Old Dragons whisper

* Chapter 16 *

After the king left the room, everyone followed him, leaving only Hana and Marcel, as Hana looked at Marcel with great concern for the king when he reached out his hand and gently grabbed a lock of her hair and put it behind her ear while saying: « Now, it's your turn to sleep, go get some rest, honey! », He gave her a kiss on her forehead and then warmed her lips with a gentle kiss and a really cute smile...

And thereafter, Hana went to her room and had put her head on her bellow and under her blanchet, at time her head started thinking about the waves that she saw and thought of if these waves might be for a power that she could only see! Then, she remembered her mother and said to herself ( if my mother ran away from Ernesto's soldiers, then she was out at time the Masters had erased the world's memory, but she wasn't there with them!! Why wasn't she there?!! And also her guard Joe! He ran away as well, But never heard of any of them!! Also, my sister was found! Could that mean that they had killed them both and took only the baby?!! ), Thoughts overlapped with each other that sleep has flew from her when she remembered the second thing!!: ( Tom's mother named Isabella! His father wasn't from the shadow nation and also, She dead the day she helped my mother!!! ), she wiped her face with her hands, feeling pressure from what she saw and curious for what is missing that she couldn't understand! Moreover, time was ticking by while she was just trying to sleep!

And after an hour, Hana decided to go to have some quick look around the castle, maybe there's things to watch, Instead of failed attempts to sleep! She raised her planchet and walked to the mirrors room, the entrance, where she stood in amazement looking at the transparent glass ceiling with some dead branches of a grape tree on the roof, the reflection of the morning lights around, And the golden color scattered all over it. At that moment, she noticed a very small carved word on one of the mirror frames, ( LOVE ), as she approached it, touched it and started on seeing its past..

Two newly married couple at their 30's, wearing her wedding dress and his overcast suit, The man was hugging his wife from behind her while kissing her cheek and laughing joyfully together and looking at the word (love) that they had just written. Life there seemed to be extremely in peace, as Hana followed them from place to another, at time then, the man turned out to be the king but not only a king. A strong, intelligent, great, and very influential Alpha as well, he built his own world from a young age and even before years of his marriage!

And after two years of their marriage, they had their first child, and due to the queen's weakness, it was difficult for them to have more, the thing that distressed the king for years, specially with being his only child a normal kid with no multiple powers!

And after 18 years, where the king reached the age of fifty, he maintained his strength, tyranny and charisma with his medium white beard, his green eyes and rosy cheek. It was the queen's second pregnancy announcement, which lit the king with happiness, as the whole kingdom celebrated for that news, at that night but his son! The thing that confused him, and made him to search for him throughout the castle! which he later found him in a corridor near his room heading to his mother's room with slow steps, the corridor was dark at their night with candles lights around that were hung on the walls. As then, the king stood in the middle of the corridor and, held his hands behind his back, looked at his son and said: « The king's only son has missed the upcoming baby announcement party! Could it be out of jealousy? », As soon as his son heard his father's voice, he turned quickly in panic and looked at him, when then he walked quickly back to his room! The astonishment that his father felt was great as he never saw his son like that before! when he kept looking at the door of his room for a while in weirdness, then he went and entered the room where his son was sitting on his bed that facing the door. the king then took few more steps towards his son and when he was about to say his words, his son walked again and stood to the right side of the door! Where the king turned to him and kept just looking at him with great astonishment, trying to understand what was happening before he speaks, as his son looked in great whirlpool of anxiety. When suddenly the weird waves appeared that Hana and the king could see! It was coming from the left side of the corridor, entering the door and swimming towards the king's son! The king's eyebrows clenched in astonishment when he saw it, as if he was saying (what is that?), when it started turning around his son's head, as then his features suddenly turned to a sharp features, full of anger, and started saying: « would this brother affect on my position as the next king? », at time then, the king replied while walking briskly to see where the waves are coming from! « It might be a sister!! », when he reached the door and found out that the waves were coming from a soldier who were standing next to the door as in his duty time, and when he saw the king, he immediately saluted him by raising the hand above his head and kicking his foot on the ground and said: « Majesty!! », at time the king didn't like what he saw when said: « Didn't the army teach you better spy techniques? », Then the soldier shook his head as denying, saying, « No, Your Majesty!! I wasn't spying! I have been appointed as the Prince's protector! and in greater detail, i was appointed by him!! i just didn't feel to interrupt you, majesty! », Then the king looked at him angrily and replied: « from which Nation are you?!! »..

* the soldier:- « from the Avatars Nation!! », It was then the waves were starting to disappear from the prince and the soldier, so the king looked at his son and said: « tomorrow morning we have a meeting with the Masters, make sure to be there on the time!! », then he left and headed to his wife's room..

