Ch. 20LIVING


Everyone was seated in the living room and they opened their ears to listen to what Karla had to say. Karla said to everyone ''it is true that I met the Sa'er but that was after the kingdoms were taken and she told me to come here that something is waiting for me. Apart from me wanting to see my family, am also here because the Sa'er told me to come here. The reason am here is because of the dark crystal. I am to take the dark crystal with me''.

Everyone was surprised to hear that then Ryn asked Karl ''where will you be taking the dark crystal to?''.

''A place only known to me. A place where no one will find it'' said Karl.

''What about the people? Marcelos would have sensed that his dark crystal, she, and Ramsay came through here and would send his armies. How do we protect the people then?'' said Nelson to Karl.

''What do you think the war against Marcelos is all about, Nelson? It is all about saving mankind from extinction. Marcelos wants to kill us all and the only way we can end this war is if we all try not to get killed by Marcelos and his armies. So you should know that protecting the people and everyone is a priority. Right now, Marcelos won't be able to sense where his dark crystal is because the Sa'er has cloaked it. Am sure the Sa'er will have done the same with her and Ramsay. So we don't have to worry about Marcelos'' said Karl.

Hearing that made Nelson relieved then Noah said to Nelson ''Are we cool now?''.

''Yes, we are. And you should know I won't apologize for what I said'' said Nelson to Noah.

''You don't need to. I understand you were caring for your people'' said Noah to Nelson.

''So now that everything has been settled. The humans are free to do what is it they want to do while I and Hawk need to talk'' said Karl, and left with Hawk which annoyed princess Tracy.

Nelson and Benjamin left the house while the princes, the princesses, Hemdal, and Ryn moved closer to Lilia to hear about her and Ramsay and how they escaped Marcelos.

AXRAX

Marcelos angrily hit away the foods and fruits in front of him on the dining table and that made Philip and the three Marcs standing in front of Marcelos on the left side scared and they fell to their knees with a bow saying to Marcelos that they were sorry, in the dinning hall. Marcelos said angrily to Philip and 3 Marcs in the ancient language 'I gave you four just a simple task and you couldn't do it. Now I have lost connection with the crystal. How the hell did you want me to find the crystal?''

''Sorry to say this, master, but what about your connection with Ramsay and Lilia? You can use that to find the crystal since they are the ones holding the crystal'' Philip said to Marcelos.

''I have also lost my connection with them. And there is only one person capable of doing this which is the Sa'er. Where the hell is she?'' asked Marcelos.

''She remain unconscious ever since the tomb incident but she is nowhere to be found in Axrax which means the princes and princesses must have left with her body also'' said Philip.

Marcelos angrily said to Philip and the 3 Marcs ''find me Ramsay and Lilia, and the princes and princesses. I don't care where they are. I will kill them all myself''.

''Yes, master'' said Philip and the 3 Marcs in a union.

''I will kill you all'' said Marcelos furiously.

THE NEXT DAY

Very early in the morning, Karl took the dark crystal and said goodbye to everyone saying she would be taking the dark crystal to a place safe and hidden. Hawk told Karl to let him go with her but Karl said no that the fewer people that knew about the whereabouts of the crystal the safer the dark crystal would be, and that Hawk should stay and watch over the kids till she returned. After Karl left, princess Tracy was happy that she would now be able to spend time with Hawk and have Hawk to herself.

Hawk and princess Tracy left the house to spend quality time alone. Hemdal went to the people to see if he can raise an army with the young ones and men. Benjamin and Nelson also went to the town to see how everything was going and went to check on their army to see how their training fared. Ryn would also go wherever Noah went which made princess Camelia jealous and annoyed, and prince Mike would always notice and try to make princess Camelia happy.

Ramsay opened his eyes and saw he was in a room lying down on a bed and next to him was Lilia sleeping. Ramsay smiled upon seeing Lilia and kissed her forehead then wanted to stand up when he noticed the presence of his brother, the princes, the princesses, and Ryn all smiling. Ramsay didn't know what to do seeing them and just stared at them as they all smiled even though he was wondering what their smiling was about. Noah said to Ramsay ''you must really love her''.

''Well, she is the only one who stood by me and loved me at my worst. She is also the one who saves me from myself and my worst enemy. And you should all keep your voice down and stop smiling, you can see she is sleeping'' said Ramsay to them, and sat on the bed.

''Or she is smiling'' said prince Kinsley to Ramsay.

Ramsay was confused to hear that and looked at Lilia to see she was smiling as she lay down on the bed. Ramsay asked Lilia ''oh, they have woken you up''.

''No, they didn't. We had already seen today and actually made a bet on how much you love me which they disagreed with, and you just proven to them how much you love me which means I won'' said Lilia with a smile to Ramsay.

