The grand King walked upstairs to one of the castle's many living rooms, where the rest of his family were all conforting Ethan after his meltdown. As he quietly entered, all he heard were the faint sobs of the teenage prince, "Shhhh... it's ok, honey" Miranda soothed her son "You'll never see him again, I promise". "I just... can't believe I... went through all that" Ethan tearfuly remarked "I don't even know how I made it". "What do you mean?" Asked James, "He's talking about how he managed to make it through the entire confrontation with the Captain... without fail" His mother told him quietly. "Oh... are you feeling alright?" James Asked his big brother, "I hope..." Ethan tearfuly Replied "I was just... so scared..." . "Oh, son..." Johnathon Frowned and he pulled Ethan into a big hug, "You're not the only one, I was too..." Sofia Frowned, sniffling. "I promise, he will NEVER lay a finger on you or your sister again" His father promised "Not as long as myself or any of us adults have anything to say about it", "Oh, don't worry about that" Decleared King Roland the First "I'll be seeing to it that he is transported to a maximum secured prison, far far away, one that is BEYOND secluded from society". "But, father" Frowned his son "I thought...", "I'm the one who knows him the most, son" the Grand King Replied "I'LL be the one to decide his fate, think of it as one final ruling before it's lights out". As Ethan sobbed quietly, the Grand King couldn't help but feel bad for him, so he decided to try and help "I don't think you have any idea how desperate myself and your grandmother were to finally meet you and your siblings," He told him with a smile "We had been waiting long enough to meet our son's children, and finally, we did. Then, around 10 years later, we became desperate to meet the two newest members of the Royal Family, Sofia and her mother, the NEW Queen and Princess of Enchancia. My wife was able to visit at a perfect time to meet them, just in time to witness - and participate - in the air show of Captain Barnstorm and the Flying Starwings. THEN, around another 2 and a half years had past, and we hear news of a long, lost relative of Miranda's family had finally been found, and was in the midst of reuniting with them after over an entire decade after his dissapearence! AND that he had saved the entire Ever Realm from an ancient evil!". "Such a long time... so many delays..." the Grand Queen remarked "And now, finally, we get a chance to meet the entire family in a single visit!". Ethan couldn't help but chuckle slightly "I can tell", "Goodness, it's been THAT long?" Gasped his mother "I'm so sorry it too you so long to gain the chance to visit, Sir...". "That is kind of you to say" the Grand King Smiled back "But in all seriousness, I must say, that it was indeed worth the wait". "I'm just glad we got to finally meet you after so long" James Smiled as he and Amber hugged him tightly, the Grand King simply couldn't help but kneel down and wrap his arms around them in return. "Well, everyone" Roland Decleared "It's getting late, which means?", "Awwww..." James Groaned "Already, dad?". "Can't we just stay up a little longer?" Amber Asked "We've been looking forward to be spending time with them all evening!", "Well..." Roland Said thoughtfuly. He looked over at his parents, who both nodded in approval. "Alright" He Smiled, "Thanks, dad!" James Beamed, "Oh, thank you, daddy" Amber Smiled. And so, the Royal Family spent another half an hour spending time with each other, and getting to know Ethan and his biological father a little better. "I still cannot believe he did all of that behind my aching back..." Frowned Roland the First, "I'm afraid it's true, every single word of it" Johnathon Frowned sadly "And that, is the whole story of how me and son were almost lost to history itself, becoming nothing more than simply... memories". "Still, to this day... half of me wishes it was all just a bad dream" Ethan Said tearfuly, "If only..." Agreed his father. "But Ethan, think for a moment" Sofia Replied "Had you and dad not been forced to leave us forever, mom would have never married our step dad... and we would've have never become one big royal family. And what's more, it means i would have never become a princess, nor a protector, AND i would have never had all those exciting adventures throughout my life". Ethan Sighed and closed his eyes "I... suppose you're right. What goes around, comes around". "But look on the bright side, eveything can now finally go back to the way they once were" Smiled their father "We're all back together again, it's a happy ending for all". However, the King was having 'Second thoughts'. "Well, i'd say it's time for bed!" Decleared Roland's father, "Ah, yes, quite right, father" Roland Agreed "Alright, kids, make sure to brush your teeth". The royal children, along with Ethan, went off to do just that.
