“Cyrus, you have grown up so much.”

  Huggiight, I say, “Sister, sister, sister.”

  “Cyrus,” says bae.

  “I missed you so, so much.”

  “Cyrus.”

  “I wao always see you; I was so scared by myself.”

  “I need you to listen to me.”

  “I am so happy you’re ok.”

  Suddenly feeling a thud on my back, I pull bad turn my head to see Atanta, “Cyrus you're choking her!”

  Looking at my sister, I see she has almost been crushed to death, with her face looking blue. Shaking her I say, “Sister, sister.”

  Using her bow, Atanta whacks me across the head and says, “Calm yourself you idiot, do you really think yoing to get anywhere being all ruff like that.”

  “S-S-S-Sorry!”

  With her face returning to normal, my sister says, “You really have gotten strong.”

  Hearing this I proceed to hug her again. “I ’t breathe.”

  From behind us, I hear, “Let go of Lady Pari right now.”

  Turning around, I see the funny man has caught up to us.

  Standing up my sister says, “Easifatan this is my brother Cyrus.” Then she reveals my tail.

  Suddenly his face lights up as he says, “Of course, he was, because there is no way I would lose to a normal human man.”

  Snickering, Atanta says, “Is that the way you have chosen to preserve your fragile ego, how small of you.”

  “Stop talking about my height you pest.” Enraged he says, “Sorry Pari, but I still o arrest these two they are intruders.”

  “I guarahey are here for no bad reasons.”

  “This isn’t about the w anymore this is about my pride. I ’T STOP UNTIL THESE TWO ARE FIFTY FEET UNDER!”

  As he finishes screaming my sister gives him a chop on the back of the head sending him right into the ground. “Bad boy. Sorry about that you two, he get a bit carried away with his power, so before that happens agai’s go inform the king of your presence.”

  As my sister starts to walk away, she turns around and runs up to me, “Sorry Cyrus, I fot you o hold my hand to walk.”

  “I d-d-don’t o.”

  Grabbing my hand my sister says, “Ehhhhh! But you used to have a panic attack every time I fot. Then I had to say I love you Cyreepoo three times until you fave me.”

  Holding her hands over her mouth, Atanta tries to hide her ughter as she says, “Aww, how adorable Cyreepoo.”

  Embarrassed my face turns bright red. Seeing this my sister says, “Cyreepoo what’s wrong?”

  Orb save me!

  -Break-

  Φ “And thus Alibaba married his son tiana as a way to thank her for saving his life. The end.”

  As the woman finishes reting the story the sand people who finished ag it out, colpse bato lumps of sand.

  The moment this happens people start to fill the area with appuse which I ’t help but to join in on. “That was amazing, wasn’t it brother.”

  Looking over at my brother, I see he is lumped over beside Anto pletely asleep. Seeing this I poke at his fad say, “Wake up.”

  Jumping up out ht, he says, “AHH! Is it over?”

  “How did you even mao sleep through the story.”

  “Her voice is so soothing that I tend to fall asleep whenever I hear it. But Orb how did you enjoy it?”

  “It was amazing, I never experienced anything like that before it was like I was living the story.”

  “Well, that’s good to hear. I am happy that an intruder like you was able to enjoy Jedidiah so much.”

  “This pce is amazing, how could I not.” Stopping for a moment I say, “What did you just call me?”

  “What you didn’t like being called an intruder, you intruder.”

  Realizing his words, I try to take a step bad prepare to activate my legacy, but before I do that my arm is grabbed and pulled close to him as he stands up.

  Trying to break free I realize how strong his grip is. This strength is tur, “You’re using spirit arts.”

  “Correct Orb, but just like everything else you realized too te. I happen to know the faces of every citizen of Jedidiah, and from the moment I saw you I knew you were an intruder. Earlier when you saw me talking to the guard, I was telling him that he should go and check the ers of the city for Yamal while I deal with you.”

  This is really bad, I o break free and leave, but he has Antht behind him, and if I was to try and create any ice I would ihe crowd leaving. “You set me up by bringing me here.”

  Freeing my hand, he whacks me on the head and says, “I didn’t do anything of the short.”

  As I hold my head, he says, “The reason I brought you here is simple, I wanted you to get a true feel of this try I love so much, That's about it. So, I hope if you uand the greatness of this nd, you won’t do anything bad here.”

  Looking at him with a dumbfounded face, I say, “That’s incredibly irresponsible, your first response should have been to report me to the guard, you don’t know how dangerous I could be.”

  Laughing a little, he says, “You are really berating me over not harming you, you must have a few screws loose. But heless, I don’t have to worry about such things.”

  “Why is that?”

  Standing up, my brother says, “Because I am the king, Ahmed Abrahams.”

  Hearing this I stare at him in shock. “I know, I am pretty amazing right Orb.”

  With a face full of pity, I say, “How me!”

  “What do you mean me, my reveal was awesome!”

  “Not that, the fact that you were plimenting yourself while we were hanging out. Like you really talked the king up but knowing the fact that you were just btantly plimenting yourself sort of just makes you e off as me.

  You were really just putting yourself up on a pedestal right with a giant smile on your face, my god have some shame.”

