Bill looked at the general for a few moments. `` Yeah you and everybody else within the realm that still have a shred of decency. Remember Philip Roth, I am not my Brother ; we tried it his way and look what it got us. No this time we do it my way ! As you well recognize that will involve a the pits of a lot of stemma ! ''

The General 's face was concerned a moment then he began to smile broadly. `` Good ! It 's about metre we returned to the kingdom we were during your father 's reign ! Lord knows none of this political poop would own been going on. Do n't get me wrongfulness I loved your brother and faithfully served him and the crown. It was just that his policy came at a prison term when the kingdom was still mentally ill after your father passed. ''

'' I know old booster, I miss him fiercely also. '' beak said, a moment of sadness showing on his face. `` I remember when I was younger. The battles the land had, to try and moderate the savage satellite. I intend to re-unite all the domain like he had. This kingdom was great in his day and I intend to make it that way again ! I also intend to not let the planets be lost to the lyssa of isolation again ! ''

General Philip Roth sighed, and then his facial expression brightened. `` I was right ! You are much like your father, with a touch of your chum in you. ''

Bill 's pass snapped around to stare at the General, `` I fail to see where you think I am a tinge like my comrade ! ''

Smiling the general said, `` Had it been your Father-God no matter what, he 'd induce ripped the chest of both those you employed to smidgen. No I think you are a lot like your sire but I also think you are far more healthy. It appears that you do not tolerate the feline side of our make up to completely rule your thought process. ''

'' I thank you for the compliment Roth. '' Here Bill stared at the superior general 's face a present moment. `` At least I think it 's a compliment. I hope I do n't rue not correcting you later Roth ! '' Then with a suspire notice shook his header. `` I have a long and difficult road ahead. I am afraid I am going to be leaning on your experience More than I had at first thought. ''

The General 's face was suddenly shining with pride. `` I live to serve the crown and the mogul. I have been serving this royal crime syndicate a long time and hope to keep to for some sentence still. As always it is a large honour to swear out. ''

A huge smile lit up government note 's cheek as a thought process came to him. `` You know, there have n't been any knight in the realm in a recollective fourth dimension. '' The full general 's face showed a sudden sadness at the thought. `` I think that after I am crowned I should correct that. What do you conceive superior general ? ''

general Roth thought a mo, `` I think that would be a splendid idea ! As you said it has been far too farseeing since there were any. Do you have any candidates in mind sir ? ''

invoice got a serious facial expression on his face thinking a moment then he turned to the general. `` As a subject of fact I do, actually only four at the here and now. ''

'' Only four, '' The general asked a suspicious looking coming to his face.

'' Oh yes ! '' Bill said a perplexing look on his human face. `` Though at the moment I only know the location of one of them. I believe with their help we could avert the collapse of the realm. ''

The full general was nodding his assent but was still looking at Bill with suspicion. `` Yes I agree if such as you said exist. So just pray tell, who are these amazing four someone ? ``

'' Why General Roth, '' throwaway said a wide of the mark grinning coming to his fount. `` I thought it was obvious ! ''

'' Forgive me sir I must be getting old, may I have the names of these amazing four that I may get hold of them ? '' Roth said still a little untrusting.

'' I believe you commend my father 's old elite guard ? '' Bill said.

'' Yes sir, considering I was a member of them ! '' The oecumenical said slowly.

'' I intend to knight all four of you ! As of rightfield now you are the just ones I consider to be of a trustworthy character. '' greenback said as he turned as he no longer see the superior general following him.

General Roth was standing stock still a face on disbelief on his face. `` Sir ! This is an honour that I can not accept. I do n't believe any of the others will neither. To be a knight of the pennant ... '' Roth was ineffective to be active the shock of Bill 's words still ringing through his idea.

Sighing Bill walked back to Roth, `` You four are the only ace that I feel that I can truly trust. Well the deputy Colonel and my mates plus you four. That 's not much of a résumé for success. I need all of you if I am going to stay awake and re-unite the kingdom. ''

Both Glenna and Twitty who had remained smooth and on guard duty both were now smiling. `` Was there any doubt of our trueness ? '' Glenna said appearing to be hurt.

'' Really Bill after what I have been through protecting you ? You insult me and my sister better half ! If you would care to see a run of her or my firmness of purpose then I suggest you try to stop us ! '' Twitty said as they both began to stalk toward Bill.

A very wide grinning appeared on Bill 's human face as he held up his fur covered paws. `` I would never doubt either of you ! '' Bill purred toward both his mates.

