Tomorrow was the coronation. Ori had done good hiding his magic stamp from his father. Peter had called a meeting so they could discuss what to do with a certain problem they wouldn't tell Ori what it was. That was, until Ori was invited to the meeting. He was to be King within 42-hours, so he was finally being included in these secret meetings.

Ori sat waiting, kicking his feet in his chair until his father entered with the Kings and Queens of other surrounding nations, and Ori's Legion, since they were to be the new Royal Guards.

One Queen, that went by Momo, was one of the blonde rulers. She was robed in pink. Another one, Daisy, had short brown hair and was dressed in orange and yellow. Rosetta was the last Queen to enter, also with blonde hair but having blue clothes. Mario, the King who entered with Momo, had short brown hair and a busy mustache. He wore red, while his brother Luigi, who entered with Daisy, wore green. Bowser, who entered with Rosetta, was wearing a yellowish-peach tuxedo with green tailcoats and black spiked wristbands on each arm. His hair was red and styled like a mohawk. Everybody started at Ori as they entered, standing silently in the room for a few minutes.

"That's the next King?" Daisy asked.

"He doesn't look too tough to me!" Bowser exclaimed loudly.

Ori looked at his feet. It always happed, no matter what.

"I think he's cute!" Momo said.

Ori felt his face get hot and covered it with his hands. Scissors sat down next to Ori and placed a hand on his head. Ori looked up at Scissors, who just sat there staring straight forward politely. Ori sat up straight and Scissors took its hand off.

"Okay, so about last time. You said to kill her?" Luigi asked. "What did she do wrong?"

"Lots of things. I had already banished her, but people are still visiting her. Her spies are seeping into our Kingdom walls. We need to stop her before she gets to hurt anyone!" Peter slammed his fist on the table. "So I set up for one of our new Royal Guards to...remove of her before she destroys the entire Kingdom."

Ori looked at Scissors.

"The thing is," Peter resumed, "I believe my daughter had interacted with the witch."

Everybody gasped except for the Legion.

"Oribia?!" Momo asked, shocked. "But she's so...so perfect!"

"How do you know for sure?" Mario asked.

"One of my spies caught glimpse of Oribia entering her cottage. Just two days ago."

Ori figured it out. They were plotting to kill the Mistress of the Forest. But she seemed so nice! Did she trick him? Was the stamp going to wear off right after his coronation? Scissors pulled Ori closer to it, comforting him a little.

"Wow...I'd never imagined Oribia would do something like that..." Luigi said softly.

"We are to get rid of her tonight, to lower her suspicions. Do it quickly, so she won't writhe in agony."

"No!"

All of their eyes directed over to Ori. He was standing on his chair.

"No, no, no! You can't do that! She didn't do anything wrong at all!"

"Ori-kun, Oribia must have been brainwashed to think so and spread the lies to you. Please sit down."

"No! You don't have any proof if that's what she's doing! Until then, she's proven innocent!"

"Sit down, my liege." Scissors said. "You are drawing too much unnecessary attention to yourself."

Ori slumped back down. Scissors pulled Ori close again and started gently rubbing his head. Ori accepted it and closed his eyes...

Ori woke up in his bed. He sat up and looked around. Oribia wasn't down there yet. It was only 9:01p. Ori slid out of bed. Did Scissors put him there once the meeting finished? Ori went downstairs and saw...Peter.

He was holding Ori's stamp.
