Third Person's POV

          The journey continued as Yosetsu carried Momo on his back and were off to their destination. They were able to cover some ground and were both able to make progress despite the short delay due to the princess's ankle.

However, the princess herself couldn't help but feel so worried about Awase every once in a while. They started their travel early in the morning and by this time, it was almost afternoon. The thief had been carrying her for such a long time and despite the few breaks they got in between their walks, Yaoyorozu still felt like Yosetsu needed to rest more.

"Yosetsu, maybe we should take a break first again." She suggested.

"Oh, do you need some rest, your highness?"

"No, you need it."

Awase chuckled, "I'm alright, Momo. I'm not getting any aches from my arms, back nor legs yet."

"But still! It's better to rest before the pain comes rising at you by surprise." Princess Momo pointed out.

Yosetsu sighed, knowing he really can't get himself out of a princess's orders, "Alright, let's just find a good place to settle down a bit and maybe we can have lunch if you want."

"Sure, I don't mind. It is almost lunch time after all." Momo smiled.

It was all settled, they were gonna take another break and have some lynch before they could continue their adventure.

          While all of that was happening, a ceratin barbarian and his dragon shifter just so happened to be coming across the same forest as the other two were.

The barbarian, King Katsuki Bakugou, groaned as he kept listening and hearing all complaining coming from his dragon, Eijirou Kirishima.

"Come on Katsuki, we've been walking for several hours!! Can't we at least take a quick rest and just eat something??"

"Not now idiot. We still need to walk a bit more further."

Eijirou groaned even more, "Bakugou!!! Please let's at least--"

"Shh!"

The dragon shifter was cut off by the King Bakugou shushing him. Kirishima was deeply confused yet he watch as his friend looked around the forest with his eyes. His hand was on the handle of the sword, as a sound of a branch breaking came.

"Uhh...what was that?" Kirishima asked in a whispered volume.

"Just stay quiet."

He did as he was told as Katsuki brought out his sword. Footsteps began to get louder, as if someone was walking towards their direction.

They both braced themselves, preparing and being ready to face whoever was coming in their way.

Then, the most famous criminal came in with the princess of Creatorian being carried on his back.

"Hey...isn't that Yosetsu Awase?! Like the thief?!" Kirishima yelled out, "with...Yaomomo??"

Yosetsu had his eyes widened in shock as he took a step back, scared seeing the same two men he encountered in the village about to threaten him, and possibly kill him.

Bakugou pointed his sword towards Awase, "What are you doing with the princess, thief?!"

"Woah woah easy there, fellas. It's not what it looks like." Awase said, trying not to sound suspicious or make anything look suspicious at all.

"Oh really? Then why are you carrying Momo on your back, hm?" Kirishima asked, crossing his arms.

"Because I sprained my ankle." Yaoyorozu bluntly answered which made both the dragon king and the dragon shifter shocked.

"Uhh, wait really?? Like this guy wasn't kidnapping you, Momo??" Kirishima questioned her and she nodded.

"It's honestly my own blame and responsibility for this. I asked Yosetsu here if he could come with me to explore the outsude walls of my kingdom on a little adventure. Don't worry guys, he isn't as bad as you think." Momo explained.

Katsuki scoffed, "As if. He's a criminal."

"At least he isn't an angry guy like you." She replied with a smirk

"Ooooo~" Eijirou snickered, trying to keep in his laughter from that roast coming from her. The king glared at his friend.

Awase just completely stood there silent, not knowing nor wanting to say anything at all. He's aware that ghe three are friends so there's not much of a problem, but he was there too so things could get worse.

"So umm..are we good now..??" The criminal asked.

"I don't know, are we?" Katsuki questioned him with an evil glare which made Yosetsu gulped in fear.

"Bakugou, that's enough. Awase hasn't done anything wrong to me and has been a really nice gentleman." Momo spoke sternly towards the barbarian.

"She's right, your highness. This is Yaoyorozu, I'm sure we can trust him." Eijirou agreed.

Bakugou rolled his eyes, "Well I still don't."

Awase sighed and smirked to king, "Well then, if you really want proof that I am actually good, then I won't mind giving a good example. Your majesty, you were at the small village with Kirishima few days ago. Your money that was in a small pouch got stolen by a thief, correct?"

The two had their eyes widened in shock. Katsuki asked, "How did you know that? Were you the one who tried to steal it?!"

"No, instead, I was the one who returned it back. A guy with a hat walked towards you with your pouch that had your money and gave it to you, he was with a girl with her cloak on. I was the man with the hat on who also retrieved your stolen money, and that girl with yhe cloak was Princess Momo." He explained.

"Wait, so you two were the couple who got our money back??" Kirishima asked and Yosetsu nodded.

"It was mostly Yosetsu who retrieved it without having the thief knowing." She giggled.

Awse looked at the barbarian, hoping that it might show that he's good and hold no bad intentions.

King Bakugou let out a deep sigh and replied, "Well then, I guess you aren't that bad. Thank you, but I don't think walking around with the princess in such a public place would do any help if your intention was to not let anyone know the Creatorian princess was not in the palace nor a wanted theif is with her like some kind of boyfriend."

Yosetsu and Momo blushed beet doot red and yelled at him, "We're not in a relationship!!"

"He does kinda have a point. If I remember, that woman, which is Momo, looked like she had her arm clinged around the man, who was Awase, like they were together." Kirishima teased as he snickered at the two.

They both groaned in frustration, both not wanting to deal with any of this anymore.
