Hey everyone I am back and here comes Chapter 9. Sorry for taking so long to update but my friends didn't want to leave me alone when they found out I was back. P.S, I own only the plot and any made up characters.

Chapter 9

Royal Secret and Coronation

Friday Morning, School. No Ones Prove

There was still a few minutes left till the first bell and our group of friends were stuck half way to their first class. For some reason there was so many people out on the corridor that there was very little space to actually walk. And the fact that they were surrounded mostly by the zombie students who move way to slow. Didn't help them in any way.

"Man there is no way that we will get to our first class on time today." Deuce sighted. Zelius just smirked at his words. "Well maybe you won't because I guarantee you myself and Robecca will be there at least five minutes early." He said. "And what do you mean by that ?" Robacca who was standing right beside him asked. "That." He answered and lifter her up princess style. Then he released out his wings, spread them out and flew up still holding Robecca. The others were a bit surprised except Neighthan who knows Zelius way too well and actually knew what he meant and Ghoulia who had a feeling that he will do that when he said that he will be in class early. Zelius turned to them and said "See you in ten minutes." And then flew away with Robecca.

Time Skip Lunch Time

Cleo and Deuce were the last to join their friends at the table but as soon as they sat down Cleo start to give out to Zelius. "I can't believe that you did that us this morning !" She shouted at him. "Did what exactly ?" He asked seemingly confused. "You just simply kidnapped Robecca and left us to stand there for another ten minutes !" She was angry. "Ok Cleo firstly, calm down and secondly since when is carrying your girlfriend to calls called kidnapping ?" "You know exactly what I mean." She went on. "Ok I have to admit that I do and so what. I didn't break any of the school rules by using my powers or to be exact by flying. Or did I ?" He looked at her. "No you did not but still good friends always keep together." She stated. "Oh right sorry Neightean I should have came back for you I hope that you will forgive me." Zelius said in a sarcastic tone and patted Neighthan's back. Who just laughed. "Will you stop that !" Cleo shouted at him. He in the other hand got serious in an instant. "Ok Cleo I think that I know what's your problem. You either expected that I will come back for you or you expected for Deuce to do something as cool as me but he didn't." He finished and looked her in the eyes. "Oh and no offence to you Deuce you are cool." He quickly added. Cleo just glared at him with anger in her eyes. "Well let me tell you something Cleopatra. You will never control me. I am a free spirit and only my parents and my beloved princess Robecca can in some way control me. But you will never even in a million years own that privilege. Got that ?" Zelius looked at Cleo in such a way that a shiver went down her spine. "Well if you don't remember I am the royalty in this school so technically I do control you." Cleo said in a fake proud tone. In reality she was a bit afraid now. "Maybe you are but if you would've been paying attention during your private classes with your father you would known that I am a pure blood crowned prince of Japan and technically right now I have more authority then you will ever have in your entire life !" Zelius shouted but then he imminently covered his mouth with his right hand and his eyes widened. The others just looked at him in shock. Especially Cleo and Robecca.

"Zelius what d-do you mean by that ?" Robecca asked him and grabbed his hand. "No no no no. I didn't just say that. It didn't happened. Neighthan please tell me that I am dreaming one of the worst nightmares of my life." Zelius looked at his best friend. "Sorry Z but I think it's all out now and I know that you don't like talking about it but I think they all deserve an explanation." Neighthan said in a sad tone. Zelius took a few deep breaths to calm down. "Ok then if you want to know what I just meant come to my place today after school." He said, gathered his things up, kissed Robecca on the cheek and headed towards the entrance of the school. "Wait where are you going ?" Robecca ran up to him. "Home my princess I need a long, quiet and alone meditation session to calm down and clear off my mind." He rose up her hands to his lips and kissed them. Then he turned around and left.

"Where is he going ?" Cleo asked Robecca when she got back to the table."Home he needs to calm down. "Wait a minute it's the middle of the school day. He can't just go home. No one can." Cleo protested. "Oh believe me when I tell you that he can." Neightha said in a worried tone.

Dark Family Residence

When Zelius walked through the door his parents imminently knew that something bad had happened. His mother grabbed the phone and called the school to say that something happened at home and Zelius had to leave school. While his father took him to his office for talk.

In The Office

"So what happened ?" He asked. "I got into a fight with Cleo over a very stupid and unimportant thing to be honest. And during it I reveled my secret." David sighted at that. "Well son I told you many times that royal blood is nothing to be ashamed of." David said calmly. "Easy for you to say dad. You are just Noble with the title of a Duke. While I thanks to my mother am a prince that will probably have to become the next emperor. But for it to happen people will have to die and suffer. Including me and I don't want that !" Zelius shouted and ran out of the room. David ran after him but his wife stopped him. "Leave it David you won't work anything out with him right now. At least not when he is in such state." She explained.

