Chapter Seven: Why Should Prince Michael Be King?

             

             People start trembling at the appearance of Prince Michael.  One day, Prince Michael

turns to Ivory and says, "I do wish people would quit trembling in my presence, after all, I am 

an average teenage witch boy.  As so are they all average teenage witches." 

              Ivory clears her throat as they flash into another room, into another building.  She then states,

"Yes, you are normal with one exception from these other teens, and that is you are of royal lineage

to the throne!"

             The chubby instructor, blowing bubbles out of his pipe, came over to Michael and said, 

"My Lord, the class would like to know what is bothering you on such a sunny day as today."

             Prince Michael tries to blow the instructor off at first, but that only makes the matter worse.

The prince is, in fact, told, "If it is a problem of the crown (his), it was a problem of the class, so

out with it."

              To this, the Prince starts whining about not wanting to be king.  To which the instructor

responded by saying, "Prince Michael, you have the finest qualities to one day be king, but to my

knowledge, you have yet to take the test.  You should really take the possibility of being a king up

with your grandfather, the King."

              While the prince thought on these things, he realized he had other options opened to him.  He

would first of all go seek advice from his parents (the Dutch & Dutchess of education).  He felt like

visiting his grandfather about anything was the last thing he should do (or so he thought).

                                                   *Snap* *Crackle* *Pop*      

The next thing he knew, he was in his parents' office.  

              Michael's parents greet him and ask him what they can do for him.  He explains to them that

he does not want to be king and asks why his father is not king.  His father says, "I am too busy being

the Duke of Education, you need to bring these bothers to your grandfather, the King.  One of the 

important things that you need to do is take the test first.   Remember, a prince has more power than

a duke, and a king has more power than a prince.  See the king bring him your problem.

               Michael looks at his Mother with pleading eyes.  His mother just shrugs and says I can't

help you now, you have more power than I do.  Go visit the King.  *Pop*

                                                                                                           *Krackle*

                                                                                                           *Snap*

                  The next thing that Ivory knew, they were in the king's throne room.  The King greets

the two of them and says, "he had heard of the prince's troubles.  He tells him that until he takes the

test, he will have to worry about the troubles that go along with being a prince.  Memorise the Lord's

Prayer first, then worry about being king." 

                   Prince Michael & Ivory flew over to the Prince's dorm.  On the way there, they saw a 

troubled youth.  Ivory warned Prince Michael to "Beware of wolves in sheep's clothing.  In other 

words, in this world, what you see is not necessarily so."

                   While Prince Michael agreed with her, he could not pass up the troubled youth.  They

stopped to see what the matter was.  The youth was frightened of the two of them (The Prince &

Ivory) and bowed to the ground.  The Prince asked the youth to rise and wanted to know what the

 matter was.                  

                    The troubled youth said, " A fire just burnt my house down, and killed all my family

with it.  It also took all my possessions; now I have nowhere to go, my Lord."

                    The Prince is not sure whether to believe the youth at first. Then he asks the youth to

take him to this burned spot. Although the youth is frightened by the Prince,  they led him to the

spot.  The Prince takes a deep breath and says, Shemei, Shemei,sha, all burnt objects return as 

normal.  Shemei, Shemei, Sha, all that was of the house return as was."  

                   The youth thanks the prince and the familiar.  Then says, "What about my family and

familiar/"

                  The Prince apologizes but says his powers are limited.  "We will be back with a familiar in a

couple of days.  As for now, I must get home and get some rest."

                  So Prince Michael and Ivory did go home and get some rest.  As for how they got a familiar

for the troubled youth, that is for the next chapter.
