Thank you xxfallenangelmayxx for reviewing again! It helps me write knowing I'm on the right track! :)
Right now I'm having lunch, a tuna sandwich. It turns out Sky lied about having to hunt, I asked my Father. He wasn't happy that Sky lied to me and he ordered her to be punished. She was taken away about half an hour ago and still isn't back. My father said he will not heal her so I will see her tomorrow in the morning. I am not looking forward to that she is going to hate me… even more than she already does. Training this morning was horrible! Sky was making me fight her! "It's to show me what you can do" she said. She was using her gifts both of them. she can also turn herself invisible from untrained Humix's. Humix is what we are called, Daniel told me on the way to The Kings room.
So Sky turned herself invisible to me and started getting her poison all over me. I tried to summon my power but I couldn't, I could feel it but I couldn't manifest it. I managed to get it to the surface of my body. Sky got burnt slightly every time she touched me. It wasn't enough to get her to stop though. I didn't know this until Daniel pointed it out. I was in too much pain to take note of much.
After I collapsed from the pain Daniel was allowed to stop Sky. He wasn't allowed before as she was training me to manifest my power, but when I collapsed she has to stop because if not I could die.
By the time Daniel got to me I was covered head to toe in blisters and in so much pain I couldn't walk, so he had to carry me to my father. When we got there my father was horrified! He healed me the second he saw me. He is still very annoyed at Sky which is why he refuses to heal her after her punishment.
It has been an hour and she still isn't back! I have more training now but with Father…
"Okay Lola. What do you know about us? Remember to think before you speak." He is starting with theory because he wants to make sure I understand what we are doing and why.
"There were eight elders of phoenix and one king. The king was and always will be you, unless you get killed…" I trailed off; worried I had hit a sensitive topic. He smiled.
"That's good. Carry on." Well at least I didn't make him angry; don't want to end up like Sky…
"There are now only seven elders because one betrayed you and is now causing war. I am the one in the prophecy, so I am the one who is destined to end this three thousand year battle by destroying Jason the betrayer…" I hope I got everything. Well he is still smiling and his eyes are blue.
"Well done Lola! You managed to get all of that information from just listening to your instinct! I am very proud of you well done! Now do you have any questions?" I nodded, "Go ahead and ask them." He is in a very good mood.
"Why is courting banned until we are twenty six?" My father frowned at this.
"I think you misunderstood, I meant that you are banned from courting until you are twenty six. The age other Humix are allowed to start courting is up to their fathers. The law I passes a two thousand years ago is that Humix are only allowed to start courting when their fathers think they are of age but all are allowed to start by the age of twenty three, the only exception is The kings daughter, you." WHAT! THAT IS SO UNFAIR!
"That's not fair! Why does everyone else get to date by the time they are twenty three and I have to wait until I'm twenty six! I hate you!" I am so blinded by rage I forgot to think about what I was saying… until I am being pulled by my hair down the corridor to the punishment room. "Sorry! I am so sorry! I forgot to think before I spoke! Please! I will never do it again!" I am so scared. I'm crying so hard the tears are streaming down my face. I know I'm not getting out of it this time.
"I know you will not do it again, because you will not forget the punishment. I see now I may have made a mistake not punishing you yesterday. I will not make that mistake again." He let my hair go and I fell to the floor. "Stand up!" He ordered. He is not happy at all. I stood. I looked into his eyes and saw they were red and he had gone back to having his phoenix head. His eyes held anger, disappointment but also sadness. I raise my hand and its shaking. "What now, Lola?" I have really disappointed him I can tell.
"W…Why do your eyes show sadness in them?" I ask him softly. He looked taken aback but answers still.
"I am sad because I have to punish you, I am also sad because you hate me now and you're going to hate me even more when I am finished." He thought I meant that?
"I don't hate you, I know I said I did but I was just annoyed and I wasn't thinking. I am sorry, please forgive me Father." I know it will not help me get out of punishment but I can see it made him less sad.
"Come on, the sooner I get this over with the sooner I can heal you." I walk silently next to him as we turn the corner to the door Daniel was guarding yesterday. Another man was guarding it today.
"Good afternoon your highness, your daughter in trouble again?" I don't like this man; his eyes hold nothing but hatred.
"Good afternoon to you too Roland, yes Lola is in trouble. This will be her first punishment." Uh oh this guy is going to lie about me. I can see it in his eyes.
"Well it looks like Lola here doesn't benefit from being let off of punishment twice. I gave her another chance earlier when she tried to kiss me, she will deny it of course. She tried to kiss me I pulled her off me and told her she will get punishment for it… she begged me not to tell you, I regret not telling you now. I apologise." WHAT?! I have never seen him before! Don't shout Lola, you are in enough trouble already.
"Lola. Is this true? You tried to kiss Roland even though you know you're not allowed to court until you are twenty six? That's why you asked isn't it? Answer me!" I. AM. SO. DEAD.
"No, I haven't seen him before. I wouldn't go against you Father honest! I only asked because I was curious! He is lying! Can't you see it in his eyes?" I am desperate.
"Oh Lola, when will you learn? You do not lie to the king. And using your gift to lie is a very bad thing." My gift? Seeing people's emotions and what they are like is a gift? My Father is feeling furious I actually feel it radiating from him. Roland has just made him think I have lied to him.
My father grabs me by my hair and pulls me through the door and down the blood splattered corridor. He opens the door to 'The Punishment Room' pulls me in and closes the door. I look around and gasp.
(AN/ and I am going to stop here. I am evil! Hahaha I will start the punishment chapter, I just wanted to get this up. Btw Roland is pure evil in this. Please review! :D)
