Sorry for the long wait... I've been busy, I work at a call center everyday for now and things were a bit... Zany. That's all can say about my life right now, things are just in my way and I can finally post up this chapter.
And Plotz and Ralph were sent away for trying to write this chapter. (I'm too lazy to insert a small intro for this part, maybe next time I will post something fun before the chapter begins.)
Enjoy and thanks for the kind reviews, I'm doing my hardest to improve on a lot of things in this story. ^w^
After the whole day of spending time with Macy and her children, the young warners and their mother went back home for the day. From behind a tree, Salazar stood there, watching them all.
"You'll get what's coming to you all. Don't worry, my plan is going to unfold." The angry guard turned to his soldiers, they were waiting for his orders.
"So what are we doing tonight, again?" One soldier asked while looking at his leader. Salazar, annoyed at him, turns and gets in his face, he whispers to him.
"We are going to get rid of the king and queen and then we are going to kill their children as well. All of them. No more Yakko and no more warners. It's already over..." Salazar whispered before the soldier could say anything else. Salazar finally turns back around takes a good look at Macy before grinning. Behind him are his soldiers as one soldier has three mean and grumpy dogs leashed up with ropes on their muzzles, they all let out a growl.
"I think our plan will start with her though..." Salazar snickered, he turned to a soldier with wacky black hair, his clothes were torn a bit and his blue eyes were looking at him.
"What is it, man?" The soldier gave Salazar a look, he didn't know what he was going to do.
"You and Trevor will go in with your weapons and get rid of that woman. If you haven't heard, Bobesca's got a sister. If you kill her, we can get Bobesca out of the castle first as I will handle the king." Salazar ordered.
"I thought we were making them run away, man." The wacky haired soldier complained but the guard got in his face.
"I SAID KILL HER! DO AS I TELL YOU AND DON'T YOU DARE HOLD BACK!" Salazar drew his sword at him as the man nodded quickly and took out his dagger and Trevor followed him. The blonde guy kicked the door open as he stepped inside of Macy's house followed by the wacky haired man. Salazar drew back his sword and beckoned the others to follow him.
They slowly made their way back into the village. They were met by two new village cops. Salazar walked passed the tall fat one as the small fat one tried to welcome them, but he was ignored.
"Daaah, what's going on?" The tall fat man wearing a blue shirt, a hat and blue pants asked as he turned around and saw Salazar walking off with his men.
"I don't know, but it's best that we warn the king! As new village cops we have to protect him!" The small fat man wearing green cloths and a hat replied.
"Duuuaauh, but what if we get killed?" The tall fat one was scared just thinking about what Salazar would do.
"Ralph you dope they won't kill us! We'll take a short cut! Come on!" The smaller one snorted as he ran around Scratchansniff's small cola stand and went into the forest, there he found a path that took them to the castle much faster. Ralph followed him but he still wasn't so sure about the plan, he was sweating heavily just thinking about all of the trouble they'd be in.
"Plotz, Duuuh, I wanna tell you that this feeling I got is a creepy feeling. I think we should send for a guard or two..." Ralph whined and complained but Plotz wasn't listening. Once the two made it to the castle, the ran into the backyard of the castle as they both heard the sound of barking.
"Oh boy, do you think they have a few puppies?" Plotz quickly turned around to see a soldiers and Salazar himself and the one soldier that was holding three of the dogs by their leashes.
"Well, well, well, I guess the king ordered new guards to protect his little ass... You know, I'm going into that castle neither way and you two can't stop me." Salazar's grin made Ralph and Plotz feel uneasy. Plotz gulped while Ralph was shaking, the growling dogs made him want to melt into the snow below his own feet as he turned to Plotz for an idea.
In the castle...
William was getting a little worried about his queen and his children, he's never been without them for so long before. He was reading a book to keep his mind from worrying so much, but even that wasn't helping.
Suddenly, a bottle flew into the king and queen's room. William heard a 'clink!' sound and went over to the window of the room and noticed a small bottle on the floor with a rolled up letter inside. He took the rolled up paper out of the bottle and unrolled it slowly. He read a few lines as his eyes grew wider and wider with worry.
