A state young man flew along the border. It has been three months since his former fiancée disappeared. The young prince was enjoying his newfound freedom and he cared little about the loss of his bride. He was rather pleased, now at least he didn't have this brat on his neck and he could continue to practice his bachelor existence. From hearsay she was too childish and too energetic for him anyway. After all, a woman wasn't there to argue and talk, but to cook and give birth to children. Exactly, women were useless for more than that. After years of brainwashing, his father finally got these facts into his mind. It has to be said that his father only ever pointed out these statements to him when they were among himself. In the presence of his mother he had never heard him spit loud noises.
The young prince stroked his hair. Tz! And his father called himself a man? He couldn't even stand up to his mother, let alone win a single victory in an argument. His father could be the strongest man in the world, but he would never be stronger than his mother. Living with his parents proved it. His mother was the only woman he knew who could tell a whole story in one breath. And he doubted anyone could outdo his mother in this. From an early age he already knew what type of woman he was sure not to marry. Namely one like his mother. Don't get this wrong, he loved his mother. But one talkative woman in his life was enough for him, but the woman he would spend his entire life with was definitely not supposed to be like his mother. But he didn't have to worry about that at the moment, he could take a lot of time and gain some experience with women, he was no longer engaged and therefore still available to every woman.
Unfortunately, the disappearance also had its negative consequences. On the day that the princess of the Shen Long realm disappeared, she was with some followers and servants on the border of her and the Vegeta-sei realm. The servants testified that they had never let the princess out of their sight and looked carefully at her. And there was no sign of pursuit anywhere. But when the princess had to go behind the bushes for human needs, it was the last time she was seen. The followers searched in vain for her for hours. At first they thought her disappearance was a joke, as the princess liked to play hide and seek and made her servants freak out. But it was afternoon, night and the princess was still as if swallowed by the ground. Fear of being punished and desperate, some servants fled and the rest of the faithful returned to the unsuspecting king. The king raged and immediately had a search party set up.But they too came back to the palace without having found a trace. A rumor eventually surfaced that the Vegeta-sei king had something to do with it and had arranged the robbery of his beloved daughter. The King of Shen Long soon believed this rumor as well, as his neighboring country had armored a lot in recent years. And everything indicated that the King of Vegeta-sei was planning a war against his country. Of course, the King of Shen Long didn't let that go and gave the Vegeta-sei King an ultimatum. One should hand him his daughter or Vegeta-be should reckon with a war. Enraged by the accusation, the Vegeta-sei king closed all borders to his country and strengthened his army. His son, the heir to the throne and the general of Vegeta-sei, he ordered to oversee the borders. He should immediately arrest all intruders who came from Shen Long Reich and all conspicuous subjects and throw them into dungeons.
Bored, the prince explored the area. Nothing out of the ordinary could be seen. In the meantime the two suns were at their zenith and the temperature rose as a result. The prince passed a place where he rarely patrolled. This area was unusually heavily forested for its surroundings. Merchants avoided this area with their carts and gladly avoided it. It was said that cursed animals lived in this area. But in the middle of it was a beautiful circular lake. Seven small, star-shaped islands rose from the deep bottom of the lake. Every thousand years at midnight, when the tiny moon of Chiyukuu was exactly over the lake, a sleeping dragon from the bottom of the lake should appear on the surface and grant wishes. For this reason this lake was called "The Seven Dragonball Sea". But only a few believed in this legend. Dozens ventured to the lake at midnight.These have not been seen since.
The prince was troubled by the heat. He was about to fly back to the palace when he saw the shimmering lake. The temptation was great, even though he knew about the cursed animals. Reluctantly, he approached the lake and landed on the bank. The water was cold and refreshing, and soon the doubts were forgotten. He eagerly took off his robes and set them down under a tree without worrying. He also took off the orange scarf that he usually wore around his neck. The cloth was worn and had to endure a lot, but it was a memento. As a young child, he stole the shawl from the Princess of Shen Long. It always reminded him of his first kiss. Like a maid's panties in his underwear drawer, which he attaches to his first ... and then the white glove that attaches him to ... Ok ok, he just likes collecting things.
He was about to jump into the cool water when he heard a rustling behind a bush. The prince immediately took up a fighting position and expected an opponent to hop out of the bushes at any moment. He stood there for a while, but the sound disappeared again. Nothing. His senses had played a trick on him. Annoyed, he turned back to the water and dived down. The reluctant water slackened his muscles. He relaxed and drifted to the other bank.
Meanwhile, his clothes began to move on their own. The invisible thief slept the robes with him and hid them in a tree hole, which was difficult to find due to the thick thicket of roots. The orange cloth caught his eye. Wait a minute ... wasn't that ...?
After a few backstroke and diving spells, he swam back to the bank where his clothes were. Clothes? What clothes? His senses hadn't fooled him earlier.Something or someone had been there and still was. He could feel the eyes fixed on him. The thief must have grabbed his clothes. He couldn't fly home naked. He didn't have any problems with his body. After all, he looked like a Greek god. And his lower region was also impressive. He was a man through and through. But a prince flying around without clothes was not right.
"Whoever you are! Show yourself !!!" he roared around. "Where are my robes?!?!" Silence. A faint sound came from the bushes. Ha! Now he had the thief! He wouldn't let the thief get away that easily. He launched a surprise attack. With a weak Ki-beam he set the bushes on fire until the remnants of the bushes were only ashes. But nobody was there. The thief was good, he had evaded his attack. The prince screwed up his eyes and pricked up his ears.A second time he wouldn't miss the thief.
"Psst ..." A beep brushed his ears. He listened more closely. "... here I am ...".
