3 Chapter 3 Is that all you have to say
**********************************************
CLOVER
In the late night, you could see a shadow of a man moving swiftly and quietly. The man was in the inner chambers trying to get out of the palace. He had on a backpack that was filled with all sorts of things like he was going on an adventure which he was actually. He escaped the guards that were at the front gate of the inner chambers and got to the outer chambers. He took a shortcut to the throne room which was close to the Main North gate of the palace. He passed by the king's throne and touched it dearly then walked down the council's part of the throne room to the exit door that lead to the road connected to the Main North gate. He looked back and took one good look at the whole palace and then he used his wand which he knew will be sensed to cast a spell to help him walk through the walls of the palace. He could have used the invisibility spell but he was the same person who invented the spell to see people who are invisible. He walked out of the palace unnoticed and he walked off into the woods.
The prince of Ra Clover has a routine he follows everyday, he wakes up before the first light , do some training, take his bath and go straight to the Fugitive Creep where he works but today was different, he was awoken during the fifteenth light by the bustling of the Sargs.
Sargs are magical creatures who look like humans except they had long ears like elves, they are strong and fast, they also have great senses. Not all Sargs look the same and have the same ability, it is based on what type of discipline they fit in that their abilities develop. Warrior Sargs' combat magic is one of the strongest in Clover. One of their main jobs is guarding the royal family. He asked one of the Sargs what was going on and they told him the King is missing.
"What's... happening?" he asked them in his sleepy voice.
"Your highness, the king is missing" the Sarg answered in a panicked tone.
"Oh" the prince replied with no surprise in his tone. The Sarg just told him his father was missing but he didn't seem to be worried.
"Is that all you have to say?" the prince's mother who came to his chamber to inform him about what was happening. "Your father is missing and that's all you say, oh?"
"Mother, how do you do?" the prince asked ignoring her question.His mother had went with the other Clovi Queens on trip to outer world. "Welcome back, how was Uranus?
"It's just my style, icy" his mother answered smiling. "So, what are you going to do about your missing father?" his mother asked him.
"My father is not missing, I saw him during the twelfth light tiluz(means today in Clovean)." he said nonchalantly. "Remember like a haluz(500 years) ago when this same thing happened, we thought the Jinnis had him but he was actually out drinking with the Artiste Sargs."
"Those were the Jinnis and your father has much power than a ton of them." his mother replied. "We were only afraid of them cause we thought they figured out what his weakness is but this time, there's a much bigger threat at hand, it's your uncle!" she exclaimed.
"Mother, we have Sensor and Warrior Sargs all around in case one of his minions or he himself set foot in this palace, I personally will have sensed their magic."
As his mother wanted to reply, someone arrived in the palace which caused some commotion.
"Your majesty!" A sarg called as he came running. "The king of Lu Clover is here!" she exclaimed.
Lu Clover is a part of clover land, it directs mostly the economy of Clover. Clover is made up of six kingdoms in which Ra clover heads all of them.
"Great, just great" The queen said sarcastically. "Astraus, were you expecting Eamon Lu tiluz?" she asked.
"No, he shouldn't be here" he answered. "Even if he had an appointment, it's the sixteenth light for Cristo's sake.
Prince Astraus and Queen Saddle Ra walked over to the throne room where they saw Eamon Lu seated on his side of the council beaming more than usual.
"Greetings your majesty." Eamon Lu greeted putting his hands together in a prayer-like fashion and at the same time bowing down his head. "The high palace seems disturbed." he said.
"Like hell you didn't know" the Queen thought. "What brings you to Ra clover?" the queen said not planning on saying anything to Eamon Lu about the missing king.
"You know, just your friendly neighbouring king paying you a friendly visit." he replied stressing the word friendly more than normal. "How are you doing Prince Astraus?
Astraus who has been standing beside his mother wishing he could be sleeping right now answered, "Of course, I'm doing great." he answered putting on a fake smile. He was waiting for Eamon Lu to drop the bomb and ask for his father, there's possibly no other reason why he would be standing right there in front of him during the sixteenth light.
"Since I've seen you're all doing well, I'll take my leave. I'll have asked to see the King but it seems you have a lot going on, so I'd take my leave now." Eamon Lu said getting up and doing the bow again like he did the first time. "Be well your majesties" he said leaving.
When he was out of sight, Astraus and his mother were more disturbed than when he was there, it seems more suspicious that he didn't ask for the king after seeing the chaos in the palace.
"That's odd." Astraus said trying not to yawn.
