*María's POV*

Mama, Maya and I stood at the top of the Palace steps looking out at our army. Fearless men stood below us, all listening carefully to Papa's speech. They knew the risks. They knew they could die. Yet they still stood there, stood tall, heads high. They were about to leave everything they loved behind and they may not come back. Leaving their wives, children, sisters, mothers.....their families.

Tears started to well up in my eyes at the sight before me, Mama must have noticed this as she carefully pulled me closer to her side to comfort me and soon enough Papa's speech came to an end and quickly the men dispersed to say their last goodbyes to their loved ones. Papa, Daggers, Shield and Lance made their way back to the three of us. Mama let go of me and ran to Papa, giving him a massive hug and kiss, I ignored them and ran towards my brothers. I jumped into the open arms of Lance, he wrapped his arms around me squeezing me tight, two more sets of arms wrapped around me, those being Daggers and Shield. Tears started to stream down my cheeks as I pleaded them not to go.

"Please brothers! I beg of you...don't go" I sobbed. Lance slowly dropped me to the floor. I pulled away from his shoulder to look at him and the two others.

"Don't cry dear sister" Shield hummed.

"We want to protect you and Maya from this prophecy, and the Gods that dare hurt you" Daggers curses.

"We will come home, we can't bear the thought of missing our karaoke night" Lance says. A smile spreads across my face and I let out a small giggle.

"There's the smile we love!" They say in union. We all chuckle and giggle at that.

"But Papa!!-"

"No Maya!"

We turn away from our conversation and turn to see Maya screeching at Papa to tge point where smoke is coming out of her ears until she suddenly turns on her heels and run into the Palace while shout at how unfair and selfish Papa was and how he failed as a father. We turn our attention to Papa who had tears running down his cheeks while his head was hung low.

I slowly leave my hermanos arms and approach Papa. Papa's head raises and he smiles once he sees its me, I give him an apologetic smile and wrap my arms around him. He does the same and lifts me into the air making me screech in laughter also making everyone else laugh. He stops soon after and just wraps his arms around me squeezing me half to death but I didn't care. Tears started pouring out of my eyes again.

"Te amo Papa." I whisper.

"Te amo hermana" He whispers back. We hug for a few more minutes until a few more pairs of arms wrap around us. Those being Mama's and mi hermanos.

A few more tears were she'd before they were descending the stairs over the Palace into the forest with their army following close behind. Quickly I climb to the highest point of the Palace and shout out.

"Be careful! Teach them never to mess with the kingdom of Teca!!!" The shouts and cheers of the soilders confirm they heard me. I return to Mama's side quickly enough as it was easy to get down, we both stay put until our army was completely covered in the forest greenery. Mama grabs my hand for comfort once again and she gently tugs me back inside the Palace so I don't start crying again.
