The forgotten kingdom

Chapter 8

Aria walked into a huge opening it had houses and fields with crops. When people saw them walk by, they all dropped to their knees and bowed.

"Welcome home your majesty."

They said. Aria's hand tighten around Luche's hand. They walked up to a larger house and Brian opened the door to allow her inside. When she walked in her eyes met with an older man his hair was gray.

"Pappa you made out as well." He limped over to her and hugged her.

"My beautiful princess you look just like your mother. Come we have much to talk about."

Aria and Luche spent the next three days talking and catching up. She was sitting in the room she was shone. She heard a knock and went to open it.

"Hey, baby." She let Luche in and closed her door.

"How are you doing Aria?" she sat next to him at the foot of the bed and laid her head on his shoulder. Luche puts his arm around her waist and lays back on the bed taking her with him.

"Luche it's a lot to take in. so much was lost because I had a calling. I lost my family. Then 25 years later find out my older brother and father have been alive this whole time. Then to find out they have been watching me this whole time waiting for me to return to bring peace."

He didn't know what to say or do to help her.

"They all want me to lead them in taking this place back. I don't know how to lead an army. I don't know how to run a kingdom." Luche looked down at her.

"Aria your wrong." She looked up at him in surprise.

"You are second in command of one of the greatest armies. You pretty much lead them. Yes, Drautos is the captain but we all look to you. You're the one out in the field with the rest of us. As for ruling a kingdom, I don't think anyone is really ready for that. They probably learn as they go."

She smiled at him.

"You always know what to say." He laughed.

"No baby I just tell you the truth. You will do fine. You have been trained by two of the greatest warriors. Just remember what they taught you. When it comes time, all will fall into place and you will know what to do. Follow your heart baby."

She woke up and decided to walk around. She saw her brother in the training yard and walked over to him.

"So, if I remember right you used to be the best warrior. When I was younger, I would hear people talk about how good you were. So, would you like to spare?"

he raised his eyes at her.

"I would hate to scratch that pretty face little sister." She laughed at this.

"That's if you can even get close enough." Her brother grinned as he picked up his sword. She summoned hers and saw his eyes widen a little. She warped at him knocking him on his butt.

"Hey." She laughed and helped him up.

"What does your little sister got some moves."

She jokes. The two-start sparing. No one sees the two men watching from the upstairs balcony.

"She is very good." Luche looked at her father.

"Yes, she is second in command of your brother's army. I have to ask how come her brothers can't use the royal arms and warp like her?" the man sighs.
