“I don’t understand what you are trying to tell me son. I know who your brother is. I’m his father, of course i would know.” Says King Madonna fixing his cape in the mirror. He had a large smile on his face. Canon, his eldest son, is standing behind him. ” No you Don’t!. Father, haven’t you noticed that ever since Jason had been spending time with our cousin Reditz he has been acting strangely?. You saw what had happened in the throne room!.” He exclaimed. King Madonna’s expression changed. ” We haven’t seen prince Reditz for years. He is not the reason for Jason’s change of behavior. I know what he did….but what do you want me to say about it?. I think that what he did was the act of somebody who will be a powerful ruler someday.” Said King Madonna. Canon put his hands on his head and clinched his hair in frustration. “Father he is a danger to this castle!.” He exclaimed. “No he isn’t!.” Shouted King Madonna in his defense. “He cracked king oldor’s skull without even touching him!, how is that not a danger to us. The only man who could do that in history was the great Ukraisian and he was evil father!.” Yelled Canon with concern. King Madonna was silent. He walked over to the window and looked out at the landscape. “Your brother protected me. He saved me from a suprise attack. I know what i saw and yes i was afraid….He is becoming stronger everyday and i do see a darkness in him. But he is my son, what do you expect me to do?.” King Madonna asks Canon. Canon walked over to the window where his father was. He put his hand onto his left shoulder. “We need to get rid of him.” Canon whispered into his father’s ear. King Madonna pushes Canon away from him. “You’ve gone completely mad!, i can’t believe what i just heard.” King Madonna shouts. He is stunned by what Canon said. “Father you know that it is true!. The sleep walking, the scorcery, the strength, he is far more inteligent than either of us and he is only twelve years old. Imagine the powers that he can posses as a full adult. If you don’t heed my warning it will only lead the choir kingdom into ruins.” Canon warns his father. “Supreme lord Takii said that he will be a powerful God. All of this is just leading up to his destiny. I do not believe that he will hurt us.” Said King Madonna. He still refuses to believe that Jason was a threat to the kingdom or his family. “But did lord Takii ever say what will happen when he gets older. I mean think about it, He will become a powerful God he said, do you really think that if he was so powerful he would not want the throne for himself?. He is a threat to the throne as well.” Canon says. King Madonna realized that lord Takii didn’t mention anything like that. Nevertheless, King Madonna still denied the possibility of Jason being dangerous. “He is my son and i love him, i do not believe that he will be a danger to me or you or anybody else in this family. He will be our protector and will be respectful of your turn to rule over the choir kingdom.” King Madonna says. Canon shakes his head. “Why don’t we go to the oracle so that she can tell us what will happen in the future?.” Asks Canon in one last attept to convince his father to believe him. King Madonna turns to Canon and laughs. “Alright Canon, i will go to the oracle. If it shuts you up that will be wonderful. What do you have against your younger brother huh?. Why are you so eager to remove him from our lives?.” Madonna asks. “I just have a bad feeling about him that’s all.” He replies. They both walk out of King Madonna’s chambers.
The following day, prince Canon, King Madonna and his wife Queen Tara woke up early to travel to the dawnlands to see the Oracle ewissam. The journey was not long. They traveled through portals to get there. On arriving at the house of the oracle, she was already standing on her porch waiting for them. “Welcome your majesties, come on in and make yourselves comfortable.” She says as they climb out of the carriage. They step inside. Her house was filled with statues and curios. She had symbols for ritualistic practices painted on every wall. In the back of the house there was a room with one single table placed on a thick purple rug. A large crystal ball was placed on top of the table as well. There were no chairs and tropical designs were painted on the walls. That is where Ewissam led the royals. They all sat on the floor around the table. Ewissam sat closest to the crystal ball. “My spirits told me that you want to know about your son Prince Jason.” She said gently rubbing the crystal ball. King Madonna spoke up. “Yes, i really would like to know what will happen in the future and what he will become. He did something that i was not prepared to handle and i don’t know what it means.” He said. “Can you tell me what he did your majesty?.” She asked. He proceeds to tell her the story to her. “I had a visitor in my castle just about two days ago. He was in the throne room with a couple of his soldiers and he attempted to throw a spear at me. My twelve year old son Jason was standing right beside my throne where i was sitting. He caught the arrow before it could empale me. He caught it with one hand!. And then he lifted the man off of the ground with some sort of energy force. Black and gold mist hovered around him as he levitated from the ground. Then his skull began to be crushed. It was so terrifying.” King Madonna said. Ewissam nodded her head as if she understood what he felt. “Well, let’s take a look inside of the crystal ball. Shall we?.” Says the oracle. She stroked the crystal with her eyes closed. As she looked into the future the crystal ball suddenly transformed into a grey misty cloud storming with lighting and thunder. A gust of wind blasted from the ball pushing them away from the table with a strong force. The room darkened and the tempreture dropped to a freezing level to were they’re breath was visible. The oracle opened her eyes to reveal the glowing grey pupils that showed. Queen Tara quickly crawled to her husband. She grabbed his arm terrified. The crystal ball spoke through the oracle it said. “Jason will become one of the most powerful Gods in the lands of shay, An indestructable Ruler of the eight kingdoms. He will destroy everything that stands in his way. He will sit on the throne and become unstopable. Be careful of what you do.” Then the crystal ball turned back into it’s normal self. So did the Oracle. She backed away from tje crystal ball in fright. “What i just saw was the most horrific thing i’ve ever seen done to a family.” She says. King Madonna was confused and scared. “What is the eight kingdoms, who are they. What does that mean?.” He asks. “I dont know, but you must be careful of what you do in the future. What you do to your son will determine what your fate will be. He could be your savior aswell as your doom. Be mindful your Majesty, this is not the first time that this has occured. This has happened to many other kings in the past.” Ewissam warns him. King Madonna is now terrified. He did not listen to the Oracle. What he only heard was that Jason was infact a danger to his kingdom. “You see father, i knew it from the moment that he was born!, he is a curse!.” Shouted Canon.
