My Angel system

Lots of noise was being generated as everyone in Asaka had appeared before the king's castle, there were murmurs and whispers as everyone tried to guess or give their opinion on what a call like this might be all about.

Jude had arrived on his horse carrying Tauriel and Tuchel at the back of the horse, it was going to be a tedious task to try and go through the crowd just to get to the front so Jude decided to stay at the back where there was a little bit of free space.

"Make sure that thing does get pulled off by anyone," Jude said, pulling Tauriel's beanie down to make sure it was perfectly lapped on her head.

"Aren't you going to adjust mine?" Tuchel asked with his hands folded.

"No, you can do that yourself," Jude said as he relaxed his back on his horse.

"Yeah, right," Tuchel said as he adjusted his beanie to make sure his ear wouldn't slip through by any chance.

"So why did everyone get summoned here?" Tauriel asked looking up to the platform attached to the castle which was the place where the king addressed the people from.

"To be honest the last time we were summoned like this, I was still a child then."

"Like how old?" Tauriel asked.

"Six years old."

"Do you remember the reason for the call?" Tauriel asked.

"I didn't understand a thing the king said but later after we had returned to our home my parents explained everything to me."

"And what was that?"

"The kingdom of Unelo had declared war against us and we were told to get ready for what was about to come," Jude said.

"I'm guessing the war never happened," Tuchel said, looking around the area.

"Yeah, everything was resolved by the king and up till today our kingdom is on good terms with Unelo."

"I wonder what news he has for you guys now," Tuchel said as he looked up at the platform.

Jude and Tauriel followed his gaze to see that the king had arrived and was now talking to his guard which was on the platform.

"I hope he's aware that no one will hear him from up there," Tuchel said.

"Don't worry that's not a problem," Jude said.

The guard left to return a few minutes later with a white stone in his hands.

"You have amplifying stones?" Tauriel said.

"Yes, how do you think situations like this are handled by the king?" Jude said.

"Greetings my dear people." The king's resounded all over the place.

"Greetings your majesty." The people chorused.

"As you all know, I've always tried my best to make sure that you all live happy lives, and one of the ways through which I do that is maintaining good relationships with other kingdoms and avoiding going into wars with them.

"Since my ascension to the throne, this kingdom has never gotten involved in any type of war with any other kingdom, let alone elves or goblins.

"Do you people not enjoy a life free from war?"

"We do?" The people chorused.

"But there's someone, someone among you who is trying to take it away from you, someone who is trying to bring war upon us.

"I got a message this morning, this message wasn't from any of the three kingdoms, it was from the elf king and it wasn't a friendly message.

"He stated in the message that there were two elves who had escaped into our kingdom from his Kingdom."

"Elves."

There were gasps and murmurs as the people began to look around to see if they could spot the supposed elves.

"He gave me seven days to find and send the elves back to him or else he was going to come himself and that meant that we should get ready for war.

"If you are the one harboring these elves, I would advise you to bring them in for the sake of our kingdom and the people in it."

Felix and Maya Blackstone had seen Jude arrive at the area with his horse but just as they turned again to check his reaction he was no longer there.

"Where did he go?" Felix said as he rushed out at the spot.

Jude had immediately left with Tauriel and Tuchel and was currently on his horse, riding as fast as he could to get to their home.

It didn't even take him long to get home as he dropped the elf twins in front of the house and then rode into the stable as they quickly entered the house.

"I knew he would do something like this but it took him long enough," Tauriel said as she slammed the door shut.

"You guys have to calm down so that we can think of a way around this," Jude said after entering from the back door.

"He's actually coming here," Tuchel said as he slowly sat down on the seat in the sitting room.

"We will find a way to prevent that," Jude said.

"You don't understand, if Ashburn comes here with his elf army, he's going to wreck this place, he's going to kill everyone he sees until he gets what he wants," Tuchel said.

"No Tuchel, you're wrong," Tauriel said. "Did you ever listen to the stories our parents told us? Ashburn has always been looking for a way to start a war with the humans and he just found one, I doubt he's going to stop his plans even after they bring us to him."

"If what you're saying is true, then how do we stop him?" Jude asked.

Tauriel let out a deep sigh as she dropped to the seat.

"That I do not have an answer to, he's already gotten what he wanted and I don't think there's a way this kingdom can beat them with their level of military."

"We have good soldiers in the military," Jude said.

"Yeah but Ashburn has the power to make them all vanish in the twinkle of an eye and the only thing that can resist his magic is the stone of Avalon."

"And you have the last one on your neck there," Tuchel said pointing at the necklace on Jude's neck.

"That's not the last one." Tauriel said, "There is a whole statue made of stones of Avalon but no one knows where it is up until today."

Jude was fascinated by how much Tauriel knew compared to her brother, she was like the twin who studied things and made sure she didn't miss any details while Tuchel was the twin that took only the information he found important leaving out every other detail.

There was a short period of silence between the three before the back door was suddenly pushed open, they were all startled until they saw that the two who had entered were the owners of the house.

"Jude we need to talk now," Felix said.

Jude looked at the twins before following his parents who had walked into the dining room.

"Jude you heard what the king said, you have to bring them in," Maya said.

"I can't believe you're the one saying this mother," Jude said. "That elf risked her life and her freedom to save me and now you just want me to turn her and her brother in to get killed."

"But Jude keeping them here means putting the whole kingdom in danger," Felix said.

"No, they are not the ones putting the kingdom in danger, the elf king will still attack us even if we turn them in."

"What are you saying?" Felix asked.

"The elf king has been looking for a reason to attack humans and now that he's found one, there's no stopping him," Jude said. "If I were the king, I would be looking for a way to defend the kingdom and fight back instead of looking for two innocent elves."

Jude was about to walk out on his parents when his father said something.

"You can't keep them here forever, investigations are starting tomorrow and they are not leaving any house untouched; nobody is allowed to leave the kingdom either."

"Tomorrow you say, well that gives us enough time to come up with something," Jude said as he walked out of the room.
