Finally the big day has arrived as the 3 head of for the castle only to be halted in front of the main gates by the security guards for inspection of identity check and dress code. Cabba himself was ahead of the 2 to take care of all the formalities out of the way. The head security guard noticed cabba right away making his way towards him to greet the 3.
Draco: ah young cabba. We are honored by your presence and are in great debt to you for your brave act to defend not just our citizens, but the royal family as well.
Cabba: I'm just doing my job to protect the innocent from those that want to cause harm. That is all.
Draco: I see.. We could use someone of your high caliber on the Royal defense guards. Now a days safety is in short supply.
Cabba: I am someone that likes to explore new lands and be on the move. Joining the ranks within the castle is just not my style.
The girls were catching up as now dragons attention was on them.
Draco: and who might you 2 be?
Kale hid behind caulifla as she is nervous to talk with others that aren't her friends.
Caulifla: I'm caulifla and this is kale, we're with cabba and would like to enter the castle. (Caulifla said with a hasty tone)
Draco now looks at kale who now was face to faced with Draco ignoring cauliflas words extending his hand at the shortest of the 3.
Kale: hello mister (in a shy voice slowly extending her hand).
Draco: I hope you have a good time here kale. (Now looking at everyone) all of you. OPEN THE GATES!
The gates finally open.
Now that they are inside the castle they are treated to a very large group of people dancing in the middle of the ball room┏(＾0＾)┛┗(＾0＾) ┓┏(＾0＾)┛┗(＾0＾) ┓.
Live music was being played, music only by the best the land could offer. ヾ(*・。・)ﾉ ヾ(*・。・)ﾉ . People chatting, joking, and just having a good time with what seems to be a large supply of food that could feed an entire village or 2.
Cabba: this is crazy big!
Caulifla: no kidding! It's like everyone from the town has been invited.
Kale: sis I'm scared I don't want to be left alone(looking at Caulifla)
Caulifla: this is an opportunity for you to get out of your comfort zone kale. If you feel uncomfortable just find me or Cabba when ever you want.
cabba: that's right kale. (Eye contact) just have fun and interact with others ok? ( ͡ ͜ʖ ͡ ).
Kale: ok (kale trust her friends and feels assured things will be ok).
Caulifla: (putting her arms on her shoulders)join me or him anything you want, but eventually you will have to learn how to talk to others. (Now letting go).
Cabba was called out by a group of people, caulifla went on the dance floor and kale was left behind.
Cabbas perspective
Dennis: this is the guy, one of your partners from the force? (Asked as cabba was walking towards them).
Jax: hell yeah that's him, one of the best too.
Cabba: hey jax! glad to see you here.
Jax: (turning back to his group) guys this is cabba, cabba these are my friends.
Stonecraft: hi cabba I'm stonecraft, captain of the northern base.
Nixon: Nixon here. I'm a medic trained to heal in the battlefield
Rey: I'm Rey and I'm a galactic patrol of this universe.
Dennis: Dennis, bomb specialist.
Cabba: great to meet you all, have all of you been invited to take part on the ceremony as well?
Jax: we all have. Thing is... None of us are sure.
Rey: most people here are soldiers rather than citizens.
Stonecraft: the king never did anything like this before. 10 generations and not once ever.
Dennis: (looking around the crowd).
Cabba: guess things are changing. It has been rumored there will be announcements of new laws. Hey jax where is the rest of the team?
Jax: well I saw skipper on the dance floor and cenric has been hogging the food. As for the rest I don't know.
Cabba was having a good time telling war stories and sharing good times too.
Cauliflas perspective.
Caulifla: ╭(°ㅂ°)╮ 7(^-^7) ~(‾⌣‾~) ~(‾▿‾)~ ~(‾▿‾~) ~(˘▾˘)~ ~(˘▾˘~) (。⌒∇⌒)。 ~('.'~) └( o )┐ (~'.')~ (∫˘▽˘)∫ └| ∵ |┘ ┏(｀○´)┛ (~˘▾˘)~ (~‾⌣‾)~.
Kales perspective.
Kale went to get food and water as she was not one to drink any sort of alcoholic beverage, not even wine. She took a seat and started to eat till a tall man 2 tables across walked up to her and said.
