"So, what did your mother want" Hunk asked as Lance stepped out from the thrown room, dressed in his royal light blue clothing and a thin golden crown on his head. 

"Apparently we have an old friend of hers coming to visit .. I must entertain his children" Lance sighed as they started walking down the hall with his friend.

"So, how many children does he have and what are their ages" Hunk asked, dressed in his neat  light yellow Advisor outfit.

"No clue, I mean mama didn't really say much over her friend. She never mention his name before, he suddenly showed up in our lives and yet she feels like she known him forever yet I've never heard her mention his name before or speak about him" Lance replied as he swung his arms a little as he walked.

"Well they could be close to our age, oh maybe you'll be able to find a certain lady who'll become Mrs McClain the future queen" Hunk grinned wiggling his eyebrows. 

"I don't know man, I just never find anyone who truly catches my heart. I mean, yeah I flirt and all but its like a part of me is missing. My heart missing something" Lance frowned as he looked to the floor while he walked. 

"Lance, your the only one who not married or even found someone special in their life. Your elder siblings all have one or more children now while living their own lives away in mansions or another mini castle. You were chosen as the crown prince yet you found no queen in your life, your mother is getting worried" Hunk replied and Lance glanced to his friend.

"I was always told to marry for love, my mother did so for my no good father and then she found my step dad who is the best King in my eyes .. a man I wish to be like when I'm crowned. But I also want that love in their eyes when I look to my future queen" Lance explained with a slight frown.

"I know and I'm sure your find her" Hunk smiled, placing a hand on his shoulder.

"Thanks buddy" Lance smiled and Hunk nodded. 

"But I do have some good news" Hunk smiled, a slight blush over his cheeks.

"News" Lance asked rising an eyebrow as Hunk removed his hand, a gold ring shining in the sun light.

"My wife visited the doctor, I'm going to be a father" Hunk smiled brightly and Lance looked at him in surprised.

"No way .. Shay pregant ... Congrats dude" Lance cheered hugging his friend in pure excitement making Hunk laugh.

"Thanks, Shay thinks it going to be a son ... but we'll find out in six months. I still fear women sixth sense" Hunk replied and Lance laugh.

"You fear everything" Lance joked and Hunk nodded. 

"Excuse me .. You dropped something" A low cheerful voice called out making the two come to a stop and turning to each other thinking they were alone. 

"we did" Hunk asked with worry as he turned around looking towards four figures.

"Yes, you did" A rough but kind voice smiled making Lance turn around.

"Here, Its rather important you don't lose this" A soft small voice spoke, with a slight smirk as she held something out to the Prince who just stared at her with wide eyes.

"My bracelet" Lance muttered as he watched the women lift her other hand, sliding under one of his hands before lifting his palm and placing a bracelet, a seashell tied to the lace. The seashell was a blue one where it became green in the middle before turning it white at the end. He felt like it belong to someone important making it his most needed treasure.

"It was once a necklace" She answered with a soft smile before sliding her hand back, her finger tips catching the tips of his own fingers as she did so before she stepped back.

"Try not to lose such a treasure again, it holds power with the bond that was formed with just a simple Seashell" A harsh but gentle voice smirked as the only female returned to the other three males. 

"Who are you" Lance asked, his eyes never leaving the women with such pretty hazel eyes.

"Katie" She answered with a soft smile, her eyes glancing back to him before she turned to her friends. 

"And you three" Hunk called out as they started to walk away.

"Mathew" The older man with a low cheerful voice answered with a sweet smile.

"Shiro" The oldest male rough but kind voice, a kind smile on his lips.

"Keith but more importantly who are you" The youngest male with a harsh but gentle voice grinned, crossing his arms. 

Lance and Hunk stood frozen, the question confusing them both yet it held such power within them that something wanted to call out to the strangers. 

"Its time for us to return back to father, It seems the blade was enough to keep our story" Katie whispered to other three who nodded with gladness in their eyes.

"Live a good life" Matt smiled brightly.

"We grateful the Island chose you both to live" Shiro smiled sweetly.

"It was good to see you both free before the end" Keith smiled softly.

"Goodbye" Katie grinned and the four looked to the two before them with pride in their eyes. 

"Oh and Lance/Hunk, we keep protecting the Island so be free" The four all spoke together, Two speaking to Hunk, two speaking to Lance as they gave a promise. 

Lance and Hunk stared at them stunned as the four walked away, their footsteps echoing the halls while Lance and Hunk glance to each other.

But then the footsteps stopped making the two turn back to find the hall empty .. no one else in sight yet the hall was too long for the other four to have reached the end. 

They were just gone without a trace.

"Did you always carry the Seashell before" Hunk asked as he was a little freaked out.

"I couldn't find it .. ever since you woke me up that one time .. it was missing. How did she" Lance started to mutter in shock and looked to the seashell made into a bracelet in his hand. 

"Oh god, you don't think the castle is haunted .. right" Hunk asked in fear and Lance glanced back to the empty hall.

"A sword that held a forgotten story" Lance whispered as he placed the bracelet back on.

"Don't start acting wise on me now" Hunk frowned and Lance chuckled.

"Every have a dream that you forget as soon as you wake up .. yet it felt so important like it held a secret. Maybe some secrets are best to be remember" Lance smiled softly as he started walking.
