Makaia Nagola
Warrior Princess of Kabasa
Many greetings to you all, my name is Princess Makaia Zaide Nagola, daughter of King Nagola of Planet Kabasa. I am 16 years old with straight black hair that reaches my shoulders and as my mother, Queen Kangela, would say, I have blue eyes that rival the beauty and majesty of the sky. My eyes are blue, but I think my mother is just saying that because I am her only daughter. Planet Kabasa has always been a peaceful place, beautiful blue skies and precious violet streams. Although it is considered dishonorable for a woman to fight, I have been pardoned and have taken up my sword, considering the condition our prized planet is in. A few months ago an uncompromising race called the Saiyens have started war with our people. They plan to mercilessly slaughter every living thing on Kabasa and make the planet marketable for sale. I am frightened by these people, although I always make sure I place a brave mask on my face, with 21 older brothers I do not want to be the weak link. But, I also am happy, with the prospect of war I am able to train freely with my brothers. I am and shall always be a warrior, or at least that is what the three wise men of the palace have always told me.
I am getting off track, my adventure I choose to share with you, it is my life adventure, and through it I faced tragedy, hope, heartbreak and romance. I hope you enjoy my story.
Chapter One: Midnight Massacre
"Makaia, please wake up, you must hurry!" I slowly open my eyes to see a large face starring at me. I opened my mouth to scream but a hand covered it before I could.
"Shhh, it is us." My eyes adjusted in the darkness and I saw Bejei, one of the palace wise men at my bedside, with the others, Geti and Sharte.
"What are you doing here?" I demanded in a harsh whisper, careful not to alert the guards posted outside my door.
"We had a vision, the demon race is about to attack." Bejei explained in a calm voice.
"We alerted your mother, father and brothers and they are preparing for the attack now." Geti continued.
"Then I must take my sword, Teyhei, and stand by my brothers side." I reached for Teyhei at my bedside but Sharte stopped me.
"Your parents have ordered us to take you somewhere safe, they do not want you out on the battlefield tonight." I jumped out of bed, angered by my families decision.
"It's because I am a woman isn't it?!" I stormed, Bejei held his hand for me to be still.
"No, it is because, you are a wise warrior, a wise warrior is rare these days, always thinking while the others are rushing into battle, just as bloodthirsty as our adversary. You are not someone the royal family can do without." I clenched my fists in anger, how I hated it when Bejei could manipulate me to do as my father pleased. I had always thought he should go into politics.
"You agree with me, so dress and set a quick pace, we must leave as soon as possible."
"Of course." I climbed out of bed, out of respect, and for which I am grateful, they turned their backs. I dressed in my warriors outfit. Violet spandex that clings to my body, making it easy to move around. A chest plate, smaller and less bulky than regulars, and shaped to fit my 'ahem' generous curves. And finally, small blue boots and gloves.
"I am finished." I announced, they turned and chuckled,
"We should've guessed, you are bringing Teyhei?"
"Of course." I strapped Teyhei across my back and was surprised when a small secret passage opened in my wall.
"Hurry inside." I did as they commanded, I stopped down the tunnel and waited.
"We are to old to travel, you must go alone, farewell Makaia." Before I could even utter a response the wall slammed shut.
"No!" I yelled, I pounded hard on the door, it didn't budge. I sank to my knees, tears formed. I was alone.
"BOOM!" A huge explosion rocketed the small dirt tunnel I was in I screamed. Okay, I admit it, I am very claustrophobic, what if the tunnel caved in, I admit to you again, to prospect of being crushed, sustaining many broken bones and bruises, then slowly suffocating to death doesn't really appeal to me. If it does to you you're insane, but you also have some big hairy gonads, I'll give ya that.
The explosions didn't stop, in fact they got progressively worse, so I ran. In my entire life I have never been so scared, scared for my friends, my family, my planet, the damn tunnel collapsing. I ran farther into the tunnel, and as I did it got bigger, eventually becoming surrounded by concrete. Thank the Gods!
I came to a big round room, of course after about an hour of sprinting as expected I collapsed. By now the constant explosions were nothing but a slight vibration. Soon enough the painful pounding in my chest stopped, and sleep overtook me. Try as I might, I couldn't fight it.
Chapter Two: A lonely Aftermath
When I awoke, my limbs ached, I looked around slightly disorientated. Then I remembered what had happened. I jumped up, feeling very nervous, but worried for my friends and family, I set a quick pace for the other end of the tunnel. The journey wasn't nearly as long as I thought the first time, that'll teach me to go into hysterics. I made it to the door, instead of being dark like before, small lights illuminated the tunnel. I could see a small switch, I held my breath, what if I was worried over nothing? What if my family was waiting for me on the other side of the door? I pulled the switch, the door opened, but instead of seeing my lavishly decorated room, I saw daylight. The palace had been destroyed beyond repair. I squinted as I climbed out, I felt tears of sorrow and anger silently roll down my cheeks. My family had been fighting for their lives while I slept. They were dead, they were all dead.
The reality of it struck me in the face like someone had punched me.
My brothers that had watched over me as I grew, who trained me.Dead. My mother and father who gave me life.Dead. Bejei, Geti, and Sharte, those who had guided me on the path of wisdom.All Dead.
I fell to my knees and my stomach heaved, my eyes and my throat burned. Suddenly a light went on in my head, what if they were still alive? What if there were surviviors?!
