Took so long, I didn't know how to end it. This story will be a challenge for me. There will be no different Point of Views like my other story. Maybe it'll be good. Hopefully it will be. Review!!
Again the young women stood outside the door of the mansion. Only this time they knew their purpose and they knew what would happen once they were inside. No longer did they fear the people inside, nor were they nervous about the situation. They were confident or at least one of them was. Although she is now accepted as the lost grandaughter of the leader of the Sanc Kingdom, Hilde would not let Relena stay alone with these people. She believed in her country but she did not confide in people very easily, much less people she had barely met and were not well spoken of.
The Sanc Kingdom has been in turmoil since the assassination of the king and queen, who were great and fair rulers. After their burial a power struggle ensued. Many leaders from other countries insisted on taking over a country without a ruler, but yet Mrs. Peacecraft, a widow of long ago, took control of the country. She was old and feeble but she would rule until a suitable successor was found. Many believed that successor to be Milliardo, the son of the king, but he did not rule. It is custom that a ruler will not receive the crown until he has found a wife and is wed. Since this prince would not find a wife for himself he would not take the crown.
Again the aged butler opened the door and beckoned them inside. Both women stepped in and were immediately greeted by an elderly lady who indeed was Mrs. Peacecraft. She took them both in a hug and shed tears upon their meeting once again. Both women felt odd hugging this woman, whom they only met yesterday but let her have the pleasure of of hugging them.
"Come in. Please. I want to tell you both something." Mrs. Peacecraft said releasing them both from the hug. She grabbed their hands and led them to a chair. Relean who did not see what Mrs. Peacecraft said was very confused. Hilde and Relena sat down, Mrs. Peacecraft sat in front of them both. To Relena she spoke very slowly. "I want you to stay here with me at the mansion." Relena's smile grew wider with each word Mrs. Peacecraft said while Hilde's grew less.
"No! She can't." Hilde shouted immediately. She did not trust these people. Relena would not be safe with them.
"I believe that decision belongs to Relena, not you." Mrs. Peacecraft said. She was determined to have her grandaughter very near to her, since she was gone for so many years.
"Relena wouldn't be safe here." Hilde said arguing with her. She immediately covered her mouth after speaking. She was arguing with the Queen of the Sanc Kingdom. What was she thinking? She looked up at Mrs. Peacecraft who didn't seem at all offended by her outburst. She bowed her head to show her respect. "I'm so sorry Mrs. Peacecraft. I did not mean to offend you or anyone." Hilde said.
"My dear, we live in a free country. You are free to express your opinion but I must disagree with you. This house is perfectly safe." Mrs. Peacecraft said calmly. Hilde sat back down but now she kept her hands on her lap and did not speak. "Relena," She said to the girl who looked only at the space next to her but turned to look at her. "will you stay here at the mansion with us?" Mrs. Peacecraft said. Relena looked at Hilde for her advice. She answered Relena with hand movements.
(This is your decision. You need to make it.)
(Help me Hilde, I don't know what to do.)
(Do what your heart tells you.)
Relena lifted her arms in frustration. Hilde would be of no help to her. She wanted Relena to make her own decision. But Relena was unsure about this whole thing. She was happy to be the grandaughter of a grandma but was it worth it? Should she abandon her life to live with the family she never had? Could she? Would it be worth it? No, she thought to herself. She stopped being pessemistic and began to think of all the wonderful things she could learn here. What her mother and father were like. She could find her brother. Find out more about the family she lost. There is more to gain than to lose. She would take her chances with the mansion. Maybe her life will improve with this change.
Relena nodded her head. Mrs. Peacecraft was estatic. She hugged Relena tightly even more so than when she had arrived. "Welcome to your home." She said while still hugging Relena, so she didn't know what Mrs. Peacecraft had said. She released Relena of her hug and took her hand. Mrs. Peacecraft led Relena to another room. Hilde followed. There in a chair sat the man who accused Relena of being a fraud. He took her necklace and said it was forgery. Milliardo looked up at his grandmother confused. He thought she had gotten rid of the intruder.
"What is that woman doing here?" He said looking at Relena with hatred in his eyes. Why was this woman intruding in their lives?
"She is Relena. And she is my grandaughter." Mrs. Peacecraft said to him. Mrs. Peacecraft smiled. Relena did too.
"What proof do you have?" He said still more accusingly. He stood up from his seat.
"She has my blood, there's no other proof I need." Mrs. Peacecraft said to Milliardo. "If you don't accept it, Milliardo that is your problem. She is going to stay here."
