in a land far away from Ortania was located the Kingdom of Navarre led by King Alexander, a political figure and reformist, King Alexander was by far the best king Navarre had ever had, as it turned morning time Alexander got out of his royal bedroom and headed to the throne room, Navarres Royal palace was located in Rathnire the capital of Navarre, as Alexander was seated on his throne, the princess of Navarre, Princess Isabell entered the room and she was fuming with anger, as she approached Alexander the king asked
Alexander : Is everything alright?
Isabell : oh yes, everything is amazing it couldn't have been better.
Alexander : oh ok.
Alexander peacefully laid back as Isabell screamed angrily
Isabell : yeah go on rest, it's not like a revolution has happened and subsequent Democratic revolution is underway.
Alexander nearly fell of his seat as he asked
Alexander : what, where?!
Isabell : Ortania.
Alexander : I knew it, that Sufiyan was a total fool.
Isabell : a man by the name of Ashhad has became king of Ortania through a revolution and he is trying to justify his rule via a democratic revolution.
Alexander : if a revolutionary becomes king of Ortania, our allies could be in great danger.
Isabell : forget your allies and think about yourself, you already have 3 hostile nations on your border and those allies that you're worrying about are nothing but puppets dependent on you for protection.
Alexander : this is terrible, I know, I'll supply both my allies to keep an eye Ortania.
Isabell : oh and don't forget to tell that Griffin fellow to muster up a defense, he's been really lazy as of recent.
the second Isabell said that a man wielding a scythe entered the room, he had white hairs, red eyes and unlike everybody he wore a black suit with fancy yellow colored designs on it, this was Richard Griffin, Navarres minister of defense as he came to Isabell and said
Griffin : hey hoe, how's it going?
Isabell : we were just talking about you.
Griffin : really?
Alexander : Isabell told me that you've been a bit lazy as of recent.
Griffin : this bit*h has a habit of speaking shit about me, mark my words If my mouth ever opened you'd lose your position in a matter of seconds.
Alexander : now now Griffin their's no need to fight.
Isabell : yeah go fight those Ortanians atleast than you'd be benefiting us.
Griffin : don't tell me you're invading Ortania again?
Alexander : they just had a revolution, and although they're at their weakest right now, an invasion would be worthless as they would be a very rebellious territory to hold on to.
Griffin : we don't even border them, an invasion would be least profitable for us.
just then a soldier entered the room, he approached Isabell and handed her a letter and immediately left, seeing the letter Alexander asked
Alexander : what's that Isabell?
Isabell : one of my spies in Ortania sent me this, I had asked him to gather Intel on their prominent leaders.
Isabell opened the letter and after reading it fully she said
Isabell : ok so two people one by the name of Ashhad Khan and the other by the name of Mike Morrison are their two prominent leaders.
Alexander : if either one or both of them die, Ortania would most definitely collapse.
Griffin looked at his reflection in the blade of his scythe and said to himself
Griffin : that's an easy task, I'm the best killer around.
back in Ortania Ashhad had woken up and he and his friends were all seated in the dining room of the royal palace as Hussnain said
Hussnain : I have never in my life seen such a beautiful dining room.
Asad : this is nothing compared to my villa back on earth.
Ashhad : I'm honestly savoring every moment of this royal life, cause today might just be my last day as King.
Zulqarnain : if God wills it than no one can beat you.
Asad : this election was the worst decision you ever took.
Ashhad : stop blaming it on me ok, had I refused a civil war would've started.
Asad : oh well now we're gonna be ousted anyway.
Kainaat : hey don't be so down, their's still a chance that we might win.
Alyne : and even if this is our last day as rulers of Ortania, we atleast achieved our main goal of ousting Sufiyan.
Nizaam : yeah our main goal is now complete and in my opinion Mike doesn't seem like a bad guy.
Hussnain : niether was Sufiyan but look how that ended.
Asad : enough said, let's eat.
Ashhad : absolutely.
the friends enjoyed a delicious breakfast after which they all set out on different tasks, Asad, Zulqarnain, Humzah, Hussnain and Nizaam went out to spread propaganda pamphlets to all the people so that Ashhad could get more votes while Ashhad went around the royal palace, the walls of the building told the history of Ortania, a history full of wars and valor, their was also a place where the portraits of all former Kings were hanging including that of Sufiyan, that was when Ashhad heard someone ask
? : fascinating isn't it?
