The Royal Family
I'm trying my best to get the flow with this story. Don't be shy now, you can comment, review etc. The thing is trying to make these without doing them too late. Also, follow me on IG taylour64 :)
"Wh-wh-what am I going to do?" the lonely cat cries to herself.
The night was still there. Ophelia was the only survivor in the Island and she was trying to think of a plan to reunite with her family. She had sudden doubts that she may never EVER! See her family…
"I was so stupid…. It's been months. I just miss my husband, my mother, my papa… Why?" she shed tears.
She turned to the surfboard and paddles that she had with her. Maybe, just maybe she can find another island. But what if Kraken's crewmates where there? She had no time waste. Might as well take the chance now. She grabbed what all she had left… herself and the paddles. Went up ashore and began to paddle to the south.
In just a day and a half, she manages to land in the island she least Cave! Kraken's crew was planning to go here. But they probably haven't made it. The queen got out and left her items on land. First thing she notices was a giant cave. The sunset was coming and she still saw the glow coming from the cave.
"This must lead me towards the riches" she thought "I better go check it out".
As soon as she entered the cave, she saw what looked like loads of crystals, diamonds, rubies, sapphires. Glowing in awe. She was amazed no one was able to grab these. Truth be told, they are hard to take. These jewels were deeply ingrained by the Babylonians. Captain Kraken had ordered his crewmates to guard this island but had to return due to citizens attacking them. Ophelia took a closer look seeing the reflection of her own self. She lost a lot of weight! From 133 lbs to 90 lbs! Her face was messy, she still had the bullet in her chest. Blood was dry but was hurting everytime she touched it.
"I'm a dang mess! I need to find someone quick".
She ran out of the cave until she tripped. She began to curse out loud until she saw a glowing blue shine from the sand.
"Wait a minute! Could it be?" she thought.
Her first act was to dig, dig, dig until she saw… A blue Sol Emerald! How? Why? To tell you, when the crewmates left, one of them accidently left it behind without thought. It didn't matter though, Ophelia had to get help and fast!
"...Sol Emeralds, please unleash your powers and send help! Send help before I collapse. I haven't eaten in 4 days! Sol Emeralds PLEASE!" She yelled.
"Hello? Any survivors?" a koala guard looked through the land.
"Yes! Thank you God! I need to keep this"
"Hello?"
Ophelia walked out with the Sol Emerald in her hand. The three guards realized it was her as soon as she passes out.
"QUEEN! QUEEN! THANK THE HEAVENS! YOU'RE ALIVE!" they cheered.
"Somebody! Get her to the emergency room!" the taller koala ordered.
"Yes, sir!" a younger, shorter koala saluted.
Eyes were opened...she was still alive? Yes she was. And as she turned to the left, she saw her dearly beloved husband. He was wrapped in bandages and a neck brace.
"Ophelia… My dear…" he whispered.
"No… don't you die on me now" she spoke trembling.
"Hehe! He's gotta do a lot better than that! To put me down" he chuckled. "I won't go down easily".
"Once we recover-"
"It's on… we will go to war, but not now. Let us recover. We lost a lot of our men and citizens".
"Roger that Captain!" she saluted.
1976:
The war began… if any guards/soldiers saw Kraken's crew, they would be immediately destroyed. Kraken knew very well. He still had the emeralds and specter. Things were not getting any better. Everything became expensive, families had to live together in small rooms. Either a one or two heck! In some islands, it could have been just the living room to sleep in. The Royal Family did their best to destroy kraken's plan. It wasn't enough. People were on starvation, buildings were being torn down. Money was hard to get. And to make things worse, some people accused King Willem and Queen Ophelia of not being good leaders. Cue the mother-in-law.
"I-I don't understand why you keep wasting time. Wasting lives, resources your wife isn't doing anything. She's just making it worse" she huffed.
"Don't talk about her like that mother. I don't see you doing anything-" Willem folded his arms.
"Excuse me!-"
"Hush! Don't speaks lies mother! Where were you when we planned as a family. A Royal Family? Where were you when Eugene, Alfred, Edna and the others tried to provide food for the need? Heck! I didn't see you help the injured like Annie did!" he scolded.
"...*Gasp* Don't speak to me! I'm so disappointed in you".
