I looked up and saw Swanton looking at me with a devilish grin ooh someone please save me from this devil I said to my self.

Ooh I see what you are doing you are trying to buy more time hahahah no one is coming to save you maybe your husband and your wretched mother are even hahahaahaa...... said luke heading over to where the baby is oooh!! what a cute baby you have, if she grows she will be my wife such a beauty don't touch my baby you p*****t. Queen Adinna said running toward Luke with a sword, but in a flash of second Adinna was on the ground with blood over her body don't underestimate me Queen. Now come to me baby, They might have gotten away by now Queen Adinna said to herself. Luke stretched his hands to touch the baby and the hologram disappeared. Hahahaha Queen Adinna laughed you think I will let you take away my baby. Oh no you wretch Luke kicked Queen Adinna in her stomach, she screamed in pain. Guards!Guards!!!!
Yes sir! Take this wretch and tie her in the city Square where everyone can see her am going to torture her,punishment for trying to trick me. Send Guards to search for Gina and the baby the have not gotten far.
Common baby JJ, please stop crying your mom put in much effort to save us said Gina in a low tone. I wonder where we should go, I cannot go to Benner,never will I set my foot there. Where! where!!where!!!! Should we go to Benner is the most powerful kingdom and it is likely they will search for us in other kingdom, so let go to Benner even if it pains me, to go to the country that caused us much pain, it is more safer there. Thank Goodness you fell asleep.
Oooh there we have Our pretty Queen Adinna, our brave king Bernard and the old hag Ronita said Prince Lewis(Luke). Luke how dare you, do this to our kingdom we are just a small kingdom, we leave in peace we always pay our taxes to Benner. Hahahaha..... Luke laughed interrupting King Bernard. Well all you said was reasonable, you did nothing wrong,but it was your bad fate that the starholder was born into this kingdom,what a pity hahahahaaha.... Don't you worry I will hunt you even after death lady Ronita said. Ooh old hag you are still alive I thought you were dead said Luke chuckling. Luke!!!!!

Yes sir have your men found the baby and that wretch? No sir but we are trying our best to catch them, you see this gun if you don't find them by tomorrow, a bullet will be waiting for you in my gun.
People of Teace, your King and Queen are dead, this kingdom will be called Yukio. It will be an outstation for the Benner kingdom, and anyone I mean anybody who has a problem with this decision,will answer to my gun. The news of the conquering and fall of Teace kingdom spread throughout the whole nation far and near everyone feared for their lives and that of their subject, they submitted full alliance to the King of Benner it was a truly dark era, everyone lived in fear for their lives, the taxes were more than what the poor people could afford and non payment of tax can lead to immediate s*****y for the rest of your life.
Oh goodness, we need to find food JJ or we'll starve I can't let you starve, I made a promise to your mom to keep you save, no matter the cost you are the star of hope to save this nation said Gina tearfully, Common Gina it no time to cry be strong Gina said soliloquizing. Search over there I heard a voice, oh no I can't be caught here and right now. I see a house there baby Joanne let run there, please! please!! Open the door I said banging it please!!! Who are you I heard a rather manly voice say, can you let me stay in your house for the night. The door was opened I saw a rather disturbing looking old man, but I have no choice now.Hi, my name is Gi..... we are wanted people I can't just say my name casually. Hey lady what your name the old man said jerking me out of my thought. My name is Ginare, this is my baby Joa...Joa..Joan, can we stay in your house for the night. Okay no problem, oh goodness he looks like a p*****t said Gina. Why is he looking at me like that? Am just grateful I got a house, but I can't let my guard down.Joan come eat dinner, I know it taste bad but we need to survive, yeah that the spirit time to sleep. Ginare called the old man your baby is asleep, yeah thank you for letting us stay. So Ginare I wanna tell you something, something nice, what an old p*****t. When I thought I was safe Ginare thought. I know who you are.....yeah yeah I am Ginare I said interrupting him you bloody liar you are Gina and the baby is the starholder Joanne, I will not tell the soldiers outside, you see am a very peaceful man continued the old man under one condition, I haven't seen a very beautiful woman in years, your skin,your eyes am attracted by you baby said the Old man with lustful eyes. I could see lust in his eyes, but I was not ready to be abused by this p*****t, Okay old man but what do you want me to do I said. You are such an intelligent girl,it simple give your body to me and I will keep you safe in this house. I knew it thank goodness I did not eat what he gave me,what a pain Gina said nodding her heard disappointed. Before I could gather words to say the old p*****t jumped on me and began to tear my cloth,i tried to push him off but he was very strong,stronger than he looks. Please old man,get off me I don't want to kill you,please old man oooh young girl just stay calm it won't take long. I then took out a knife from my sache and stab the Old man. I regretted it, but I will never let any harm come to you baby JJ.
So that how we got this house to live in for the past 13 years, it really a nice house though said Gina laughing heartily. JJ why are you crying said Gina, Grandma! So many people died because of me answered Joan. That why you have to grow more stronger to protect those you love and save the people from this dark era, you are the hope of all the people, it is a difficult task for you, but you have to do it. Time for bed my cupcake okay Grandma I answered half heartily, this was a huge news for me to completely digest. But I have to grow stronger!stronger!!stronger!!! I said clenching my fist and take revenge for my parents and the people.
Good morning cupcake Grandma said waking me up from sleep, my eyes felt heavy, maybe because I shed too much tears last night. Good morning Grandma. Grandma please train me I want to grow stronger!stronger!!stronger!!! I will destroy all our enemies and bring back peace to the last, that's my baby Grandma answered chucking.
I almost forgot I need to give you something important, you must never show anyone or your life will be in danger. This is the star token, it belongs to you the star holder,prophecy says the star holder appears after every 1000 years, to help the people and grant them peace.
