Chapter 4 - Chapter 4: My Brother!

 

"I do not think my father would leave me a letter to kill someone, especially when I was that young. So, I think you should consider what you are implying in this case, lady."

Thelia glared at me, and I knew she wanted to keep talking, but I had shut this discussion down. She raised her hand, and the two earlier soldiers came in and stood behind her.

"I hereby announce to the only family member of Berk Van Polan. He is sentenced to death and will remain in prison until the end of days. You, Zark Van Polan, can apply the decision to the Valiant court through an Abogado or Abogada, but keep in mind that if you initiate the trial procedure, Berk can face worse consequences, such as death. The current decision for him is one of leniency. We do not want to tarnish the Van Polan name, hence our decision to put a curse on him as he is bound to the princess of Valiant. If her heart stops, his heart stops, and only the princess can break the curse. The Valiant kingdom welcomes a trial for fairness, and the Van Polan family can get an Abogado or Abogada to help out with the Trial preparation."

I know why she let the soldiers in now, for protection.

"Your request to meet your brother here is denied for now. I do not see it as you being cooperative enough with the Valiant Kingdom to approve a visit. That is all from us!" She said, and I rose from my chair, hitting the table with my fist in anger, staring her down.

Victoria tried to calm me down, but I pushed her away as both soldiers surrounded me, grabbed my arms, and pushed me down to the ground.

"I WANT TO SEE MY BROTHER!"

"Take him back to the car!" Thelia commented.

The soldiers hit me on the head again, and the bleeding worsened as I could feel the blood running down my face. They dragged me out of the room, and I waited a little bit as the idiots forgot to cuff me and thought I was unconscious. In the corridor, as the distance grew and I didn't see extra soldiers with the queen and Victoria behind, I stomped both my feet on the floor as the soldiers stopped. Elbowed the right one while getting hit from the other one on the side of my nose, and he tried jumping onto me, but I ducked down as his nose caught the wall, and I hit him with a hard right fist in his groin area as he fell on the ground screaming. I got up, but so did the other one, and I made a high down kick as he had no time to prepare an attack, and he hit the floor hard with blood beneath his face. The nose probably broke on impact. I searched the soldiers and found a card that looked like one that could open doors. Victoria screamed at me from a distance, and Thelia went down on the ground with both her hands as it looked like she was chanting something when green flames surrounded her.

"Ah...Fuck me!"

I ran as if it all depended on the survival of the motherland of Sweden and Paladin at the same time as the lamps in the ceiling started to flicker. When I turned around, it was not a small fucking fireball...it was covering the whole corridor. I hurried as I felt warmth behind me and saw the double door, but it was also a right turn at the end. I lost my balance on the floor for a bit, but managed to get up quickly and jumped to the right corner, where the fire barely touched my t-shirt, which caught on fire and turned green. I rolled around on the floor to put out the flames. The sound of the alarm sounded as I saw the fire had put a giant hole through the double door, surprising me with the damn power of the queen. I kept running in the corridor when a woman dressed in office clothing and had the secretary porno glasses on her as I approached and grabbed her by the throat, pushing her towards the wall.

"I am only going to ask this once: where is the prison cell Berk Van Polan is held in?"

I leaned my head up with all the blood running down as she stared at my face with her blue eyes. She was choking, but she did not look afraid. She pointed in the direction I was already heading, and I released her. She coughed and screamed after me:

"TURN RIGHT AT THE END AND THREE DOORS DOWN!"

I kept running with a headache that was starting to get worse. I turned right, counted the doors quickly, and reached the third one; then, I held the card against the device as it opened the door. I went in when two guards, who were eating some cake, looked at me in surprise. I quickly grabbed the baton from the left one and hit the head of the one on the right, who was sitting down. I got jumped from behind and fell on the table with the bastard trying to strangle me, and a quick elbow made the soldier out of balance, and I hit the baton on the head of the soldier so he passed out. I tried to understand all the buttons around, but it was not in a language I understood. I started to press all of them as the other door opened, and when I went in, it looked like an isolated metal area in between when a red flashlight scanned through me, and it was an announcement from the speaker:

"No weapons allowed for visitors."

Several different colors of fireballs came out from the walls, and I quickly dropped the baton.

"Enjoy your visit!"

The doors opened, and the only lights were in the middle of the walking path, with prison cells on both sides. I quickly started to look inside each of them for my brother.

"BERK!" I screamed and saw a hand reach out in the last cell to the right.

I ran towards the cell and heard my brother's voice.

"Zark...Please say it is you!"

I slid on the ground and grabbed his hand while he showed his face to the light.

"I am here, I am here, Berk! I am here now!"

His right eye was completely shut, with blood-soaked hair and a cut on his forehead. I pushed him closer to me to hug him, but he reacted when I touched his back and the feeling of skin that something sharp had dug into, and I looked at my hand, soaked in blood from only touching his back. I refused to let him go and just sat there hugging him through the bars as he cried on my shoulder.

"Where have you been?" He kept repeating while sobbing.

I couldn't keep my tears back as the big brother who should be the stronger one of the two.

"I am sorry, Berk!" I kept repeating to him.

The doors opened up from the other side. I leaned back and caressed the face. Berk kept crying, and my tears just continued to run down my cheeks.

"Listen to me, Berk! I will get you out of here, I promise!"

"I promise, Berk! I will get you out of here! I will find a way!"

He kept crying when he suddenly passed out and was on his way to fall. I kept holding him so he wouldn't fall on his back. I turned to the right and saw Veronica and the queen coming with several soldiers, as Berks' arms were just relaxed over my shoulder.

"GET A DOCTOR HERE NOW! GET A DOCTOR!" I kept yelling as Veronica's face turned pale, her eyes turning purple.

She hit with her fist on the ground, with the soldiers flying in all directions, hitting the prison cells hard except for the queen, and she rushed to me, seeing Berk all bloody, and she put a barrier of purple fire between us and the queen, who could not pass.

"THIS WAS NOT THE DEAL!" Victoria screamed out loud.

I was already dizzy from the blood loss, and I tried saying something to Victoria, but nothing came out of my mouth before everything went dark.