"Mother!-"
"I said don't speak to me! and don't bring your sorry for an excuse baby doll in my house!".
With that, she left and he hadn't spoken to her in 3 months.
Present:
"Wait? How did Captain Kraken captured all the Sol Emeralds?" Marine asked
"He first took trips all around the islands and he knew exactly where the emeralds were hidden" the queen answered.
"Why did you guys try to hide them in the first place?" Blaze asked without hesitation
"Well we couldn't place them all together. He could've gotten them just like that. Unfortunately, hiding them was not good enough"
"Why are you telling us all this? I'm still confused-"
"Just let me finish the story and I'll answer that for you sweetie" Ophelia looked at her daughter.
1979:
"Enough, is enough! This war will not end if we keep losing our men! If we have to go we'll go!" Willem stated.
"Wait! We have to go out there?" Ophelia cried
"Yes…" the general answered "you two are our only hope. We cannot allow this robot pirate and his friends continue on longer. They must be destroyed permanently".
"...Fine" he rose up from his chair.
"WILLEM THE THIRD! HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND? WHY ARE YOU LOSIN IT?" Ophelia screamed.
"Look! Ophelia. I don't want to suffer anymore, our people need us. It's time to end this once and for all. Let me make the decision dang it woman" he huffed in frustration.
She had no say unfortunately, queens could not go against their husbands word or speak back to them. For they would be look down on and mistrusted.
Pirate Island… home to the most mischievous criminals. They were viewed as inferior towards the rest of the inhabitants. Currently, they gathered money together and spend their days playing cards, "marrying" the best types of woman. Just, awful things. But this marks the end of the war. The War of Sol '75. The island was quiet, they knew the king and queen arrived along with their soldiers to end these 4 years of pain and misery. He requested to see Kraken and his crew one last time. They understood how this would go. You see ashore the captain and lots and lots of his crewmates. They prepared too, cannons, rifles, swords, lazers, everything. It was all or nothing.
"I honestly thought you two were dead. The reaper must found favor with you" he chuckled.
"You disgust me!" Ophelia sneered.
"Alright, so before we capture you two and kill ya off, whatdya have to say? Final words?"
Nothing was said among the team. They relied on their strength and the Sol Emeralds. It was not the time to run away but to fight like a warrior.
"AIM! FIRE!" one of the crewmates shouted. So the battle begins.
The crewmates attacked first. They came for the swords and shotguns. The soldiers of Sol came charging. Running like mad men. The battle was long. It only lasted up to evening time. But the Sol kingdom was finally winning. King Willem felt proud with a hint of relief. Queen Ophelia was still battling the best way she could. Apparently, she was the only women fighting. Regardless, they had no sympathy, it was whoever that was not on their side. The team was succeeding and Captain Kraken grew ever hot.
"YAR! Boys! Get the big weapon!" he gave orders
They pulled up two humongous laser cannons and shot fire at every angle. Many were dying, even their own "pirate associates" fell to the ground. Ophelia ran and hid behind a big boulder along with Willem, Albert, and another soldier.
"I can't believe it! We're gonna die" Ophelia said.
"No! Don't give up girl! We are the holders of the Pyrokinesis and-" Willem was cut off by the loud laser blast that hit a boulder next to them.
"Get 'em at any cost!" Kraken said
"We don't have time for pride talk, we must go defeat this treacherous criminal" Albert said while charging his gun.
"On the count of 3, we'll move out" Willem said. "3..2..1…"
"FIRE!"
BLAST! The boulder shot up into chunks, falling all over the sandy beach ground.
"GWAHAHA! I did it boys! I killed the weak. This era of royalty has ended" Kraken jumped.
"Think again you chump" Albert said. All four of them were standing side by side. Albert turned to the young koala boy. "Are you alright kid?"
"Don't worry about me sir, I'm doing this for the koala community" he tugged his shirt. "But if I don't make it, tell ma,pa, and little brother I'll miss them". All Albert did was nodded.
"ARG! KILL 'EM KILL 'EM ALL! I will not rest! I will not give up none of these fine jewels. Rubendo, follow me!" Kraken commanded.
"Yes, sir" he obeyed.
