24
I can't believe I'm doing this. I should be supporting my father not this. Three years wasted. I pace around my room. I hope the Soothsayer will complete her mission. Let's hope I can make this right. I hear the door open. I see Maya and the three, along with the prince and her parents.
"I guess I should start with an apology." I say.
I lower my knees. I bow.
"You were only doing it to get your father's love. I can understand that." Maya said.
"We all can." Chimi said.
King Teca approached me.
"I am sorry this happened to you boy." He said pointing at my metal hand.
"Eh. I think I kind of deserved it." I say standing up.
"No one deserves that for showing mercy." Pichu said.
"So, what's the plan?" Zatz asked.
"There's only one way for my father to come down the throne." I say taking my spear.
"Which is?" Rico asked.
"A challenge. I must challenge my father to be the rightful Lord of Gogmen city." I say.
"How risky is that?" Maya said.
"There's a ninety percent chance that he'll kill me, but that's a risk I'm willing to take." I say.
"Wait, what should we do?" Chimi asked.
"Get the prisoners out." Maya said.
"You sure you can do this?" Rico asked me.
"Eh fifty-fifty." I say.
"Those odds are good enough." I say.