The letter read:
"Oh my goodness! Bobesca, I came over to Macy's house to check on her and the boys since they invited me over today only to find her body and a bunch of blood left over on the floor! You may want to come over and see what's been done, I got her out of that house and her boys are no where to be seen, I've tried to send my own dog to find them, but no avail! They have gone missing! I'm very sorry about your sister Ms Bobesca, I pray that you will be okay after taking the time to read this. I'm so sorry hun."
~ Diana Clover
William looked up from the letter and quickly went through his things, he was planning on going out to see Diana Clover but Schwartz come into the room.
"Oh! William, Bobesca and the boys are back! Come on down now, don't be so worried, she's fine!" Schwartz excitedly took his hand. William was going to tell her about the letter he still held in his hand but he stayed silent.
The castle doors opened as Bobesca and the kids entered the hall. Dot quickly ran over to her father with excitement as Yakko watched. Wakko got out of his mother's grasp as he ran over to his father as well and asked him a bunch of questions.
"So what did you do today Da Doo! Did you miss us?" Wakko wondered as William had to keep them calm. It was becoming a series matter.
"Yes Wakko, I missed all of you, but I have some horrible news this afternoon... I'm so sure if you'll all handle it too well..." William's smile turned into a deep frown. Bobesca knew it by the look on his face that something wasn't quite right.
"Honey, what's really going on? Did something happen while we were away?" Bobesca sounded very concerned, her eyes grew a bit big.
William cleared his throat and handed her the letter that came into the window a few minutes ago.
"Someone threw this in our window. They go by the name of Diana Clover." William didn't dare to look back up at his queen. The worried queen took the letter and read it word for word as tears started to form in her eyes, her lips were trembling. This made Yakko look super concerned, Dot and Wakko stopped chasing each other around the room to see their mother in tears. She covered her face as the letter was dropped to the ground. Ms Schwartz picked up the letter and placed her hand over her mouth.
"Oh! Oh my lord! Macy died? But... But I thought she was alive when you all went over to her place!" Schwartz went into a panic.
"I just left... What happened?" Bobesca sobbed.
"I don't know, I just got the letter." William sadly replied, he looked down at the floor.
"Dad, what happened to aunt Macy?" Dot wondered.
"Yeah, what's going on?" Yakko didn't understand either. Wakko only watched the scene play, he was wondering about his aunt too.
"She passed away... Unfortunately, it wasn't a simple passing, she was... Murdered..." Bobesca hissed, she ran up the stairs and William ran after her and so did the kids.
"Mom! Wait!" Yakko, Wakko and Dot shouted after her, she slammed the door shut, too angry and frustrated to come out.
"Let's leave her alone. She's been through enough now..." Schwartz sighed, she took the letter and placed it on the table near the kitchen area.
They all didn't say much for the rest of the day...
That night, Yakko finally heard his mother. She was in Dot's room with William. He calmly got out of the bed and heard them telling her a story. Yakko knew that his mother didn't want them to worry even though she was still upset about her sister's death.
Yakko put the side of his face to the door so that he could listen in.
"Once upon a time a brave knight married a beautiful princess and had two sons. And we wanted a daughter too." William began the story.
"And is that me?" Dot asked with a small smile.
"Yep, so we planted a garden all over the kingdom and the first day of spring all of those flowers bloomed. And out of the prettiest flower came you!" Bobesca continued from where he left off.
"Oh really!? Dot looked up at he parents.
"Yes." William chuckled a little as he looked at his queen.
"Yes my dear." Bobesca started to smile trying to hold in her sadness from the news that happened that day.
They then continued the story.
"So the knight and your mother took you home." William added.
"And what else happened?" Dot wanted to hear more of the story.
"Well, we wanted to ask you, who is the cutest girl?" Bobesca continued.
"I am!" Dot answered with a laugh.
"How did you ever get so cute?" William and Bobesca asked in unison.
"I was born that way!" Dot giggled.
"Well tell us your name, young lady." William playfully added.
"Princess Angelina Contessa Louisa Francesca Banana Fanna Bo Besca the Third, but you can call me Dot!" The young warner replied.
"Can we call you Dottie?" Both parents asked.
"No, just Dot. Call me Dottie and you die!" Dot's happiness turned into a sassy look.
This made her parents laugh as they finally tickled her, making her laugh too.
