      "NOBILITIES"

“What the Queen, now away? You know I am not interesting in the Queen?” Celle snarled. Celle why you hate Queen Catherine so much?” The maiden asked. “Because she is rude and heartless!” The young teenager boy mumbled...

 ...The aroma, the sweetness smell and the delicacy of the cake; that the Duke and Duchess’ grandson was baking the early morning was marvelous and breathtaking. The delicious smell pastry was whooshing out the kitchen’s window like flowers bloom in early winter seasons. When the cake had been cooked, he took out of the over and put it on the table. Now Celestin was waiting for it to cool down, however, for it to cool quickly he had to put it in the fridge after putting all the different sweet decorations. 

Celestin was still in the kitchen waiting for his cake to cool down so he might have a taste when he was interrupted by the knock on the door. “Who is it come in!?” Celle replied after the door open and Andrew his butler came in. “Goodness- gracious, smell delicious in here. Sir, what did you bake in here?” Andrew questioned. “Oh,Andrew I was just baking and please would stop calling me that sir stuff. Just call me by my name!” Celestin whined. “Right, I got Celle how is that?” He questioned yet another knock banged on the door and Amen his maid busted the door open. Amen was like his best friend since childhood. “Holly, Celle smell pastry in here! What are you baking? Would mind if have a taste?” She asked. 

“No, thank you! Making for a certain someone!” Celestin snapped. “Aww, no fair!” She smirked. “A certain someone, is that for the Queen?” Amen informed. “What the Queen, now away? You know I am not interesting in the Queen?” Celle snarled. “Okay-okay, Mr. Grumpy, I got it but your grandparents needed to talk to you.” Amen grinned “Yeah-yeah, if this is about the Queen then leave me out of this!?” He hissed. “Maybe-maybe not, Celle why you hate Queen Catherine so much?” The maiden asked. “Because she is rude and heartless!” The young teenager boy mumbled. “I will never- ever fall in love with her again,” Celestin grinned and went out the door to meet his grandparents. Duke Philippi and Duchess Christie's grandson met them sitting on the living room on the luxuries sofas. 

“Grandmother- grandfather, did you summoned me?” Celestin interviewed. “Yes dear, sit down because we want to talk something to you.” Christie said. “Alright, is this about the Queen?” He gulped. “Yes honey!” Christie murmured. ”Okay, let me hear you out but grandmother-grandfather... you know that I don’t love the Queen not interesting in her,” Celestin responded. “Roger that, however, they're going to be a ball at the palace. So Her Majesty pleaded to us if you would come with us to the ball.” Phillip repeated. “Child, I know that she broke your heart when you were just kids, but please can you do this for us?” The Duchess pleaded. “All right, but if the ball not going to be interesting I will returned home!” He said. “Celle is there some other girl you're in love with?” Christie smiled with a interview question. 

“No I am not! Like I said before I am not in love with her nor interesting in her. By the way I am going to get myself ready, I can’t keep you waiting- can I?” He demanded. His grandparents nodded happily while he was heading to his room, to prepared himself for the ball. Soon Celestin’s butler came in and found out that he was ready. “Wow, looks like the clothes quite fit you, Celle?” He amazed. “Yeah, it is!” Celle responded. “Okay, chop-chop let's go your grandparents are waiting for you in the carriage!” Andrew replied. “Roger that, let go.” The young Duke answered. While Celle and Andrew his butler were marching quickly in the hallway, they met Amen who halt them to ask a question about the cake to Celestin.

“Amen, what is it?” Celle asked. “Well what about the cake shall I come with it at the ball?” Amen informed back. “Yeah- yeah, however, cut it in half, so I might give to it to the Queen.” Celle repeated. “Oooh, looks like someone is falling love with the Queen!?” Amen teased. “No I am not! Just do what I said, Amen!” Celestin growled. Amen just giggled very hard and ran in the kitchen for the cake; while Celestin and the butler arrived at the carriage and went straight in. Afterwards Amen came in the carriage and it marche of to the palace. Its was a long struggles to reach the palace, but at least they arrived at it. Celestin, his grandparents, Andrew and Amen walked toward the palace’s entrance through the palace to the castle’s hallways and straight to the Royal Ball.

There were so many people in the dance ball when the young Duke came in with the others. Queen Catherine was nowhere to be found at the ball, yet Amen put the cake on the table and walk off with Celestin to talk with their friends. Celestin saw his casual friend Marcus the son of Sir Espoir Central. “Oh my, what we have here if isn’t Celle… you look great!” Marcus complained. “Thank you, you too look nice, Marcus?” He swallowed. “Well, I have to look my best in front of the Queen.” The young Sir grinned. “Oh, how interesting!” Celle replied. “Aw, Celle you are so heartless? The Queen want you to be her husband, but you insist. Gracious Celle, if I were in your shoes, I would accept it!? Every young men want to the future King of Zionside!” Marcus felted jealous.

