I'll Save You // One-On-One // CLOSED

Everyone's heard of the age old tale of the Prince rescuing the Princess, or even just a guy rescuing a girl. But what about when the Princess rescues the Prince, huh? Is that story told? Of course not.

Princess Gwendolyn and Prince Ethan are as close as can be. Being the heirs of neighbouring kingdoms, they were friends from a young age. Over time, that friendship developed into romance. Their love became well-known, and no one cared about anyone else's romances. Prince Liam and Princess Raven of two other kingdoms, once the talk of the realm, felt extremely threatened. The hatched a plot to remove Gwendolyn and Ethan. They told Ethan that Gwendolyn was trapped somewhere, and that he had to go save her. When he arrived, they ambushed him and held him hostage. So, Gwendolyn set out to rescue him. After all, she can't marry a dead man.

I would like to be Gwendolyn but I am perfectly happy being Ethan since I have an idea.

I'm not a feminist per se, but I like girls being the hero of the story

I'm almost done and then I start)

Name: Gwendolyn "Gwen" Elena Bailey Evangeline Renee West-Phillips
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Bisexual
Appearance: Gwen is quite beautiful, but doesn’t pride herself on beauty. Her skin is a pale tan colour, with a small dusting of pale freckles along the bridge of her nose. Her eyes are crystal clear and quite unique: her left eye is blue with tinges of grey, while her right eye is green with tinges of blue. Her left eye is mostly blue and her right eye mostly green, however. Gwen’s hair is a natural red colour (actual red, not orange), and falls in waves around her shoulders. She has some mildly defined muscles.
Style: https://i.pinimg.com/originals/f2/5e/bb/f25ebbda5fc2c0c6572f1fda8d57ed7d.jpg. She always wears her engagement ring. She also constantly wears a simple, heart-cut topaz necklace, which Maddie had a matching one but ruby. She prefers flats but occasionally wears heels.
Personality: Gwen is confident, independant and defiant. She is friendly but will not hesitate to hurt you if you hurt her family. Gwen is kind, helpful, caring and does not one bit let her status define who she is.
Likes: Ethan, Maddie, Mason, Ayla, her kingdom
Dislikes: Liam, Raven
Background: Gwen was always going to second in line to the throne. She was the younger of two girls, her older sister Maddelina being 12 years her senior. Gwen didn't mind though. It left her to do anything she want. So, she chose to get the guards and soldiers to teach her how to fight. She is proficient in sword fighting and had-to-hand combat. She's also extremely flexible and agile. Bonus fact, she has excellent natural hearing.
Gwen's parents died when she was 3, Maddie being 15. Maddie would become Queen in three years. Even though she had future-Queen duties, Maddie still chose to raise Gwen instead of give her to someone else to look after. Gwen and Maddie were close as can be for 10 years, until Maddie's murder at age 27. Gwen, aged 15, put out a reward to whoever could find the Queen's murderer before the Royal guards. He was found by the Royal guards and sentenced to death. Gwen then had to learn everything about being a Queen in the next 3 years. At age 18, she was crowned Queen.
Theme song: Just Like Fire by P!nk
Quote/s:
-"I'm a damsel. I'm in distress. I can handle it. Have a nice day."
-"Fuck it Ethan. I'm the girl. Let me do it."
Other: Gwen almost always has a sheath around her waist with her own sword in it.

Gwen's breath was all that was audible as she turned into a corridor. She kept her sword firmly in her right hand as she wiped the slowly dripping cut on her left cheek. Raven and Liam's soldiers had put up quite a fight, but she had defeated them. Gwen's breath was shaky as she realised that there were no soldiers in the corridor or planning to attack her.

(yes)

Fuck it Ethan, She thought. I'm the girl. You should be rescuing me. Raven and Liam, newly appointed King and Queen of Liam's Kingdom, should know better. It takes about 3 years to master a skill such as sword fight or hand to hand combat. But 13 years? They should know better.

Gwen heard someone drop silently down behind her and whipped around, the tip of her sword millimeters from the strangers throat. "Raven," She hissed, but was stopped by a strong arm pulling her arms down and pinning them to her side. She felt the sharp blade of a sword pressing on her throat. Just by the feel of the blade, she recognised it as Liam's sword. She slowly started to turn the sword towards him, when he pressed the blade harder against her throat, growling "Drop it, Gwendolyn."

Gwen closed her eyes, blocking off all contact. Even though Raven was still in front of her, and her body forcibly pressed against Liam's with a sword at her throat, they were no longer there. All that was there was the white space in their minds that herself and Ethan shared. She just hoped Ethan would be there too.

"Ethan?" Gwen asked, still in the white space. "Ethan are you there?" To anyone else looking at her, it would appear that she was ignoring them. "Ethan I need you."

"Ethan! Ethan it's me! Come into the white space!"

Gwen ran up and tackled him in a huge hug. "Ethan! Oh Ethan!" She dropped down from his taller-than-her figure. "Are you OK?"
