Pt 2: shelly __________________________________________ Shelly impatiently waited for Connie to return. She already knew from Vee's look that Connie had forgotten to begin with, but she felt it would be nicer to keep quiet and have faith in Connie. ... Shelly was very concered about her choice of second in command. Vee was alert, and noted Shelly when something was wrong...but she could never see Vee as a queen. 'What if she changes the rules-for something bad-?!-or worse!?' shelly began to regret this stuff. she thought being queen would be fun, instead its just sitting forever and requesting things you don't even like. back when she was a loner it was sad, but easy. she provided for herself and herself /only/. she almost felt guilty with no job now she can still vividly remember the day she became second in postion ... Shelly's muscles relaxed and she flopped down in a patch of light pink flowers, the mist surrounding her bring a sense of comfort. her raggedy overalls didn't itch for once, and after a year, she finally smiled ...for just a second the sound of heavy footsteps startled Shelly and her head shot up. two guards were there. one was mumbling and one was...giggling? that wasn't very regal. the giggling guard noticed Shelly and alerted the other guard "there she is!" both the guards walked towards Shelly. After her vision adjusted she could tell One of the guards was dyle, and the other was goob. 'goob is a guard? that's odd' she shook the thought out of her head as the two came closer. "Miss fossilian you are to follow us and will be forced if you do not comply." Dyle stated firmly. "please just follow!" goob shouted "my hands are tired..". Dyle gave Goob a look of disgust, as if his lack of seriousness offended him. Shelly stumbled back "w-w-why d-do you ne-eed m-me?" she stuttered out. Goob attempted to approach Shelly, but she stepped further away from him and he eventually stopped trying.Dyle took a second to examine the concern on Shelly's face "The king has chosen you as his second in command." Shelly was puzzled now '/king?/ but last time I checked ginger was queen! guess someone took that place'." Uhm- who i-is the current k-king?" Shelly was still nervous but she calmed down a little. goob jumped "its Boxten right now!" he exclaimed excitedly. Dyle rolled his eyes. Shelly sat there hesitated, then walked in between the two as they leaded her to the palace. Shelly had seen a glimpse of the palace once, but shes never been inside of it! two guards waited outside; astro and soulvester. Shelly eyed astro's solemn face as she entered the palace. He didn't give her a glance. as if the giant misty field was the most entertaining thing in the world. When they got inside a flash of light beamed in shelly's eyes, but after her eyes adjusted she was met with the beauty of the inner palace. hints of orange, red and yellow bedazzled everywhere. "sprout will lead you to your room" dyle said. Shelly jumped 'sprout was behind me the whole time-?' sprout walked from his position, remaining silent and dyle switched places with him while goob wandered off. sprout gave Shelly a half smile and a waving motion for her to follow. they walked down the ruby embedded halls until they arrived at a large entry with a golden door frame that ended the hall. above it was a title that said "king" in fancy handwriting. next to it a entry with a silver door frame it read 'second in command' in neat handwriting but not as fancy as the king one. sprout pointed to the silver door frame. "uhm...thanks!" Shelly said awkwardly. she strode in the room. 'its /amazing/ in here!' she noticed some neatly folded clothes nearby with a note on top that read "Shelly! I thought this would be pefect for you!" she didn't know who wrote the note but put on the clothes anyways. she walked towards the throne room in her new dress. it was a red top with a puffy yellow dress under it and she had very dark red boots that could easily be mistaken as black. there sat Boxten twiddling his fingers. His face was drenched in sweat, as if this was the biggest moment of his life and he was about to fumble it all up. "heya! second in command reporting for duty-!" Shelly let out a forced laugh. boxten let out a slight chuckle and invited her to sit down. toodles was nearby stroking pebble as if he was Somekind of cat. Shelly just chose to ignore it...why would it have mattered? She glanced at a second entryway to the throne room. "What's that for?" She intended on being polite, but it sounded almost like a demand. "Eer- it's f-for the" "..peasants..." boxten said the word as if it was the most disgusting thing that came out of his mouth. "Oh- alright!". For the next hour the both sat awkwardly. Suddenly peasant squirm wandered by. He looked sneaky. Dashing around until a corner he could hide in the shadows. Shelly barely spotted him from outside the throne room. "Excuse me!" She shouted.