Yakko heard all of the fun from the outside, he finally smiled, knowing that everything was going to be okay.
"I like that story." Dot yawned and finally fell asleep. Her parents both got up and gave her a kiss before leaving her room. William blew out the candle and he went back to his room with his queen.
Yakko quickly ran back into his room and went back into the bed.
"Oh William, do you think Macy's death was my fault? Has someone been following us?" Bobesca was looking down at the floor.
"Oh no... No no no. It's not your fault this has happened, look at me." William stopped while grabbing both of her hands.
"None of this happened because of you... You left her house and she was fine, correct?" William continued to look at her.
"Correct, but when was the letter sent? And who is Diana Clover?" Bobesca wondered.
"I don't know, but they know Macy and they know you somehow." William replied while looking away from her.
"What is it?" Bobesca was worried about him again.
"I just, never met your sister before. You've told me stories, but I have not seen her." William was a bit disappointed. His queen smiled a little and embraced him in a hug, the king returned it.
Finally Bobesca and her king went to bed. But something outside was waiting for them...
Salazar had both village cops by his side. Forced upon an agreement, they followed his orders only. The wacky haired man and Trevor returned with the blood on their daggers.
"Ah, good, you both managed to kill her. And now we wait... She may decided to leave and go looking for the person who wrote the letter." Salazar's evil face grew more and more. He was becoming darker inside than he was outside.
"And they are probably wondering who Diana Clover is!" Trevor laughed, he fell down into the snow, cackling.
"Duuuh... Who is Diana Clover?" Ralph asked as Salazar turned and answered his question.
"There is no Diana Clover, it was part of the plan! We wrote that letter to get Bobesca and that's what we are going to do!" Salazar hissed making Ralph silent.
"So why are we in this mess?" Plotz wondered.
"You'll never understand, the king is using you! If you want to live, then I suggest you follow our lead this time." Salazar answered his question, Plotz didn't say anything else as he allowed them to continue their plan.
Finally they heard the castle doors open, the soldiers got up quickly from their crouched positions to fire at the queen, but it was only Yakko who looked at the guards.
"Hey, uuuuh... I was only going out for a little while this late, but I'm going back in..." Yakko was about to turn but Salazar got in front of him.
"Well if your mother isn't out here tonight, it looks like we get you!" Salazar growled as he picked up Yakko by his neck.
"Hey! What are you doing Salazar! Are you okay!?" Yakko was trying to escape from his grasp, Ralph and Plotz were horrified by what they just saw.
"Uh! King sir! Please, put the kid down! He's not the one your after, right? Let's not be so hasty!" Plotz was trying to keep the evil guard calm but he continued to choke Yakko.
Wakko was in his room sleeping until he heard shouting and yelling. He yawned and sat up while rubbing his eyes as he slowly opened to the door. He looked over the railing of the stairs to see that Yakko was being held up by Salazar. Wakko gasped.
From below he could he hear Salazar say a few words.
"Go inside and get the other ones!" Salazar ordered. Ms Schwartz was hearing the sounds of yelling for herself along with the sound of barking dogs. She rushed out of her room and noticed that Salazar held Yakko by the throat.
"You of all people have ruined my days of being king!" Salazar shouted at the young warner who couldn't breathe.
"YOU PUT HIM DOWN NOW!" A voice was heard, Salazar whipped around and saw Schwartz. Yakko was able to look at her, but he could't speak.
"Oh you need to shut up!" Salazar let's go of Yakko who falls to the ground, taking heavy breaths as he was able to breathe again. Salazar took a chair from the corner of the hall and threw it at her.
Schwartz dodged the chair and took out her umbrella and used it as a weapon.
Mean while, Wakko was running up the stairs to get his mother and father.
"Mom! Dad! Help! There is something wrong with this guard! He's got them attacking us!" Wakko shouted until he was caught by a thin guard who held him by his tail.
"You're not going anywhere. It's the end of the line for you, kid!" The guard said darkly as he was about to drag Wakko with him, but they heard a door slam open.
"Wakko!?" William was really in a panic as he saw his son being held by his tail.
"Oh? King William, what a surprise to see you, if you take one more step, we will kill him!" The guard grinned as he took out a dagger.
