Chapter six:
Lexa:
"The queen wants to see you," my second, Indra said. I nodded in thanks and made my way to the throne room. What could the queen want? Is she releasing me from my position as Commander? Is something wrong that she needs me to lead my troops into battle? Am I being executed? Did I do something wrong? Why does the queen want to see me? Before I knew it, I was standing in front of the throne room.
"Commander?" the queen asked.
"Yes my queen?" I asked walking into the throne room. The queen was sitting on her throne twirling a knife in her hands. She looked deadly and beautiful.
"Commander Lexa, I have known you since you were born. I know I can trust you to not only do what I say, but also what is best for our people." The queen said.
"Thank you my queen. I will not let you down. What is it that you would like me to do?" I asked.
"I need you and some of your warriors to go down to the talking flower patch and get the new 'Wonder' and bring it to me." She said.
"What about the others? What will they think?" I asked.
"They will not know anything… because you will be going to their camp in its place. You will be my eyes and ears in that camp." The queen answered.
"Of course my queen. I would be honored. Now if you'll excuse me, I must get ready." I said.
"Yes, yes! Go. Good luck," she said. I bowed and walked out.
"Indra!" I called out while walking to my cabin, "We need to talk."
