Chapter 18: Order of the Heiress

    Marcy POV

     The second Marcy returned to the palace, she jumped off Joe, dashing through the palace halls. "Mom??" She called, worryingly. "Olivia?! Yunnan??" She pushed the doors of the dining room open as she saw her two moms standing there, looking worried. "Moms!" She cries as she jumped into their arms.

     "Marcy!!" They cried as they squeezed her tightly.

     "Where were you?!" Olivia cries.

     "We were worried sick!" Yunnan scolds, hitting her on the head softly.

     "Ah! I'm sorry, I just, I wanted to clear my head after the party," Marcy sniffled. "I felt so embarrassed. But I got captured by toads!"

     "You what..?" Olivia says angrily. "Oh I just about had enough of toads!"

     "Are you okay though?!" Yunnan asks. "Hurt? Hungry? Sick?"

     "No, no! I'm fine!" Marcy insists. "But I have to tell you something.. and it's huge."

     [time skip]

Order was sent out to find the human. Marcy needed to know more. Maybe it was a trap. Maybe it was a lie. But she had to know for herself.

She lied in bed, sighing. That's when she heard a sudden knock at the door. She sat up instantly. "Come in," she says. Her large bedroom doors are pushed open as King Andrias stepped in. "Oh. Hello Andrias."

     "Hello, Marcy. Can I have a few words with you?"

     "Yeah, go ahead." He reached down, lending her a hand as she literally jumped into his large palm. He was practically her uncle. They were pretty close as he gifted her the crossbow.

     "So, I was thinking, Marcy..." he started. "I'm only getting older... and you escaped toads for newts sake." Marcy tilted her head in confusion. "Well.. what I'm trying to say is.. I think you're ready."

     Marcy gasped. "What? Me..? On the throne?" She shook her head. "No! I'm not!"

     Andrias smiled. "Yes you are. You have to believe in yourself, Marcy."

     Marcy hesitated. "Andrias..." She bit her lip. She knew she was a wreck. Maybe she was a good strategist but that's it. She couldn't do public speaking, eye contact, heck she couldn't even wear heels without tripping. But oh olm. Marcy was such a people pleaser. "When..?"

     "Not sure... a month? The 23rd?" Andrias paused as he saw the worried expression on her face. "You don't have to."

     "No.. it's.." Marcy swallowed. "I'll be okay."

     "Okay. I'm really proud of you Marcy."

     "Mhm.."

     Suddenly, the doors burst open. "Master Marcy!" A newt guard cried.

     "What is it?" Marcy asked as Andrias let her down to the floor once again.

     "We may have found your human."

     "What?" Marcy exclaimed. "Take me there. Now."
