"Mindy, as you know I will not be the ruler of the seas forever, and when that time comes, I need you to be ready to take my place, but you can't do that until you have earned the virtue of peace, for without it a ruler would be nothing."
"But daddy, how did I get this virtue." Mindy had just turned 18 and was now old enough to take over the throne, but as she has just found out, she needed one more thing before her assurance as Queen was definite.
"You most travel to The Seas Of The Forgotten, there you will find a master willing to help you achieve this special virtue. It seems like just yesterday when I was traveling to those seas to get my virtue, but of course this is different for you. Times have changed, things are much more dangerous out there for a girl like you. So I have arranged for two very brave men to take care of you, and watch over you on your journey to The Seas. You can come in now boys." Two people came walking into Daddy's throne room. One was a yellow square with eyes that made him look crazy, he was wearing brown pants, and white shirt with a pin on red tie and black shoes, the other guy didn't look as smart, he was wearing green pants with pink flowers on, and he was shaped like a star, his eyes just made him look even more stupid.
"Mindy, I want you to meet Sponge Bob Square Pants, and Patrick Star. They will be helping you on your journey." Mindy remembered these guys, they had been sent to get back daddy's crown after it was stolen by Plankton, they even saved the town from plankton by singing an odd song, something to do with Goofy Gubbers.
"We've met before,"
"Good, than you should no problem getting to know each other."
Mindy went into her room to start packing, she had no idea how long she would be gone, but better safe than sorry, but come to think of it, she could always buy clothes from a store, but would there would be stores in The Seas, and also if she as going to buy clothes than she would need to bring money, and how much would she bring, would things be expensive there? As Mindy was thinking about this clothes dilemma, Sponge Bob, came up the stairs and stood in Mindy's doorway.
"Ready to get started?" He asked.
"Uh, yeah," Mindy said stuffing some clothes into her pack. I'll just roll with the punches, she thought.
She said good bye to her daddy and all her various stuffed animals, and prepared to leave the castle. Contrary to what many people thought, Mindy had never more than a few 100 feet away from the castle, and to be beginning a journey that would take her well over 100 feet away, made her stomach kind of queasy. But if these two dim whits could do than so could she, and besides, what could happen?