The time the king entered his room, he sat next to his wife and looked at her with sad eyes, as she were sleeping tiredly and very in weakness because of the pregnancy, then he approached her and kissed her forehead when he said: « It's your brother's fault, honey!! Ooh yes! It is his fault!! », Then he stood up and went to the window, opened it and got out a long puff in the air, when then he took out his hand and began to move it in front of him as if he had something in it that Hana could not see, He brought his hand close to his mouth as if he kissed it. then with the other hand, he took out a very small letter from his pocket and put it on his hand and whispered to it, saying: « tell Silvanus to meet me in a hurry!! », Then, he pushed his hand to the out side, it was as if he pushed the thing to fly away and looked at it in the air where the letter flew and suddenly disappeared in the distance! After that, he closed the window and looked at the wall on his left side, and pointed his hand at it. it was a hidden little cupboard, he removed the magic from it, to take out a book, it was "THE MISTRIES OF THE CHARMS BOOK". Hana's shock was overwhelming when she saw the book. According to her knowledge, her mother found it somewhere but before even to know about this hidden world!!

However, he took it, hide the cupboard again and locked his door then he started looking for something in it!

The night passed after that for the king by reading and searching, and when the sun shined up, the king put it back and had a shower then he joined the meeting where there were eight masters sitting on a table, four on each side and the king was opposed his son! And once he had his seat, the Avatar master among the masters started casting these unseen-able waves to the normal people! And as the soldier, the waves were directly headed to his son! And with no word, the king looked at each of them, tried to know who with him and who's not! When his son said with hatred and anger that the king never heard it from him before: « I asked a sorceress to take a look at my brother's future! She said he is weak and will not live long! The stars and planets were clear to her knowing that he would have no power or influence and will die weak and sort of alone!! », Then the king remained silent, thinking, then he said: « what makes you so sure on being the baby a Him not Her? It might be a She and weak as her mother!! The kingdom is already for the eldest son whereby the brothers' victory over him would be an exception!! So what are you afraid of?!! », Then the son replied angrily, « I want to be the king before my brother's born!! », Thus, the king did not answer his son, but ended the meeting and left when the chief of the servants came to him informing of the arrival of a friend of his who was waiting for him at his wife's room! So the king went to his room immediately, and as soon as he entered the room, he closed the door, and looked at his friend when they laughed happily, and hugged each other tightly, when the man said: « ooh my king!! congratulations for this happy announcment!! », Then the king stood and looked at his wife, who was still sleeping, and said: « Your sister has been exhausted by this pregnancy! » Then he looked at him sadly, and completed saying: « Do you remember when I asked you to stay by my side after my widding? I told you to live with us in this world, in the castle because you were the only person I could trust no matter how many years passed! I told you that even if you had changed your side stowaway, i would know that easily, and as fast i will understand its cause! And I told you that I would hold you responsible for any treachery they would inflict on me here! », His friend was shocked as he understood what the king meant when he replied, saying: « what do you mean?!!! », Then the king smiled and replied in extremely sadness: « they are in everywhere now!! I didn't realize them until it was over for me! My old friend, Now you can do a thing to rescue the future of the whole world!!! It all stands on you now!! », Then the king extended out his hand over his friend's eyes and made a very strong snap in front of them, when then his friend suddenly cried out in pain, closed his eyes and started rubbing them hard when the king said: « Don't worry it will go away in seconds!! I just gave you the ability to see the people of time! I want you to go to a city named ( Bargozyia ) at its mountain there's a cave, you'll find there their leader! you will tell him that the upcoming Alpha is about to get born, and the current Alpha is asking you to prepare for taking care of it until its puberty! eight months left, and you will bring them the baby! and only you who will bring it to them!! », Then his friend opened his eyes in very shock where the pupils of his eyes had widened and it filled his entire eyes, and in a second it started to turn back to its normal when then the kind put his hand on his friend's shoulder and said: « Silvanus!! I only trust you!! », at time then, his friend's said: « people of time? i'll try to find them as fast as possible, then i will come back to you, to protect you and my sister, my best friend!! », But the king shook his head in refusal and said: « Do not come back until i give you my word!! If you came back, Then you will put yourself under their surveillance, and as i saw, you will never be able to protect yourself under their power!! », and in weirdness, Silvanus said: « why? Which power do they own? »

* the king: « I'm afraid of my answer as I'm not sure of it yet!! I will look more about them myself!! », Then, Silvanus shook his head in agreement, he looked at his tired sister, approached her and kissed her forehead when his tears fill his eyes, very worried about her and about her great husband, his best friend! And when he was about to leave, he looked at the king and put his hand on his shoulder, saying: « My sister is the trust that I provided and that my father gave.. take care of her by your life! », Then he hugged him for the last time and left while his eyes were looking back, as if his heart was refusing to leave..

