It's here! It's finally here! I finally decided to post the sequel. Well, I hope you find it enjoyable, because otherwise, I've wasted my time. I'm sorry if this seems short for a first chapter. Aren't intros always short?

A moment of silence for a friend of mine whose house caught fire…

Alright! Time for the long awaited story!

Dove sighed.

She was sixteen now, but she had held onto her sweet innocent nature. To what purpose, her brother Crow would never know.

Rustling down the corridors while dressed in silk and other atrocities was suicide if there were other people.

Lucky for her, there were none.

For some odd reason, she had been summoned to the throne room and told to look nice.

For whatever reason, Dove felt like shrieking and running away. She sighed and reached for the door.

An inch away from the doorknob, her hand twitched. Did she really want to hear the news?

Most likely not, but it wasn't like she had a choice, right?

Dove opened the door and faced the worst news in her life.

KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK.

Raven slid her door open a crack. Crow stood there, hair disheveled and looking like he ran 10 miles. "What?" she demanded sharply.

"Dove has a suitor." He said in a fierce yet dangerously calm voice. Raven's eye twitched.

"What?"

"Dove, has, A, SUITOR!" He yelled in her face. "She has a suitor! Do you know what this means? It means that DOVE is being courted!" He looked about ready to pull his hair out. "SHE'S ONLY SIXTEEN! SHE SHOULDN'T BE COURT-" Crow was disrupted from his ranting by Raven's slap. He paused and blinked. "…thanks, I needed that."

"I know." Raven said.

Crow opened his mouth to start ranting again, but Raven cut him off.

"If you say another word about that subject, I will give Starfire permission to 'dress you up in the make of the up'."

Crow gulped and wisely fell silent.

"That's better. Now go away, you're ruining my meditation." Raven told him before slamming the door in his face.

"Sisters…" Crow grumbled as he turned and walked down the hall. "Why couldn't I have a brother? But, nooooo, I just have to be overwhelmed by younger sisters that for some reason can always make me do whatever they want…"

Dove walked forlornly down the palace halls and made her way back to her room.

She looked back and forth before entering her room.

Once inside, she locked all exits and changed into her normal cloak, leotard, and skirt. Then, with a swish of her cloak and a flash of white light, and she was gone.

Heading for the one place both her siblings currently were…

(XXhxaxpxpxyxxdxexpxrxexsxsxixoxnxxhxaxtxrxexdxxhxoxpxeXX)

There was a loud thump. "Ooof!" Crow exclaimed. "What the-Dove!" He cried happily.

"Crow!" Dove replied, just as enthusiastic. "Where's Raven?"

"In her room. Brooding." Crow told her.

Dove thought carefully. Brooding was Crow's word for meditation. "So, she's in her room meditating?" Dove remarked.

"Ya huh!"

Dove picked herself up and made her way down the grey hallways.

Remando cackled evilly. He had started courting Dove, and was just waiting for her to accept his offer of marriage. He was handsome, smart, and charming. What girl wouldn't fall for him?

He fixed his tie before turning to walk out the door.

He was prepared to court a sweet young girl, and for that, he had to be one step ahead of her protective older siblings. He would be everything they wanted, and when he married her, he would arrange Crow and Raven's 'death'.

After all, he wanted that crown, and he was going to get it.

What did you think? Bad? Good? Let me know if you like the plot so far.
