It has been 15 years since the adventure of Zidane, Garnet, and all of their old friends. Garnet and Zidane are now living as king and queen of Alexandria. They have finally settled down and had a boy named Astral Tribal. This is his story.
It was night at Alexandria castle, and only few guards were up because they were tired after keeping a keen eye on everyone at the annual airship show. There was a swift movement piercing the night that no one would even try to bother messing with even if they could catch because of the tiredness of everyone. The movement slipped past the guard doors, then through the castle's garden, and finally to the newly built castle gates. The strange movement crept slowly towards the reinforced gate door with a thieves lock pick out going for the lock. The lock finally unlocked after a few picks here and there, and the movement crept quietly out of the castle gate.
"Hold it right there!" , a familiar voice called out to him. Don't even bother going any further."
The swift movement came closer and closer to the person calling out. The swift movement turned out to be the prince with his short white hair, which no one knew why, black leather cape, big green eyes, with a crimson shirt, black pants, and two pistols that resembles Yuna's guns quite closely. The prince turned around.
"How do you always find me so easily?" Astral asked while shaking his head to Beatrix, the warrior known to show no mercy.
"It's easy, you tried to escape Monday the first week, Tuesday the second, Wednesday the third, and it is the fourth week and it's Thursday." Beatrix said, Come on, lets go back to your room.
Astral walked up the stairs as Beatrix followed closely behind to make sure that he didn't even try to make a move.
He finally got to his room, which was the room that Queen Garnet used to stay in after decorating. He opened the door and plopped on his bed with a huge sigh of anger and despair. Beatrix walked in quietly afterwards, for it was late at night, and asked, "What's so bad about this place? You have it made in the shade." Beatrix asked with her left hand on her head shaking it.
Astral got up off his silky, dark red bed and went to the window to look out through the dark night.
"This place.............. is so boring. The only things I do is sit in chariots and wave at people that I don't even know, I go to fancy dinners with people that are a zillion times my age, I always have a feeling that something's being kept from me, and I can't go outside of the castle and talk to my friends." Astral said still looking out the window.
"What friends?" Beatrix said puzzled.
"My point exactly. " Astral said in a very low voice.
"I am sorry, your majesty." Beatrix said knowing she messed up.
"It's fine, it wasn't your fault." Astral said.
"Well, why don't you ask your parent to kind of layoff for a while and let you walk about outside of the castle." Beatrix said even knowing that his parents would deny his request.
"......I'll think about it, but you and I both know that they won't accept my request." he said while walking slowly to his bed sighing.
"Alright , goodnight." Beatrix said while shutting the door because he was already asleep.
The next morning, Astral woke up early before most guards were to be on duty. He got dressed and ran to his table in the corner and opened the drawer to take out a falcon's feather and some red ink. He finished the letter he was intending to write, and pinned it outside of his door with the golden dagger his Great Uncle Cid gave him for his 11th birthday. He ran out the door knowing he would make it for Beatrix wasn't on duty until half an hour later.
The king and queen woke up earlier than usual, got dressed and proceeded to their thrones. Beartix went to go and greet the King Zidane and Queen Garnet on the beautiful day even though it was a darker and gloomier day than usual.
"Good morning your majesties. " Beatrix said trying to sound nice, but it was hard because she was tired for catching Astral last night. She decided to go ahead and wake up Astral, but she found the note on the door he wrote earlier this morning. She quickly skimmed over the note, and ran to tell the king and queen.
"Your majesties, there is an emergency!" Beatrix said running and giving the king the note. The king read the note out loud to his beloved wife.
Dear parents....and Beatrix,
Please, Please forgive me, but I won't be home for a while.This place is too luxurious for me. I wish for an
Adventure . I hope that my travels will lead me to or near you. Best and loving wishes.
Your loving son,
Astral Tribal
The Queen gasped while putting her hands with silver, silk gloves over her mouth. The King crumbled up the paper and threw it on the red carpet.
"Beatrix, I need you to go and try to get our son back, please." The King said grasping his wife's hand.
"Yes!" Beatrix said doing that hand position that she did to Queen Garnet's mother.
Beatrix ran towards the new airship station they installed 10 years ago and boarded the Red Rose, which was awarded to her as the best warrior in all of Alexandria. She went down to the pilot's room and told him
"Gaia's Evil Forest."
"Aiya, Aiya, Captain!" the pilot responded. He flipped the switches and all the rudders and engines came on, and off Beatrix went.
"I am going to find you Astral." Beatrix said in a sad and depressed voice.
The airship rose above the clouds and sped off to the deadly forest. She was sure that that was the first place he would go for that was the first place that Garnet went to after her escape. Beatrix sat in the royal chair, crossed her legs, and swished her hair back that was in her face with her hand.