After leaving tha Oracles home and returning back to the castle, King Madonna and Queen Tara decided to have a talk about their son. “I cannot believe a word that she says. I refuse to. Jason shows us nothing but love. He is such a good boy, i don’t care how he killed king oldor….he was protecting you wasn’t he?. That says enough about who he is.” Shout the Queen. Madonna pases back and forth with his hand on his hips. “She said that he will become powerful, so powerful that he will become one of the strongest Rulers of the lands of shay.” Madonna repeated what the Oracle said. He felt uneasy. Knowing that his son could in fact be a danger to his castel like Canon had warned him, gave him discomfort. “She said that he will destroy anything that stands in his way!, what if i was in his way, would he kill me?.” King Madonna asked. “No!, of course not. He loves you. He would never do that to his own father, you know that he loves you.” Queen Tara says to him. “The Great Ukrasian had killed his own father.” King Madonna said. “Jason is not like his great grandfather. He will never hurt you. Get that nonsense out of your head.” She says. King Madonna walked out of the room and leaned on the wall by the door. He thought of everything that the oracle said and decided to go and see his son. Jason was on the Balcony with his friend Ioza. the both of them are to be betrothed in the future. King Madonna walked onto the balcony. “Will you please leave us my dear?.” King Madonna asked Ioza. She bowed to him and left the room. Jason gave his father the most jenuine smile that a son could give. King Madonna sat right beside him. “How are you son?.” Asked King Madonna. “Im fine father. Im very excited about my thirteenth birthday. I know that you have something wonderful planned for me, i can feel it. I just want you to know that i appreciate what you and mother do for me.” Says Jason putting his arm around his father. King Madonna couldn’t hide his terror. The expression on his face. “what is the matter?.” Jason asks concerned. “You wouldn’t hurt your family, would you Jason?.” Asked King Madonna. “No!, of course not. Why would you ask me that. Do you think that i’m capable of something like that?.” Asks Jason. King Madonna laughed. “No, no it was just a question. I just feel….i don’t know if…….If you bacame very powerful once you got older. Would you try to steal my throne away from me?.” King Madonna says. Jason laughs too. He was humored by the question that his father just asked. “No, where is all of this comimg from?.”Jason said with a straight face. “Well i guess that i had what happened in the throne room on my mind and i just feel that what you did was a bit evil.” Said King Madonna. “Are you saying that you didn’t want me to punish him for trying to kill you?.” Asked Jason. “No it’s not that, but i do think that you could have done it a different way.” He said. Jason became angry. “Are you really sitting here and telling me that you didn’t like the way that i killed a man, when i could’ve just let the spear stab through you?. I did what i needed to do and now that i think about it, i should have done far worse than crush his skull.” He said. His eyes flashed grey for just a second but King Madonna saw it. He backed away from his son in terror. “What did you say?.” Asked King Madonna. Jason rolled his eyes. “I have know idea why you are treating me this way. If any other of my brothers did it, you would probably congradulate them. Why am i so different?.” Asked Jason as he crosses his arms. King Madonna stuterred as he spoke. “Well i-i just don’t think that a boy of your age should have those kinds of thoughts in his head.” He said. “You know father i think that you are growing soft. That you can’t handle the sight of blood anymore…wait….you never could, now that i think about it. How do you expect to keep this kingdom afloat if you can’t even handle a crushed skull?.” Jason asks. This upset King Madonna. “It is not the blood that bothers me. I feel that you are sick son. A young boy like you, should not be that violent. And you think that a boy like you could be a better ruler than I?. Would you push me, your father, off of my throne?.” King Madonna says to provoke Jason. “Not if you give me a reason to.” Jason said angrily. He gives a soft chuckle and turns to look at the stary sky. King Madonna was speachless. The way that Jason said that was so serious and eerie. He sent chills up his fathers spine. As King Madonna stares at Jasons back he noticed a sudden change in his appearence. He suddenly became taller and his breath was visible when he exhaled even though it was a warm summer night. Two voices spoke at the same time. “It would be nice to have a castle of my own.” They said. An unfamiliar hand sat on Jasons shoulder. It was grey and wet. Like a demon. Horrified King Madonna ran off of the balcony. He ran to Canon’s room and told him that he was right about everything that he had suspected. “How do we rid ourselves of him?.” He asked his son. Canon Grabbed a knife from the drawer by his bed and said. “I think i have an idea.”
