Almekia Kingdom
40. Diamond - Chaos

As soon as we arrived at the palace it was not as quiet as we had imagined. What the hell is going on? Not usually the palace is as crowded as this at seven in the morning.

With little difficulty due to the large number of people passing by, Amy drives her car. Then after arriving, he asked some soldiers to help me and my wheelchair out of the car. Next he pushed me and my wheelchair into the palace.

“Hai Diamond, it's great to see you out of the hospital.” A well-built man in his military uniform approached us in the middle of the commotion. He was Colonel Toshi, the supreme leader of the South line and the superior of Opal.

“But I was just going to see you after this. You got greetings from all my men on the South line,” he continued to be friendly to me.

“What's the colonel? Why is it so noisy here? Why are you in the palace so early?” Ask Amethys to Toshi without further ado.

“Ah miss Sumeragi. Turns out you are even more beautiful when viewed up close like this.” Colonel Toshi clearly seemed fascinated by Amethys.

Well anyway Toshi is a normal guy and still singgle. It's natural that she's hooked and so on Amy.But there's still an unpleasant tickling sensation for me to hear her woo my woman in front of my eyes. Don't take it, my girl is oi!

“I am asked to face, do you guys also want to face? How about we just be together?” He explained and gave us a way. It looks good to be walking side by side with Amy. Just be careful if you dare to macem macem with Amy ya Tosh!

The two of us simultaneously nodded and walked hand in hand along with the young colonel, heading to the palace meeting room.

What's the matter? Why do I suddenly feel bad? Unpleasant premonition due to this very awkward atmosphere. Something must have happened really bad here. Is it about Jasper?

The harder I thought about it the more it made my head hurt.

The three of us are welcome to enter the palace meeting room. The room is super spacious and magnificent with floors and walls and large pillars made of shiny white marble.

The red rug extended from the entrance to the far more magnificent throne of the queen. Thrones made of white gold and crowned pomegranate stone. Red banners depicting the royal emblem also decorate all corners of the room.

There I could see my father talking to some lieutenants very tensely and officially, ordering something to them. Behind him, the queen sits limply on her throne. It looks very pale, sad, slumped and more messy than the appearance of everyday that seems beautiful, perfect and majestic. Has something happened?

“Diamond? What are you doing here, son? You still can't move much, why even wander here?” The queen immediately departed from her throne, scattering towards me as soon as she became aware of our presence.

I shook my head to answer. Saving words because speaking is a pain in itself for me at this time.

“What's up, Bi?” ask him.

I could see clearly the Queen's body shaking, her tears were beginning to melt, she was slightly staggered back, like she was about to faint. Damn my body I can't even get out of a wheelchair, I can't catch her body.

Fortunately my father realized it, he immediately got out of his place and caught your body, supporting it not to fall.

“Jez, Jasper missing, Diamond! He's gone from the palace! he left without saying a word to me.” Continue Your Majesty on the sidelines of his broken cry.

My heart seemed to sag a few centimeters to hear it. No way! Something I was most afraid of had happened. How could Jasper act so foolishly? And damn why can't I stop it?

“Jasper doesn't go alone. Sapphire and Platina are also missing. I think sergeant Zircon and sergeant Opal are also with them.” Said the father adding, throwing a piercingly cold look suspiciously at me.

Hey that's right, do you think I had anything to do with this? How could I have the heart to let Jasper who did not know the rigors of the world outside the palace go without an escort? Moreover, Platina and Saphir are my own siblings? There's no way I'll let those spoiled girls come with him. Never.

“Excuse me, Queen, Prime Minister and Minister Syu, I'm facing giving a report.” Colonel Toshi informed us of his forgotten presence.

“I have contacted South line and North line, but both Opal Sumeragi sergeant and Zircon Zankovick sergeant who should have arrived at their respective headquarters since yesterday, until now has not arrived there. I'm sure they went along with Prince Jasper.”

“No! They wouldn't do such a stupid thing!” Amethys, who had been silent, spoke up. “How can they possibly leave the palace without being caught by anyone?”

“They go by driving their own gear. Several border guard soldiers of the capital caught them and had a chance to chase using gear. The suspect of the breach was three gears known as Advandli, Seraphin and Serphen."

This time it was the Syu minister who replied, he was the minister in charge of defense and security of the capital.

"Soldiers had pursued the three gears before they were finally encircled by two other gears that had been waiting outside the guard wall, namely Fenrir and Hydra. We still keep the footage of the event as evidences”

“It's gone too far, they left without permission with the royal gear-gear. Two princesses and a prince. Although there are Zircon sergeants and Opal sergeants, I'm not sure they'll be okay.” Colonel Toshi added, making the atmosphere increasingly quiet and gripping.

“One thing that makes me wonder is why are you two here at this early hour? How did you guys know that there was a commotion in the palace while this thing was still a top secret kingdom?” Minister Syu took advantage of the situation to corner and suspect us.

He actually has a personal vendetta against me. This Minister Syu is the father of sergeant Mao, my former secretary on the West line. Like most people he also thought me and his son were lovers, and he probably thought I dumped Mao until the girl asked to be transferred from the West Line. In fact, Mao left me alone.

“Everyone knows that you two, especially Colonel Diamond are very close to them. It wouldn't be surprising if he helped them escape”

If it was in my usual state I would have been knocked down by that brash old man! But right now I am completely helpless, other than because of the state of my body, I also have no reason to refuse my involvement in their actions.Well even though this time I am innocent people.

“We just want to see Your Majesty Ratu” replied Amethys seemed very unhappy with the accusations that were handed to me.

“Ahaa, Miss Sumeragi!” The grin of the wide Syu minister is full of hatred, lest he also hate Amy? Maybe she thinks I left her son because of Amy? Mao pushed me to get Amy…

"I think you're also part of this plan. Sergeant Opal Sumeragi is your younger brother isn't it?”

“Yes, indeed Opal is my sister and the five of them are also very close to us. But we really don't know anything about their plans. We don't know about the kids' escape. They had not even visited the hospital since two days before the Jasper” exam Amethys replied.

“Is there any proof?” Minister Syu increasingly urged and forced.

“Of course! You can ask directly to everyone at the hospital” Challenging Amethys do not want to lose. "Diamond cctv room recording Diamond jg bs be proof"

“Then let me just find information to the hospital.” Colonel Toshi mediated at the right time. Meanwhile my father and aunt Nephrit were silent, considering the possibility of our involvement.

“No need. Too time consuming and can not be ascertained the level of truth” refused to enter syu.

“If you two are indeed innocent, prove it with ‘mind reading’ here and now also” he added cynically.
