To Elysion
Chapter 3
By Kulia Makani B.K.A Tamar

Disclaimer: Princess Gwenevere and the Jewel Riders do not belong to me, but the characters Jason, Cedrick, Franklin, Robert, Andy, and King Dereck do.

Through the damp, dreary halls four males sit comfortable in an old study. The soft amber glow from the
fire plays against their faces. While King Dereck talked with the Jewel Riders, the men were talking
among themselves.

Cedrick known as Rick or Earl of Wichberg leaned his long dark figure against the wood panel as he half
listened to the conversation between his friends. His violet eyes wonder toward the open window to
collect his though for the mission ahead of them. They must succeed and find all the jewels soon. The
wind played with his short wavy red hair, while he held up his Forest stone to the sky.
"Rick, What's wrong? You look to serious, which is not normal for you," Rick best friend Frank said,
"Just mentally preparing," Rick replied.

Franklin, Frank leaned against the opposite wall that Rick was leaning against. Rick and Frank have been
friends for fifteen years out of the twenty-two years of life. Frank was born half elf and human giving him
the ability to talk with animals long before he received his Earthstone. His long white waist length hair
covers his long pointed ears, while his stone hang around his neck. Hearing the sudden laughter from Andy
and Rob, he turned his amuse dark blue eyes toward them.
"Ha Hahaa, What did you say to her?" Andy said.
"Nothing, We can't all be a ladies man like Rick," Rob kidded.

Robert Lee Riley Jr. known as Rob sat comfortably on top of the wooden desk as he converse with Andy
His husky voice carried a regale sound. Rob's shoulder length green hair was tied at the nape and his light
blue eyes continue to look at Andy as he told the story about the girl. Andy and Rob have been inseparable
since they were born twenty-four years ago. Rob carried the Waterstone across his neck and Andy the
Windstone.
"Do you remember one of Rick previous girl? The one with the hair," Rob asked.
"Do you mean Lisa? That girl had problems and the main one was dating Rick," Andy said.
"Andy, he was talking about Jasmine. Unlike you gentlemen, I have no complains from my females
friends," Rick ejaculated.
"Yeah, they were happy to get rid of your sorry self,"
"I hear words of a jealous man. Frank and Rob are to shy for a girl. Andy, what can I say beside they want
you for your title and that is all. The only real challenge would be Jason. I still remember your disaster
with a girl name Laura."
"Let's get back to the point. You are to black for a girl. You are so black that they need a flashlight to see
you at night."
Rick placed his hand over his heart as he staggered back, "I'm wounded, but I will let that slide. What
would people say if the prince start crying because he can not back up, what he was putting out?"

Prince Andrew or Andy commanded the full view of his friends sitting by the desk on a chair. His navy
hair was pull behind his ears. Andy was the son of King Eric before he died, leaving his uncle to rule
Elysion in his place until he reach of age.
"I can put up, but can you take it," Andy amber eyes glared at Rick
"Gentlemen, I have arrive and present news that will shock and amaze you!" Jason walked into the room
and taken a free spot upon the desk.
"What is the news?" Frank asked.
"Prepare yourself, three females will be joining us to retrieve the jewels and that is not all. There could be
the possibility of a portal to Elysion to remain open for trade to begin."

Andy gripped the handle on the chair until his tan hand turned white. He was angry with his uncle decision
concerning the females and the situation with Elysion. Elysion has been hidden for thousands of years and
he refused to let a portal remain open. He ignored the conversation with his friends as he only though of
leaving and talk to his so call uncle.
"Excuse me," Andy bellowed, getting up from his chair and heading for the door, " I have to talk with King
Dereck." Andy left the room. His steps rang through out the long halls. Every step drove him closer to
madness and to the source. How could he make a deal with foreigners? How did a portal open in the first
place? His brain completely shut down, while his heart was pumping over time. This was his land, his
soul, and his heart.
"Dereck!" The door quiver with knock that Andy place on it, "We need to talk!"
"Come in!"
Andy opened the door to see his uncle standing by the marble fireplace in the room. His head in his hand
as he glazed in to the fire.
"You will address me as King Dereck, when you call me!" Dereck demanded from Andy, "I'm your uncle,
but I'm still king!"
"Only by my will."
Dereck turned from the fire to face Andy. A boy who thinks himself king. This spoil pamper boy have the
nerve to consider himself King. "Yes, you could have been king at the age of 21," Dereck said, "It was
your choice not to take the throne, which only show how weak and cowardly you really are. You come
here with the pretense of concern, but I know the real reason you are here. Hurry speak your mind before I
lose my temper."
"What right do you have to consider leaving a portal open the Elysion?"
"The right of a king! The Jewel Riders kindly volunteer to help if I consider rethinking my position.
Despite what you think of your merry men, you will need help to find the jewels."
"My merry men as you put it. Can do more then three measly females, who only know how to powder their
noses. We have no time to baby-sit three Jewel Riders."
"You have no choice in the matter. The Jewel Warriors will meet the Jewel Riders in the morning and
everyone will leave the next day. Do I make myself CLEAR?"
"Yeah, crystal clear."





Hi, this chapter was just to introduce you to the other characters in the story. Sorry this chapter is not long,
but if you want a long chapter then you will have to wait a month. I still have not officially ended chapter
