Ruina's New Plan

Babysitting Clay?!

Just wow! I can't believe how many people love this story! Over 100 reads! Yay! Thanks y'all! Back to the story!

The knights arrived to the kitchen and found it completely messy while Clay didn't have a single mess on him. "What happened in here?" Axl asked Robin who was completely covered in pancake batter. "Don't ask." Robin said embarrassed about what happen. "Super knight, did you do this?!" Lance shouted at Clay. Clay looked at Lance confused. "Who's super knight? I'm not a knight. And why are you yelling at me?! I didn't do anything to you. I was trying to help Robin and I burned my finger!" Clay shouted but as he got more and more upset, the pancake batter that Robin was trying to cook blew up making an even bigger mess.

"My hair?!" Lance shouted clearly upset. "Lance, we have more important things to worry about then your hair. I'll take Clay and get him cleaned up and fix that burn. Meanwhile, you guys clean up the kitchen. Come on, Clay. My name is Aaron and I'll fix that burn for you." Clay wiped the small tears from his eyes and nodded his head. "Okay. It's not going to hurt, right?" Clay asked. "Of course not, little dude. We'll get that fix and I'll get you a nice piece of fruit." Aaron said happily. "Okay. Let's go." Clay said then he and Aaron left. 

"Lance, remember what Merlok said, we can't upset Clay. His emotions and magic are unstable at his age." Macy said clearly annoyed. "Lance, from what we have seen from Clay and from what Merlok has told us, Clay's magic is powerful. Clay has already proven that we can't upset him at this age. Plus, you shouldn't yell at him." Axl told him. "Well, I don't know how to take care of kids." Lance said.

"None of us know how to care of kids, Lance. But that doesn't mean yelling at Clay if he does something wrong. We all did something wrong when we were his age but that doesn't mean we need to yell at him." Macy explained. "Fine, I'll apologize to Super Knight." Lance said. "Well, first off, you shouldn't call him Super Knight. Just call him Clay." Axl said. 

With Clay and Aaron

"Thanks for fixing my burn, Aaron." Clay said happily while looking at the knight bandaid on his finger. "No problem, Clayman." Aaron told him. "I like that nickname. But do you know where my mommy is? Merlok never said where she was." Clay told him. "Clayman, I don't know where she is right now. She must be on a secret mission and she didn't want to put you in danger." Aaron explained. "Whoa, that sounds cool! Maybe we could do something like that?!" Clay asked. Aaron laughed a bit. "Maybe later, Clay. We should get some breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It's how young knights/wizards like you grow big and strong." Aaron told him. "Okay, let's go!" Clay said then he and Aaron ran to the kitchen to get something to eat.

Before Clay and Aaron returned to the kitchen

"How in the world did pancake batter get everywhere when you and Clay made so little?" Lance asked Robin. "I have no idea. It could be a result of Clay's magic." Robin said. "Well, it doesn't matter now. We finish cleaning the kitchen." Macy said and right on time, Aaron and Clay returned to the kitchen. "We're back and Clay's feeling all better." Aaron said as he and Clay ran into the kitchen. "Yeah, we just need to eat some breakfast then we're good." Clay said happily.

"Well, Clay, we won't be able to make a big breakfast but some healthy fruit should be good." Macy said as she grab a banana and an apple and gave then to Clay. "Thanks, Macy." Clay said.

Later after Breakfast

"So, now what?" Lance asked after the other knights left Clay and Robin to watch cartoons. "Simple, we each take turns watching Clay. Meanwhile, the rest of us make sure Ruina can't get Clay. We still have our normal duties as knights." Aaron told the other knights. "Okay, so, who gets first watch?" Axl asked. "Hmm, Macy, you'll watch him first, then Axl, Lance, and finally me. Then the same order again. If Ruina or any monster attacks Knighton then we leave him here." Aaron told everyone. "Okay, so how do you watch kids?" Lance asked. 

"Lance, we've saved Knighton from monsters for a while now. I'm sure we can take care of a five year old Clay." Macy told him. "But what if Clay asks about his mother?" Lance asked again. "We just tell him anything to satisfy him. We can't tell him that his mother turned evil."Macy, I can make lunch for Clay. We don't need another accident." Axl told her. "Thanks, Axl. I'll go check on Robin and Clay." Macy said then she left to check on Clay.

With Robin and Clay

"Robin, are you a knight?" Clay asked "Yeah, but I don't go and fight monsters. I help in the Fortrex by making different mechs and helping Merlok as well." Robin explained. "So, you help my Uncle and my mom?" Clay asked. "Yeah, basically. When you're older, you can join the knights academy." Robin suggested. "Yeah, I would like that. I know my mom wants me to be a wizard but I also want to be a knight. Who says I can't be both?" 

"Right." Just as Clay and Robin finished their conversation, Macy walked in. "Hey, Clay. We're going to take turns watching over you for Merlok." Macy told Clay. "Cool, it was fun hanging out with you Robin." Clay said happily. "No problem. I'm going to see if Merlok and Ava need help. I'll be back later, Clay." Robin said then he left Macy and Clay alone. 

'Hopefully, watching Clay will be easy.' Macy thought to herself. "So, what do you want to do, Clay?" Macy asked. "Uhh, I don't know. Mom said I was going to start magic lessons soon but she's not here. Did Uncle Merlok tell you where she is?" Clay asked. "Sorry, Clay. Your mom didn't want to put anyone in danger so she didn't tell anyone where she went. All she said what that she loves you very much and she will be back soon." Macy said as she grabbed Clay and playfully messed with his hair. Clay laughed in happiness and as he laughed in happiness, one of the chairs turned into a marshmallow chair. 

Clay blushed in embarrassment as the now marshmallow chair. "Sorry, mom says at my age, my magic is uncontrollable." Clay said. "Oh, don't worry about it, Clay. I'm sure Axl will love that." Macy told him. "Axl, he's the big knight, right?" Clay asked. Macy nodded. "Yeah, but enough of that. You want to watch us train as knights?" Macy asked. "Yeah!" 

"Let's go!" Macy said then she and Clay left for the training room. 

In the training room

Axl, Lance, and Aaron were training in the training room then Macy and Clay entered the room. "Hey, Macy, Hey Clayman!" Aaron said. "Hi, I'm here to watch you guys train." Clay said. "Sure, Clayman, just be careful. We don't want you to get hurt, okay?" Aaron told him. Clay nodded. "Okay. I can just sit near then entrance and watch." Clay said as he walked over to the entrance and sat down. "Okay, knights. Let's get back to training." 

The knights trained and Clay just watched in awe. He loved every moment of training. The training increased his drive to become both a wizard and a knight. Then he noticed an enemy about to attack Macy and the other knights didn't even notice. "Macy!" Clay shouted. He used his magic to cast a protective bubble around Macy. "Huh?!" When she turned around, the enemy could not break through the protective bubble.

Clay couldn't keep the bubble up so it dropped and he fell to his knees in exhaustion. Macy destroyed the enemy and everyone ran to Clay to check on him. "Clay, are you okay?!" Macy asked. He nodded. "Yeah, I've never used a spell like that before. I don't even know how I did that. I don't even know any spells like my mom." Clay said. 

"Don't worry about it, Clayman. You helped Macy when she needed help." Aaron said. "Yeah, it's almost noon anyway. Let's get some lunch!" Axl said. "Yeah!" Clay said happily.

With Ruina

I can feel it. The spell has been completed. Clay is now the age I lost him at. Now, for my plan to start its course. Soon, Clay will join me and serve our master Monstrox.
