The young ginger hair launched himself at Lawrence. Lawrence, out of defence, summoned his shield with his magic. The shield was cyan in colour, with many carvings engraved on it, in black. Both the sword and the shield crashed into eachother with tremendous energy radiating from them, causing a large explosive sound. There was a light flashing from where both the weapons touched eachother. Both the weapon holders gurted. But, the light faded almost instantly. Because the next moment was followed with a scream, and the audience watched as the young ginger head flew backwards with his sword flying beside him. The pair fell on a rose bush, breaking the fall. The ginger head came out of the bush, puffing and coughing out some red petals. He finally jumped out, his suit being covered with petals. The girls burst out laughing.
Both the new comers looked surprised. The ebony head took the lead now. "Sisters, why are you finding humor in this dangerous situation? There is an intruder beside you!" The ginger head again straightened up, picking up his sword and pointing it at Lawrence, saying,"SPEAK, who are you?!" That threat was met with a chuckle as a reply from Margret who decided to enlighten the boys about Lawrence.
"Brother Law, this ebony is Ronald and the hyper ginger is George , the 6th and 7th princes. And brothers, meet our eldest brother, Lawrence!"
Margret said and waited for the boys to have thier gears turn inside their head. Finally, the eyes of the brothers went wide and their heads zapped to Lawrence. Lawrence smiled and said, "Good day, dear brothers! I thought the ginger would be a bit more good with his sword, from how he attack!"
George's shocked face suddenly turned to that of an angry one, with prominant red cheeks due to embarassment, he stomped to Lawrence and said in a dominating voice, "Hey, I am the be fighter in my catgory! You are elder than me, how can you mock me like that!" "Because, I'm your eldest brother." Said a grinning Lawrence. George was about to start again, but he was cut off by Ronald, who awkwardly came to Lawrence and said, "Welcome back home brother!" he said with a formal bow, but Lawrence could see the awkwardness in it. He couldnt help but smile. Ronald....he was still in his mother's womb the time he left. He was a bit upset as he could not see his brother once he was born.
Lawrence's hand went to the still bowing Ronald's head, and ruffled his ebony hair. Ronald's face zapped up to see Lawrence's caring smile. Lawrence said,"It has been 15 years, Ronald! When I left, you didn't even say hello to the world. I'm your brother, don't be so formal!" Ronald's lips which already formed a tight line, twitched. He was slighty embarassed, that his hand went to the back of his neck and scratched it. Then suddenly George said in his highly spirited tone, "What about me?" Lawrence laughed as he walked to his youngest brother and messed up his hair saying, "You weren't even in your mom's womb!" George wailed as he tried to fix his now messed up hair. "Sister Meg, he...he..." He went to his bigger sister and pulled her skirt. Meg giggled softly and patted his head. "He is just happy to see you, dear Geo." Lawrence smiled. The connection between the George must be really strong. A moment ago, he was acting all big, like a 'knight in a shining armor'!
"Brother Lawrence, your shield was mysterious. Was it because your magic was different?" Ronald spoke up. Lawrence smiled as he nodded his head ad said, "Yes its true. The type of magic varies from person to person. Its based on elements, after all." "What is your element, brother?" Ronald asked. There wasa small twinkle in his sapphire eyes. Lawrence sighed and said, "Actually I'm not sure too!" "WHAT?! How is that possible?" Ronald exclaimed. "Well, I am a royal, but I dont have blue eyes like you. Do you know why?" "No!" "There are always things in this world that are unexplained. But when, our knowledge increases, we will have a reasonable answer to all this." Lawrence said. Then, George pulled Lawrence's coat and said in a mistreated tone, "But I'm the best swordsman in my School! how did you defeated me so easily?" "Because, i am actually the best!" "No way! I won't believe you!" George fumed and stormed away to a path in the rose garden. Margret sighed as she shook her head, and said, "You really want to mess with him, huh?" "Hmm... yes!" Lawrence relied in a very serious voice, which earned a laugh from those who were present. Ronald the said, "Brother, can you show me your shield? I never saw one with cyan colour." Lawrence summond his shield. The beautifully shaped shield was presented to them. Ronald let out a "wow" in awe, Margret and Harriet exclaimed and said "Its beautiful!" Harriet gasped and ran her baby like fingers over the engraving on the outer part of the shield. The shield was cyan in colour, with many carvings engraved on it, in black. The carvings were really shining though in black colour. The carving were of a wolf's head and had water symbols on the side of it. There were many other beautiful carvings too. "Brother, this beautiful and so big! Our shields are crystally blue and had wind or water symbols and are small like the army shields. Your's have many unknown symbols. That wolf head is beautiful!" Ronald exclaimed with a shocked face. He also had a smile. Lawrence disappeared the shield.
"So, you were here...I thought you would be having a talk with the queen mother."
Suddenly, there was a voice which was female but very firm. It depicts a strong personality under the cover of a female body. and only one person has this strong heart. Lawrence's face turned emotionless and his cyan eyes glowed a little. He turned to face that woman, whom he hated so much in his childhood and now too, there is no change in his views to this lady.