Since then, the king devoted his time between books, reading from one to another, but quietly, without letting anyone see what he was reading or know what was on his mind.

And on a night after a week, the king placed many books as all of them were opened on specific pages, on top of his room's table, where the king stood in front of them, rubbing his beard, looking and thinking! That's when Hana stepped forward and looked at the books, and they all were talking about The nation of the Dominators! The God's Demonic power..

And as soon as she read the name, she remembered the book of legends that she had always loved to read. The nation that was known for its love for controlling and s*****y, the nation that has always been proud of the destruction it causes! the love to control masters, kings, any kind of people, and everything that will cause the pain! But also, the book mentioned their love for cunning to destroy those who cannot be controlled!! The Alphas...

The Alphas were born with a power of protection from their childhood that prevented all forces from controlling them and for this reason, the Dominators were trying to destroy the Alphas by destroying those around them, and especially the close ones. deploying themselves around them until they get what they wanted..

And from that part, Hana found the answers of many questions that have always puzzled her!! She looked at the king with great astonishment, shocked of being this nation still a-life and how smart could he realize that! when he moved forward, extended his hand and turned a page of one of the books, and began to study it well and deeply!

And after three months, the king walked to his son's bedroom where of course the soldier was standing next to him, so the king ordered him to leave the room as an order from the king himself, and once the door got closed, the king extended his hand and mumbled with a spell that made his hand fill with a heap of light, which he threw forcefully on his son's face who got shocked by the matter and started wiping his eyes from the light! And At there time, the waves began to enter from the bottom of the door, towards the prince, at time the king took few steps back, put his hands behind his back and stood watching it, swimming to the prince! and once the waves reached his head, it couldn't control him as fast as before, but it controlled him at last, so Hana understood what the king was trying to do!! Trying to find that spell that will protect some people from that Dominic power!

Since that time, the king had tried many spells, all of which have failed, Until the Queen's pregnancy had approached its last! the king at there time felt the pressure of time and there was no way to help his family!!

And accordingly, at night he opened a ‏transfer gate in his room that overlooked a forest, where once he entered, it was closed, while Hana was unabled to catch him up as she was reading the past of the palace! she felt nervous as how much curios she was to see what he was up to, she looked around her anxiously at the old king's room where it had been converted into a small meeting room, which she had no difficulty in entering But nothing useful was found, so she reached out her hand once more sadly to continue seeing what will happen next! where then, the transfer gate was opened after that and the king returned to his room, who immediately took out a piece of paper and began to draw a map, which took him two days to complete!! And as soon as he finished it, the symptoms of childbirth began on the queen, so the obstetrician and two nurses came when the king went out to the garden, he blew, whispered, put a letter in his hand, pushed it away and it flew away and disappeared again! and in less than two hours, the queen had given birth to her Alpha baby girl! then Silvanus arrived, hiding his face under his black overcoat, he rushed to his sister's room, Where the king straightly ordered all the servants to leave, shut the door tightly and looked at both of the queen and her brother and said: « the three of you will have to leave the castle now!! », as he ran to the hidden cupboard, got out the map he draw and as fast then, he opened a transfer gate, and said: « Silvanus, This transfer gate will takes you to a forest with a river, it's an area of a hidden island i've made, so when you walk out you must to follow this map! you all gonna be safe there!! », at time Silvanus replied so nervously: « But you, my king???? », the king then answered: « i must protect my only son!! His father made a mistake but he's the one who's paying for it by his life!! I won't ever leave him! i will try my best!!!! », Then the king went to the queen, kissed her forehead, put his hand sadly on her cheek while she was shedding tears, and said: « You must recover your strength for only this day, my queen! Please stay safe and be at your best!! », At time then, the queen stood up exhaustedly and put her hand on his cheek and said with crying: « I'm gonna miss you, my love!!! », and they hugged each other!! At time then, Silvanus took the child, as the queen leaned on his arm, and when they headed to leave, the king said: « Silvanus, my child must be named Cardinia!! », Then Silvanus looked at the king with eyes that were full of tears, nodded his head in agreement, and left..

At that moment, Hana started saying on her mind: ( Cardinia!!! Is that mean that the king is my grandpa and the exhaustion queen is my grandma!!), the shock was overwhelming, When she looked at the King who was standing clearly depressed, He looked around him at his unusually dark empty room, wiping away his tears, and at last he sat down on his bed, then laid down and tried to sleep! And after the night had passed, at the dawn, the king woke up and immediately sat, looked at the door, which had suddenly been slammed open, but he wasn't surprised, as if he knew already of their coming! it was his son who entered and stood next to him Silvanus, they looked at the king with a smile of pity on him, When then Silvanus took the map out of his pocket and threw it on the king's face, at time his son said, « Where did you take the child? » But the king started shedding tears as soon as he lifted the map off the ground, as he couldn't stop no matter how much he tried..
