Approaching The Duel
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56The doctor had somehow managed to get enough blood from the dragon to bring Mister back around, even though the nurse had a horrible incident with it during the effort. She lost a finger but she was going to be fine otherwise. Justin was just stressed, hung over, and fatigued. He had been treated and sent back to his rooms at the castle to rest for a while, and Pearl was resting and healing nicely in the lab, waiting for the medical team to arrive and move her and Mister to the hospital wing.
The doctor was absolutely wiped out and he was more than ready for a drink. He checked on everyone and then he excused himself. He went straight to his office and he filled a glass with brandy as fast as he could. He took a long slow sip of his drink as he loosened his tie and sat down heavily in his favorite chair. Finally, a little peace and quiet.
It wasn't two minutes later that he heard Leroy going off again. The doctor thought to himself ho

Deena, Jason, Cat and Josh waited for about an hour for Goergio and Joy before they tried to call. They got no answer from either so they went ahead and ate. It was a pleasant atmosphere and everyone was chatty...except for Jason. Deena noticed that he was quiet and that he didn't really eat very well. Deena excused the two of them and she took Jason for a walk through the courtyard garden at the hotel alone. "What's on your mind scotty?" Deena asked Jason. She sometimes called him that playfully to break tension. He looked at her like he had been caught doing something wrong. She laughed and explained that she had noticed his off behavior. He laughed nervously and admitted that he did have something on his mind. "Tell me, my love," Deena said to her husband. "Deena, I know you love your friends, but I'm really ready to go home. I want to check on our home and our horses and I want to sleep in my own bed. And...I think I want to
The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky Biding Our Time
Caine and John took turns sitting up on watch all through the night. They had no idea that they were surrounded with a small army of Georgio's men. They talked a little here and there but they were also well aware of the fact that they could be seen and heard by the enemy, so they were very careful when they did talk. The night felt like it might actually go on forever. The anticipation was starting to build inside of them both, making them extremely antsy. Caine had moments where he could barely sleep, and John didn't do much more than close his eyes here and there. Eventually the morning did come, and just like he promised, Mister sent them food. Plenty of good fresh food, but they were afraid to eat it. He could see them on the monitors carefully inspecting and smelling everything. That made Mister laugh because he knew that they were afraid of him when they did that. He hit the speaker button and he said, "I'm not going to poison you. I want to kill you wit
The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky Finding The Answers
At the airport there was a lot of hugging and tears, as Deena and Jason bid everyone farewell, and they headed through the gates. Deena stopped and turned around. She looked at Della and she said, "remember I will be back in a few months to check on you. There is nothing more important in this whole world right now than the safety and wellbeing of that little baby, and Della I expect you to always keep that in mind while I'm gone." "I promise sister," Della said with tears streaming down her face. They instantly ran to each other and hugged super tight one more time. Cat couldn't keep it together anymore and she joined in the crying and hugging too, which led Joy over as well. Josh and Jason joined for a moment to top it all of. Georgio cleared his throat and everyone snapped back to their senses. "Ok guys, let's get it together," Joy said, as she wiped her face with a tissue and then began handing the tissues out. Deena and Jason loo
The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky You Did What?
Della had no idea of what this woman was trying to show her, but she had no intentions of backing down now, either. She stepped past the queen and into the lobby of the hospital wing. It literally looked like a tornado had hit it. It was all but destroyed, littered with debris everywhere. Everything was thrown about and out of place and the walls and windows were broken and busted. Della looked around in disbelief as she suddenly heard voices coming from somewhere in the back of the building. She stopped and listened closely. She started to make out the sounds of a man's voice. Something about it was very familiar but she couldn't quite put her finger on exactly what it was. She heard it again but a little louder this time. Della's blood suddenly turned cold and she froze in place. It had hit her. She knew who's voice that was. She heard it again and she took off running in the direction of where it was coming from. She was jumping an
The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky This Isn't Over Yet
Joy, Georgio, Cat, and Josh caught up to Della at the castle just in time to see her and the queen exit the carriage and go inside of the hospital wing. They spotted them from across the castle grounds, so Della couldn't hear them when they yelled for her to stop. The four of them ran across the yard with no interference at all and they followed Della and the queen inside. Della had already ran to find her father when they met up with the queen in the hallway of the destroyed hospital wing. "Queen Esmeralda, please, I beg of you, where is my daughter?" Joy ran up to her, dropped to her knees and begged the queen. "I'm glad you could make it, Joy," the queen said, "you may want to follow Della that way," Queen Esmeralda told Joy as she helped her to her feet. "But I must insist that you stay quiet, hidden, and do not interfere. These are truths that you need to know as well," The queen explained to Joy as she led the way to Robert's hidden room. &n
The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky Maybe Not
Morning came faster than anyone wanted it to. Caine woke up to the beautiful smell of Della's hair. He thought that he was dreaming at first, but when he opened his eyes, she was really there. It was a very welcome surprise, because he had missed her more than it even seemed possible. Della felt him looking at her while she slept, and she opened her eyes slowly. She smiled and blinked a few times,to be sure that it was real. Caine smiled back and he leaned in and kissed her. Della moaned through the kiss and she melted as she pulled him closer. "Please don't do this," she began to cry softly. "Please don't leave us alone in this world without you," she begged her love. It was almost more than he could bare. "Della don't cry, you know I have no choice. I need for you to understand that I'm doing this for you and the baby. Also, I don't plan on being the dead one at the end of the day," he said as he hugged her as tightly as he could and he kissed her forehead.