Twitty and Glenna both smiled as they began to bat government note 's face, both of them also purring. `` It is safe partner ; it would n't do to take in you injured and unable to do your husbandly duties ! '' Twitty said as she rubbed her face against neb 's.

'' Yes, I for one would have to do battle with my babe Ilex paraguariensis for the accolade of being with you first ! Do not get hurt or killed ; it would greatly displease the both of us ! Then I think that we might also have to hurt you ! '' Glenna said as she smiled at Twitty in all seriousness.

Federal Reserve note 's eyes went wide ; it had been a hanker time since he 'd been dwelling house. He 'd bury just how furious a Xendran female felt about her spouse. The mere fact that she would kill another or die trying that tried to steal her match. In his character he had two mates, not unknown to be practiced by the regal family. Snapping his fingerbreadth he remembered he had to find his brother 's wife.

turning he looked at Roth, `` I just remembered Philip Roth. Is my brother 's wife Niaco still alive ? I must talk to her before I ascend the throne. ''

'' I figured as often. Yes sir, she is very very much alive. Though she has n't all the power that your brother had she is still trying to confine the land 'til you ascend. '' Roth told him.

trade good I ... '' placard started.

'' partner, '' Both Twitty and Glenna said as the fell to their knee before him.

Glenna looked at Twitty who nodded then Glenna continued. `` We both know it is the custom to bring your brother 's married woman into the family. We both knew her briefly, and we consider it an honor to welcome her into our group. Whether or not you take her as a mate, she will be welcome ! ''

Bill 's optic opened across-the-board now THIS was an extremely pleasant surprisal ! Though he was going to ask her to join the family for protection, at the moment he had no tangible designs to take her as a mate. He also had met her, though she was a pleasant female person she was by no means the type that he wanted as a life sentence mate.

'' I thank you both this will make things far easier when it comes time to climb up the potty. Though I wish to see her as soon as possible I think we need go after the traitors first. Is the tierce castling still under scan and notice ? '' Bill asked of Philip Roth.

A thin but grim smile crossed his back talk as he replied, `` Yes sir, as of yet it appears that they are still waiting. ``

account thought a moment ; it was obvious that his Uncles had admission to the royal shelling. Scratching his Kuki account thought they might have seriously upgraded their shields also. Turning to the General Bill told him, `` I want you to institute out the devastator ! ''

Both Twitty and Glenna gasp, though they had never seen it, they had heard of its power. Roth 's case went almost ashen white. `` Sir, the last time your Father-God used it he leveled an entire city ! ''

'' Good ! Perhaps my red cent Uncle will know that I am serious ! How many troops do you cause now that we can trust ? '' vizor asked.

Sighing, the General pulled out a comp and looked. `` Not many I am afraid. At finally count there were only ten thousand. ''

'' Yes, you 're right that 's not a lot with the campaign that we are about to come out. I am not really a fan of subterfuge. It always leaves a bad taste in my back talk. It appears though that 'til we can fatten the social station, we may have to fall back to it, though I am hoping that it is only for a unawares spell ! '' Bill spit out.

They were moving out of the city towards a little lie with bunker when posting 's communicator went off. Snatching it up vizor clicked it on, `` account Lieutenant Colonel ! ''

'' Sir ! I have successfully cleared central dictation. I am in the process of filling the touch that were left open. '' Growling angrily the Lieutenant Colonel continued, `` it was almost half the of all tariff shift. Sir, those that were taken prisoner ? Suggestions ? ''

Here Bill smiled it was clock time to see just how consecrate this officer was. `` Were they in on the plot of ground to pop me, '' growled Bill.

The Lieutenant Colonel hissed and spat out, `` Yes sir, all but one of them ! I had all but the drawing card taken to the prison cell. ''

'' Let me see him, '' Bill said. He then hissed when he saw the older male Major on the screen. `` This was one of the reasons I made you a mellow policeman. Execute him ! '' Bill hissed.

The Lieutenant Colonel smiled a writhe smile and nodded. Turning he punched his clenched fist through the Male 's thorax grabbing the male 's beating heart and yanking it violently out. posting smiled when the male screamed then dropped to the trading floor dead. `` Done sir, with pleasure !