 “Ah, good for you and them, but as for me I am way way out of her league,” Celle laughed hard. “You out of her league? I think she might be out of your league!?” Marcus said and they both giggled. When Celle was about to say something to Marcus, they were distracted by the Queen trusted guard named Emma. “Lady and gentlemen, presenting Her Majesty, Queen Catherine has arrived!” Emma introduced after everyone applauds. “Thank you everyone- Duke Celle is he in here?” Catherine asked. “I want to  have a dance with him!” She answered. “Oh no, this not happening!?” Celle mouth dropped wide open.

“Yes siree, it is happening now come you stubborn child!” Amen pulled him before the Queen gesture. “Ah, there you are Duke Celestin! I was begin to think that you didn't come? Never mind about that by the way you look nice!?” Queen Catherine exclaimed. “Umm, hooray I am here and thank you, Your Highness!” Celle gulped really hard. “Yes, Celestine.” The Queen replied. “You know that I have a short name Your Highness. It Celle and shall we dance?” Celle asked. “Alright then Celle I am happy to dance with you,” Queen Catherine giggled. Soon when the music begin, Celle and Cath were dancing beautifully, yet the young Duke was not making eyes contact with the Her Highness. He only was looking at his grandparents, who were laughing and enjoying their food. 

Later when the music pauses, Amen came with the cake to give to him, so he might give it to the Queen. “Celle don't forget this?” Amen recommonted. “AWh,thank you Amen and Your Highness this is for you.” He answered and gave her the cake. “Hwah, what is this and please call me Catherine? I might be the Queen, but I am still younger than you Celle!?” She tweeted. “It is a cake, Cath!” I just made from scratch in my kitchen.” Celestin replied. “Awh, isn't love a nice thing?” Amen winked. “Excuse me?” Celestine informed her. “Nothing!” Amen gulped while the Queen giggled so hard. “A cake- I love cakes!? My mama used to make this in the palace,” Catherine mumbled. “Then there you have it enjoy!” He gulped when the Queen took the fork on the side of the plate and dip through the pastry, reddish and creamy cake and deep in her mouth. 

“Ummm, so crunchy and delicious. Where did you learned to bake cake like this?” Catherine asked staring at it with her beautiful blue eyes. “From my late mama and it is hot in here?” He interviewed. “If you excuse me, Your Majesty, can I go outside to have a fresh air!?” The young Duke begged. “What the ball has not yet done? Wait Celle just one more dance?” Cath called. “It only a fresh air outside in the backyard. I will come back, Catherine,” Celle explained. “Oh, see you later then!” Catherine mumbled sadly. Just before Celestin could go outside, he saw a weird and strange man in black clothes on the nine feet balcony looking at the crowd with furious eyes. “He doesn't seems harmful and I can breath in here.

Just a quick past outside and back,” Celle thought and ran off quickly outside, reach it in time, and lay down on the cooling bench that night looking at the shimmering stars. The trees in the palace’s garden blew fresh air and cleansing out any hot air on him. “Ah, what a nice breeze out here, in there and dancing with Queen Catherine was really hot like hades,” Celestin thought again laughing to himself when he said the last sentence “hot like hades”. “Let me lay down just for a few minutes,” Celle said out loud to himself and he fastened asleep. Now in the dream Celestin dreamed that he was walking along the peaceful garden when he met the same man he saw in the palace on the balcony.

 He was even more furious as before when he saw Celestin. “Who are you stranger?” He interviewed. “The name is Raven and not Stranger!” He said. “What do you want with me?” Celestin questioned. “You stay away from my Queen!” Raven roared and transformed into this nightmare great beast with sharp claws. “If don't stayed away from her, I will destroy you!?” Raven thundered. Celestine was really terrified that he closed his eyes, yet he was surprised when he discovered the bow and the arrow on his hand and big sack full of arrows on he’s back.

 Afterward Celestin passed away his fear and engaged the great beast. Celle prest the arrow towards the beast which pierced on it right rib. The beast screeches in agonies, so it was coming after him. “How dare you?” Revan growled ferociously and was ready to attack him, however, the young Duke ran away and that where he woke up terrifying about that mysterious dream.Soon he was sitting on the bench panting breathless, Celle notice that the big sack of arrows was next to him, but no Raven disguised as the horrible great monster. “

Phew,the dream was really, that means something is happening in the castle.” Celle thought and took away the mysterious sack of arrows and put it on his back. The young man Duke was marching towards the peaches, oranges, and lemonade trees trying to go home, but he was exhausted so he fainted on the soft green grass. Yet he was caught by this stranger girl in white, who laid him softly on the grass. Since the mysterious girl didn’t see Celestin waking up, she took him to his grandparents’ house.
