�What are we going to do?� Dale asked Brenda. �We can�t just tell him.�
�But we have to tell him some how,� Brenda answered. �It is the law that this happens at this time after marriage so come on�lets go tell him.�
�No,� Dale said. �Let�s make a plan first.�
�Such as?� Brenda questioned.
�Well�.that I�m unsure of,� replied Dale.
�Let�s talk about this later,� Brenda said. �Anyways, its supper time.�
They then headed to the dinning room to have supper.
�Hello mom and dad,� Jr greeted them.
�Hello,� Dale and Brenda said.
�How was your day?� Brenda asked.
�It was ok,� Ashley answered. �We just hung out and talked about stuff.�
�Umm Prince Jr,� Josh started. �Can I ask you something?�
�Of course you can Josh,� replied Jr.
�Do you want me to train the new knights?� Josh asked.
�I think the king would better off answer that,� Jr answered.
�And my answer is yes Head Knight Josh,� Dale said.
�Ok sir,� Josh said. �I�ll start tomorrow morning.�
Everyone then ate dinner. When dinner was over, Ashley and Jr headed up to their room. Their room was a beautiful place that everyone dreamed of. It had the best bed and the best of everything.
When Ashley got in their room, she sat down and got out her diary. Ashley was the princess that everyone loved. She was a sweetheart at heart through you didn�t want to ever get on her bad side. She had long brown hair that flowed so nicely in the wind. Her eyes were so nice and hazel that everyone wanted to be just like her.
Dear Diary,
Today at dinner was interesting. Everyone was talking about different things that there has to be changes up around here and the only question is what. Head Knight Josh is training a whole batch of new knights. I�ve seen some of the boys and I have to say that they are all pretty in their own way especially Shannon but I wouldn�t trade any of em for Jr. The queen and king seemed to want to know if we were doing swell. Well of course we were since Chad hasn�t been around lately. Thank god he hasn�t because I am not letting him lay a finger on Jr. And Servant Emily wasn�t at dinner and she always is at dinner. I wonder where she was. I know for sure she was in the kingdom because Knight Shern confirmed that. Yet you know how I said how cute Shannon is well the thing is he wasn�t at dinner. Wonder if Emily has finally gotten over Martin and is dating Shannon. If so, I wish her all the best because that�s what she deserves.
No plans for tomorrow yet. As I said above, Josh is training a bunch of new knights well the king and queen discuss some important issues with Mike and Brian from Head Island who are coming to visit.
Well I have to go. Jr is coming in and some things I say in here are left unsaid to him sometimes.
�Hello Jr,� Ashley greeted Jr as she put her diary away.
�Hey Ashley,� Jr said.
Jr was the true prince. He was prince on the throne ever since day 1. He was the sweetheart of the kingdom. No matter what mood he was in, he was always nice to everyone in the kingdom. He had blue eyes that would melt your heart and nice short brown hair.
�Everything ok?� Jr asked.
�Yeah,� Ashley answered not wanting to say anything about what she wrote. �Do you believe Shern about Emily?�
�Yes I do Ash,� replied Jr. �He knows not to lie if he wants to be a knight here because rules state that any knight that lies before or during training is not allowed to be a knight at the kingdom. Also, that knight could be punished further.�
�Ok,� Ashley said.
�Good morning Ashley and Jr,� Emily said. �Breakfast is served��
�Emily, quiet down please,� Ashley interrupted. �Jr is going to sleep in today ok?�
�Yes ma�am,� Emily answered. �Do you want breakfast?�
�Yes I do Emily,� replied Ashley.
Emily and Ashley then headed down the long stair case that led to the living room. They then walked to the dining room and sat down at the table.
�Where were you last night at dinner time?� Ashley questioned.
�Ummm�..mmmm�.,� Emily stuttered.
�Do you have a boyfriend?� Ashley wondered.
�Ummm�.yes,� Emily answered. �I realized that nothing will bring Martin back to me any day so I decided to go after someone new and when I saw Shannon, I fell in love right away.�
�So last night you went on a date with him?� Ashley asked.
�Yes,� Emily replies. �We went to the restaurant on Joanne Ave. in the downtown area and had supper together. And oh my gosh he is the sweetest guy in the world. I just want to be with him every minute of the day.�
�Did you set up a second date?� Ashley wondered.
