Hey guys I know I said I would finish my Rio story first but I decided to give you a taste of this story so you know what to look forward to when I finish the Rio story and come to this. As you can tell I have decided to call this chapter 2 as The Prelude was technically chapter 1 so I don't confuse myself or anyone else.
Chapter 2: Royal
It was a peaceful day in the land of the Eevelutions. All tribes were at the business of thinking towards the future and keeping the peace with each other. As much as they were free from human intervention which was elsewhere in the world. They Tribes did have small technology of their own like they did establish their own building like homes but they were more made of natural resources like wood, rock, metal in the ground found and anything else available for them to use.
In the Espeon Clan, they were busy all at work. This tribe was a couple of villages and one big town as it was too big to fit in one location as the tribe was at over one thousand individuals and they were one of the biggest tribes in the Continent. In the Main town was where the Alpha's of this clan reside. Queen Lyra was the proud ruler of the Espeon, every individual was precious to her in her clan. Alongside her was King Dalis who was equally as devoted as his mate, both building up a proud future for their clan.
They were stood on a balcony on their home sat with Queen Lyra leaning herself against Dalis. They both smiled happily as they watched the people moving around below. They had a little yard in front of their home and a small gate to enter and in front of that a few streams went around the town a little. Along with the Espeon's, you could see some young Eevee walking around with their parents or playing with their friends.
Queen Lyra was the first to speak "Very peaceful isn't it dear". Dalis smiled happily saying to her "Yes, a peaceful and strong Kingdom, very happy to be here today, every day, just to see this sight". Lyra then looked to him saying "Do you think it is time to see the new garden yet". Dalis amused by this "The new public garden…maybe, I thought it wasn't ready yet". Lyra moved away from him and looked over the balcony saying "Well it is just about, just needs the final touches, I'm thinking we can do see some good work being done there".
Dalis tilted his head saying "Maybe, we could do that later". Suddenly they heard a voice "Mother, Dad". They looked behind them to see the Second Child, Prince Asra, the one with the brighter blue eyes and a brighter red gem then the usual Espeon colours. They turned to him and Dalis said to him "Hello son, how are you today". Asra smiled to them as he stood in front of them "I'm okay, you asked for me". Lyra stepped forward to him and nuzzled him caringly "Have you seen your sister today, she has been asking for you".
Asra grinned before saying "I'm not surprised there". Dalis sat in front of him saying "Yep, Pearl really enjoys her time with you". Asra titled his head a second and said "I do like to play with her, but I do want to have some time to myself and my friends". Dalis and Lyra smiled to each other before saying "Of course Asra, but be sure to humour your sister a bit as well".
Asra nodded quickly to them but then thought towards another matter "So…erm…When are we going to the meeting". Lyra was curious to this "You mean the meeting with the Alpha's from Flareon, Jolteon and Glaceon….and the …Umbreon kingdoms". Asra well aware that tension was evident between the Espeon and Umbreon tribes but he failed to understand they were at fragile relations.
He was aware that the Espeon and Umbreon tribes were at war for centuries close to when they first met where they had peace for 10 years before the Great War which reduced the Espeon and Umbreon from hundreds of thousands when they owned the entire continent. Where they were heavily reduced down to less than a thousand population each.
They were forced to a mutual truce as they were both close to the brink of destruction. Since then this opened up the territories where the other Eevelutions moved in and claimed the lost territories, since then however they have not communicated other the Alpha's or the one unlucky occasion when they run into each other.
However in the North Territory: The Eeveelution territory which is ruled by King Ventus and Queen Pearl, the Jolteon and Glaceon king and Queen where Espeon and Umbreon are known to co-exist there better, but just about. Asra was always curious as to why the relations between the two tribes were on fragile relations. The Espeon had inherited the west while the Umbreon had the East territory.
The northern territories were taken by the Flareon, Jolteon, Vaporeon, and the Eeveelution kingdoms. The Glaceon had the south east Territory and the Leafeon's took the South west, the centre was more neutral or connecting certain territories. However the South part of the Continent next to the ocean's but as big as the other was completely unused as a territory for a tribe.
Asra looked to his parents as he continued the conversation "Yeah the one next week". Dalis nodded to him "Yeah we are going there to meet with those kingdoms we said in the Eeveelution kingdom so it is fairly on mutual ground". The blue eyed Espeon was now curious and asked "So how come you are having this meeting". Lyra looked to Dalis before finishing "Oh we are discussing about the land in the south, what to be done with it, of course, us, the Glaceon, Jolteon, Leafeon, Eeveelution and the…Umbreon will bring the main discussion to it as we are closer to it".
