Chapter 22: A Forgotten Promise
After finishing his training with Grace everyone decided to follow Grace's instructions and headed to the Guardian Kingdom in order to learn the whereabouts of the End Portals pieces …
"So the Guardian Kingdom, that place is built above the ocean at least part of it is though …" Case said, "But it's quite exciting since I've never been there before!" Snowy exclaimed. "The Guardian Kingdom is amazing; since I've gone through errands that led there I've seen a lot." Chrome said, "Really, like what?" Stella asked, "Sorry no spoilers." Chrome teased, "Hmph! No fair." Stella whined.
"That place I feel like I've forgotten something about it, something important." Xander pondered, "Oh it's probably some treaty or meeting on how to protect Minecraftia." Cupa said. "Or maybe a punishment likes feeding him to the sharks." Motor thought, "C'mon Motor don't be so rude what could he have done that they could have never forgotten?" Andr said."Look everyone we're nearing the ocean!" Case excitedly shouted, "I can see a boardwalk." Cath pointed. "Looks like we're gonna arrive early." Stella said, "Wow, it's magnificent!" Xander said amazed.
Everyone stood in front of the boardwalk looking into the distance revealing a huge castle and buildings surrounded by glass. Everyone began walking towards the Kingdom was greeted by two Guardian Soldiers carrying each a trident …
"Welcome to the Guardian Kingdom." One of the soldiers greeted, "I hope you enjoy your visit." Another guard greeted. "Thank you very much, we look forward to it." Xander replied as his pendant falls from inside his shirt, "Hmm? What is that?" The guard asked, "Oh! It's nothing just a pendant." Xander replied as they entered."Do you think it's one of them?" the guard asks, "Could be let's report this to the Chief!" the other answers as they contacted the chief.
"Wow! This place is filled with all sorts' treasure!" Xander said, "You're right from pearls, to jewels to delicious food!" Cupa squeals. "Well anyways, where's the castle?" Case asked, "I don't know but I do know it's not the one on top." Chrome explains.
"We can take you there." A voice answers, "What?! who's there?!" Xander asks. "Sorry for the intrusion but I'm Ajax, Chief of the Royal Guards the King would like to have a word with you." Ajax explains, "Xander what did you do?" Case asked, "Nothing I swear!" Xander said, "Come with us." Ajax orders the guards to escort everyone to the castle at the sea bed.
"I told you Xander did something they wouldn't forget!" Motor said, "Motor be quiet." Andr scolds. "What could I possibly done?" Xander asks, "Maybe not you but your past self." Case said. "Well anyway we can't do anything now since we're almost in the King's Throne room." Chrome explains. "We'll just hope for the best that this doesn't turn out to be your death sentence." Stella adds, "Oh c'mon I wouldn't do something wrong, right?" Xander asks as everyone turns away and whistles.
After a more minutes of walking we finally arrived at the Throne Room where the King was waiting patiently, as we entered the King addressed the guards to leave the room once they left he stood up and said …
"So you're the ones the guards told me about." The King exclaimed "The reason I called you here was due to this friend of yours.". "Xander what did you really do?!" Stella asked, "I don't know!" Xander replied. "Did you say his name is Xander?" The King asked, "Yes your highness his name his Xander Crux." Chrome answered politely. "Xander Andujare Crux …" The King said, "Is that my full name?" Xander asked, "Guess so."Snowy replied.
"I hereby announce you're …" The King said, "No! I won't allow you to kill him, not by going through me first!" Cupa announced as she went in front of Xander. "What are do you mean I wouldn't kill him; his is a guest." The King said, "Wha-what?!" Cupa said astonished. "I wasn't gonna kill him, I'm just welcoming him back." The King replied.
"WHAAAT?!" Everyone shouted(besides Chrome). "But why did you look so serious?" Case asked, "Oh, that's just how I always look." The King replied "It's good to see you Xander when we heard that you we're attacked by Herobrine we all thought no one would be left but it seems you're still here so we still have hope.". "Umm, thank you your highness." Xander answered politely.