  Looking at Ahmed, I see he is fuming with anger but then he calms down and says, “Well what about you, the eime we were together I was treating you like a fner, I was introdug you to things you should already know as a citizen of Jedidiah, even with all those hints I threw you, you still didn’t cat. If I am me, you’re an idiot!”

  As his words dawn on me, I start to feel extremely embarrassed but to ter this I say, “I was so drawn in by the sights of Jedidiah that I lost myself, but what about you? You were just btantly stroking yo.”

  “Looks like I wasted my time, you pose absolutely no threat to my try sidering how stupid you are.”

  “I break this try down if I wao!”

  In a dismissive tone, he says, “Whatever you say Orb.”

  “Don’t test me.”

  ing his ears, he says, “Try it if you .”

  “Well, you just watch I am going to freeze this whole try!”

  “TRY IT, IDIOT!”

  As a fist hits Ahmed on the back of the head, I hear someone say, “STOP INVITING PROBLEMS!”

  Looking at who hit him, I see the woman who was reading the story to us.

  “First you disappear for aire day then when I find you, you’re pig a fight with someone, I swear does your idiot brain even work!”

  “Scheherazade, he started it.”

  Shoving an apple in his mouth, Scheherazade says, “I don’t want to hear it.” Looking at me she says, “Who is this?”

  “Oh, he is an intruder I befriended.”

  Giving him a death stare, she says, “So you’re telling me, you have just been walking around with a dangerous stranger who you know nothing about, instead of doing any of your actual duties!”

  Seeing Ahmed sweating profusely he says, “Isn’t it my job as king to keep track of potentially dangerous things towards my citizens.”

  “Oh yeah, so please tell me how you kept track of him today.”

  Raising my hand, I say, “We goofed off and had fun throughout the whole day.”

  As the murderous aura around Scheherazade increases Ahemed turns his head to me and says, “Orb this isn’t a game, I could die!”

  Hearing his pleas, I start to ugh a little.

  With a smile, she says, “So you were off pying today!”

  “I might have had a little fun, but I swear to you that wasn’t the point of what I was doing, please five me!”

  “Of course, I will.”

  “Really?”

  “Yes! Now go to sleep.” She says crushing his head into the ground.

  Seeing this I ask, “Is he ok?”

  “He will be fine, despite how he looks he is very durable.”

  “But isn’t he your king, should you really be treating him like a piece of cloth.”

  “I happen to be the caretaker of this idiot, so it is my job to make sure he takes care of himself, but as you have seen he is always running himself ragged and the only way to get him to rest is through excessive force.”

  Pig him up she looks at me and says, “Well let’s go, I believe there are other intruders here, we should reunite you with them.”

  “Wait, are you sure you should be trusting us?”

  “If you were a threat to Jedidiah Ahmed would have killed you on the spot, but since he didn’t, I have decided to trust you. So, let’s go!”

  Pig up Anto I begin to follow her as she moves.

  Φ Draggihrough the streets my sister says, “You really grew up to be handsome Cyrus.”

  “T-T-Thank you.”

  “Oh, I see you still stutter.”

  “S-S-S-Sorry!”

  “Don’t apologize, I was pletely expeg you to be like this, in fact, I am pletely amazed you talked properly even a little. I thought that was above your pacity as a creature!"

  Walking up beside my sister, Atanta says, “Are all dragons this naturally beautiful?”

  “You humans sure are strange, me and Cyrus would be sidered hideous by dragon standards.”

  “If that’s true I think a beautiful dragon would probably scorch my eyes. But fetting that, do you have any fun stories about Cyrus!”

  Quietly I say, “P-P-P-Please don’t.”

  Being cut off, my sister says “Well where should I start? Oh, I have a rather funny one, for about the first seven years of Cyrus’s life he taught I was his mom instead of his sister, so he called me mommy every day.”

  “Oh, how adorable.”

  Hearing this my face turns bright red. “When he found out I wasn’t he cried for five days straight.”

  As Atanta ughs a little, my sister says, “And whenever he did anything, I had to stantly stand right beside him and tell him what to do step by step.”

  Turning her head, my sister says, “Don’t worry Cyrus all of that stuff betweeh of us is in the past, you look like you take care of yourself now, or at least I hope you .”

  “I will t-t-t-try my best!”.

  “That’s good to hear. But Cyrus,” Pulling me close to her my sister says, “So whose is this woman with you, is she your wife do I have nieces and nephews!”

  “N-N-N-NO!”

  “Ahat a shame. If you need some help sedug her, you t on your sister.” Turning her head, she says, “Atanta, want to bee a Damavand!”

  Freaking out, I say, “SISTER!” But I notice Atanta isn’t where she previously was, looking for her I see her in front of a giant statue.

  As me and my sister walk over to her I see her has a face of utter shock.

  My sister says, “This is the statue of this try’s most promi king and fouhe first king Solomon, are you ied iatue?”

  With her eyes transfixed on it, Atanta says, “Oh not really, it is just I hought I would see it here.”

  As I stare at her in fusion, I hear, “Cyrus!” Turning around I see Orb and a proag us. But the woman has a tall man passed out on her back, while Orb holds a fat Anto in his arms.