�He said that he�d like to go out with me again it�s just the time will depend on when the training takes place and where,� Emily stated. �He explained that most of the training will take place at the courtyard through some of it is taking place in different places downtown. Are you aware of this?�
�Yes I am,� replied Ashley. �Jr told me about the whole new training program and that is included.�
�Ok,� Emily said. �Well I hope Shannon gets accepted so we can spend tons of time together.�
�Well I wish you both all the best,� Ashley said.
*****************
�Are you ready for training?� Josh screamed.
�Yes sir!� all the knights yelled.
�Ok then,� Josh started. �I�m Josh. You all are to make sure that you call me sir at all times. It is the true greeting for someone that�s higher then you. That includes the king, queen, prince and princess. They are all at higher level. And you especially use sir around Mike Helton & Brian France since they are totally in charge of everything.�
�What about servants?� Shannon asked. �Are they higher sir?�
�They are at even level as you all,� Josh answered. �That is till there is a head servant Shannon. When there is a head servant, then you must start the yes sir stuff ok?�
�Yes sir,� replied Shannon.
�Why are you getting a new batch of knights� sir?� Shern asked.
�We need to Shern,� Josh started. �Due to the events of this year, I am the only knight left. Jr has the skills yet cannot due to his prince status. And also we need a new batch due to the upcoming events that are taking place that you all will be part of. We will come up with are final group of knights through then we will split em because of things. So now I ask that we get started. May everyone please grab a sword and pick a partner.�
******************
�Mike and Brian, come on in,� Dale said.
Mike and Brian then entered the room and sat down.
�Hello and welcome to Summer Island once again,� Brenda greeted them. �We both understand why you are here and have talked about it.�
�Have you told Jr and Ashley yet?� Brian asked.
�No we haven�t,� Dale answered. �We are thinking of telling them tonight yet are unsure if we should. We told Josh so he knows when he is doing the training with the knights.�
�Well you have to tell Jr before the 15th or we have the right to step in and change it all, understand?� Brian questioned.
�Yes we do,� Dale and Brenda replied.
�Ok,� Brian started off. �Mike has come with some interesting information for you. Mike, you may tell them now.�
�I have looked around and got one of are interior designers to come,� Mike explained. �Her name is Amiee. She has done lots of kingdoms and will be getting the ideas and plans from you and then designing the palace for the grand opening on the 1st of December. Do you understand those rules?�
�Yes,� Dale and Brenda answered.
�Good,� Mike said. �Amiee, please come in.�
Amiee then entered the room and said, �Hello Queen Brenda and King Dale. I�m Amiee and I am here to help with the process of preparing the new castle for Prince Dale Jr and Princess Ashley. Are they here right now?�
�Umm�I do not know,� Dale answered. �Hold on, I�ll find out. Emily!�
Emily ran to the living room and said, �Yes sir.�
�Are Prince Dale Jr and Princess Ashley still here?� Dale asked.
�Prince Dale Jr is sleeping well Princess Ashley is upstairs writing something,� Emily answered. �Do you need them?�
�No we don�t,� replied Amiee. �Why hello Emily. How has life been since seeing each other last?�
�It has been wonderful sis,� Emily replies. �Why are you here?�
�I am designing the new castle for Prince Dale Jr and Princess Ashley,� Amiee answered. �So looks like we can catch up on lost time now.�
�Yes it does,� Emily said. �May I leave now king?�
�Yes you may Emily,� replied Dale.
***********
Jr laid in his bed and slowly got up. He went to the window and looked out to the courtyard. He watched as Josh worked each knight harder and harder. He then went to the door and was about to head downstairs when he saw a letter. He looked at who the letter was from and saw it was from Chad Knaus. He then opened it and read it.
Dear Prince Dale Earnhardt Jr,
Aww...I hate writing that greeting to you. Gosh, why do I have to do that? Oh wait�I shouldn�t have. Do you remember that fateful day in August when you killed Robbie and I killed Mikey? You probably remember those two things yet I think you forgot one thing�the promise you made to me man. I thought you were meant to keep this promise. Oh what was it again? Oh yeah�you promised me that you would face me in a battle in YOUR courtyard after your hand was better and you got outta that shit caused. Well, you did on November 1st if I�m correct. Yes, I read the paper and saw that. Hmmm�10 days after (yeah�I wrote this on the 10th buddy) and yet nothing from you. What the hell is a matter with you? I thought princes were to keep their promises to everyone they made them to unless either one fell dead. I thought that princes of your kindness were to tell the truth to everyone they spoke to. Well by not doing neither, you have a right to loose your throne Jr. So shall I do that or shall I let you get away with it? Well, I�m going to give you another chance. If you don�t come to me by the 20th, I will take this to Head Island and you will be in good trouble especially after the deal with Robbie Loomis.
