I hope Henry & Zhou Mi are happy with SHINee, I'm sure that they missed SHINee--just like I do...

 

 

Then I heard a big explosion underground...

 

 

'KYUHYUN!!!!!!!!!'

 

 

What was that? Maybe it's from the lab, another test of a new potion for Prince Sungmin...?

 

 

'Princess!' Eh? What made Prince Siwon run here?

 

 

'Where's Henry & Zhou Mi?!' I just blinked at him

 

 

'Wae?' I answered him quietly

 

 

'Donghae said that Henry & Zhou Mi spoke and went there...to SHINee' Henry & Zhou Mi told them???

 

 

'Deh...they're with SHINee...' I looked away from him

 

 

'Why did you do that?' Siwon held my hand to keep me calm

 

 

'I-I wanted Henry & Mimi...to be happy, they missed playing with SHINee...besides, Taemin would love to play with them...' I tried to smile

 

 

'But I heard you once, princess...you love talking to them, you always laugh when you're playing with Henry & Zhou Mi...' Aish!

 

 

I was about to disagree but then King Leeteuk came...

 

 

'Siwon, Reika...we have to talk with the others...' Is this about the witches? I sighed & followed the 2 to the throne room--where we usually do meetings

 

End of POV...

 

---------------------------------------

 

 

'Okay, first--Sugmin, why are you color pink?!' everyone looked at Sungmin who has his skin, colored with pink

 

 

'I told Sungmin to try the potion on the left that was color LIGHT RED--but it was too late when I saw him drink the potion on the right that was color PINK. And now, his skin is pink...' Kyuhyun chuckled lightly & Sungmin smacked him in the head

 

 

'When will my brother look more...decent?' Donghae asked Kyuhyun

 

 

'Maybe 5 days?' Kyuhyun guessed

 

 

'5 days?! But the royal meeting of appa's royal court is in 3 days!' Donghae panicked and so as Sungmin

 

 

'Wait, wait...King Lee's meeting of the royal court of your kingdom???' Prince Yesung asked

 

 

'Deh, he said that we have to make Hyukkie's wedding the best than mine...' Donghae said

 

 

'This might be the most boring meeting in my life!' Sungmin complained

 

 

'Say that again...' Reika spoke

 

 

'The most boring meeting ever?'

 

 

'Aniyo, before that...'

 

 

'Hyukkie's Wedding?' Donghae said & Reika nodded

 

 

'They're getting married?' Reika re-assured & the 2 nodded

 

 

'It's too early to prepare for a wedding that we don't even care about!' the 2 complained

 

 

'You don't care about our wedding, hyung? You too, Sungmin-ah?' Someone said & everyone looked at the doorway

 

 

'H-Hyukkie...?' everyone was in shock

 

 

'Don't you "Hyukkie" me, Donghae-hyung...' Hyuk Jae glared at them

 

 

'E-Eunhyuk-hyung...w-we didn't mean that!' Sungmin tried to cover up

 

 

'Sungmin, I already proposed to Hyoyeon--I'm your brother! Why wouldn't you accept my decisions?!' Hyuk Jae saw Reika & pointed at her

 

 

'Is it because of her why you're being so stubborn to me?!' It was rare for Hyuk Jae to be so aggressive

 

 

'You ! First, you stole my friends...and now, you have to steal my brothers?! Stop stealing my life!!!' Hyuk Jae yelled at Reika as he grabbed her & slapped her

 

 

Reika was terrified at Hyuk Jae but everyone can't do a thing--they know that no one can stop Hyuk Jae from being that aggressive

 

 

'Hyuk Jae! Don't hurt her! She's your friend!' Donghae tried to pull Hyuk Jae away

 

 

'My friend??? How can I be a friend with a ?! I just want her out of my life--' Hyuk Jae was cut off when Donghae punched him hard

 

 

