Yoseph snuck out. He went to a cemetery to meet up with Jessica, his love. He waited there for two hours for her.

"I'm so sorry Yoseph, Tiffit was giving me a lecture of who to marry and why." explained Jessica.

"Who she suggest?" asked Yoseph getting up.

"The current king of the Gun Gang.." Silent fell. Jessica looked at Yoseph nervously; Yoseph looked at her with a straight face.

"Are you planning too?" he asked.

"No!" Jessica answered abruptly, "I love you, and only you! So what your not head of the Gun Gang anymore? I don't for sure, as long as I get to see you! I don't care what you are!" Yoseph kissed Jessica on the cheeks, her eyes teared up as she saw Yoseph walking away.


"Yoseph..."


Next day Jessica saw Yoseph walking around the capitol building. She was there for a meeting with Donny.


"Yoseph!" Jessica waved over at Yoseph. He looked up then looked down, he vanished behind a building. Jessica looked at the spot he was standing at, she walked inside, sad. She entered the building, and sat down at the table. Donny was there, also leaders from some of the other neighboring clans, cults, family, and groups from neighboring city-states.

"Why did you call me here Donny?" asked Jessica, writting things down.

"I called you, all, for a meeting" Donny answered back. Jessica looked at him.


"What is this meeting about?" shouted a voice, "that's what she means!"

"An assassination of Yoseph Quinn!"

"Quinn!?"

"Yes, the first," Donny stood up, "He's a threat to everyone here!

"No he is not!" Jessica snapped.

"Yes he is and you know it Miss. Swordswoman!"

"He's telling the truth."

"No!" Jessica snapped again.

"He almost killed you! Y'all went to trial!" Jessica got out of her chair, slammed her hand on the table; she took off from the table and left the room. She turned back, stared at Donny; looked him dead in the eye, "And nice try, I'll never marry you!"


Donny cursed under his breath.


Two days later, Donny called a meeting with Don and Yoseph. Don arrived an hour early; Yoseph arrived an hour late. Everyone sat down at a small table, looking at one another.


"Son what do you want?" King Don asked.

"Yoseph, who is she in love with?" asked Donny.

Why?" answered Yoseph with a question.

"She only does things with you when you were king, so you had time alone with her. She never did trade with anyone else," Donny paused, " who does she like!"

"How am I suppose to know?"

"Stop answering my question with a question!"

Don got up, grabbed the silver gun and left, "Waste of my time son."


Yoseph got up from the table, Even if knew, I wouldn't tell you!"

"Why?" asked Donny.

"Cause its none of youe business on who she likes."

"Yes it is!"

"No its not!" Yoseph yelled leaving the room.


Yoseph went home to pack his things. His mother walked in on him packing everything.

"Where are you going?"

"I'm going to start my own- 'No you aren't... Your going to see someone, staying with them..."'

"Alright, I'm going to see Jessica, we're going to make a new kingdom, but only its not going to be a kingdom, I don't know what it'll be." answered Yoseph.

"Does she know?"

"No."

"Mom, I love her. She loves me. That's why we've been together since I was 19 and her 18. I'm now 21. We've been together for almost three years. I love her, and I'm going to do what I need to do to be with her and protect her."

"I know son, your dad was the same. He never liked the way his King was ruling the people."

Yoseph stopped packing and listened, "What do you mean, Mom?"


"Your dad came from an old kingdom, no longer here. It ruled over multiple city-states, more than any of today's families, cults, gang, clans and kingdoms combined. I was a royal family members of one of the city-states the kingdom ruled over, he saw me, and fell in love right away. I saw him out in the courtyard working, I fell in love with him too. We went on one date and never saw him again. I found out he went to war against the king. He was part of the rebell group you adore so much, Yoseph. The rebels won the war, took down the king and restored power to the city-states. An arrangement was made, to free my people from the power of your dad's grasp a deal was made, he honestly forgot about me coming from a royal family, he never forgot me but he forgot where I came from. He was busy with the war. You are the third person in our family to rule over a well known power, Yoseph. The first is your great-great-great granddad Chance Quinn. Second is your dad, Marcus Quinn. The kingdom of Chance fell when a civil war broke out. The Gun Gang is a piece of the many rebel groups that fought against your dad and emerged victorious. Your dad, Yoseph, died evacuating his people and finding us safety." Ms. Quinn took a deep breath before she started crying, "Yoseph, if your going to start your own kingdom...please be careful, don't die. I don't want to loose another person I love.." 

Yoseph got up and kissed his mother on the forhead, he looked at her and smiled. He finished packing his things, "Once we bring back the Chance-Quinn Kingdom, mom, you're queen." Yoseph paused, "how does that sound mom. Queen Marble of Chance-Quinn Kingdom." She smiled and nodded her head. Yoseph smiled and hugged her, and left.


"I love you mom," Yoseph waved bye.

"I love you too, Yoseph," She waved back crying tears of joy.


Tiffit walked in on Jessica brushing her hair.

"Young lady, why are you up?" Tiffit asked brushing Jessica's hair for her.

"I can't sleep, so I'm brushing my hair until I can sleep."

"Oh."

There's a boy downstairs waiting for you...the boy who almost- 'Yoseph."'

"I love himTiffit, he did he did nothing wrong to me, he wanted me to lie, so I wouldn't get punished by anyone. Especially you. Bring him up here Tiffit, please."


Tiffit left the room, she brought Yoseph up to Jessica's door. Jessica opened it and saw Yoseph in black with a backpack on.

"Whats that around your waist?" Jessica asked.

"We're going to make our own country kingdom." answered Yoseph.

"Alright."


Tiffit eyes widen, "No!"

"Sorry Tiffit, your queen again." paused Jessica, "I'm going with Yoseph.

"Why! He has been nothing but trouble for all the leaders in the area!"

"Tiffit, I don't care. I love Yoseph, he's been nothing but an angel to us! When we were on the brink of war with the Knife Kingdom he was there to provide us with soldiers and medicine and materials! So leave him alone. All the bad things that happened, the trial! It was all for play! Nothing happened on the night he was caught we were talking; he lied, he took the blame for me. He's innocent!" snapped Jessica pulling Yoseph down the stairs with her.

"Be safe Jessica." Tiffit paused. Jessica looked back and waved bye. Yoseph looked back, "protect her." He nodded his head.


They drove off, into the sunset.
