The Moonlight Princess.

Chapter 12: A Battle Between Brothers.

There were shocked gasps as Luna maneuvered through the castle. She had to get to her fathers quarters right away. She saw his chamber up ahead and sped up. Deco, Shade, and Splotch emerged from the room and looked at the princess. They blinked and rubbed their eyes, "Sir the reports were true, she's returned."

Her father ran out of the room and his eyes softened, "Lunia! You're alive!" He flew over to her and hugged her tightly, "Are you alright? You seem thin, did they hurt you at all?"

"I'm fine, but the kingdom might not be. I have so many things I need to tell you I don't know what to say first!" Luna gasped. 

King Kunkurou lowered her to the ground and put his hands on her shoulders, "I'm listening, what is it?"

"First off." She looked at General Shade, "Why did you make the guards take Kyro away? Your son is alive, I thought you'd be happy to hear!"

General Shade stared at her bewildered, "I have no idea what you are talking about, I gave no such orders. You say my son is alive?"

Luna nodded, "He saved my life down in Tetsuka, he was training hard to protect the kingdom. We also discovered information about Tetsukian rebels that could save the kingdom." 

The king looked at his guards, "Lets take this conversation back in my chamber." The father and daughter walked in followed by the guards. They shut the door behind them, along with posting guards outside of it. "We're all ears, Luna."

"They're making a weapon, a mixture of gender venoms. We believe they're going to use it on the castle and strike when everyone is paralyzed." Luna said standing up straight. The king's eyes widened, "Are you positive? When are they coming?"

"With all do respect King Kunkurou, and Princess." Deco barked, "But you were kidnapped, they could have messed with her brain. We don't want to start a war for no reason because of some bandits brainwashing."

"It's true, I saw the female prison. It was called the mountain of lost souls, they held females there captive. " Luna panted. 

The men looked at each other then back at her. "Seems fishy to me." Deco murmured. "She always did have a big imagination."

"My daughter would never lie on matters of the kingdom." The king defended. 

"As much as I'm happy to hear my son is well and alive, I have to side with Deco on this one." Shade barked. "We would have heard about this from spies by now."

"They have spies here." Luna muttered darkly. "It's how they knew who and where I was." 

"I think we should here her out, Turf can examine her." Splotch barked. Luna looked at him appreciative then back at her father, "Can I? I will do anything to prove I'm telling the truth."

"It looks like we must, in the mean time, whats with this business with Kyro?" The King asked looking at Shade. He shook his head and put his head on his hand, "I honestly don't know, I thought my son was dead I wouldn't have sent him to the dungeon."

"Then who did? Executive orders can't be made by just anyone." Splotch muttered. 

"They can be forged by certain people though." Luna growled.

"We will take care of the rest, thank you for bringing my son home. Shade said dipping his head to Luna, "I'm going to the dungeon immediately to figure this out."

The King hugged his daughter once more, "Your mother and brother have been alerted. You can change in your chambers then we will formally have a reunion and get you checked out. I have preparations to make, I will see you soon."
