On a very cold winter, Damas helps Mack build a snowman.
"Is it true, big brother? Are you really going to see Mommy and Daddy in 6 years?" Mack asked.
"Yup. I'm seeing them. I really miss them so much." Damas said.
"Man, Dammy, you're so lucky! I wish I would be the one to see them." Mack complained.
As Damas and Mack finished building the snowman, Buddy showed up.
"Hey Damas, is it okay if I just go with you to Domincan? I never met your parents and I was hoping that they would like me." Buddy demand.
"Sorry Buddy. It's just me, but I can get something back from Domincan, okay?"
Buddy got upset and leaves. Mack looks at Damas. "Your best friend is weird." He said.
"He's not weird; he just wanted to see what Domincan looks like is all." Damas said.
4 years later, on Thanksgiving, 12 year old Damas is reading a book called The Shining. It's a horror book written by Stephen King. His favorite part is where the main character goes to the hole in the door and says "Here's Johnny!"
As Damas keeps reading, he heard a tap on his window. Damas puts his book down and goes over to the window. He sees Buddy throwing little rocks at his window.
Damas opens his window and looks at Buddy. "What is it, Buddy?" He asked.
"When you said, I can get something back from Domincan, what kind of something are you talking about?" Buddy asked.
"I don't know. Stuff, I guess." Damas guessed.
Buddy just looked at Damas in a complete annoying look. "Seriously?" Buddy then leaves.
Damas just shook his head. Buddy really wants to go to Domincan with him.
2 years later, it was the day. 14 year old Damas is wearing his favorite red sweater, black pants, and combat boots. He was also wearing his big orange crown that keeps falling down to his eyes and the red cape that Monglia gave to him 6 years ago.
"Wow. You look great, Damas." Donna said.
"Thanks. Do you think Mama and Papa will still recognize me?" Damas asked.
"Of course they will. They will never forget their 3rd child." Donna told him.
"Yeah. By the way, Dammy, tell Mom and Dad that Alec says hi." Alec said.
"Uh… Sure." Damas goes outside from the Palace and starts to walk to the Air Train station, but only to be blocked by Buddy.
"Okay, I know you're going to Domincan right now-"
"Buddy, you can't come to Domincan with me and I don't know what to get when I come back from Domincan. Okay?!" Damas exclaimed.
"Actually, I was going to say be careful." Buddy said.
Damas got him embarrassed by that. "Oh. Um… Thanks. I'll be back very soon." Soon Damas walks pass Buddy.
"See ya pal!" Buddy waved goodbye at his best friend. Damas, while walking, also waves goodbye.
Damas arrived at the Air Train station. He got his ticket to Domincan and aboard on the Air Train. Then it leaves to Domincan.
Damas was the only person to be on the Air Train. He wondered why nobody aboard it to go to Domincan. Damas pulls out his Seal of Mar from his pocket and looks at it.
The Air Train has arrived in Domincan and Damas gets off of it. He looks around. Somehow Domincan is different. It's become a desert now instead of the forest he once seen.
'Strange. How did the simple forest turned into a desert.' Damas thought. But he pushed the subject back. He came here to see his mother and father.
Damas walks through the desert towards the castle which was his home. He wipes the sweat off from his head. It sure is hot in the desert. He could of at least from a water bottle with him.
Damas has made it to the castle. He looks at it. It looks destroyed. But he pushes the subject away. Damas opens the doors and went inside the castle.
Damas looks around the castle. It looked like crap. He began to look for his mother and father.
"Mama? Papa? It's me, Damas. Are you home?" Damas called. But there was no response.
Damas goes upstairs to go to the throne room. They're always in the throne room sometime a day.
As Damas made it to the throne room, he opens the door. When he did, he saw two skeletons lying on the floor. Damas was in shock. He recognizes the skeletons as his mother and father. Damas couldn't believe it. He just couldn't, but he is seeing it. His mother and father, King Reginald and Queen Libethen, are both dead…
Damas returned to Haven City and tells Alec, Donna and Mack about their parents. They were all shock when they heard the news. Mack started to cry for his parents. Donna holds Mack tightly as tears started to flow down her face. Alec just angrily sweared at the moment. Damas just went into his room and locked himself in there, never to come out. The four children of King Reginald and Queen Libethen are now orphans…
Monglia has come to the Palace to visit Damas. She had heard all about King Reginald and Queen Libethen's deaths and she wanted to cheer him up.
She knocks on his door gently. "Damas? Are you in here?" She asked.
"Go away." Damas sadly said.
"Damas, please come out of here. I'm worried about you. Buddy's worried about you too. I wanted to help you."
"I don't need help. My mother and father are dead and it's all my fault." Damas said.
Monglia was a little bit surprised about this. "Damas. Your parents' deaths were not your fault. There was a war going on in Domincan. And somehow that war killed your parents. You just didn't know."
"Did the war also make my birth home a complete wasteland?" Damas bitterly asked.
"I don't know. Look, I know you don't want to come out, but you can't just stay in your room forever. I need you, Damas. You're my friend. I can heal you."
Monglia waits for a response from Damas. Suddenly, Damas opens the door and looks at her. "Really? You would heal my pain away?" He asked.
"Of course. I wanted you to be happy, Damas. I want you to come out of your darkness and come back to the light." Monglia grabs Damas' hand and holds it tight. "Please, Damas. Your siblings need you. Buddy needs you. I need you."
Damas looks at Monglia. He blushes very light. She is so beautiful. Her hair, her smile, her eyes. But Damas snaps out of it. He smiles. "Okay. I'll come back to the light."
Monglia smiles really bright, but somehow she was pulled into a hug. "Thank you, Monglia." Damas whispers.
She couldn't stop herself. Monglia returned the hug and then she blushes really hard. "You're welcome."
As he continues to hug Monglia, he felt something in his chest that makes his heart beat very fast. He then realizes that Damas has fallen in love with Monglia, but, like Monglia, he is too shy to tell her how he feels.