Look forward to seeing you in the future
Signed,
Chad Knaus
�You bitch!� Jr screamed. He then got out a piece of paper and wrote a mini letter to Ashley and then left.
He was heading out when Ashley saw him and said, �Where are you going?�
�I�m going to go see someone that I got a letter from,� Jr stated. �I will be back tomorrow, ok?�
�Ok sweetie,� Ashley said. �Be careful! Don�t let Chad doing anything bad to you, promise?�
�I won�t,� Jr promised. �Bye!�
�Bye!� Ashley said.
Jr then left the castle and headed out to find Chad.
�Can I please speak to Chad?� Jr asked.
�Well of course,� Terry answered. �He has been expecting you. Shall you come in?�
�No thank you,� Jr replied. �I need to be on my way.�
�Ok,� Terry said. He then went and got Chad.
�Well there you are,� Chad said as he came to the doorway. �How�s life?�
�Its ok,� replies Jr. �Besides some little things I think its going really well.�
�Good to hear,� Chad said. �So you got my letter?�
�I received it yesterday Chad,� Jr answered. �And that what brings me here.�
�Couldn�t come here without getting the letter?� Chad questioned.
�No I just was busy with the knight training lately,� replied Jr. �Sorry I didn�t come earlier Chad.�
�It�s ok Jr,� Chad said. �I�m not mad at all at you.�
�Well maybe because you know I�m about to ask you something,� Jr started. �I�m about to fulfill the promise that we agreed on. Chad, do you accept my challenge to a duel on November 16th at the Summer Island Courtyard that will be fought in front of all my people and all your people?�
�To death?� Chad questioned.
�I will have to think about that Chad,� Jr answered. �Yet as of right now, just a plain duel in the courtyard in front of everyone�accept or don�t accept?�
�Of course I accept bitch,� replied Chad.
�Don�t start the disses early Chad,� Jr advised Chad. �You will pay for it in the end.�
Jr then left. Chad stood there knowing that in 2 days, he�d have the biggest day of his life so he headed straight inside and started working on his tricks
***********
�Ashley, where is Jr?� Dale asked.
�He left yesterday to go out and do something,� Ashley answered. �He said he�d back tonight.�
�Ok,� Dale said. �Thanks for letting me know princess.�
�You�re welcome,� Ashley said.
Dale then left and went to his chamber where he was meeting up with Josh.
�Hello Josh,� Dale greeted Josh.
�Hello sir,� Josh said.
�How was training with the guys yesterday?� Dale asked.
�It was ok,� Josh answered. �I have around 20 guys who I�d say shall be the knights well the others are just not good enough and should be eliminated.�
�Take them out next meeting and make the final group,� Dale directed.
�Ok sir,� Josh said. Josh then left
******************
�Shannon thanks for the wonderful afternoon,� Emily said. �Yet I�ve got to go home and make supper for everyone.
�Shall I walk you home like a true gentleman?� Shannon requested.
�Of course you can,� Emily said.
They then started to walk back to the kingdom together.
�So how was your first day of training?� Emily asked.
�It was wonderful,� Shannon answered. �Josh was impressed by my work.�
�Well that�s great,� Emily commented. �I�m hoping you get accepted so we can spend more time together.�
�I am too Emily,� Shannon said. �Oh look, time went by fast. Were already home and that is so sad to hear my dear.�
�And it sucks that we don�t get more time together,� Emily added. �Shall I see you tomorrow?�
�Yes you will since my day is free there also,� Shannon answered. �My next day of training is the 16th so we got today and tomorrow together.�
�Well I shall see you tomorrow then,� Emily said. �Good bye Shannon.�
�Ok then my dear,� Shannon said. �Good bye Emily.�
Emily then went inside as Shannon left.
�Where have you been Emily?� Brenda asked as Emily came in the door.
