I wish it were summer. I'm currently in Australia half way through autumn and already freezing my butt off. So I do have an excuse to not write hehehe. There will be more chapters soon but they may not be up for a few days. I have my half yearly exams this week *feels very depressed *

Disclaimer: Read the one before

Chapter 4

What a Mouthful

"See I told you patience would pay off" commented Cia as they were told that they were going to see the king again

"What happens if they only want to torture us separately and are just trying to cover it up," asked Rex a bit skeptical as they walked put of the dungeon lead by a guard

"Stop being so worried"

"Who said I was worried"

"Me"

"Well I'm not so there!"

"Ok will you two just shut up for once in your life" pleaded Brae

"Why should we" said Cia stubbornly

"Because if you don't you both are going to die a very painful death" threatened Brae

"Like you can" muttered Rex

"You wanna have a taste of it!" yelled Brae

"Let's see you try" challenged Rex

That was the straw. Brae couldn't take it anymore. A little bit of arguing she can stand but when they've argued all-night it's just too much. She was going to show Rex not to mess with her again.

BANG SMASH CLONK CRASH.

"And he thinks I have a quick temper" said Cia as she watched and winced every once in a while

"Yep, I can agree with you on that" replied Ryan while doing the same thing.

The guard and servant meanwhile were watching/starring at what was going on. A what appears to be a very strong young man was getting chased around by a female and having a hard time throwing her off. Objects of all sorts were flying through the air and one landed very close to a maid that was coming out of a room.

"I'm sorry to interrupt but do you mind stopping them, they are smashing priceless objects" asked the servant politely

"Oh I'm sorry, yeah sure" answered Cia

* WHITLES VERY LOUDLY *

"HEY STOP IT, YOU GUYS, THIS IS NOT OUR HOUSE" shouted Cia

"So what" yelled the both of them back

"So if you don't stop we are going to be more trouble, not mention that we properly have to pay for all of it not that it matters but it's the principal"

"Why does money mean a lot to you now"

"Of course not, I'm just saying that unless the both of you want to get yelled at even more I suggest you stop fighting"

"Mmmm.nah" replied Rex and Brae

"Fine you leave me no choice"

Cia runs up to them stands in the middle of the fighting, hits Brae in the stomach making her double over and then kicks Rex where the sun don't shine"

"Now will you to stop fighting or do I have to do more damage" asked Cia

"Done enough, we'll stop" replied Brae, as Rex couldn't even stand up

"Well let's go then"

"Ah Cia I think we should wait a minute"

"Why?"

"Rex doesn't look to good"

"Oh yeah, sure"

After that little show they were taken to the King's study where they met the kingdom's most powerful people.

"I know we got of the wrong foot when we first met," said the king kindly

"That's all right, we're ok and that's what matters at the moment" replied Cia

"So to start of what are your names and where are you from?" asked King Jonathan

"My name is Ciana but everyone calls me Cia. This is my brother Rex and our friends Brae, Lan, Ryan and Lee. We are from a small country called New Zealand but I don't think that will mean anything to you. If you don't mind me asking who might you be?" answered Cia

"I am King Jonathan of Tortall my wife Thayet my son Prince Roald and his wife Princess Shinkokami. This is Sir Alanna of Trebond and Olau otherwise known as the Lioness. This is Numair Salmalin our most powerful mage. The others are Daine Sarrasri, Sir Keladry of Medaline, Sir Nealan of Queenscove and his wife Yuki, Duke Gareth of Naxen, Gareth the Younger, Duke Baird and Sir Raoul of Goldenlake (if I get any of the names wrong I'm sorry I can't remember all the spelling)"

"Ok.then"

"What purpose are you here for?"

"We were hoping you could tell us that"

"Do you know how you got here?"

"Nope. The closest I've ever got is were walked into a distortion in time and somehow it got us here"

"Do you know how to get back?"

"Not a clue"

* Knock, knock *

"Come in" answered King Jonathan

A servant walks in

"I'm terribly sorry you majesty but this just came for you and it's urgent" apologised the servant

"Well bring it here then"

The servant walks over to the king and gives him the message. As King Jonathan read the message Cia had a small conversation with her friends.

"Did you guys catch anything that he just said"

"Nah, didn't get a thing," said Lee

"Well what are going to do"

"Ask him for help I guess" said Rex

"Right when he's finished reading I'll ask" said Cia

"Ok" everyone, said together

As King Jonathan read Cia and her friends watched his facial expression waiting for him to finish. When he finally did his face had an expression of understanding, which puzzled them.

"Well it seems like I know how you got here" started King Jonathan

"And."

"You are here because our newest enemy has accidentally brought you here but now you are here for a different purpose and we can't get you back until you have fulfilled that purpose" finished King Jonathan

"Oh, phew, that was all it was"

"How can you say that"

"Well I guess all we have to do is go out there and find our purpose then"

"It's not that simple"

"What you mean"

"I mean we have to find your purpose for you"

"How does that happen"

"According to the message you aren't safe on your own"

"We can look after ourselves"

"Not in this world you can't"

"Why not?"

"Because our enemy is gathering information about you and sooner or later they are going to come for you. We can't let that happen"

"Still wouldn't it be better if they found us cause then they can tell us what we are here for"

"No, they might give you a wrong purpose and send you to your death or you may cause our downfall"

"So what you are saying it that until you find out what truly is going on we have to say put"

"Yes"

"Great, just great. What are we supposed to do until then"

"You may do mostly what ever you wish. We are leaving for the palace in a few days and you are coming with us. You will be more comfortable when we arrive there"

"Fine then, I guess we haven't got much of a choice"

"I'm sorry but it's for your own safety"

"Don't worry we understand, don't we"

"Sure" everyone said together

"Right then a servant will show you to your rooms for the next couple of nights"

"Thanks"

A/N bad ending I know it will get better. Next chapter a bit more exciting
