King Mark is in a meeting with King Edmund of Solaria
King Mark: Last month, Prince Randall, Princess Penny and Princess Jade made many innovations in Nivis as you know
King Edmund: Yes, from what I heard, the people of Dysnomia even held a celebration for her, it seems they did a good job
King Mark: My daughter Princess Jade is really talented and a very good gryffin in her field, as for your problem, I suggest you get her opinion on agriculture
King Edmund: I need more than an opinion, two damn suns are on our heads, a little rain wouldn't hurt
King Mark: I need to see your annual yield and stock chart, and if I can get you something from the stocks, I can get by until the problem is solved.
King Edmund: Thank you for your kind offer King Mark, but I doubt it will work in the long run
King Mark: We'll try the trial and error method until it's settled, as I said I'll need the data as soon as possible
King Edmund: Of course I'll have it ready and sent it
Prince Silas: Well My King if you have a few minutes I wanted to ask you something privately
King Edmund: King Mark has work to do My Prince we'd best be on our way
King Mark: No problem King Edmund, come on young Prince tell me about yourself
While King Mark and Prince Silas continue to talk for a while King Edmund waits for Prince Silas outside the castle for a while. Astrid and Jade see a horse carriage at the entrance while returning to the castle and ask the guards
Astrid: Which kingdom visited?
Guard: King Edmund of Solaria and Prince Silas are here, my Princess
Jade: Silas is here, that's interesting
Astrid: Oh, I wonder why they are here
Jade: The kingdom's diplomat must know for sure
Astrid: Randall!
They head towards Randall's study together
Jade: Ranny, are you here? *curious*
Randall: Don't you girls have anything else to do?
Astrid: Don't you have some fun besides being so serious?
Jade: Astrid, don't you forget why we came
Randall: Wow Jade, you've been so generous for a while
Jade: Shut up, you blockhead
Astrid: Randall, I was wondering why Prince Silas and King Edmund are here?
Randall: They're speeding things up so they can marry you off to Prince Silas
Astrid: Aaaaaa! AAAAA!
Randall:I'd like to say but unfortunately things aren't going so well in Solaria that's why they're here
Jade: Ahaha I was going to believe it for a second
Astrid: Freak this isn't funny you know I'm in love with him
Randall: I know but there are so many jerks in the kingdom can't you pick another one
Jade: Don't be a jerk Ranny
There's a knock at the door
Randall: Come in
Guard: My prince, Princesses
Randall: Yes?
Guard: My lord King Mark is calling for you and he wants Princess Jade and Prince Lorenzo too
Randall: Ok you can leave
Astrid: Oh for the love of Gryffin I'm going to go watch the wolves
Jade: Watch out Jade, Randall and Lorenzo go to King Mark. They knock on the door and enter
Jade: Dad *joyful*
Randall: My king
Lorenzo: Do I have to go? Can't I just stay here in the kingdom?
King Mark: Grow up Lorenzo, I'm not giving you a job to stay here and loaf around all day
Lorenzo: But I don't like Tempestas
King Mark: I don't like it either, but I like you to act as a spy
Randall: What kind of spying?
Jade: What's going on?
King Mark: I received an important letter and it seems like the Tempestans are supporting the Phoenix people to supply supplies and sabotage the other kingdoms
Lorenzo: And what does he want from us?
King Mark: Your I want you to sneak in there and get the attention I want without leaving a trace and come back
Jade: What can I do in that case?
King Mark: Do what you do best, my beautiful girl. Let this be a warning.
Lorenzo: It's going to be a wonderful day.
Randall: But we have one little problem.
King Mark: What's it like?
Randall: We're on the moon of Veloras, hello?
Lorenzo: Oh, we have perfect timing for old Isaac.
King Mark: Well, each of you can put on a costume and go out among the people.
Jade: They're doing that Halloween thing, aren't they?
Randall: Unfortunately.
King Mark: I need you to bring me information that will prove what's going on there. Be careful, they have people everywhere. and phoenixes are very sneaky about that
Lorenzo: I don't think any phoenix with wet and cold wings could fly
And they all got ready and set off. Jade was wearing a witch costume,Randall was Batman and Lorenzo was the Joker to match.
Randall: This damn costume is killing me
Jade: Stop whining, big boy
Lorenzo: Time to get to work, let's drop some dew
Randall: Yeah, start right now, by the time we get there my flood will be there too and the Phoenix smugglers will be gone before we get there
Jade: Okay, but what are we gonna do with that Halloween freak
Lorenzo: Just play the part, little brother
After a little while, they'll reach the kingdom.
