Chapter 4 - surprise in the garden

We walked through the portal and in the blink of an eye Alara and I entered the grounds of Earth's Castle, surrounded by lush party decorations and a host of people from every planet in the solar system. Alara: what did I tell you, the girl always makes a lot of fanfare -What can I tell you, sure he thought he would never get it and now that he got it it must be like having reached paradise, all I think is that it is going to be a very long day where I'm going to have to put on a smile and say hello to many people cordially and sincerely I do not want in the least to enter the intricate system of intrigues of the galactic nobility, birds that I only go to court for what is strictly necessary I hate the snake venom that diplomats distil. Alara: I know my good friend but change your face and look around for something better you find something that makes your eyes happy -Really Alara, the only thing that has happened to raise my spirits is to talk to me about boys.You know that I know almost all the nobles and princes of the system and I don't like some of them because they have no more brain than a mosquito and others because they think they are so superior to the rest of the beings that make me nauseous and those that do serve well they are my friends and only that friends Alara: precisely those who serve you have seen for a long time on the battlefield repelling invasions from other systems in not very encouraging conditions but I say that for you they are not friends but almost brothers, but I have news for you miss I hate the court and i love training camp today you will have the pleasure of meeting the only prince of the system you have never seen -so we will finally meet the face of the crown prince of the sun Alara: the moon and the sun a great combination you know many human peoples have legends that represent your kingdom as eternal lovers separated in heaven who are only together on eclipse days -definitely I need to confine you to a madhouse, you already started to wander, come on Alara stop saying stupid things and let's look for our parents and the honoree of the day you know that if we are not on time we will have a good time Alara: ok I'm shut up, you're right After those words of cousin we start the search throughout the garden to find our parents, although the task becomes more difficult since every five steps I have to stop to greet a different nobleman, I even begin to lose patience until I hear someone calling me and then I turn in all directions trying to locate the sound until there in a corner of the garden I find my best friend leaning against a tree drinking a drink so together with Alara I start the walk at a fast pace until I arrive to the -It's a pleasure to see you Julián after how many months without hearing from you Julián: or come on don't be resentful Almita was on a diplomatic mission in another system, leave that bitter face and give your best friend a hug Alara: and I am a doll painted on the wall, you do not see me say or wave little mermaid Julián: hello llama, do not get excited, there is Julián for everyone, you know that I love you very much -Enough lovebirds better tell me Julián have you seen our parents or my cousin Megara Julian: I haven't seen your parents but I saw your cousin rehearsing near the bridge in the south wing of the garden. She seemed to be very nervous -Come on Alara sure knows where our parents are Alara: go ahead, I'll catch up with you now, I have something to talk about with the little mermaid -I said I spend their lives fighting but deep down they love each other And with those words floating in the air and without getting any response, I turn and head towards the place that Julián indicated as the possible place to find Megara. Ten minutes of slow walking later I approach the place where Julián indicated me when I begin to hear the voice of my cousin screaming Megara: stupid vermin you don't even know how to walk you threw juice on my dress you will see what will happen to you I am going to order you to be locked up in the dungeon for abnormal. You just ruined my party The closer I was, the more I jump, the screams were heard so I accelerated my pace until I reached the place where they came from and to my surprise I find Megara who has just summoned her sword from her newly acquired flagship brand and was about to brandish it. against the nocent waiter when suddenly a hand stops his and I hear a powerful and penetrating voice that says -Megara but what happens you have gone crazy Megara: let go of me, I'm going to finish off this vermin, this is not your concern, this is my planet. And it is then when I come out of my stupor and pronounce -High Megara is enough For the moment my cousin is frozen in place, lowers her sword and slowly turns to me Megara: Alma, but what are you doing here? -I don't know cousin, maybe congratulate you on your ceremony but look at my surprise when I find you about to kill an innocent man, and I don't dare tell me that I have nothing to say because I'm sure you won't like the I am going to give you an answer, and I am totally sure that my aunt would hate if I stained her neat lawn with the blood of an innocent As I speak she blushes and her emotions change by the minute I know because it is reflected in her eyes but at the end she exhales a deep sigh and says Megara: but you don't see that I spill juice on my dress, it's useless, I don't know why you defend it As she speaks her tone grows and for the last word it seems the scream of a deranged -maybe because you could cause an intergalactic incident with your stupid whims and hysteria that could endanger your planet a few steps from here there are diplomats from all the kingdoms of the solar system so lower your voice and reassure yourself once and for all. What worries you is the dress, well I'll fix it I raise my hand and summon my energy in a few seconds her dress is like new Megara: I still don't understand how you can do these things, it is true that our people control the elements and your people control the energy of the moon, but your power goes beyond that. -You don't need to understand anything Megara, all you have to do is put a good face on yourself and tell more parents that I'm looking for them Megara, although reluctant, turns around and slowly leaves the place when I can no longer hear her footsteps, I extend my hand to the waiter who is still kneeling on the ground and I say -Everything is fine now, you are safe and calm I will talk to Alara so that she watches that Megara does not bother you again The waiter grabs my hand and stands up And that's when I ask -what's your name -My name is Pedro, your highness, thank you very much for saving me, I had never seen Princess Megara in these conditions -My cousin has a strong character and it seems that her nerves could, now we go back to work and calmly I would never let an innocent be killed in front of me The deer turns and goes back to work and that's when I hear that piercing, masculine voice again -I had never seen Megara in those conditions, nor obey someone so fast or even her parents, by the way it is a pleasure to meet her I think they had never introduced us -no have never been introduced I mention while extending my hand my name is Alma and I am the crown princess of the Moon and it is a pleasure to meet you The man gives me an unfathomable look during what seems to me you pray until he shakes my hand and pronounces -I am the crown prince of the sun and my name is Rajib
