Arkeyan Governor Saga: Tornado Alley

Adinda's Meeting

It was another day in San Fran, Unfortunately the curse of foul rain black skies and bad weather continued. Currently Adinda was at Ice's townhouse bringing some hot chocolate for herself and for Tori. Adinda today was wearing some casual clothes instead of her usual Mystic Arkeyan Robes.

"Care for some hot chocolate?" Adinda asked handing Tori a cup, "So how you holding up?"

"Barely," Tori said, "Stacey hates me for divorcing her father and ever since the divorce she's been taking her anger out on me and everyone else. I should've let her stay with her father when I divorced him. Its all my fault that this happened."

"It's not your fault. Ice is right, Stacey's done nothing but complain about losing everything since the divorce and ruin your life as well as his life. It's Stacey's fault so just continue running your business."

"Thanks for the advice and all but Kira hates my guts and she's demanding I do something about Stacey once and for all or she will. What kind of mother would I be if I did something like that?"

Eon, Reina, Rita, Rose and Sara were watching from their own Magic Mirror at the Arkeyan Mansion as Tori continued telling Adinda about how dreadful life with Stacey had become over the last five years. Eon had already told the Arkeyan Sorceress Queens about the Source of Kira's anger and needless to say they were shocked.

"I knew Kira had a bad relationship with her mother but I didn't know it would be this bad," Reina said, "No wonder Kira's lashing out at not only the Popular Posse but Tori's on her hit list."

"I was afraid that Kira's anger would boil over to this point," Sara said, "So what are we going to do?"

"We find a way to build Tori's confidence and get her to see that Stacey's a brat and that Stacey's actions are not Tori's fault," Rose suggested, "We also need to get Kira to understand that Tori's not responsible for Stacey's behavior."

"It won't be easy," Eon stated, "Kira's quite possibly the most difficult Arkeyan to reason with and I'm afraid it may take something big to get her to see just that."

"There is one thing in the Arkeyan records," Rita said bringing up a book about 10,000 year old Arkeyan creations, "About a magical guillotine."

"A guillotine?" Sara asked, "We're trying to get Kira to understand that Tori's not to blame not behead her."

"Wait, hear me out. The Guillotine in question is known as the Arkeyan Guillotine," Rita explained, "It was created 10,000 years ago with materials created from all the Eternal Sources by the Arkeyan Sorcerer King, The Arkeyan Robot King, and the direct ancestors of the Arkeyan Governors as well as the leader of the Mystic Arkeyans, Adinda's Ancestor."

"So what does it do?" Rose asked. "How is this going to prove to Kira that neither Tori nor the Parents of the Popular Posse are to blame for their kids' bad behavior?"

"The Arkeyan Guillotine is basically a loyalty test," Reina said picking up where Rita left off, "If Tori hasn't dishonored the Arkeyans then she'll survive but if she has dishonored the Arkeyan Empire well you know the story."

"So what's this I hear about a magical guillotine?" Maria said as she and Yukie said walking in, The two of them heard everything and they listened in to what was being discussed.

"The Arkeyan Queens are going to use the Guillotine to prove that Tori is innocent," Eon spoke, "Believe me I wish there was another way but given Kira's past I'm afraid judgment by the Arkeyan Guillotine is the only way."

What they didn't know was that Eon was showing this to Xiao Fung as well as the Conversation between Tori and Adinda.

"Penny for your thoughts brother?" Shendu asked walking in with Tso Lan behind him.

"Nothing much just that Eon's planning on using something called the Arkeyan Guillotine to put Tori's loyalty to the Arkeyan Civilization to the test," Xiao Fung pointed out, "If the Guillotine does state that Tori committed no crime against the Arkeyan Empire she'll survive but if she dishonored the Arkeyans Dai Gui's going to be digging her grave."

"I never thought the Arkeyans would have something like that ready and I'm ready to advise against this but," Tso Lan sighed, "If this is the only way to convince Kira that Tori's not responsible for Stacey's actions then it appears we have no choice."

"Again that is correct but for now there are still five more Eternal Sources the Arkeyans must find and locate." Shendu suggested, "Hopefully the Eternal Source quest will ease the anger of the governors and they'll have forgotten about the dishonor that Stacey committed against the Arkeyans by now."

Xiao Fung and Tso Lan both nodded as they decided to check in on Tori. They found she was still chatting with Adinda about recent events while Adinda told Tori about Kira' s past leaving out the fact that she was an Arkeyan Sorceress.

"That explains why Kira's been lashing out at me and why she sent Stacey's therapist to the hospital," Tori said after hearing everything, "Her relationship with her mother is worse than I thought."

"Trust me I was shocked the first time around when I heard the story," Adinda retorted, "So pop quiz what are you going to do?"

"Do what Kira says, I'm gonna get even tougher on Stacey than ever and stop blaming myself for her actions."

"Now that's the progression I've waited to see. Look whose finally coming around. You need to teach Stacey to stop bullying people otherwise she'll end up in the hospital."

Adinda and Tori continued chatting well into the night as the former was proud to help build up the latter's confidence to stand up to her bratty daughter but that was only the easy part, convincing the Governors, especially Kira would be something else entirely.