"What has gotten into you Spencer?" William looked at the thin guard who laughed.
"You don't care about us!" Spencer growled.
"What? Who said that?" William wanted to get his son from the guard's hands but with the dagger held out at the young warner, there was nothing he could do until he saw the guard get hit by something in the dark as he released Wakko.
It was Bobesca! She must have crept up from behind when he wasn't looking.
Wakko ran over to his father.
"Dad! I have to tell you something! Some crazy man is down stairs! He's attacking Yakko and Schwartz!" Wakko huffed and puffed.
"What? Who is he?" William rushed passed his son who was about to follow but Bobesca grabbed Wakko by the arm.
"No no! Don't you go down there! It's dangerous!" Bobesca quickly went into Dot's room and woke her up.
"Dot! Wake up! It's time for us to leave! We got to go now!" Her mother called. Dot woke up as she was dragged away, their mother was up stairs in the master bedroom.
William was finally down stairs as he saw a guard and Schwartz attacking each other while Yakko was trying to join in on the battle.
"Salazar?" William was confused, the evil guard turned to face the king.
"You finally came down... Listen, the truth is, I'm tired of picking up after your crap! I'm tired of this whole thing of me sitting behind on the side lines!" Salazar growled as he approached William.
From the side window, Plotz and Ralph watched, they hated to see things end this way.
"Let's go inside and help them!" Plotz shouted out loud only to get a lot of guards to point their guns at them in a circle.
"Or not..." Ralph gulped.
The battle between Salazar and William was about to begin as he was thinking about Bobesca, but he knew if he ran up to protect her, he would be leading the danger to them.
"So, you're tired of me? For no reason at all..." William looked back at Yakko.
"Yes, I'm tired of you... All you ever think about is those lousy kids! Those annoying warners!" Salazar shouted at him.
"That's not true, I said you would be the future king. I wasn't-" William was cut off by Salazar's insults. Yakko quickly rushed away without Salazar noticing, he made his way up the stairs to see if his mother and his siblings were okay.
"YOU MEANT TO RUIN MY LIFE!" Salazar drew out his sword. From the other side of the room a guard released the three dogs as they chased Schwartz down the hall, she made it to her room in time as they barked at her for a long time.
"I didn't ruin your life! I gave you kindness! I gave you a place to sleep in the castle! I gave you that medal of honor when you ranked number one above all guards! Salazar, I gave everything to you that you ever dreamed of!" William explained while breathing heavily from dodging his sword.
"Not everything! No! I ranked number one and after that I should become king!" Salazar swiped his sword at the king, but William swiftly dodged his attack.
"Hey sir! The kids and their mother have run off! We looked everywhere but we can't find them!" A guard caught Salazar's attention.
"What!? Go and find them! Take those mutts with you!" Salazar shouted out the wacky haired man who ran back to fetch his puppies.
William had his chance to attack as he swung a chair at Salazar, hitting his chin real hard, knocking him to the floor. Salazar fought back and ripped a part of the king's robe. William growled and picked up Salazar tightly, he slammed him into the castle doors and made a run for it, knowing that he didn't want to fight. He wanted to keep his peace with his best guard.
Salazar rushed after him, knocking the big warner down. William was about to give in, but his heart made him fight back.
"I don't wish to fight you Salazar, please don't do this..." William's eyes now widened with fear.
"You should have thought about that before you decided on having children!" Salazar growled.
Bobesca and the kids were in hidden room in the castle as Dot was confused.
"Mom, what's going on?" Dot asked.
"No time to explain! Run!" She panted.
Yakko and Wakko were far ahead as they were hearing the sound of barking Yakko and his family turned to see three dogs growling and slowly approaching them.
"A secret room doesn't mean you guys can hide, man!" The wacky haired man finally found them as he ordered the dogs to attack. The three black dogs ran towards Yakko, Wakko and Dot but their mother slammed them back.
"I don't think so!" Bobesca defended her children. Wakko took out a bag full of crazy and wild items, he finally found his mallet as he smashed one of the dogs into the ground, teeth scattered every where.
"Wakko? Did you just?" Dot looked at him.
"Yep! I have to fight too!" Wakko laughed.
"No time! Let's go!" Bobesca grabbed both Wakko and Dot's hands as Yakko followed from behind, he looked back and only saw two of the dogs get back up.
