DISCLAIMER I DO NOT OWN BROTHERS CONFLICT IN ANYWAY SHAPE OR FORM

"Alright children please pay attention, we are about to enter the Bubbly wing of the museum," a teacher tried to maintain order with her class as she led them into the exhibit. All around were pictures and displays of items and events from so many years ago.

"But, isn't this wing the one dedicated to the Asahina era of history?" a student asked.

"Well yes," the teacher said.

"Then can't we just skip the lecture and just look around? Everybody knows about the Asahina era, it's one of the most famous times in our history!"

"Oh, so everyone here considers themselves an expert on the Asahina era do they?" a museum worker asked as she came and stood next to the teacher.

"Well, it's not like it's hard to remember what happened during that time," another student said.

"Well then, why don't you tell me about it then, you can give me and your teacher the lecture," the guide said, "first of all, who knwos why this era is well known as the Asahina era?"

Nearly all the kids raised their hands, but the guide managed to single one child out.

"It's called that because when Queen Ema Asahina was crowned, she and her brothers, helped develop and evolve Elence into a happy peaceful and profitable country, ranked one of the best in all the world."

"Yes, very good, and who can tell me the names of some of Queen Ema's brothers that helped her evolve Elence?"

Several of the kids hands shot up.

"One at a time! One at a time class, please!" their teacher tried to calm them down.

"You!" the guide said pointing to a child, "give us a name."

"Dr. Masaomi Asahina! He served both as the head doctor of Queen Ema's first child hospital and helepd get a few other built, each state of the art and helpful to the public!"

"Yes, he did, and who also helped him with that?"

"His wife, Erica Asahina. She was also head of the House of Council and worked with Queen Ema on many occasions and projects!"

"Very good," said the guid, "and did the queen have any other relatives that served as head of the House of Council?"

Again many hands shot up.

"Her second brother, Ukyo Asahina! He and wife Hannah also served as head on separate occasions! Both helped the enhancement and prosperity the country now has!"

"Yes they both did," the tour guide said.

"My dad said they probably could have been some pretty cool Prime ministers if they weren't so dedicated to helping the royal household," one student whispered.

"Well that's nice to hear," said the teacher.

"Well, let's move away from politics and see if any of you can name another brother who help make this country so great," said the tour guide.

Once again all hands shot up.

"Yes, you."

"One helped build the Golden Mabee Buddhist monastery!"

"Oh yes, such a nice peaceful place," said the teacher.

"Yeah not to mention a great tourist attraction," muttered the guide, "Who knows his name?"

"Kaname Asahina!" nearly all the kids shouted.

"Children, remember to raise your hands first," the teacher instructed.

"But yes, it was Kaname Asahina who founded the temple," the guide concur. "Now who knows the name of his wife who helped him establish it?"

"Elizabeth Asahina! Since she was a representative of Elence and later the fulltime ambassador, she was able to work with Kaname Asahina and even the revern Howard, Queen Ema's cousin, to get it built!" One studen shouted.

"What did I just say about raising hands!" the teacher scolded.

"Oh she's fine! Loosen up!" the guide said. "Now who can name another brother?"

"May I go?" one student asked, making sure to raise his hand, "There's Hikaru Asahina. He became a well known writer/illustrator team with his wife Heather. They did several books in English and Japanese and are well known in both countries."

"Very good," The guide praised, "a little bonus question, who was Heather Asahina's mother?"

"Oh, Carlotta Cook, the first woman and black Prime Minister!"

"Good job," the guide praised again, "now let's call on someone else for another brother."

"Oh me!"

"Pick me!"

"I know!"

"Children please! Manners!" their teacher said sternly.

"Let's see," The guide said as she circled around the kids, "you."

"Uh, There's Natsume Asahina. He was the head of his own gaming company back in Japan and he eventually established a branch of it here in Elence, making it also rise in the gaming industry."

"Correct, Elence certainly has made a name for itself within the gaming world," said the guide.

"His Emily helped too!" One student spoke up, "my mom said sice she was so learned in folklore, she was able to come up with different worlds and backstories to many games her husband's company made."

"That's right dear, but remember, hand riased," the teacher scolded.

"Now what else was special about Natsume amomg his brothers?" the guide asked.

"He had two triplet brothers as well," one student said quickly.

"That's right!" the guide said pointing to him, "and what were they're names?"

"Azusa and Tsubaki!" the student replied.

"And what was their occupation?" asked the guide.

"Well they both worked as voice actors in Japan but then moved on to different projects in life."

"Such as?"

"Well Tsubaki eventually became a famous stage actor as well, performing in many different plays, especially under the direction of his Beatrice. They also re-established the Shakespeare competition that's become well known world wide."

"Very good, and what did Azusa do?"

"He went on to establish his own animation studio that made and produced. many different animated shows and movies, in Elence and Japan."

"Good," said the guide.

"You know my mom was able to take lessons from his wife once," one kid whispered proudly.

"What was that?" the teacher asked.

"Oh, sorry, I wa saying my mom got to have a lesson session with Azusa Asahina's wife Natasha who was a famous equestrian. She owned two famous corral, one in Japan and one here in Elence where she was a highly sought after horse trainer and rider trainer. And she aslo would do special one week riding lesson sessions for kids during summer breaks and my mom got to take one.

"Oh that must have been exciting for her," said the guide, "Now Natasha wasn't the only equestrian expert in the family was she?"

"Oh!"

"Oh!"

"Oh!"

"You," the guide said as she pointed to a new student.

"Rose Asahina! She was a gold medalist and eventually became head of the royal stables like many others in her family!"

"Correct," said the guide, "and what sport was her husband known for?"

"Basketball!" a lot of the male students shouted.

