Chapter 12
Say Hello

Destiny's POV

Destiny. Destiny wake up. I hear a voice inside my dream. And then I wake up screaming seeing that Slate is in my room, sitting on the bed. I scooted back against the edge of bed and fell off. " ooof!" "Be careful! Your still not fully healed yet!" I hear him saying.

"What the hell are you doing in here?!" I practically yelled. "I came to tell you that breakfast is ready." He said. "Umm... Ok... I guess I'll come to breakfast... Just let me get dressed first..." I said unsure.

"But you already are!" I heared him chuckle a little. I looked down and saw I was in a pretty summer dress with flowers on it. "Why you little! What the heck you pervert!" I screamed in his face. he smiled and told me to be down in the kitchen in 5 minutes.

He then left the room and I got up off the bed. I walked up to the mirror. I looked at my reflection and realized what had cut open my arm the other night. It was a sword sticking out of the drawer below the mirror.

I took it out and felt it along side the flat edge. It had something written on it but I couldn't make it out very well. " G...Gray...Grayson.... Grayson Steel! I wonder who that is?" I turned it over and saw a note stuck on it with a couple of blood spots from my last encounter with it.

My dearest brother, I have seen what your plans are, So I will give you our fathers sword. But Airon, I will warn you, the element princess is powerful. Even more powerful than you. So if you are gonna go through with this. Then you must be smart about it.
-Slate Steel

Slate Steel? Grayson Steel? Airon Steel? I'm guessing they are all in the same family. But how did this sword get here? Did he leave it here? I need to find out more about Slate and his family. I will try to find a library after breakfast... Speaking of... I'M LATE!

"Princess? Are you still up there?" As if right on cue, I hear Slate call up the stairs looking for me. "Coming!" I yelled back down to him. I slid the sword underneath the bed and ran off downstairs to the kitchen.

In the kitchen

I sat down and put my napkin over my lap (at least I had my etiquette). "Look who finally showed up!" I hear Slate say happily. I stared at him until he realized that he was being ridiculously inappropriate. He looked away and waited for the next conversation.

"Sooo.. What's for breakfast?" I said curiously. "Whatever you would like" he said back "really? That's very kind of you but I have to disagree, whatever you make I will eat." I had just realized what I had said and frowned, luckily he didn't see me.

"Anything?" he asked slyly."shut up." I replied. "So... Is there a reason for your sudden kindness?" I said. "Maybe... Maybe not..." He said as he smirked at his remark. "I'll be right back, I just have to talk to someone..."

"Ok till then." I said. I wonder why he is being so nice. He has changed since the first time I met him, evil and heartless to kind and generous, but anyways, I know he still has some evil in him.

A couple minutes later he came in and looked at me. "Umm, Destiny?" He said. I looked up at him and said, "yes?" "I would like you to meet someone, this is Airon Steel..."

WHAT!??!

I looked up at both of them wide eyed.
"..." "Are you alright?" He said "just fine, perfectly fine."
