Chapter 6 They Came For Me

So not even Athena or him could know what is written inside that paper for now and for now they just have to wait to know what Mazi's reaction would be. 
So Athena and Mezie watched him till he finished reading the write-up and then looked at Mezie making Mezie to stare at him somehow.
"Heyaah!!!" Mazi cheered and lifted him up out of happiness and slowly keeps him down once again.
"Wow, so you are the son of Ọma? she was a very good friend of mine, I thought she has forgotten me" Mazi said to him as Mezie smiled.
"How is she doing?" Mazi asked as Mezie looks down and looking at him and with that reaction of him Mazi could understand that she is dead.
"Am sorry kid" He said to him as he rubs his head and so Mezie looks at Athena.
"Mr Mazi, meet my friend Athena" Mezie said as Athena approached and so they shook each other.
"You are both welcome" Mazi said as Athena keeps smiling at him.
"Thank you sire" Athena said

QUEENS-PACK.
Veronica and her Warriors were finally returning from the war against Queens-Town with corpse of Sif lying on the stretcher.
They have already approached the gate of the palace and without a waste of time the guards opened the gate for them and all the Warriors stepped in while the guards seal up the gate again.
Queen Minerva quickly stepped out of the house to welcome them, at first she was however just too happy that they were back but her mood quickly changed when she noticed that one of them is down.
She slowly approached and looks at her and she can very well recognised that it was Sif which is of course one of her best and strongest Warriors.
She stared at Sif sorrowfully for a while before looking up to Veronica.
"I hope it what it?" Queen Minerva asked as Veronica looks up to her.
"It was almost worth it, we have fought and massacred all their armies, so I tell you that we won Queens-Town but we haven't defeated them" Veronica said and that left Queen Minerva looking at her out of confusion.
"What do you mean that you won and you didn't defeat them?" Minerva asked as Veronica stepped closer.
"They have a very strong wall that we cannot bypass, it was solidly built and there was no way we can get into the palace, she was in there with her daughter"
"But I assure you, if we can go back to that place with Sylvie then we will have the queen and the princess alive to serve you as your slave"
"We have already defeated them and their armies so they are left defenceless now apart from the wall of their tower" Veronica said as Queen Minerva nods at her.
"You have done well Veronica, prepare a funeral pyre let's pay lady Sif a respected burial and then I want to have you all inside my chamber let's talk" Queen Minerva ordered and they bows for her.
And so she left and entered her house why the Warriors begin to prepare a funeral pyre for Sif.

SELDOM.
Mezie and Athena was carrying a box each and they were walking after Mazi as they are passing through the hall that leads directly to the king's throne room.
Seldom is a very rich kingdom and was almost as rich as Kings-Heaven but Kings-Heaven is however still much richer than them, always ahead and that's why King Hala have to respect king Jerome and let Tennyson go Scot-free after violating the law of his Kingdom.
Though the passage hall which Mazi, Athena and Mezie was passing through was built strongly with about many pillars which was placed just one after the other.
And so as they were passing through that passage, Mezie looked down and discovered that they are on the second floor of the building which is of course the last floor and the place where the king's throne room is located.
So not long they reached the gate which the guards did not hesitate to open the door for them after all they have a well respected person in their midst, which is Mazi.
When the guards opened the door they entered inside and King Hala was on his throne and so Mazi approached and keeps the box in the king's presence and so Mezie and Athena kept theirs too.
"You have done well, and you have earned more of my trust now for protecting my treasure for this long while, I'll forever be grateful for that" King Hala said as Mazi bows before him.
"And I think I will have to reward you with one of the boxes, you can take one of them" King Hala declared making Mazi to smile and bows for him while thanking him.
"You have done well my king, I will really appreciate this your good work, thank you" Mazi said and carried the box as he walks away and so Athena and Mezie joined him.
And they were just taking a few steps forward when the king interrupted but Mezie sighted Queen Merl walking into the palace with her daughter Mera and so he was so frightened as he knew that they have come for him.
"Who are these people that came with you? I haven't seen them inside this place with you before? seems they are new?" King Hala asked as Mazi nods.
"This is Me..." he was still about to introduce Mezie but Interrupted him.
"Meck? yeah my name is Meck" Mezie said which left Athena and Mazi looking at him in surprise.
"Oh that's nice, and you? you are?" The king referred to Athena.
"Am Athena your grace, we only came to visit" Athena said and the king nodded while staring at her with a kind of eyes at which she as well can feel that it's attraction, she is getting attracted to the king.
But she however found it irritating because Hala is almost an old man even though he is not that old.
"Okay, you are all welcome to my kingdom, feel free here, this is your home too and whatever you need you can let me know" Hala said as Athena nods.
"Thank you your Grace" She responded with a fake smile and she grabs Mezie's hand and they began to walk away.
"Thank you sire" Mazi said and Hala nods and so he turned and left, but immediately he was living a guard stepped into the throne room.
"You have a visitor sire" the guard said and the king stepped down from his throne and followed the guard to see this visitor.

