Two Different Worlds

CHAPTER 24: The One For You

Location: Obscurity Forest, Night Kingdom

Hannah and Mila became friends, being the two noble ladies from outside of the forest. "You and Nathaniel were talking about adopting Diana that last time and well from what I've seen and experienced don't you think she's too much work?" Mila asked since Hannah was younger than her and seemed to be a bit more calm to be able to handle a child like Diana.

"No, Diana is quite the sweetheart. She's always trying to help me when she visits," Hannah replied, glancing over at Diana who was playing with Oliver. "Really? Hm, then what I'm I doing wrong?" Mila asked, confused. "You're dating Winston and he will most likely move out to Canterlot to be with you." Nathaniel replied, joining them. "I don't mind if he brings her along," Mila replied. "He won't. He refused us from adopting her since he wants her to stay close to Naeva, Canterlot is further than Terrana." Nathaniel shrugged. "I don't want to separate them," Mila answered, glancing over at Diana again. "Also I don't think Winston has ever really considered adopting her." Nathaniel replied as Diana ran over to Hannah and Nathaniel ignored Mila's presence.

"Naeva and William disappeared but I wanted to know if I can get one of those things Oliver is eating." She said looking back between the two. "And Winston?" Hannah asked. "He went to look for Naeva and William." she replied putting her hands behind her back. "Oh... um okay well yeah you can get one, just bring one for me I want to taste it," Nathaniel replied. Diana smiled. "Okay, you want one too Hannah?" She asked, taking Hannah's hand. "I'm good thank you dear," Hannah said smiling. "Okay" Diana said, skipping away until Nathaniel pulled her back. "You didn't ask Mila," he said, facing Diana towards Mila. "...She can get it herself," Diana said looking away.

"Diana, she's our guest, please be nice" He said. "Okay~ Mila you may find the sweets on the table there please treat yourself." Diana said with a curtsy before walking away. Hannah and Nathaniel stood baffled not expecting that. "It's alright guys I really don't want any," Mila said. "Sorry, Mila," Nathaniel said, feeling bad seeing Mila trying to get on Diana's good side. "Didn't you say she used to hate William too, They get along now don't they?" Hannah said, trying to keep her hopes up. "Yes... She calls him mom now," Nathaniel replied as Diana arrived and handed him his piece. "...Is he back?" Diana glanced around.

"Who?" Hannah asked. "My mom, he said he would fix my hair since Naeva messed it up and Winston's been busy with that one," She replied pointing at Mila while biting the snack. "Can I do it?" Hannah asked. "Yes, please," Diana replied, nodded. "Why do you call him mom?" Mila asked. "It suits him, Winston is my dad." Diana replied as Hannah did her hair. "What about the Queen?" Mila continued. "She's too bossy," Diana answered. "What about me I can try to convince Winston to-" Mila began before noticing Diana glaring at her. "I rather you parish," She said, wrinkling her nose. Nathaniel remembered the book he had read by Frederick and began to notice her getting ready to spit fire.

He kneeled in front of Diana and fixed her bangs to the side. "No fire," he said as Diana looked away. "All done," Hannah said as Dianna hugged her and ran back to continue playing with Oliver. "Where is the little boy you guys are caring for?" Mila asked, unaware of what Diana was gonna do. "Stephen? Prince Frederick had been trying to start his self defense classes," Nathaniel said as Stephen flew down from the window of the castle. "I'll take it back! Be my dad, my grandpa is horrible!" Stephen said, hugging Nathaniel as Frederick hopped on the tree branches and then to the ground.

"Stephen, I understand you're scared but it's necessary to know how to block attacks," Frederick said as he hid behind Nathaniel. "Done, learned, I want to continue reading now," he said, holding on to Nathaniel. "You can't use people as shields, now come on. It's really easy," Frederick said, hoping he walks over on his own. "NO! I don't like it, that's too dangerous," he replied. "Nathaniel knows this stuff too, come on," Frederick continued, taking a deep breath. "Sorry, guys he got scared the moment I showed him the armory to pick a shield. We didn't even start."
