Chapter 7
Sparks POV
As we walk on the path towards the huge castle. I take a huge look around, the trees and everything looks exactly like any other regular planet that's inhabited. The sky here is a more beautiful shade though, and I've noticed how bright blue it is during the day. Looking at Esme I think about how weird it is to see another one of us that isn't part of the team or trying to kill us. (Mandarin) She looks exactly like us but no special weapons. Could her species be a one more closely related to actual monkies? Are we related? Could we have been from a place like this? But the alchemist…wouldn't it mean he….stole us? Even if that were the case we were created for a good purpose. This is our role.
''We are here.'' Esme snaps me away from my thoughts. I look up and my mouth drops open. I see a huge wall and behind it stood the castle. Me and Nova look at each other. I know we aren't mentally prepared to see what we think we are about to see. I mean, Esme's appearance was enough as it is.
''Are you two ready to discover more about your own kind then you thought you knew?'' Says Esme with a smile. I look at Nova.
''Uhm, Hold on a minute.'' I say as I pull Nova to the side.
''I don't know why. I feel a little unsure about this.'' I say to her. She looks down.
''Me too. Its almost as if I'm afraid to discover something I never thought existed.'' She breathes out. I nod.
''But we have to. Besides she can probably help us find the others.'' She says. I knew she was right. We turn to look at Esme and she nods. She faces the door and closes her eyes. We watch with awe, as she lifts her hand, palm facing the door and opens the huge door with her mind. Almost like Antuari.
''I thought you said you didn't have powers.'' I stated flatly.
''Oh these aren't powers, Its just a small ability that I learned through some magic taught to me. '' She says. I look at Nova and she shrugs.
''Can't wait till Gibson hears about this.'' I mumble.
''Me and a few others on top are able to open the gate this way. If another monkey wishes to leave, they must knock and be approved.'' She says.
''Approved? Do you not all know each other''
''Yes but you will never know. And the castle needs to be away from any sort of evil. It can cause a huge disaster. The castle is held up by our purity and wellness. We can't have the castle come down along with our homes and food and resources. Without this castle, this entire planet will rotten, trees will slowly die along with any other animal species living here.'' says Esme.
''But what's so important about this castle? Why is it attached to this planet like that?'' Nova asked. My question exactly.
''Us robot monkies were the first here. We built a civilization and along with that, came our gem. A gem hid somewhere inside the castle. If evil were to pass these walls, the castle will slowly rotten as the evil will take over. The gem isn't strong enough to fight evil back….. It will crack and disappear as if it were never here, and we will go along with it.''
I stare at Esme. How can such a place be so dependent on these robot monkies? They have been lucky enough not to have any evil come their way. I look at the castle.
''Shall we go in?'' asks Esme. Me and Nova nod as we enter the walls.
Nova's POV
A planet depending on the good will of these monkeys. Its almost hard to believe. But where do we fit into all of this? Are we apart of this too?
''This castle is very big inside. You will see a lot of monkies once the door is opened. They will be shocked to see more of us but just be careful on how you react to their reactions. You can't make them think there is any sort of evil inside you two.'' Esme explains. We nod and with a knock she opens the doors. The big doors of the castle open and we walk in. It is huge. Bigger then anything I have seen. I see a long hallway heading straight and doors upon doors. The castle is a beautiful crystal structure from the inside, filled with beautiful colored vines and flowers.
The moment we step in we see many of….us staring at us. All of them! Different colors but just like us! They slowly approach. Esme holds up her arms.
''I have found two of our kind. They are safe monkeys. They saved me from danger and I owe them my gratitude. No more further explanation will be made until later tonight!'' She announces. Its dead silent as we walk through them all. They stare at us and I can't help but stare back. This doesn't feel real. Its like our own world. Our place.
''All those doors you see are rooms for each and every monkey here. We all live in this castle. We will be passing by bigger rooms such as our labs, resource rooms, and clinic.''
I see the huge labs as we pass them. Along with much more monkeys stopping what they are doing just to stare.
We head into another pair of doors which Esme opens and go inside. Its another long hallway. But this hallway contains Bigger doors.
''From here on out we only have the princess's, me and my sister, plus the top fighters. Each room here is bigger and has enough space for each of us.''
''Another princess?'' Asks sparks.
''Yes, me and my sister. We were both chosen to rule.'' She says.
''Chosen how?'' I ask. Esme smiles.
''Which ever monkey is chosen at birth with this stone.'' She point at the gem on her helmet. ''Are the chosen ones. Me and my sister are twins and were born with the same gem. Meaning purity and ability to lead.''
As we continue to walk down the hallway I almost cant believe it still.
''Esme!'' We hear someone shout. We turn around and see a dark red monkey, with grey eyes glare at us.
''Where have you been?! And who are these?! Intruders!?'' He says getting his guard up. I fold a fist. Don't try anything. Esme gets in front of him.
''They aren't any danger! Can't you see! They are just like us!'' Esme exclaims. The dark red monkey takes out his huge stick with a sharp end.
''They arent like us! We were attacked by a few others earlier! Along with a human. They contain more then we know of and cant be trusted!'' Others?! That must be the team.
''That's our team! Where are they!'' Shouts Sparks.
''I don't need to answer any questions from you!'' He yells at sparks. I glare and get on guard.
''Raze, they saved me from danger. They want to know more about who we are. They are like us but with more advantages!'' Says Esme.
''Yea! Now tell us what you did with our team!'' I shout.
''Are they here?'' Asks Esme. Raze nods.
''Dungeon, they injured some of our warriors badly. We cant let out guard down.'' Says raze while glaring at us.
''Listen buddy, we aren't here to cause trouble. We're just trying to look for out team.'' Says sparks. Esme nods.
'' Please bring them up here Raze. I'm sure they wont cause any harm.'' Raze glares at her.
''Alright, but it's on you!'' He says as he walks away.
''That's Raze, the top warrior.'' She says.
''What about our team?'' I ask.
''He will bring them up here. And when he does we can talk about any questions you guys may have.'' She says.
I hope the team is okay. I'm sure they were attacked pretty badly as well. I miss them and I'm sure we all feel better and safer together.
