Chapter 317 - The Queen (2)

As she landed on a soft carved path she looked around in total awe. She was enchanted by the beauty around her but before she could have a good look at it, her mother whispered in her ear "You can have a look at this place later because everyone is waiting for you. It's been years since this day has come and now that it is here no one can wait to welcome you."

Rachel was confused and she asked "Mom can you please tell me everything clearly, I am really confused."

Jamie nodded and said pointing towards a well craved path "Just a few more minutes and you will know everything just move straight in this direction." 

Rachel took a few steps ahead and with every step she took, she was surprised as this was the a place that had just come out of a book of fairy tale. She was so excited that she could hardly contain it inside her but the way her mother and Jessica were always walking behind her, she felt like she had some high position here so she just kept her cool while she walked majestically. 

She didn't know what happened to her but the more steps she took, the more she felt like she owned this place and the more her aura changed. They came to a halt near a castle and if it could, it charmed Rachel even more. It was a beautiful white coloured huge castle with different designs on it and on the front door was a huge picture of a lion. The top of the castle looked like a rainbow as it had different colors on top of it in the order of a rainbow. Jamie asked her to place her hand on the head of the loin and to her surprise it moved taking her by surprise and a smile appeared on her lips.

She entered the door and soon she came to stand in front of a carpet to reach a majestic throne in front which was placed at a height and in front of it were 5 steps. Rachel halted in her steps and looked at the beautiful and royal throne in front of her, it was simply breathtaking. 

The throne was white in color at the bottom with rainbow color designs on the top. At the back of it was carved a picture of a lion and the ends of the armrest had that too but the color of these lions were white while with the background of the rainbow. Her gaze then swept beyond the throne and it showed the majestic aura of the place, she felt her body fill with some kind of energy. Finally her gaze swept to the sides and there were many people sitting on one knee with their heads bowed in a line until the throne. Rachel was taken by surprise and looked at her mother "Can you tell me anything now?"

Before Jamie could say anything, Rachel was startled by the sounds of all the people bowing there heads as they spoke "Welcome, my Queen"

Rachel's eyes widened and she was yet to recover from her shock when her mother said "You will know everything after you sit on the throne."

She took in a deep breath and walked towards the throne while Jessica and Jamie quietly followed behind her. 

As she sat on the throne both her mother and best friend bowed down in front of her, she could not take it and immediately stood up saying to her them in a low tone "What are you doing?"

Jamie smiled in her heart at how sweet her daughter was but then here she was inferior to her so she said "It is at your order we raise, Your Highness."

Before she could give the order Jessica spoke "You have to be seated before that, Your Highness."

She sat down but suddenly started feeling uneasy at whatever was happening, she didn't ever want this and it was making her feel uncomfortable. So many people bowing in front of her and her mother and best friend treating her like she was above them was unacceptable but as she sat down something inside her made her feel differently and she said in a commanding tone "Raise"

Everyone stood up and then beautiful chairs appeared behind everyone but none of them sat until another command was heard "Sit"

Naturally Jessica and Jamie having a close relationship to her had a special position and were seated on the chairs placed on the second step to the throne. The steps were huge and spacious that they could contain a lot of chairs so it was comfortable.

As everyone was seated Rachel placed her arms on the armrest and creased the heads of the lions. Those two figures moved and let out a loud roar but the more surprising thing was that Rachel understood what that meant although she was shocked she obeyed them and closed her eyes. As soon as she did that the rainbow colors at the top of the throne made a cover over her head and as soon as a light was emitted from it, the tail of the loin on the back of the chair was wrapped around her waist and soon she was taken into the memories she had initially come to see. 

With the throne finally responding to her touch everyone was beaming with joy because it was after 10 years that the new queen had been born so they had lived 30 years without a queen. All the witches were becoming weak and powerless with every year that passed without the queen. They had to hide from their enemies and they were becoming stronger.

Rachel's mind started flushing with images of this place. It started from when this place was built and then with the thoughts and working of every queen. When the queen died she was first placed on this throne so that her memories could be taken in by it and passed on to the next queen. 

Finally the images of the previous queen started and it showed how she too like the others was born from the queen before her, Rachel was a little confused at this as her mother was not a queen but she kept watching. 

It was then that the the scene of her death came, all the queens had died after many years of living and of course their age was a lot more than humans but this queen died at a normal human beings life span but the worst part being, it was while fighting for the good. 

It was night time and all the witches and wizards had decided to go to sleep when they were attacked by the enemies and this time all the enemies had joined forces. This was the perfect time to attack because at this point the queen was pregnant and weak and if she died there would be no successor to her throne. These people had joined into one because they all wanted power and though each of them wanted it for themselves they knew until the witch queen was alive they could never stand a chance to spread evil.

The queen was caught off guard too but she still had a lot of power in her and she could never let the evil rise. Their target was just the queen but back then all the other witches were strong enough too so they never had a chance to reach the queen in first place. Slowly all of them started getting defeated and in this dire situation the queen called in some of her most trusted witches and bestowed a power on them that they could give birth to a queen if they had pure intentions. She wanted a queen to be there and she knew that these witches were prone to get greedy and control the throne through their children and as this had never happened before because the pure bloodline had continued so she added the requirement of the mother's pure intention. The other condition was that if she could not make it out of the situation but she didn't say that out loud. 

All the witches were happy at this and they had the thought to find a husband as soon as possible and have a child because once the queen was born on other will have the chance. Witches were allowed to live normal lives and have a human as a partner too but they had to be there for their world and work whenever required. 

The queen went ahead to fight and even though she was pregnant, she was formidable as no one stood a chance against her and soon all the enemies were killed with the help of other witches. 

She then called a huge white lion this was the pet that had served all the queens and only followed the orders of a queen. It protected the queen whenever she needed but in this fight the queen didn't need anyone, she told the lion to clear up the mess created by the fight.

Rachel wondered that how could such a queen have been killed that could fight so many evil people even in her weakest state. She then wondered how strong a queen could be in her powerful state and soon all her questions were answered.