''Oh, I see. Guys, I was joking about what I said earlier'' said Ramsay, then everyone smiled and Lilia sat on the bed.

''You aren't because you were serious when you said it. You truly love her'' said prince Mike to Ramsay, and that made princess Camelia look at prince Mike who looked at her too.

Prince Redrick said to Ramsay ''are you like now the old Ramsay or still the other Ramsay that wants everyone ....... You know what I mean''.

''I don't know what I am anymore. You guys have infected me with a disease that is making me confused about who I am anymore. But I know one thing for sure, am neither the old Ramsay nor the new Ramsay. Am just this me'' said Ramsay.

''Do you remember me, Ramsay'' Ryn asked Ramsay.

''I did not lose my memory, Ryn. I remember who you are. Hope you are no longer the brother's pet'' said Ramsay.

Ryn was annoyed to hear that while the others wondered what Ramsay meant by that except Noah who knows what Ramsay meant. ''Yes, am no longer that'' said Ryn annoyingly to Ramsay.

''It is nice seeing all of you again but where the hell is Hawk, Benjamin, and Tracy?'' asked Ramsay.

''They went to attend a business of theirs'' said princess Kylie.

''And where the hell is Esther?'' asked Ramsay.

''Before that, you need to know something, Ramsay'' said Noah to Ramsay.

''There is nothing I need to know that I don't already know. Is it the fact that Father, Zussorender, Uncle, and the others are dead and we lost everything'' said Ramsay.

Everyone was sad to remember that except Ramsay who didn't even feel remorseful to say it and that made Prince Redrick ask Ramsay ''don't you feel anything? Or is it that you are now emotionless?''.

''I won't say am emotionless because I have feelings for Lilia. And it is not like I can't feel, it is just..... I don't think I can feel anything except for the feeling I have for Lilia'' said Ramsay.

''You all should understand that Marcelos erased the love and care he has for all of you but whatever it is you did to him when he was captured makes believe Marcelos was wrong. That made his feelings twisted. So right now he doesn't know whether to love you all or continue to hate you all just like what Marcelos made him feel but he holding on to the belief that he should love you all just like you all love him. So try to understand him'' said Lilia to the others, and they understood.

''I think she is right, and I need to see Esther. She promised to help me and Lilia to take control of our mind back and be free of Marcelos'' said Ramsay.

''She is still unconscious so that is gonna have to wait'' said prince Mike.

''There are things Father said to tell you and give to you'' said Noah to Ramsay.

''So it won't look like I don't care or see it less, I don't think you should relay Father's message to me or give me the thing he wants me to have now because this Ramsay won't understand it. So until Esther gets the old me back keep those things away from me'' said Ramsay to Noah.

Noah reasoned with what Ramsay said which was right, then prince Redrick said to everyone ''don't tell me we are gonna spend today talking again''.

''No, we are not gonna do that. First, Ramsay will have a change of clothes and then we will hit the town to have fun'' said Ryn to everyone, and they were all happy.

It has been 7 days since Karl left, and ever since then the princes and princesses helped Hemdal raise the human army and trained them. Noah and Ramsay teach the humans with magic and Zussorender's son how to use their magic with Zusorrender's magic book given to Zussorender's son which they also learn from. Hawk and Tracy did nothing but spend time with each other. Ryn and Lilia do nothing but watch as Noah and Ramsay teach magic. Benjamin and Nelson continue to rule the town and train the shapeshifters' army. The humans and the shapeshifters also help each other to provide food for the town and learn from each other. Both the human army and the shapeshifter army also learn from each other whenever they are brought together to train with each other by their leaders. Both the humans and shapeshifters find each other amazing.

Hawk also spent time teaching princess Tracy how to use and control her golden bow and arrow but she hasn't been able to use or control it. After training alone multiple times on how to use and control the golden and arrow which didn't seem to be working, Hemdal gave up and dropped the golden bow and arrow in his room not to waste his time again. Even though Ramsay is still confused about who he is, he still lives his life happily with Lilia by his side to tell him that it is okay and that he deserves some happiness.

Even though every one of them was busy with one or two things they always had time to have fun and spend time with each other which was how princess Kylie found out that Benjamin finds her special and has a thing for her but she pretended not to know anything. They all lived happily in Shape Town 2 but never forgot the bigger threat and that their happiness won't last long because Marcelos is definitely coming.

Zussorader was in charge of Marcelos's armies that were to purge the earth and they had begun to purge the earth by destroying villages, towns, and small kingdoms they came across as they traveled the earth while Philip was in charge of Marcelos' armies that were to find the princes, the princesses, Ramsay, and Lilia. Marcelos with some armies and a Marc stayed in Axrax awaiting feedback and Marcelos trying to find his crystal.
