Chapter Two is Here!
Hana Te Yumi
Chap. 2
"Princess!" Lakis spun around as three men appeared running out of the opposite side of the forest. She new all three well to be guards for the palace.
"Waja, Nii, Leiol." She gave a breath of relief as the shaking stopped quickly.
"Princess are you all right, Delphie reported a disturbance in the woods." Leiol looked deeply concerned.
"Dear Delphie, I'm so grateful to her." Lakis sighed. "But I'm all right boys. And my mother, has she been told of the watching pool?"
"Yes Princess. I think it would be better if you came back to the palace now." Waja extended his hand.
"I suppose I should." She smiled and nodded gently. She took Waja's hand and the four of them shrunk until they were the size Delphie had been, for it is in the power of all fairies to be the size of a human or of their own fairy kin as they please. Lakis' dragonfly-like wings fluttered elegantly as she followed the three guards to the center of the forest of Lathel and to the palace where her mother, Queen of all Karatomeina, resided.
Meanwhile...
"How could that be?" The Queen looked up as her assistant, Claris, hovered above the throne.
"I don't know my queen." Claris shook his head and continued to scribble down notes of today's finding as the Queen had ordered. The Queen had shoulder length midnight blue hair. She had two jagged blue lines on each of her cheek and a silver wreath crown atop her head with roses, lilacs, and other flowers adorning it. Her gown went down to her knees and she was nearly as skinny as Lakis. But time had taken it's toll and now the Queen was 50 to human eyes, but yet again, the life-span of fairies can be greater than the life of an entire jungle. Even now the Queen's eyes reflected many sorrows and a great deal of pain from her lifetime and still she carried he weight of the crown.
"The watching pool of Lathel has never failed to foresee or reflect the past, present, or future! Never!" The Queen said angrily.
"What should we do your highness? What will become of us?" Claris replied in a frightened voice.
"I do not know." The Queen shook her head. She stopped her unfathomable pacing and sat back down on the throne. "I just can't understand why something like this would happen. And why now? It must mean something, I know it."
"I just hope it doesn't mean anything horrible." Claris stuttered.
"Me too Claris, me too." The Queen jumped as the palace doors opened and Lakis along with three palace guards entered.
"Mother." Lakis flew over to the throne where she landed gently before the Queen. Lakis clasped her hands together and gave her mother a worried look. "The watching pool, it has failed us. What shall we do?"
"A meeting." The Queen answered abruptly. Lakis, Claris, and the guards all looked startled.
"What for your majesty?" Claris sputtered.
"I meeting of the fairy elders, the chief knights, and myself. There is a great deal of discussion to be made, a very important discussion." The Queen looked determined.
"What about me mother?" Lakis grew concerned.
"You're too young Lakis, you will stay and guide the youth of our world while this session is underway." The Queen remarked strictly. Lakis would have retorted to her mothers swift decision but she was more mature than even some adults she knew. She held her tongue and gave a steady nod.
"Good. Claris, gather everyone I've mentioned and meet me in the Grand Hall.
"Yes my liege." Claris quickly flew out of the castle and into the fairy cities. The three guards followed the Queen into the Grand Hall and slammed the large wooden doors. Lakis stood alone for a moment and then fluttered back out of the palace to the miniature world of fairies. She viewed the world around her and thought to herself, I do not want this place to come to ruin. These people are my friends, and family, and subjects, this is my home, I can not let it fall. Whatever plan her mother was concocting had to be good. Lakis had followed her instincts ever since she was a child and they had always been true to her. She would not deny them now when she felt that something very dangerous, and phenomenal was about to occur.