`"Missing or not, you must make sure I see your father on the tenth light neluz(Means tommorow in Clovean)."Queen Saddle said in a very different tone than the one she used when she was in the prince's chamber. "It's a command from the Queen of Ra, you can't say no."
"Yes, your majesty." Astraus replied. This is one of the times when he knows he must separate his personal relationship with his mother. What happened at his chambers was a mother-son conversation but right now, this ia a Queen-Prince conversation.
**********************************************
EARTH
".... Queen Saddle is a Clovi who was raised on earth. Her parents had fled Clover Land when the Jinnis took over the whole of Clover Land. Her mother was pregnant with her then but her parents had told her stories about her homeland and how magical it was before the invasion. She had longed to return to Clover ever since she was a kid, she would beg her parents to take her back to it telling them that someone had probably defeated them but their answer was always negative. She started taking martial arts classes on earth, training how to fight, she even got into a secret agent group just to gain more fight skills. She was determined to go back to Clover and be the hero they did not have….."
"Do you believe all those things?" Sunny who had sneaked into Samu's room unnoticed and was standing beside him while he sits on his bed.
"Sunny!...what are you doing here this early?"
"There was no one home except my spooky bodyguard who seemed to be more interested in hanging out with the maid than protecting me."
"So you sneaked out?"
"Of course not, I basically walked out of the gates without my bodyguard and the chief security let me out."
"Come downstairs kids, I made breakfast" Samu's mom called from downstairs.
"Be right there." Samu answered.
It was the morning of Saturday and Samu had woken up early to watch his favorite show Smith the myth guy. He had a pretty good week. Sunny had made it her mission that week to get Qi's number when they realised he didn't have a phone. This was what happened;
"Sam, I have a new mission for you" Sunny had said as she handed over the promised jacket to Samu who had a radiant grin on his face.
"Ay, aye master." Samu replied saluting. The grin on his face changed to a smirk as he said "As long as I get something out of it"
"Can't you do something for your dear friend without anything in return?" Sunny asked jokingly.
"Well, not when my dear friend is rich." he replied
"You're rich too!" Sunny snapped and then changing her tone quickly she cleared her throat and said "So, can you...hmm..hmm..get his..uhm...number for me? She asked.
"There's no way I can do that, dudes don't ask each other for their numbers, well, except you-know-who type of people." he answered. "You've got to ask yourself"
"Okay, I will" Sunny said without being upset to Samu's surprise. "You're right, I've got to start doing stuff by myself."
It was raining that afternoon after the school closed. Sunny waited for her driver in the cafeteria with Samu who couldn't go home just yet because of the rain. They had stayed in the cafeteria for a few minutes when Qi walked over to their table.
"Hey guys." he said as he walked to the other side of the table to pull out a chair beside Samu.
"Hey Qi" Sunny replied smiling.
"Hey." Samu who was feeling a little self-conscious followed."
"Are you in a club or something?" Sunny asked
"No, no I'm not. Why?" Qi who seems disturbed by the question asked.
"I was just curious why you're still here." Sunny answered smiling again.
"Oh, I was at the library and I just finished the book I was reading." Qi replied smiling too.
"What's with the smiles?" Samu who showed no interest in their conversation asked himself.
"Oh okay. You said you wanted to hang out with us sometimes right?" Sunny asked.
"I'll love to." Qi replied taking a brief look at Samu who seemed busy on his phone and then faced Sunny who was beaming opposite the table.
"Can I have your number then?" Sunny asked trying to hide the nervousness in her voice.
"My number?" he asked like he needed an explanation to what she meant by number
"Yeah, your phone number." Sunny said like duh
"I'm sorry, I don't have a phone number…what's a phone by the way?" Qi asked. "I've studied everything about this world, I'm sure I didn't miss anything'
"You mean to tell us you're a teenager in the 21st century that doesn't know what a cellphone is?"asked Samu.
"No, no, this can't be the part where they find out the truth" Qi thought. "Cellphones, cellphones, where have I heard that….'
----------------------------------------------------------------------
" ….oh yeah, and also that boxy things they use is part of their technological advancement, they're always stuck on that thing, the most common one is called cellphone, get one of those to fit in more, I think know why they like it so much."
------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Oh, I'm just kidding, of course I know what a chellpone is." Qi replied chuckling nervously.
"Cell Phone not chellpone" Samu corrected
"Aha, aha, of course he knows what it is, he's just kidding right Q?" Sunny said.
"Yeah, of course." Qi said.
"So, your number?" Sunny asked again.
"Sure, as soon as I get a new one, I lost my previous one.
