here is the long waited Chapter Four.
Chapter 4 Queen
Althea
Light? Weren't the lights out? Crazy...Hold on do I smell...I
do! Rain!
I snapped
my eyes open then wish I didn't. The light flew into them making me close my
eyes as quickly as I opened them.
"ugggg"
I moaned. "Why are the lights on so bright?"
"I'm
sorry let me turn them down" a clear crystal like voice rang down upon me.
Slower this time I opened my eyes.
The light was less bright so when my eyes adjusted I saw this beautiful woman.
Her hair was long and darkish brown. Her eyes were dark brown and shining like
rain on gems. Her face was childish but yet grown up... like a teenager. She
wore a short dress but was modest. It was light purple, with blue added to it. Whenever
it moved, it looked like water flowing.
"Queen
Althea!' I cried getting up and bowing.
"No,
no" she said "please up? I have not been in your honorable presence
scence you were born. please"
She knelt down to me then stood up. That's
when I saw her feet. They were webbed.
"You're
a water Fay!" I exclaimed.
"Yes"
"We've
thought you guys were extinct!"
"No
no just... hiding"
"Why?"
"Protection.
I do what i must to protect my people. Don't mistake us we are strong."
"No
any I would never," I said calmed down now. "What are you doing here?"
"Only
a water Fay can heal what happened to you."
"What
did happen to me?" I inquired
"You
were touched by a Sadam" she said. 'Usually people wouldn't live."
"Wow"
I said then my family burst in. quickly my father bowed then the rest came to
see if I was all right, I smiled hugging them.
"Hem"
my father cleared his throat "I need to speak with you Queen Althea."
She
nodded and followed him leaving every one (including my mother) with me.

Boom the
thunder roared outside the stables. All the horses were in the stables where
they would be dry. Courageous was scared his eyes white the grey in them was
hardly visible. Wither was beside Topaz hugging her close. Whenever the storms
come there is most likely to be the evil ones. "They won't come this time. They won't come this time. They won't..."
Wither was saying to Topaz who was soon to be due. Her dark coat was sleeked in
water she was terrified of storms. They gave her nightmares when she felt them
come it was signs that the evil ones would come. She did not want that to happen.
The door opened and a shadowed figure came in
with another. The horses freaked. Nobody comes but the evil ones in a storm.
The other figure took the hood off and they saw it was Queen Althea and settled
down for a little bit. She smiled and patted her long lost horse sparkle on the
neck when she saw her. Sparkle had these blue fins on her side of each cheek
like large kills. Her body strong and sleek.
While the queen was talking to her
horse the king was turned around his eyes on something in his hands.
"I've
heard what you've done for the other Fay.' he stared " helping them rise
and army. Kind of brings a thought to me it does."
"What
are you getting at Jamadd? I have helped you. I have been there for you asked
my help in this is an army against the evil ones." she says not turning
around.
King Jamadd
sneers a smile." Well you see I am no king." he started. Queen Althea
froze. "Who are you?'
'A spy is
what you can call it."
"Who
are you?" she asked again her hand shaking on Sparkle's neck. The spy
slowly pulled off the cover of a knife, turned out, and tried to strike out at
the queen. The queen turned around and caught the knife in her hand she stabbed
the spy in the heart while hitting him in the throat. He died instantly. The
horses screeches brought guard to the scene.
The body was soon reveled as a
different man in the king's cloths. He had a beard and looked like the men that
tried to steal the Sadam. The queen was escorted out. 'I need the queen in her
room and i need a family meeting." she ordered.
"Of
course my queen." the guards said bowing.
"And
tell the staff that I feel like some food... I don't know why.," she said trying
to make herself laugh. Her eyes were about to burst into the weak tears she
knew they couldn't see. "I especially need Kaya."
