Chapter 6: The Royal Introduction

After hearing the knock, the Galra Paladin look up and saw the girl from before. The girl has caramel-blond hair that is pulled back in a bun, with leftover hair gently flowing over her left shoulder. Roses are clipped around her head. Her skin is fair peach, and her eyes are in the color of an orchid-pale rose mix. She wears a white and silver dress with a long silver sash around her waist that flows right behind her. A pair of gold bracelets and a pair of silver bracelets around her upper arm to hold silver glimmer fabric. Behind the girl were four wings with silver painted at the tip of winged feathers. The wings are her actual wings that are disguised as a bow. The girl is wearing a mask that is decorated with silver edges and a turquoise gem at the middle of her forehead. The girl is wearing a white choker with an amulet that is made of silver, carved in a shape of a swan, and a dove with a ruby in the middle of it. Finally, the girl is also wearing a pair of silver high heels. And now, she is holding a book in her arms with the scent of rose still attached to her. The Galra Paladin felt his ears burning hot as he saw her kind face with a pair of gentle pale rose-orchid mix staring at him. "Good afternoon," the girl spoke gently.
"Good afternoon, your highness." The doctor bowed his head.
The Galra Paladin quickly turned to the doctor with a shocked face. Suddenly, he noticed that the doctor has finished unwrapping his leg. The doctor look at the left leg and saw a scab-like wound that is close to being sewed up. Healing slowly and turning into a scar.
"Your leg is healing well," said the doctor. "Your bone has fully mended and healed, but the meat of your calf will take time to heal. I'm putting some ointment on it, so it can heal faster and bring no infections."
"Okay," the Galra Paladin tipped his right ear. "But…"
"Hmm?" The doctor raised a brow.
"The way that I was told," the Galra Paladin stuttered. "I thought that Celestial Beings are supposed to heal others by using their powers."
"We do," the girl nodded. "But my uncle, who is King here. He is against using our powers to heal newcomers such as you are, so we only can do the basic treatment that you are aware of."
"Oh," the Galra Paladin exclaimed. So, they know basic medicine, huh? The Galra Paladin wondered as he felt relieved. Sound like they are like us, but more advanced than the people of other planets that I know of.
"That won't bother as much, will it?" the doctor asked him.
"No, not at all." The Galra Paladin shook his head, "I was just curious."
The doctor smiled as he is finishing putting the ointment on the Galra Paladin's leg and wrapped a fresh bandage around it.
"Aww, the purple kitty is interested in how we use one of our powers to heal others." A woman's voice spoke, "How very sweet."
"Huh? Who…?" the Galra Paladin nearly jumped as he looked around.
The doctor sighed as he rubbed against his temple.
"Sister," the girl firmly spoke. "Get your Shadowy-Astral Wings out here, right now. Before I could use my powers to light up the room."
"Alright, alright. Sheesh," the female voice surrounded. Suddenly, another girl who has the scent of chocolate appeared; walking out of the wall with a shadow behind her. The Galra Paladin examines her. The girl is a few years older than her. The girl has long brown hair, with a four-winged hair clip with galaxy mix color at the tips; that is holding some back from her face and the length of her hair is passed her butt, about close to her knees. Her skin is darker peach than Violet's skin. Her eyes are white with dark mascara and black eyeliner. She wears a blood-red shirt that is revealing her shoulders and stomach. But the length of the sleeve has stopped at the bottom of her elbows. She also wears a black belt, short blue-jean shorts, and a pair of black high heel boots. And a black choker with a wing that also has a galaxy color mix to the tips of the feathers and a ruby, dangling at the bottom. As he has finished examining her, he watches the girl has walked towards the girl who has the scent of roses. "You don't have to be so demanding when I do that," the girl raised a brow.
"As long as you stop being sneaky, I will also do it as well." The girl with the scent of roses crossed her arms.
"Fair enough," the girl who smelled like chocolate sighed. The Galra Paladin was tempted to hiss at the girl who smelled like chocolate, but he bit his tongue to keep that thought to himself.
"Oh, where are our manners?" The girl who smelled like roses smiled as she turned to the Galra Paladin, "You must be hungry and curious about all of this, aren't you?"
The Galra Paladin's ears pricked up, "Umm…a little," the Galra Paladin shrugged.
"Well, then. I'll go get something for you to eat, while these two will explain to you what has happened in these last three days." The doctor spoke as he finished bandaging the Galra Paladin's leg.
"Wait what? Three days?" the Galra Paladin jumped, almost making himself fall off his bed.
"That's how long you've been out," the doctor replied.
That long, huh? The Galra Paladin thought. Guess that I hit my head more serious than I thought. The Galra Paladin mentally rubbed his head.
"Thank you, Dr. Albert." The girl who smelled like roses smiled, "We'll take it from here."
"As you wish, your highness." Dr. Albert bowed, "I'll be back with some food for him to eat, before continuing examining him."