'Hyuk Jae! Why are you like that?! You have to stop this nonsense! You're hurting everyone! Especially Reika! You said that you like her but you're just hurting her! Reika is innocent! This all the witches' fault! Your fiancée is a witch!' Donghae snapped out

 

 

'Donghae-hyung...' Sungmin tried to calm him down

 

 

Hyuk Jae wiped the blood that was coming out from his mouth & looked at his 2 brothers whom he thinks that betrayed him

 

 

'So you 2 are on her side? One someone you don't even care about? You chose a possessive girl over your own brother who tried to find someone to love all of his life?' Hyuk Jae said calmly & the 2 were speechless

 

 

'Well, I guess you did...I hope you 2 won't mess up my wedding...' Hyuk Jae stomped outside & left everyone

 

 

Reika was shedding tears while everyone was silent but then she ran to follow Hyuk Jae--Prince Yesung tried to stop her but Ryeowook prevent it from happening

 

 

Donghae groaned in frustration & felt sorry for losing his temper just now and punched his own brother--being the eldest, trying to take care of his 2 younger brothers & helping Hyuk Jae to find someone he loves. But then, he thought that all his hard work for them just wasted

 

 

'What have I done? What kind of brother am I?' Donghae blamed himself for disappointing their parents, especially her mother--after she entrusted him to take care of his brothers

 

 

'Hyung, don't say that...it wasn't your fault...' Sungmin comforted him

 

 

'Aniyo, umma...u-umma entrusted me to take care of you 2, I-I promised her that I wouldn't hurt you. You were there, before she was shot by a poison arrow...' Donghae kept his head down

 

 

'We have to find a solution fast...we need help from SHINee...' Leeteuk said

 

 

'But the 4 said that Onew is the one who's good with plans...' Shindong said

 

 

'And he banned Reika from his kingdom...' Ryeowook added

 

 

'True...but we still need him. We know that he still cares for Reika, right?' Leeteuk pleaded & everyone agreed

 

 

'Then it's settled, early in the morning--we will go to Onew's kingdom, except for...Jong Woon, Ryeowook, Sungmin & Kyuhyun.' everyone nodded

 

 

'Donghae, Siwon & Donghee--it's up to us to convince Onew to help us...'

 

 

'Wait, but what about Reika?' Shindong asked him

 

 

'Yesung, at her condition right now...would she come with us?' Leeteuk looked at Yesung

 

 

'I don't think so...' Yesung responded

 

 

'Okay, Yesung & Ryeowook--please take care of her...'

 

 

'Deh...' the 2 responded

 

 

'Reika will go back to her room later, I could check on her later...' Shindong volunteered

 

 

'Please do...' Leeteuk said & ended the meeting

 

 

---------------------------------------

 

 

Reika was crying on the floor after she tried to chase Prince Hyuk Jae, after he told her that he wants Reika to die--it felt like that she was stabbed painfully inside

 

 

'Umma, appa...I can't find the one I really love, it's better if I'll be a Queen alone...' Reika said in between her tears

 

 

'No one can help me, I'm useless...' Reika said & ran to her room then slammed the door which the maids heard

 

 

'Princess? Are you alright?' one of the maids knocked on her door

 

 

'D-deh, I'm fine...' Reika answered

 

 

'Are you sure, princess? I think you're--'

 

 

'I said I'm fine! Now leave me alone!' Reika cut her off with her scream

 

 

'O-okay, princess...' the maid got scared & left quickly

 

 

What happened to her replayed in her mind & every time she heard Hyuk Jae's mean words, her tears would start to flow again...

 

 

'I want to find someone who I really love, who would never change into someone I hate. Who is always there for me, no matter what happens...and would never change his love for me...'

 

 

'Appa, I can't be a Queen with a king--I have to do this alone. Umma, you said that I'll find someone who truly loves me--it's not true. And Oppa, I promised to you that I would take care of you & cause you no harm--but because of me, there's so many bad things happening to you...' Reika sighed

 

 

'I broke my promises. Mianhe...'

