"Have you ever wanted to be queen?" said young Fabian to the crimson-haired princess.
"Not wanted but I'm going to be to once my grandfather dies, this is who I'm preparing for and that is my life!" said Calista.
"What will happen when you become queen? Will, you still love me? Will we still, be together?" he said grasping her face with both hands, he had thought of this many times and feared that he would always be her second priority and her toy. "Tell me Calista, what am I to you?"
Her eyes tried to stare somewhere else.
"What am I to you?!"
"I, I love you. The future is uncertain and I don't like promising things because of that, what I can promise you is that love is forever and love never disappears. It may fade as much it can increase but it will always be in someone's heart"
Calista was right, thousand and five hundred years later and his love for Calista remained. He sobbed as he watched the play, many people stared at him but he didn't mind.
One kid in the wings of the stage began to speak "A day of August baby of crimson hair was born, because of the extreme beauty she was named Calista. She was raised by her grandparents because when she was just 5 months old her parents were eaten by wolves. King Montgomery took rule once again because Calista could still not take the role. She grew up and became a beautiful princess but by the age of 23, her grandfather died for unknown reasons but it was very sudden. So many people wanted the crown including Cuzleniks or other kings but the Queen had prepared her magical abilities to have all of the whipped off and with that, she had in power more and more land." during the narrator spoke the children with colorful costumes acted which was quite funny considering that Fabian was very emotional "Her wisdom and strength led her to cultivate her lands correctly, we wish for the best in the harvest!" The children took a bow and left the scene.
" You need to know more" said Finn.
"I think i heard enough..." said Fabian.
"I think that for you to properly let go is know how her story ended, if you never do then you will keep on plundering what happened to her." said the white haired friend.
"I dont think that would help Finn" responded Fabian.
"No, Fabian i think Finn is right, you still believe she will come back..." said Alondra. "You deserve to give her a proper goodbye!"
"Thank you Alondra someone finally agreed with me! I think I'm gonna start liking you to take care of the fawn."
"Thousand years and he still can't take care of himself, it's like having a child"
They both crossed their legs and took a sip of the sweet wine.
"You know I'm still listening right?"
"Calm down my child calm down," said Alondra brushing his hair with her fingers.
"Alondra! I finally found you! It's time to go to the festival!" said Cassandra as she took her cousin's hand and they both began running like small children Cassandra taking the lead.
"See you, boys, later!"
-----------------
The royal family was always seated at top of a booth reserved for the king and queen and any of their child(ren). Cassandra, Alondra, and the former queen have also received a seat but below them in another booth. W
"Hello dear!" said Alondra's mom and placed a kiss on her daughter's forehead.
"Hello mama!" she tightly grasped the hand of her mama. "I love you, mama."
"I love you too baby girl"
"Look I brought matching tote bags so we can catch candy!" Cassandra said as she handed me the tote.
"Mama, aren't you gonna get mad?"
"No why should I? I brought one myself look it says...." then she went on with a whole rampage of her bag, her other mother would never do such thing she always stayed quiet and would never talk about those 'hideous tote bags'.
Out of nowhere, Harvey enters the booth "Have you seen Creed!?". We all shook our heads. "I can't find him anywhere I think we are going to go on lockdown."
"Maybe he's just in the streets having fun, let him be a kid Harvey!"
"But maybe she..."
"Who is 'she'?"
"Nevermind just stay put I'll keep looking for Creed" he blasted off running, his face was pale and his eyes full of fear.
"What did Harvey do this time?"
Alondra clutched her bag "I don't know but he did something big. I have to go look for him." she exited the room.
"Baby wait!" exclaimed her mother but she ran kept running.
A crowd of people were outside, it was easy to find the freckles boy.
"Duchess Alondra we haven't seen you in ages!"
"Duchess what is going on with the festival it should have started by now!"
"Ma'am, please bless my baby!"
"I'm sorry but I don't have time for this!" she kept on running, she could hear the air as she walked by. People kept on coming between her but nothing was about to stop her. She grabbed Fabian hand and pulled him away from the dozens and dozens of people in the crowd.
"Fabian I need your help!"
"What happened?"
"Creed....." she was trying to gain her breath back "Creed is missing!"
"What do you mean he is missing?"
"What if someone who is chasing us took him? You know well a single Cuzlenik can destroy a whole kingdom I think it can destroy a 10 year old much quicker. " she covered her eyes and began to sob "What if it's all my fault!?"
"Maybe he just went walking around! He's a kid, he can't be trapped in the 4 walls your family has him in!"
"No I know him better he is not okay! I feel something has to do with magic! It's a gut feeling and I know it's always right! Please tell me you know what going on!"
"If you insist on it having to do with a magic well let me tell you something! Creed has magical abilities that not one single child his age has, his power is immense. Believe me it's hard to destroy a 10 year old with that power so please call down!"
"Someone killed you and you have great power too so how can they not destroy Creed!"
"Creed has a power bigger than mine when I was 25 so he will be fine! Although he doesn't know how to use them!"
"Besides how are you so sure of this?"
"I saw him perform spells that take people years to achieve and perfect, he did that on his first try. Also, Cuzlenik isn't the only ones who have the power there are also witches but unlike Cuzlenik they only have the power to heal so if he came across one of them I is safe!"
"Do you think someone knew of this power?"
"Most likely considering magical abilities in your family are terrible and Anahita has no magical powers what so ever so they were given to him somehow"
"Maybe Creed isn't Harvey's child..."
"No, he has many facial traits similar to Harvey so it's most likely his. But what I'm sure if is that whoever took Creed knows of his abilities and wants to take advantage."
