Ramses woke up thirsty,he sat up and looked Carolene's way.
She was drooling and smiling in her sleep with a hand over her abdomen.
Usually she never laid on the same bed with him but here she was today on Fiona's bed and next to him.
With both hands he hit her abdomen severally in attempt to wake her but she only stirred and turned the other way.
Then he looked up ahead.
She had also left the door open.
He grinned and jumped off the bed, landing on his feet, something unusual for a child his age.
Then he returned to a position with four limbs and crawled towards the door.
Ramses exited Fiona's bed chamber and crawled out of the main door into the hallway, giggling joyfully as he did.
It was his first time out of the prison his father had made from his mother's quarters for some reason he did not know but he had always longed for this day...
His thirst could wait,right now he needed to explore.
His thirst to see out side Fiona's chamber drove him instead and farther down the hall way.
Ramses took a bend passed a stone pavement till he sighted a fountain with a huge statue of a woman with a crown in front of it.
The woman held a scepter by her side in one hand and the other,she placed on her waist.
He approached it,stood Infront of it and posed in the same manner, placing an arm on his waist and stretching the other out.
He smiled as he did,satisfied then he crawled to the water fall,stuck his hand in it then trashed the water,as he spilled some on his face he drank some and the rest he spat back into the pool.
When he had had enough of the water,he walked on, further away from Fiona's bed chamber and towards the servants quarters.
Ramses crawled by two maid who stopped to take in what they had just seen.
"Looks like what we percieved from afar....what is he?he doesn't smell like a Demon at all"one of them told the other.
"And why does he have a silver hair?... I've never seen anything like it".
"Should we keep him?"the maid eyed her colleague for a response.
She was replied with a nod as the maid walked towards Ramses.
Hearing footsteps behind him,he turned and sighted them then he began crawling even faster.
The maid caught up to him and lifted him in her face.
She smiled widely but Ramses hated it.
Ramses struggled to get off but her grip was stronger,then he spat in her face and when she freed him of an arm,he found an opening.
He pulled his diaper loose and finally let loose the liquid he had held in since he left Fiona's chamber.
After the diaper landed in the maid's hand the urine projected straight into her face,totally turning her smile into a frown and a look of disgust as she dropped him.
Ramses landed on his feet and loud gasp escaped the other maid's mouth as she saw this bewildered by what she had just seen,a baby in the like of him shouldn't be standing but the way he landed,she was no longer sure of what she was seeing.
The little Demon raised his head proudly to see the look on the maid's face.
Now he loved what he was seeing,even the way she tried to wipe it off,it filled him with so much joy that he couldn't help but giggle.
Ramses pulled out a tongue to the shocked maid and resorted to running with his feet.
The shocked maid touched the other and pointed towards Ramses as he ran.
Her mouth went agape as they both stared with no intention of getting any closer to him.
"Tell me we are not seeing things"one said to the other.
"We are not....but...but we are...how in the world_"
"Hold on...he is coming from the direction of the demised empress...I heard she gave birth to a son which no one ever saw before her demise,could this be the reason..."the Maid paused to wipe of the urine finding it's way towards her lips,"Could this be the reason?... because he is a monster?"
"We must get him...for a reward,from the emperor".
They exchanged nods and walked in the direction Ramses had taken while clinging to each other.
************************
Carolene stirred before her eyes flew open...it was morning and the sun had already risen in the sky.she had overslept again.
She sat up and looked over at where she had laid Ramses the night before but he wasn't there.
She rubbed on her eyes and looked once again.This Time her eyes widened.
He was gone,for real,then her gaze drifted to the open door and her jaws fell open.
Carolene flew out of bed and swiftly ran towards the door.
"Your majesty!"she called out as she ran out and swung the door to her room open.
He wasn't there.
She sniffed in the air and ran into the only kitchen in Fiona's quarters,took out a knife and went towards the main door.
She must have forgotten to close the door last night and Ramses had crawled out.
Her funeral rites had already been prepared by her own self.
Panting rentlessly, Carolene ran down the hallway, following Ramses's scent, her chest heaving as countless thoughts ran through her mind.
What if he was found by the people who wanted him dead?how would she explain this to the emperor
That was her greatest fear.
Outside Delu's barrier,his scent could be percieved by just anyone and he would easily be caught.
She knew Tyran,he wouldn't even let her explain,her head would already be separated from her body once he noticed his son was missing.
Though he was away for the hunt,she had no idea when he would return,that was her next greatest fear.
Carolene ran,taking several stops to throw wide few doors she knew was open.
************************
"I smell it!"queen Aries said as she hopped to her feet.
Queen Aries,queen of Urah and wife of king Maxmillian had decided to wait for her husband and she had waited all day with ears itching to hear some news she deemed positive from the hunt.
She was an average height demon with a curly brown hair that fell effortlessly down her shoulders to the level of her mid thrunk,only giving way for her pointy ears.
Combined with her face and huge beautiful grey eyes,she managed to look both innocent and beautiful but deep under the deceptive figures hid a born killer,an upper midtier demon,same with her husband that would kill any living thing without a second thought or feeling of guilt.
"What do you smell your highness"her maid responded with a smile while looking into her eyes."The baby kicking?"
The queen held her protruding abdomen and turned to the maid.
"Not my baby you idiot!"she snapped and stared up ahead
"It's him....it must be him...stay here!"
A wide smirk formed on her face as she approached the door.
The abominable being they had been looking for all these while,the universe had delivered him into her hands and on such a perfect day when the Emperor was away.
As she swung the door open she braced herself to battle who ever he was with him as long as it wasn't Tyran.
Today, not even her pregnancy would get in the way.She was beyond prepared to end his life.