Tall man: hi I noticed your sitting alone, would you like to join me and my friends over there? (Pointing at his table with 3 other people).
Kale: um ok.
Tall man: I'm francis by the way. What is your name?
Kale: my name is kale.
Francis: interesting name kale. (Now looking at his friends) hey everyone this is someone I just met. Her name is kale, she will be joining us.
Sara: hello kale I'm Sara, francis wife and this is my brother Todd with his girlfriend ze.
Todd: hello.
Ze: hello.
Sara: so tell us kale, are you here alone?
Kale: I'm here with my friends (looking for cabba and caulifla) I can't seem to find them.
Todd: it's a big place here, I'm sure they are ok.
Francis: you know this castle has many hidden doors and tunnels that not even the guards know of past members of my heritage were part of the original architects of the construction of this place. I still have the blueprints.
Ze: I heard this place gets creepy at night. Rumors of walking shadows and loud notices echo through the hallways. (Kale was getting spooked).
Todd too noticed of this and decided to change the conversation to what everyone is talking about.
Todd: anyway... Does anyone have any idea for why the king has opened his humbled home to the people?
Sara: i believe the king will finally make peace between worlds with our neighboring planets the Xoexxewea. It is a shame we have all these anonymous attacks recently in our own home planet and now people fear of war on the horizon.
Francis: do you have a partner kale?
Kale: I do have an interest but...
HELLO HONORED GUEST. YOUR KING HAS FINALLY ARRIVED AND HE IS READY TO GREET YOU ALL!
Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked up at the 3rd floor as a group of guards "Draco included" formed is straight lines facing each other as from the shadow 3 figures emerged. A young girl wearing a dress of the finest silk with beautiful hair and a angel face that could repair a broken mirror at first glance. The second one was a older taller woman with jewelry that represented high/ first class royalty with a small crown over her head. Finally the last one had a larger crown and a staff with a symbol in his chest that said royal blood. Now with authority in his voice the king speaks.
The king: WELCOME EVERYONE! I OPEN MY HOME TO YOU IN HOPE OF HAVING A MORE PERSONAL RELATION WITH THE PEOPLE. ENJOY YOURSELVES TONIGHT FOR TOMORROW I WILL ADDRESS WHAT MANY OF YOU HAVE BEEN CONCERNED WITH. CHANGE IS COMING TO OUR WORLD AND WE WILL CHANGE WITH IT. I LEAVE YOU NOW AS MY GENERALS AND I HAVE MUCH TO DISCUSS FOR THE UPCOMING EVENT.
Both the king and queen left the scene. However the princess remained as the tone of the music began to slow down. As she makes it to the first floor her eyes are set on cabba. Great interest in her eyes. She makes her way to him.
Princess: warrior I would like this dance with you.
Cabba: ahh? (Jax whispers in his ear).
Jax: dude you cannot say no to royal blood.
Cabba: yes princess (grabs her gently and walks with her to the dance floor.
Caulifla at this time was stuffing her face with food working up an appetite after all the dancing she has finished doing. Caulifla decided to see how kale was doing. Looking around for her she finds her with 4 others and walks to her.
Caulifla: hey kale who are your new friends?
Kale: sis I'm not scared to talk to talk to new people
Caulifla: that's good kale. Soon you will be able to depend on yourself. How about you introduce me to your new pals?
Kale: ...
Caulifla: ?
Kale: ...
Caulifla: kale what is it?
Kale: who... Who is that person cabba is with?
Caulifla turns around the direction kale is facing.
Caulifla: （＊〇□〇）…！
Both kale and caulifla see cabba dancing with the princess in a slow dance face to face with the head of the princess on his shoulder.
Princess: I like you cabba.
Cabba: I like dancing with you too.
Princess: you should go to my room, it has the best view of the village.
Cabba: sure Raven I would like that very much.
Kales thoughts: oh kami oh kami I knew Cabba would have interest in other girls. She's taken interest in him. out of everyone why him.
Cauliflas thoughts: how could he. He would be going for a girl like her with her flawless hair, non greasy face and oh that body of hers. Kami no!She's going to take him away from us...FROM ME!
Authors note: finally we made it to the castle. This chapter took longer to make due to my dumb### pressing the delete button lol. Things are heating up between the three. What will cabba do next?