�I was out with my boyfriend,� Emily answered. �I�m sorry if I�m late ma�am. I promise to never be late again.�
�You are not late Emily,� Brenda stated. �I was looking for you and couldn�t find out so don�t worry. Can you make tonight�s dinner a special one?�
�Certainly,� Emily replies. She then went to the kitchen and started working on dinner.
When supper was ready, Emily brought it to the table and called everyone. As everyone was sitting down at the table, Jr came in the door.
�Hello sir,� Emily greeted Jr. �Let me take your jacket and stuff well you go start to enjoy dinner.�
�Thank you Emily,� Jr said. He then headed to the table.
�Where did you go to Jr?� Dale asked.
�I went to Chad�s,� Jr answered. �Back when I hurt my hand, he asked me to fight him right after I killed Robbie and I said I had to go get my hand looked at so he said promise we will deal duel after the mess is all over. So I was originally suppose to go see him on November 2nd yet didn�t so he sent me a letter so I went and fulfilled the promise and challenged him. He accepted to a duel on November 16th.�
�When is this duel because I have to train the guys?� Josh asked.
�In the morning Josh,� replied Jr. �I request that ones you are keeping do come and see what a typical battle is like. What do you say?�
�I say yes to the offer,� Josh replies.
�Good,� Jr said. �It�ll be a good visual for them.�
�Everyone can you please listen?� Dale asked. �I and Brenda have some news to tell you all. When a marriage between a prince and princess gets to a curtain point, they are asked to leave the castle that they are housed in and have their own castle with their own knights and their own servants. Amiee the designer of the castle for Jr and Ashley, will be come are servant and Emily will go over to their castle. Josh will be sending one of the men over as their head knight and some of the others to be their knights. The castle will be ready for you two on December 1st.�
�But I don�t want to move away from you guys.� Jr pleaded.
�You won�t be far Jr,� Brenda stated. �Just down the road. Listen, it�s against the law not to do this. If you don�t do it, we have a chance of you not being allowed to be the prince. Would you like that to happen?�
�No,� Jr answered. �Ok I�ll follow through with this but don�t expect me to be the expert, ok?�
�Fine with me Jr,� Dale said.
�Now everybody listen please,� Josh directed. �Welcome to class #2. The following people made it.� He then read out the people who made it.
After he was done reading out those people, the people who didn�t left well the rest stayed.
�Congratulations on making the cut,� Josh started. �We will continue to study elements and then near the end of November, I will split you up and you will go to your castles. Now, we are here today to watch a fight occur against Prince Jr & Chad. Please watch the skill and stragedy used by both. It is key to who you will be when you�re older.
Then everyone showed up.
�Is everyone here boys?� Ryan Newman asked.
�Yes,� Chad and Jr answered.
�Ok then,� Ryan Newman started. �We are gathered here in front of every one of you to watch a battle go down once again. This battle is between Prince Dale Earnhardt Jr of Summer Island and Chad Knaus, former knight of former King Jimmie Johnson. Do you boys have any requests?�
�I do!� Chad screamed. �Jr, you said that you�d think about a to death battle. Do you accept or disapprove?�
�I disapprove Chad,� replied Jr.
�Ok, I�m done,� Chad said.
�Alright then when I say the magic word you may begin,� Ryan Newman started. �3�2�1�FIGHT!�
Chad and Jr fought back and forth. Trying to hurt one another and only to find they failed.
�Wanna change the rules now Jr?� Chad asked.
�Wanna give up now?� Jr countered.
�You are kidding me!� Chad yelled. �You�re such a bitch!�
�Right back at yeah dick head!� Jr screamed.
They then fought even harder. Both going back and forth till one fell.
�Well got yeah now Prince charming,� Chad teased.
�Chad, you�re not going anywhere,� Josh started. �I heard why you�re here to face my dear friend. Do you accept my offer to face you right now?�
�Of course,� Jimmie answered. �To death?�
�Yes,� Josh replied smiling. �First, Dr. Austin and team shall take Prince Jr to the hospital to be looked at.�
�Certainly,� Dr. Austin said. �Nurse Randy and Surgeon Peach, can you take the prince to the hospital?�
�Yes sir,� Randy and Georgia answered. They took Jr to the hospital.
�Well looks like we have a second fight and this is to death,� Ryan Newman started. �This fight will be between Head Knight Joshua Snider and Chad Knaus, former knight of former King Jimmie Johnson. Do you boys have any requests?�
�No sir,� Chad and Josh said.