"Very well," the girl nodded as she dismissed Dr. Albert.

When the girls and the Galra Paladin are now left alone in the room. The girl who smelled like roses turned to him. "While we are waiting," she spoke gently. "Let's introduce ourselves, so we could get comfortable with each other."
"Alright," the Galra Paladin nodded.
"Great, I'll start." The girl who smelled like chocolate smiled.
"Sister," the one who smelled like roses grumbled. Suddenly, the girl's eyes turned red and black.
The Galra Paladin jumped.
"My name is Twilight," she nearly began to crawl towards him. "Princess of Celestial Beings...and...I am your worst nightmare that you ever met."
The Galra Paladin jumped in horror as she got closer to him. Suddenly, a light-colored blue surrounded her. Twilight's eyes quickly turned red and black to full indigo as she has been lifted in the air.
"Sister, you know better." The girl crossed her arms, "Why can't you restrain yourself instead of creeping others out of their skin?"
"Sheesh, sorry." Twilight crossed her arms as her eyes turned orange and white. "I was trying to have some fun."
"By scaring him?" The girl scolded Twilight firmly.
"Maybe," Twilight admitted.
The girl sighed, "Forgive her, she is the Celestial Being that is a Bearer of Five Wings. Who is actual a Celestial Being that is an Eye Shifter; the eyes change colors to show what mood they are in. She is also the Controller of Shadows, you already witnessed that she stepped out of the wall by using shadows as an example. She is also a Royal One, a rebel Princess and she is the eldest Royal Sibling in the family."
"Now that makes more sense," the Galra Paladin understood.
"Sheesh, thanks for the introduction sis." Twilight grumbled as her eyes showed red and orange, "Now since that is done. Would you mind putting me down, now?"
The girl nodded as she waved her hand. The glow gently put her sister back onto her feet.
"Thanks," she grumbled as her eyes turned lighter red and orange.
The girl smiled, "And I am Princess Violet," she curtsied to the Galra Paladin. "The four-winged Celestial Being, The Universal Being to be exact. A Royal One, Second Born Princess of Celestial Beings, heiress of Heaven."
"Heaven?!" the Galra Paladin jumped, "Are you saying that...?"
"Yup," Twilight nodded. "The planet that you crashed on is called Heaven."
"But do not worry, you're not dead." Violet spoke to him calmly, "You're very much alive, so there's no need to panic."
"So...how...?" the Galra Paladin asked as he almost lost his train of thought.
"You see," Twilight spoke as her eyes turned rainbow color. "Whoever or whatever being has died has reincarnated here before finding somewhere else to be reborn and have a new life. With no memories. With new identities. Everything."
"But it only works if your soul is good or has been redeemed," Violet added. "You are welcome to live here."
"What happens to the soul that is not welcome here?" the Galra Paladin asked, curiously.
"If their soul is dark, bad, or evil." Violet answered, "Their soul will be sent to the Pit."
"Pit?" the Galra Paladin's ear tilted.
"A sister planet that is right next door," Twilight answered. "In other words, it was also known as the Underworld or Hell."
"You're kidding, right?" The Galra Paladin flattens his ears in shock.
"Wish," Twilight smirked as her eyes turned pale lavender.
The Galra Paladin gulped.
"But enough about that," Violet shook her head. "We have finished introducing ourselves, and you already have met Dr. Albert. Can you tell us your name?"
"Uh, sure." The Galra Paladin nodded, "My name is Keith, Keith Kogane."
Violet nearly jumped. Kogane? Violet thought. That name...it sounds so...familiar.
"Keith?" Twilight asked as her eyes turned light brown, "What type of name is that? It sounds like a human name from Tau'ri, in other words." Her eyes switched to rainbow color, "Terra or Earth if you called it. But, defiantly know that it is not a Galra name."
"Yeah, about that." Keith rubbed the back of his neck.
"Huh?" Twilight's eyes turned to light brown.
"I wasn't born in the Galra community to be exact," Keith began to explain.
"What?" Twilight's eyes widened as they turned bright indigo.
"I was born from a Galra but raised on Earth," Keith admitted.
"You're from the Earth?" Twilight's eyes turned to full indigo.
"Now there's a shocker," Violet smiled.
"Yeah, so I was known as a hybrid." Keith scratched the back of his head, "Half Earthling and half Galra."
"So, were you born with this look or something else?" Twilight asked as her eyes showed indigo and hazel brown.
"I was born to look like...something else," Keith sighed. I don't know if they would believe me that I was human and all. Keith thought.
"Oh great," Twilight's *animated* sweat dropped.
"Sister," Violet muttered.
"Umm, if you don't mind about changing the subject." Keith spoke, "Mind telling me what has happened...while I was here for these past few days?"
"Well of course," Violet smiled. "It..."
"Wait!" Twilight spoke up as her eyes turned to bright yellow, "I always want to do this, FLASHBACK!" Twilight snapped her fingers, and everything went black.
