Rebellious

Deep inside an endless desert,

past the lands where no one ever enters,

lies a mirage that hides a phantom castle...

A phantom castle,

home of the evil sorcerer Kezabor!

Wow! A phantom castle?!

What does this evil sorcerer look like?

Is he scary?

No one knows!

Kezabor sends his terrifying dragon out to steal unmarried beautiful princesses

and take them to his palace.

- Hey-hey! -

And not a single warrior can find the phantom castle

of the evil sorcerer

and save the kidnapped princesses.

Oh, yeah? If he tries to snatch me, he's gonna regret it!

Hi-yah! Whoa!

That's my rebel princess!

Whoa!

- How's it going? - Hi! Have a good day!

I've never seen so many ships in our harbor before!

They say suitors have been coming for you from all over the world.

Not for me, for my dad.

He doesn't believe a woman can rule a kingdom

and is ready to marry me off to the first guy who fits his idea of a warrior!

What do you want, Mina? For yourself?

I want to lead the Kingdom

and be with the man I love.

But what if you have to choose between the two?

Then this boat will really come in handy,

we'll just add a catapult or trebuchet to fight off anyone who chases after us.

Heh-heh. It's a shame my architecture degree didn't include marksmanship classes.

But I can definitely build us a catapult.

Ooh! Then I'll do all the shooting!

We make the perfect team!

So romantic!

Ronan, look!

Mina, will you mar...

Oh, no!

...ry me?

Yes!

Phew!

Oh, you!

You're totally in the zone today, Rogdai!

I'm on a real winning streak, Kabir.

I paid a visit to the King this afternoon.

By the look on his face,

I'd say I'm his number one draft pick to marry Mina!

Huh!

Oh!

Don't count on it.

You may have strength, but my Kingdom is in the top ten.

And once I marry Mina,

it will easily move up to the top three.

How could any girl say no to that?!

Take me to your Kingdom!

No, me!

I'll marry you!

No, mine!

But Mommy Dearest says...

Oh! Look, there's Mina now.

No, he's mine!

Who is she with?

With Ronan?!

Hmmph!

Well, well, well...

Who do we have here?

It's Ronan and Mina.

Shut up, Fa Chan, I know who they are.

Then why are you asking?!

What do you want, Rogdai?

Mina, as my future wife,

you really need to be more choosy about your friends.

The King's daughter should know better than to hang out with this bookworm.

- Hmm. - Or you may end up reading books yourself,

which is utterly pointless for a girl!

Unless it's a cookbook!

Mina, if you're lucky enough tomorrow and the King chooses me as your husband,

I will be far more charming than these two.

Ugh! Dream on,

I'm not marrying any of you!

Yeah. And you have no right to tell Mina what she should do!

Oh, look who's speaking here!

Mina's father will choose her destiny!

And you, Ronan, better be more careful!

After all, you've never held any weapons in your life.

It's not the same as holding a book!

You know, the strongest muscle in the body is the brain,

if you know how to flex it.

Deal, let's see how your brain does against my axe!

Stop!

Or I will tell my dad and you'll all get it!

If you bothered to read,

you'd know that baring weapons

in the presence of the King's daughter is punishable

by death!

All you do is hide behind her skirt!

Whatever.

C'mon, guys, let's go...

Punishable by death?

But that's nonsense!

How would they know? They don't read books.

- - I'll go and try

to discuss things with my dad.

Good luck!

Well, you know... whoa!

Our Princess sure is something else!

Excuse me!

Alright, very good. I'll hang that on this arch, and you...

Father!

Dad?!

Ah?! Ahh, Mina!

All this fuss has worn me out.

Yeah,

I know it's tradition for you to choose my future husband tomorrow.

That's what I wanted to discuss with you.

Rogdai, Kabir and Fa Chan's mother

have been asking me for your hand.

Ha! Hilarious!

Did they forget to ask me?

My opinion doesn't count?!

Mina, you are a Princess,

you know this is the way things are done.

But it's ridiculous!

What's more important to you

my happiness or some outdated custom?

Of course, your happiness.

Then let me marry Ronan!

He has proposed to me and...

I said yes!

Ronan is a good and clever young man,

but he's no warrior!

If any trouble comes,

he won't be able to protect you or the Kingdom!

A clever ruler is better than a strong one.

A clever AND strong ruler is even better.

I hear you've secretly stashed some things in your boat to make a getaway.

You won't need it.

You and Ronan shall have my blessing.

Really? Yay!

Thank you!

I hope I don't to live to regret this.

My dear friends!

Today is a great day!

Today, my only daughter Mina is to be married!

Hi!

Oh, yeah!

Your father is about to announce us.

Are you ready?

I was born ready!

Whoa.

Ah! What is that?!

Mina, run!

Look, it's a dragon!

There's Mina!

Ronan?!

Ronan!!!

C'mon!

You want a piece of me?!

Bring it on!

Let me go!

Ronan, help me!

Mina, hold on tight!

Oh!

That's gonna hurt.

Take my hand!

- Ronan! - Mina!

No!

Mina!

Mina was kidnapped by a dragon!

It was Kezabor.

The sorcerer.

Oh, this can't be true! She was such a nice girl.

My friends!

The evil sorcerer Kezabor has taken my only daughter.

Whoever rescues Mina,

will have her hand in marriage as well as the Kingdom!

A Kingdom for Mina!

I'll bring Mina back!

The Kingdom will be mine!

I, Kabir, will save Mina!

Fa Chan the Fearless will rescue the Princess!

What?! I will?

Yes, you will.

It's not everyday someone offers you a Kingdom.

Now go

and may the best man win!
