Chapter 25

Chapter 25 - The Time

"Alright men, ready up! We have a rebellion to contribute to!" King Ross had exclaimed to his soldiers. The men were armed, with blue and gold armor to represent both kingdoms: blue for King Ross and gold for Prince Sky.

"As this rebellion will determine our freedom and our lives, we must all risk our lives to bring back Prince Sky's Kingdom, and to overthrow King Jin for what he's done!"

Cheering echoed through the castle where they were, as the soldiers were readying their positions and weapons.

...

Meanwhile, Jorge, Carlo, Chris, Tyler, and Sub were at the archives, searching for information about the history of the two kingdoms. Seto was there to chaperone them and to help them with any of their needs.

"Hey guys, I think Sub found something!" Chris called. Everyone rushed to where Sub and Chris were, Seto curious to see what they had discovered.

"What is it...?" Tyler asked in awe.

"It looks... ancient." Carlo said.

"No kiddin'." Jorge laughed. Seto looked over and gasped.

"It... can't be! Ross had this the entire time?!"

"What is it?" Sub asked quietly.

"Its... the history between the Water Kingdom and our kingdom..."

"WAR OF CHANGE"

It was then that the army of Jin's had invaded, wanting to take over. He wanted power, resources, and more. He wanted to change our lifestyle, and we all knew that was not going to happen. I had lead my army forth, their lives and happy deaths fighting for the kingdom. Some of my people were kidnapped, but somehow lived to grow great lives...
Or so I thought.
Until I met Prince Sky or Adam, the adopted son of Jin, my opinions changed. I signed a treaty; something to keep our kingdoms in order. But Adam had told me, along with his companions that were planning a rebellion just months ago. Of course, Lady Jess and I said yes, but we had to get ready. None knew how to start this rebellion, and we didn't know when the rebellion would start. Maybe soon.

"That's it?" Carlo asked, interested.

"Yes. This was written three years ago, it was a brief history of the war between our kingdoms." Seto informed. "The war happened years ago. Quentin was one of the people that were kidnapped, Mitch and Jerome were caught in the crossfire in the forests when one of Jin's soldiers attacked and burned it down. Ian fought in it, but had no idea what he was fighting for until mid battle. Myself, Ty, and Jason were young and didn't even know about this war. As for Adam, he was nearly killed."

"Whoa... that's... brutal..." Chris said slowly, shocked.

"That's fucked up." Tyler said, angered. But changed his tone and asked, "But... it's because of us the rebellion is arriving?"

"It would seem so." Seto responded.

"Amazing how just a couple of teenagers can change a kingdom's history." Jorge said in awe.

"Who knew we could make a change?" Sub whispered, his voice slightly hoarse.

"Seto!" Quentin called, next to him was Ian and Jason.

"Yes, Quentin?" Seto asked, turning his head to face the three boys.

"It's time." Ian said, his tone more serious than it ever was. Everyone stared at him, as Seto sighed and nodded.

"We'll be right out."

"Alright, Seto. See you there." Jason said as the three left the room. Seto sighed and took off his hood, showing his white crown and his brown locks of hair. His voice finally changed to a young pitched voice and not his deep, serious tone.

"I wish you all luck on the battlefield... you guys are risking your young lives for the freedom of everyone..." He smiled, as he put his hood back on and turned away, his cape flowing as he walked. The five kids looked at each other, and grabbed their weapons.

"This may be it."

"A battle that determines our lives."

"A war to determine freedom."

"Something to fight for."

"Something for others and ourselves."

They hugged, and walked out, hand in hand as the burning daylight hit their eyes, and the rebellion was to be commenced.

I feel really bad not updating for the longest time. I also feel really bad on publishing this on Thanksgiving.

I'm so so sorry. I've... been dealing with problems. Problems that have hurt me from the inside out. I have had only little bits of motivation left to write, let alone have any ideas on what to write next. I deeply apologize. I've also been pre writing other stories, so sometimes my focuses are on those stories.

I've been really depressed, so I'm really sorry for the lack of updates.

Happy Thanksgiving~