Asra looked down having a think as Lyra said "And you three will be coming along if you want to". Asra nodded and happily said "Yeah, I will be coming, I have never been to the Eeveelution kingdom before". Lyra happily said "It is a wonderful place, you'll have all kinds of experiences there and you'll get to meet King Ventus and Queen Pearl". Asra shook his head amused "Yeah pretty interesting my sister has the same name as a Queen".
Dalis chuckled a little and said "Yeah it is a little". Asra then turned away "Anyway I will see you later, I'm going to go see what everyone else is up to". Lyra happily said to her son "Okay dear, have a good day then". Asra nodded and they bid their goodbyes for a moment and Asra was quick to leave the balcony and exited the room. The Alpha's was big but not massive but it was nicely done up with all the materials. Asra begun making his way downstairs until he ran until one of the caretakers of the home who was an Espeon female known as Kiri "good afternoon Prince Asra". Asra nodded his head and kindly said "Hello Kiri, you alright". Kiri nodded and sweetly said "Yeah, your sister is waiting for you downstairs".
Asra rolled his eyes and said "Okay let's go get this over with". Kiri grinned as Asra moved on and made his way downstairs and came to a hall just before the doorway leading to the front yard. Asra could see a blue coloured Espeon facing away from him. He smiled and said "Hey pearl". The Espeon looked around to him and happily smiled "Hi Asra, how is my favourite big brother".
Pearl ran up and gave Asra a hug who was a bit bigger than her. Asra then asked Pearl "So Pearl, I hear you have been looking for me today. Pearl happily smiled and said "Yeah, do you want to come to the market today, Katy is there and she wants to meet up with us". Asra was a little worried over that as Katy who was Pearl's best friend fancied Asra badly and wanted to be with him while Asra thought the complete opposite.
He politely said to her "I think I will have to say no this time sis, As much as I want to spend the afternoon with you, I promised my friends I would hang out with them today, but we can play later though if you want". Pearl was initially a little disappointed but her face immediately perked up "Okay Asra, we play later as you promised your friends.
Asra nodded but secretly was pleased as he wanted to avoid Katy. He said to Pearl though "So did you have a good morning". Pearl nodded "Yeah me and flor, went to see the new garden, it is so beautiful, and you should go see it sometime". Asra thought about that for a moment before returning to say "I might do that sometime sis". Pearl looked to the stair and smiled "Well I best let you get to your friends, I need to see mom and dad first before I go to meet Katy".
Asra nodded and he gave her a nudge saying "Okay you will find them on the balcony, I will see you later". The blue coloured Espeon went running up the stairs saying happily "Okay, see you later big bro". Asra sighed and chuckled before thinking to himself "No matter how old she is getting, she never ceases to make me laugh".
Asra then turned back to the entrance and walked over to it while he used his left foreleg to push open the door. He then walked outside into the beautiful blue sky with the sun shining bright. He walked down the yard towards the gate but he saw the gate open with another bigger Espeon walking up. Asra immediately tensed up as he saw it was his brother: Prince Cortez who was the next in line for the throne after their parents. Asra was hoping to walk past with no problems.
However he saw Cortez stop in front of him saying "Hey little bro, you heading to see your loser friends today". Asra made a glare towards him saying "At least I have friends Cortez, and they aren't losers". Cortez made a smile saying "Why do I need friends, I am the future king to our tribe". Asra looked away annoyed by this, he was jealous how Cortez was ahead of him for the throne "Just because you are, doesn't mean you would be a great king".
Cortez narrowed his eyes a little "And you would be". Asra shook his head "I'm not saying I would be a great king, but at least I care about others". Cortez made a laugh before saying "I do care about the tribe, and with mom and dad's guidance I will be a great king for our people, and as your future king, you should show some respect". Asra narrowed his eyes "I'll show some respect when you act mature and care about others". Asra begun walking past but Cortez hipped his tail which made Asra trip on his back leg "Learn your place, little bro, you will never be a king". Cortez begun walking off inside the home and Asra glared to him.
He walked out of the gate and it was closed behind him "Why does he act so immature, How can he think to be a great king one day, of course one day I will be a king….will I". Asra shook his head and walked off to meet with his friends: Tiago, Mace and Cheryl. He shook his head thinking to himself "Oh well, let's have a good day".
