Chapter 10

"Dwayne." the angel called and he answered and the angel said, "I am the angel of wisdom and strength, I will always be your guide and call on me when you need me the most, here is a gift for your sister." he collected it and Ruby opened it and saw a necklace looking so beautiful and enchanting, she put on the necklace when another strange light appeared, then she heard her name from another angel saying to her," Ruby, I am the angel of speed and time, I will always be with you, call me anytime with your necklace whenever you are in need."

Andrew angel appeared and said, "Andrew, the trustworthy, I am the angel of lie detector, I will always be with you, whenever you are in need or in trouble, always call on me and I must warn you, as a trustworthy companion, you are expected to be loyal and no matter what avoid lying to anyone, always say the truth no matter what, whenever you lie there is a punishment and it will take a day to recover." and he nodded.

Dwaney angel told them, "the whole angels, the Zappy kingdom are all depending on you, this is your destiny and make sure you defeat Sunbus at all means, now you need to  go the kingdom of Jalies but you need to be careful, Sunbus is in disguise and also the King of Jalies is very wicked and he works with Sunbus, I repeat you need to be very careful,"

Dwaney asks the angel." what about the Crystallites, are they still in existence?"

"Yes," the angel replied, "they will surely find you as usual."

Ruby asked the angel, " how can we locate the kingdom?" the angel replied he has placed the map already in Dwayne's head and they should be careful on their way and they repeated their words saying, "Be very careful and call on us whenever you are in need" and they disappeared.

Ruby said in excitement, "we need to get prepared to leave here, we have some ass to kick,"

Andrew laughed and said, "let's rest for today and leave tomorrow." The rest agreed and they started asking some questions about Andrew's father.

*the Kingdom Of Jellies*

King Leo had lunch with his two children, Prince Jasper and Princess Elena, and he started a conversation as they were eating, "How was the training this morning?"

" it was fine dad," replied Prince Jasper in a sad tone and carrying an angry face when his sister looked at him.

"Just fine?" his father asked, " and why the face, what troubles you then?"

Princess Elena joined the conversation, "don't mind him, dad, his angry I defeated him this time around, he's just a weakling, how did you become my brother?"

"Elena watch your mouth." said Jasper, "I have warned you never to call me a weakling but you kept on saying it." Their  father asked both of them to keep quiet and told Elena to stop mocking his brother and he hailed her for taking after him, this got Jasper pissed the more and he turned to Jasper, "when you defeat her she will be quiet and won't mock you again, stop acting weak like your late mother and take after me your father cause I am not weak." Prince Jasper lost his joy and said he was done eating and went into his room.

"Father when are you going to take me with you to fight by your side and when will I meet your friend you talked about that promised to make us immortal?"  King Leo laughed and said, "my Princess just be patient soon when the time comes will take you with me, cause I see the strength that flows through you, I wish your brother is as strong as you."

"Alright father but father you told me when I was still a kid you attacked a particular village, are you sure none of them survive it?"

"of cause, none of them survived it, I made sure I burnt it down." replied her father then she hailed her dad as they continued eating.

Prince Jasper started hitting the walls in his room out of anger, then he stoned his mirror saying, "I am not a weakling, they should stop calling me a weakling, even my father is supporting her, I will prove to them that I am not weakling at all." He thought of Andy his love, he misses her a lot, he actually was scared bringing her to the palace to meet her dad but he said to himself very soon, he won't be scared anymore and he will bring her to the palace. He looked for a means to leave the palace without him being seen by his father and mostly his sister see Andy.

He was almost caught when he was about to leave but luckily for him, he wasn't seen by his sister then he left to Andy's place, he hugged her so tight and told her how he misses her and she replied she misses him more, he looked at her, she was even prettier today, her pink hair, pink lips, and her pink attire all look good on her and he appreciated her beauty and told her she looks gorgeous and she smiled. She prepared food for him and they ate together and discussed a lot of different things he was happy having her in his life, whenever his father or sister mocks him, she reminds him he's not a weakling at all but a strong person.

After much talk, she was feeling sleepy and she slept off resting on Prince Jasper's chest and he slept off as well.

Dwaney, Ruby, and Andrew left their place already and started the journey riding on their horses, they started singing a song that Ruby raised as they kept on riding

         "How long before I get in?

          Before it starts before I begin?

          How long before you decide?

          Before I know what it feels like?

         Where to, where do I go?

          If you never try, then you'll never know

          How long do I have to climb

          Upon the side of this mountain of mine?

