Weiss Kreuz Food-tropolis Part 1: Crawford

By: Skylar Inari

Princess Crawford of the lush Kingdom of Fruitaliness stared moodily out of the star shaped window of Pineapple Castle.

I wasn't fair.

Princess Crawford sighed in dismay as cheerful kiwi-men frolicked past.

It wasn't his fault that he'd fallen in love with the Prince of Melonne, was it?

His mother had come from Melonne so why couldn't he have who he wished?

"But Crawfy-kins you can't have anybody at all! Let alone that long-haired, orange-haired freak of a watermelon."

"His name is Schuldrich, mother."

"I don't care what his name is or what a fine match you'd make. The fact of the matter is that you are a cantaloupe and can't-elope."

"But...what if we got married?" He had asked timidly, "You know, a big ceremony with tons of people and --"

"No! No! And NO!! " Yelled the Queen of Fruitaliness, her orange body swelling up in rage. "I'll not hear of my child getting married. Just think about how a marriage would affect the Kingdom! We'd be a complete disgrace and most likely be banned from the Council of Fruits! No one in this family has ever done anything but elope and you aren't going to break the tradition all over some stupid girly desire for a watermelon with orange hair! You're a disgrace!"

"But, Mother --!"

And that had been that.

No more sneaking off to see Schuldrich under the Strawberry Shake Fountain or even being able to create a small memory doll of him to repeat words that had been spoken during certain moments in the night.

Princess Crawford had been left with nothing. No love, no freedom, and no hope.

His mother had seen to that.

With a small smile that looked more akin to a bitter twist of the lips than an expression of joy, Crawford gazed with morbid delight at the sharpened blade in his hands.

It was made of sharpened pineapple leaves and would go through any fruit rind in existence.

Silently, the knife was drawn quickly across first one wrist then the other diagonally.

As Princess Crawford lost all life one last thought flitted across his mind:

Cantaloupes can't-elope, but they can die.
