The Silver kingdom shined with its ever gleaming silver, shining with all of its glory. Two rulers and their respective bodyguards were reunited over the watchful eye of the sun. All sitting gracefully on a silver table that spoke of ancient times. These two specific rulers were friend faith, dare I say. They were their exact counterpart to one another as rulers, yet their friendship was like no other seen before. A unbreakable bond that would most likely last forever. "Sigh, I could almost say that this kingdom is growing on me." Golden Cheese blurted out, a soft smile playing on her lips. Both bodyguards gave a soft gaze at the Queen, seeing what truly laid on her mind. "Oh my cheese, I love this kingdom with literally my whole heart....I should maybe even ask to take this land as my own and visit my friend every day...." The Golden Queen thought, deep in thought of ways she could make her greedy desire come true.
Both of the bodyguards had a blessing of being able to read, but just a small fragment of some people's thoughts. A small blessing for being a one with the kingdom that they protected with the whole heart. Yet, despite the similarities that these bodyguards had in common... they were probably the worst enemies in history... It had nothing to do with the difference in their cultures, ruler, or climate. Just their true personality was there to hate. Their relationship was literally the opposite of their rulers, so bad, that the King and Queen were very aware of his situation.
"I am delighted to hear, my dear friend. Here is a place of calmness and peacefulness." Elder Faerie's voice came in soft, a soothing melody that could make someone so bitter, fall in a deep slumber. At hearing this words, Burnt Cheese now looked at the ruler of silver, his gaze hard on him as he tried to make a thought of his true will. "I know she is lying... nothing can compare to Golden City, where sorrow and sadness aren't meant by the people.." Elder Faerie's thought almost gave the stoic Burnt Cheese a small frown of disappointment from the counterpart king's point of view towards his cherished homeland.
Burnt cheese gave an exhausted sigh, giving a quick glare at the bodyguard, which was adorned in silver from head to toe. By this most jaw-dropping surprise, the ever so overprotective knight was giving him the death stare that spoke of his last days in this kingdom of silver. At least it felt like it.
"Why is this Anubis looking ahh think he is to look at his majesty like that!? Stupid little -" Burnt Cheese jaw dropped at how the small thought that came out of his opposing knight. Even he himself was a bit pissed now that he had heard even more of those negative statements between them. To be totally honest, there have been many disagreements and arguments before in the pass. This was not the first time he had heard something bad coming from none other than the silver knight commander. "Looks like the so-called untouchable silver commander has a problem with staring at the things he wished to be..." Burnt Cheese let his mind fill with negative comments that he could ever think of in his lifetime. Plus, he had learned more and more from his lover, Smoked Cheese, he had taught him well. Mercurial Knight growled quietly as seeing him returning with something bad as well. This conversion was not said by the action of speaking, but it was there alright! And it had no ideas of stopping anytime soon.
Both men stared at each other, tension glowing between them in a silent manner. Only thoughts were the form of communication, which also came out of their heads as a way to defend and insult each other at the same time. Soon enough, the Queen and King had already caught on this odd argument between them. "Uhm. Mercurial Knight? Burnt Cheese? Are you gentlemen, alright?", "What the sigma are these guys doing, bro..." Elder Faerie murmured quietly as he looked from his own bodyguard to the other, waiting for an answer from there. "HEY! PAY ATTENTION WHEN THE KING IS SPEAKING!" "OH MY CHEESE THIS MONKEYS GRRR.." Golden Cheese snapped at both of them, snapping her finger in an aggressive manner to put some sort of sense into them.
Upon hearing the unexpected shout from the Golden Queen herself, quickly, the men looked back at both of the rulers. The worried ruler and the angry ruler. "We are deeply sorry, your majesties...” Mercurial Knight was the first to stand and bow down deeply, then came Burnt Cheese as well, doing such as Mercurial Knight did so. Regret and foolishness washed over them like a wave on the warm, dry sand.