Lorenzo: It's like one of the pumpkins came to life and threw up all over the streets
Randall: That's right, brother
Jade: I don't like it here at all, it stinks
Lorenzo: Careful, rain *they'll get wet*
Randall: What a disgrace
Jade: I wish you could see the look on your face ahahaha
Randall: Stand back *grabs his arm and pulls him*
Arcas, the King of Tempestas and a few of his men were coming down from behind the cliffs. Randal looked closer and saw a phoenix coming with a ship giving him weapons
Lorenzo: How can the scoundrel do this to his own people?
Jade: I'll leave him a good message
Randall: Calm down, we need to collect some evidence my father wanted.
Jade was thinking about something while looking at the castle walls.
Jade: We can see better from up there, come with me.
Lorenzo: No, you little devil, come here.
Jade had already grown the vines and started climbing.
Randall: Damn it!
Randall and Lorenzo go up to him.
Randall: What the hell are you doing, we're going to get caught.
Jade: Calm down, look *Arkas took goods from another ship shows*
Lorenzo: What, is he scamming the phoenixes with them?
Randall: I don't think so, they're separate like us, they're not a single society
Jade: And I think he takes the goods of different groups and gives them to the other
Lorenzo: The swindler is selling the goods at high prices as if they were his own, the scoundrel
Randall: That's enough evidence, but not enough to use against them
Jade: Oh my god Queen Mercia!
Lorenzo: What? Stop yelling at him!
Randall: Jade?
Jade: We need to get inside the castle, I bet there's a ledger in the bedroom
Lorenzo: Nonsense, every kingdom already has one
Jade: No, I'm not talking about that, phoenixes keep track of everything and are looters, there should be another ledger, it should be kept in a spot where no one can enter
Randall: You're a genius *hugs*
Jade: Hey, okay, seriously, if you act like this I'll believe you've softened *laughs*
Lorenzo: How do we get into the damn room?
A voice is heard
Guard: Who's there?
Randall:Oh damn it hide
Jade steps forward hiding her face while Lorenzo and Randall hide
Jade: Oh guard William?
Guard William: Yeah who are you you can't be here you're not allowed
Jade: Oh you idiot how could you forget we were supposed to meet here tonight? *angry*
Guard William: Tonight? Oh damn it Mary I forgot
Jade: You drunk come here *flirty*
Randall and Lorenzo come up behind William the guard and hit him in the head with a stone from the wall just as he approaches him
Jade: Oh my god couldn't you hurry up a little bit?
Lorenzo: So you drunk
Randall: What do you know little lady
Jade: Oh shut up you freaks *laughs*
They enter the castle and silently walk through the corridors. After skillfully taking out the guards in each hallway, it's time to enter the Queen's chamber.
Lorenzo: What's that noise?
Randall: How soon could King Arkas have returned?
Jade: Stop talking nonsense, how are we going to get in?
Lorenzo: Room service?
Randall: Is there room service in this stupid castle?
Jade: Just think, kids, I want to get the hell out of here without getting caught.
Lorenzo: Can't we sneak out?
Jade: How?
Randall sees the kids running down the hallway and
Randall: I think I have an idea *sly smile*
They agree to raid the Queen's chamber in exchange for candy for the kids. The children quickly enter the room and climb up to the queen's bed
Queen Mercia: What!? What's going on here!
Phoenix King: Who are these Mercia?
Queen Mercia: I don't know, oh get off me
---------------
Lorenzo: Oh my god Mercia is cheating on him with the Phoenix King
Jade: Oh that's disgusting
Randall: Focus quick
They quickly sneak in and find the notebook they're looking for while the kids distract the queen and leave.
Jade: It was really crazy
Lorenzo: I would like to see the face of King Arkas when he returns
Randall: We don't have time for this
Jade: Oh come on let's have some fun Ranny
They hide in the corner together and watch, King Arkas enters the room
Queen Mercia: Oh damn it!
Phoenix King: Oh Arkas, so you've come
King Arkas: What the hell are you doing with my wife?
Queen Mercia: This wretched man seduced me Arkas
Phoenix King: Is that what you think? A moment ago, when you were saying "oh yes, you are my king", you didn't seem seduced at all
King Arkas: Enough! Guards!
Guards: Order, my King
King Arkas: Put this guy on his ship, send his wings back on the road, and throw Queen Mercia into the dungeon
Queen Mercia: But Arkas! no no no!
----------
L&J&R: Ahahaha
Lorenzo: Good, so they're not innocent
Randall: Come on, we should go back
Jade: You always spoil the party, but *laughs*
When they get back to the castle, they give King Mark the information he wants and Randall stays with the King for a few more minutes
Randall: Sir, what are you planning to do with this evidence that will drag us into war?
King Mark: I'm thinking of gathering all the kingdoms and uniting our forces
Randall: That's not a good idea, whoever gets the chance will attack the other during this chaos
King Mark: Good, because that's exactly what I want, one kingdom, one government
Randall: What if we're not the only ones left standing?
King Mark: We won't be alone...