�Then you can begin when I say the magic word,� Ryan starts off. �3�2�1�FIGHT!�
The boys fought for hr upon hr upon hr and at the end Chad was dead. All of the knights from Summer Island clapped and then headed to the castle. Josh then headed to the hospital to see Jr.
When he got there, Josh ran straight for the room Jr was in.
�How is he?� Josh asked Dale.
�He is knocked out right now,� Dale answered.
�Man I hope he wakes up soon,� Josh said.
�Yeah same here,� Dale agreed.
Suddenly, Jr then started to wake up.
�Hey Jr,� Ashley said. She then gave him a big hug.
�Hey Ash,� Jr said.
�Well hello Prince Jr,� Dr. Austin said.
�Hello Dr. Austin,� Jr greeted the doctor.
�How are you feeling Jr?� Dr. Austin asked.
�My arm is really sore,� Jr answered.
�Can I see the arm that hurts please?� Dr. Austin pleaded.
�Of course,� replied Jr. Jr then showed Dr. Austin the arm that was sore.
�Well part of the reason is the bruises all down the arm,� Dr. Austin started. �Chad must have forced most of his energy there creating these which make your arm quite sore. Nurse Randy, can you get some ice for Prince Jr?�
�Yes sir,� Randy answered. She then went and got Jr some ice. A few minutes later she came back with the ice and handed it to him.
�Thank you for the ice Nurse Randy,� Jr thanked her.
�Your welcome sir,� Randy said. She then left.
�I�m going to need Prince Jr to stay over night due to the fact he was knocked out and to observe his arm,� Dr. Austin started. �Do you approve?�
�Yes I do,� Prince Jr answered. �Are you guys ok with it?�
�Yes we are,� Everyone else replied.
�I�m glad that you all approve,� Dr. Austin said.
�I have a question,� Jr started. �Can I have lunch please?�
�Of course,� Dr. Austin replies. �What would you like?�
�Chicken please,� Jr said.
�Ok,� Dr. Austin said. He then left.
�Josh, what happened between you and Chad?� Jr wondered.
�I killed him,� Josh answered. �He is now dead with the rest of them.�
�Ok,� Jr said. �Good job!�
�Thanks,� Josh said.
�I love you,� Ashley said.
�I love you too sweetie,� Jr said.
The doctor then came back with some chicken for him.
�Here is the chicken you requested,� Dr. Austin said as he handed Jr the plate of chicken.
�Thank you,� Jr said. He then took a bite of the chicken. �It tastes really good Dr. Austin.�
�Glad you like it,� Dr. Austin said.
�Can I speak to you out in the hallway please?� Dale requested.
�Certainly,� Dr, Austin answered. They then went in the hallway. �Now, what do you want to ask about?�
�Jr was knocked out,� Dale started. �Now, what caused that to happen exactly?�
�Spoken like a true father there sir,� Dr. Austin commented. �Because the force that Chad applied to Jr.�s arm was so hurtful and painful, it got to a point where Jr couldn�t stand it. And also, because of the other deals with the fight, it all added up.�
�So there is nothing further wrong with Jr?� Dale double checked.
�No there isn�t King Dale,� Dr. Austin answered.
�Ok,� Dale said. Dale then went back into the room.
�Hello Jr,� Dr. Austin said.
�Hi,� Jr said.
�How is your arm?� Dr. Austin asked.
�It�s not as sore as before,� Jr answered.
Dr. Austin then took a look at it and said, �The marks are not as dark as before and if you are correct about the pain level, then your arm is healing nicely. Nurse Randy, can you get some more ice for Jr please? And maybe some cereal for breakfast so he eats?�
�Yes sir,� Randy replied. She then went and got a bowl of cereal and some ice.
Soon she was back and she left it there. She then left and went to do something else.
�Jr�Nurse Randy brought you breakfast,� Dr. Austin started. �Jr?�
There was no answer and suddenly the room turned silent.
�Nurse Randy!� Dr. Austin screamed. �Bring me an IV immediately with water. Prince Jr, hang in there. I will make sure that nothing happens to you. Surgeon Peach, call Summer Island immediately and report that Prince Jr has just blacked out without notice.�
�Ok,� Randy and Georgia said. They then went and did what they had to do.
Dr. Austin started to run some tests and then went to check the results. Soon Randy had come back and connected the IV to Jr.
