  It was agreed by the military leaders that this alleged War was an excellent exercise for the Soldiers and Prince Robert and Princess Alice.

  The Prince with his wingsuit was dropped, by plane, from 15,000 thousand feet with his newly designed drafting mat which let him draft around the Castle for five hours. Robert sends Alice a constants stream of information as he drafted around the Castle sending Alice pictures on what going on the ground, he circled around and until she ordered him to stop, because he was not needed.

  The Princess in her black military uniform with General stars was busy inputting the information that she received from Robert and ordering troop movements when out of nowhere said Robert you’re a pig.

  The Princess receive an excellence map of the immediate (5 miles) around the Castle which she transferred to the computer system. Before Prince Bobby’s troops showed up all of the residences within 10 miles including pets were taken to the Castle for protection, where they found hot meals and a bed. The Princess was walking around talking and meeting the people.

  King John called for a war meeting; he started the meeting by advising that Prince Bobby already had some troopers hidden in the nearby woods. Princess Alice was asked to update the battle plan she said Prince Robert had sent her a map of the battlefield, which has been installed into our computer system. He and other Soldiers will continue to send in pictures of troop movement. I will dispatch Soldiers to disarm them.

  A Soldier’s General announced Bobby’s army was made up of twenty thousand troopers and about 5,000 Hunters hiding in the caverns below the Castle. The Soldier sprayed sleeping gas from their mats onto the mass of tropes.

  Back to the beginning, the man got off his horse and demanded that Queen Elizabeth and King John surrender their Castle, and their army or he would destroy and savage their kingdom also Princess Alice is banned from the family, and only him (Bobby) is heir to the throne.

  The Soldier said, give me a minute I’m trying to write this stuff down. He continued to let me hold your white flag; the General is coming out to talk to you.

  The Castle gates opened and out walked Princess Alice in a military uniform, she said Bobby you’re an idiot. The Soldiers who you can’t see stupid have dismantled your forces with sleeping gas. Robert who is in the air right now is waiting for me to call him down and hang you in front of your men. Mommy told me not to hurt you. I think I may hold him back this time. But don’t ever come back with an army again. We have collected your neat looking swords and ancient weapons. Now get off my fucking horse, mommy gave it to me.

  Well, the first battle or war was over, and the winners went to get married. Queen Sandra the 4th settled for twenty miles dollars from her son Bobby and his family which she gave to Princess Alice for the kid sake. Bobby’s army now belonged to Robert. Bobby is presently working as a bus-boy at The Diner.

  Chapter Thirty-Six

  Two thousand people could fit into the Castel’s Cathedral, its Steward and his staff have been preparing for these upcoming marriages for a few years. There are twenty restaurants and one hundred bars opened in the renovated Castle. Over two thousand rooms are waiting. The stewards had tripled the shared kitchen, and domestic staffs Provisions for the three thousand guests have been ordered, delivered and stocked.

  Robert and Alice arrived home (Mother’s Castel) at daybreak, with their pickup and RV full of animals and people. The Servants knew they were getting coming because the Soldiers told them.

  Robert and Alice were sleeping in the RV with all the pets when they arrived. Alice didn’t take time to dress because she was so excited.

  Alice was home. She got out of the RV pulling Robert with her. The sun was coming up, and the view was like one stepped into a fairy story. My ‘God’ she yelled I couldn’t see the top of my home.

  The Reporter and Sally were staring at the moat and the many Castle’s huge towers wondering where they were?

  In a manner of minutes, the travelers, including the pets entered the massive structure. The polished marble floor became a sliding playground for ‘Nit and wit,’ the goat, one rabbit, and Princess Alice.

  After two good slides, Robert grabbed Alice as she went by picking her up with one arm under her knees and the other on her back and whispered that she looked delicious. Alice had only had a short nighty on and needed a robe.

  Robert glanced over at the servants there were at least twenty people staring at him. He mouthed the word robe, and two took off in a flash.