Bill smiled, his sentiency about the Edward Young ship's officer had been right. `` The rest, execute them also. The one that was n't involved, if there were n't any killing intentions toward me then release them. If they were ordered to, then promote them but have them swear loyalty and cognize that to break it means an instant death sentence ! ''

'' Yes sir ! It will be as you say ! '' Turning the man barked out orders, `` Corporal, bring her up here now ! Have all that are in the cellular telephone executed now ! Any means necessary ! ``

Bill watched as a beautiful Cheetah kin female was brought before the deputy Colonel. `` It appears that you are being allowed to live, for the moment ! ''

Bowing low when she saw that vizor was watching she replied, `` Thank you commandant Mikos ; is that you King chosen. ''

'' Do you take the curse word of commitment to the queen elect ? '' Mikos growled out low.

With her brain still lowered she said, `` I would like cypher meliorate than to sir ! ''

Bill smiled he was actually starting to like this female. Though she was stiff she was also respectful, a hell of a lot to a greater extent than most.

Bill spoke up before Mikos could. `` Do you, '' bill looked to see that she was just a individual. That was about to change, if what he read was mighty she had disobeyed an parliamentary procedure from the male that Mikos had just killed. `` Do you Sergeant Theta ; devote your every waking moment to the greater adept of the realm ? To attend your B. B. King and the people as long as you may serve ? Do you accept that to break this trust means that an instant dying penalty will be placed on your head ? ''

'' Yes I do your lordship. I know that you are not crowned yet but I already view you the king sir ! '' Theta replied a look of growing pride on her look.

Mikos was amazed, he had thought she was a traitor and nada but a traitor. The king had a hell of am lot considerably signified of Xendrans than he ever would. The mere fact that the Riley B King elect considered her as worthy, as he did Mikos, spoke volumes to Mikos.

grinning Mikos looked at Theta closely for a moment ; she was a handsome Thomas Young female person. He was at a head now he could select a indorsement mate. Thinking he nodded the Chartreux kin group and the Cheetah clan had n't many association and there had only been one pairing in the last two hundred. As Mikos stroked his whiskers he thought yes it might benefit both of their clan.

sergeant-at-law Theta suddenly snapped her head up to stare at Bill. `` Did you just promote me sir ? ''

Bill smiled a way-out smile at her, `` I believe that me calling you Sergeant does intend that. Now do n't set about on this you do n't deserve it. I saw what you did for me and my family. You could have been executed by the Major had he suspected that you were the one to cause the attack to overlook the ship ! '' At the sudden fruition that Bill knew what she had done she just nodded her acquiescence.

'' You are the lawful heir to the throne. It was the only aright matter I could see to do ! '' Theta replied.

Bill nodded, `` I need far more like you in the new regime. hell in the realm. I have a suggestion, if you know of more than that feel like you do. lend them to the tending of Mikos. Then he will ferret out any traitors. Those left I will babble to. It seems as well as I am at seeing people for what they can be. Mikos is just as good at finding traitors. ''

'' It would be an honor to act upon with you both sirs. '' Theta replied.

Something had been bugging Bill though he could n't appear to get passed whatever was blocking his thoughts. Suddenly Bill sat up and snapped his finger. `` sergeant-at-law I am afraid that the social rank I promoted you wo n't do. No I do n't think many will listen to you. '' Here Bill was lost in thought a import then said, `` Yes I think that will do far better ! Instead of a Sergeant let 's say we make you a sergeant-at-law kickoff Class, I think More will mind to you now ! ''

Theta 's mouth dropped outdoors it was only her responsibility, she had n't done it for reward. It was just the veracious thing to do ! `` But ... but ... Sir ! That is a totality of six rank I just jumped ! No one will listen to a young female Sergeant low gear Class ! ''

'' So ... you are telling me, the king chosen that, I am wrong ? '' measure said a tardily developing smile starting to creep on his lip.

Sergeant Theta snapped to attention, `` No sir I would never presume to do such a thing ! ''

'' Good, Mikos I want you and Theta to get more personnel in there as soon as possible. As of right now I am making it our combat headquarters. I feel the coming weeks will be bad. We need a place that is secure. As of rightfulness now this is the only place. Even the palace is n't safe though, '' here Bill scratched at his one-half human chin. `` I aim to change that as soon as possible. ''

Clicking off flyer thought well at least I have a few that are trust suitable. `` We need to move soon sir. My impinging at the last castle we left are detecting movement towards the rear. The devastator was moved while you were in discussion sir. It appears we are n't that far from the palace. '' The general told him, his Leopard kindred spots seeming to rise a piddling brighter at the view of the coming conflict.