Time Skip, After School. Dark Family Residence

Around six everyone including Neighthan who already knew everything appeared at Zeliuse's house. David opened the door for them. "He is in 'the' room." David said when they entered. "Lead the way Neighthan since you know what I'm talking about." He smiled at him. "No problem uncle." Neighthan replied and lead the way.

The Great Picture Room

Neighthan knocked on the door. "Come on in." Zelius replied in a lifeless like tone. And so they did. Zelius was standing with his back turned towards them and his hands in his pockets. He was looking at a picture of himself standing behind a guy more or less his age that was sitting on a wheelchair. After a minute or two he turned to face them. Robecca imminently ran up to him and hugged him. He didn't even care to take his hands out of his pockets and hug her back. He just stood there looking at the floor. "Zelius please explain all of this to me I am confused and worried to death." She said "I will do it in a minute but first you all should take a seat it might take a while."

Most of them sat on the giant black sofa that was standing near the lifeless fireplace. Only Neighthan and Jackson sat in the armchairs beside it, while Zelius reminded standing. "So I should start with the fact that my mom's dad. My grandfather Hiashi is the twin brother of the former emperor of Japan Toshiro. Which as you can guess makes him a crowned prince and my mom a princess. Both my grandfather and granduncle Toshiro had only one child. I have no idea why so don't ask. My grandfather took care of my mother's family clan and became the marshal (A.n marshal is the highest army status you can get. At least that what my own grandpa told me and he was a general back in his times.) of the Japanese army. And because of that he was take off the list up for the throne. I also don't know way so again please don't ask.

So when my mother was born that made her second in line to the throne. She was right behind her cousin and my uncle Arashi. 18 years ago my uncle's son came to this world. His name is Edward. At the time everyone was happy. A father had a son and a country had a prince and the royal family in general had a heir to the throne. But that all changed when Edward was 5 months old. He caught a dieses called The Fallen Angel. It's a very rare dieses that only Tengu demons can be infected with and it's also the only thing that can kill us. Only a few months infants can become sick with it. But there is no cure to it and you can't stop it in any way. When you get sick with it you can only try to live with the pain and problems that it causes you. This dieses makes your own defensive system attack you from the inside. And I have to add that Tengu defensive system is 3 times as strong as any other monsters thanks to the magical powers of our wing feathers. When I was born the whole Japan was rejoiced once again since a new and healthy prince meant that they will have an emperor to rule over them when the other will serve his time on the throne. My parents told me about it when I was eight. I thought that it's a joke and lived as if nothing happened. I acted like that partly because I had no idea that my mom had to give up her rights to the throne to be able to marry my dad. Since he is only a Duke. And was certain that she will rule one day if anything will happen to uncle or Edward. When I found out about that I was a bit shocked with it but I still made very little out of it. Then something changed inside of me when I met Edward for the first time when I was 12. I don't know why we only met after so many years but right now I don't even care. When I saw Edward the first thing I wanted to do was fall down on my knees and pry for him. He looked so weak and in constant pain. He has heart trouble, severe asthma, diabetes, his eye sight is really bad and he rides on a wheel chair since he is 6. And when I found out that Edward won't live up to his 21 birthday I understood that my parents and grandpa Hiashi weren't laying I will be the emperor one day whether I want to or not. But the deal is that I don't want to because I know that for it to happen someone that I treat like a brother will have to die and a father who loves him will have to loose his only child." Zelius took off his glasses and wiped the tears that gathered in his eyes and looked at the picture again. "I pray everyday for Edward to live but I know that it useless."

Robecca imminently ran up to hug him and this time he hugged her back. "Zelius I know how you feel but we can't always change our destiny. Sometimes we just have to accept it. And yours even though it will hurt a few people including you is not the worse so you should thank god for that." She hugged him harder. After a few minutes he calmed down and looked at his friends. "I don't tell people that I am a crowned prince because whenever I wear my crown I feel like Edward will die and I also don't want to be treated like a prince because it just reminds me that Edward will die within the next 3 years." Zelius explained.