  The first problem was a giant mountain lion walking around smelling everyone. Robert talked to her, and she sat down next to him. There was also a sweet little goat that wouldn’t stop crying. Alice picked it up and gave it to an elderly maid.

  A dog that looked familiar walked to a sofa jumped up on it and fell asleep.

  Alice gave ‘Nit and Wit’ the rabbit. Where is my mom’s bedroom Alice asked? One young maid said the second floor and then right, but my Princess do you want me to get a robe for you?

  The staff was ready. Although the Princess’s assemblage was different, they handled it as easy as pie. In minutes, the traveler

  We were eating a hot breakfast as their luggage was being set up in their rooms.

  Alice still in her nightgown found her mother’s bedroom and jumped on her. Alice asked for a tour of the dungeons so she could pick one out for Gloria.

  The Queen got out of bed hugged the bride and laughed at her outfit as she put robes on both and joined their friends for Breakfast.

  The Castle looked like a typical Hollywood creation, with towers, moats, a banquet hall, perfect lawns, Knights, and soldiers with spears. The Castle with its three thousand apartments and offices were catered by Freddy and the Brooklyn businesses.

  They added titanium covering to the Castle’s exterior. An automatic anti-missile defense system was installed for more protection. One hundred Soldiers operated this system.

  Under Ms. Smith’s direction, the Princess’s RV and pickup were removed from sight.

  The Stewart separated the Grooms and Brides by putting them into different towers.

  The Reporter and Sally loved their new apartment and offices. It was giving to them for life because the Reporter will be directing the Queens’ financials.

  The Castle staff couldn’t wait to meet their Prince and Princess. When Queen Sandra returned from Brooklyn, she would gather the servants and her children and tell them stories about Alice and Robert and the Brooklyn family, including the Aunts and Uncles.

  They always want to hear the story about the fight in front of the ‘Butcher Shop’ where the Princess held the Prince’s dying body in her arms, also, how you could still hear the scream from the Bucher shop’s window.

  They loved the stories about the Princess’ blind students, especially Ginger’s dreams. The Queen told them the Princess’ students (with their families) are invited, with all expenses paid to the weddings.

  When Joeann and her Mother, Tracy arrived at the Castle the servants couldn’t wait to ask her a thousand questions.

  Tracy told them stories of Alice being the gang leader and how she held on to Robert’s nightshirt (At night) and cooed all the time when she was a baby.

  They continued how Robert followed her around all day as her knight.

  Alice wanted Robert (Her enforced) to cut off everyone’s head. Tracy told them the story of Charlie Chan and how they saved everyone’s lives.

  It was the marriage of the Century between Prince Robert and Princess Alice the 2nd. Alice couldn’t stop jumping up and down. Her future Mother-in-law, Elizabeth tried to calm her down.

  They scheduled the Royal marriages to surround, not to engulf the Prince and Princess wedding. Alice (Future Queen of all Queens) has demanded that her siblings and childhood friends can exchange their Wedding Vows at her ceremony (now it was their ceremony).

  Alice’s wedding dress was
beautiful. So were the other bride’s dresses. She wanted equal standing right now for everyone. Alice believed it wasn’t the time to rule it was the time to wait. Also, she tried to stop any pending jealousies between her and anyone else.

  All the Grooms had already graduated from the Soldier’s training it made them officers in Robert’s Army. Therefore, the grooms wore Army Dress Uniforms for their ‘Weddings.’

  Alice had requested the Brides come over for a sleepover: add a few bottles of wine, some prosciutto sandwiches, hair dryers, nail polish, curlers, chips, and gossip, and in a few hours, they were all the best of friends.

  Gloria was the life of the party besides chewing gum and using a thick Brooklyn accent to kid with the guests. She dragged Alice’s sisters over to her one by one. Gloria said things like Ms. Plain-looking Princess; this is your sister Jane; her; future husband is to die for, yours is boring.

  Alice stood up and hugged Jane and, in a few minutes, her two other sisters Dorothy and Felicia.

