Things had finally reached the point where he could no longer stick around. Even his mother, she who destroys entire towns because she's going insane, had heard the rumors, and all hell was going to break loose. It was time for the Saotome Final Technique! And Faroush knew exactly where to go. He had to go to Stormfist anyway, so there was no harm in leaving a few hours early. He could simply claim to be on business and everyone would leave him alone.
The best part, Faroush knew, was that he even had a way to escape! Moving into the shadows, the prince began moving down the hallways, making his way to the meeting room for the Queen's Knights. He and Lyon had discovered a hidden passage near the room years ago that led to a private dock. He had stored a small boat there that he could use to get away for a bit. Now, it was going to allow him to sail to Stormfist. Better then swimming, he thought.
As he passed the doors to the room, one of them suddenly opened and a hand grabbed his arm. "And where are you sneaking off to, Prince?"
"Ack!" Faroush's reply was elequint as he turned his attention to Kyle. "Well, I can tell you where I'm not going. I am not taking a secret boat to Stormfist where I can get away from my crazy sister and bodyguard so I can re-assert my manhood. Nope, not doing that. No siree."
Kyle raised an eyebrow. "Oh, really? Then where were you going?" It was clear that he didn't believe the Prince at all.
Faroush dropped his head. "Alright, fine. But you better not tell anyone!" The silver-hair teen glared at the knight.
"Not tell anyone?" Kyle asked. "Hmm...Stormfist is said to have some of the best brothels in the country. And I am a QUEENS Knight, meaning I certainly have to tell your mother right away..."
Faroush's eye twitched. The Ranma in him absolutely hated this, but he couldn't see a way around it. "Alright, what do you want?"
Kyle grinned in victory. "To come of course! I can even show you where the best brothels are! You'll be a man in no time!"
Faroush's eye continued to twitch. "Fine. Give me a minute." The Faroush side was able to analyze some of the problems the Ranma side had had in a different light. Quickly going to the large meeting table, he pulled out a pen and quickly scribbled a note.
Kyle, looking over his shoulder, raised an eyebrow as he read it.
Going to Stormfist. See you when I get back. Prince Faroush
Folding the note in half, Faroush scribbled Miakis's name on it. He definitely didn't want a woman scorned after his head. Ranma remembered all too well what that would me. Mallets and tables and fists. Oh my.

The next morning, the palace was in an uproar. The Prince was gone, and all hell was going to break loose.
