The Zodiac Kingdom

Chapter 4 - The Plan?

Mercury's POV

I woke up and then I realised that we where not in our usual house. I panicked slightly but then realized we had a sleepover with the Fires. Sun came out of the bathroom, brushing his teeth.

"Goog wahwming," he greeted.

"Huh?" I asked. "I don't understand."

Sun went into the bathroom and spat his toothpaste out. Then he emerged. "I said 'Good Morning'... wait, where are Leo and Sagittarius?"

That's went I realized that they weren't there. Everyone else was in bed, and the girls were probably still asleep in the other room.

I decided to get dressed first, before looking for Leo and Sagittarius. That's when I saw a note on the door. It read:

Dear Planets,

I couldn't tell you this before, because Leo and Sagittarius asked be not to tell you guys so fast, because it might worry you, but now I think about it they probably asked me to do so, so that they could do some kind of evil prank. Setting that aside, when I finally scolded them for being cheeky, all of you were already sleeping (like babies, apparently, which was what Leo said), so we decided not to wake you up. So I left this note on the door to inform you that Ophiuchus is now in power again. And he has the object. THE POWERFUL ONE. He somehow escaped, and Scorpio is blaming me for it. However, I will 'right this wrong' by training us to prepare us for the battle. We will be training the whole day to ensure we are stronger and better than Ophiuchus. I rented some rooms in a building for the day so that we don't get distracted. However, we will take long breaks because we will be over working ourselves. You don't have to tell the girls because I left a note on their door.

Here is the schedule:

8am - 9am =

Group 1: Aries, Mars, Pluto, Scorpio = Train in room 201

Group 2: Chiron, Libra, Taurus, Venus = Train in room 203

Group 3: Gemini, Leo, Mercury, Sun = Train in room 202

Group 4: Cancer, Capricorn, Moon, Saturn = Rest in room 102*

Group 5: Ceres, Neptune, Pisces, Virgo = Rest in room 104*

Group 6: Aquarius, Jupiter, Sagittarius, Uranus = Rest in room 105*

*When I mean rest, I mean strategize an idea to beat Ophiuchus. Remember, no idea is too dumb, but make sure it is possible. Write it down, and we'll share ideas at the end of the day. You can also train if you want.

9am - 10am = Groups 1 and 4 switch, Groups 2 and 5 switch, Groups 3 and 6 switch (including rooms).

10am - 12am = Switch again

12am - 2pm = Have lunch, Groups 1, 2 and 3 combine ideas, Groups 4-6 do the same.

2pm - 3pm = Switch from where you were last time

3pm - 4pm = Switch again, if we want to beat Ophiuchus this time, especially with the unspeakable weapon, we have to switch our mind to BATTLE MODE (don't show this part to Leo and Gemini or they will start cracking up and do some weird robot scenario, I am begging you.)

Same routine until 6pm dinner.

After 6pm, we all all meet up, and discuss our plan. Our day will end at 8pm. You are free to do whatever you want after 8pm.

The address of the place is behind this note. Please meet us there by 7:15, and ensure you have a good breakfast, paper, a pen, and a spare change of clothes.

See you soon,

Aries

P.S. The marked mustache on your face, Chiron, was drawn on with washable marker, so you'll be fine. Sagittarius says he is sorry.

I wanted to split the chapters up more so sorry again if it it too short. I know I said that this chapter would be longer in the last one but I decided to use that idea in chapter 5. Sorry for those who had been waiting!