  Alice told them the most important thing is to take care of her siblings and their children.

  Ladies to show our appreciation, Robert and I have put together a gift basket for you. Gloria handed each woman a beautiful wrapper box. In the box was Estee Lauder cosmetic products with a notice saying you will receive a similar gift each year for the next ten years. Also, a bottle of perfume, and a diamond bracelet engraved with ‘Love from Prince Robert & Princess Alice.’

  A pretty, bright looking teenager sat next to Alice and kissed her. She said my name is Terry. I didn’t know you were blind. Yet you move around and talk like a Queen. I also understand you’re a doctor? My God that’s fantastic.

  Thank you, Terry, said, Alice tell me about yourself.

  My Princess, I come from a small family we are famous for our wool, which we sell through Italy. It’s a planned marriage, and I know nothing about him. I met him once, and I was too shy even to look at him, much less talk to him. Our families must combine to survive.

  Alice got mad I will tell Robert to check him out. I know your Mother she played with me when I was a baby.

  Gloria, ladies, let me show you parts of the Friday Night Fights and see if you can identify any of the women?

  The ladies pulled chairs up in front of a screen. Joeann set up a projector. Gloria helped Alice to a chair and gave her a glass of wine. Terry quick come next to me, said Alice and you can tell me what is going on.

  Alice had listened to the women talking, and no one spoke to Terry. She sent a message to Robert to get back to her about Terry’s fiancé.

  “Gloria started the movie with a short introduction; this is a short film taken from the longer film the famous ‘Friday Night Fights.’ It contains only the scenes where Alice’s three girlfriends are in. Gloria continued, I played Robert’s first lover, while Sarah and Joanne played sluts.”

  Alice laughed, and the two sluts bowed.

  The brides love it.

  “Sarah said girls remember, over a billion people have watched the ‘Friday Night Fights.’ There is one scene in the movie that will haunt Joeann, Gloria, and myself forever. The projector started with three young braless girls.”

  The ladies “shrieked with glee.”

  Joeann said, “but Robert paid us five thousand dollars each to do it.”

  “The girls howled again.”

  The film started again; everyone could see The Princess walking around the ‘Fighting Ring,’ in a short black cocktail dress. Every time she took a step the band would make a drum sound, and Alice would swing her rear with the drumbeat.

  Terry told Alice what was happening in the film and the part she (Alice) played.

  Everyone was gawking at Alice who was laughing so hard; Terry must take care Alice didn’t fall out of her chair. Alice remembered the fights and her part she played and then listening to the announcers, cracked her up.

  Each of the brides got up and were dancing around with their bottom-ends swinging to the drumbeat.

  Someone yells there is Joeann; Terry asked how a small girl like you can carry some many beers on one tray?

  Another young girl added, Joeann, you look hot.

  The girls became so excited by the film a giant pillow fight commenced. Then everyone held hands and vowed never to mention the girl’s acting skills in the ‘Friday Night Fights.’

  The night ended when Alice had a caller arrived.

  She took off her darken sunglasses, and her eyes now had a bright green glimmer.

  “Someone yelled look at that giant hulk climbing the castle’s walls. Someone said should we call the castle guard he seems to be headed this way?”

  “No, Gloria said it’s Robert, and he seems to be carrying someone.”

  “You mean Alice’s Robert one of the girls asked.”

  Her three companions said” yes.”

  Alice said, “he is carrying Terry’s prospective spouse.”

  Robert entered thru the balcony and put the fellow on the couch. He quickly picked up each bride and kissed them. Robert picked a giggling Princess up as she weights as much as a coaster and planted an intense kiss on her eager lips.

  After the Prince kissed his Princess, he let in Ms. Smith who had a collection of Gowns for the girls to wear at the Royal Court.

  Alice told Terry to take your prearranged husband for a stroll and figure out if you want to marry him or not.

