Thank you all for reviewing. We get some new faces. :) I know I should type out all your names, but I shouldn't cliff-hang you anymore. So, here comes the second last chapter!

= 22. Confession =

Trust carefully tied up Riff Raff and Magenta, and then he used some smelling salt to wake them up.

"What happened? The last thing I remember was you zapped me. Was I dreaming?" Riff Raff said. At the same moment, he noticed he was tied up.

"Trust, why did you tie us up? Are you with those attacker? I trusted you," said Riff Raff, "And for moon's sake, why did you shoot Magenta? She is pregnant!"

"Oh, you are with child, congratulation!" said Trust, "Don't worry, the instruction sheet says the shock gun is child-proof, so I assume it won't hurt the child."

Riff Raff and Magenta did't know what to say about Trust's stupidity.

"Child-proof means when a child plays with it, it won't accidentally shoot the child... It doesn't mean shooting a pregnant woman is okay," Riff Raff explained. Trust stuck his tongue out.

"We trusted you. Why did you shoot us?" Magenta asked.

"Your mama never told you, never trust a man who appears at the right time in the right place?" Trust asked, "Besides, I didn't tell you two to come on the ship."

Magenta and Riff Raff looked at each other.

Trust continued, "King Eros got a letter from DeLordy and now he thinks you two killed Prince Frank, so he sent six of his best assassins to capture and kill you. He will send more assassins if he doesn't see you tonight. He wants to see you two, dead or alive. You are lucky I got to you first and you are even luckier that I am his right hand man. I will help you."

"Why are you helping us?" Magenta asked.

"I like you..." Trust said to Riff Raff.

"Oh my god, I was always right. You two have slept together," Magenta said.

"No Magenta, how many times do I have to tell you? I never slept with him. You like me?" Riff Raff said, "Hell no, I am not gay! Or even bisexual."

"Not that kind of like... I mean you are my best buddy," said Trust.

"You don't 'love'-love Riff Raff?" Magenta asked.

"No, I don't have feeling for Riff Raff," said Trust, "Or do I?"

Riff Raff stared at him with hate. Come on, Magenta is right beside me!

"Nope, just kidding," said Trust.

"Well, maybe I am serious..." Two seconds later, he said, "-ly kidding." No one, but Trust himself, laughed at the joke.

Trust put his serious face on and started explaining his his plan, "So, here's the plan. When you see the King, you just tell the truth, decline everything and say you didn't murder Prince Frank."

Riff Raff looked to the floor and didn't say anything. Trust quickly realized something was wrong.

"You didn't kill the prince, did you?" Trust asked.

Magenta looked at Riff Raff and looked at Trust, "We did. We killed Frank."

"Why would you do a stupid thing like that? King Eros and his Queen didn't have any child... Frank was the heir to both the Transsexual throne and the Transparent throne," Trust yelled at Riff Raff.

"He killed my child," said Riff Raff, "How could I live with myself if I let him stay alive?"

Trust heard what Riff Raff just said and he calm down, "I am so sorry, man. So, what are we going to do? Let's runaway to a distant planet."

"No, I will face the king and tell him what happen," said Riff Raff, "I won't let him hurt Magenta or my child. If anything happens to me, take good care of Magenta for me. Please."

"No worries, I won't let anything bad happens to you two," Trust sat down between Magenta and Riff Raff and he wrapped his arms around their shoulders.

Trust brought the siblings into the Transparent Palace ballroom and "forced" them to kneel down on the floor. Their mouths were covered with duct tape, so they couldn't talk or yell at the king. Eros waved his hand once and Trust walked out of the room. He smiled at Riff Raff and closed the door.

"So, you two killed my little Frank?" Eros asked and walked towards Riff Raff and Magenta. Eros and Anteros actually looked like each other very much. Eros was more muscular. He looked like a man with power. Well, not only looked like one, he was actually a man with power, indicated by his clean-shaved head. Anteros was a stay-home dad with black long hair.

Riff Raff nodded his head.

"Thank you for being so honest with me," Eros smiled, "I will let your death be less painful." He rubbed his hands together and was ready to strangle Riff Raff. Nothing felt better than choking his enemy with his own bare hands.

Suddenly the door slammed open and headlight of a space shuttle shined into the room. In front of the light, there was a dark shadow. The shadow was belong our Queen DeAnna. She walked into the ballroom.

"We finally meet again, DeAnna," said Eros, as DeAnna entered the empty room, "I haven't talked to you personally since Anteros's funeral." There were only four people in the room – King Eros, Queen DeAnna, Magenta and Riff Raff.

DeAnna looked around the room and asked, "Where are Indira and Himeros?"

Eros said coldly, "They were executed a few years back. They were cheating on me when I was on my trip to Intersexual. When I came back, opened the door, I caught them making sins on MY bed together. I killed them with my bare hands. Have you ever witnessed someone you hated died, right in front of you? They stopped breathing while your hands were suffocating them? The feeling of their slowed-down heartbeat? I choked them with my own hand and then I cut off his most precious body part and shoved it in his mouth."

"Ha," DeAnna laughed sarcastically, "Executed? Cheating? What about us?"

"Don't act like you are better than me," said Eros. He had lost his mind, "Don't lie to me. I know the truth. I know you killed my dearest youngest brother, too."

"You don't know the whole truth. It was an accident," DeAnna defended herself, "He tried to kill me and he ran into my knife. It was self defense."

Eros laughed hysterically, "Accident? Ha… ha… ha…"

He stopped laughed and gazed at DeAnna, "I guess I am going to have my little accident today. I will accidentally kill this maid and this handyman." He pointed to their direction.

"You can kill me, but I won't let you hurt Magenta," Riff Raff stood up, ripped the tape off his mouth and pointed his anti-matter gun at Eros. Trust lose Riff Raff's tie and gave him his gun before bringing them to the ballroom.

"Riff Raff, put down your gun. I know you are not a murderer," said DeAnna. Riff Raff took his finger off the trigger and pointed the gun at the floor.

DeAnna shouted, "You cannot kill Magenta! She is the only legal heir of Transsexual and Transparent."

"Heir? What are you talking about? The only heir was Frank!" Eros asked confusedly.

"She is my daughter!" DeAnna replied.

Eros repeated after DeAnna, "Your daughter?" Could she be my...

It's time for the moment of truth. "She is OUR daughter!" she screamed.
