Chapter 7

The boys kept on with their duty, and Hunkins kept on talking to the broom

"Sweep i say" he said this so many times hoping he had some magical powers to command the broom. His brothers kept laughing at him everytime it failed.

" We really need to be done with this, we get back to our case. Derrick has been looking for us, called early this morning" Hunkins said to his brothers.

"I bet one of the heroes had something to do with this, from his description of the one who threatened him" John added.

"But why, and how can we get Derrick to see any of them, its not even allowed for us to tell him about any if this" Meshack asked his brothers who were now not sweeping anymore.

"We can take a picture of them, we just have to find where they are" Hunkins said. Putting his broom aside. "Who is in for a palace tour"

The boys began with their strategic plan of using the advantage of their punishment to their benefit. They went room after room pretending to be cleaning everytime they would meet with someone. They had now left the west wing of the palace to the east wing where royalty was, it was almost noon with no results when they came across a hall with painting on the wall, they followed through the long trail as they looked at the people on the walls it was all boys in four pairs.

"How big is this place!!" John said exhausted already.

"So big as to know we definately dont know our way back to our side of the palace" Meshack joked.

"Guys , i think i found something, here see this are the paintings our four suspects;the Diraks" Hunkins interupted their small chat. Ahead the hall filled with painting was a big door that was so tall and on both sides it had hand sculptures that appeared to be they way in.

"Wow, " John said placing one of his hand to see if it fits, when suddenly the door opened its two big doors to them.They all looked at each other unbelievably as they walked in. The door shut itself behind them, looking around they noticed the four seats that were made of gold , each with a crown.

"This must be the crown room" John said staring at the crowns on each seat.

"It feels like a sacred place, " Meshack added.

"And this seats are so comfortable " Hunkins said seating on one of them. Meshack and John went ahead and sat next to where Hunkins was. The room had a sudden flash of light and the crowns on top of the highest corner on each seat , raised high before landing to their heads.

"Whats happening,i think we should leave this place" Meshack said trying to get up and get the crown of his head. But the more he tried the more it sank in and he screamed out in pain, "help!!" He yelled. His brothers noticing this tried getting of the seats and getting off the crown but had the same experience as they all yelled in pain as the crown got deep into there skulls.

"Aaaah....We need to hide someone is coming , " Hunkins cried in pain as he whispered. "Quick behind the seats" They dragged themselves behind the majestic seats as there heads ached like never before , regretting the choice of coming to this room.

Meshack was now passing out and they all were behind the seats the pain was umbearable and in a few seconds the other two boys passed out in that sacred place.

Queen Angelica and King Gerald walked in, after saying some magical words that opened the door.

"I guess this is the only place private enough, someone is intefearing with our plans my king" the queen said to her husband.

"What do you mean?" He asked holding his beard.

"I could not hypnotise the humans to do as you had said, i think they are back" she said scared which got the king angry.

"No!it is not possible my father chased them all away, he killed the only person that could stand in our way" the king shouted as he moved uneasy about the room.

"Then it must be the queendomians, who else is our enemy"Queen Angelica suggested " the people must never find the truth and so make sure our plan is not compromised, talk to your father" she continued.

"If that woman is truly alive then she won't be no more, i will make sure of that. You make sure the warriors are ready, it feels like war is going to come early!" He said before they both walked out.

Lorna was out training, the prince had managed to take her earlier before her sister or even Mark could get to her. The other students were being trained as well by the assigned tutors on the basics.

"No this is how you hold it" Japheth said to Lorna who was trying to hold an arrow before releasing it to hit its target, he came closer to her by her back , as he stretched his hand to help her hold it the right way.

"You then look straight to your target making sure its in allignment with the arrow head" he continued as he breathed at her neck causing every hair on her body to stand straight, she was now enjoying his sweet scent and the deep voice he had.

"Sweet friend , dont let my brother charms , confuse you. You will be shocked how soon he forgets you as soon as another fresh student comes next year" Georgina interupted their sweet moment.

"Ow sister, must you ruin every moment i have , now charms dont listen to her, " he said as he instructed her to release it, it went straight ahead hitting the target. " There!, good!"he said congratulating her.

"Lorna how about i show you a better move you can be more than arrow woman!" Georgina said as she took one of the arrow and its bow hitting all the targets. "This is always the easy one"

Mark who was incharge of surveying how the trainings were going came to where they were.

"Some great progress here!" He commented looking at Lorna "seems beauty is not only your super power sweet Lorna" he finished coming closer to where she was , which irritated the prince causing him to push him back.

"Back off uncle , she is mine" he said looking threatengly to him.

"I doubt that, nephew" Mark said smirking as he looked at how pissed of he was. Lorna looked at Georgina hoping she would do something to stop whatever was about to start.

"Dont worry they are always on each others neck" Georgina whispered to Lorna. "okay boys thats enough!" Georgina jumped in to the heated argument that was just getting started.

"See you later charms" Mark said as he flew off after kissing her hand. Japheth was called to duty by the king. Leaving the two girls to continue with their training as Lorna's mind would every now and then wander off to her brothers who she hadn't heard off today. "It is unlike them to keep that low" she thought.

"So, a prince and a heroe , tell me girl who you going for?" Georgina brought her back to reality.

"Come on, none has said anything about courting me, so yeah no one." Lorna said throwing a fist into the air as Georgina directed her.

"I hope you choose none of them, infact we should go out sometime get you to meet other people who are definately not my bossy uncle or even annoying brother" Georgina said missing the blow sent by Lorna as she held her hand pulling her to the ground. "attention is key "