"Uuuuh... We better hurry, we haven't taken care of all of them!" Yakko rushed passed his mother and his siblings.
Wakko pulled out more items from his bag and placed them on the ground. The dogs stepped in spikes, rolling balls on the ground and tripped on themselves.
"I got them now!" Wakko giggled.
"Nice job son! Let's get out of here!" Bobesca stopped when she saw a guard get in front of them.
"Where do you think your going, queen!?" A guard in red clothes stopped her in her tracks.
"Please, let us go peacefully, we don't want any trouble..." Bobesca huffed and puffed, trying to catch her breath.
Dot showed her puppy eyes at the guard.
"Please let us go..." She begged.
"I'm not falling for that, kid! It's all over, it's Salazar's orders. You have to die..." The guard replied.
"But why? Aren't we cute? Or are you just gonna spare me?" Dot continued on.
"Dot, there is no time for that..." Bobesca warned her but she insisted on going with her own plan.
"Nonsense mother, I can handle it." Dot turned back to the guard.
"Are you gonna let us go or do I have to use force?" Dot was now being sassy.
The guard leaped at Dot but Bobesca took the hit, she wrestled with him as she was thrown towards the back balcony of the castle. She was dangling from the edge.
"Mother!" Dot called as she was the first one to run over to them.
"No Dot sweetie! Don't come closer! I'll be fine I promise!" Bobesca called out to her. Dot didn't know else to do. Her brothers wanted to help her too.
"Mom..." Wakko whimpered.
Yakko was about to use Wakko's mallet to save her, but his mother gave him a look. A look that made him think about his actions.
He dropped the mallet as Wakko picked it up.
"You three hit me, and it's the end of the line for your mother..." The guard gave them a dark look. Yakko, Wakko and Dot gasped.
"But she's cute like me! Don't kill her!" Dot pleaded.
"Yeah, what did we all do to deserve this? Please let mom go!" Yakko pleaded with her, they all gave the guard puppy eyes.
"Yakko, Wakko and Dot! Enough! These guards want what we have... I know that I am your mother, but you must listen to me. Go far away from here! Don't look back! I promise you that I will be behind you!" Bobesca lied, she knew that it was the end, but not for her children as they still had lives to live.
Yakko sniffled as Dot felt like crying.
"No! We can't cry sibs! Let's get going before something else happens!" Yakko turned back to look at his mother one last time before leaving. His mother gave him a warm smile while she was hanging off the balcony. Wakko placed his mallet back in his bag.
As they finally left, the guard held out a dagger at her.
"No... You won't stab me..." Bobesca decided to do what was best. She let go of the edge of the balcony and fell to her death. She closed her eyes and let herself fall. The guard snorted.
"That was easy." He grinned darkly as he walked off.
William and Salazar were still at it. William knocked Salazar into the kitchen table.
"Why won't you just give up William! I bet my puppies killed your children already!" Salazar whipped around and kicked the king in the face.
William held his cheek while looking up at the guard.
"No... You haven't won yet!" William growled as he about to give Salazar the final blow with a chair, but was stopped when he saw a guard coming down stairs. Salazar looked in the same direction.
"I have gotten rid of the queen and her kids." He said to his leader. This made William gasp in surprise and with disbelief all over his face, Salazar stabbed him in the heart with his long sword. William felt the sharp pain as he silently went limp on the ground.
His eyes focused on Salazar, tears coming out of his eyes.
"S-Salazar... Is this what you wanted?... To kill the ones who gave you almost everything you dreamed of?... Yakko... Wakko... Dot..." He looked up as memories of his children filled his mind even the memory of his wife, his love. Bobesca...
His eyes finally closed as he couldn't move or no longer feel the pain. Not even take a single breath of air anymore.
Bobesca was thinking about the same thing. She even thought about her sister before she closed her eyes and went limp outside of the castle in the back yard.
From afar Plotz and Ralph saw her.
"She fell from the balcony..." Plotz wanted to go over to her.
"Oh no..." Tears filled the cop's eyes. Ralph didn't know what to do or what to think. Finally a familiar face showed up next to them.
"Hey hey! Vhat's going on here!?" A voice was heard as Plotz and Ralph turned around to see Scratchansniff.
