Years have passed. She has gone from a small, lanky child to a woman of great beauty. Of course, due to puberty she had come to fill out in all the right places, quite well. Besides, that nothing else has changed about her. She still serves her majesties' with the upmost loyalty. She now has three more siblings. One a girl, making the other two boys. She has just reached the border of Fanelia. The sun is setting. Her companions join her a moment later. They would reach the castle after nightfall. For measure, her current companions have always been appointed to accompany her by the king, whenever she had to leave their kingdom. Even though, he knew she was more than capable of taking care of herself; it was his nature as a father that caused him to act as such. Having his childhood friends go with her made him more secure, for there were two more people he knew could handle themselves; being with her, gave the less chance of something happening to her slim.

She is on her way to discuss the negotiation to her king. He had sent her on a diplomatic assignment. She had been to Asturia, then Freid. When she went to Asturia, the royal family was of course, there except for the eldest child. Her parents had told her the story of Dryden and Millerna. As she thought, every time she visits them that she is happy they had managed to reconcile. When she would visit them growing up, she had play mates around her age. The eldest, Atlantis, is two years older than her. Pluto is her age. Pluto is the only girl. Uranus is three years younger than she and his sister. The king of Freid had been nothing but kind. He made it obvious that he is smitten with her. She had made a arrangement between Dryden, Millerna, and Chi'd that, they would arrive in Fanelia in a month's time to discuss improvement of the trading of goods, between Fanelia and the other two countries. It had also long been agreed that she is to marry Atlantis, from the time she was a child. It would become even more beneficial that their feelings of love would grow to be mutual. This however, would cause distance for him and his cousin who had fallen in love with her, when she had visited his country.

Upon entering the throne room, rather then being greeted by her king or queen. The sight before confuses her to say the least. Virgo is sitting in their father's chair. Venus is pretending to be a good subject and is bowing before him, practically kissing his feet. She is currently calling him 'majesty.' She didn't even want to think of what Leo and Neptune are doing. Although, it seriously looks like Leo is trying to kill their younger sibling in the form of strangulation. She is trying to take the scenes before her with a grain of salt, but evidentally they had been going on for a while. And if she didn't act now, she would be minus one brother.

Within the next moment, anger and frustration surges through her, causing her to lash out. Usually she isn't one to lose her temper, but it couldn't be helped in this case. "Alright, everyone shut up. Leo take your hands off Neptune's neck immediately." She hollers. "Now I want to know what is with your behavior and you all better have good explantions." " My sentiments exactly." They all turn to see their father. They all start talking at once. "Enough." He states clearly yet firmly. "And don't think I won't tell your mother, and don't think you all won't be doubly punished." "I haven't let you off the hook yet." She adds to her king's sentences. She bows before him. "Forgive me, your majesty." "Go find your mother now." "Zodiac, stay." Her brothers and sister take their leave, but not before Venus and Neptune come to hug her around the legs. The other two simply wave bye solemly. "We have yet to discuss your travel." "We will wait until your mother arrives, after having reprimanded them and deciding their punishments."

It wasn't long before her mother arrived. Upon sitting, Zodiac kneeled and bowed before them. "Come now, it is just the three of us." Zodiac took the invitation. As she reached, the queen she took her hand in hers, bending forward kissing it. She turned and simply smiled at her father from where she is. Staying standing within those few feet from them, she tells them what transpired in Asturia and Freid. After hearing his daughter's explantion of events, he speaks. " Well, that's good." "It seems you did exactly what I had set you out to do." "A job well done." She bowed while smiling at the praise. "It would seem we have much to prepare within the month." "Not to mention, one of them is have a gown made for you." "You know either one of us, wouldn't really let you go so easily." "You may not be intended to inherit the throne, but you are the ambassador of this country, and you will act accordingly to your title and station." "If that is what you wish and desire of me, your highness." She respones addressing her mother. She bows once again before taking leave of her king and queen. The king's council stayed hidden, watching his bodyguard leave the throne room. They had been waiting all this time. The opporunity would quickly present itself. Once that occurs the royal family, their friends, and bodyguard didn't stand a chance.
