Royalty

Chapter 6: Home Sweet Home

The team, now with Fiyeree was soon reaching Kalador. Kalador was a modern and advanced city, filled with millions of people and flying cars. The royal Palace was a sight that could easily be seen from hundreds of miles away. It was white with turquoise stripes, and a huge dome in the middle of the palace. As they entered the borders of the city, they landed on a royal landing which was made of whie marble and golden stripes.

Kalador, Jupiter

Charlie looked across the window, they were finally landing. It had been a while since Aria last spoke to him and he was starting to get worried. Was it because of Hayley or the phone call? The only thing Charlie said over the phone was offering Hayley to join them in their mission, even though he didn't ask for consent, he knew what was good and bad for the team. Could she possibly know that he stole files from the ULE?

The rest of the team walked out, accompanied by the royal guards and brought into Aria's quarters. Charlie didn't really know why they were back at Kalador. The translated Suncryphon said that they needed six different pieces of the puzzle spread across the universe and he knew that one day, he would have to tell the others the truth and he would rather do it sooner than later. He would tell them soon. He thought one last time before catching up with the others.

Sometime later...

It had been a few days since they arrived and Fiyeree genuinely thought that there would be more action. The only thing they did was look for clues on the Suncryphon in the Royal Library but unsurprisingly, they found nothing. Luckily, Aria found a few translators that spoke Jaikinese and they have been working non stop to translate the Suncryphon but so far they have only translated two words.

The rest of the team was also losing hope, except for Atticus. Day and night, he has been staying up and looking for clues about Luca, his dedication impressing Fiyeree.

"Fiyeree, we found something," Aria said. Aria led Fiyeree into a small room labelled as 'Meeting room', and to her surprise, the rest of the team were in there including three translators and Tim, the Head Guard.

"We found a breakthrough." A translator said as she held up a small note in her hand, "The Six pieces that we were able to translate were, firstly; The Eagle's eye."

"Secondly, the Mask Of Decree." The second translator said, interrupting the first.

"And the Skull of the Underground." The last translator continued.

Atticus made a face, "Where are we supposed to get those?" He asked as a few others nodded in agreement.

"The Mask of Decree was a mask that could grant it's user extraordinary powers, but it would also control the user." Charlie said, "I know my history."

Aria was shocked by this. Charlie wasn't the type of person who aced his exams, and even less, history. He seemed to know what was going on, unlike everyone else.

"The skull of the Underground? There could be millions of them." Fiyeree said, breaking the silence. Since Fiyeree went back to her Village to rule at an early age, she didn't get as much education as the others did.

"We better start searching then," Tim, the head guard said, finally speaking up. Aria forgot he was even there, he was mostly there for security rather than input.

"Charlie, you're with me and we're going to be researching the Eagle's eye." Aria commanded, "Fiyeree and Atticus, the Skull of the Underground. Good job translators, tell me if you find another breakthrough. Or disaster."

Not long after, Charlie and Aria were back in the Royal Library, looking for some information. They both remained silent for a few minutes, before Charlie said, "I found something."
