.03///Starry-Eyed
4 years later...
Hyoyeon opened her eyes as pain creeped in her head, causing her to have a headache. The sounds of metal clashing against metal and the eruption of shouts could be heard outside, and Hyoyeon was getting sick of it, literally.
"Oh Hyoyeon~"
Great, more chaos ensues.
She glared at her master, who was unfazed and still smirking. Suddenly, her expression turned cold. "Daddy wants to see you."
What does he want?
Every single time she saw Master Jung, she thought of the time when he killed her parents. That bloody knife in his hand, his disgustingly adorable voice, and his wicked smile symbolized evil.
Hyoyeon nodded and left the room, going to the other side of the palace, which was where Master Jung's office was located. As she took a stroll inside the gigantic palace, the headache worsened once she heard the clinking of metal.
She finally stood outside the door, but she hesitated before knocking. "Come in," Master Jung's voice rang.
Okay, I can do this.
Hyoyeon opened the door, stepping in the room. Master Jung smiled and welcomed Hyoyeon.
"Hyoyeon, there is something important I have to tell you."
Well, this is different.
=============================================
This is the most difficult thing I've ever had to do as a knight.
Sooyoung looked up at the large palace in front of her. She and the other knights were going to invade this place.
Two knights approached Sooyoung, their swords out and ready to fight. Sooyoung narrowed her eyes and whipped out her sword from behind. One knight made the first move on Sooyoung, but she blocked herself with both her shield and sword. There was no way she could take on two knights, not now. She had one goal to do.
Two other knights fought alongside Sooyoung. One of them gave her a look for her to carry on with their plan. Sooyoung nodded and, along with the five other knights, barged into the palace.
Servants and slaves stared at them, their mouths agape and running all over the place.
Sooyoung and the knights split up into various sections of the palace, the enemy's knights popping up out of nowhere. Sooyoung was thankful she had prepared herself earlier.
She punctured the knight in the heart, pulling out the sword from his blood-stained chest. "Aish, my sword's covered in blood." she muttered, putting her sword in its case and walking down the long hall with another knight following her.
"Soo, I see something." the knight said, pointing at an object. "Ah, really?" Sooyoung replied in her deep voice, looking at the object.
JESSICA.
Sooyoung paused and looked at the nameplate on the door frame.
She must be Jung's daughter.
She turned the doorknob, which wouldn't budge. Sooyoung sighed as she stepped back and kicked the door.
She noticed two girls. One had an icy expression and gripping onto the other girl, who seemed to be a slave.
"You're coming with us," the leader growled, grabbing Jessica's arm. "Soo, get the slave."
Sooyoung looked at him, confused. "But, sir, this is not what we had planned."
The leader gave her a look, and Sooyoung gulped. "Yes sir." she obliged and grabbed the slave's wrist, who winced. She looked down and realized it was covered in bruises.
This is terrible...who would do such a thing?
She wrapped the slave's arm around her shoulder. "Now listen to me," she directed. "We're going to get you out of here. All you have to do is run." The slave nodded, a smile brightening her features.
She's such a beautiful girl, she doesn't deserve to be in such a terrible environment.
They ran, following the leader. Sooyoung took a shortcut outside of the palace to avoid the chaotic mess outside. The leader also took a different shortcut as well.
The duo reached the village, the leader and Jessica following after them. She carefully removed Hyoyeon's arm from her shoulder.
"Soo, I need you to take her with you and your friends." The leader ordered, bringing the icy girl towards Sooyoung. "Okay, sir." she replied, grabbing her by the wrist.
"Take care of the captives during our battle, okay?" "Yes sir," Sooyoung smiled and gave a thumbs up. "I will." The leader sped off towards the region.
"Why the hell are we here?" Jessica snapped. Sooyoung ignored her question; she was definitely keeping the slave. "You'll be staying with one of my friends." she stated, knocking on the door.