         Look up, I look up at night

         Planets are moving at the speed of light

          Climb up, up in the trees

          Every chance that you get

          Is a chance you seize

          How long am I gonna stand

         With my head stuck under the sand?

         I'll start before I can stop

     Before I see things the right way up

     All that noise, and all that sound

     All those places I have found

    And birds go flying at the speed of sound

    To show you how it all began

    Birds came flying from the underground

    If you could see it then you'd understand

     Ideas that you'll never find

    All the inventors could never design

    The buildings that you put up

    The sign that I couldn't read

    Or a light that I couldn't see

   Some things you have to believe

  But others are puzzles, puzzling me

   All that noise, and all that sound

   All those places I have found

   And birds go flying at the speed of sound

    To show you how it all began

    Birds came flying from the underground

   If you could see it then you'd understand

   Ah when you see it then you'll understand

   All those signs, I knew what they meant

   Some things you can invent

   And some get made, and some get sent

  Ooh ooh

  Birds go flying at the speed of sound

  To show you how it all began

  Birds came flying from the  underground

If you could see it then you'd understand

   Ah, when you see it then you'll understand

    Oh oh

     Birds go flying at the speed of sound

  To show you how it all began

  Birds came flying from the  underground

If you could see it then you'd understand

   Ah, when you see it then you'll understand."

They stopped singing when they heard some strange noises and they decided to check it out, they sighted some people being beaten and the people that were beating them looked like guards, "Should we just ignore them or help them out?" Andrew asked.

"I think it's best if we help them out we can't let them be." Ruby replied, so they walked in their midst and one of the guards asked, "who are you?"

"We mean no harm," said Ruby. "Just let the people go and so you can leave in peace," Ruby added.

The guards started laughing and said, "how can a girl threaten us?"

"Do not underrate my sister." said Dwayne  but the guard hits Ruby and said, "do your worst."

This provoked them and they attacked the guards, Ruby was such a good fighter, she, first of all, beats the one that underrated her before beating the rest, they overpowered the guards and they started begging for mercy that they will all leave the people and Ruby smiled and chased them, Dwayne and Andrew assisted the people up and asked what happened when one of the women spoke saying, "They came to collect taxes but we told them we have no money with us, that we are poor that was how they started beating us, destroying our things, I am happy you helped us,"

"it's nothing at all," They rested there a little before they will continue their journey.

Dwayne  said, "I hope we get to the place on time because the map on my head shows we are not yet close to the land."

Ruby responded, "we will surely get there and I am happy these people gave us shelter." Andrew talked about the Crystallites, "I guess he or she will be looking for us presently, I am so tired now, will be going in to have some rest."

Dwayne  replied him saying "Okay, I will check the surroundings to make sure it's okay and safe before joining you all Inside."

*Manthos Town*

"Please let us be, we have paid our taxes," a woman cried, the village was scattered, The King said, "I am the King and the law, I heard this village is also keeping the Crystallites, where are they now? Bring them out." He commanded them.

They all begged him saying they know no Crystallites, the King gave the order to bring down the village since they refuse to tell him the truth, a Crystallite with two children took them to a spot and asked them to run so that the King won't kill them when  the guards attacked the lady as she fought with them, the white Crystallites told her sister the pink Crystallite to run that she will be right behind her, "no I can't leave you, sister."

" I promise I will be right behind you, I need to help mother, now go, go," she cried as she was running but she looked back and could not see traces of her sister, she kept on running as she shouted.

Prince Jasper calm her down as she woke up, "Andy are you okay, it's just a dream," she was already sweating as Prince Jasper held and calmed her.

"I miss my sister so very much, I wish I never left her, I doubt if she is still alive," she cried but she never told Prince Jasper the real story, she was scared of  revealing her real identity to anyone, she feels it will land her in great danger, she behaves in a way that you will never suspect her of being a pink Crystallite, Prince Jasper told her he will be going back to the palace soon before his dad starts looking for him, "why can't you stay with me this night, you want to leave me all alone this time around?"

"I am sorry Andy, I can never leave you alone, you know I can't sleep out of the palace but I promise to always check up on you." he kissed her and left.

A few days later, Dwaney, Ruby, and Andrew finally got to the land of Jalies and they were all excited, Dwaney said he needed a drink as he entered a haunt looking like a pub with his friend and sister to have a drink not knowing King Leo guards were around there and also watching them cause they are strangers.
