Azur Lane: Tribunal's Orders

Chapter 13: A Royal's Brew: The Maid's Ambition

Royal Garden, Azur Lane
Tribunal POV

I am making a best tea party for the Queen while at the same time I make a special brew that I made under the guidance of Belfast, but I want this to become my own personnel tea party for her Majesty because today is the special anniversary that today I become a maid for the Royal Navy. I heard that the Queen will be having her tea party after visiting the Dragon Empery so I need to make sure that everything is perfect. It was about couple of hours later that I was able to complete the setting of the tea party with smile on my face until Suffolk arrive.

Suffolk(shock): "YOU MADE THIS ALL BY YOURSELF!"

Tribunal(happy): "Yup because today is a special day for me as a trainee maid and I want to make sure that this is successful and hopefully surpass Belfast, but I doubt it."

I was smiling, but I sense Suffolk have a worry look on her face which is confusing because I was hoping for her to praise me of doing the work. I ask the question.

Tribunal(confuse): "Something wrong?"

Suffolk(worry): "I got the order from the Queen and she want to cancel the tea party."

After hearing that my body turn gray and shatter into like glass while hearing Suffolk with worry look on her face.

Suffolk(shock): "TRIBUNAL!"

Belfast POV

I got the information from the Queen that she is going to attend the Dragon Empery's tea party; so we have to cancel our own tea party. I went to talk with the maids about the tea party, but they didn't commence the making of the party which I was confuse. Did the Queen went ahead and inform them without telling me. I didn't notice Suffolk and Tribunal at the meeting so I better head to the location where the party is setting up. I went outside to the garden and see the party setup is still up including some food that is going to make. I notice Suffolk talking with Tribunal who looks like a dead person.

Belfast: "Suffolk? Tribunal? Why are you two still doing here?"

Suffolk: "Greetings Belfast; you see that Tribunal is still in shock and upset that the party was cancel."

Suffolk inform me that Tribunal did all the work because today is the anniversary that she start working for the maids and want to make this special, but the cancellation send a massive shock into her system that she is shut down until she start to cry.

Tribunal(crying): "I made a special brew for this day, but looks like it's going to the drain."

I start to feel bad about this and I should discuss this with her majesty, but she already left to the Dragon Empery Dorm so it's too late. I notice a tea jug that contains golden liquid which probably Tribunal's special brew tea. I pour some into the cup while Tribunal is staring at me with tears coming from her eyes and take a sip. I can sense some honey into the tea with the mixture of spice into the tea which makes me want to have more of it. I manage to drink couple of cup of tea with a smile on my face.

Belfast(happy): "This is a best tea I ever have."

This makes Tribunal happy, but realize that she made a lot of them because she want to make it big which makes me feel even more bad, but that change when I notice Rodney arrive with the other girls. It was the entire Royal Navy fleet.

Belfast(confuse): "Greetings Rodney, but why is everyone here?"

Rodney: "I overheard that the Queen cancel the tea party, but I can't accept it since today is special for Tribunal and she is family to us."

Nelson: "I can't believe her majesty cancel this special day because Dragon Empery think they have better tea than ours."

Ark Royal: "I think it's rude to not to let this food go to waste."

Everyone agree with Ark Royal and Tribunal's smile has return. Everyone sit down while the maids help Tribunal with the food and making sure that everyone is having fun while everyone is drinking Tribunal's special brew which it feels like paradise. I talk with Rodney of how she knows.

Belfast: "How do you know?"

Rodney: "I watch over Tribunal making all of this food by herself and the drink without any help. She want to make this day special."

That explains why I haven't seen her during the meeting with the maids for couple of days. She was preparing for the tea party, but didn't know about the cancellation, but at least the entire Royal Navy ships except for the Queen and Warspite; however I think it's time for me to head back to her majesty before she hurt herself. I was about to leave until Tribunal stop me.

Tribunal: "I want to thank you for showing up and I hope my tea is good."

I smile and decide to bring them to her majesty so she can try it. I left with a jug of Tribunal's brew tea and head to the Dragon Empery.

After the party is finish; I'm cleaning up the mess with the help of the maids until Queen Elizabeth arrive with a sorry look on her face. She found out that I made the party for this day and she regret it for not showing up or cancel it for that matter.

QE: "I'm sorry for the things I order. I didn't know today is the day. I offer this as forgive gift."

It was a tea that the Queen made and I was happy to drink it until I can hear voice from Belfast and Warspite to tell me of not drinking it. I drink it and I can see haven. I wake up after dreaming about haven and see Belfast scolding the Queen while Warspite give me water. Looks like the Queen's Tea can knock you out for life.
