ThReturn of the King – A Pair of Kings Fanfiction…

A/N – Yes! After nine months I am back!

Now; I know it's been a long time since I've updated this, and I apologize.
I had lost interest in this fic a long time ago, and between, starting college and everything going on there and summer time, I sort of just stopped…. Writing.
But, the good news is, that I'm back ya'll and ready to start hopefully writing again. I am planning on finishing this fic along with my other ones!

Well, until then, please forgive my writing for this chapter for it has been a while since I've writing for POK, so it might be a little rusty.
Anyway; I'm not sure where I was going with this fic back then, but I have an idea of it now. This fic will not be long, probably about ten chapters the most.
I plan on re-watching POK after I finishing re-reading my book series that I am reading now. So; I hope you all are having a wonderful holiday so far! :)

Without much more ranting lol, I sadly own nothing from POK otherwise Mitchell Musso would've stayed on and Adam Hicks would have been added, so all three could be together.
Enjoy!

Chapter 4

The Explanations & Discoveries

The rain had slowly started to stop down poring by the time Brady's Aunt and Uncle found their way to the shop. Upon entering; the two were greeted by some waitress named Courtney, who finished giving them more detail on what really had happened. Walking over to the girl with Brady; Nancy and Bill cleared their throats and watched as the girl smiled widely at them.

"Oh, thank goodness!" The girl had cried out as soon as she saw them.

Nancy and Bill eyed one another in thought. What was her name again? After all, the two only saw her once when they went to visit the island in threats of bringing the two boys home. Shaking their heads, Nancy and Bill thanked Courtney for all their help and indicated for the girl to bring Brady with her and follow them.

Leaving; Mikayla followed Brady's Aunt and Uncle to their car. Ignoring the other costumer's stares and whispers; they descended into the rain. Climbing into the back of the two adult's odd means of transportation, she continued to hold Brady close to her. After all, she just got him back, and she wasn't losing him again. Silence followed for a moment as Nancy and Bill climbed into their car and starting it….

"I'm sorry; but I don't remember your name." Nancy began awkwardly as she turned in the passenger side to look at the girl and her unconscious nephew. She smiled weakly…

"Mikayla." Mikayla replied as she smiled softly back and made eye contact with Nancy.

"Now sweetie; do you wanna go ahead and tell us what's really going on?" Nancy questioned as Mikayla frowned and tried to avoid eye contact now. This time, she not only watched Brady, but she looked out the window in thought and watched the city lights blur by. "Aren't you two supposed to be on that island? How did you end up here? And, what the heck happened to my nephew?" Nancy demanded to know as sweetly as she could. She may know the story that Mikayla had told the waitress, but she knew there was more too it then what Mikayla let on. After all, Nancy did know that island.

"Well, it started when Brady tried to run away…." Mikayla began as she bit her lip, waiting for their reactions.

"WHAT!?" Nancy and Bill questioned at the same time obviously shocked.

Taking a deep breath and clutching the steering wheel, Bill frowned. "Why would he try to leave?" Bill wondered as he stared ahead in concern and worry.

Mikayla sighed this time. "Because; he overheard me say some things that I regret saying." Mikayla explained as he felt guilt hit her in the pit of her stomach. She let her eyes travel down to Brady's face. "After that, he left a note that night to Boomer saying he didn't think he was fit to be a king because he was too immature. Boomer tried to go after him when he found the note but a storm stopped him. The castle was on lockdown and Boomer was freaking out the whole time. Finally; the storm stopped and we were able to see what damage it had done and possibly search for Brady. Luckily; it hadn't done much, but because there was still damage done, we couldn't leave to search for him. However, during all of this, the storm did wash up a boat into the Plaza. Inside the boat, were fellow people from a neighboring island. And, among those people, was their king, King Boz. It turs out, that Boz was Brady and Boomer's long-lost triplet brother – "Mikayla continued to explain as slowly and easily as she could so Nancy and Bill could understand and take all the information in. However, before she could continue, Nancy interrupted her.

"– Wait – "Nancy stated in surprise. "– You mean, Boomer and Brady aren't twins?" Nancy questioned as she raised an eyebrow at Mikayla who shook her head. "B-But, that's impossible! We've only always cared for the two! They've never once mentioned that they were a pair of triplets!" Nancy defended, while she still had trouble taking in all the information.

