The New Enemy Chapter 5

"Be safe, Brady." his aunt kissed the top of his head.

"I will, Aunt Nancy." Brady smiled at his uncle who gave him a pat on the back.

"Do what you gonna do." with that Brady gave his aunt and uncle one final hug then jumped into the basket.

"Oh and remember Brady, the first step to greatness is believing in yourself." His aunt quote. Brady's mind flashed to when Mason said it and imagine how his dad would said it
"You know that?" The runaway king asked surprised at his aunt, his mother's sister knew what his father said.

"Of course I do! Your father was a great king, Brady. You and Boomer will be too." Aunt Nancy's words sank in Brady's mind. A smile glued to his face as he nodded and started to put more fire to the balloon.

"Bye! Aunt Nancy! Uncle Bill!" Brady waved as the hot air balloon floated up and his almost like parents waved back.

"I'm sorry my king but you can't leave your room."

"Why not?" Boomer stared at his friend who blocked the door.

"Because you need to rest." Mikayla pointed to King Boomer's bed.

"Why? Don't you trust the Shaman?" Boomer asked and Mikayla's face went blank.

"No, yes, but I need to you to go to sleep. My dad's orders." Mikayla lied again and pointed to his bed as the king slumped his shoulders and walked to his bed.

"Go to sleep, your highness." Mikayla watched as her king closed his eyes and mumbled under his breath.

Mikayla slowly walked out of the room, leaving the door open so she could an eye on him. She really hate lying but she knows it has to be done. For the sake of her country.
Guards walked by, ignoring Mikayla since she was the head guard. The head guard waited for the other ones to leave and watched. What are they up to? Ugh Mikayla, trust no one. But you need to keep Boomer in his room.

Mikayla fought with herself and scowled. She was fighting with herself. What is going on with her?

"Hey Mikayla." Boz waved and walked into his room.

"Hi King Boz." Mikayla greeted back. a light bub went off in her head.

"King Boz?" Mikayla walked into the boys room.

"What's up?"

"I need you to watch Boomer. He has to stay in this room and sleep ok?" She slowly said like she was talking to a dog or a baby.

"ok." Boz shrugged his shoulders and jumped on his bed, falling asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow.
One minute of waiting if Boz would actually go to sleep and stay in the room, Mikayla slowly walked out of the room and took off once she was completely out of the room.

Her mind raced as she slid to stop in front of Roger. Who was picking his nose.

"Roger!" Mikayla yelled at the guard, she already didn't trust him. Well, she didn't even trust him to carry that weapon.

"listen to me very carefully." Her voice was slow like she was talking to a 2 year old.
Roger pulled his finger out of his nose and nodded.

"Round up all the guards but my dad, and take away their weapons alright?" Mikayla nodded, making Roger smile and copy her.

"good. When you got all the guards and their weapons, tell them to relax, go to sleep." Mikayla kept saying ever word so slow that she might actually fall asleep.

"ok." Roger skipped away, putting his finger back in his nose, while the head guard sigh and walked away to find her father.