"Sooyoung, back so soon?" Yuri raised an eyebrow as she answered the door. "Yuri, this is Jessica." Sooyoung introduced. "We captured her and the slave...uh, what's your name?" She looked at the slave.
"Her name is Hyoyeon," Jessica replied with a scoff. "She's mute, so she can't speak. How pathetic."
Hyoyeon bit her lip, and Sooyoung turned to glare at Jessica. "Anyway," she refrained from yelling at the girl. "She'll be staying with you and Yoong for a while."
Yuri smiled. "I'm fine with that."
Good.
"Thanks, Yul." Sooyoung gave a sheepish smile. "No problem." Yuri welcomed the icy girl into the home and closed the door.
Meanwhile, Sooyoung took Hyoyeon to her own small home, which wasn't too far from Yuri and Yoona's. She entered the house and let Hyoyeon enter first, who was amazed.
"Please sit." Sooyoung directed, and Hyoyeon obeyed. "Give me your hand," Hyoyeon looked at her, still afraid. "Don't worry, I'm not going to harm you." Sooyoung smiled, taking Hyoyeon's hand.
"I'm here to save you."

My Vengeful Savior-.01///Rebellion
.01///Rebellion
Sooyoung should have known that asking her parents if she could begin training as a knight would be a mistake.
"Why not?" she asked sternly, her lips taut and pale. "You let Taeyeon do it!" She let out a heavy sigh. This wasn't the first time she asked her parents for permission; she waited each week, and then she would question them.
"Sooyoung, we don't want you to be harmed." her mother replied. Sooyoung looked at her father, but he nodded in agreement. "Taeyeon may have taught you all of those techniques, but you shall forget about them."
Sooyoung didn't understand. Taeyeon was her sister after all, she was the only person Sooyoung looked up to. Normally, she would let something like this go, but she couldn't take it anymore. She had to speak up.
"Why?" she questioned, her fists clenched. Her father let out a small sigh and muttered angrily, "You're not going to train as a knight, Sooyoung. End of story. Now leave."
"Fine, I will." Sooyoung snarled, pushing the door open as she exited the room. She headed straight for the kitchen, searching for nothing in particular.
"It didn't work, huh?" A girl with black hair asked, giving a sympathetic look. Sooyoung shook her head, grabbing a bottle of water. "I'm not going to give up though." The girl chuckled. "What's so funny Kwon Yuri?" Sooyoung raised an eyebrow. Yuri just shook her head in response.
"It's nothing," Yuri paused before continuing. "You do realize you can train without your parents noticing, right?"
Sooyoung almost coughed drinking her water. "Are you crazy?"
"Listen, you want to become a knight because the enemies killed Taeyeon, right?" Sooyoung slowly nodded. "Then just train, I'll cover for you." "Are you sure Yuri? You know there are servants around..." she whispered the last part as she noticed a few servants strolling by the kitchen. "Oh, I know," Yuri replied, smirking. "You know I come up with the perfect lies."
"Thanks Yul, I knew I could count on you." Sooyoung smiled. "No problem." Yuri giggled. "So, when are you planning on training?"
"I'm going to train tomorrow," Sooyoung replied. "Wish me luck." "Don't worry you'll do well," she looked up at the clock. "Looks like I have to go. Yoong is so going to prank me once I get home." She huffed and waved goodbye to Sooyoung, who was laughing. "Bye Yul!"
"Good luck!" Yuri shouted to Sooyoung, exiting the home afterwards.
Yuri has been Sooyoung's friend since they were ten. Yuri felt terrible when she found out that Taeyeon passed away, but she helped Sooyoung feel better and told her never to give up like Taeyeon had told Sooyoung before she left for battle.
In other words, Yuri was like Sooyoung's second older sister even though they were two months apart. She also had a younger sister named Yoona, who loves to joke around and play pranks. She also lived in a seperate home with Yoona, but they would visit their parents' house regularly, which wasn't too far away from them.