"Good. You too really need to stop with this thing you got going on here. Me and Elder Faerie don't wanna see any of this anymore. Understand!?" "I swear to God one day I'm gonna leave these two on the street.." Golden Cheese marked, scoffing as she spoke on her last statement. "Yes, your majesty!" Both bodyguards said in unison. "There, there, golden. Not to be so harsh on them. Give them some time to think." "Argh.. she really could've done that earlier.." Elder Faerie shook his hand, showing both men to sit back down. They sat down sheepishly from the whole scene that they had created, feeling absolutely stupid. Yet, their argument had not yet come to an end yet.
A silence threw upon them, leaving only the silent noise of Elder Faerie drinking tea and Golden Cheese tapped her finger on the table. It was a awkward aftermath of the yelling that was in the atmosphere not even a minute ago. It seemed like the two rulers were deep in thought with something, yet the knights wouldn't dare to look more into their thought anymore. Just out of pure fear.
"Honestly, I think we should just leave you here and make you talk about your relationship with each other." "Heh.. I just got the best idea ever known to mankind.. 😈 😈" Golden Cheese stated once more, standing up as she held Elder Faerie's arm, pushing him up to stand up as well. "Golden? What is the meaning of this?" Elder Faerie raised a curious eyebrow at her, yet letting himself be held in the arms of the golden goddess that people yearned to be held in. "Let's leave these two alone to talk it out, plus I have something important to discuss with you, butterfly. Let us go to your palace for once now."I am literally the best and smartest lady that has blessed her presence here. I WILL COOK!!🥩🍖" Golden Cheese pushed the delicate Faerie out from the garden, making him move forward without mercy whatsoever. "wait wait no no no I can't leave my pookie wookie cookie lookie bookie bear alone no no no MERUCRIAL KNIGHTTAHHH" Elder Faerie yelped as Golden Cheese gripped the Faerie, throwing the faerie on her shoulder, flying up the sky to make no sort of escape for him.
The bodyguards sat in complete silence. The hatred for one another was so unbearable that they would not even want to hear each other's voice whatsoever. Even so, they both felt like they were honest, to God, opinions are gonna need to be said either way... "Who do you even think you are?" “This guy is crazy.. oh, my cheese..." Burnt Cheese started, his tone low and threatening, but this was simply to match for the commander of the silver knights. "I should be asking you that, you got a staring problem with his majesty, Elder Faerie!?" "Ugh. These golden city members for real got no respect." Mercurial Knight stood up, his silver wings now spread wide. An action to show his anger.... a testament to show how ready he was for a battle.
"I don't. I would never hate my Queen's best friend.” “Someone needs to get his ruler to put an end to this pathetic guy." Burnt Cheese snarled at the silver knight, also standing up. Burnt Cheese clutched his tanned fists, his glare full of true anger that he had not felt in a while. "Don't act all so big and mysterious! You aren't gonna do anything, you smelly, green rotting, fly attracting, over cooked, expiring cheese! You are literally so cheesy..." "LOL I AM COOKING THIS ''KNIGHT' UP." Mercurial Knight laughed, not even his own ruler, Elder Faerie, had experienced him laughing since the day he became a knight. Yet, he was not there to witness it.
Burnt Cheese's face spoke of being offended by such a childish insult from one his biggest opp. How could he just take it all like that? If it doesn't involve a physical fight, then he will gladly give the other man a fight with words. "Oh nah, don't start with all of your yapping. You rusting, discolored, darkened, decomposing, chunk of silver. I bet I could use the silver weapon of yours as a spoon for my breakfast." "This monkey can not be talking when he looks like Guy Diamond from trolls.. 💀" Burnt Cheese added without any type of hesitation, his words seeming almost true in a way. "SHUT UP I'LL COOK YOU UP AND PUT YOU IN A QUESADILLA!!!1" Mercurial Knight yelled out, now suddenly becoming impatient with this useless, pathetic excuse for a fight. He was yearning to show the man in front of him, the true strength of the silver kingdom. "I'M GONNA BEND YOU IN HALF LIKE A WORTHLESS PIECE OF SILVERWARE!!" Burnt Cheese yelped back, his booming voice now loud as ever.
