The young knight walked swiftly through the castle, reaching the throne room quickly.He bowed low. "Sire, we have a problem."He said in a voice that sounded too old for him. The king looked up "What is it?Another one of those peasant revolts?" "Not exactly sire." "What do you mean?" "The bandit queen Anella has declared war on us Sire." "What?!"He hissed standing up"That wench and her band of rats dare to declare war on my kingdom of Dragoon?Outrageous!We will squash them quickly."He turned to the knight"Send word to all our allies, they should know even if we will not need their help." "Yes Sire."He said with a final bow "Outragious.."the king muttered "outrageous."
*********** six months later.
A haggard looking knight ran through the castle to the throne room. "They are here for the negotiations Sire" The king looked up"Yes,yes.."He said gruffly"Send them in." Two figures stepped through the doors.One was a man with hair as white as snow and piercing green eyes.The other was a fierce looking woman, she was tall and had her long golden hair pulled back from her face. "Hello.."She sneered"your majesty."

"So, did Rose have a boy or a girl?" Dione asked, cleaning her fingernails with her knife again. "Girl." Laura said with a deep sigh that she added to just about every other sentance. "They named it Violet." "After the horse?" "Yes." "Damn fools." "Why are all of you just sitting around here anyway?" Saria asked. "We're waiting for news about Dragoon. Markus and his wife went to get it." Raythor said, somewhat vicously. "How's married life working out for you?" Ketra asked, shifting slightly. "Don't ask. I don't want to have to kill one of you." "Ouch." "Don't take it personally. He acts that way to all of us." Laura soothed. "What about you and Roy?" Raythor asked, slightly less vicously. "Ah..." Laura trailed off. "I don't know if it's anything serious, really."

A young boy ran in. "I-I have news from Dragoon."He stuttered looking nervious."T-there is hope for a treaty, t-to be drawn by h-his magesty and the bandit queen Anella and king Talith."He looked around the room again."Are any of you the prince Markus or princess Rose?"he said meekly. *********** "So..."Anella said with cold sarcasm"You hope for peace?You wish for us to come to an agreement?" The king clenched his teeth"Yes." "So what do you propose?" There was a deep sigh"I will give you a peice of my kingdom for you and your 'army' and appoint you barroness, and you will leave me in peace." Anellas eyes narrowed."I don't think so.." "What?!"The king said his eyes bulging "I think you will give your crown to me and leave this kingdom." "HOW DARE YOU!"He roared jumping up"YOU WENCH, YOU PEICE OF FITH, HOW DA-"He stopped mid sentance, his eyes still popping out of his head and fell dead.Anella threw the bloody knife on the floor and lifted the crown off his head. "Send news to Everglade."She said to the page who had been watching in horror"There is a new ruler of 'Dragoon'"

(Man, she's scary...*shivers*) "That would be me." The blue haired prince entered the room, looking perfectly exhausted. "What news do you bring?" "Hope of a treaty." His sister told him. "That's about all I can tell you, however." Laura eyed him icily and didn't say anything. Raythor eyed the world icily. Saria started braiding her hair.

(i know.warping time!!!) Suddenly a much older boy ran in, and stopped dead when he saw the younger boy. "Roge?"He said in almost horror"Is that you?Did you just get here?What the bloody hell took you so long?" Roge looked at the floor"My horse tripped...."he muttered. "Well..."The older boy"I bring recent news from Ovi-I mean Dragoon, but its not my job to read it, its his." Roge gave him a glare and sqwinted at the paper as though it was written very quickly and was hard to read. "The queen Anella sends greetings to Markus Everglade and his wife..er, Pose, Laora Grasswaiter,um...Sarja something or other, Ketra Everglade and er..ah....Batler Prnen?" The older boy sighed and rolled his eyes"The king sends greatings to the rest of you" Roge looked back down at the paper which became magicaly more legible. "The old king of Dragoon is dead, Her magisty Anella will take his place with the king Talith by her side.From now on the Kingdom will be known as Ovidia."

Everybody enchanged looks. "Well, I'm Markus..." The prince said uncertainly. "And I'm pretty sure 'Pose' is 'Rose'." "I would be 'Laora Glasswaiter'." Laura said, rolling her eyes. She couldn't write herself. "Am I Sarja?" Saria asked. Raythor nodded. "Ketra..." The princess whispered. "She killed that loser? Finally." There was a mumur of agreement. "Who's 'Batler Prnen'?" Dione asked, tired of being ignored.

"That's got to be me." Raythor said passivly. "Anyway, dead king, right." Markus said, straightening. "I'll have to tell this to my father. I feel sick already." He looked at Laura. She shurgged. "Your problem." "Ouch man." 'Rujhor Kitten' said. "Tell your new queen we are happy to hear of her success and extend peace to her country." Markus said to the messangers. "Can he do that?" Dione asked. "He's a prince. He can assasinate a spotted dog because he thinks it walks funny." Rose walked in with her baby in her arms and a totally exhausted expression. "Anyone seen the darn nurse?"

There was a visable shiver that ran through the room, for every one but Dione and Raythor. Markus gupled a little before he spoke. "Hello Anella. It's good to see you again... new kingdom going well, I trust." "Ah, cut the act Markus." Rose said, putting her baby in the other arm. "You're not planning to kill us, are you?" "Rose, as the future queen, I'm going to have to ask you to shut up." "This is why I love you, you know." "I know." Laura made a gagging noise, and when they looked back at her she atempted to look completely innocent. "You look different." Raythor said coldly. "New hair cut?"

Anella laughed softly. "No,No.."She said"I need your help Markus.I have a little..situation, that will make me unfit for battle for awhile.I want you to make shure there will be no need for battle durring that time.."Her icy eyes drifted slowly from person to person, sizing them up.All except Raythor that is.Behind her Talith could be seen entering sheepishly.

Markus smiled the ghost of hid regular smile. Rose looked at him and sighed. That was the closest he'd come to smiling in weeks. "I would be honored to defend your kingdom, my queen, if nessasary." Markus said. "What's your situation?" Saria asked dumbly. "It's better not to know." Laura told her. "Really." "Hi Talith." Raythor said, managing to keep all the venom out of his voice. "How are you?"

"Thank you.."Anella said.Then she turned to Saria, she seemed to try to be deciding weather to say anything or not. "Fine, how are you?"Talith said who quickly had a sinking feeling the answer would be bad.

Raythor gave him a semi-insane sort of grin. "Fine... just fine." He said, resisting the urge to say how he was really doing. "I'm still confused, and I wanna know!" Saria declared. Markus gave her a desparageing look.

There was a yell from beyond the courtyard fallowed by a loud winnie and a bang. "Thats Ranier."Anella said not looking concerned at all"I will be right back."Talith watched to make shure she was gone and then turned to Raythor again. "You really don't like your wife do you?"He said in a matter of fact way.
