7 Stronger
"Your father is Arthur Kingston." It didn't register at first what she was saying, so for a minute, or maybe three, we were just staring at each other. Then it sunk in.
"Holy shit!" I exclaimed, earning a glare from my grandmother. I usually didn't swear in front of her, but I think it was the right occasion. Then it struck. Rose Kingston and Arthur Kingston was married. Their baby girl died in a fire. Oh my heavenly soul. I sat down on the nearest chair. Rose Kingston is my mom, which means Arthur Kingston is my dad, which means...
"I'm supposed to be dead." I heard a chuckle coming from my grandmother.
"No, you are very much alive, Snow." I whipped my head up.
"So that baby, that everyone thinks is dead, isn't, because she is me and I am she." My grandmother nodded.
"How are you so calm about this!" I asked, eyeing her incredulously. My breath was raging. It felt like I ran a mile.
"Because I've known it for years. I'm used to the fact that you are the daughter of two legends." She answered simply. I gaped at her.
"I don't know what to say." I wiped my hands over my hair, trying to come to terms with what I learned today.
"You don't have to say anything, but it's getting late and I think you should sleep on this information and when you are ready, we can talk."
"Wait, what about my powers, everyone saw it. They'll be asking question won't they?" My grandmother looked thoughtful and then she answered:
"You will develop more powers, just like your father. If it's going to be the same or different, only time will tell. But we kept you hidden for a reason, so that you will train to become stronger and not be hunted by those foul beasts. So I suggest telling the story everybody knows, you are orphaned but one of your parents must had royal blood running through their veins. And when the time is right, you can reveal yourself, but not yet." I nodded. This made sense. I had to become stronger before I reveal myself to the world. My life just became a whole lot more complicated.
"This demon guy, leader, thing or whatever, does he have a name?" Again it took my grandmother a minute to respond.
"Yes, I would think so. I think he goes by the name Rafiel." I nodded. Rafiel. The guy who ripped my parents away from me and who took them away from their baby. Me, who they loved very much. I will make him pay. He is also the reason why Yuan lost her parents

Grandmother and I talked late into the evening, so when I got back it was already midnight.
We had our own building close to the palace, it was big, but not as big as the palace, we each had our own rooms, which two can sleep in, it was not as fancy as a modern bedroom, but it was simple and nice.
The two beds is on the left side against the wall and on the far wall is a big enough window, opposite the two beds was our wardrobe. Next to the beds was a door that leads to the bathroom, it is spacios with a shower and a bath.
My best friend, Yuna, and I am sleeping in this room, the rest of our friends, divided into two, was sleeping on either sides of us in other rooms. The troops slept in the upper area on floor 2, while the training area was next to the building, but was connected to the first floor where the kitchen and the dining hall was.
I undressed and took a long bath, I almost fell a sleep and decided to get out before I actually do.
I got dressed and climbed into bed. That's when I started thinking, that if I was to obtain this "power of kings" I would have to get stronger, because like grandmother said, if I was to weak, the power will over come me, and I would die.
The last thought running through my head before I fell a sleep was, that I would train hard every day, become the best warrior just like my mother, and I will defeat these demons and bring justice to my parents, that was my new goal!