"By the way someone was excited to see and know your alive, Lulu!" The King called as a girl with green hair, red eyes, and was wearing a green dress with orange frills and one green stocking came bursting through the room. "Xander!" the girl screamed as she hugged Xander tightly, "Wha-whats going on?!" Xander asks, "Xander!" Cupa says with an irritated smile.
"Oh, how I missed you Xander!" Lulu said, "Who are you?" Xander asked. "Stop playing games Xander, it's me Lulu don't you remember?" Lulu said, "Umm …" Xander responded. "Well maybe this will remind you." Lulu said as she approached Xander and kissed him on the lips "It's me Lulu your fiancé don't you remember?".
"Fiancé?!" Cupa responded "I'm his fiancé!" "And who might you be?" Lulu asked, "I'm Cupa, Princess of the Creeper Kingdom." Cupa answered, "Well I'm Lulu, Princess of the Guardian Kingdom and to make it clear he's mine!" Lulu stated, "No, he's mine!" Cupa replied. "Is it just me or do I see sparks flying." Case said, "What the heck is going on?" Stella asked.
"Xander would you kindly explain to me what's happening?" The King asked, "Well you see your highness I lost all my memory after Herobrine chased me off a cliff and right now these are the only memories I have." Xander explained. "Well this is rather surprising and frustrating for I thought that you still knew but it seems you have another fiancé which is from the Creeper Kingdom, I may have to talk with the Creeper King and try to sort things out, since you have two fiancés but do stay a while if you'd like." The King said as he left the room.
"This is rather confusing." Snowy exclaimed, "You got that right." Case agreed. "So it seems you're a stud yourself."Chrome teased, "It's not like I remembered any of this!" Xander replied. "I can't believe my Xander would forget me and like this girl instead." Lulu said, "Sadly his past self is gone and only the present is available." Cupa announced. "Now girls calm down a bit." Xander said, "How can we if she is your fiancé!" Both answered. "Can you at least tell us your side of the story?" Andr asked, "Gladly."Lulu replied.
"You see we the Guardians are allied with the Gargantians for a long period of time and through those years the leaders began to be friends more than allies, Xander's father always came to see my dad and often brought along Xander with him, we eventually became fond of each other and became friends we grew up together until Xander asked me to be his fiancé and I gladly accepted his proposal our parent's we're okay with it and we continued dating then one month after they we're attacked by Herobrine and since then I began to worry that he might be gone but now he's here we can finally be together but sadly he lost his memories and then her …" Lulu explained.
"Sounds like a tragic love story." Motor said, "Xander you heartbreaker." Chrome teased. "Can we at least focus on why we're here?" Xander stated, "Huh? What do you mean?" Lulu asked. "Look the reason we came here is to ask you about the remaining parts of the End Portal and its locations." Xander explained, "Really?" Lulu asked. "Yes, do you know where it might be?" Xander asked, "Sorry but only dad knows about it, so while he's gone want me to show you around?" Lulu said.
"Sure I guess that sounds fine." Xander said, "Okay follow me!" Lulu said as she held onto Xander's arm and dragged him with the others and an irritated Cupa following them. "This is so annoying." Cupa mumbled, "Oh c'mon Cupa at least let them bond even if Xander doesn't remember anything." Stella reassured, "I just hope she doesn't try any funny business." Cupa pouted, "This is the first time I've seen you like this Cupa, you must be really pissed I mean you look like you're about to explode." Andr said.
"I am …" Cupa answered as he began to turn red, "Cu-Cupa calm down, and take it easy." Snowy said nervously, "Yeah chill." Case said. "Xander, Cupa's about to blow the roof off this place." Motor stated, "What?!" Xander replied as he looked back seeing Cupa about to ignite "I have to defuse her!" "How do you defuse her?" Stella asked
As I saw Cupa reddening I dashed towards her letting go of Lulu's grip as I only knew how to defuse her but it's going to hurt a lot. I reached for her and planted my mouth on hers and sucked the heat out of her body making my tongue burn and my mouth smoke …
"Oww! That's really hot I need water!" Xander exclaimed as he put his hand in front of his mouth and blasted water inside. "Are you okay Xander?" Cupa asked as she came to her senses, "It's nothing just try not to blow a fuse next time, okay?" Xander says as he pats her on the head. "Xander, why'd you have to kiss her in front of me?!" Lulu furiously stated, "Oh? Are you jealous?" Cupa teased, "I am not!" Lulu replies."It's kinda like Stella and Grace, right?" Andr said, "You're definitely right on that one." Snowy agrees.
