Rose was in Violets room, with the three generals who stayed behind. Fangtom, Skalidor, and Acidicus were talking to Rose, with hearts in their eyes. Violet was listening, trying not to laugh at the generals who were obsessing over the female.
"So Fangtom, how did you get that second head?" Rose asked.
"I accidentally bit myself. It was a, tragic, story." Fangtom answered, trying to sound cool.
"Well I was locked up in a tomb. What's more tragic than that!" Skalidor said.
"Skalidor, we were all locked up in a tomb." Acidicus pointed out. Violet and Rose couldn't help it but laugh. Skalidor then blushed, embarrassed infront of the laughing females.
"Don't feel embarrass. Snakes say stupid things from time to time." Rose said. Skalidor then smiled.
"So Rose, you've been in the city for a while. What's you're favorite thing about it?" Acidicus asked.
"I'll say all the snakes who lived here." Rose answered.
"Do you have a favorite snake?" Fangtom asked. Rose blushed, she didn't know what to say.
"I do, but I preferred not to say." She answered.
"Is it one of us?" Skalidor asked. Rose had an answer, but if she tells them, it might break their hearts.
"Well-"
Suddenly the doors flung opened showing Fangdam, Fangtom's brother.
"Generals-and ladies, King Pythor have-returned to the city with the-fourth fangblade." He said, out of breath.
"Pythor's back!" Rose said excitedly as she quickly slithered out of the room, obviously to see Pythor.
"Wait, that means Skales is back too!" Violet said, as she slithered out the room, like her friend did.
When Rose finally got to Pythor, she jumped up and hugged him, who nearly fell.
"Rose, what are you doing!" He asked.
"Just hugging my king." She answered.
"While I'm holding a deadly blade!" Pythor said.
"Yah, when I really think about it, I can see the stupidity in it more clearly." She said. Rose and Pythor both chuckled. Rose then smiled and kissed Pythor's cheek. What she didn't realized is that the three generals witnessed it, all of their hearts breaking.
