Lost Times

Ace's Comeback. (19)

(Three years later.. )

Then there it was they were all married to their own partners and started their own Kingdoms. And Alice finally reclaimed her Kingdom with Jace. They were both standing at the balcony and was quite proud for what they've done and provided to the people (of Leux Kingdom.)

"Jace.. I'm so glad it's all over." Said Alice.

Jace was hugging Alice from behind. "Yeah I know, I hope it will stay like this forever.." Then they both looked at each other.

"It will." Said Alice with a smile.
Wolfe sleep soundly by the fireplace.

...

They decided to have a little reunion to see each other again. They all talked and hanged.

"I never taught you're still doing that." Said Zian to Alice, they all laughs.

"Yeah I know.. " Said Alice.

"I'm so glad to see each other again" said Sireine. She thought for a moment. "I wondered where's ace gave is.."

"Well.. Wherever it is I don't wanna visit it." Said Alice. Then they all laugh again. "It reminds me.. Will you all excuse me for a sec?"

"What? Why?. Where are you going?." Asks Jace.

"I've just remembered I haven't visit pops jobe for a long time." She smiled.

"We're coming with you." Sireine said.

"No, its okey. No need, I can handle myself." Alice turned to Jace. "I'll not be long." Alice kissed Jace cheeks before she makes her way.

"Well okay. Careful out there." They all said back.

Alice smiled "Yeah."

Sireine started to speak when Alice was out of sight. "You're too sweet for each other.."

...

When she got there she was shocked to find jobe wasn't in his grave.

"Where is it.. Could it be moved?.. But." She thought.
"I know it was here! It was here!." Alice repeats. She wondered then not long enough he saw a man coming. She look at it but can't make out its face. She later gasps and was more shocked to see it was Jobe. Alice felt frightened that she feel her hands and body shakes. She slowly walked backwards and can't look long to Jobe's rotten* skin. Then it spoke.

"Hey Alice, it's me Jobe your dad." Jobe called. "Don't be scared I'll won't hurt you. I promise.." He said.

Alice stood by a little bit braver. "Then how would I know it's you.." Ask Alice.

"I've healed myself, see!" He showed he was holding the bottle potion. "So would you please come to me now, I really miss you Alice." He said while walking forward to Alice. "I won't hurt you, see." He opened his arms then hugged Alice. "You've changed a lot, I miss you and I'm so proud of you.."

Alice started crying. "I thought you're gone forever.."

"I'd said I'll be back.." He said. Alice stopped at this and looked to him scared. "Wait.. You've never said that. You're not.." She released from him.

He smirked. "That's right." Ace take a hold of her again tightly. "You still remembered me?."

"Let me go..!" Alice was trying to get out from his grip. Alice was so scared and tries to call for help. "Help me!!.."

"Your friends can't you hear you here.."

...

"Why is she taking so long.." Said Jace impatiently.

"She'll be back, she promised." Said Sireine. Later they'd heard a voice calling.

"Help!!."

"Alice!" Jace stood up feeling a bit nervous.

"Where is she?" Ask Zian.

"Jobe's grave!" They both said, they all rushed quickly.

...

Sireine can't believe her eyes. "What!?. It's Jobe.!" She pointed.

"How the.." Zian said back.

"How come you're alive, I thought you're dead." Said Jace. They were all shocked and scared about it.

"Boy it's good to be back.." He smiled. "Oh, sorry." He turned back to his original Ace self. "Ah much better.. You're all too late to save your friend." Ace said. "Isn't it right Alice.?"

Alice struggled. "Hng, let me go.!!"

"Let her go!" Jace said.

"Why wouldn't I..?" Ace said sarcastically. They tried to fight Ace but he was so invincible that they can't even scratch him. Even if how much they don't like the idea of giving up they stopped. And called on each other to think of a plan. They lowered their voices trying not to let Ace heard them.

"This is hopeless, we can't even kill him." Said Jace desperately.

"What do you think we should do?" Ask Zian.

"I don't know, but we have no other choice. We need to go back to father." Sireine said.

"What!? Are you insane?? We can't just leave her here.!" Said Zian.

"Am I not joining in?" Said Ace to them.

"She's right, maybe he can help us out. Come on Zian we have no other choice.!" Said Jace.

Then they all rushed to leave them first and went to their Father's Kingdom.

"Oh, looked at them.. I guess they were cowards after all.." Said ace disappointingly. Then he tied Alice next to the tree tightly. He was busy sharpening his sword and a dagger amusing himself. "Killing you easy is boring, you know." He said. While Alice was gagged by a cloth to her mouth so that she can't shout.

...

Then they all reached King James castle, later they told James what happened. All were shocked and scared to hear this. King James take them to a secret passage way and oath to never tell it to anyone. King James then gave them the book that can help them to get rid of Ace.

"I hope I'd help enough. The whole Kingdom are counting on you.." King James said going out through the door.

"This will do. Thanks father!." Said Sireine

"Yeah, thanks!" Zian said then they all look to it. Sireine read it.

"So what it said?." Zian ask.
