72HOURS OF CASTLE

Chapter 36: His senses and intuition.



The three people, Ace, Owen and Amber-ruby returned to Irischester due to the call of the king telling Ace to come back because it's important.

They dropped Owen in Nightinon and directed themselves to Orlie-gham.

When they arrived in the castle, it seems to be empty. The castle of orlie-gham that used to be full of servants going here and there, the guards, knights training and the people of the royal court but today the castle was lifeless.

"Why is it so quiet?" Ace was intrigued. They looked through the window.

Him that spent his childhood here, he knew perfectly that the castle wasn't as it was before.

From the barnyard to the high courtyard of the castle , nobody was seen.

They got out of the car and Ace told to his driver to go to his mansion , the driver executed.

"It's strange, something is going wrong" Ace said , frowning his face . He felt a weird sensation. His senses were alerting him that something wrong is happening.

They climbed the steps. Climbing each steps felt to them millions of seconds. Amber-ruby didn't know why but her heart was pounding, racing as if she did a marathon.

They directed themselves to the crown room. Ace opened the door but they saw nobody.

"Where's my family?" He narrowed his face , asking it more to himself . When suddenly someone said.

"Brother!!!"

The voice of the person made both Ace and Amber-ruby to froze instantly, they were surprised. They turned robotically, gently to the person. The question that was both in their head was 'What is she doing here'

"Logane?!" They both called surprised .

She jumped in the arms of Ace. She felt relieved and sad at the same time.

"I thought that something happened to you. I'm happy that both of you had nothing" she said on Ace's dress still hugging him.

"What are you talking about and what are you doing here Logane?" Ace asked confused.

She allowed him. Her eyes were filled of sadness and guilt.

"What's happening Logane?" He questioned.

"Why is the castle like this" he added , he hold her two hands.

"You weren't suppose to be here Logane, what happened?"

"It's Uncle Garyl" her voice trembled "he's the one that brought me back here." Tears felt to her cheek.

"I'm sorry brother! He had discovered our secret"she said feeling guilty.

Ace hugged her back. Caressing her hairs in order to calm her.

"Chute! chute! Calm down it's not your fault. How did he discovered it?" He said softly.

"I was on a trip and he met me. He called my name and I responded.

FLASHBACK

"Logane?"

The young girl instinctively turned to the person, that called her with much informality .

"Yes?" She replied with a smile but at the instant she saw that it was her Uncle, her smiled vanished.

She dried to run away but she couldn't.

"If you're a Logane then who's the person that is in the castle" Garyl wondered.

END OF FLASHBACK.

"I have even tried to call you but you didn't pickup the phone" Logane explained.

"I saw nothing. They were no missed call" he said

"How come?" Amber-ruby asked

"Something is really going wrong" he confirmed again.

"And the parent? Where are them?"he asked.

"It's the King and Queen for you" Someone said suddenly .

They turned to the familiar voice and saw a Garyl with a large smirk, he was followed by the king and the queen.

Amber-ruby in the other way her heart was racing so fast. Her secret has been discovered.

"You deceived us , my son. Bringing an imposter in the castle" said the king with a disappoint expression.

"You know the rule of the kingdom, Ace. No stranger is allow to enter in the castle and know how we rule. You broke the first rule of the kingdom" the queen said furious

"He did it to protect you people" Amber-ruby finally spoke.

"And who authorized you to speak?" The queen said with arrogance.

"Excuse me your majesty , I'm Amber-ruby danielson and your….." she couldn't finish her phrase

"I don't want to know your name, who you come and where you come too. You're just a waste product, stranger" the queen said.

The words of the queen shocked amber-ruby she stood there silent.

Ace knew that something wasn't going as usual. His senses and his intuition never lied to him.

"Mother, stop! She's not responsible" Ace said.

He pointed at his uncle

"I did it to protect you guys from him. He want the crown and for that he is capable of doing anything" his voice was still calm.

"Me?" Garyl took a grammatical and shocked expression.

"Garyl told us that was what you were going to say" the king said

Garyl walked toward Ace .

"Why would I do it? I did 30 years without thinking of the crown, it's not now that I will seize it" he said ironically.

"Do you have any proof?" Asked the king.

"The day that amber-ruby was kidnapped it has been order by him!" Ace explained.

"And where are those guys? You are still talking with no proof " the king said.

"I don't have but amber-ruby got documents confirming it that he had an arrangement with the yemetians for an army"

"Enough!!!" The king said furiously.

"Garyl told me that this girl use the magic of the YEMET KINGDOM, she's having one yemetian . She asked her help to bewitched you for her to take the control of the kingdom since you're the futur king then later do seizure of power" explained the king

"What?!!!! No that's totally false" Amber-ruby exclaimed, she was stunned.

"Aren't you friend with a yemetian called Indra?" Asked Garyl

Ace looked at her, he knew that Amber-ruby has not done all of these but she lied to him that she didn't know about the yemetians and their kingdom.

"You are friend with a yemetian?" Ace asked back too.

She turned to him.

"Yes, it's true I know Indra but for the rest I knew nothing Ace. Indra doesn't has super powers. Trust me" she explained.

"It's enough. You, stranger and imposter Amber-ruby. You are sentenced to death for identity theft and of treachery . My decision is irrevocable" said the king with a firm voice.

Amber-ruby, Ace and Logane their eyes were widely opened, shocked.

Garyl on the other side was very glad, he sketched a mischievous discret smile. His plan was going very well.
