Chapter 6
"Howard what are those black dots buzzing everywhere?" Gregor asked.
"Those are their fliers only they don't use bats they use I believe you call them flies."
"FLIES! Ewe no I hate flies and they're giant flies ewe no." Lole said.
"Relax Lole they can't hurt you and the bats can probably bite them right in half." Gregor said.
"So what they are still creepy," Lole said, "Ripred shut up."
"I didn't say anything."
"But you thought it."
"So how can I can I be quiet when I am already quiet?"
"Why don't you just be quiet?"
"Both of you be quiet before they find out we are here."
After Ripred and Lolegot quiet, they could hear buzzing very loud buzzing and the closer they got the louder it got. When they got very close, they saw the beautiful city the buildings looked like they were made out of brown glass and glisten from the glare of fire. When they reached a cliff close to the city, they had to leave the bats because they would look different, Howard said, "Everyone we have to walk the rest of the way for safety."
"Oh, Howard Rapunzel feels the same way about you." Lole said with a giggle.
"LOLE!" Howard and Rapunzel said at the same time.
"I calls um as I sees um."
After that everybody was silent for the rest of the trip and it was going to be about thirty minutes till they got to the wall. When they were about half way there Gregor asked, "Um, what do Rapunzel and Howard feel?"
"Oh that, Howard likes her, and Rapunzel likes Howard."
"Oh wait till you meet your sister it will be like looking in a mirror."
"Wow that's cool." Lole said sadly.
"Hey what is a matter?" Gregor said.
"Oh nothing it's just, nothing."
"It's something because you're sad."
"I really don't know if Luxa will like me because she has been queen for several years and I just come down here and take it away from her."
"True she could get irritated by it."
"Your funny dude Gregor." She said with a laugh.
"Thank you I guess."
"Gregor we're almost there so I would step away from Lole so Luxa won't be mad at you." Ripred warned him.
"I'm not flirting with her." Gregor said rudely
"Don't say I didn't warned yah."
"Yeah Gregor you should get away I don't want my sister to hate me."
"Oh okay." He said while he was walking over to Howard.
"Gregor you must not talk to Luxa when we reach her." Howard said.
"Why can't I talk to her?" Gregor said looking at his feet.
"Because you will break her heart again when you leave again and I do not to see her hurt."
"I promise you I will come back when I am older Howard I love her."
"Love is a big word Gregor."
"I know, but still I could never forget her."
"You are too young for this kind of commitment Gregor."
"I'm talking to Lole and you don't seem to mind."
"Because Lole can go back she has seen the sun which means she can go back."
"You disgust me Howard not wanting the happiness for your cousins one you just meant and one that is like you sister."
"I am giving them happiness by keeping them away from you."
"You know I used to look up to you, but now you're a self absorb prince."
"I think it is best we don't talk anymore."
"Fine."
For the rest of the walk everyone was quiet except when Lole told Ripred to shut up. Gregor wished that everybody was happy and laughing, but it was hatred and loath between everybody. When they reached the first wall Howard motion for everybody to get up against the wall and whispered, "Everybody we have to change into their clothes so men to the west, women to the east."
Everyone agreed and went to the side they had to go to, the boys clothes were knicker-bonkers from the 17th century and had a button up brown shirt. The girls had a long skirt that went to the ankles and shirts that had long sleeves that cuffed at the bottom and had a gold lace at the bottom of the chest.
"Why do we have the wear these stupid clothes?" Lole said crossing her arms.
"Because we don't want to look like outcast and now you have to take your crown off and we have to cover your face because since you are Luxa's twin sister they will think you are her so you must wear this bonnet."
"Why couldn't I dress like guy I act like one?"
"Because you look like a girl."
"So what."
"Shut up twerp before I shut you up." Ripred said.
"Hey I can pull your tail again if you want."
Ripred just sat there and gave her a dirty look. When they got quiet Howard said, "Ripred go back to the fliers and get all of the food and water off of them and put them on the cliff then put all spears, daggers, and swords ready for battle and come back and stay high alright."
"Alright I will and I will see you in two hours." Ripred said politely.