"Shh!" hissed their teacher.

"Subaru Asahina is probably the best basketball player in Elence history! He led the Wolfbanes to 4 consecutive victories in a row!" said one

"My dad has so many of his things!"

"Yeah, and you know how much his rookie card is worth?!"

"Boys going a little fan crazy there," the guide said. "Shall we move on to a not so famous brother maybe?"

"There's no such thing!" one girl bragged.

"Oh? What else is some of the Asahina brothers known for?" asked the guide.

"Well there's my personal idol, Iori Asahina. He and his wife Jane are some well known botanists. They created their own garden that they named after Queen Ema's mother Yolanda and helped developed a new rose also named the Princess Yolanda! I want to be a botanist like them someday!"

"Good for you," said the guide.

"They're not nearly famous as one the younger brothers!" said one students snarky.

"And who was that?" asked the guide.

"Futo Asahina! One of the greatest idols of all time!" the student bragged.

"No way! His wife Ami was way more famous! She was awesome!"

"No Futo!"

"Ami!"

"Futo!"

"Ami!"

"Enough!" the teacher shouted, "everyone is entitled to their own opinion and that includes who they think was the best idol, Futo or Ami."

"Anyway, that just leaves 3 brothers of Queen Ema to discuss, would anyone like to name the two before naming the one who is probably the best known?" the guide asked.

"Lord Louis?" one student said quickly, "he was practically the co-monarch with Queen Ema, he did a lot of jobs for her especially every time she had a child."

"Yes Lord Louis did almost seem like the second in command for the longest time," the guide said, "who was he often compared to?"

"Prince Rubert," the student answered, "and Lord Louis even married a member of his family, Lady Sophie!"

"She wasn't a real member of his family. His great-grandson was only her uncle by marriage!" one student said.

"Close enough," said the guide, "Lord Markus loved Sofie like his own granddaughter, just like her mother was like a daughter to him."

The first student smirked at the other.

"Now," the guied said getting everyone back on track, "the other brother before...,"

"Wataru!" nearly every student shouted.

"He was a gold medal in riding too!"

"And later became a teacher like his sister-in-law Lady Sophie!"

"Yes," the teacher said softly.

"He did live a wonderful life," the guide finished just as softly. Both were smiling with pride. Until they noticed that one student had come up to them closely.

"I know a secret about Lord Wataru," she said ina whisper, "I know you two are his daughters."

Both women looked frightened at each other.

"How did you find that out?" asked the teacher.

"My mom told me. She said you two wanted to do normal jobs so you kept your royal identities a secret. You're also members of the royal Poulon family!"

"Wait, did you say they're Wataru's daughters?!" One student asked who was standing nearby.

You two are sisters?!"

"They do actually look a lot alike now that I think about it!"

"Oh dear, our secrets out," said the teacher.

"We've tried to keep it silent," said the guide, "yes, we are sisters and we are the daughters of Wataru Asahina and his wife, Princess June of Poulon, Abby and Wirumia."

"Is your name Japanes, teacher?"

"Yes, it's Japanese for Wilma. I was the only one among our siblings to have such a name."

"Yeah, you also have your brother Stephon who became a successful equestrian like your dad."

"Didn't your brother marry one of Lord Louis and Lady Sophie's daughters?"

"Yes, Stephon did marry their daughter Georgette," said Wirumia.

"And they were very happy together," said the guide, Abby.

"That's kind of disgusting! They were technically cousins!"

"Not by blood!"

"Well anymore than the last brother of Aunt, err, Queen Ema," said Abby, "That being of course, dear old Uncle Yusuke, Prince of Elence, aka Queen Ema's stepbrother."

"He was so cute!"

"Yeah, my mom had such a crush on him!"

"Yes, yes we all know what a steamboat Uncle Yusuke was, and a good devoted husband and father," said Abby.

"I like that Queen Yolanda got his red hair. She looked good with it."

"Who remembers the names of Queen Yolanda's 5 other siblings?" Abby asked.

"Princ Kennth, or Kenji was he was often called, Princess Katherine, Princess Lilac, Prince Richard, also known as Rintaro, and Princess Mia, or Miwa as she was often called too!"

"Very good," said Wirumia.

"I should hope people remember them too. They've all been doing good in Elence and Japan as well," Abby muttered.

"Abby," her sister whispered-warned.

"Well I like our cousins! All six of them," said Abby.

"I know, I do too," said Wirumia.

"Well, anyway, it's clear you children know your stuff about the Asahina era. Go ahead and look around," Abby allowed.

"Yay!" all the kids shouted as they took off among the pictures and displays.

"Wait! Abby! I say when that happens! Her sister scolded.

"Hmm," Abby said wit a shrugged. Both walked over to a picture of Ema and Yusuke with all six of their children.

"Oh Aunt Ema would be proud to see how Elence is doing, as would great-grandfather Stephon!" Wirumia said.

"Speaking of Stephon, do you think Yolanda's boy Stephon will live up to the expectations?" Abby asked.

"Why do you ask such a question with such an obvious answer?" Wirumia asked.

"I know, he'll be great, the future King Stephon the 3rd," Abby said.

"And the future Queen Emma of Poulon?" Wirumia asked.

"I still think it's weird King Dimitri named his daughter that," said Abby.

"Cousin Zane thought the same thing," said Wirumia.

"At least our countries are closer now," said Abby.

"Hmm, true," Wirumia said, as she noticed a picture of her parents wedding with both members of Elence and Poulon royal family in attendance.

"What a family we have."

"Yes, a great family," Abby agreed, "Thanks to Aunt Ema."

Both stared at their aunt's offcial royal picture with pride as the next generation observed and enjoyed the exhibit of tribute to their family.
