When we entered the markets a barrage of merchants flooded us and as i expected tried to sell us useless trinkets, then all of a sudden i voice came inside my head telling me that they were paid to keep people they haven't seen before distracted, i looked over my shoulder at Ayrax... scary she could read my thought and even project her own into mine.... this elf magic is scary stuff...
I decided the best action would be to find a place to stay at... I decided it was time i vistited my parents... even if they didn't want to see me again, and i didn't really want to see them either but we needed a place to stay so as to calm down the merchants and allow us a chance to recoop and figure out a plan.
I directed my group into the street i remembered was headed toward my castle. As we began to approch i quickened my step something wasn't right... when i was living here there was a constant flurry of movement, but now... now was as if..... I came upon the place i called home, it was run-down, peices of the wall had fallen over and you could see the inside was much worse then the outside, i looked stund... What had happened to my parents???
Ayrax read my mind and asked a local what had happened.
"There daughter came back from the dead, turns out the body they had found was a slave girl who was going to kill the princess, but the princess, no i should call her Queen, she was too good for that stupid girl she got her and killed that trator... and to think the Queen gave her a second chance too, miserable little wretch."
"So the princess... i mean Queen, her family is up at the castle." i butted in and pointed to the castle that had been the home of Queen Jasmin.
"Yes, she, her family... though she has no husband... her betrothed decided that he wanted love not an arragned marriage, what a fool."
I gave the man a gold coin and ran to the castle, there was no time to be discrete so i created a pothole and entered the audience chamber of the now Queen... my other half.
"So we became Queen even though we didn't marry?" i asked to Keesha, she looked exactly like me, just she had the blackest hair i'd ever seen... even these nobodies had lighter black hair. She looked up from her paper work then shoed away her advisers.
"Who's we, I became queen." She stood up in her regal clothes and took her crown off of the side table and put it on her head.
"I leave you for a year and this is what happens, hmp, i didn't even know you where still alive." i said
"Nor i you, i just figured you were a figment of my imagination."
"I used to be so oblivious, and arrogant."
"Well just think of it this way, you never would have had to become a nobody never had to kill your friend and you wouldn't have had to be a thing that lived on the street like a rat. If only you had listened to me, that little voice in your head."
"You forget your place, i'm the stronger one here." I made my Bazooca apper in my hands and looked at her with daggers in my eyes.
"Not for long," said the queen in a triumphant tone. "i'll be stronger then you, then you'll have to come begging to me, just like all the other people in this kingdom."
At that point Ayrax came to my side along with the rest of my group, i wonder what took them soo long. I stood there and just continued to stare at Queen Keesha.
"you have indeed become a ruler with a heart of ice, i do think that you should have been the one to become a Nobody with no heart." I said shaking my head at the horrid excuse for my other.
"You know that would never have been, i'm the somebody. I did this all on my own, you just ran away... you were always going to be the nobody i was always going to be the somebody. It's as simple as that."
I couldn't never believe that the only person here who had a heart was the one who had the most evil inside them.
I turned and over my shoulder i said.
"Better to be a nobody without a heart them a somebody with a tainted one."
I walked out of the chamber and she yelled back.
"Stay in the orange house on the west of Agraba, i want to keep an eye on you."
i turned again and bowed mockingly, "Yes my princess."
I lead the group to the roughest side of Agraba, it was the meeting place for all those who didn't want to be found, for those bandits or such of the like.