The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky Get up Mister
Morning finally came for the doctor after he worked on Mister all night long. He thought he was going to be dead on his feet before he ever got an ounce of sleep again. He staggered away from Mister's bedside and he landed hard in the chair by the desk. Pearl had just left to go have breakfast with Justin and as soon as she did, Mister died on the table. She had warned him on the way out that nothing had better happen to him, or else. The doctor was so tired and he was completely beside himself at the moment. Aside from Mister being dead, he had to explain that shit to Pearl. He looked around and he half thought about just hauling ass away from the castle grounds right then and there, but then he realized that he just didn't have the strength to run at the moment. So he just sat there and cried an exhausted cry. The doctor sobbed like a little boy and he begged for the queen to come and help him. It didn't take long for her to show up. She
The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky Almost There
Nightfall would be coming soon. It was time for the gathering. Everyone was finishing their evening meal when the horns began to blow from the courtyard of the castle. People were coming out in droves. Della couldn't believe it. She had no idea that there were so many people on the castle grounds. There were even some people who may not have lived there in attendance as well. It reminded Della of some kind of school yard brawl that everyone wanted to witness, just to be a part of the gossip. Her eyes began to sting with tears again. She turned to look at Caine one more time as Josh grabbed him by the sleeve, looked him in the eyes and said, "brother you don't have to do this." Caine told him that he did have to do it, and he asked Josh to remember his promise. Josh hugged him tight. Georgio stepped up next with tears in his eyes and he told him that his men were still there. He told Caine to just say the word. Caine thanked him for everything and he hugge

Della and Queen Rebecca were having wine together privately in the Queen's rooms. Della tried to cheer her sister up, but she wasn't exactly sure yet about why she was so sad at the moment. Della was mid-sentence when a knock came at the door. She stopped what she was saying and got up to answer it. It was Caine, he didn't really say anything as he handed her the note that Cat had left for her, and he walked away. Della looked a little confused as she read the note silently to herself, and then she looked up at her sister with big, sad, knowing eyes. Queen Rebecca couldn't hold it in anymore and her tears started to fall all on their own, as she stared at the floor in silence. Della didn't say a word as she quickly crossed the room and took her sister in her arms. She just held her and rocked her gently as she cried. When she was finished crying, Della wiped her sister's tears away and told her to smile anyways. Even though it hurt to the bone, she still
The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky Confusion
Cat was in a wonderfully happy mood when she entered her and Josh's rooms and found him on the phone talking to someone feverishly. Cat stood quietly in the doorway with a glass of afternoon wine in her hand, and she listened as she tried to figure out just what in the heck the problem was. Josh hung the phone up and he turned to greet her. "Everything okay?" She asked him in a concerned manner. "Not really, I think I'm going to have to go home and deal with some things at the club. It probably wouldn't hurt for you to go look after your record store, too," Josh explained to her cooly. He had been pretending not to notice how close her and Queen Rebecca had been becoming lately, but there was no real way that anyone could be that blind. Their relationship had been cooling off quite a bit because of it. Cat tried to look like it didn't bother her to leave the castle and the queen, but Josh could see right through it. He didn't say much, just that
The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky Don't Do It
Joy had beaten Georgio's men to Uncle Benny's disgusting ass compound by at least fifteen minutes, so by the time that anyone made it there to stop her, she had already hung Uncle Benny from the ceiling by his wrists on a large pair of hooks that she had brought in her bag. She was calmly singing her song and unpacking her torture bag neatly onto a nearby table. The dirty little man was crying and begging for her to stop. Little did he know, that was just making things even worse for him. She heard the helicopter coming in and landing outside. The one that she thought was carrying Georgio's men, but she never waivered. She heard the men rush the house and discover all of the bad guys that she had just swept out, room by room, but she kept right on singing and preparing her tools. She never even missed a beat. She heard the men commenting and remarking on the sheer savageness of what they were seeing. That made her smile. She knew that they would
The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky Joy Goes Home
It had been two weeks since the funeral for Mister, Pearl, and Queen Esmeralda. Caine and the others had stood guard over, and reorganized everything. It had all been running like a well oiled machine, except for the fact that nobody had seen Justin the whole time. It was the common assumption that he had just left after Pearl's death. Caine had people search for him, but there was no trace of him anywhere, so he assumed what everyone else did, and they gave up. Joy had appointed a new head chef under the advisement of Kate and Sadie and everyone just moved on. It had actually been a completely blissful two weeks for everyone, it almost felt like a real vacation. They spent a lot of time together and made a ton of great memories. They ate to much and drank way, way to much, and they became way to comfortable in the castle life, but like all good things...it was about time for it all to come to an end. Joy's father had called her and demanded a me