Just when Dr. Austin came in the room with the results and was about to fix the problem, all the important people from Summer Island walked in.
�Ok everyone calm down please,� Dr. Austin started. �Trauma like bugging him does not help his condition. Chad put a drug on the end of her sword that is clear and when he hit Jr many times with the sword, he got the poisonous drug on him and he is not out of it again but calm down because I have the cure and will try my hardest. But first I ask that you all got sit in the waiting room. Thank you!�
Everyone then left and sat down in the waiting room.
Dr. Austin then ran a treatment on him and Jr started to wake up a little but then fell back knocked out. Dr. Austin tried again and yet no reaction.
�Surgeon Peach!� Dr. Austin yelled. �Come here right away!�
Georgia ran to where Dr. Austin was and said, �What is the matter sir?�
�Prince Jr is completely out due to drug that got rubbed on him by Chad during battle,� Dr. Austin started. �How do you do the treatment that gets rid of the worst drug conditions?�
�Oh well its complicated,� Georgia said.
�Then go ahead and do it and make sure it works,� Dr. Austin directed. He then left the room.
****************
�I hope that Prince Jr will be ok,� Emily stated.
�He will�don�t worry,� Shannon said. �Now where were we before we got interrupted?�
�You were trying to kiss me on my breast,� Emily reminded him. �But how can you think about that when the Prince is fighting for his life?�
�Because you�re too good looking,� Shannon told her. �I�m sorry.�
�Don�t be sorry to me Mister,� Emily started. �Be sorry to Jr.� Emily then left the room. She was pissed off at Shannon for not giving any shit about the man he was going to protect yet she really wanted to go back to him since he was sooo sweet.
*****************
�I have a update for you all,� Dr. Austin said as he entered the room. �Surgeon Peach performed a complex drug cancellation procedure on Prince Jr and it worked. Through the prince is to be left alone for the rest of the day. And only his parents and his wife are allowed to see him so may everyone else leave. Don�t be worried. He will be perfectly fine tomorrow.�
Everyone left except Brenda, Dale and Ashley.
�Can we see him please?� Ashley begged.
�Remember what the doc�,� Dale began.
�Ignore that King Dale,� Dr. Austin interrupted. �You may not go in the room and talk to him. He needs to left unbothered for 24hrs. Through you can go look through the window and see what he looks like.�
Dr. Austin took them to the window and they all looked in together.
�He is conscious,� Dr. Austin said. �Its just with the effects of what Surgeon Peach did it requires 24hrs of straight sleep.�
�So you have food being injected into him correct?� Brenda double checked.
�Yes we do,� Dr. Austin answered. �That was one of the first things Surgeon Peach made sure of.
�I don�t know what to say,� Ashley began. �I mean, he�s are prince. How the hell are we to know what to say? I mean, I hope everything turns out ok.�
�Don�t worry Ashley,� Dale said as he turned to her. �Jr will be fine when this is over. I�m sure of it.�
�Good Morning Jr,� Dr. Austin said as he entered the room.
�Good Morning,� Jr greeted Dr. Austin.
�How are you feeling?� Dr. Austin asked.
�I am feeling so much better thanks to you and Surgeon Peach,� Jr answered. �My arm only hurts a little and I feel like myself.�
�That�s great to hear because almost the whole darn family wants you,� Dr. Austin said. He then motioned for everyone to come in.
Everyone came in and took turns giving him hugs.
�Hey everybody!� Jr said.
�Hello Jr,� Everyone greeted Jr.
�Jr said he is feeling much better,� Dr. Austin reported. �Whenever he is ready, he can leave.�
�Well I just have to get my shoes on and I�ll be ready,� Jr said.
He then got his shoes on and left. Everyone followed him out the door. As they were walking towards the kingdom, everyone was talking.
�Now that everyone has spread so much love, I don�t want to move to the castle,� Jr complained. �How do you feel about this Ashley?�
�I don�t want to either but think for a second,� Ashley started. �What are we going to do when we have are child? There isn�t enough room at the kingdom for are child. We need are own palace to raise are future children. You see why they made this a law now?�
�Yes I do,� Jr answered. �Thanks for explaining something like that to me.�
�Your welcome,� Ashley said. She then grabbed his hand and they headed back to the castle hand-in-hand.
�Emily, can I see you please?� Shannon asked.
