Chapter 5
~ Kaya's Army
Everything has been a blur. First,
my father is captured. Second, a spy was in our mist. Third, the evil ones know
everything. Althea is telling me that I need an army the one she has is not big
enough. The one she has is just the
other Fay. She needs all the Fae and Fay to come together to create what my
father started out as Kaya's army; I don't know what I'm doing.
"You must!" Queen Sara
yelled at me. "I don't know what I'm doing!' I yelled back to my mother.
"You will learn!" She yelled. Aaron walked in on us and went to my
mother. "I will take her mother," he recommended. My mother nodded
and he took me away.
"How dare he-"
"Don't
even think about yelling at me like you did mother." he said then turned
me down the hall. We were on the last floor heading to the stairs. "You
should know better" he started
"I
am almost fourteen!" I screamed at him still fuming mad. "Then act
like it," he said at me his green eyes burning into mine. I turned my head
and he dragged me up the stairs until we were on the third floor. We came to
his room on his door it read
Aaron
First son of Jamadd
"With honor comes responsibility"
Now I can see why he is so strict.
Then it hit me. "You made this up! Every one made up their own saying it's
what we live by!" I said realizing why it said what it did on my door.
Just trying to remember what it meant was hard. Aaron just nodded."Father
helped me out. I loved to see him and one day I said it I was four. He put it
on my wall then it followed down the line. You were the last one... you were
fathers favorite... he was always happy..." he stopped there then opened
his door. His room was three times bigger than mine was. Staring in awe, I
watched him enter first. "Come on' he said
His room was huge (when I say that I
mean it's huge!) The bed had a black theme to it or was that fire? Anyways
words cannot describe his room. He sat down on his bed I laid on it.
"Kaya?"
my brother asked
"Yeah?"
"Can
I tell you a secret?"
"...
Yeah..." I said confused. he would never do this.
"I don't
know what to do.," he confessed. 'I don't want to tell mom but at the same
time I feel like falling down and screaming myself to death."
I looked over at him. That strong
man I usually see when i look at him was gone I saw what he did every day. I could not stand him looking like that. My
heart was just breaking. 'Lots of hope Aaron." was all i said. Then closed
my eyes and just thought. I felt him lay beside me.
"Thanks
little sis." he said then closed his eyes.
I opened my eyes and looked at him
he was laying right beside me. Facing the other way. Smiling I had a memory
come back
He was younger a lot younger. Moreover, so was
I. this was the night before I left. He was talking to me and telling me
everything that would happen. Then I saw his companion there it was a horse... courageous.
I saw a light flash and my brother was on the ground by his horse. Courageous
was hurt blood was on the ground.
"Aaron
what happened the night that you lost your companion?" I asked. He opened
his eyes and turned to me on the bed.
'We were young I can't remember the
age. Courageous was there. He wanted to be here that night. He said something
was up." he stopped. I could see the hurt in his eyes. He
continued"... well he was right. That night evil ones came into trying to
kill me the next heir. He blocked them but then his gem was cut off his head...
It felt like my heart was being torn from me." he was bursting into tears
now." I heard his thoughts screaming in my head. The thoughts were terrible.
Then it was gone." he finished. He looked at me "it was the hardest
thing I've ever gone through. This is why you need to build your army."
"What is this army?" I
asked confused.
"An
army of fays and fae to gather. This is the ultimate army. Father started it years ago named it Kaya's
army. Well you left now and the fae didn't want to join. That led the fays to
leave. Now that your back Queen Althea thinks, you can bring Kaya's army back. Can
you do that for everyone? For me.... For courageous?" he asked. I nodded
my head and gave him a hug. "Im sorry Aaron... I'll find a way to get Courageous
his gem back. I'll make sure he is you companion again. You shouldn't have to go
through this." I said my green eyes matching his. Afterwards he literately
kicked me out of his room.
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦
Walking down the hall, I saw my
mother I ran up to her and gave her a hug. "Mother I am sorry please
forgive me." I pleaded. My mother hugged me back and then walked away
without saying a word. That is when I got the idea.
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦
Hey, J.J. want to help me out. I
asked my other brother. He nodded and grabbed his horse star. Star was all blue
with white dots all over him the gem on his forehead was white. We decided to
go on a secret ride (from mother and Aaron) to town.
"All men and women old enough
to fight! All big enough to win. All who want to serve their king! Come to the
meeting hall. Come for Kaya's army!' we screamed. Then ran away. Just like
mother did to me with the hug. she answered through walking away.
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦
Well if I say everyone that could
was there, it would be the truth. However, not all were happy.
"Everyone
listen to me before you get too mad!' I yelled they all looked at me and saw
who it was. They all bowed to my brother and me.
"My
understanding of this army was to help fight against the evil ones. We can't do
it alone!" I said once they were up." we need to combine with the
other Fay. Yes, Queen Althea has gathered the Fay over thousands in numbers but
we don't even come close to the evil ones power of numbers. We need to combine
with others all who aren't willing to do that leave now.
Not one
left.
Queen Althea came up behind me along
with Kathy. They stood at both sides. After a friendly greeting, I saw they
brought their part of the army. After everyone settled. I saw my brother come
up and my mother with tears in her eyes.
I had
brought what people were thought to be impossible.
I brought
together... Kaya's Army.