A knot formed in Sooyoung's stomach as she slept that night. She couldn't believe she was doing this, but it was for Taeyeon.
Yuri, I hope you come up with something good for tomorrow...
========================================================================
4 years later...
"So, how does it feel to turn nineteen, Almighty Knight?" Yuri teased. "It feels great," Sooyoung replied as she gulped down the last of her birthday cake. "Ah, I'm so full."
Ever since the day when Sooyoung started training with one of Taeyeon's former trainers, Yuri covered for her. Surprisingly, Sooyoung's parents and the servants were oblivious since they were too busy with their own activities.
Tomorrow, Sooyoung was to leave home and get prepared to go to the enemy's region. Her eyes narrowed at the sudden mention of the battle. She wasn't nervous since this was her fourth battle, but something about this battle was special; she couldn't put her finger on it.
"Are you going to miss home?" Yuri's voice interrupted her thoughts, making her jump. "Yeah," she said, already reminiscing the old times as usual. "You should come with me." she suggested. Yuri shrugged. "I don't know, Sooyoung-" "You can bring Yoong with you," Sooyoung interrupted. "You two can stay in a nearby village." Yuri hesitated before making her decision, "Okay, it will be a good experience."
Sooyoung grinned. "Alright, tell Yoong about this, and I'll come over to your house at 3 AM as we are set to leave a few minutes later." Yuri laughed, nodding. "Okay, Almighty Knight."
Sooyoung dreamt about Taeyeon for the billionth time that night. Her dreams always contained Taeyeon's words, teachings, and various things they used to do when they were kids. Sooyoung was still amazed how she survived all these battles. In one of the dreams, Taeyeon had told Sooyoung that she wished her good luck for the upcoming battle, but she will experience something new during this battle.
Sooyoung shot up, turned on the lamp, and looked at the clock.
1:35 AM.
That was odd...what on Earth is Taeyeon talking about? Oh well, I should get ready.
Sooyoung opened the closet door, searching for her knight uniform. It took her a while to get dressed in her uniform. By that time, it was 2:45 AM. She had to get to Yuri's house quickly. She grabbed her tools, turned off the lights, and snuck out of the house.
"Kim Sooyoung, where do you think you're going?" Sooyoung groaned as the lights to the main hall were suddenly flicked on. She looked at the door.
So close...
"I'm leaving." she simply retorted, giving her father a stern look. "I have to leave, Father. Tell Mother I said goodbye."
With that, she left, heading over to Yuri's house. She didn't care about what her parents thought, what mattered the most was battling those other knights.
She saw Yuri and Yoona standing outside of their home, already packed. "I see you two are ready." Sooyoung said with a chuckle. "Of course, unnie," Yoona replied. "We're always prepared." "Whatever Yoong." Sooyoung stuck out her tongue.
"Let's go, they're waiting for us." She noticed the crowd of other knights and citizens prepared for their leave.
While they were heading to one of the villages, Sooyoung thought about the dream she had earlier. It was quite weird. The majority of the dreams she had was Taeyeon telling her about love. Then again, it was a dream.
"Ah, here's one of the villages!" Sooyoung pointed. "It's closer to the region, so Yuri, you and Yoong can stay here." "Unnie, it looks nice!" Yoona shouted. "Good luck Sooyoung." Yuri whispered, hugging Sooyoung before she ran off with Yoona.
Sooyoung waved goodbye before continuing the short walk. "Okay guys, you know what to do," Sooyoung put on her helmet, grabbing her sword. "Let's have a successful battle." The leader looked at Sooyoung and smiled. Sooyoung gave a slight nod.
It was time.
Sooyoung should have known that asking her parents if she could begin training as a knight would be a mistake.

My Vengeful Savior-.00///The Beginning
.00//The Beginning
Sooyoung bit her lip as she observed her sister in a knight's uniform, who was tying her hair up. Her sister's facial expression was unreadable, her eyes burning into the mirror. There was silence between them; an odd atmosphere took over the room.
