"You will wake him up!" a voice whispered rather angrily. 

"Well it's about time he woke up, he's been asleep for a whole week." another said and Kai twisted in his sleep. His eyes fluttered slowly, facing the roof of his bed.

"What is going on?" the young prince mumbled and a moment of utter silence surprised him.
