BACK		The Emperor's Daughter

By Sofie

Hey guys!
My name is Mark Feehily, and I’m 22 years old. Well, I don’t think I need more presentation – You all know who I am!
You’ve probably heard of all the times I’ve made mistakes, but this time I’ve really screwed up, and I need your help!

As always, I met a girl. Of course, I met the perfect girl in a totally different country. Okay, it’s a completely different situation, this time - I have to admit. You see, it was in Japan this time. We had to perform a bit in front of this big guy, who happened to be the emperor! That was big for us, but I had some other things to worry about. It’s kind of embarrassing, but I had a minor problem with my… Lower parts… No, not like that, I just… Had a little pain, that’s all!
It can happen to every one, okay? Stop judging me!!

That’s not the point. The point is this girl. The daughter of the emperor!! Way, she was SO beautiful! The first time I saw her, she had this entire white make up in her face, and she looked like a real princess! I fell in love! When we’d performed for the emperor, he was so impressed, that he offered us a place at the palace for a week! You read that? We got to live at a palace for a week! A real change, apart from that boring tour-bus…

Guess what! I got to live in the room beside the emperor’s daughter! That beautiful thing… Wow!

The real story starts, when I lay in my room… I was in huge pain!! I almost screamed!
Well, all these Japanese lads have a tradition! They share the same balcony! I shared with the emperor’s daughter, you see… She came walking in – Just like that! While I was… screaming, sweating, and such…
When I saw her, I sat up, but had to throw me down, because of the pain. She walked right over to me, and smiled. Man! Her hair was down, she had no make up on, and she was in her rope!
She sat down beside me, and I had no idea what to do! Then she TOUCHED my “pride”!! She really rubbed it, and as a guy, I…. Was happy, if you know what I mean!
I closed my eyes, and leaned back – but ONLY because of the pain!!
She let go, and the pain was gone. Luckily, so was my “happiness”…
She smiled. I smiled. Magical moment, I say. We kissed, oh what joy!
It was a long and passionate kiss, with tongue and all! It was a real pleasure!!!
Then she smiled, and left me again. Lying on the bed, sweating. ALL MY PAIN WAS GONE!!

When I woke up the next morning, I jumped around the palace of happiness!! (Not like that, would you get over it??) Suddenly I ran right into the big stomach of the emperor! ARGH!! I apologized, but he told me to go with him. Oh, I thought I was going to die!
But he simply told me, that his daughter loved me. I mean, I was confused! Who tells her dad that? Then he said that she hadn’t said it, he could just see it on her face. And he knew I loved her too.
How could I say no?
So he said, that in Japan, they had a tradition. A man and woman can’t be together; if the man can’t tell her that he loves her. Hey, that wouldn’t be a problem!!
Well… That was what I thought! The emperor told me exactly when and where… It was really creepy, discussing that with him! I mean, he was like twenty times bigger than me, and a very significant person! And there he was, telling me how to get his daughter. Well, as Louis always had told me, I had to follow their traditions! So I did as he said…almost!

The same evening, I laid on my bed, trying to find something on TV. Sadly, nothing was on. So I knew I had to do it! I went to the balcony and over to her window! It was open, of course (Of course?? Yeah, yeah…). I stepped in, and heard her stand in the shower. She yelled to me, that I should just take a seat. How she knew who I was? Don’t ask, it’s confusing enough as it is! Then suddenly – the door opens – my jaw hits the floor!! She wore a rope, all right, but I think she’d “forgotten” to tie it! It was wide-open, guys! But as long as it didn’t bother her, I didn’t let it bother me…(What?! I’m a guy!!). Then she sat down in front of me and smiled. How could she possibly smile at me, when she was dressed like that? Well, I blushed (Way to go, Mark!!), and smiled back. I really tried hard to keep my eyes at her face!! Then she just asked me, like that, if I was planning on telling her that day. I was like, What?! She said that she wanted me to say that I loved her!! Hello! No Irish girls would ever do like that, I promise you! So I took her hand, and told her that I loved her! She smiled, and stood up. She just PULLED me near, and kissed me! I’m telling you, I could have arrested her for rape by that kiss! Well, I just let her! Of course, I didn’t love her so much! I mean, I had a little crush, but it wasn’t as serious. Well, her DAD came bursting in trough the door, and clapped. He hugged her and me, and said congratulations. I was like Wait Up! What’s up?? Then the big guy (The emperor…) dragged me out on the balcony and offered me a cigar (I do not smoke!!), while he was shaking my hand. I didn’t have to move it, cause I was shaking already. Well, they finally let me go to my room, and I remembered to lock the door that time!

I went to sleep, trying to forget everything, but I didn’t get much sleep, before Nicky and Shane came yelling trough the door! I was complaining, but they were yelling at me for getting married…GETTING MARRIED?! I just screamed. They said that the emperor was preparing a wedding downstairs for his daughter and me!! I rushed down, and saw that everything was in total wedding style. I had to DRAG the emperor outside, and ask for an explanation! He said, that because his daughter had “cured” me, I owed her my life! I tried to blackmail him with cars, money and other stuff, but he said that no money could buy my heart!! Argh!! I said that I was simply denying – Then he laughed and said, that then there was only one option left – and pointed at a really big guy – with a sword!! Yaiks!! I just nodded and said that well; we should get the wedding started! What was I to do?? I hurried to tell the other lads… Bryan laughed, but the others were showing loads of support! Yeah right, do you believe that?!
Well, they realised that it was serious, and started discussing whether the fans would enjoy me as an emperor or not… Hello, Just because I’m a guy it doesn’t mean that I don’t have feelings!!
Well, I found out about another tradition! He, he, it’s up to you if you wanna call it bad or good…

I came into my room, after talking to the lads! ARGH! Right there on the floor, was standing a huge bed, with like 10 bug sword-guys!! But on the bed…you’re not gonna believe me on this one… Lied the emperor’s daughter – SOOO NAKED!! I was about to run out of the room, but my curiosity made me stay (Not like that!!!). So the emperor came over to me, and told me that I had to take the girls fucking virginity!! I was like WITH THEESE GUYS AROUND?! He told me that I had to do it right, or else they would take my life! You know I can’t do it with so much pressure, so I froze! One of the guys started ripping of my shirt, and THEN I started to run! I ran and ran, with 10 sword-guys after me!! I ran to Shane’s room, and lock the door after me! Then I ran out to the balcony and into Bryan’s room, to lock his door too! I explained everything to them, and after laughing; they helped me over their balcony to Kian and Nicky’s. Then I told them everything, while locking their doors. I heard the sword-guys break into Shane’s room, and search trough the room! He yelled in Irish that we had to run away! Bryan came running into Kian's room, and within seconds Shane had jumped over to the same balcony. When we were all gathered, we climbed down the balcony, and out to our tourbus! We quickly drove of, with loads of sword-guys after us. I looked out the window, and got to see a naked emperor’s daughter stand with tears in her eyes.

Well… The case is, that we got away! But we had to stay over a night in the tourbus, to go home the next morning! Well, when we drove of the next morning, we had to cross the boarder! But when the boarder-guy saw my pass, he had HIS sword-guys to arrest me!! Can you believe it?! They dragged me back to the emperor, and… Well… Now I’m sitting in my room, scared as hell – HELP!! It’s my wedding day!! The sword-guys have surrounded my room, in case I feel like running away!! The girl is waiting downstairs, while I’m getting ready! I’m writing this with a pencil on 1 inch! Help!! Help!! Call for help!! I can’t do anything!! I’m too young to get married, but still too young to die!! Help!! Help!! S.O.S!! HELP!! They’re coming… Help!!

Love,
