Chapter Sixty Three
"I might be your father, but you are not worthy been called a Prince.” King Michael said and Logan gasp at his father ridicule. But King Michael continues, “When I was your age, I lead men to war and loosed none of them, I measure my opponent movement and know all about him" King Michael said
"But father the Dead Army............" Logan tried to say to defend himself.
King Michael stand up, he hold his fist and hit Logan again in the mouth. The movement is so fast that Logan can’t even dodge it successfully, his mouth begins to bleed.
"And when I am talking you stop talking. None of my subject dare talk back to me. And I said to you at first that, it only the lazy and foolish workers like you will blame their instruments for their failed work." King Michael said and looks around, he sees all the Soldier looking at the drama going on, he continues,
"Look around Logan." King Michael said and he points forward.
Logan also looks around to the direction where his father points to, he can also sees that everybody is scared. King Michael continues, but this time his tone is calm.
"These men follow me because they believed in their King, they answer my call for battle, because they believe I will lead them to victory" King Michael said and look at Logan again, his calm expression change to the ferocious one.
"But did you see where you lead them?. You lead them to death and failure." King Michael said.
"Am sorry Father." Logan said with his head bow, he was still kneeling on the ground.
"Sorry for yourself Logan. Because Lizzy just blind me into believing that you are Heavenly Prince. Because I haven't understand the criteria to why the Heaven call you it's Prince" King Michael said with a finality tone.
The last thing King Michael said breaks all hell loss. The same time, Queen Sandra enter into the tent.
"My Lord" she said and King Michael turn back to her, she also point backward, with a stern tone, she voice out. “In the tent now." Queen Sandra said finally
"Logan, you are relieve of your Commander position." King Michael said, and he walks out of the tent, Queen Sandra said nothing and follow the King away.
Logan stands up and run in total shame. Mac and Jazz follows after him, but they dare not move near him, Logan sit down far away and keeps crying all alone. Mac and Jazz are both looking at him from afar, Jazz is holding a bandage and herbs in his hand, General John and Storm also joins them.
"The King is harsh a bit." General John said first.
"Yes I support the idea as well.” Mac begins. “I mean who thinks they will use dark magic to fight us?" Mac also add.
"Now the Prince is feeling guilty for what he didn't cause." Jazz said finally
"Where is he?" Storm ask.
Jazz and Mac both point forward to the direction where Logan is sited wallowing in self pity all alone.
"What are those for?" she ask again.
"He is wounded and need to apply this, but he won't let us" Jazz said.
"Bring it" Storm said and take the herbs.
Storm walk towards Logan direction, but she can hear General John and Mac talking in whispers
But you should have talk back at His Majesty to defend His Highness.” General John said in mockery.
“General really.” Mac said and touch his own chest. “If you our Great General can’t talk back at His Majesty. Who am I just a common foot Soldier to do that.” Mac said finally.
Storm almost burst to laughter hearing the jokes from the two, it looks funny to Storm, because she also saw the kind energy that surrounds King Michael when he is angry, who dares confront Tiger when it’s angry. Meanwhile Storm finally finds Logan all alone.
"I said leave me alone." Logan said, he must have hears someone coming closer to him
"You haven't tell me that if I could remember." Storm said in her sweetest tone.
Logan turns around and see Storm, he said nothing that just turn backs. Storm move closer and sit beside him, she put down the herbs and help Logan out of his Armour, she sees his bleeding arm, she want to tend to it.
"I don't want to he treated." Logan said in a sarcastic tone
"If that is not taken care, it will be infected.” Storm said.
"I think Father is right. I mean why am I Heavenly Prince if even I can't even protect myself from bleeding.” Logan said.
"No, you are choosing because its you" Storm said
"But what can I do?" Logan said
"Do you ever wonder why you never got tired while fighting or in combat?" Storm asks.
"Nothing is special in that." Logan reply with a frown
"That is what make you Heavenly Prince, you are using ten men strength." Storm said finally, she finish up with the herbs and she apply it on Logan wound, she finally bandage the arm, Storm stands up and gaze down to look on Logan
"And Logan, the Soldiers are looking to you to make a decision. They will follow you to death, just make a decision quick." Storm said finally, at the same time she keep shaking her head.
"I don't know what to do." Logan said and spread her arms in the air.
"The White Old Mam told me that what give the dead life is under Maga Kingdom and need to be fell first.” Storm said in a thoughtful mood. “And I think the Sword you stole should be useful now." Storm said finally
Logan also heaves and was in a deep thought, he stands up and begin to go to and fro, suddenly he squeal in happiness.
"Yes. Now I got it" Logan said loudly.
Without even talking to Strom, he run away, Storm as well runs after him as fast as she can. Meanwhile Logan runs to his parent tent, he met them in an heated argument, Logan barged in, both King Michael and Queen Sandra turn at him.
"And what are you doing here?" King Michael asks.
"My Lord, please listen to him." Queen Sandra said with a stern countenance.
Logan kneels first. “Father please listen to me" Logan said.
King Michael also sit down first, his chin rest on his palm, he frowns and voice out."Am all ear" King Michael said
"Father. I know I failed at first, but a Wise King and a Father once told me that.” Logan stops and swallows his saliva. “When we make mistake, we learn from it, so that we don’t get hurt from it again.” Logan said finally.
