Surprise Visitors at the castle and an unexpected moment

Lauren's P.O.V.:

Since the masquerade ball yesterday, everything in the castle was getting back to normal and we couldn't thank the national guardsmen enough for coming out to help. I'm just glad Jett realized the wrongdoing of his actions. As for him, you may ask or wonder well, we did have to give him community service but he didn't seem to mind just obeying us which I have to admit was kind of a surprise. I was sitting on my throne in the Great Hall with my friends going through a council meeting.

"Have we received any updates from Archenland, my lord," I asked one of the nobles. "We have my queen, I am very pleased to announce and report that the threat of the giants is over, they made peace," Lord Kyle told us. "Very good, my lord anything else gentlemen," James asked. "No, not now your majesty, though we did get a letter from King Raymond," Lord Kyle told us. If you are interested look back on some of the chapters of our time in Terabithia where we helped the true heir to the throne meaning Raymond. "Oh how is he doing," Logan asked. "He's doing really well and sends his wishes to Kendall and Josephine," he told us.

I forgot to mention that Jo is living in the castle now ever since the incident and honestly I don't blame her. She has become more of a big sister to me like Jess when I lived in Brooklyn and I couldn't be happier for Jo. Jo would always come into my room for a sleepover and I love her so much. I hope Kendall proposes to her soon if not, I am going to give him a piece of my mind. My servant Willow soon came into the Great Hall and curtsied to us. "Willow, is everything okay," I asked her. "Everything is fine Your Majesty, but I bring a message for you and Jayden," she told us. "Wait us," we asked. "Of course, Jayden a friend of yours named Mia is here to see you along with your uncle," she told us. "Uncle Ji is here," I asked standing from my throne.

"Wait, whose Uncle Ji," Logan asked. The guys hadn't met my uncle yet and you know who I'm talking about Mentor Ji, mentor to the samurai rangers in 2012. Well, that's my uncle. "Where are they," I asked. "Their in the vestibule near the hall, I told them you were busy with council and they said it's worth waiting to speak with you," she told me. "Okay then, if you want to let them know they can come in now, that would be great," I told Willow. "Of course, my queen I'll go let them know," she told us and soon left.

"Thank you for coming gentlemen, council is adjourned," Kendall told the lords. They bowed at us and soon left. "I can't believe I'm meeting a member of your family Lauren. This is so exciting," Logan told me with a smile. "It sure is. I hadn't had a full on conversation with uncle Ji since after the coronation. I did miss that portion of my family including Jayden," I said looking at my brother. "For sure Lauren, and when are you going to tell uncle you and Logan are dating," Jayden asked.

"I was hoping to tell him later on but after we met I wrote to my uncle some letters about you guys. He replied saying their destiny in life is entwined in mine," I told him. "Sure he did," Logan replied kissing my cheek. "Your uncle sounds like a great guy Lauren. We can't wait to meet him," James told me. "Thanks James. You too guys," I told them with a smile.

Logan's P.O.V.:

"Presenting Miss Amelia Cameron Wantanbe and Mr. Rene Mentor Ji," an announcer announced to us as we stood up from our thrones. "Ready," I whispered to Lauren. "You bet," she whispered back with a smile.

The doors soon opened and I saw two people walk in. The girl I saw had an olive color skin tone with black hair, brown eyes and youthful pink lips. She wore a knee length pink dress with the symbol of cherry blossoms on the skirt and a symbol of the family crest for the Shiba house on the lapel of her dress to add a touch of gold. The man walking in next to her had a similar skin tone as her and wore traditional Japanese robes. His hair look a little bit gray unlike the girl next to him. They both approached the steps to the thrones and soon bowed or curtsied before us.

"Your Majesties," they told us. "Uncle Ji," Lauren greeted the man with a smile. "Lauren, my niece I missed you, come here and give uncle a hug," he smiled at Lauren. She went down the steps and hugged her uncle then kissed his cheek. "It's so good to see you uncle Ji," she told him. "It's good to see you as well, my little blossom," he told her. Mia," Jayden greeted then walked from where he was standing and hugged her. "Hi Jayden," she said kissing him. "Hi babe good to see you," he replied. "Jayden, you never told me you were dating Mia," Lauren told him.

"Well, now you know guys," Jayden smiled. "Now we do for sure," James muttered. I chuckled. I feel so nervous about meeting the mentor to the samurai rangers and him being Lauren's uncle. So, I took a deep breath and came down the steps from the thrones to where Lauren was. "Uncle, I like you to meet Logan Mitchell, I mean King Logan the Angelic my boyfriend. Logan this is my uncle," Lauren introduced me to him.

Lauren's P.O.V.:

"It's a pleasure to meet you, mentor Ji. Lauren has told me a lot about you," Logan told him. "The pleasure is mine King Logan, my niece speaks highly of you in her letters," he replied. "She did," Logan asked looking at me. "I may have spilled the beans to him that I have a crush on you," I admitted. "It's true," Ji told him. "I have to admit I am surprised," Logan chuckled and hugged me. I soon turned to Mia. "Mia, it's so good to see you and finally meet you for the first time," I squealed. "It's my pleasure your majesty," she replied. "Oh no need to be formal you can call me Lauren," I told her.