Ashhad turned around to see that it was Kainaat, he looked back at the portraits and said
Ashhad : wonder if my pictures gonna hang their.
Kainaat : I'm 110% sure you are going to stay our King.
Ashhad : let's hope so.
Kainaat : by the way have you seen Nizaam?
Ashhad : he went out with the rest to spread propaganda pamphlets.
Kainaat : I hope he revoked Saad's citizenship.
Ashhad : Kainaat, I don't want to anger you but have you ever considered forgiving Saad?
Kainaat : just cause you're my friend I'll let it slide, had it been somebody else I would've probably broken their jaw.
Ashhad : so you're not forgiving him?
Kainaat : I will never forgive him, he robbed me of my dignity, my honor and most importantly the feeling of motherhood.
Kainaat got a bit teary as she wiped it and said
Kainaat : you can't understand Ashhad, how horrible life is when you can't become a parent.
Kainaat left but Ashhad saw it in her eyes she was in deep pain and along with that pain was burning the fire of revenge, nevertheless Ashhad spent the day enjoying the wonders of the royal palace and Stevenburg as a whole, the day passed by quickly and soon it had turned evening, the friends were all in the throne room discussing about the big day ahead of them as Zulqarnain said
Zulqarnain : I delivered a pamphlet to each and every doorstep.
Asad : I delivered it to each citizen individually.
Ashhad : you guys did a great job, I'm proud of all of you.
Kainaat : hey Nizaam.
Nizaam : yes?
Kainaat : did you revoke Saad's citizenship?
Nizaam : no.
Kainaat : you should after all he said it himself that he doesn't deserve to be called an Ortanian anymore.
Nizaam : he was upset when he said that, I'm sure he didn't mean it.
Kainaat : do it he deserves to be punished.
Ashhad : he already lost his position, don't you think that's enough?
Kainaat : you call that a punishment, Ashhad he deserves much worse.
Ashhad : listen Kainaat, I know you dislike him but I promised to leave him alone as long as he didn't interfere in state affairs.
Kainaat : you did, not me.
Ashhad : what do you mean?
Kainaat : if this really is a democracy than let's vote to decide Saad's fate, all in favor of revoking Saad's citizenship raise your hands.
Kainaat, Aliza, Alyne and Humzah rose their hands as Kainaat asked
Kainaat : Zulqarnain?
Zulqarnain : I'm not in favor of revoking Saad's citizenship.
Hussnain : niether am I.
Nizaam : same here.
Ashhad : me and Asad also disapprove Kainaat's decision.
Asad : actually I support Kainaat.
Ashhad : what?!
Kainaat : thankyou Asad, now Nizaam revoke his citizenship.
Nizaam : I'm not your servant and niether is Saad, I will not revoke his citizenship over such worthless reasons.
Nizaam left the room in anger as Kainaat shouted
Kainaat : Nizaam get back here and face me!
Aliza : Ashhad why are you favoring a criminal over Kainaat?
Alyne : yeah what's gotten into you?
Zulqarnain : you are the de facto and maybe even the incumbent government of Ortania, yet you are fighting over such a fruitless endeavor, instead of bickering over Saad's citizenship, you should focus on the betterment of the nation.
Kainaat : I may have been helpless and alone but I won't let any other girl fall victim to Saad's lust.
after saying this Kainaat left, Alyne, Aliza and Humzah also left shortly afterwards, when they had left Zulqarnain comforted Ashhad by saying
Zulqarnain : she's a bit upset right now but I'm sure she'll get over it.
Asad : well done Zulqarnain, instead of teaching him that majority makes the decisions you're telling him that she'll get over it.
Hussnain : oh for goodness sake Asad shut up.
Asad : jeez, you guys need to learn to respect democracy.
Hussnain : democracy my foot, now scram or I'll mess you up.
Asad : sheesh alright alright I'm leaving.
Asad left as Zulqarnain said
Zulqarnain : don't worry Ashhad, as long as I'm alive no one can boss you around.
Hussnain : no one's gonna boss my king around, Ashhad you have my support.
Ashhad : thanks guys, I'm gonna go get some fresh air, see you in five.