"It's ok bro. Don't worry to us you will always be just Zelius the son of a baseball super star." Deuce jokingly smiled at him. Zelius returned the smile. "Thanks Deuce." Deuce smiled at him even wider. "Is that you and Edward on that picture ?" Robecca asked looking up at it. "Yes it was taken 3 years ago during one of Edwards rare outside walks." Zelius explained and looked at the picture once again and turned back to his friends. "Cleo." He sighted. "Sorry for what I said this morning. But when I get angry I tend to just tell you the most dreadful truth while looking straight into their eyes. It's one of the bad thing I inherited form my dad." He smiled at her. "No I am sorry Zelius I shouldn't gotten angry at you over such a stupid thing. After all I use my Egyptian tools nearly all the time so you can fly and no one can stop you." She returned the smile. "And now you my princess." He said and turned to her. "Sorry for not telling you that earlier but I just want to forget about it. It's just too painful to think about it." He looked into her eyes and kissed her hand. "It's ok I understand. After all I love you." She hugged him tight. "I love you too my princess." He hugged her back. They stayed like that for a few minutes until Neighthan broke the silence in the room. "Well to be honest we really can consider Robecca a princess because after all she is dating a crowned prince." He joked. Zelius laughed. "Only you can make jokes about my crown and make me actually laugh at them you know." Zelius stated. "Yeah I do but now as your best friend and someone that plays the role of your royal advisor and right hand at once I would advise you to properly crown your princess." He joked again. But this time Zelius didn't laugh. "You know what my advisor it's actually I great idea. I do have one crown that doesn't bring back bad memories." Neighthan and the others were a bit shocked. But Zelius smiled at them. "Follow me." He said and left the room.

The Royal Room

Zelius seemed to be over his depression attack and now was back to his old happy self. (A.n, It's thanks to his magical feathers. They help him stabilize both mentally and physically a lot faster than anyone. )

"Welcome to the Royal room !" Zelius shouted when everyone entered. They all looked around but all that they saw was pictures of him, his parents and his brother Albert. There also there was a genealogical tree painted on one of the walls under the picture of his parents. "Dude there is nothing here." Deuce stated. "That's what we want you to think." Zelius said and walked up to the wall with his picture on it. He pressed his hand to the wall and a voice was heard. "Zelius Dark entry sequel began." Then he leaned to the wall and slide of his glasses to allow a special machine to scan his eyes. "Test one passed." Said the same voice as before. Then a keyboard slide out of the wall. Zelius played a quick tune and the voice was heard again. "Test two passed." As the last test he had to break a number code which took him less than a minute and the voice was heard for the last time. "Test three passed. Entry allowed." Then the wall opened and slide in the opposite directions and everyone could see a room filled with crowns, swords and many other thing. "Wow." Deuce said. "I know now come on in." Zelius motion then to follow him inside. They did and sat down on the massive cushion that were on the floor. Zelius just asked Robecca to stay standing. And he himself walk up to one of the glass cabinets with the crowns opened it. "This is the only crown I like to wear. It's the very crown that I myself was coroneted a full prince with. After wards me and Edward were allowed to go outside since he felt a bit better that day. We had so much fun and this very crown made us laugh so much." Zelius smiled at the object. Then he disappeared behind a corner and appeared a minute later carrying a massive granite throne like chair. "Isn't that really heavy ?" Jackson asked. "No for me." Zelius answered and placed the chair in on the middle of the room. "Robecca my princess would you mind sitting here." He asked her and pointed at the chair. She just smiled and sat on it. Zelius smiled back at her and went back to the open cabinet. He took the crown out of it and held in both of his hands in the same manner a bishop would do it during real coronation. And he walked up to Robecca.

"Robecca Stem, draught of Hexiciah and Veronica Steam, The most loyal and truthful person I know and most importantly my girlfriend and the lady of my heart." He winked at her as he said the last part. " Here and now I Prince Zelius Alexander Hiashi Dark by the power passed on to me by the gods and my ancestors. Crown you the first princess of Japan of this generation !" He said proudly and gently placed the crown on her head. "May the faith always be on your side and good luck never leave you." He bowed at her in the traditional Japanese way. Robecca giggled at that and the others clapped.

A Few Minutes Later

"Wow that looked very real." Frankie commented. "Oh it was real." Zelius said with a smiled. "Oh come on stop joking will you." Cleo said. "I'm not joking I will fill out all of the needed papers tonight and send them to my uncle first thing in the morning." Zelius said in a very serious tone. "Wait you aren't kidding !" Neighthan shouted. " Of course I'm not. I was allowed to crown Robacca a princess since Tengu demons fall in love only once in their entire life." "Is that a promise of a marriage proposal ?" Robecca blushed and looked Zelius in the eyes. "And what do you think my princess ?" He asked. "Oh I love so much !" She shouted and hugged him very thigh. "I love you too my now as real as ever princess." He winked at her. The others were in shock. They just were the eye witnesses of a real princess coronation. Things like that don't happen too often. But in the end they were really happy for Robecca and Zelius. The first truly royal couple of Monster High.

I know this chapter was a bit weird and I'm sorry if I confused you a little but I'm the type of person that likes to end sadness with laughter. I hope that you liked it in the end. See you soon. P.s The next chapter will the last one.
