The Broken Prince - Chapter 137
NOTICE: NOT A FULL UPDATE BECAUSE I’M STRUGGLING HOW TO WRITE AND I DON’T EVEN KNOW IF I WILL CONTINUE WRITING NEXT MONTH. MY APOLOGIES.
Water started to fill up in the hole and Alexander submerged himself fully. He started to glow even more and was starting to transform. Contrasting the small and dark space, a bright light made the small enclosure glow as the Prince of the Sea transformed to his true form. Pearl glowed like stars and started to circle around him. His eyes were close and he felt like he was home. He could feel his feet disappearing as he senses that a familiar part of him embraced his lower half.
His ragged clothes were no longer on him as he was half naked. His fair figure was now exposed, skin glowing like it was kissed by the moon. His tail was no longer same as the old one as it glimmered so much as if it was a gem on its own. Crystalized figure it was and would soon show itself to the world. His long hair was now tied into a bun but some parts were dangling on the side of his face.. His eyes were accessorized by pearls and small scrapes and fractals of white diamonds .
The mark of the sea emerged and glowed on the back of his neck and his features were highlighted even more. The color of his eyes change into crystal blue and a glowing tiara formed right on his head. A crystallized trident started to form right beside him. The structuring never been seen by any other. It glowed ever so brightly along with the beating of the heart of its owner. Alexander grasped the trident with his hand and everything around him glowed and swirled. As soon as the base of the trident touched the ground, a rumbling was felt and a huge sound of thud was heard all over as if a King just rose to his greatest heights.
Everyone looked at the prince, totally mesmerized by his true form and beauty. They were able to see what happened through highly enhanced cameras that follows a contender everywhere they go. King Archemidius and everyone in the private room looked at the Prince of the Sea as if they did not know him. No one has ever seen him transform with this form, not even his own parents.
A tear fell from Alexanders’ right eye. It glowed so much and left star trails as it ventured to the bottom, as it touched the pit, up above, where everything was on fire, a howl of the wind was heard. Hade stood there confused by the sudden occurrence. All traces of fire were swept out in an instant and the ground where he stood on cracked. Jets of water started to show up everywhere and a sound of a whale crying engulfed the arena. The jets of water started to form into a huge whale figurine above Hade. He used his power to summon a fire shield that enclosed him from what may happen.
The massive water figurine then dropped to the ground and the water started to embrace every corner of the arena. Hade started to float in the air, not wanting to get wet but the water was rising so fast that he was unable to cope. He was immediately submerged underwater and if it weren’t for his shield, he would be drowning and wet right now.
He looked at where he trapped Alexander and saw that the pit was glowing. A few seconds passed and the huge boulder that covered the only escape route ruptured and turned into sand. Hade felt like he was going to be sucked in as a powerful force was starting to draw him closer to the hole was. A bunch of sea creatures then emerged from the hole as if it was the hole of life. All types of creatures swarmed the now water filled arena.
Everyone had their eyes wide as they look at the grand extravaganza displayed before them. The arena became a mini world that belonged to the sea and they wanted to root for their heir really but was too captivated at the moment that they were silently rooting for Alexander to win.
Hade was mesmerized by the view he was in. It looked like he was under the sea, all creatures that he has and have not seen were here. Just as he was so focused on his surrounding, a huge ball of glowing water emerged from the hole and when it popped, the Prince of the Sea revealed himself, a sheer bright light shining throughout the whole arena. Hade wanted to see but the brightness was too strong that he felt like he was looking at a star.
But as soon as it died down, what was left was a prince that looked so godly ethereal that his heart dropped and he just felt like knelling to the ground. Alexander released a huge breath, spreading his arms out open as he twirled for the first time in his new form ever. A smile was etched on his face before he opened his eyes.
Everything was in order, except for this person who belonged in the land. He no longer held remorse but inside him, this one must be evicted from his sight and he will get rid of him for sure this time. His tail moved gracefully, eyes were soft and aura calm but behind that was a deadly intent that was going to explode any moment.
FIFTEEN YEARS AGO:
“Dear, do not run too fast. You’re still not used to your legs yet!” Queen Athena exclaimed worrying that little Alexander might trip and scratch his knee. Today was the day that Alexander had his pair of legs. The boy was beyond thrilled about it and immediately want to go to the land and try them. He always wanted to run along the shores and play under the morning star.
Queen Athena held King Zeus’s arm, both looking at their son with adoration. Both were happy and content with the life that they both have as long as they are together as a family. Although, Queen Athena and King Zeus were not romantically connected at first as they were arranged by their parents. Queen Athena that coming from the richest family in the Kingdom of Archea and King Zeus being only the heir.
Queen Athena knew about King Zeus and King Hade and how their fall out broke the both of them and so she tried to lift King Zeus to his feet seeing how dead he was being tore away from who he truly loved. The now Queen knew that she was never going to be more than how King Zeus felt for Hade.
She bled all over in attempt to help the broken prince to rise up back to his throne. Doing such did took most of what she had and she did it not thinking of anything in return. She just wanted to help out a friend. But life slipped in the back door and made a person who she will soon come to love.
But now that she looks at everything that she has done, she is happy that she made that decision to help someone who she thought that would never give something back in return as now, she is married to him and they both have a bundle of joy that they were happy to raise.
“I was like that once I got my pair of legs and my parents were like us.” King Archemidius spoke as he kept looking at his solo heir with a smile with a beaming joy in his eyes. Queen Athena smiled and continued to look at her son that was now chasing birds on the shore.
Young Alexander ran along where the boarder of the land sea were. The sea water kissing his feet and the birds flying away when he runs towards them, making him giggle. The young boy was so joyful and was not minding anything in life, he was just content with what he had. The morning star was high up in the sky but the moon was vaguely seen, silently raising the tide of the sea that seemed like it was chasing its prince towards the land.
Alexander continued to run on the shore until he was quite far from his parents, He did not notice up until he bumped into someone. He looked up to see a person that was cloaked and was facing back. Young prince mustered his apologies to the stranger. The cloaked person turned around and faced the young prince. The person looked very kind and had a calm aura that put the latter at ease. The person smiled and spoke at the prince.
“Your majesty, want to know how your future will come to be?” Young Alexander nodded eagerly making the person smile warmly. When the person held Alexander’s hand, his brows furrowed as he could not see anything as everything was foggy but then he saw flash of a memory that made him look at the smiling prince in terror.
“You are not a kid are you?”
