"What are we looking for again?" Helen asked, I had to duck as she flew over my head, flying up to the 3rd story shelves.
"We are trying to shed some light on these marks, and our kingdoms." Diego called from the 1st story. He and Harry had the most recent books that probably wouldn't have much on our topic. Helen had the 3rd story because there were no ladders and she could fly, me and Katie were stuck in the middle.
"I think it's really cool you have so many books, Katie." I whispered quietly so the others couldn't hear.
"I't not that cool, ya spade." Katie retorted, like it was some insult.
" I don't care, just stay away from Diego. You don't even have a chance, so don't think you do. If that's how it's gonna be, you'll be playing with fire. So expect to get burned." she finished as she walked off to a table to read the books she collected.
"Whatever, bitch." I mumble. Turning back to the shelf, I stumble upon a book with a red spade on it, and three others with the other card suits. I take the 4 books to a table FAR away from Katie. I open the spade book first, I could tell it was in a different language, but I could understand it. It explained in detail how the 4 kingdoms came about which everyone knows, diamond got talent, heart got smart, club got pretty, and spade got hell. This book also said something of a special base in the neutral center. Even so, it was the last sentence that caught me.
In conclusion, we hope the princess, Kay Spade, will help us rise out of the dark pit we are consumed in for our true pourpose.
I never knew I had such a burden on my shoulders. I continued to read the other 3 books. They all told the history of our kingdoms and our families. Still, the last said it all.
In conclusion, we hope the princess, Katie Club, will shine the light on our lustrous ways.
In conclusion, we hope the twins, Henry and Helen Heart, will teach us the ways of the world.
In conclusion, we hope the prince, Diego Diamond, will unite our kingdom in harmony.
I was kind of puzzled by Diego's prophecy thingy, but it was still what we were looking for
"Guys, I found something!" I yell through the library. Once they all ran to me. I show Henry and Helen the book with the yellow heart, Katie the green club, and Diego the blue Diamond. I tuck the red spade book in my backpack.
"This is the Alice language, can you guys read this too?" I asked.
"Yeah." we all respond.
"What?" Katie asked.
"It's been a dead language for over a century." Harry stated.
"I didn't even know this existed."Diego claimed. How can I read this? I wondered as my wrist felt hot, I knew it was gonna be glowing again. So I turn my arm over so the others could see.
"Were supposed to understand it," Helen said.
"just like the propicies stated, the 4 royal kids. We are here to humble, teach, grow, and unite the kingdoms into one." she finished.
"So if we can read this, can others too?" Katie piped up. Before we could say anything, she called in a tutor and asked him to read it.
"I'm sorry miss, but I have never seen this in all my 60 years teaching our kingdoms." He said, bowing and leaving.
"Let's hold onto these, they could be valuable." Katie finished, turning back to our group.
"It's getting late, we can go to the center tomorrow and find this base thing." Diego stated.
"Ok, me and Helen get library, Kay guest room 1, Diego guest room 2, and Katie gets her room." Harry ordered.
"Oooorrrrr," Katie said seductivly.
"Me and Diego could share a room, and you and Kay can get the guest rooms." I roll my eyes at the last part.
"Ok," I start, ready to turn Katie into a beet.
"Just don't rock the bed to much, you fuckers." I finish as Diego laughs uncontrollably. I felt overwhelmingly proud when I see the disgust and shock in Katie's expression at my choice of words. Harry and Helen were laughing to, not because they got the joke, but because Diego hit his knee on the table laughing. I even chuckle at the sight of Katie's face.
"Very funny, Kay," Diego heaved, drying his eyes from laughing so hard.
"but I think we need to get you a swear jar." he chuckled.
"I think that's a good way to end the night." Helen said, going back into Harry, who then closed his eye and stood.
"Goodnight everyone." he called as a maid escorted him to is room. I give a big yawn, as we all go our separate ways. I, following a butler and Diego following Katie. It was my first deep sleep since this whole thing started.