 

 

'Prince Yong Hwa was really nice to me, but because of the witches--you rejected me...Hong Gi, you were my childhood friend--who took care of me & played with me always. Minho, always played with the horses with me. Jonghyun-appa, made me laugh & always encourage me. Key-umma & Taemin--they took care of me, gives me advice & play with my pets...' Reika wiped her tears

 

 

'Onew-oppa--who hugged me when I cry, who held my hands when I'm having nightmares, always making me smile, would tell stories, sing songs with the others. But...he's gone now, he became Prince Jin Ki...' Reika stated at space but then gasped after seeing a vision of Keira

 

 

'Want to come back now?' Keira smirked

 

 

'A-Aniyo...' Reika disagreed

 

 

'Reika, if you really want to be happy--then be me! Keira always have freedom & doesn't have to be boring. You can have revenge on everyone who fooled you! Your parents, Yesung & his friends, your pets, those 4 people, the witches--especially Hyuk Jae & Jin Ki! You could shape your life into a better one!' Keira said which made Reika speechless

 

 

'See??? You can have my dark powers to restart everything!' Keira smirked

 

 

'Aniyo, I wouldn't let you lock me inside again...' Reika said

 

 

'Mark my words, Kim Reika...I will soon break free from your mind!' Keira glared & disappeared

 

 

'Reika?' King Shindong came in

 

 

'Shindong-ssi...w-what's wrong?'

 

 

'Are you alright? Did Hyuk Jae hurt you?' Shindong asked her but Reika shook her head

 

 

'He only stabbed me inside....'Reika murmured

 

 

'Come again?'

 

 

'Nothing, Shindong-ssi...' Reika sighed which made Shindong more worried

 

 

'We're going to try & convince Onew to help us...' Reika was startled & looked at him

 

 

'W-why??? He hates me & he might hate you also because I'm your friend...'

 

 

'Hyuk Jae's condition is getting worse & we're doing this for you, Reika...'

 

 

'Aniyo! I can be a good Queen just like umma on my own! A-and...I-I don't need P-prince Hyuk Jae or P-prince Jin Ki to be happy--t-they're engaged now...' Reika's eyes became teary

 

 

'Reika, don't say that...I know you are lying...' Shindong wiped Reika's tears

 

 

'O-Onew-Oppa hates me...and Prince Hyuk Jae doesn't even know me! I caused my brother's blindness, Hong Gi was killed because of me!' Reika screamed as Shindong hugged her

 

 

'It's okay, it's okay...' Shindong calmed her down

 

 

'Don't worry, Reika...my wife almost forgot me one time, I know how it feels...'

 

 

'Queen Nari also forgot you?' Reika looked at him questionably & he nodded

 

 

'But she came back & we got married...I'm sure that Hyuk Jae would come back too...' Shindong smiled sweetly at Reika

 

 

'I hope so...how's Queen Nari?'

 

 

'She's fine, you really miss her being here...' Shindong chuckled

 

 

'Tomorrow morning, we're going to Onew's kingdom & try to convince us...maybe Jessica is there with Hyuk Jae & Hyoyeon. Do you want us to bring back Henry & Zhou Mi?'

 

 

'Aniyo, let them be...I want them to play with SHINee...' Reika said sacrificing her own happiness with Henry & Zhou Mi

 

 

'Okay...we'll talk to SHINee for you. You should take a rest, it's getting late...' he reminded her as a thoughtful father-like king

 

 

'Deh!' Reika smiled slightly

 

 

'Here, it's from Nari...' Shindong said as he showed a silver necklace to Reika

 

 

'She said that she always used this when she's afraid to lose someone she cares about...after I told her your situation, she really wanted to give this to you.' Shindong explained & put the necklace around Reika's neck

 

 

'Goodnight, Princess~' Shindong kissed her forehead & headed for the door

 

 

'Kamsa, Shindong-appa...' Reika smiled at him & drifted to sleep as Shindong smiled then left
