Chapter 21 - Being dragged to Aroura
"What should we do your majesties?" The guard asked
"Leave it to me." Yenea jumped over the balcony, landing on her feet, the crowd and Logan watched her. She clearly showed the strength once shown by the last great hero queen herself.
"wait for me Yenea!" Rowana went to jump over too.
"Don't you here, you'll be safer here." Yenea looked up at her.
"How are you going to stop me? " Rowana glared at her
"Chicky, if she tries to leave, peck her. See you in a bit! I won't be long, promise! " Yenea raced off
"When she gets back, I am going to kill her." Rowana sighed, she looked down at Logan, he looked worried. Rowana shared those feelings.
Yenea raced though town, those who had not gone to hear Logan's speech, whispered how Yenea resembled the dead queen. Yenea stopped, she had forgot which way it was from Bowerstone to Industrial.
"Excuse me" Yenea called to a woman with her child.
" Yes... Oh my, you do look like Old Queen Sparrow... May she rest in peace." The woman said
"Well, I am her daughter, but that's not the point. Yenea said "Which way is it to Industrial?"
"That way, Avo bless you Princess." The woman smiled, Yenea nodded, and raced off.
Yenea was not sure how she made it to the docks in her extravagant dress, but she did, she saw Benjamin.
"Finn!" Yenea yelled, he looked.
"Great you're alive. Come with us." Ben grabbed her hand before she could say anything, he dragged her onto a ship. Walter hugged her as the ship set off. Yenea pulled away, she watched the dock get farther away.
"Yenea, where's Rowena?" Walter asked
"Waiting for me back at the castle. Today is the day Logan was abdicating the throne, giving the rule of the kingdom to us." She looked at him. "So, basically you kidnapped the when."
"Why didn't yo say anything?" Ben asked
"I never got a chance, you dragged me on board before I got a chance to say a word." Yenea said
"Ah, sorry, we should turn back." Walter looked at Yenea, then at Ben. Yenea looked towards the docks. Ships were after them.
"I don't think Reaver's ships will let us turn back."Yena said, glaring at the ships.
"What now?" Ben asked
"A royal visit to Aurora, I guess." Yenea looked towards the open sea. She glanced back at the ships. "I hope he isn't planning anything." The two men remained silent.
Several hours past, Yenea was pacing. The ships were still following, Reaver was up to something -she just knew it. Ben and Walter were playing cards. Yenea stopped, facing the opposing ships.
"Aren't you going to do something, or are you just stalking us?!" Yenea yelled, causing the men to jump. There was a large bang, and a canon ball headed their way. "Oh, sh..." The canon crashed into the ship before she could finish. The trio hit the cold water. Yenea struggled to the surface. She looked around, she couldn't see Ben or Walter. She clung onto a piece of drift wood. She let the waves carry her off
Rowana paced the study, Logan came in.
"Logan?" She asked, he hung his head. Chicky clucked sadly.
"Yenea's okay...I know it..." Rowana said, looking out of the windows at the darkening sky.
