Hello, My name is Jester, and I am borrowing this account because I choose not to make my own. A little about myself is I love the books not the movies, so please keep that in mind. Now as this story that I am telling progresses, I will be mentioned once in a while for I am the Jester. Now let us commence my audience.
This is a story of a far away land where there were still fair princesses, dashing princes, beloved queens, and courageous and noble kings. For years everyone from the Crimson Kingdom lived in prosperity, then the land was attacked by the dark Nightfall Kingdom and for many years the war raged on. It wasn't until a young man, heir to the throne of the Nightfall Kingdom was born that the old and wise Oracle said, "This is the one destined to end the war." Seventeen years later the young man grew up to be one of the finest warriors in the land. And our story begins on a fateful day when his brother died in the hands of a Crimson Royal, awakening his hatred and rage.
Brown chocolate eyes stared at the body of his younger brother, held in the arms of his dark skinned kin. They all watched as their future king stood shocked, then in one swift movement he had taken back the body and clung to it as a monstrous howl tore from his throat. All around him his people crowded near and shared his pain. A hand patted his shoulders as a young woman tried to comfort him, his brother's wife. "I am sorry," the heir said, "It was supposed to be me out there today, had I not been indulging myself in political affairs within our walls, I would have prevented this."
"Prince Jacob," the woman whispered, "He loved you and wouldn't have wanted you to blame yourself, please rest assured, it would help me and make me feel at ease if you would not blame the current situation on yourself." Her black hair swung over her shoulder and fell down to her belly, showing a slight bump signifying she was to be a mother. "Lady Leah is right," a black haired young woman said, her face had three swipes of a wolves claw, from her earlier years, "Now is the time for revenge though, we must show those pale ones that we aren't to be disgraced like this." "Emily!" a bark rose and everyone turned to look at the approaching general, "Do not speak to Prince Jacob like this ever. Learn your place woman and don't shame me again."
"Sam," Jacob said, "Don't worry about it, this is very devastating to all of us. Seth," Jacob beckoned to a young man who had recently earned the title of captain, "Take the women somewhere to relax. Embrey, Paul, and Jared," three men stepped forward, "Make the ceremony for my brothers passing on, ready. Quil, inform my father, he wont be too happy that I am sending a messenger but, I have to ready my brothers body." A young man nodded and ran off to the higher chambers. Sam leaned his head against a cold pillar nearby, "Would you like me to withdraw our men for the ceremony?" Jacob nodded, "Yes, and while you are at it, please make sure all posts are guarded. I wouldn't place doubt those damn pale ones to attack during this most painful time." Sam nodded his head and ran out the door barking orders left and right. Jacob turned towards a huge statue of golden brown in the shape of a wolf, "Please have his soul at rest."
Golden eyes stared on a space in the wall, bored already with the current situation at hand that his . bif oaf of a brother made. "Emmett!" a golden eyed, golden haired man yelled at a brown haired golden eyed buff young man, "You killed one of the Royals of the Nightfall Kingdom. This is going to complicate things, killing royals has always been against the rules and now look at what you have done." Emmett shrugged, "I don't understand how this is a bad thing father." The first young man sighed, "How many months is Rose on? What you did brother is you leveled the playing field, you have now opened the doors to the assassination of Royals, including your wife Rose." Emmett paled, if there was a question of the possibility for a Cullen to pale it was proven then. "Father," Emmett said, "What am I going to do?"
His father shook his head, "What we are going to do, is extend the guards duties, until further notice you will not leave Rose, or your mother's side. Alice and Jasper will be fighting as always in the battle field, but Edward will be taking your position." Edward rose, "That is impossible, I will not take the rules into mind and will kill most of these people!" A black haired young woman entered followed by a quiet yellow haired young man, "That is what is going to have to be done father. Because of Emmett's stupidity we are forced to take them all prisoners to protect our kingdom. We should attack tonight, while they are mourning, I realize this puts us among savages but, this war has gone on long enough." "Alice," the king said, "I understand, ready the troops." Edward sighed, "I will go get dressed." "I planned to give you this information on better conditions, " Jasper said, "Alice is with child, and its to be a boy."
Edward scoffed, "Oh, the torture of this situation." The king shook his head, "Because of Emmett's mistake, a lot will be lost here tonight including our kingdoms honor. I hereby announce Emmett and his offspring to be disinherited. Effective immediately, Edward is the new heir to my throne, Alice stay with Rose and Jasper, accompany Edward on the front lines." Jasper nodded, "They will be taken as slaves Sire, I am sorry, but I refuse to make more killings." The king nodded, "I feel bad enough as it is, having their blood on us, more than necessary, would be torture."
This is where I leave off, in the next chapter, heirs clash swords and a certain death that will bring more rage to Jacob this and more in
