The Next Chapter

Part 6

By CrystalMagic

I still don't own anything…….damn.

Wow, 15 reviews! Im excited!

"Hello Sara. sorry to pop in on you ike this, but im afraid you have to come with me. now."

Sara saw her good friend CrystalMagic standing in front of her, but it wasn't her, she was older, more Regal. she also had a man on her arm, a man who looked a bit to much like an older version of Robert.

"Crystal? Is that you? You look different. Robert? What?" Sara stammered and started to stand "what's going on?"

"Sara, yes, this is your friend crystal, but I am not Robert" William spat out his brothers name like he would spit on it if he had it written down. "All will be explained to you in good time, but im afraid we must be off."

With that William produced a silver and gold swirled crystal, much like a marble.

*in chap. 3 I forgot to add the dragons, they because of there shire size no race would pick a fight with them, so they are a peaceful race that are master craftsmen, working largely with gold, silver, and platinum. The dragons govern themselves but they still have a royal family who are in fact Elvin. Don't ask why, it's a long and involved story with a bet and a golden flute…id rather not get into it now*

Sara looked to crystal who also had an orb in her hand, hers red and blue.

"those crystals, they look like, oh my god, CrystalMagic, it makes since now, your one of them aren't you? your from the underground" the moment the words drifted from Sara's lips, crystal and William both tossed there crystals at her feet, and the world faded around her.

(Back to Robert, Shrini, and Chris.)

"ok,, YOU'RE the prince of dragons?"

"for the last time Chris, yes! I have bin since my birth. I was born and raised by crystals parents, you know how I said Jereth and she are close? When we where young crystal was told to chose her partner. One man who she would most likely spend the rest of her life with." Robert paused, he looked almost as though if he couldn't go on speaking "he…." He looked at Shrini with pleading eyes

"Chris, crystal chose a list of 5 men," Shrini looked to Robert, who looked at him as though he was a saint, Robert nodded and Shrini went on "Robert, William, Jereth, myself, and a mortal. William was mad that he would be put on a list with a mortal, and that is what the whole hating crystal thing was about. He wanted crystals powers but he is vain and immediately refused to be one of crystals suitors for fear of being beaten by a mortal. It was a sad day for the dragon peoples, he went mad and tried to kill the other men she chose. We where moved to her estate where we would be safe from him, but one day the mortal, was found murdered in the gardens but we had no way to prove it was William. Crystal refused to speak with or of im from that day on, or until today as far as we knew. but I have digressed. After her mortal died, crystal shut herself in her chambers and didn't let a soul in to speak to her but Jereth, he was her life line. They became much closer and over the years that fallowed, she finally let Robert back into her life, thinking he couldn't be as horrid as his brother. Jereth stepped aside to let Robert become her friend once more but he kept his eye out for her. You know how they say there is one person out there for everyone? Well, sometimes there is more than one person. Crystal has One for friendship, and one for love. Jereth is crystals soul mate. And so is Robert" Robert blushed a bit and tr4yed to hide from the shocked Chris.

"you mean Jereth is the friend, and Robert is the love? I knew something was going on, why didn't you tell me??? " Chris ran over to pat Robert on the back, but Robert just backed away

"Chris only you, Shrini, Jereth, and Crystals parents and chamber maids know about me being Crystal's betrothed, or that im that im a prince. Only few people know im alive, im like a back up for my bother. If he is captured im his replacement. Kind of ironic isn't it? Well, I guess Sara will know soon, seeing as that's why William is here. To kidnap Sara."

"WHAT? HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?"

"she's standing behind you Chris."

Chris spun around and came face to face with Sara who seemed just as surprised as Chris did

"oh no! im back underground. Ha, I should of known you where in on this crystal, you two Robert." At that moment Sara noticed that there where two Roberts standing face to face, staring each other down.

*a/n HAHA, more stuff to confuse people! At this point, just be glad you have a new chapter…..oh, an Jereth will show up soon, I promise! Girl scouts honor!*