�Yeah ok,� Emily answered. Emily hadn�t spoken to Shannon since the incident with Jr and was really not looking forward to speaking to him. She went to where he was and said, �What would you like knight Shannon?�
�Servant Emily, this is non-business,� Shannon started.
�Then excuse me,� Emily said as she started to leave.
�Wait�.,� Shannon started off again. �I just want to say I�m sorry for not giving a damn about anyone else. Its just I feel in such a deep love with you, I never wanted it to be separated for a moment by anyone. Can you forgive me?�
�Shannon, I�ve been sad since that day because I never want us to be apart,� Emily explained. �So of course I can. Shall we go back to the way we were?�
�Oh now your talking,� Shannon replied.
�You thinking naughty or nice?� Emily questioned.
�Are last day thinking,� Shannon answered.
�Shannon!� Emily yelled. She then ran to the kitchen.
�Come one, come all,� Dale started off the speech. �We have something to show to are prince and princess. Prince Dale Earnhardt Jr and Princess Ashley Earnhardt have shown the best love you can find anywhere in 10 months and have reached time where they leave the head castle and go to a castle of their own. Both have accepted to this and have saw the castle inside so lets give a round of applause to Designer Amiee.
Everyone then clapped and partied it out some more.
�Now there will be some switches,� Dale continued. �First of all, Servant Emily originally came as Princess Ashley�s servant so Emily will be the servant over at their castle. The new servant for myself and Queen Brenda is Amiee. Now, I present to you Head Knight and Knight Trainer Joshua Snider to present you the list of knights.�
Josh came up to the stand and said, �Hello to all. My name is Joshua Snider yet you can call me Josh. I want to give a hand first of all to Prince Dale Jr for showing me a wonderful way to make these boys the great knights they are today. Now one knight stood out among all the knights. Shannon Myers accomplished each task with excellent skill and precision. Everyone always said �how did he do that� or �how did he do this� and Shannon would help. He shows me the characteristics of a head knight. Knight Shannon Myers, can you please come join me up here?�
�Certainly sir,� Shannon answered. He then went and stood beside Josh.
�Knight Shannon Myers, you have done well with us at the King and Queen�s palace yet I have to say you need to go else where,� Josh continued. �You will no longer be Knight Shannon Myers. As of right now, I present to you Head Knight Shannon Myers of the Summer Island Prince and Princess castle. What do you have to say for yourself?�
�Wow I�m so happy and proud to his this honor,� Shannon started off. �I just want to say to all the knights that are coming over to the Prince and Princess Castle, may god bless us all and may we protect are two most wonderful people. Thank you for everything.�
Everyone clapped until Josh said, �The people who will be going to the �Prince and Princess Castle� are: Shannon Myers, Barry Hoover, Jeff Clark, Kevin �Two Beer� Pennell, Phil Drye, Danny Earnhardt, Troy Prince and Bill Snyder. The people who are at the �Queen and King castle� are: me, Joey Mier, Chris Crumbly, Shawn Ward, Greg Osborne, Chad Walter, Sammie Gonzales and, Mark Kennerly. Thank you for taking the time to listen but now I shall go. Good bye!� Josh then left as everyuone clapped.
�Nice job Josh,� Brenda commented. �May Prince Jr and Princess Ashley please come say what you have to say before we finish up.�
Ashley and Jr walked up and stood at the stand.
�I just want to start off by saying thanks for everything since I was a kid,� Jr started. �Everything that has happened through the years in the walls of that castle is what lives in my heart forever. Those are the moments that I will remember. Whenever I got sick, you all were there for me. You made sure that my world was always wonderful. Whenever I needed your help, you were there offering advice to me. Whenever I needed someone to come with me for something, you all offered. That is the care and love I experienced in the castle of my mom and dad�s through I understand what I have to do. I understand that I have to go and live a life on my own with my true love which I am find with doing espically in a place like this. The memories I hold are the ones I spoke of but also the ones I spent with Knight Martin Truex Jr, Knight Michael Waltrip and Knight Tony Eury Jr. Those 3 will be in my hearts forever no matter what happens.�
�Yeah I agree with Jr totally on that,� Ashley adds. �Ever since I�ve gotten here I�ve seen all that.�
With that, the two lovers held each other�s hands and went inside the castle. As they walked in, they knew that they were about to start their own special memories forever.
THE END!
