A Prince's Past

While Prince was searching for Sweetie, his horrible past came back to him and was haunting his mind. In a flash back, he was remembering his adoptive mother was just crushed by his own adoptive father, the king of the cranes. He felt she was no use to him anymore because she started making friends with other appliances. The king thought it was inferior and clouded that thought that cranes were above all other machines and everyone else was useless. He even told Prince before that he could never be king unless he married another crane.

Prince started to cry a little at this memory. He hated his father and was a little jealous of Sweetie that she had such a loving family, while he never did. He wanted Sweetie, not just for the crane purity, but he wanted that nice family in his life too.

He soon discovered though that Sweetie wasn't at her home and he immediately started looking for her. Ocean Moon then hoped over to him, not knowing what went on between him and Sweetie.

"Hello there." She called out

"Hello, is Sweetie around?" Prince asked

"Oh you just missed her, she went to a home belonging to some friends of ours." Ocean Moon told him

"Oh, then I'll look for her around there then." Prince replied

"If you really want to get her attention, try howling like a wolf. She's known for doing that herself." Ocean Moon told him

"Like this?" Prince asked, then howled as perfect as Sweetie could, except louder

"Yeah…just like that." Ocean Moon responded "You cranes seems to have a real knack for howling."

"It's a skill I guess." Prince responded, then asked "Can you point me in the direction of where Sweetie went?"

"Of course, big boy." Ocean Moon replied and pointed in the direction of Ellie's house.

"Thank you, mame. " Prince responded, moving in the direction of the house.

That lamp seemed nice to him, despite them being different. No wonder his own mother liked them before she died. He really wished he could have a life like that, but he knew he couldn't when he knew his father was still alive. He had to get Sweetie and explain why he really needed her, hoping she'd understand.