They continued fighting for a while until it was time to continue the tour again, Lulu showed us every corner of the castle it was filled with a lot of undersea designs, the library is huge and the brewing room was also astounding after that everyone was then summoned by the Guardian King once more …
"Xander Andujare Crux, The Creeper King and I had a little chat about on how to deal with this situation and we've come with a proper conclusion." The King announced, "So what is it your highness?" Xander asks hesitantly. "We have come to a decision of seduction!" The King announced, "Say what now?" Xander asks confused as everyone besides Cupa and Lulu giggles (While Chrome laughs his ass off).
"You heard me right, young lad in order for one of them to be your fiancé they'll have to woo you over to their side and whoever wins will become your fiancé." The King stated, "This is going wrong on so many levels!" Xander thought. "And to make things fair have this!" The King said as he threw a splash potion bottle at me. "Xander!" everyone shouted.
At that moment I began to remember everything about Lulu and our relation but I also still have my present memories …
"What the hell did you do?!" Xander asks in confusion, "It's just a rare hard to make splash potion with the effects that makes you remember forgotten love." The King stated. "Is there even such thing, this is crazy I've never heard of something like that plus it's too good to be true for me to remember all of this!" Xander thought. "Looks like we're now even." Lulu smirked, "That's cheating!" Cupa stated.
"No it's not your Father agreed to this terms so it wouldn't be unfair." The King stated, "Well I guess that's right so good luck Cupa!" Snowy said. "Before this starts Guardian King do you know the whereabouts of the End Portals pieces?" Xander asks, "I believe I do one is down in our undersea temple, I'll give it to you tomorrow for we need to remove seal first it may take some time so stay a night here in the castle, okay?" The King answered. "Thank you very much your highness I'll be waiting tomorrow." Xander replies.
After talking with the Guardian King we we're escorted to our rooms, the room was really beautiful it was decorated with pearls and shells. I opened one of the drawers and saw a photo album, I looked into it and saw pictures of Lulu and I as kids it brought back memories and feelings but now I have two feelings inside me. I became tired of all this emotion and thinking that I fell asleep, the moment I realized it was morning and something was hitting my face so I grabbed it then …
"Ahh~" a voice moaned, "Wha-what?! what is this?" Xander exclaims as he looks down to see Lulu sleeping next to him in her underwear. "What's happening?!" Xander exclaimed as he felt his other hand touch something else, looking to the other side Cupa was under the same circumstances, "What the heck!" Xander shouted as he noticed his hand is placed near her "magical place". "I'm so screwed! Why do I always get into this kind of mess?!" Xander thought to himself in panic.
"Xander what's wrong?!" Stella asks as she barged into the room seeing Xander under that circumstance, "Stella what's wrong?" Chrome asked as he sees the reason, "Stella don't look it'll give you cancer!" Chrome teased as he pulls Stella away and closes the door. "Why does this have to happen to me?" Xander sighs and wakes the two up tells them to get dressed and gave them a scolding, "I'm pretty sure those two are still kids." Xander sighs as went to the Throne room.
"Xander Good Morning! Did you sleep well?" the King asked, "Was it you who told Lulu to sleep with me in her underwear?" Xander asks, "What could you possibly be implementing here?" The King replies, "Anyways are the pieces with you already?" Xander asks, "Yes but why in a hurry?" The King asked, "Because, I want to stop Herobrine once and for all!" Xander answers seriously, "Hmm, in that case the last pieces are in the dessert biome, I'll send the mages to unlock the seal so sit tight here okay?" the King said.
As I receive the pieces I go and tell everyone the situation and decided to leave as soon as the seals been undone along with Lulu. We're almost done collecting the pieces and once they have been gathered we can finally reassure they're safe and we can finally stop Herobrine's plan and restore the peace back to Minecraftia …