"Oh thanks Lauren. Jayden can't stop raving about you to me. Since we wrote letters he sent me pictures including the one where you three and wearing your winter hat and gloves inside," she told me. "Jayden," I said looking at him. He chuckled along with James, Carlos and Kendall but Logan included. "I told you not to send that picture," I groaned. "Sorry thought it was cute," he admitted. I shrugged and shook it off.

"Uncle, Mia these are the rest of my friends King Carlos, High King Kendall and King James," I told my uncle as the others walked down the steps. "It's a pleasure to meet you sir," Kendall greeted with a smile and handshake. "It's an honor to meet you your majesty. I mean Kendall," he told him. "No need mentor so Lauren was telling us you were the mentor to Samurai Power Rangers," Carlos asked.

"Why yes Carlos I was. Lauren's brother was leader at the time and I was his guardian technically for the time being," he explained. "But how come Lauren never saw you guys," James asked. "It was s way to keep her destiny perfect and Jayden would one day reunite with her and I think it worked," he explained. "I see. It must be nice seeing your niece again," Kendall told him. "It sure is and I'm sure Mia does to. Since she may get married to Jayden one day," Ji replied. "Any bets yet," I whispered to Logan. "Nope," he replied. "So, this is amazing you're here uncle and you too Mia. I wanted to see you guys for so long," I told them. "Indeed we have Lauren, by the way we got a coronation present for all of you," Ji told us.

"You do," I asked. "I sure do, Mia can you get the present," he told her. She smiled and came back with the gift covered in a sheet. "Your Majesties and Jayden I present to you my coronation gift," Ji told us while Mia removed the cloth to show a magnificent tapestry completed with pictures of our journey to fulfilling the prophecy. We were all amazed at the beauty of the artwork. "Did you do this Ji," Kendall asked looking amazed. "I did but I got some help with the rangers as well," he told us. "Wow, uncle this is amazing. We love the gift thank you," I said hugging my uncle. "My pleasure Lauren," he told me. "Before we continue on our conversation, can we get you guys anything to drink," Carlos asked. "No not necessary Carlos but thank you," Mia told him. "Um Lauren can I say something in front of Mia and you guys," Jayden asked me. "Sure," I replied.

Ji's P.O.V.:

I knew what Jayden was going to do in front of his sister and his friends. He was going to ask Mia to move in with him at the castle. I couldn't believe this was finally happening to him. I knew their romance blossomed from the moment they met to now even when he was encased in stone for quite some time but Mia still loved him. I knew it was true love. "Mia, I know this is going to be crazy to say but I fell in love with you from the first moment we met all those months ago and now look where we are standing in front of our friends even new ones now, I can't believe how far we came from the day as rangers and now I really love you so much," Jayden told her.

"What are you saying Jayden, I don't get it," Mia asked. "What I'm trying to say is, I want to spend the rest of my life with you," he answered.

Lauren's P.O.V.:

I gasped and so did the others including Jo who walked in at the perfect timing to see this unfold as Jayden smiled. "Mia, we've been going out for quite some time now and I'm ready to be with you forever. So, Mia will you move in with me," he asked her. Mia smiled and I couldn't believe this happened right in front of my eyes. "Of course Jayden, I would love to move in with you," she whispered and soon hugged my brother. "Yes," we cheered as they kissed. "Congrats Jay," Logan hugged him. "Thanks guys. This is going to be fun," he said happily. "Yeah wait till Hector hears about it," I smiled.

"He'll be surprised, that's for sure," Jo added. "Uncle may I present to you Lady Josephine Elizabeth Taylor, girlfriend to King Kendall," I introduced Jo to my uncle and Mia. "My lady," he bowed and Mia curtsied. "An honor to meet you all. Lauren has told me a lot about you," Jo told my uncle and Mia. "A pleasure Jo, we are so excited to meet you," Mia told her with a smile. "Indeed, but I'm afraid I haveto cut this short," Ji told us. "You're leaving now uncle but we just saw you why," I asked. "Because the Shiba house has a new protector," he told us.

"Kevin," Jayden asked. "Yes and I miss the family so I am going to see them," he told me. "Well, I can't blame you with that uncle but promise me and Jayden one thing," I said to him. "Anything for my niece," he told me. "You'll say hi to mom, dad, Hector and Jess for us," I asked. "Will do Lauren. I love you," he told me. "I love you Uncle Ji," I answered hugging him with a smile on my lips. "It's been a pleasure meeting you, your majesties I can't wait to see what new adventures lie ahead for you," Ji told my friends and boyfriend. "The pleasure was all ours mentor, and you too Mia. Were excited to have you in the palace," Kendall told her. "Thank you Kendall," she grinned. "Yes! I get two other girls in the castle," I squealed out in joy. Everyone laughed in delight and I had to chuckle on that. I was so excited to get another girl that is dating my brother and I could not be more proud. I looked at Logan with a smile and I knew the chances we had were amazing.

There it is! Logan meets one of Lauren's family members including Jayden which I have to admit is impressive. I will be writing more on this story soon, again please bear with me and enjoy for now!
