=== Coronation Day =========================== Finally the day had arrived, the day of lightning's Crowning. The Castle was as busy as ever, there were beautiful decorations covering the castle, and all of downtown Riverian, blue and gold banners and ribbons, flags that waved through the air with the Royal crest imprinted upon them, the tall street lamps had blue and yellow roses with a white vine like flower hanging from the basted all the flowers lies in, hung from all the lamps. Meanwhile, in the castle, the entire group was being fitted with new attire. Sonic Shadow, Silver, and Ace where all in another room, getting their armor fitted, cleaned and fixed to the Riverian royal attire, a flag with the royal Crest was added to each of their waistbands, some of the palace maids helping them in a separate room. Ace was putting on his boots after he got his flag. " ....i Hate this..." He huffed. Silver was clipping his new Riverian Flag onto his armor and looked up at his brother. "Hate what..? the fact that we're here..? i personally appreciate the hard work the Staff are putting in to give us clean and fixed up armor.. " the young hedgehog smiled a bit. " No...its not that..... " Ace huffed again, putting his second boot on with flat ears. "Hes upset because LiGhTnInG has to be in another room and we cant see her until the ceremony- " Sonic snorted, fixing the collar of his breastplate. Ace rolled his eyes. "nO........... i just....dont like the fact that shes with random people...... Infinite, Infinity- and who else knows what else is out there trying to get her...they are alL still out there.... and no one is protecting her-" Shadow sighed and stood back up after fixing the rest of his armor. "Shes with Coran and more of the Castle staff......Coran isnt a stranger....its fine.......i might not like it either........ but what can we do.... " Ace Stood up as well and crossed his arms* "Demand to see her for her protection...... " "Dude....it doesnt work like that..." The Blue Hedgehog snorted again. Silver sighed and walked over to his brother. "I know you're just worried about her..... but..... try and relax.....its just gonna keep you all anxious all day... try and go find Spade or something....? i dunno....distract yourself... im gonna find Blaze.... see what shes up too- i heard shes getting a new outfit fitted as well- but if we're done- she might be done as well- " "True- "Sonic shrugged. "You should go find your best friend- " Ace Sighed in discomfort. "Fine.....ill cya guys later...... " The Silver heagehog's ears dropped as he walked out of the room, looking around. " He was talking about being hungry before i had to go...maybe hes in the kitchen.... " After a few minutes, Ace walked into the kitchen and noticed Spade sitting with Leon on the counter. "Hm..? Hey Ace! you're Done...heh....dannnggg- the new stuff looks nice...." Spade smiled at him. "Id have to agree- it looks much more Professional... " Leon snorted. "And cleaner than the last one- " Ace rolled his eyes. "VeRy FunNy....." He sighed and walked over to them. " Yeah...i....guess its nice.... " Spade;s ear cocked to the side. "Whats wrong buddy..? you were more excited before...why so glum now..? " "Just...impatient......." He groaned. " Wanna go Check on Lightning and see if shes done or not..? i just want this coronation thing to be over..." "AhHH- thats why- he want little miss Lightning and doenst know what to do with himself without her- " Leon Snorted and fluttered onto Ace's head" "nO- iM nOt" Spade snickered and jumped on his shoulder. " SurE...tell yourself that......anyways...lets goooo...im boreeddddddd- " Ace sighed, " JEEz OkAy.." after a few moments he walked over to to Lightning's room, gently Knocking on the door. "...Lightning..? Are you done...?" Coran Answered from beyond the door. "SheS nOt DonE yEt...... " Lightning grabbed Coran's Ear and yanked him back while staying in one place while the maid in the room places the shoulder plates on her dress. "DoNt bE RuDe tO HiM! ....Let him in Coran.... " The Coyote huffed a bit. "Ehh...sorry your highness- ...eh..yOu MaY EnTeR..... " Spade snored on Ace's shoulder as the hedgehog walked into the room. Lightning smiles a bit at him in her new beautiful royal gown, it was a sapphire blue with teal hues and lots of gold and white details . "Eh heh...sorry about that Ace..... im almost done....she just has to put on the shoulder plates... " Ace blinked a bit then shook his head. "u-uh.....yeah....cool...........the uh.....knights are done.........u-uh.....and S-Silver said ...Blaze should be....too........." "oh wonderful.....then we should be able to start the ceremony once Lightning is Done... " Coran said before grabbing a note pad. "Now....i need to attend to other things...... make sure everything is ready- the crown is polished- decor is ready- and the cloaks for the appointed knight and captain of the royal guard are all ready...-
- Ill be seeing you- " Coran smiled then walked out of the room. A few moments later the maid finished up with lightning and stepped away. Lightning Smiled at her. "eh heh...thank you... " "Of course your highness... " she smiled and walked out of the room. Lightning sighed and looked back at Ace. "this ...seemed like a bit much....but i thought it was gonna be worse....i can actually move very well in this.... and its really comfortable... " "thats...good...... " Ace replied looking at her dress. "i agree though...i thought you would be in some ball dress thats impossible to work in...eh heh.. " " it looks nice though! " Spade smiled at Lightning. "Thanks Spade....." Lightning Smiled. " I agree...you like like a pretty little princess- but also a princess who's ready to annihilate someone-" Leon Snickered. Ace huffed and shooed him off his head. "Don't call her a pretty princess..." Leon Snickered and jumped onto lightning's shoulders. "Finnneeeee.." Lightning Giggled a bit and walked over to her desk that had all sorts of jewelry on it, sat down in the chair and started putting the earring in. "but i mean........eh........im still.......super nervous........ why me ya know.........? i dont....get it............. i dont.......wanna be Queen.......... " she shivered at the thought. " What if i mess up, Ace?? what if....im the reason this place goes into ruin or something?! " "woah woah woah.....calm down........that wont happen........ " "How do you know?? " she breath heavily slightly from how stressed she was becoming, her fur on her shoulders standing up a bit. Ace looked at her sadly and walked over to her, placing both his hands on her shoulders from behind. "...Listen......i might not....give the best advice.....but...i can voice my opinion......You..are a great person, Light....a great friend....and.... a great leader........you take on the stress of battle really well..... and 90% of other stresses too........ you're just scared right now.....but i dont think you need to be.......you...i think you'll be a great Queen.....and a great leader........ the best Queen this place has ever seen......... you're the most kindhearted and caring person that i know..... it might take some time to get used to it........ but i know you will..........and i ........me.....and...all of your friends will be there with you the whole way.......okay..? so....get out there.....and you take whats yours........okay...? " Lightning seemed to calm down and she looked up at him, getting up out of her seat to give the hedgehog a tight hug. " Thank you..so much Ace.. What did i do to deserve you here..? " Ace smiled sheepishly. "eh heh...... all you had to do was be yourself.... " Leon smiled a bit then sat up. "OkAy...enough with all the cheesyness.....as aDoRabLE as it is.... we have a coronation to get you...." Lightning Sighed. "eh heh....you're right.....im ready......lets go get that crown...." =========================================== OmG oKaY- i wanted to fit the whole corporation in this one chapter eh heh- bUt i CoUlDnT- sooooo uh- lightning's Crowning will be in Chapter 31- eh heh- BuT- i hope you guys enjoyed this chapter :D was i supposed to upload this on the 3rd Anniversary..? yes did i forget? yes am i sorry??? yEs ;w;" i forgot hhhh im sorry- TwT" but its here now ":D and i hope ya'll like it bjfkelsbgjfk;da Ace and Spade belong to Coding Queen Lightning, Coran and Leon belong to me Silver, Blaze, Sonic and Shadow belong to SEGA Story is copywrite ©Moonwhisper06