"Oh, what do you mean?" Plotz was trying to hide the whole fight between Salazar and the king.
"Plotz, vhat happened? I can hear shooting and clashing from afar and it's very loud. The villagers are complaining about it." Scratchansniff asked him again.
"Well you see... Well... Look..." Plotz pointed to a figure on the ground.
"Oh no! Bobesca!" Scratchansniff bent down and was now on his knees. He was trying to shake her awake.
"Bobesca! Bobesca! Wake up! Please!" Scratchansniff tried waking her up, but it was no use. Bobesca was gone.
"Can I tell yous something?" Ralph felt guilty.
"Vhere are the kids!?" Scratchansniff was now upset, he wanted to just knock them out.
"We don't know! We were forced by Salazar to join his guards in a plot to kill them! But we decided to stay outside, we tried to rush in and help, but we were threatened! We had nothing to do with this all!" Plotz explained.
"You have nothing to do with it? Then vhere is the king? I need to talk to him about this!" Scratchansniff was about to storm off to find him, but Ralph stopped him.
"Doooh no you don't. You don't want to go in theres." Ralph got in his way.
"Ralph please move it! I'm going in!" Scratchansniff insisted on going in but a few guards clicked their guns at him and then kicked him out of the castle court yard. He was sent flying all the way to his cola stand.
"Vhere are you Yakko, Wakko and Dot?" He sat there, dizzy as hell as he was knocked out cold, he lied in the snow.
Yakko, Wakko and Dot were running back to Macy's place. Dot started coughing, she was starting to get sick.
"Dot, are you alright?" Yakko held her close.
"Yes! Let's just keep on moving before they get us!" Dot coughed, the barking from the dogs were fading out. A few of the guards stopped chasing them. Wakko looked ahead and pointed at Macy's house that was coming up.
"Hey! I see it! Let's stay with her and tell her what happened!" Wakko ran faster.
"Right! Come on!" Yakko grabbed Dot's hand and they ran up to her house. Yakko opened the door, the house was empty that night. Yakko felt like he stepped in water.
"Wakko, do you have a match?" Yakko asked as Wakko took out his bag and searched for matches.
Once he found a match he handed it to Yakko who lit up the candles in the living room of the house. Yakko looked down at what he stepped in. He stepped in blood and a whole bunch of it was seen in the room.
"What happened here?" Dot was concerned.
"Remember what dad said about aunt Macy? I don't see her in here and if she was killed, she must have put up a real fight for all of this blood to be here." Yakko pondered at the sight.
"Where is Rakko and Nakko?" Wakko brought up their cousins.
"I wonder... Rakko! Nakko!" Yakko called their names, but no answer. Yakko huffed and went up the stairs to their rooms but they were empty.
"Are they here, Yakko?" Wakko was worried.
"No. They must have been in danger and ran off. Whoever was here was after them... Or maybe after us all..." Yakko tried to put the events together.
"Where will we stay? We can't live here!" Dot finally snapped Yakko back to their situation.
"Listen, let's see if we can live with Scratchy, I'm sure he may let us stay." Yakko finally thought of him.
"No! That evil guard will come after us! We must go far away! Like mom said..." Wakko was right for once. They would have to stay away from the castle now.
"You're right, Wakko. The best thing we can do is run far away. Come on sibs, we got a new home to find." Yakko beckoned them to follow.
Their new path was opening as their adventure was only beginning...
To be continued...
Whoa... What a chapter. Longer than expected. I wanted to make Salazar snap at this point because I don't want to keep you guys waiting for what happens to the family. William and Bobesca died to protect their children and Schwartz was hiding from it all as she was forced into her room by Salazar's guard dogs. She had not witnessed their deaths but she will be in the next chapter as well. Sorry for the long wait on this chapter. Chapter 5 will be coming soon... As for dialogue it's hard to get it right, hopefully it was different. Emotions have changed in this as well. Ralph and Plotz are introduced but are forced to work with Salazar. The question is, did Macy really die though? Was there a chance that she put up a good fight like Yakko insisted? And I hope the name Diana Clover got a few laughs as there is no such person in this story! XD
Thanks for reading! The reviews are awesome so far! Thanks! ^w^
