The Lightning kingdom is one of the most advance kingdoms in technology an its people are highly intelligent. Though there is one thing this kingdom doesn't know. They don't know a single thing about their heir. The Queen hasn't even told them the gender of the heir and so many people want the heir to be female while others hope they're male. The only ones in the kingdom that know of the gender of the heir are the castle workers and the Queen. Right now the queen is getting ready and a guard plus a servant walk up to her as she finishes her makeup. "Your majesty. We have everything prepared" the guard said as he bowed. "Thank you. We are getting my son today" she replied with a large smile reaching her electric blue eyes.











On the local farm lived an old couple with a young teen. These people are know as the Walkers. They love to create things and help people out. They're known as the kindest family around. Right now the young teen is planting flowers. His name is Jayden or Jay for short. "You are my sunshine~ My only sunshine~ You make me happy, when I'm down~" he sang as he continued to plant flowers. Jay continues to sing as he plants, when he notices an expensive car, a limo to be exact pulling up to the farmer. Before Jay could see who it was, his parents called for him. He quickly heads inside to his mom and dad. "Ma? Pa? Who's the car outside belong too?" Jay ask when he approaches his parents. "Jay sweetie, we have something to tell you." Enda says as she looks at Jay with a sad expression. Her Husband Ed has an expression on his face mirroring hers. "What's wrong?" Jay questioned wondering why his parents looked so sad. The next set of words that came from his mom's mouth caused his world to spiral and shatter. "Jay you're adopted. We wanted to tell you sooner but we couldn't. We are so, so sorry that we lied to you about who you really are. Your real mother wanted you to learn about hardships and proper work ethics, before you knew who you really are. The car outside is your mother's and she is coming right now to talk to you." Edna explained as tears run down her face that reflects sorrow. Her husband's face mirrors hers just he not crying. Before Jay could even close his mouth there was a knock at the door. Both Ed and Edna went to answer it, leaving Jay standing there frozen in shock and confusion.

JAY

When my 'parents' went to answer the door, a million thoughts came rushing through my head at once. 'Why did my real mother do this?' 'Why couldn't they tell me sooner?' 'Who am I really?' 'Why'd I have to live here before knowing who I truly am?' As these thoughts continue to plague my mind as I hear footsteps enter the room. I raise my head from the floor to see my foster parents and the Queen in the door way with a few guards plus servants behind her. I quickly kneel to the ground. "Your-r ma-ajesty. Go-ood e-evening." I stutter out as I hear her heels click across the our wood floors as she walks towards me. "Jayden get up. You don't need to bow to me child. Your my son and the prince. You never need to bow to me." She says placing her palm under my chin, making me look up to her smiling face. She had small tears in the corner of her eyes as she looks down at me. I slowly get up and when I do she pulls me into a hug and whispered to me "I've missed you Jayden. I truly am happy to have you back." I return her hug as she tightens her grip. When we finally let go of each other I take a good look at her. She has long blonde that shines from the sun leaking through the house's windows and there isn't a single gray hair insight. Her skin match mines in color, as does her eyes. "So that's where my eyes came from" I hear my voice say before I even process my thoughts. As I gain an embarrassed look my real mother laughs and I join her. We stop our laughter when we hear voice and flashing lights fill my vision. We all turn to look out the window to see hordes of paparazzi and press outside. "I know this maybe a bit much to ask but can we bring my foster family with us?" I ask with a shaky voice as the guards and servants deal with the press. "Dear, I was gonna do the anyways. Lets go and try to hide your faces." She answers placing on a pair of shades and struts to the limo. We follow her as we try to keep our faces hidden. Many questions were being thrown our way. "Who are you to the Queen?" "What's your relationship with the royal family?" "Who are you?" We ignore all the questions as we make it inside and begin to drive away from all the chaos. "Hey mom, will our lives ever be normal again?" I ask as I watch my old home disappear in the distance. "Well your to be the next King and your foster parents members in your future counsel, so my dear. Your lives will never be the same, but what's wrong with some change?" She answers with a happy and light tone. I look from her to Ma to Pa then back out the window and smile. "Your right, change can be a good thing." With my simple farm life was turned upside down. My phone began to buzz so I checked it. What I saw terrified me. My family must have seen my horrified face, cause they started to ask what's wrong. I show my phone screen to them. Right in bright red letters said "The Queen Was Spotted Living The Local Farm With A Boy And Two Adults. Have We Got A Royal Affair Happening Or Is The Missing Heir Secret About To Be Revealed?" We all looked at each other with one though on our minds. 'Oh hoe right they are.'
