Chapter 7, The first Day, get use to it.
Because we had just go there. We were given the rest of the day to relax. The next morning we enter the throne room, and only Maximillian and Alicia where there. So I asked, "Where's Maxor and Alicia." Maximillian replies, "They have a lot of work. We are 4 rulers for two Kingdoms. They had to return home to protect it. Their kids are still here. Robert, go down the hall to my left and the 20 doors down on your right will be where the kids are." I replied to him, "I understand." Before I left Jacob stopped me. And took something out of his pocket and handed it to me. It was an ear wig. I nodded my head as I left. As I made my way down Jacob purposed an Idea to the King and Queen. He said, "If you two have to leave the castle I have an Idea. Sapphire can stay close two you and I can be at a distance surveying the area. If I see anything's off, I can tell you." Alicia asked, "How will we communicate." Jacob pulls out another ear wig, "I will give this ear wig to Sapphire and see can tell you what I see and whatever you instruct to me she will tell me and I can get to it." Maximillian replied, "It's a good plan. How will you stay out of sight?" Jacob says, "I can use the roof tops." Maximillian thought for a moment and then said, "Ok. I will give it a test run. War Claw troops found a way in. We will use this as an opportunity to test it. We and Alicia leave at 3:00 this afternoon. Be ready then." Jacob and Sapphire said, "Understood." While they prepare I was doing something else. Once I found the room I entered and they were all playing and Rosie was sitting and drinking tea. I looked around and I saw that Sally wasn't playing. She was reading. She is 3 and she is reading. I bet she can't even read half the words in the book she has because the books says for readers 8 or older. So I walk up to her and ask, "Sally why aren't you playing." Sally replies, "I want to read." So I said, "I know your lying. Let me guess none of games they want to play you want to play." She was silent for a second and then said, "Yes." With that I stood and found a box with Chess board and peace's. So I brought it over to Sally. I said, "Maybe this is more of the type of games you would like." So in front of her I set the board and set up all the pieces and then said, "It's called chess. It is a board game. But this is also one you must think though. Each peace does different things. Pawns wile the most numerous peace's, they can only attack the two squares across left or right. The Knight can only move in an L shape for 3 spaces and the one you want to attack must be on that spot. Next is the Bishop. Bishops can only move in a diagonal patter and you can move it as far as you what unless you reach an enemy or get to the edge of the board. Now the Rook. It can move like the bishop except it can move only left right forward or backwards. The Queen is the peace the can move the most. It can do what both the Rook and the Bishop can. Finally is the King. The King can only move one square all around it. The King is also the piece you must protect. If the opponent says check you must move the King out of danger. But if it is Checkmate. You lose. Also if you lose one of your other pieces a pawn that makes it to the other side of the board can become a one of your lost pieces. You understand." Sally replies, "I kind of get it." She was a little confused so I said, "Don't worry. I will help you out as the game goes on." As me and Sally played Jacob and Sapphire where about to go out with King and Queen Acorn. Just like Jacob suggested he stayed to the roofs. As King and Queen were heading to the Market place with Sapphire close behind. As well as one of the Guards, Armand D'Coolette. As the where walking, Jacob saw from the roofs a woman in a hooded outfit following behind them. He presses a button on the ear wig and says, "Sapphire, can you hear me?" She replies, "Loud and clear. What's going on?" Jacob tells her what she saw and she told Maximillian and he said, "Have Jacob intercept her. Armand you call some guards to pick here up." Sapphire nodded and told Jacob. When Jacob cut her off he said to her, "Nice day for a walk isn't it." The woman replies, "Yes it is. I was just heading to the Market to get some food." Jacob says, "I doubt that. What's under the cloak?" She replies, "Nothing of your concern." Two guards walk up. One asks, "She the one." Jacob nodes and grabs her. She goes along calmly. Witch Jacob saw as odd. But thought very little of it and caught back up with the others. They continued on for a bit and got to the Market. In one of the shops he noticed it has old but sharpened weapons. He said, "Sapphire one of the shops has sharp but really old weapons." There was quite for a second then she replies, "The King said that most shops will do that if they want to get big collectors in his shop." Jacob then asks, "Don't you think it's kind of strange we may be going into war if not in war already and the weapons are sharpened?" Sapphire says, "The King sees your point. He will send some guard over to the shop. They will take a look." Jacob replies, "Ok." A few minutes later while the King and Queen and Sapphire are in a shop Jacob hears fighting. Jacob says, "I am going to go check something out." Sapphire replies, "The king said, we will be here for a bit. Go ahead." Jacob made his way over to where the yelling was from. And sees a shop owner and another person shouting at each other. Jacob jumps down, separates the two men.
