Royal Secrets (On hold)

Chapter I, Part I: Order of the Stone

The entire ride was quiet, I was starting to wonder how Axel and Magnus manage to out run the knights on their feet for almost three hours that day without getting tired, especially since the knights were riding horses and Axel and Magnus were caring loads of gold they had stolen, that could have weight a ton. I just decided to not think about it and be thank full they manage to succeed.

Just as we were getting closer, we heard galloping behind us. We stopped and turned around, we saw a knight coming toward us. I pulled out my sword just in case it was going to attack us, but a familiar voice stopped us from snapping his neck.

"Guys! It's me."

I sighed and put my sword away. "Geez Dan(A/N: dandido's OC) you almost gave us heart attacks, I thought we were being followed."

Dan didn't remove the helmet, but he just nodded. "Sorry, I just came to tell you that Gabriel and I won't make to dinner tonight, The king gave us a night watch job tonight." He said bitterly as his horse neighed.

I nodded, i was kinda sadden to know that both him and Gabriel won't join us for dinner tonight. "It's alright Dan. It's understandable, we don't want you two to blow your cover, go back before the king suspects anything." 

Dan nodded and turned his horse around and galloped back to the castle. Dan and Gabriel are members of ours as well. They were both spies and were disguised as black knights in order to help the streets in a way they can and to get information from the king when he tries to send attacks. Sometimes they can't join us for breakfast, lunch or dinner due to the giving him shifts to roam the streets (That pig!). We can't risk getting their cover blown and get them killed, so they have no choice but to follow king Sylvester's orders.

After all that, Olivia, Ellegaard and myself continued our way home and half an hour and a few minutes, we reached our base, or AKA, our home. The rest of the order and myself lived here since we were kids. I really haven't said this, but I might as well say it, but our parents were the ones who were the first Order of the Stone. My father and mother were the leaders, at least they were until they met their faith. If it weren't for that traitor, they would have still been alive.

I do not know who the traitor was, but I learned that he was killed as a reward for bringing them in. That's what he got for letting greed overtake him. I pushed those memories aside and smiled when the three of us heard oinking. 

I was filled with glee when I saw our pet pig, Reuben. The  fiercest, strongest pig in history. We saved his life when he was just a tiny piglet. The poor guy lost his family after the king told his men to kill them for food. We took Reuben before we got caught and took him in. That wasn't long when we lost our parents.

"Hey there boy. How you been?" I asked as he squealed in delight, telling me that his day was wonderful.

I chuckled at his reaction. Olivia, Ellegaard and I got off the horses and went to the stables we build not to long ago. We put the horses inside and locked the gate. Jessica came not to long after, she had hay to feed the horses. She smiled and gave the horses their dinner. Watching them eat is making me hungry, and I prove my point when my stomach growled rather too loudly which made me blush in embarrassment and made the girls (and Reuben) laugh.

"Seems like someone is hungry." Laughed Jessica as she wiped the fake tears.

"Do you blame me? I haven't eaten today except for that apple the morning." I chuckled and rubbed my stomach playfully.

"You need to eat more then. You have so much muscles, yet you barely have any fat in you." She joked which made all of us laugh.

Although, she wasn't joking about me being muscular. All of us guys have muscles, not a single trace of fat in us. In mostly because we work out and do tougher missions than the girls.

Once the laughter was done, we went inside the house so that we can help make dinner. While the three of us were out, Magnus and Axel brought home a buck and Ivor was skinning the animal. Maya came not too long and bought lots of bread and fresh vegetables and fruit from the castle's kitchen. Soren, Aiden and Gill brought some of our vegetables from our crops and helped Jessica wash them. Olivia and Ellegaard are right now deciding what we should give to the townsfolks and what should we eat. While they did that, I was helping Ivor skin the animal so that I can get the meat in order to cook it.

"Has anyone seen Dan or Gabriel?" Asked Soren as he just came back from the crops to collect another pile of vegetables and noticed Dan wasn't here.

"They won't join us tonight. That bastard put them to work at the night shift tonight." I said rather bitterly.

As soon as I mentioned him, everyone here made a sour face. The king is no one except an excuse for a human being. He may have his wealth, his wife and kids and his guards, but if he had none of that, he would have been nothing but a weakling.

"Enough talk about that selfish dirty pig!" Muttered Jessica which made Reuben frown. "No offence Ruben." She said quickly which made him oink in annoyance before he went to the living room.

"Can someone go feed Reuben?" I asked as Ivor and I finished skinning the buck.

"I will" Called out Olivia as she grabbed some vegetables from the barrels.

...

At last dinner was done. The scent was delightful and we have a great pile of left overs for tomorrow. Maya also pulled out something that made us smile, a bottle of wine. We all had a champagne flute filled with wine and we held it up as we were still on our feet.

"To us. As the new generation of the Order of the Stone, we will free all of Minecraftia from that foul human being known as a king."

"To the Order of the Stone!" We shouted as our glasses claps together making a clunk noise.

Soon all of us drank some of the wine and ate our dinner. Soon Minecraftia, we will free you from king Sylvester's wrath and we will have new leaders how will lead us in a better path. Just like the former kings and queens.