Mikayla sighed, "Because they didn't know. No one knew." Mikayla explained as she smiled softly. "Apparently all their documents were destroyed at birth because their parents lost Boz. It was too painful for them to remember their third child. So; they burned the documents and when the war came around, they sent Boomer and Brady away to be safe with you until they were ready to come back." Mikayla finished explaining as she began to run a hand through Brady's hair. "That's why Boomer and Brady ruled as co-kings. Because no one knew who was the older tw – uh, triplet." Mikayla finished with a sigh.

Nancy and Bill eyed one another only for Bill to re-focus on the road. "But, what about Brady? If he tried to leave the island, how did you find him?" Bill wondered as he turned a corner on the road.

"Apparently he never left the island." Mikayla explained once more as she felt tears come to her eyes. "He watched over Boomer, Boz, Candace and I this whole time. He wore a hood so we didn't know it was him. Hiding in the shadows; he only came out when we were in trouble and needed help." Mikayla continued as she smiled down at Brady. "I only found it was him when a group of tarantula people attacked us. I made Candace take Boomer and Boz back to the island so they were all safe. But, unfortantully for me, there were too many. Luckily though, that was when Brady hopped out from the trees and began to help me fight. However; more just kept showing up and eventually one of the tarantula people managed to knock him out. He fell into my arms and before I knew what was happening, everything changed around us and we ended up here in the city. How? I still don't know that answer. But, that's how we ended up here, in this situation…." Mikayla finally finished as she took in a deep breath and continued to stare out the window in thought.

"Well, that's certainly a story." Nancy muttered as she sighed and leaned back in her seat.
This time, she faced out the window and allowed the information that Mikayla had given her sink in.

Bill coughed slightly and then spoke up. "So, uh, since were mostly filled in, you are obviously welcomed to stay with us until we can find a way to contact your father. I'm sure he's worried. But for now; we must wait until we make contact and for Brady to wake up. But, he's not the only one who needs rest, you need it too. So; tomorrow we can talk about this and go from there. How does that sound?" Bill wondered as he watched Mikayla through his review mirror.

Mikayla smiled widely at the two adults. "That sounds like a wonderful plan! Thank you so much!" Mikayla finished as the car continued its long drive towards the Chicago apartment.
Things were finally starting to look up for both Mikayla and Brady…

….

Boomer, Boz and Candace followed Mason as he ran for the Tarantula territory in order to help find Mikayla before it was too late. For a while, the four ran through bushes and thick grass before making it too their destination. However; when they arrived, the scene was empty. Well, almost empty…

"This is Mikayla's sword." Boomer explained instantly recognizing it as he picked it up.

Worry appeared on everyone's faces. "Then – "Mason began as fear flooded inside him. "– Where's Mikayla?" Mason wondered as he clenched his fits and scanned the forest for any sings of her.

"Don't forget about the Hooded Figure." Candace stated in hopes of breaking the awkward tension. "He jumped out just as we left to help her." Candace explained with a sigh only for her to notice Boomer and Boz eyeing her with confusion. "I saw him before I rushed up to catch up with you guys." Candace replied suddenly with a "duh" expression showing on her face. At this, Boomer and Boz frowned at one another, they both could've sworn she was with them the whole time. Obviously; they were wrong about that thought. Candace broke both their silences with a sigh, "Either way; their both gone." Candance finished simply.

Mason growled slight and turned to face all three of them. "THIS IS WHY I TOLD YOU TO NOT GO LOOKING FOR SOMEONE OR SOMETHING WE KNEW NOTHING ABOUT! NOW MIKAYAL IS IN DANGER BECAUSE OF YOU! I HOPE ALL THREE OF YOU ARE HAPPY! WAS IT WORTH IT!? UGH, I'M SO SICK OF YOU NEVER LISTENING TO ME! I THOUGHT EVENTUALLY YOU WOULD HAVE MATURED BUT I GUESS I WAS WROUNG! YOUR ALL STILL CHILDISH AND SELFISH! EVEN I STILL DON'T KNOW HOW YOUR RELATED TO YOUR PARENTS LET ALONG FIT TO BE KING!" Mason yelled, letting all his frustration out. As soon as he said the words, he regretted them. Hearing Candace gasp in shock, Manson frowned when he looked at Boomer and Boz who both looked really angry and upset.

