“Yield, Prince Marth,” her voice was commanding, quite serious, and the man that had been walking casually beside Ike merely one moment ago was suddenly very still and upright. Ike turned to see who it was that stirred this sudden change; from the quick flash of her gaze meeting his, it became obvious that this was some sort of game to them both. Without faltering, she continued: “I am afraid I am going to have to place you under arrest.”

Marth had still not moved; he was looking straight ahead at the empty hall, but a smile graced his handsome features. “The charges?” came his question, with only the slightest edge of curiosity.

She was still quite serious, and still very commanding, when she informed her lover of his crime.

“You,” she accused, “did not greet me this morning upon my arrival, Prince Marth. I do believe this is against our agreement, and should be classified as treason.” It was getting rather difficult for her to hold back her smile, and Prince Marth’s grin could not possibly grow any larger. Ike shook his head solemnly, a silent bystander witnessing the absolute absurdity of romance.

Prince Marth turned with one swish of his cape. When Princess Zelda’s eyes met his, her ploy was up. Still, they continued their little game.

“You are correct, your Majesty. I have breached the guidelines of our agreement - and without the least bit of regret. I shall accept any punishment you deem adequate.” He sighed dramatically and offered his hands in front of him, as if he were to be hand-cuffed.

Princess Zelda’s decision was immediate: “I shall see you in my bedroom this evening, Prince Marth,” she said. “It is then that I shall decide the full extent of your punishment.”

He winked, and she turned and left, her eyes glinting just a tiny bit brighter.

“Well,” announced Ike, as Marth and he continued their original walk down the hall, “I’m not entirely sure what I just witnessed, and I’m not entirely sure that I want to know, either.”