Ashhad left and as he did Hussnain said
Hussnain : he seems upset.
Zulqarnain didn't give any remarks, outside the palace, Ashhad went around Stevenburg looking at the people who were busy in the daily work, while walking down the street Ashhad heard a familiar voice calling him
? : hey Ashhad!
Ashhad turned around and it was Mike as he walked up to him and asked
Mike : how's it going king?
Ashhad : great, how's your campaign going?
Mike : fantastic, this might be a bit early to say this but I think that I have a majority or atleast an equal amount of voters as you.
Ashhad : we'll see.
Mike : if your free, than why don't you come over to my place, we may be rivals in the eyes of the public but I don't mind being friends.
Ashhad : sure, I have a lot of free time.
Mike : great let's go.
the two made their way over to Mike's house, it was a small cottage located at the end of the street, inside were the following things, a bed, a table with a lamp, a kitchen and a large collection of books as Ashhad admiringly said
Ashhad : my your house is beautiful.
Mike : thanks.
Ashhad : your book collection is impressive to.
Mike : my personal favorites are The Kid and Hell Land.
Ashhad : same.
Mike : I'll go get something to drink, please have a seat.
Ashhad : thankyou.
Ashhad sat down and Mike went to the kitchen, in a few seconds Mike came back with two glass of orange juice as he sat down with Ashhad, he gave one glass to Ashhad and just as he took his first sip, a knock happened on Mike's door as Ashhad asked
Ashhad : were you expecting someone?
Mike : no.
Mike went to the door opened it, standing outside was Griffin, his red demon like eyes, white hair and black suit made Mike a bit intimidated, Mike asked
Mike : greetings, can I uh ... help you?
Griffin asked in a very deep voice
Griffin : yes, can I please come inside?
Mike : uh ... sure.
Griffin : thankyou.
Griffin entered the cottage and when he saw Ashhad he said
Griffin : oh my if it isn't the king of Ortania Ashhad Khan.
Ashhad : greetings, Mike is he your cabinet member?
Mike : no.
Ashhad : what's your name big fella?
Griffin : death.
Ashhad : that's a funny name.
Griffin : it's not death actually, it's your death.
Ashhad : what?
Griffin pulled out his scythe as Ashhad got up and asked
Ashhad : what the heck, what is this?!
Mike : Mr please leave.
Griffin's voice suddenly changed as he said
Griffin : no.
this terrified both Ashhad and Mike as Ashhad took out his sword and said
Ashhad : I think you didn't hear him when he told you to leave.
Griffin began to laugh uncontrollably as Ashhad asked
Ashhad : what's so funny?
Griffin : that blade of yours will do you no good.
Ashhad : oh really, than take this!
Ashhad attacked Griffin but his sword went through Griffin's body, Ashhad was completely caught off guard by this as Griffin smiled gleefully and said
Griffin : told you.
Ashhad looked at Griffin in horror and asked
Ashhad : who are you?
Griffin grabbed Ashhad from his neck and lifted him in the air, he replied in his menacing voice
Griffin : your death.
just then Mike screamed
Mike : let him go!
Griffin : ok.
Griffin threw Ashhad aside like a bag of trash and in the blink of an eye attacked Mike, knocking him down, with his scythe Griffin delivered multiple hits to Mike, Ashhad got behind Griffin to jump him but, Griffin turned around, lifted his scythe and brought it down with full force, a shock wave erupted and blew Ashhad away, Ashhad went flying and crashed into the bookshelf, all the books fell on top of him as Mike shouted
Mike : leave him alone!!
Mike jumped Griffin and tried to knock him down since Mike had no weapons or armor so Griffin easily overpowered him, Ashhad got up and Griffin immediately charged charged at him and knocked him down, Mike quickly grabbed a glass full of orange juice and threw it on Griffin, Griffin growled angrily
Griffin : you'll pay for that!
Griffin turned around and attacked Mike, Ashhad stood back up, seeing this Mike screamed at the top of his lungs
Mike : Ashhad run!!
despite not wanting to Ashhad ran away, Mike died a lonely and painful death, Ashhad felt ashamed that he left Mike like that but he knew all to well that he couldn't defeat Griffin so maybe running was his best if not only option, Ashhad kept running nonstop without looking back eventually, he made it back to the royal palace, hurt but still alive.
