Chapter 12:Dinner and Discussion

Being called to dinner with royal family sound nice, unless they were a little paranoid about- nevermind. After Michael woke his siblings they followed Lloyd to the dining room. This time they were eating with them and not steal this time. Michael had a weird feeling in his stomach, not hunger but worry. If the koopalings tried anything on them, then he would have to act.

"I hope it doesn't come to that," he pleaded.

They came close to the dining doors which opened, and the sight made his stomach drop to the floor.

The koopalings sat in the same place as before with Bowser at the head of the table. All eyes are on the Moonfangs which was creepy. Michael breaths to keep calm and keep his dark self in check. They walked in and took their seats. Oran next to Bowser Jr in his right, then Michael in the middle, and Astell on his left and Lemmy next to her. He waved his claw at her with a smile, but she scooted closer to his big brother's side. Lemmy put his claw down and turned looking at the table not wanting to scare them more. Then doors opened with three goombas stacked on top of one another pushing a long cart with their food. The top goomba had a chef lifted the silver covers that had their food, steaming hot meat with a side of bread and vegetables and a variety of drinks. They passed out everyone's food along with silverware and cups already filled with a drink. The Moonfangs got their food, the top goomba asked what he would like to drink.

"I'll take a water," Michael responded.

"Milk!" Oran and Astell responded.

When the chef goomba stack left back to the kitchen they got their drinks and began eating.

It was the usual for the royal family, mostly bickering, but it was new to the Moonfangs. This time with more people in the room. Then Ludwig spoke to Michael across the table and through everyone else he spoke.

"You must excuse my siblings. They don't have the best table manners to guests."

Michael waved it off, "I'm use to this sort of thing."

"Really? You only have two siblings. I have seven," he slumped in his chair, "and I'm the oldest."

"So am I and I can handle my siblings just fine."

"Bleh! What the-?" Oran spat out his "food".

Some of it was plastic instead of what was on his plate.

"Who?" His question was answered with laughter close to him.

Larry is banging on the table in uncontrollable laughter. Oran, however, wasn't laughing at his prank.

"Yea, get used to being pranked by Larry daily," Bowser Jr said, "and don't bother getting back. He's really fast."

"Fast huh?" Oran mumbled.

Larry stopped his laughter and went back to eat. Oran took this opportunity to get back at him, his hands fidgeted in his lab wait for the right moment. When he had his meat in his hand, Oran flicked his hand up blasting air. Larry's spoon flipped up flinging the food to his face and sliding down. Oran snickered getting back at Larry who glared, but in a playful way.

He wiped the food off, "Not bad. Just you wait I'll get you back."

"How did you do that?" Bowser Jr asked.

"My power is to control air. Hot air, Cold air and use them to my advantage."

"Interesting," Iggy said, "What else can it do?"

"It also can make me go really fast," he disappeared from his seat.

"Woah," Iggy was amazed.

Then he felt someone tapping his shell, so he turned to see Oran wave for a second and back to his seat.

"Can you do that too?"

Michael shook his head, "Our abilities are past down to the next generation."

"What's your family power?" Bowser asked from the head of the table.

Michael took a breath, "Light and Dark. Our mom controls plants from green grass to trees, leave, flowers and sometimes mushrooms. Our dad uses very random dark power. He as too many abilities to list now, but he does have a limit to how much he can use."

His dark form made him grip his fork tight expressing angry through Michael's body. He dropped the fork and squeezed it for control.

"I always wandered, how can you do magic?" Lugwig asked.

Michael lifted a brow, "What you mean?"

"When you were fighting your way to escape your hands flashed white and or glow with a bright light. Is that magic?"

He finished the rest of his food and pushed the plate aside, "Yes, as I said before my family have light and dark powers, but in school we learned how to combine our natural power into magic."

He demonstrated by holding out his right hand, then it glowed white and the whit energy made a ball of light. He held is right one up that crackled with black electricity. Bowser looked at ball of light and suddenly had a flash of a memory.

Dinner ended a few minutes later, so everyone left the table to go around the castle. Michael was heading back to the room and thinking to himself.

"I gave a lot of information about us, didn't I?"

"Yes, you did," his dark form responded.

"Great," Michael said sarcastically, "I forgot you can hear my thoughts too."

"You forget about me so often anyway and I always have to remind you."

"Anyway, did you enjoy the show at dinner?"

Michael felt a pinch in his head that made him gasp and hold his head, "As much as I am mad that you gave a lot of information about your kind away, no I'm not. I was curious that a certain someone wasn't there. Look ahead."

Michael looked in front of him and there his stood. Kamek stood in the path to the room with his hands behind his back.

"Kamek? How come you weren't at dinner with us?"

He adjusted his glasses, "I had other thing to attend to. Being one of Bowser's general of army takes a lot of time."

"You train them?" Michael asked interested.

"Yes, I do," he motioned him to follow, "From here you can see our field we use."

Michael follows Kamek to a window that lets them see the field. It was in the back of the castle. It was a smaller than their backyard at home and they have a small lava pool underneath it. A small bridge connecting it to somewhere to the castle.

"Woah."

"We have practices in the mornings and it's open for anyone to use or sometimes Roy takes other to his gym on the lower level."

Michael unsheathed his claws, "I do wanna work on my skills and magic."

"There is a practice tomorrow morning if you're interested. That is where I work with work with the koopalings," he starts to walk away," I'll leave you to think about it."

Michael hasn't told them that he is train for the entrance exam at Moonlight Camp. He decided that he will go and train with them tomorrow.

"I should tell Oran and Astell," he looks behind him and sighs, "If I can find them. I wonder where they are?"