Meanwhile, elsewhere in another part of the lands…
In the Umbreon territory, it was just as peaceful as the Espeon's were. The Alpha's of their tribe, King Rawk and Queen Ava, were well respected in their tribe. Believing they were leading them to the future. In the main town centre, at the market place there were two Umbreon on a trip around. One was an adult of a bit of age and a normal coloured Umbreon. The other was an adolescent shiny Umbreon of 16 years of age, with blue rings around her and blue eyes as well.
They were on their way home. The adult had a bag strapped to his back. The adult looked to the younger Umbreon who was in thoughts "Carly what is the matter honey". Carly the younger Umbreon looked to the adult "I'm okay dad, I am just waiting to get home to see Joey". The older Umbreon named Thomas said "I know, you little brother is waiting.
Carly looked down and said "When are we going on our trip". Thomas chuckled to her saying "Oh up to the Eeveelution kingdom for a little vacation, next week. We have arranged to travel there when the Alpha's go for their meeting, give us a chance to see them again". Thomas was a close friend with the Alpha's who was going to travel up with them.
Carly was curious to this and said "I have never seen the Eeveelution kingdom, what is it like". Thomas smiled happily for this saying "It is a place of peace and cooperation. All species of Eevee live there in perfect harmony. I had thought to take you and Joey there once". Carly was curious by this and asked her father "So why didn't you?" Thomas looked down a little before saying "Well it was originally your mom's idea, but… after what happened".
Carly looked down a little saddened by this "Oh". Thomas not wanting his young daughter to become upset said "Anyway let's get this food home and then we will go see how Joey is doing with his friends". Carly made a smile there saying "Yeah, he is probably having a great time, knowing how excited he always is". Joey was only 9 years of age, he was still a young Eevee who could evolve starting when he reaches 10. The little Eevee was extremely playful and always loved to play around but knowing him when it comes to danger he was a little dense about it
Carly was a shiny Umbreon who was caring to her family but did exhibit curiosity about a lot of things. Thomas who has been there for her ever since his mate Azael, and Carly and Joey's mother died many years ago. He has been determined to give them a good start to their lives before they are old enough to make their own decisions and Carly isn't too far off from the age now when she turns 18 but she still has just under 2 years to go yet. Carly looked to her father and said "So dad, can I go out later after we have been back home". It was approaching afternoon and Carly did usually go out at the age to be with friends. Thomas smiled and said "Of course you can, just remember to…"
Carly knew what he was going to be saying and quickly interrupted him "Make sure I am back by 10. I know dad you don't need to remind me". Thomas chuckled to his daughter saying "That's my girl". Carly made a smile and they hurried on back to the house and arrived.
They entered through the front door and they hurried to their kitchen area which had a few boxes with food to place in. Thomas stepped forward and begun sorting out the food into their proper places. Carly looked around to see no one was in. She looked around the living room and thought "Wait isn't Joey here". She looked around the couple of tables that were in the living room and the cushions that were made but nothing.
Suddenly she heard a giggle, from somewhere. She smiled now as she knew what was going on, she looked around the cushions again but could not see anything. She looked under and could see a little tail of an Eevee and smiled "I wonder who is under the cushion". She lifted it to see it was an Eevee toy and she knew what was going to happen. Suddenly she heard a playful yell and she found herself getting jumped on. An Eevee jumped on her back and to amuse the Eevee Carly lied down where the Eevee was on her back.
The Eevee happily said "I got you big sis". Carly amusingly shook her head "Yes Joey you got me". Joey the little Eevee said "Yes I win again, you will never beat me Carly". Carly lied down saying "Trust me Joey one day I am going to win". Thomas was observing to see the Adolescent shiny Umbreon playing with her little brother. She looked to a picture which was crafter of 4 creatures. 2 Umbreon and 2 Eevee. He looked to see himself alongside a female Umbreon leaning against him with a Shiny Eevee in front of them with the small Eevee to the side of the Shiny Eevee. Thomas sighed saying "I wish you were still here Azael, you kids are growing up into strong and fit Pokémon".
Carly looked to the window which wasn't covered in glass like human ones were but mainly in other materials. She begun curiously thinking "But what happens for me now, I am nearly an adult and there is still so much to discover. What is next mother". Carly looked back to Eevee who was playing around with her and made a smile
