Nina pov.
I leaned down, about to kiss High Roller, when I grabbed him by his sleeves and started spinning him around. "Stop! Let me go!", High Roller yelled. "My pleasure!", I said as I let him go, causing High Holler to fly across the room, hitting Bear Stomp before landing on the ground. "Did you really think you could pull a trick like that on me?", I asked as I stood over him with my arms crossed. High Roller quickly jumped up and ran over to the Zebra Brothers.

Lin Chung pov.
"You bone heads said the rose would work!", High Roller yelled at the Zebra Brothers. "W-we tried to tell you-", Sparky White started. "-The rose won't work if whoever smelled the pollen is already in love with someone else.", Sparky Black finished. "What?!", High Roller asked in surprise and anger. "I wonder who the princess could be in love with?", Mystique Sonia asked.

I looked over at Nina, who looked over at me and gave me a small smile before turning back to High Roller. "You made a mess of my kingdom, put my subjects along with my father and I in danger, and used magic to fool me! That is unacceptable, leave now, or I will force you out myself.", Nina said. "Oh yeah, you and what army?", Sparky White asked.

3rd person pov.
The Cat king stood next to Nina as he and the other cats pulled out chili pepper firecrackers. "You might wanna run.", Mighty Ray said as High Roller and the Zebra Brother yelled in fear before they ran out with Bear Stomp following close behind them. When they were gone, Nina ran over to Lin Chung. "Lin Chung.", Nina said as she hugged him. "I am glad that you're okay.", Lin Chung said as he hugged her back. "Now that High Roller is gone, we shall continue with the wedding!", The Cat king said as the other cats cheered. Nina let go of Lin Chung as she frowned a bit.

Nina pov.
I frowned a bit at hearing my father's announcement when I felt Lin Chung grab my hand. "You can do this. I'll be right here.", Lin Chung said, giving me a small smile. I nodded as I took a breath and stood up straight before facing my father.

"Father, I do not want to get married.", I said as my father looked at me in surprise. "What? But I thought you wanted this?", My father said. "I only agreed because I knew it would make you happy. I know you want me happy and want what's best for me, but...", I paused for a moment as I exchanged a glance with Lin Chung and squeezed his hand. Lin Chung gave me a reassuring smile as I turned back to my father. "But I should get to make my own decisions and write my own story.", I said. My father looked at me for a moment before he sighed. "You're right. I just wanted to protect you and make sure you were happy. But as I now realize, you can protect yourself and make your own decisions. The wedding is off, and the cat castle wishes to rejoin Big Green if they accept our apology.", The Cat king said to Apetrully. "Apology accepted, Big Green would be honored to have the cat kingdom at their side.", Apetrully said as he and Cat king shook hands/paws.

Lin Chung pov.
"I think there's one more apology to make, isn't that right, banana brain?", Mystique Sonia said to Mighty Ray. Mighty Ray grumbled a bit before Yaksha hit him, causing him to rub his head while walking over to the Cat king. "I'm sorry for offending you guys with my jokes. I didn't mean to, I they would make you laugh.", Mighty Ray said. "Apology accepted, but please think before you speak next time.", The Cat king said. "Mighty Ray, thinking? That I'd love to see.", Mystique Sonia said as Mighty Ray glared at her.

I see Nina get an idea as she whispered something to the Cat king. The Cat king nodded as Nina stepped towards Apetrully. "Apetrully, if I may, it would be an honor to join Big Green and possibly become a member of First Squad. That is if you'll allow me.", Nina said. "We would be honored to have you at Big Green, but Mr. No Hands, do you wish to accept the princess's request of joining First Squad?", Apetrully asked him.

"Having someone as strong and clever as the princess on First Squad would be an honor.", Mr. No Hands said. "Thank you, and please call me Nina. Nina Ketura.", Nina said as she looked over at me, causing me to blush a bit. I was expecting Nina to join Big Green with the Cat king, but I wasn't expecting her to want to join First Squad as well. Something tells me our days at Big Green are about to get a lot more interesting.
