Angelica,
The next afternoon Luna and the twins spent on horses to the castle. Luna had her own horse while the twins shared one, swapping who controlled the horse more than once without stopping, and giving Luna a fright. When they had made it to the castle, 4 people were outside the back entrance. Luna recognized one as Annie, expect her ebony hair in a braid and she wasn't wearing amour. There was one rather young looking girl, with golden eyes and caramel skin was beside one of the other two knights. Annie turned to look at the three, and smiled.
"Hello, I'm Lillan," the new girl spoke extending her hand for a handshake. Both the twins high fived the hand, leaving a confused Lillain, 3 snickering knights and Luna rolling her eyes.
"Hello, I'm Luna. This ones Thomas, he's the oldest and this one," she moved her hand to smack the boy over the head, "Is James."
"Ow, Lu-Lu that hurt." The boys said in sync.
"Good you nasty rats."
"Uh, how do you tell them apart?" Lillain asked.
"Uh, well, it's easy. Thomas fidgets, James doesn't. Plus, their jaws aren't the same." Luna pointed out a few, like Thomas having slightly tannish yellow skin and how his jaw was more square. Plus, they had different hair. James had neat black hair while Thomas had messy black hair.
Just then, two more horses pulled up, a young man helped a young woman off, asking if she was okay.
After the woman waddled over with her husband cooing after her, she introduced them.
"Hi, my names Elizabeth, this is Willaim. My husband." They were sickly lovely to each other. Elizabeth continued on with one final introduction:
"And we don't have a name for this one, yet." She held her stomach, looking down at it.
After all the final introductions were made the nine and a half of them walked into the castle at last.
"Now, we leave at dawn tomorrow. But today we're going to let you lot met the queen." Annie stated, besides Luna. The twins were walking a little ahead with Lillan, who was 11, also admiring everything.
"Didn't Queen Ellenor have a daughter?" Elizabeth asked the knights.
"Yes, but she was kidnapped by bandits. She still sends knights out, but not as often. She had a son two years ago."
Luna had a brother? A twenty year gap, with a half brother?
Once they met the big doors to a study, Luna started worrying she would be caught. I mean, she told them the wrong age and her mother only knew the twins mother was due around that time.
They pulled open the door and the queen looked up, from whatever book she was reading and smiled. She greeted each and every person, starting with Lillain and then Elizabeth and her husband. Finally landing on Luna she stopped.
"You look a lot like my daughter, what's your name? And how old are you?"
The queen didn't take her eyes off her, but Luna wouldn't look up.
"Luna, your highness, 24." The queen sighed, sounding sad.
"Well then, you're a bit older than my Luna would be. You look so much alike. Hello, I'm Queen Ellenor." She spotted the twins, "And who are these little buggers?"
"This ones Thomas and this ones James."
"Ah."
Luna hadn't looked Queen Ellenor in the eye at all, her mother would surly know who she was if she did, Luna's father had blue almost white eyes like Luna. Her mother had amber eyes that looked like fire.
"Well! Everyone go get some food and get to bed! We leave at dawn." She spun around and walked back to her seat.
Howdy guys!! Elizabeth and William's Kiddo needs a name so if you have any comment if you want! Eat your school, sleep drugs and burn veggies! Love you all thanks!!
