The device

This morning, Nanny found duke Eidan passably drunk in the dinning room. She had never liked the man, because each time he come to visit the king, Alfor was colder to his wife after that. Nanny had loved her queen very much. Without her she would have stay a servant to her deceased husband's family. Instead she had become the helper of the queen and after that Allura's nanny. And it had saddened Nanny to see her beloved queen to suffer so much. But she can't help but have a good heart and she can't let the duke in the state he is.

After his discovery, duke Eidan can't have stand the thought and he had drown his sorrow in a bottle. The next morning a major hangover had it him. Maybe it's the reason why he had open to the nanny about his doubt. To say that the woman was chocked is an understatement. Even himself would not have believe it if the commander don't looked so much as his uncle. The duke wondered for a minute if he was not wrong to share the news with the nanny, but her answer stunned him.

" I don't know if your are true, but it doesn't matter. The commander is a good man, he is not responsible for who is his father. I forbide you to tell this at any other leaving. Does I made myself very clear ?"

" Cristal." Was just what he can answered.

The five lions leaved Arus early this morning to go to planet Pollux. The father of Dr Soma had hided the device there. Sooner, Allura had call Romelle for asking permission to come to Pollux. It was the better way. Even if Ryou had now forgive the death of his brother. His relationship with Keith were not the happy one. They are co-workers, nothing more. So, there is the best way if they avoided each others as much as possible. Romelle was very happy to agree for her cousin and her friend to pay her a visit. Allura don't have talked about the device, because she was not sure if their conversation was not spied by Haggar.

When they landed to planet Pollux, Romelle run to hug her cousin. Even if they looked a much alike, Keith can't help but think that Allura is slightly prettier than her cousin. He smirked when he looked at Ryou face, no doubt that the man think the same way as him, but for Romelle in his case. Maybe this "vacation" would help them to put thing right for once. They both were so hurt by Sven death, that they don't have take time to discuss together. Maybe, the time had come to become friend.

Romelle had planed a lot of thing to entertain her cousin and her friend. Like planed, the next morning Keith, Dr Soma and surprisingly Ryou decided to take a walk outside of the castle. The three men leaved the palace at dawn and they began their journey. After a couple of hours, Ryou become impatient and he can't help but ask some question.

" Does we walk into nowhere, or does you have a plan in mind ?" He asked irritably.

" Patience. " Said Dr Soma. " We need to made sure that no one had follow us. Just a little more time, and we can go to retrieve the device."

" Which device ?" Asked Ryou.

" This is an object who is able to destroy Zarkon, or I have understand so." Explained Keith.

" That's not exactely true, but close enough. Now hush ! It's time to go to the device."

After that no one dare to say an other word. They walked for an other hours, and then they found themselves in the entrance of a cave. Resolutely, Dr Soma take the left side. Keith and Ryou shared a worried look, but they hurried to follow the good doctor. If it was not for the doctor, Keith had no doubt that they will be lost in the caves, they looked so much like a maze. But the doctor seem to know where he go, and Keith can't help but trust him.

They finally found themselves in front of a stone wall. Keith can't see what the doctor do but some door open in the wall. The doctor step inside and as soon as he had entered the door disappeared, letting Keith and Ryou alone. Keith knows that it's time for him to talk at open heart with Sven little brother. He was worried, but there is no other choice.

" I'm sorry." Began Keith.

" Sorry ? For what ?" Answered a puzzled Ryou.

" Because of Sven death. I'm sorry I can't have helped him."

" It's not your fault. I had take time to understand it, but now I see it. You have done what you can, that all what I have asked for."

" Thank you very much. You don't know what it means to me."

Before he can say more, Dr Soma had returned with a strange object in his hand. It looked like a cube with two eyes in the top. It reminded to Keith an earthian movie named "Wally" or something like this. The three of them leaved the cave and returned to the castle. None of them daring to tell a word. Dr Soma had hided the device in his clothes and he had order to the other to not touch the device. They all feel some hurry to return home.