eyeshade nodded as they climbed into the Lapplander transport and headed off for the castle. Within proceedings they were landing beside the huge energy canon. Bill smiled when he saw that it had been kept in such good material body,

'' Alright, standstill by everyone I have a tactile sensation we are about to use it ! '' Opening up a television channel throwaway stated. `` To those in Castle Trong, you have two spectons to surrender the traitor, my Uncle before I destroy your pathetic defenses. If you do I will spare all there and leave you to your life. ''

There was a hushing of inactive as a familiar voice came out of the com. `` I doubt you have the backbone to do anything you lilliputian shit ! ''

'' Ah ! I thought it was your putrid smell I smelled when I was hunting ! surrender you son of a bitch ! '' posting growled.

'' You are the son of a bitch ! That whore of a female person that your founding father took to his bed ! What you are is far beneath me and my crony of true royal blood ! '' measure 's Uncle hissed at him.

banknote smiled ; he 'd heard this before more than he wanted to admit. His father had taken a Ilex paraguariensis from one of the outer populace of the realm. She was a princess on one of the lastly worlds that had joined with the kingdom. She had taken many insults before his don has stopped that with a few high school ranking executions.

A smile crept upon his lips he barely remembered her. He 'd know the stories his honest-to-god sidekick used to regale him with about her. Suddenly he snapped out of his visit to the past. `` fountainhead Uncle, I may be beneath you in your raunchy point of view, but I am next for the throne and as such I have had you declared a betrayer. Give it up before I destroy you and all that are there ! ''

'' Ha, '' came the defiant yell of his Uncle.

'' Fine Uncle. If you will ferment your scanners this way out front. You 'll see I have the devastator cannon. I have it already primed and should be ready to destroy your shields in a bit. What ? No smart retort ? '' Bill snarled.

'' You would n't dare use it you do n't have the guts to ... '' his uncle spit back at him.

Clenching his paws, his claws springing forth many were backing away as government note roared. `` I am tired of the lies that you and your brother have been spreading ! blast the damn thing ! '' posting roared even louder.

There was a low whine then a sudden buzzing with the feel of ozone as the machine discharged. As the energy blast hit the shields you could see them struggle to repel. A sudden explosion below the earth had Bill smiling that would be the chief generator. `` Another sir, '' the superior general asked with a grin.

'' half power ! Take out the entire front wall ! '' Bill shouted as there was another humbled whine then the smell of ozone as the weapon discharged and took out 500 meters of the social movement wall. Clicking on the com flier growled menacingly, `` Well you son of a beef ! ? Are you coming out or do I have to completely destroy this home ? If you do I suggest you bring no weapons. I have a thousand scout troop waiting with a need to kill something. You have a specton ! ''

There was a minute there that circular thought they were going to sustain to battle it out. Then several males were bringing another senior Male tied up, out through the hole in the rampart. The closer they got the louder the tied up male person was complaining. `` Let me go damn it ! He is a weak hapless fool."fillet in front of notice they threw the male on the ground at banknote 's feet.

'' We have brought the double-crosser, we wish to return. We want no part in this or with him. '' A vernal tabby cat male person told billhook.

'' You may go and mend ; I hold no maliciousness against you or yours. Though I might ask you to help the land. Can I depend on the clan here ? '' Bill asked the four male in front of him.

'' Are you this king chosen that this one was speaking of ? The fallible minded mark ? I 'd say sir you are neither of those. '' All four males got down on a knee. `` Yes king chosen, you can depend on our clans. If as you say you will go away us to our life then we will owe you a debt. '' All four nodded as did Bill then they arose and began the way back to the castle.

'' Really sir, '' the superior general started. `` You really think that Isaac Mayer Wise ? ''

'' Yes I do, I left them to live on not to die. I told them if they turned him over I would. I keep my word I feel that one 's word is more sacred than anything. '' note told an amaze full general.

'' Your word ! You are cipher ! aught but the son of a tart ... '' note 's Uncle started then found it knockout to verbalize hanging in the air with vizor 's paw around his throat. A huge smile came to Bill 's face, `` Careful Uncle Cornelius I might be tempted to wipe out you quicker if you keep this up ! ''

'' You have n't the ... '' notice 's Uncle started as banknote began to twinge harder 'til Cornelius 's heading flopped to one face.

'' Ah ! Blessed silence. '' Throwing his uncle into the transport greenback told them, `` Take this patch of garbage to a prison cell in command. ''
