her or cared to know about what was going on with her or what her opinion was, especially with her guardian so busy as of late. "Jasper has been training quite hard for the Championship, he is confident and ready to dominate" This was how they wanted her to speak she hoped, it was how she would speak when not among important people back home. Jemma loved to fully express herself. When Jasper and the King of Iglasia neared Fiyori kissed her hand politely before leaving her. [quote=lant green]"My son, I have great news for you, this year during the Dueling Championship, Prince Jasper has agreed to fight handicap against you, this will be a stepping stone to your victory for the title," they shared an embrace before the two separated from the group and left the Prince and Princess alone. Jasper looked at Jemma while the King spoke to his son, giving her a reassuring smile that he knew what he had done and everything was going to be okay. When the King left with Fiyori he stepped up to his sister, "We now have soldiers for Father's war, it was one of the things I was capable of gambling, don't worry though, I'll win that duel, thanks to you my left arm is extremely powerful on its own." He gave her another reassuring smile while placing a hand on her shoulder, "I have to talk to a courier, I'll leave you in the hands of Vince, he's the youngest brother and will keep you company till I return," The Golden Prince left back down the hall and away from everyone.[/quote] The young princess kept quiet and listened to The King speak and then leave with his son, what he had to say made her a bit nervous but she had confidence in her brother, he always knew what he was doing. Then Jasper spoke to her and she even more confident in him. [i]He is going to be fine, I know it.[/i] When at last Jemma was left on her own another boy came to her, he was younger than anyone she had met yet but not exactly a child. This was the youngest prince, Vince, the way he acted seemed rather stand-off-ish, like he didn't want to be around her. "Thank you for taking the time to show me there" Was all she could think of to say since he wasn't saying much in return. [quote=lant green] "I hear your brother is going handicap this year, it's Fiyori's and Jasper's first year in the Championship, what a stupid mistake, my brother is going to beat the crap out of him, he still hasn't forgiven him for what he did to me all those years ago."[/quote] Jemma looked up from her thoughts, the things he said were harsh and unnecessary she gritted her teeth when he showed her the scar. "Jasper did that to you...?" It was hard to believe, but there was something in the back of her mind that knew Jasper was capable of flying off the handle and hurting someone. Princess Jemma stopped in her tracks in the hall way and began to speak in an upset tone, "listen, child, my brother could defeat your brother easily! The only reason he lost that duel years ago was because I interrupted him, he is the best duelist there is and you better not forget it"
