The gates

The guardians were waiting for the carriage to cross the Itaten Farm. The remaining life of the princess would help in closing the gates. This sacrifice of the princess Mala would be remembered by the king.

People would remain in the dark and kept following the false notion about the Comma of Sadness. The limited time was precious. The people were busy standing around the chamber.

Albert led Orin, and Clark toward the back of the chamber. The first and foremost attention was to stay away from the sharp eyes of the black guardians.

They resembled retainers however more human like. The distance from chamber toward the back gate was thousand feet while the people were large in numbers.

Team head could only wish that the guardians remain oblivious about the presence of the Runners. The opponent team members were also at the same place.

They were well aware that they were wanted in the city so they did not try to appear in front of the crowd. Jake was doing another task. He was noting down the various aspects happened up until now. All events were strange. He needed to go through them mentally in order to check what detail he missed again.

He could see that princess Mala was not bothering the jokes of the people. She did not blink to take a look at their funny actions. She was in Comma of Sadness. This was enough of odd. If someone was really in such comma then the funny things should work.

Jake was only junior school student. If he happened to read higher level subjects he might have understood critical point hiding behind it.

"I seemed do not need those subjects or the points. The princess is already dying. It does not matter if princess see some bloodshed before her death." Jake murmured.

As soon as he spoke those words in low tone the princess started laughing as if she heard his words clearly. People were confused but it was good that the princess was not sad anymore.

Jake received notification.

[You met the third secret.]

[Reward sent in the first stats. Collect them when you need.]

[Warning: Do hurry before the gates closes.]

Jake was short of time to think that he found third secret when actually he was clueless.

The laughing princess was looking more pitiful than her sadness. Her laugh brought blood tears in her eyes. Her life was fading and the half magic was also disappearing.

The unique chamber and the glassy ground started breaking apart. People saw this and retreated. They were shocked at the changes. The guardians were baffled because the carriage of the second king was walking through the middle junction.

The gates moved with creaking noise. Natives put their hands on their ears and started crying as if some revelation stuck their consciousness. They started crying again.

The scenario turned chaotic. The guardians were unable to do anything. They walked near the princess to see what happened to her.

Half of them ran toward the gates. The chamber was slowly digging deep in the ground.

"Hurry we should enter through the gates. The princess is dying now." Jake ran toward team head. They hurried toward the back of breaking chamber.

Albert was able to reach in the middle of the gates. There were two gates at opposite of each other. A carriage was moving toward the other gates with fastest pace. The second king heard the laughing of the princess Mala. He was sure that something happened.

It was midnight. The Itaten Farm was closing due to princess was unable to keep it open with her magic. Junan sprinted through the destroyed ground.

They were in urgency else they would have glared some of the guardians those were trying to rush toward them. They were at other side of the chamber which was fateful for the team members.

Half of them fell in the broken ground. Others were on the way toward the Itaten Farm. They could see half of the players already standing in the middle of the path.

The guardians furiously charged toward Albert and others. They attacked them. Junan and others were entering through the first gates. Jake looked at the second gate it was also closing.

"Stop the gate from closing." Jake shouted out loud as much up as his lungs could handle. Albert stopped the shining rod attack of the guardian and looked toward the second gate.

He might have fight with the enemy thinking that it was just gate, they can open it. However when he saw that it was younger kid asking to stop it; Albert threw the enemy aside and ran toward the gate. At the same time the carriage of the king entered in the Itaten Farm.

The ground shook because the chamber of the princess got destroyed. No one bothered to battle with the guardians they were secondary concerns.

Sashi and Ahram were clearing path for others by using their long range weapons. They were running madly toward the second gate. Albert was standing at the gate worried how to stop it. Then he looked at the keyhole of the big gate.

He was short of time to think anything. He thrust his spear in the keyhole and pace of the closing halted. It slowed down enough for the rest of team members to reach there.

Jake ran still he was behind others. One by one they entered the gate and saw the five team members of opponent team running to reach there too. Albert looked at the team head. Junan shook his shoulders.

Albert pulled out spear from the keyhole and it closed in next moment with force. The opponent team members were left outside and they would never be able to cross it because the princess Mala was no more alive to open it again unless King personally open it after getting rid of the curse.

Junan did not want opponent team members to cherish the fruit of their effort.
