My Romeo's Lullaby

Cora sat on the counter and saw Andy working fast and hard on the food. He set up five plates for his best man. One with fish, two with steak, one veggie and one with seeds and nuts.
"Why does Koda eat so little?" She asked while her feet dangled against the cabinet. Andy didn't know if she should tell her.
Well, Koda wouldn't mind, everyone else knew.
"She has a eating problem." Andy washed his hands again and ran to the stone oven to get out the fish. He got the hot fish and placed it on a plate.
Cora looked around just thinking. "Why? and how?"
Andy sighed, not because of what she asked, just how he was going to answer it.
"Uhm, when she was little she didn't eat much and when she grew older she didn't eat at all. She said it made her unhappy.
Now she is trying to eat, but her body won't accept it, it isn't used to it. So she's now struggling to keep everything down even when it's like a sandwich."
He made the plates ready and Cora walked over to the vegetable table. She grabbed a few salad types and crambed it in a big cup.
"What are you doing?" Andy followed her gaze wich lead to the pottery. She put the salad in another cup and crushed it with a stone. "My dance teacher did this always when I couldn't eat because of a dress." She remembered it very well.
The chef always made a milkshake with bassically a meal in it so she could drink it whenever she felt like she was going to faint. God, she hated dresses.

At the table Koda thanked Cora with a 'Are you kidding me look' and drank the milkshake. The whole council at at the long table, Andy in a big chair on the head.
Cora sat away from him, wich she didn't like.
CC came running in at last and gave the king a letter. Cora recognised the material and sigil immediatly.
"What's it about?" She stood up and walked up behind him. Andy read the letter fast with wide eyes and closed it before Cora could read a word.
"Why'd you do that?" She tried to snatch the letter from his hand but he was quicker.
She sighed and walked away. "What was that about?" Ashley asked.
"Nothing." Andy grabbed the letter and threw it in the open fire. He walked out and followed Cora.
She walked to her room, but Andy picked her up bridal style and carried her to his room. "What are you doing?!" He kicked his door in and walked through.
"I'm going to do you."

Koda walked past his big room and heard loud screams and moans. She rolled her eyes and walked on.
The milkshake worked pretty well and she wanted to thank her, maybe another time when she isn't so...what would you call it...huh....'busy'. Koda walked to her own room and closed the door behind herself. She looked around and sighed.
The room was dark and empty. Only a bed, desk and a chair.
She landed on her bed and looked at her ceiling.

A moment later she heared a sound of feathery wings outside and smiled.
It was her. Koda ran outside and greeted her mother.
"Mother! I missed you." She hugged Koda back and stroked her hair. "How is my angel?" Her sweet iron voice asked. "I'm doing fine Mora, I ate a salad shake."
Mora laughed and followed her back in.
"I'm glad dear." Mora sat on a chair and koda on the bed. "Something interesting happened while I was away?" Koda thought. "Well actually, Andy is learning a high stannding girl to fight so she can win a battle against F.E.A.R." Mora nodded. "Yes I heard all about that, The missing princess, the king is Aiden's champion, who is Andy's champion? does she have a name?." She muttered.
Koda shot up from her bed. "What?" She asked with wide eyes. "That can't be, how can king franklin be a champion?!"
Mora didn't understood the sudden outbreak. "What's wrong Koda? yes Franklin stood down from the throne, why all the fuz?" Koda walked around the room in panic.
"This can't be happening, this can't be happening." She repeated to herself the same way Andy did.
"Koda! tell me now, what's going on?" Koda stood still and had trouble breathing. "We may have set up a fight where a princess needs to kill her own father for freedom..." Koda stormed out of the room and ran to Andy's. She didn't even bother knocking and kicked the door open. Luckily Andy was on top of Cora under the covers. Andy pulled Cora's hair back and growled. "WHAT" He hissed. "We have a problem."

Mora saw koda standing at the door and ran to it too. She looked on the bed and her mouth dropped.
"Cora." she whispered. Koda looked back and Mora. "You know her?!" Cora and Koda said at the same time about Mora. Andy got of her and rolled on his back. He was in a rather bad mood right now. "Mora, please, please don't tell father." Cora teared up and covered herself.
"That's what we need to talk about." Koda started.
This was going to be an afwul night...