"HOW DARE YOU!" Boomer began as he stomped his foot and glared at Mason. "HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT! YOU HAVE NO RIGHT! YOU THINK WERE HAPPY THAT MIKAYLA IS GONE!? WERE NOT! I'M NOT! BECAUSE BELIVE ME I DON'T WANT TO LOSE SOMEONE ELSE I CARE ABOUT! MIKAYLA IS ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS! SHE WAS THERE WHEN BRADY LEFT ME AND NOW SHE MIGHT BE GONE TOO! SO, TRUST ME WHEN I SAY I'M NOT HAPPY THAT SHE'S GONE, IF ANYTHING I'M WORRIED, CONCERED AND MAD AT MYSELF! SO; HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT!" Boomer finished as he turned red in the face. Boz went to place a hand on his shoulder only for Boomer to shake it off and glare at him. Instantly; before Boz could say anything to help calm his brother down, Boomer stormed off by himself in order to go look for his missing friend and walk off his anger.

"You're majesty -!" Mason began once Boomer stormed off, only Boz interrupted him as well.

"– Just let him go." Boz explained as he and Mason eyed one another. "He just needs to cool down. I've learned that's its best to let him be alone, he'll come back when he's ready." Boz finished softly.

Mason eyed him oddly. "Y-You're not angry at me too?" Mason questioned in surprise.

Boz shook his head. "I'm not happy with you, but I'm not angry. I haven't been around long enough to know everything going on with all of you. So, I can't judge anyone too much." Boz finished simply.

"I'm sorry." Mason breathed softly. "I didn't mean anything I yelled. I'm just worried about Mikayla." Mason finished as he frowned. "She's all I have left." Mason finished as he felt tears threaten to fall.

Placing a hand on Mason's shoulder, Boz sighed. "That's not true. You have your older brother Jason. A-And, you have m-me and Boomer." Boz finished as he smiled at the 1/16th sasquatch.

Mason whipped a tear away before anyone could see it. "Thank you." Mason finished as he sighed and side hugged Boz.

Boz nodded. "Now; come on, let's go find Boomer and then find Mikayla." Boz finished as Mason nodded in agreement instantly.

So; the two walked on with Candace, in hopes of finding a more then calmed down Boomer. Eventually; the three found Boomer (who had been yelling at no one in particular) and began their search for Mikayla. However; their search didn't last for long since the sun had begun to set in the horizon and Mason demanded that they all return before it got dark.

"Which way was the castle again?" Boz questioned as he frowned in thought.

"That way." Mason and Boomer explained as they pointed in the same direction.

"Oh boy – "Candace stated as she sighed. " – More walking." Candace stated with full sarcasm as she began to try and catch her breath. After all, they have been walking around for a long time.
"Can we at least take a break first? My legs are starting to kill me." Candace finished as she leaned her hands on her knees and began to take deep breaths.

"Well, maybe you shouldn't have worn those heels." Boomer suggested as he indicated to them. "You did know we coming out here to search for her after all." Boomer finished with a know-it-all tone in his voice.

Sending Boomer, a playful death glare Candace retaliated. "Hey! Beauty hurts!" Candace defended as she bent down, took off her heels and leaned back against the forest wall. However, what she believed was forest wall, was not. For, as soon as she leaned back, the blended in background broke and she fell through with a scream. While screaming, she landed on the ground hard and caught her friends attention.

"Woah! – "Boz stated as he noticed the scene in amazement. "– Check that out Boom! A secret hideout!" Boz declared with slight excitement.
"Where do you think it leads?" Boz wondered as he eyed Boomer who stared at the odd cave entrance with interest.

Boomer finally shrugged. "I don't know. But, let's figure it out." Boomer finished with a smile at the thought of a new adventure.

"Right! – "Boz stated in agreement as he snapped his fingers and grinned. Then, a thought came to his mind. "– But, shouldn't we make sure Candace is alright first?"
Boz questioned as he and Boomer eyed one another in thought and concern, only to look back at their friend and then at one another.

"Yes! We should." Boomer finished simply as he and Boz jumped forward to help their friend up.

While they moved forward to help their friend, Mason stayed behind and shook his head. Sometimes, those boys really got on his nerves and concerned him deeply. But, even if he wouldn't admit it out loud, just like Boz said, they were still apart of his family. With a sigh, Mason moved forward and followed Boomer, Boz and Candace into their newest discovery. While following; he mumbled, "Here we go again…."