"Yes I will blow the whistle and you and the fliers will dive down and grab us."
"Got it Run like the River Everybody."
"Fly you high Ripred the Gnawer." Howard said back.
As they waited for Ripred to turn out of sight they started to head for the wall and went through the gates like they were villagers of the city. They got even closer to the second wall and saw it the beautiful houses and streets made out of a shiny brown glass and it had a glaze to it that made it even shinier. When they got to the last wall were the castle was it looked just like Regalia's castle only different color.
Rapunzel went up to a villager and asked, "Um, accuse me would you mind telling me where the wedding is taking place?"
"Oh it is in the chapel over there it should be starting in about an hour." The old man said.
"Oh, thank you."
"You're welcome."
"Is there any restaurants here?" Lole asked Howard.
"No we have to go seat in the back of the chapel so people won't get suspicious about us."
"But I'm hungry."
"We are leaving in about two hours." Gregor said.
"So what."
"Is that your favorite word?"
"No it's not and it isn't a word it's a phrase."
"Whatever it is the same thing."
"You two be quiet we don't want to be seen."
When Howard yelled at them, they got quiet and stayed that way until people started to come and take their sits. Boots was wiggling around trying to get out of Rapunzel's grip, but it didn't work they could tell that she was getting tired and wanted to go play with Temp. She finally asked, "I go play Punzel."
"No Boots you have to stay."
"Why did we have to bring her here, she could get in the way?" Lole asked.
"Because we don't know when Lizzie and Boots have to come so we brought them along." Howard said.
All of a sudden, music started playing and old men looking a lot like ,Vikus, came to a podium and just stand there for a minute or so and the music stopped and he said, "Welcome friends to the marvelous wedding of Queen Luxa of Regalia and our victorious prince Vadim," he paused, "Now let us begin."
The music started to play again and a short kid about the size of Hazard walked out. He walked to where the old man was standing and bowed his head to the man. After he went to a side of the man, a different kind of music played and everybody stand up, Luxa came through the doors looking at the floor and had a mask on, and her dress was white, but had the gold lace like how Lole and Rapunzel's shirt had.
She slowly walked down the aisle and she lifted up her head right were all of her friends were sitting and she stared right at Gregor, and mouthed out, "Thank you."
He did not say anything he just bowed his head so no one knew that they knew each other. As Luxa reached the old man, she did the same as the short kid did. Everyone sat down and Howard looked up to see if Ripred was ready to dive and he got his whistle ready to blow. Before Howard blew the whistle the old man said, "May the bonds come."
When he said that a giant flies came down the aisle, which made Lole start shaking and making her get a sick look along her face. When they were half way down she could not hold it anymore she threw up all over the person in front of her, which made the old man scream, "What is the meaning of this?"
Before anyone could answer, Howard blew the whistle, Ripred dived down with Minerva and Bellona behind him, and they scooped up everyone. When Gregor and Lole hopped on Bellona, they flew over to Luxa and Lole grabbed her hand and swung her atop of Bellona. When Luxa got the mask off and Lole got the bonnet off the just stared at each other for a minute or so, when Lole broke the silence, "Not even a hello, see Gregor she hates me."
"No I don't hate you it… it's just I never knew I had a sister and a twin at that."
"Well you will once you find out what I have to do."
"Most likely not it's not like you have to become queen because you're elder then me."
"Well that is it; can you read minds, too?"
"NO! I can't and how dare you come down here and say you are queen."
"Do you want to be dead or be happy making out with your boy friend?"
"What do you mean?"
"Hello, army of flies and mean killer people chasing us."
"No, I see that, but what do you mean by that?"
"SHUT UP!"
"How dare you tell me to shut up?"
"Well I just did so be quiet."
"Hey Queenies shut up." Ripred yelled.
As they were getting closer to charted lands, they heard a rumble and stalactites started falling from the cavern ceiling. They knew what it was an earthquake and they flew as fast as they could through the labyrinth of rocks and falling rocks.
They thought the falling jagged rocks stopped falling, but they did not and Rapunzel, Boots, Lizzie, Temp, and Minerva all got hit by one of these rocks.