"You will not win, and I promise that on the Babylonians" Ophelia said.
The fight went on and on, the Sol kingdom was growing stronger and stronger. One of the soldiers told Willem and the rest to head up to the Big Swell to stop and destroy Captain Kraken. They pulled a small wooden boat along with it's paddles to the shore. Willem nodded.
"Let's go you three-"
BAM! What was that? Everyone turned to see the younger male koala was shot in the stomach. All open hole with his guts and intestines hanging to the floor. Tears were coming out as he gave a big smile before falling.
"NOOO!" Albert screamed.
Ophelia was ready to tear up but she held them back. She along with Willem, followed along towards the boy. The pirate who shot him was on top of the cannon laughing. But soon, he fell to his passing as one soldier grabbed his bomb and threw it at his face. BOOM! Right in the face.
"Son… you're parents are proud of you... I'm sorry" Albert said.
"...Bro..ther….." his last words were.
Albert got up and started heading to the small boat. Willem looked at Ophelia as she knew what that look meant. It was time to get serious.
Big Swell, a dark, depressing little land that was known to have heavy tocin. Only the most experience researchers were allowed there. They had to close it down in the late 40's due to a big accident. Captain Kraken knew better than this. Albert was peddling the wood very fast.
"Keep pedaling to the left, he's heading to the gated area" Willem pointed.
They all soon got close to the island. Though the storms have grown heavier and lighting started to struck.
"Hurry boys!" Kraken said while holding 6 emeralds and Jewel Scepter in his hand. "Get me to the top of the radiation".
"We can't let him get away!" Ophelia said.
"We won't… he's gonna be destroyed" Willem spoke.
"Rubendo! Get them and kill them. That's an order!" Kraken said
"Aye, aye" he said while saluting.
It was three against one. Rubendo took out his sword.
"Let's make it fair-"
"NO! You're gonna die!" Willem shouted.
"Hmmm… then it is what it is. On guard!" he held up his sword.
They all started to attack him one by one. Punches, kickes, even flames were thrown. Willem tried to punch him in the face but Rubendo cut his hand but not entirely off. Blood was gushing out like waterfalls.
"No, no, no! If I must die, I will die! For Sol!" he yelled while running towards him.
They continued fighting. He gave out a quick flame throw while Rubendo's sword blocked it. He tried to cut him but missed. Willem tried to hand chop him then roundhouse kick him but failed. It was on going on until Willem's hand got wrapped around the sword. Rubendo smiled as he knew this was his advantage and so he took it. With one swift elbow, he swift kicked him into the gut.
"HONEY!" Ophelia yelled.
Albert grabbed his sword and held it up, pointing at Rubendo.
"You're not getting through without me!" he said then charged towards him.
Sword to sword was a heavy duel. Back and forth was a tough battle but Rubendo ended up knocking him out to the ground.
"Albert!" Ophelia ran towards him.
His nose was starting to bleed. He let go of his sword and said;
"Here, take it go and defeat that monster".
"Really? The "queen"? Sweetie, you might as well leave. Or I could still give you off to the boys back on Pirate Island?" Rubendo said.
Ophelia grabbed the sword and turned around with a serious look.
"...Fight me you #$%"
"You'll regret that little girl!" he charged towards her.
Again, he tried to slash her but he missed. She jumped on his sword and front flipped to hit him. But he jumped away doing a backflip. Their swords clashed together. The fight was rough they were pushing each other back and forth. Then he began to push her away. He smiled knowing that he would win but, a slash came across. He looked down to see his wires were messed up.
"But... how?" he looked up.
"This "queen" can not only project pyrokinesis but can teleport quickly. You shouldn't have underestimated me servant".
He dropped his sword and signed.
"This isn't what I wanted. I wanted rights for us" he whispered to himself
"What?" Ophelia looked up.
"I hate your family for what they have done. You took our lands, our jewel. Those jewels belong to us!" he scoffed off.
"I don't know who told you that fairytale sir but it's obviously a lie. You pirates are a disgrace to the Sol universe".
"We maybe a disgrace but you can't hide the truth forever"
With that, he took his sword and slowly walked his death to the other side of the chamber. He fell off, letting the sharks eat him. All Ophelia could do was stare.