The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky Saying Goodbye
It had been three days since they had lost Mister and Pearl, and four days since the loss of Queen Esmeralda. The air was thick with sadness as they prepared to say goodbye to them all. The castle and it's grounds were all decorated in black and silver, shrouded in a thick layer of despair, and coated with the bitter sweet feeling of definate change. Kate and Sadie had been appointed head housekeepers but their duties were suspended for a few days, in light of them being directly related to one of the deceased. Della, Cat and Joy tried their best to cover for them, but in the end Kate decided that she wanted her and Sadie to be the one's to coordinate it all because they knew Pearl best and they had been there the longest, so they wanted everything perfect. Everyone was gathered on the gala grounds, dressed in their most dramatic garb. It was a perfectly dreary day for it to. It was grey and overcast, and there was a light sleet hang
The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky Are You Sure
"Missing?!" The queen looked up and asked Caine in confusion, "what do you mean...missing?" She cried in despair. "I mean exactly what I said, my queen," Caine started to explain to her, "Josh and I went out into the hall and they were not laying where you left them, so we started looking for them and trying to follow their trail. We found bloody drag marks along with some huge wolf prints, and we followed them as far as they went," Caine said in a suspicious tone. The queen didn't say anything for a few seconds. She kind of just stared at him blankly. After a moment she finally blinked her eyes and asked him sarcastically, "well where did they end?" Caine got a far away look on his face and then he said, "well that's the strange part. They ended at the edge of the cliff over the ocean side of the mountain. It's almost like they jumped off of the cliff or something." Queen Rebecca sat up straight and her eyes got wide. "There's no way they
The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky You Can't Do This To Me
Mister and Pearl were both so pissed off that it was damn near impossible to hide it. Pearl took a deep breath and she tried to maintain her composure. She thought carefully about her words before she opened her mouth to speak. "My queen," Pearl started to speak, "I have been a loyal and faithful employee of this castle for more than twenty years now. I will admit that I am not always perfect, however, I beg you to understand that everything that I have ever done was with the best interest of Mister and this castle in mind," Pearl said eloquently as she batted her thick eyelashes. Queen Rebecca looked Pearl up and down for a moment thoughtfully and then she turned her attention to Mister. "And you?" She said to him in an authoritative manner. Mister looked as though he was about to actually explode right there on the spot. Queen Rebecca wanted to laugh at him so bad, but she fought the urge, and she swallowed the laughter back. He stood the
The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky After The Storm
Mister and Pearl became panicked when they saw the weather changing like that. They transformed immediately when they stepped out into the raging wind. "It's happening!" Pearl cried out. The two wolves began to howl and wail, which made the other animals in the stables start up too. The wolves paced back and forth, following the force field, looking for a way out. Any way out at all. The two of them became so desperate to escape that they began ramming their bodies against the invisible force field as hard as they could, slamming themselves so hard that they were actually bouncing off of it and landing on their sides a few feet away. They did this over and over again until the wind stopped blowing and the trees had finally come to a rest. Pearl was so broken hearted at the moment, that she didn't even bother to get up the last time she hit the wall. She just laid there and whimpered for a while. Mister crawled over and he laid on top of her, in a
The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky She's Gone Into The Wind
The queen hugged her great grandson while she tried to explain, but he just didn't want to hear it, so he pulled away making her cry even harder. "So you're telling me that now you have to die because I lost the duel?" He asked her in total disbelief and anger. "No, Mister, I'm not exactly going to die, just change forms one last time," she tried to comfort the already crying man, but he could not be comforted. "My spirit will be in the wind, and the snow, and the rain, the sunshine and every single flower you will ever see," the queen told him tenderly as she wiped the tears from his chin with her ancient, snow white hand. Mister and Pearl wailed and howled and begged her to stay, but no matter what, they could not change fate. They asked her what would become of them after she was gone and she told them that was up to Princess Rebecca now. They were even more distraught after they heard that answer. The queen hugged them one last time and told them that she l