  Meanwhile, Robert already had a two-day stag party for the Grooms. After a few verbal and physical attacks between the boys, they got to know each other and became friends. After the party was over, each of the men vowed to fight next to Robert, who impressed them to no end.

  Robert’s ambitions were eye-opening to the men. Such as analyses of the family’s businesses, installing inventory controls, combining certain companies that competed. These and his other ideas amazed the group.

  It took two days for the girls to get fitted for their ‘Wedding’ dresses; two days to prepare for the ceremony, and a half day to study the Royal Court’s etiquette demands. Now the ‘Big Day’ has arrived.

  Chapter Thirty-Seven

  The Weddings

  It took time for the wedding parties, made up of priests, brides, grooms, best-men, maids of honor, ring bearers to set up across from each other. The Queens and Kings were standing next, to the Throne. Grandmothers Marie and Martha ensured that everybody was in the correct place.

  Martha met Alice’s sisters, and brothers she picked each one of them up and hugged them. Queen Sandra asked Martha to take care of the three little ones.

  The three knew who she was and couldn’t wait to see the Sergeant and Maria.

  There had to be one hundred thousand people outside the Church, waiting for the bells so they could run amok.

  Alice was carrying Ginger. The two maids ‘Nit and Wit’ were holding up Alice’s wedding gown with grins on their faces, as they stumbled occasionally.

  Robert looked mighty in his Service uniform, with a giant sword, long boots, and many decorations. His height was unnerving. But Maria stole the show, leashed to Robert, she had to stop occasionally, to roar. No one objected to Robert. The crowds on hand and the billion TV viewers knew, right then, that Robert and Alice will be their next rulers.

  The Kings, Queens, were standing around the Throne, with their priests waiting for the brides and grooms. The brides arrived, and it was Martha job to confirm the right bride, ring bearer, and a priest stood next to the proper bridegroom.

  The various ceremonies which were performed at the same time caused complete chaos. No one could understand anything the audience heard comments like: what did he say, are we married, that was quick, I require a brew?

  Aunts Joan and Mary, Both Grandmothers, (Marie and Lily) had their hands full dragging the youngsters, including Ginger off Alice. No one cried. The kids just love to be near her.

&nb
sp; Alice put her arms around her new husband and declared ‘I Love You.’

  The King of Kings remembered the first time his child wore a white gown when she got off a train in Brooklyn during a banquet, and her dress needed an adjustment at the age of two.

  There wasn’t a dry eye in the parent’s box seats. The bells clanged and the crowds when nuts. Bonfires were set all over the World celebrating Prince Robert and Princess Alice’ marriage.

  Chapter Thirty-Eight

  The wedding parties went on to a spacious courtyard to celebrate the marriages. A series of famous bands played to everybody’s tempo. Gourmet food sites and open bars started the reception off with a roar.

  Alice poked Robert and instructed him to look. She was pointing at the sky. After Robert realized what she was looking at, he ordered the wedding guest to run because there was something mysterious about to touch down on them.

  A rainbow was falling from the sky. The shocked looks on the crowds’ faces were comical.

  The rainbow landed next to a bar and didn’t move.

  Queen Sandra said it’s the ‘Gods.’ As the highest ranking Noble of the known Universe, she entered the rainbow. The Queen returned almost immediately and rounded up all the Kings and Queens. She declared the Gods are here; they want to wed Prince Robert and Princess Alice and make them members of their Royal Court. I replied undoubtedly go ahead.

  There was another situation; the wedding guests paused in their tracks while watching a formation of twenty-five thousand Soldiers in full ceremonial dress arriving to celebrate their Prince and Princess.

  The King of Kings saw the Soldiers and took a stride backward. Well, we now know who will lead the earth in twenty years.

  Robert asked Ms. Bride if she knew who was in the weather phenomenon?

  No answer.

  A Chapel replaced the Rainbow, Alice saw three Gods behind an altar. Besides Robert, no one else could see them, not even the Soldiers.

  Then Alice put her veil down, she pulled Robert next to her and urged him to kneel.
