Chapter 28
Dark shadow figure/Royal Prince cont.
The screeching of the Queens voice snaps me out of my thoughts. I stare shocked at what the Queen just screamed at me. ‘Phoenix? That can’t be right. Surely, she has lost her mind right. There are no Phoenix’s left the King and Queen killed them all off’ my thoughts are going haywire. Maybe the Queen finally lost her marbles.
“Oh, we are so f*cked” the spirit mutters in my head.
“Where. Did. This. Feather. COME FROM” the Queen screams again. Every word was said louder than the last as well saying it slow like I am some dimwit. Also does she think yelling at me is going to make me answer her with the truth.
“I don’t know” I respond
“OOoh do you see that, her face is going purple. I wonder if her brain is about to explode. Question other if a super’s brain explodes does that permanently kill them?” my spirit asks.
“Dear you must be mistaken Phoenix’s have been dead many years now there is no way that what you are holding is in fact a Phoenix feather. Surely it must be an old one” The King says as he walks closer to the Queen.
“Do you think that I am stupid, you dumb bastard? This is a Phoenix feather” The Queens screams as she waves it around.
I watch as the king walks closely and looks at the feather. He inspects the feather closely before moving the feather over to the fire place. I watch as the Queen continues to stare at the King before snapping at him.
“Well, is it a Phoenix feather? It certainly looks like one” the Queens snaps pacing back and forward.
I watch the Queen pace as she talks to herself about killing off the problem and that there is no way that a Phoenix could survive what they did to them. She continues to pace talking and ranting to herself. I don’t know what made me look at the King but the Spirit had been keeping him in his sights.
I watch as the continues to look at the feather with great intensity. “Did you see that?” my spirit asks. “No, see what?” I ask.
“The King” the spirit says again. But we are interrupted by the breaking of some glass. Turning around I look at the Queen yelling and screaming now upset that there could be a phoenix in their mists.
“The King” the spirit says.
I whip back around and see The King sigh before turning to look at me. When the King’s eyes meet mine, I see shock in his eyes before he covers it up.
“What did I miss” I ask my spirit
The King threw the feather into the fire along with a silver brew. It made the fire burn bright and change from yellow orange to red, purple and gold it only lasted for a few minutes before everything returned to normal.
“We are dealing with a Phoenix; fire only reacts like that with a Phoenix as they are fire as well.” The Spirit says.
“It was no Phoenix Queen, I held it to the fire and instead of making the fire burn bright it burnt to cinders. I believe we have a rebellion brewing that is creating feathers that look like a Phoenix’s feather” The King snaps.
The Queens stops pacing and snaps her attention to the King. “Really?” The Queen asks.
“Yes, look for yourself but the feather is almost completely gone” The King says completely calm.
I look at the King as he stares at the Queen. There is something there. Something that we are missing I say to my spirit.
“We are missing quiet a lot” my spirit says.
“What are we missing, I don’t know exactly but there is no way we leaving this here. If the little fire ball is in fact a Phoenix, we need to know every danger that could hurt her. We need to know her enemies” the spirit says
“She will be hunted” I say to my spirit.
“She is already hunted; the difference is that the hunters don’t know who she is exactly and she doesn’t know who she is either” my spirit says.
We watch as the Queen rushes to the fire and sees the last little bit of the feather burn up. I see the Queen smile and the tension leave her shoulders.
“That’s great, right?” the Queen says smiling at the King before turning back towards the fire.
The King smiles back at the Queen but there is no sincerity in the smile. It is fake with a little worry chucked in at the same time.
“You saw that right spirit?” I ask in my head.
“I did, I also saw the smile on the King’s face when he smelt the feather. If the little fire ball is in fact a Phoenix this could mean that the prophecy has begun. We need to get to the little fire ball. We need to protect her” The spirit responds.
“Protect her from my parents you mean?” I ask That is not going to be an easy feat. There is already so many things that I hate about my parents. If my parents are now also hunting my future mate then this means that life is about to get a lot more complicated. It is also just another thing that I have to watch for, but no one will take my mate away from me.
“This isn’t going to be easy, is it?” I ask my spirit.
“No and yes. Mostly we need to protect her during the prophecy. If what she is, is in fact a Phoenix she is our other half and we won’t know that until she joins with her Phoenix. But there is a chance that she will reject her Phoenix and if she does” the spirit trails off.
“What will happen?” I snap
“She will cease to exist. She will die they both will” the spirit says with a sad voice.