The two stood in silence for once, having a moment to make up their words first. "Let's set up some rules before we fight, lil bro." Mercurial Knight raised an eyebrow, his face irritated. "Go ahead," Burnt Cheese crossed his arms, waiting for the faerie to let out his statement. "Don't pull on my wings." Mercurial Knight growled as he spoke, the thought alone of that brought him into a dis-pleasured state. "Alright. If I may add on, only hands. No weapons." Burnt Cheese added on, motioning with his hand to keep going.
"Last rule, no mercy." Without any more waiting, Mercurial Knight curled up his fist tighter, aiming for the Egyptian's cheek. Mercurial Knight put almost all of his force into the unexpected assault, making sure to do some sort of damage to Burnt Cheese. The punch alone made Burnt Cheese's head whip to the other side, his head slowly turning to see the silver knight once more. The red mark on his left cheek was a noticeable display to his action, and he was not having it. Their eyes locked in, both filled with readiness in for the fight. Burnt Cheese soon took action, one of his calloused hands gripping the faerie's silver armor, and the other returned the punch that originally hit him first. Mercurial Knight growled at the sharp, burning pain, yet tackled the other bodyguard that even dared to hit him in the first place.
Their bodies hit the ground full of grass, a whole thud that echoed throughout the tranquil of the forest around them. Both groaned yet kept on picking at each other. Burnt Cheese threw his hands on Mercurial Knight's hair, pulling and tugging to get him off of him. "ARGH!! YOU BASTARD!" Mercurial Knight cried out, his hands now focused to get his opp's hands off of his glorious hair. "YOU WANTED TO FIGHT. SO NOW SQUARE UP." Burnt Cheese shouted out, his usually stern face now furious as ever.
Their fists collided together, sending a shock wave of energy through their bodies. It was like watching two bulls in a ring, except one was an emotionless guy covered in silver armor, and the other was a burnt and blunt cheese toastie… "I can't believe this man is dumb enough to fight the silver knight commander..." Mercurial Knight thought in disbelief, his eyes never leaving Burnt Cheese's fiery ones. Burnt Cheese had a smug smile on his face, feeling like he had the upper hand. "Oh, this is gonna be so satisfying."
The silver knight tried to push himself up, but Burnt Cheese was too heavy. He rolled over and managed to get on top of the faerie, pinning him down with his bulk. "I'm gonna turn you into a three cheese panini. Don't play." Mercurial Knight said, his teeth clenched together in determination. Mercurial Knight felt a hot breath on his face, and for a second, he was reminded of the baked cheese his dear king used to make. The thought made him sick.
They wrestled on the ground, both equally strong. Burnt Cheese threw a punch that was aimed for Mercurial Knight's face, but the faerie was quick. He caught the fist in mid-air with a metallic clang and twisted it away. The Egyptian's cheek muscles tightened as he took the opportunity to headbutt the knight. Mercurial Knight saw stars and felt the heat of the sun on his forehead. "What the..." He thought, trying to shake off the dizziness.
The knight's silver armor scraped against the delicate flowers that graced his homeland, as he managed to twist and throw Burnt Cheese off. They both stumbled to their feet, panting heavily. Mercurial Knight's eyes searched for an advantage. He noticed how Burnt Cheese was already rubbing his injuries, a way to calm himself down. "Looks like you're already halfway to your demise," he quipped, charging forward. Burnt Cheese roared back, fists flying.
Their battle was a dance of power and will, each blow thrown with the intention to dominate. The ground trembled beneath their feet, and the birds in the nearby trees took flight in alarm. They grappled, each trying to overpower the other. The air was thick with the scent of sweat and grass as their fists met again and again. It was a brutal, jaw-dropping scene to witness in the silver kingdom …
“Golden…. That must have been one of your worst ideas you've done in history. What the actual skibidi are you yapping about..?” Elder Faerie utter in disbelief, even seeing aside his cup of tea he usually refused to let go. “What? I wanna see those two box it out likeee..” Golden Cheese fluttered her wings as she spoke.
Turns out, meanwhile Mercurial Knight and Burnt Cheese were pulling each other's head off, their rulers were enjoying a cup of tea while they were at it. Golden Cheese explained why she kidnapped Elder Faerie in the first place, not letting him go with his beloved silver knight. She let her mouth yap all she wanted to, explaining how she wanted to see how their bodyguards would fight it out. Then, honestly, see which kingdom would come out successful.
