((RP Between Phillis and I. **POST-WAR**))

Alice snuck through the halls of th castle, in search of the kitchen. She had been living on the streets for a few weeks now. Her clothes and body were filthy, she was starving, and she had no idea where she was.
Why does this castle have to be so big? she thought. All I want it a little food..

[Phillis Von Christ]

Phillis had overheard that a mysterious young girl was found in the castle. The guards were going to remove her when Phillis decided he'd deal with it himself. He turned around the corner and spotted the girl. " What're you doing?" he asked, his voice was loud and intimidating though he was really just curious.

[Deleted]

Alice let out a little scream and spun around. She pressed herself against the wall and stared at the man in terror, shaking all over.
"I-I-I..." She stuttered, unable to get the words out.
Taking a deep breath, she whispered, "I'm so sorry sir.. I'm just so hungry! I.. I was trying to find some food.." Alice started to cry and crumpled to the floor, her hands over her face.

[Phillis Von Christ]

Phillis frowned a bit. "Didn't your parents teach you that stealing is bad?" he asked, a bit more gently.

[Deleted]

Alice wiped her face, smearing dirt, and looked up at the man. "Th-they did but.. M-my parents are dead.. They died in the war and I had no where else to go. So I've had to steal to survive.. I-I'm so sorry.." She started crying again.

[Phillis Von Christ]

Phillis couldn't help but feel bad for the girl. She quickly pulled her into a hug. "You poor baby! I'm so sorry to hear that!" he said. The girl reminded him much of his younger sister, Cecilia, and thinking of her in that position upset him. " It's alright, you can take anything you want. No child deserves to lead a terrible life."

[Deleted]

She gasped in surprise, then returned his hug after a moment. "R-really? You'll really let me have something to eat?" She asked in disbelief.

[Phillis Von Christ]

"Of course I will. I'm not going to let a poor little girl starve to death." Phillis said, letting the frail girl go. "Do you have a name?"

[Deleted]

Alice sniffled and smiled a little. "My name is Alice. What's yours?"

[Phillis Von Christ]

"I'm Phillis." he spoke proudly, smiling back at the girl.

[Deleted]

Alice's mouth dropped, and she stared at Phillis with wide eyes. "Phillis? As in Phillis Von Christ? You're the king?!" She was shocked; she had never seen the king before, and now he was standing right in front of her.
Oh my gosh.. The king hugged me.. She though excitedly. Then, looking at his shirt, now covered in dirt from when he hugged her, she gasped in horror. Aah! I got dirt on the king!!

[Phillis Von Christ]

"Hmm.. Yep, that's me." Phillis said with a laugh. "Don't sweat it, kiddo." he said, pointing to his shirt. "My clothing has been through hell and back in this town. Dirt stains are much easier to get rid of than blood stains or something." he explained, trying to make her feel better.

He stood back up, extending his hand to help the girl up. " Lets go get you some food, alright?"

[Deleted]

She sighed in relief and took the king's hand. Standing, she grinned and said, "Ok!" then followed Phillis.

[Phillis Von Christ]

Phillis lead the girl into the castle kitchen, he opened the doors and waved to the workers. "Alright, you can have anything you want to!" he grinned.

[Deleted]

Seeing all the workers turn and stare at her, Alice squeaked and hid behind Phillis, her face bright red. She wasn't used to be around so many people, let alone having them all staring at her.

[Phillis Von Christ]

Phillis patted the young girls head. "Don't be so shy, these people won't hurt you." he laughed.

[Deleted]

Alice burried her head against Phillis' legs, her grip tightening on his pant legs. She squeezed her eyes shut, too scared to look at anyone.

[Phillis Von Christ]

Phillis laughed again, the girl wasn't going to open up any time soon. "Everyone, could you give us a moment, please?" he asked the kitchen staff, politely. They all nodded understandingly and left.

Phillis turned back to Alice. "Is this alright?"

[Deleted]

Alice peeked around Phillis and saw the kitchen empty. She took a step away from and looked down, blushing.
"Y-yes. I'm sorry; I don't mean to be a bother.." She said quietly.

[Phillis Von Christ]

"Nah, don't worry about it. I don't like any of them anyways." He said, as if to sound like a joke. But he was quite serious. He didn't like most of them. "Now, what do you feel like eating? We've got just about anything. Except for commoner food."
