Fallen Kingdom

Chapter 2

(Elizabeth's point of view)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Ugh, It's morning, and I have to go to the queen today, see you when I come back." I told the care taker. My dad died before I was born and, my mom, well no one knows who she is and where she is. I live with a blind lady, but when she swings at me with the broom she never misses. Some times I wonder if she really is blind. Her name is Granny Ai, and my middle name is Ai too. 

"Don't go causing trouble there now, you hear!" she was walking towards me and tripped over one of her plants. Nope she is definitely blind. "Have fun. And if you have time please stop by the store for me please." she handed me a piece of paper and went inside.

"Well at least she didn't fall on the way in." I said, and started to leave when I hard a load of pots hit the floor with and a big thud. "Sigh, spoke to soon." I didn't want to know what happens so I left the scene.

I went to the castle that belonged to the queen, there some guards opened the gates and let me in. I went through the gardens and came in form the service door. The kitchen was huge and there were almost one-hundred maids, and cooks all together in one place. They feared me too, which was no surprise. Here the news traveled fast. 

The servants make a line for me to pass and they didn't look at me in the eyes. They act like if they look at me in the eyes, they would turn to stone. Do I look like Medusa. The feeling was mutual, Granny Ai doesn't look at me in the eyes ether, but she's blind so that explains a lot. I was at the door and closed it behind me. I heard murmurs comings from the kitchen. And there were a few people that let out a breath of relief. 

"Oh, excuse me, can you take me to the queen. I was suppose to meet her today." I said to a guy that was in the hall way. He turned to look at me and ran way. I guess I do look like Medusa after all.

"Don't feel bad. Here I'll show you were you can find the queen. Hi my name is Logan nice to meet you." Logan said. He stock out his hand and smiled. That was weird, no one reacts that way. I took his hand.

"Thanks. Hey, you are that guy that I had to take here yesterday. " I said as I followed him.

"Yeah my mom don't trust me by my self. Sorry if I was a bother to you yesterday." He walked in front of me. We passed a lot of corridors and finally came to a stop.

"Wait, you are the queens son. I didn't know that." I was a bit shocked. Why can he leave the castle like nothing. I thought that he was suppose to stay inside no mater what happens.

"Yeah she's my mom. When people find out, they treat me like I am different. That is why I didn't want you to know." Logan sounded mad. He doesn't want to be known as the queens son. That makes no sense, but that is his way of thinking.

"Don't worry I won't treat you like royalty if you don't want me to. I am pretty good at acting normal. I hope we can be friends." I smiled at him and that seamed to make him happy. We both knocked on the door, and we went in.

The queen was at her desk and several humongous piles of paper work was blocking her away form us. She got up and sat next to her son. 

"I'm sorry, I couldn't great you my self earlier. I have a lot of paper work that I have to do." she looked at the pile of papers at her desk and turned to us again. "Well lets get down to business. I have seen your profile, and I think that you would be the best person to teach my son who to use his powers, and teach him how to defend himself. He already knows all that is basic but he can use some more training. I was thinking that your would be a good coach."

I was not expecting this, and I was not the only one who's news came down like a hurricane. Logan jumped from his seat. He didn't like the plan any more than I did.

"Well what do you say. Do you take the job." She was really hoping for me to say yes.

"I don't want to make a choice with out your son agreeing with it first. So what do you choose. Do you allow me to be your defence trainer? I am just saying because you don't look that happy about it." I had to ask him. He didn't look happy about it. And to be honest I was not that happy about it ether. But, hey if I can miss school who wouldn't want to take the job!

"Did I really look like I don't like the plan. Well... I don't like the fact that I'll have to train with a girl but, I'm cool with it. But are you okay with it?" How funny. We are no longer talking formal.

"Yeah I guess. If I can hit someone without getting in trouble I'll take the job"

"Okay them. It's settled. You can start when every you want." the queen was quite happy. "I would like to celebrate but I have to organize this mess." She was pointing at the piles of paper stacked up to the roof.

"I can fix that." I used my telekinesis and organized the paper work. The queen went and cheeked the papers and they were all were they were suppose to be. She thanked me and I said we will start training at once.

This was going to be fun.