"Sooyoung," her sister began, breaking the silence. "You do realize how much I love our region, right?" Sooyoung nodded, still looking at her sister's reflection in the mirror. She shuddered once those cold eyes landed on her. "You do know how much I love war, right?" Sooyoung nodded again, gulping. Her sister walked over to her bed, sitting next to Sooyoung. "You know I risked my gender and went by 'Taeri' to fight as a knight, right?" "Yes." Sooyoung murmured. Her sister smiled and took Sooyoung's hands. They were cold, yet warm.
"Don't ever forget me, Sooyoung," Her sister continued. "This is my first battle, and even though I may not make it-" "Don't say that!" Sooyoung hissed. The thought of her sister dying whilst in battle scared her. Her sister smiled. "I'll always remain in your heart."
"Taeyeon, your parents want to see you before you leave." The servant announced. Taeyeon looked at Sooyoung and said, "I'll make sure to think of you and the family during the battle. I love you. Don't ever give up." She then let go of Sooyoung's hands and exited the room.
Taeyeon...please be alright...
========================================================================
Months and days had passed.
Sooyoung began to get worried. It has been five months since Taeyeon left, yet the knights returned a week ago. There was news traveling around about the knights returning to their families, but Taeyeon never came back.
Sooyoung was in the middle of eating her ramen when the servants started running around from various places. She sighed and went back to eating, almost finished with her bowl. She was about to go to the kitchen, but a servant stopped her.
"I will take that for you, Sooyoung. Your parents want to see you." Sooyoung nodded, giving the servant the bowl. She headed for her parent's room.
She hoped to see Taeyeon again. She wanted to go back to calling her "Shorty" and teasing her. But then, Taeyeon's voice lingered in her mind.
...even though I may not make it, I'll always remain in your heart.
No. Taeyeon was in that room, ready to surprise her. Sooyoung stood at the door, her hand lightly grasping the doorknob. She quickly opened it, and her face fell.
Taeyeon wasn't in the room. Her mother sobbed quietly in her father's arms, who was trying to coax her.
"Come in Sooyoung, sit." Sooyoung obliged, sitting in a chair. She could tell this was bad news. "What's wrong?" she asked, her voice wavering. Her mother cried even harder, and Sooyoung began to be anxious. "What's wrong?" she repeated, this time a bit more stern.
"Taeyeon was injured during the battle," her father announced. "It turned out the wound was fatal, and she died."
Sooyoung didn't know how to respond.
"W-What?" she stammered, trying to recollect what she had just heard. "Taeyeon's dead?" Her parents nodded in response.
How could she be so oblivious? She knew something was wrong when the servants were running around. Once again, Taeyeon's last words she said to Sooyoung lingered in her mind.
Don't ever give up...
"Thanks for telling me," Sooyoung hugged her parents before leaving the room. "Even though she may not be with us, she'll still remain in our hearts." Her mother relaxed a bit after hearing that statement.
Once Sooyoung left the room, tears flowed down her cheeks. She ran to her room, slammed the door behind her, and crawled into her bed.
She was suddenly in a deep sleep, dreaming about all the memories she had with her sister. One dream was when Taeyeon wanted to become a knight, another was when Taeyeon also wanted Sooyoung to become a knight as well.
She opened her eyes and jolted, sitting up in her bed. She rubbed her eyes, wondering what time it was. She turned on the lamp to look at the clock on her wall.
It was 2:15 AM.
Before she went back to sleep, Sooyoung thought about her plan to take revenge on the enemies of her region.
She knew it was pretty easy, she had to train as a knight in order to do so.
And she was going to do that, for Taeyeon.
Sooyoung bit her lip as she observed her sister in a knight's uniform, who was tying her hair up. Her sister's facial expression was unreadable, her eyes burning into the mirror. There was silence between them; an odd atmosphere took over the room.