“Sigh.. Sometimes I wonder why I even befriended you. We both know our kingdoms are good and bad in their own ways. Leave those pobrecitos caballeros en paz! (leave those poor knights alone!)” Elder Faerie frowned, as he stood up, his shimmering wings behind him swaying with his movement. “And where exactly do you think you are going?” Golden Cheese said as she also stood with the faerie, Elder Faerie looked around his silver palace. As if he were looking around to see if anyone else was in the sun room with him. “I think it’s time to check up on them, don’t you think? What if they literally killed each other while in the process of a useless fight that was only to see who’s kingdom was a so-called, best kingdom?” Elder Faerie groaned, almost seeming so annoyed that his best friend had gotten him into a conflict that was clearly between the bodyguard only.
Golden Cheese thought for a moment, now actually taking time to think about what she had done. “Alright, alright.. I suppose you do have some sort of point..but I put my money on Burnt Cheese!” Golden Cheese gave a joyful laugh, flying out a window, beckoning with her hands to come with her. “And I’m gonna put tape on your mouth to make you shut up.” Elder Faerie stated, now his own butterfly wings spreading wide to follow his dear friend.
“Cough, cough.. Are you… are you done already!?” “oh the actual skibidi is this man still holding up!?” Mercurial Knight chuckled out, his hand coming in to wipe sweat off of his forehead. “This is just a warm up… cough…” “I'm actually gonna pass out.. This fight is so unreal..” Burnt Cheese growled back, he was also sweating like crazy. The bodyguards had been fighting non-stop for a couple of minutes now, and they were now absolutely tired. Both men were injured in all ways, their bodies pleaded to just stop but their mouths just kept on bickering. “Silver knights of the legendary silver tree don’t give up so easily!” “Could reallllyyy go for some tacos al pastor..” Mercurial Knight stated firmly, as he slowly tried to stand up, slowly but surely. “Keep boasting if that’s what makes you keep going..” “Damn how fat is he!?!?” Burnt Cheese rolled his eyes, yet his knee now mimicked Mercurial Knight’s, starting to stand up with his counterpart.
While they continued their bickering, Golden Cheese and Elder Faerie were looking from afar. “Just how pathetic can these two cabezas marros be?” Elder Faerie gigled, letting his Spanish roll off of his tongue as he spoke. “I told you this would be entertaining.” Golden Cheese whispered back, a grinned gracing her lips. “Let's go and break them up, I’ll treat their wounds and you can yell at them.” Elder Faerie nodded as he spoke, now making his way to the battlefield that the knight created for themselves. “So be it.” Golden Cheese laughed, following the faerie with his steps. Both of the bodyguards were too focused on each other's gaze to even bother to see their ruler slowly creeping up on them, both of the bodyguard’s eyes were heavy, yet never looked away from each other. “I hate you…” Mercurial Knight murmured, he felt his body slowly going down, but let it go down on its own this time. “I hate you more..” Burnt Cheese mumbled back.
THUD!
“WHAT IN THE SKIBIDI ALPHA!?” Elder Faerie screamed out, now seeing the bodyguards on the floor, passed out completely. “BHAHAAH THIS IS SO NOT REAL!!!” Golden Cheese yelped out a laugh, her wings fluttering with every chuckle that she gave. Despite this act, Elder Faerie seemed completely traumatized, he looked at Mercurial Knight then at Burnt Cheese, giving out sighs of disbelief. He quickly ran up to his respective bodyguard, holding him in a gentle manner. “I don’t think they died… unfortunately.. I suppose they passed out from exhaustion. I swear to the silver tree that these two are getting the whooping they deserve.” Elder Faerie pouted, such trust he had put on him, just to fight another man and pass out? Embrassingggg!! “Well said, butterfly! I will make sure that happens once I am back in the Golden city.” Golden Cheese added on to her friend's yapping. It sure has been a while since she had let out a true and genuine laugh. This was surely gonna be one of the days to remember.
