The Battle For Sky Book 1: A Dark Secret

Chapter 23

Sky's POV

When I was done with my dinner I went to my room. That's when I saw someone standing by my bedroom door. I wonder what they want at this hour, It was already eleven'o'clock at night and I would like to get some more sleep before tomorrow morning. I walked over to them and was surprised to see that it was Echo.

"Why hello Echo, I didn't expect to see you at this hour. What do you need?" I asked the new recruit curiously.

"Well there's someone here to see you Sir. They have some important news to tell you." He said in a calm manner.

Well I might as well get this over with as soon as possible.

"Right. Would you mind showing me where they are Echo?" I asked.

"Not at all Sir" He said before leading the way.

With that we started walking over to where this visitor was. Echo led me towards the library and closed the door behind me. He showed me where the two visitors were, or should I say girls were. They looked at me expectantly and walked over to me. They were wearing cloaks and all that was showing was their faces. I had a feeling that I had met them before, but I shook the feeling off before it could get to me.

"Hello your Majesty, we have some urgent news to tell you that has to do with the Squids." One of them said.

"Well tell me then, but first please introduce yourselves to me. I would like to know who you two are." I asked without meaning to sound too pushy.

"My name is Kuria and this is Nikome." Kuria said her gaze not leaving me for an instant. Ok this is getting a little uncomfortable.

"So... what about that news that you were talking about earlier?" I said a bit uncomfortably.

"Right well the squids are planning on capturing you and experimenting on you your Majesty. They will do anything to get to you and if you havent noticed already Sir, You are in grave danger." Nikome said in a laid back tone. Well I geuss she doesn't want to be here anymore than I do.

"RIght, I've kinda noticed that already. Is there anything else that you need to warn me about?" I asked suspiciously.

"Yes there is... Skybrine, you are to come with us immediately. You are to come with us or else we will be forced to use brute force. You are mine now Sky, No one can save you from your fate except for me. No one will take you away from me ever again Sky, you were suppose to be with me anyways from the start of your life." Kuria said with an evil glare in her eyes, that was determined to take me to where ever it was with her.

"W-Wait how do you know that name and how do you know that I'm the one that was suppose to be with you since the "Beginning". How do you even know that I'm yours!?!?!" I said with fear crawling into my voice.

"Sky, Sky, Sky. You really haven't changed in the last fifteen years have you? You have completely forgotten that I'm your mother and that I'm the one who gave that name to you. Sky, you know that you were never suppose to be with your father to begin with right? YOU WERE SUPPOSE TO BE WITH ME NOT HEROBRINE!!!!!" She said with such anger in her voice that I was kneeling on the ground with my hands over my ears trying to reduce the sound of her words. Not only was the intensity of her voice painful but, what she was saying wasn't true.... could it though? No, my mom would never say something like that, she wasn't the kind of person to say that kind of stuff.

"You're..... not.... my...... mom...." I said with the words barely leaving my mouth. What's going on? My mom Shouldn't be here, or who ever she is. My mom has been dead for the last fifteen years. She died because the squids attacked our castle in the Nether and killed her right in front of my eyes. That was when I learned that I had acquired all of my father's powers. With fury running through my veins, I killed every single squid in an attempt to avenge my mom....but how was she here and why is she here if this is really her....
