Chapter 18- Next In Line

Back at Umbrella's Shelter...

Umbrella was in the command tent, tears welling in her eyes, but she did not say a word, she wiped her eyes as she read Peacock's message out loud:

Dear Umbrella,

Kid, i'm sorry that i have to be the one to tell you this but, Parasoul's dead.

She fell victim to Skullborn virus, now i know what yer' thinking, "why the hell did she not take the cure?"

Well, we only had three vials and she wanted to save at least one to mass produce, at least you can take comfort in knowing she didn't suffer long.

But hey! don't cry! you're a queen now, and you're young, you won't make the same mistakes your mom made, i know you can make this stinking world a better place, and if you ever need help, we're here for ya.

Warm Regards,
Patrica "Peacock" Wattson.

Umbrella wiped her eyes again, Peacock was right, now was not the time for tears, if Fillia and the others made it to the kingdom, it's time to do damage control!

Five of the remaining members of the Black Egrets as well as Big Band stood up and looked at the new queen.

"Big Band, Please tell everyone to pack up, we're heading to the Canopy Kingdom, Fillia and the others will need all the help they can get!" she spoke.

Big Band nodded and went to inform the others, she then turned her attention to the remaining Black Egrets, "Please inform Beowulf's Shelter to pack up and head twords the Canopy Kingdom, Filla and the others are going to need a army!" she asked.

The soldiers nodded and were on their way, one of them silently saying, "Spoken like a true Queen..."
