Princess Candace the hero of frozen crystals ~ chapter 1 ~ Princess Babysitting
Here is the first chapter of the sequel to Adalia the daughter of the shadow hero. I know I haven't finished Adalia's story just yet, but I want to know if this story will be just as successful, please read and review. I need your opinions people!
'Once upon a time, long ago in a beautiful Kingdom lived a lonely hero prince. He lived and trained with his mother, the hero of Brightwall. He trained for many years, yet he was alone. His heart belonged to the mysteriously beautiful daughter of the most horrifying men in Albion's hist... OWWW! '
"Don't talk about Gwanpa like that! " The young princess hit the future king with her teddy bear.
" Ok, I get it. Can I finish the story? " The prince asked
" No, I want to hear Gwanpa' s story! " Princess Candace said
" He will be asleep, Candy dear... Should I get Grandad instead?" Prince Andrew suggested
"I want Gwanpa! " Candy folded her small arms
'She is so like her mother... ' Andrew thought as he left her room, his wife was waiting outside for him.
" Should I call my father? " She asked, already knowing the answer. Adalia' s long curled black hair had been pulled into a plat.
" Yes, Reaver should know the drill by now. " Andrew nodded" She wouldn't have a second thought if we asked if she wants to live with him "
" Don't think like that" Adalia smiled, she kissed him " Anyway, we can ask if he will babysit her tomorrow and we can have the day to ourselves"
" We'll have to lock away his guns" Andrew said " Lets get your father here, the faster he comes, the faster Cabdy will go to sleep"
" Of course " Adalia chuckled and went to get her father.
*About an hour later*
Candy was jumping on her bed, Reaver quietly entered the room.
" I hear a certain young princess refuses to go to sleep? " He said, Candy stopped jumping and looked at him with bright eyes. One a silvery blue, the other a venomous green.
" Gwanpa Weavew! " Candy yelled and threw her arms around him.
" Hello young Princess, I suppose you want to hear one of my adventures? " Reaver chuckled
" Yes, please!" Candy smiled
" Than, let's get you tucked in " Reaver tuck Candy into bed. Her golden locks were in two curly piggy tails tied with pink bows.
" Can you tell me about how you defeated captain Dwead and his Cwew to be the best piwate king evew? " Candy asked
" Of course... Let's see... " Reaver sat down on the seat next to her bed.
'Before becoming the pirate king, I was already every well known by the sea folk. Captain Dread was the pirate king at this point, he had heard about me and wanted me amongst his crew. He sent all his men after me, I killed them and sent their heads back to him. '
' He was fuwious with you and put a vewy big pwice onYouw head!'
'Indeed, young Candy, I, of course, wasn't going give my freedom up easily and handed myself over. While I was lock in the pirate king's cabin, I shot the oil lamp above his head. A horrible death to experience, but fitting to end the life of the former pirate king and to start of a rein of a better pirate king... '
Reaver smiled at the young princess, who had fallen asleep. He kissed her goodnight and left the room. Andrew and Adalia were waiting outside for him.
" Is she asleep? " Andrew asked
" Yes, the little tyke fell asleep during the story of my triumph over captain Dread " Reaver smiled.
" You get on really well with her... We were wondering if you would babysit her tomorrow? " Adalia asked
" I would love to, bring her round when you are ready, I will be waiting" Reaver waved to them and he left, unaware that Adalia had asked Claire to lock up his guns.
" I wonder if he will be able to cope with Candy... " Andrew muttered
" He' ll be fine. The time without her, we can plan her birthday party. Craven and Phoenix have agreed to come " Adalia took her husband's hand as they headed back to their room.
" I can't wait to see them again " Andrew smiled.
" Me neither, it will be great to have the whole family together " Adalia agreed.
* The Next Day *
" But... " Reaver protested.
" Princess' orders, Master Reaver" Claire told him, as she locked up his prized Dragonstomper!
" Fine" Reaver sighed, there was a knock at the door, Reaver opened it only to have his granddaughter jump into his arms.
" Gwanpa Weavew! " Candy giggled
" Hello, so ready to spend the day with this old man? " Reaver smirked
" Gwanpa not old" Candy patted his cheek "Grandad old, Gwanpa not"
" Anyway, see you later sweetie " Adalia kissed her daughter goodbye and then left the manor as Reaver closed the door.
" Can I see youw dwagonstomew? " Candy asked excitedly.
" I am afraid, that today it has been locked away from me, but I do have something" Reaver carried her up to his study. Putting her on a chair, he went to his desk and pulled out two really old toy guns.
" A toy gun! " Candy giggled and clapped her hands.
" I made these when I was little, the best rosewood. The best cork powered gun possible. " Reaver passed her one with a mini bag of corks.
BAM!
A cork hit Reaver square between the eyes, Candy burst out laughing.
" Oww" Reaver rubbed his head.
"Can't get me! " Candy giggled and rab out of the room, Reaver chuckled and gave chase to the little tyke.
For the whole day, Reaver and Candy played with the Rosewood cork guns. Candy was too fast for the slow cork gun, and he often missed, apart frim one that knocked the gun from the princess' grip, but she easily got it back and fired 2 shots before running.
When Adalia and Andrew finally came to pick up their daughter, they were surprised to find everything quiet. They found Reaver and Candy in the library with a tea ply set, Candy was wearing Reaver's top hat and Reaver was wearing Candy's tira.
" Sugar, Gwanpa Weavew? " Candy offered him, she was holding a small tea cup.
" Just one, please " Reaver said
" It isn't real sugar Gwanpa. " Candy smiled
" Make it 7 than, but don't mix it, I don't like it sweet " Reaver grinned, Candy giggled and passed him his tea.
"There you go Gwanpa" Candy smiled
" Thank you, my dear " Reaver took a sip, Andrew and Adalia couldn't help but burst out laughing, Reaver and Candy looked up at them unfazed.
" Mommy, Daddy. Join our tea party! " Candy smiled
" You must join, it is delightful " Reaver took a sip of his tea" Yet, Candy here refuses to allow me take this off" He tapped the tirs.
" Gwanpa Weavew is the pwincess and I am Gwanpa Weavew! " Candy stood up and ran to her parents and pulled them over to join the tea party. Candy took Adalia's tira abd put it on Andrews head. " Daddy is Pwincess too! "
Adalia looked at the two men wearing tira's, and couldn't help laughing, she had trouble drinking her tea that Candy made. Candy acted as if it was normal for men to wear tira's.
" Remind me to explain to Candy men don't wear tira's" Andrew whispered to his wife, Adalia just nodded, knowing if she opened her mouth she would never stop laughing.
So... What do you think peoples? Do you think this will be as good as Adalia? Please review your opinions. I intend drawing the tea party sense, if you want to see it keep an eye out on Deviantart.