Meanwhile Mezie was hurrying back to Mazi's chamber as he knew that he is no longer safe here with the presence of Queen Mera.
Though Athena was walking after him as well.
"Mezie I don't understand what is wrong with you? are you sure you are okay? why did you have to lie to the king about your name?" Athena asked as Mezie points at the ground for her as they are still on the passage.
"Did you see that woman there? she is a queen and she is the queen of Queens-Town! and she is here looking for me! and once she found me trust me I am dead!"
"So if you know what you are going to do to protect me then please do it and not question me around!" Mezie yelled at her as he keep running to Mazi's chamber.
And finally they ran into the chamber and Kris stared at them wondering why they looking so hurried.
"Mezie is everything alright?" Kris asked as Mezie waves his head.
"Nope! you see those people outside! they have come for me" Mezie said as he walks to the window where he began to peep at Queen Merl and Princess Mera.
"Which people are you talking about?" Kris asked out of surprise and so she equally joined him at the window to find out these people that he is so afraid of.
"But why are they actually looking for you?" Kris asked when she saw Queen Merl and her daughter waiting for the king like a special visitor.
"I think I'll tell you that after they are gone, after you have given me enough protection" Mezie responded.

However Queen Merl was still waiting outside with her daughter till king Hala stepped out of his castle.
"Hello, old friend" King Hala said out of excitement and was wondering why she has come to visit.
"Hello... Hala, you have looked much older than I thought you are" Queen Merl said as Hala smiled at her.
"Hmm, I think that should end in your thought because I am not that old but however can I see that you have such a younger pretty vibrant young Queen Merl standing besides you?" Hala said referring to princess Mera who smiled at him.
"Oh... meet my daughter, Mera and Mera meet king Hala" Queen Merl said as Mera bows before him.
"It's an honor meeting you sire" princess Mera said as King Hala smiled and looks up to Queen Merl once again. 
"So why the sudden visit? is everything all right?" King Hala asked.
"Wow, you have really changed King Hala of Seldom, so you will not offer your precious visitor a seat first?" Queen Merl said as she folds her hands together.
"Am sorry, pardon my manners Queen so can we go inside now?" King Hala requested and stretched his hand and she held him and they began to step inside as if they are husband and wife.
Princes Mera was equally walking after them when she looked at her side just to discover that Mezie was waving at her from the other side of the house and then she smiled.
"Um, sorry mum, I don't know if I can take a scroll a little around the palace?" Mera said and without hesitating King Hala gave her the permission moreover he was looking for a chance like this to discuss something more important with her mum.
"Of course, you are free to go wherever you want in my kingdom princess while the guards will escort you!" King Hala said as Mera looks at her mum and Merl nodded at her.
Although Queen Merl thought that she was sticking to the plan and she want to go and look for Mezie with style.
And so Mera nodded at her mum too making it look non suspect for her mum not to notice that she has found Mezie. 
And so Queen Merl stepped inside with the King while Mera quickly rushed the other side to meet Mezie.

"Mezie what the hell are you doing? I thought you said they were coming after you so why display yourself then?" Kris asked out of surprise as Mezie was still waving and calling princess Mera.
"Yeah, that is what I said but she is my friend" Mezie said as he looks outside again and discover that she is already approaching with the guards.
"Go tell her to keep the guard outside" Mezie said to Kris and Kris quickly ran out of the house as Mera was approaching so Mera met her at the door.
"Where is him?" Princess Mera asked as Kris folds her hand.
"You alone! is needed in there" Kris said and Mera looks at her guards and they holds on and so she looks up to Kris again and so Kris opened the door and she entered.
And just setting her eyes fully again at Mezie her eyes were filled with tears.
She waved her head as they quickly rushed and embraced each other as the princess knees down trying to be on the same height with him.
And then Kris looks up to Athena who was staring at them in surprise because none of them knows Mera.
