Knight in Shining Armour

Back to Same Track!!

Chapter - 6

"You are the king?" She was surprised to meet such a prominent person simply on the road; this only happens in novels. He offers her to be safe and guarded in the palace until she has a place to go but on one condition that she needs to be his chief Dino-searcher. She agreed at once as this is hitting two birds with one stone, she will be protected and can do some research before going back to earth. 

He took her to the palace and on the way she was thinking about how big the palace would be. Will it be like Buckingham Palace or like the traditional palaces of Arab, but when she got there she was shocked to see that it was not at all like what she thought. It was more like a big farmhouse with different small and big quarters. It still has one thing that makes it royal and that's servants greeting the king and a main hall which is not so big but still spacious enough to fit around 20 people. He ordered the servants to arrange a quarter for her, she was a special guest. She heard someone hailing the queen and she turned around to see.

"You are here my love", the king greets the queen who was the same lady Sera helped earlier.

"You...you are the queen?" Sera asked in surprise and the king asked if they knew each other. The lady recognized her at once and told the king how she helped her.

"Why is the royal family all roaming on the road? Be it a son, mother or father. Strange but still I'm safe for now", thought Sera in her mind. They all sat down and discussed with each other what happened to them the whole day.

"Finally you got someone who can help you with your strange hobby", said the queen casually. Sera corrected her that this is not a strange hobby and that uncle is very skilful in this. All the fossils he collected are rare but simple looking making it difficult to differentiate them from the normal rocks.

"Uncle?", the king reacts as he never heard of this term.

"Actually on my planet, we call uncle to male elders with respect", Sera quickly explained to avoid suspicion.

"Ohh! My habits, I forgot to have a proper invitation", said the Queen and introduced him as the king of North Comly-5, Aiden and herself as the queen of North Comly-5, Amia.

"My name is Sera, chief Dino-searcher of North Comly-5", said Sera and giggled.

"You will call him uncle then what about me?" asked the queen in curiosity.

"You will be my aunt then", Sera replied with a smile.

The queen ordered the servants to arrange the quarter for her which is nearest to theirs. A servant told her that all quarters are full near them, only 2 left which are for the future ladies of the princes.

"That will be good. Arrange it for her", said the queen and looked at Sera with a smile.

The Queen asked her about her planet and Sera was not sure what to answer and looked worried. The king noticed her face, changed the topic and asked her about the kidnappers she mentioned earlier.

"Kidnappers? Who dares to kidnap you!", the queen reacts with raised brows.

"Actually, someone wearing a mask kidnapped me from my planet and even tied me in a strange flat. He even has a gang of 50 people or maybe more!"

"Who is so impudent to do such things on our planet! Let my son come back and I will let that kidnapper face the punishment for this"

"I met you son actually. Prince Castor, right? He actually helped me escape from that flat."

"Castor helped you out of courtesy, but I'm not talking about him. I'm talking about my elder son, who is in charge of the defence of Comly-5, Prince Ray."
