Case of the missing broom 6

With a swift motion, King Alex got up and walked up next to Prince Terry.

"Terry, take Julian with you and find Kaz.  Try to find a way to fix the broom together.  Meanwhile I'll try to entertain Argos and buy you guys some time." The King looked up towards the ceiling and called out, "Arquimitris, materialize! I will need your help."

I have now to regain a physical body. Excuse me one second...

"Yes sir, how may I be of assistance?"

"Arquimitris, you are to accompany me once Argos arrives.  I need you to have a constant update of Julian and Terry's position."

"I understand.  I shall begin now."

"Good! also, I have to make sure to stay clear of Terry and Julian while they fix the broom.  We need a form of signal for you to warn me if we are getting close." The king gave me a cat-like devilish grin, "that's why, Arquimitris; I need you to get a cold."

"Huh?...a cold?" my reply came out a little louder than what I meant it to be.

"Wait dad," the Prince interrupted, "...can machines get colds?"

King Argos sat back down on his chair.  He had just finished talking with King Alex.  After he is done with the morning reports he will head over to Diamondmoon and there is no force that can stop him from doing so! To think that someone had the nerve to steal from him! That person will pay... although, he has to admit he is having fun with this.  After all, it is a good chance to go play around with Alex.  The king of Diamondmoon obviously doesn't know what to make of Argos since the Neptunian king enjoys picking on him so much.  But, it's just that Alex is so easy to tease and it is clear as day that Alex admires his friend's beauty.  Then again, everyone admires Argos' beauty.

The King got up from his desk and looked at himself in the mirror to the right of the office's door.  It was a full-bodied mirror with a thick gold frame and precious jewels of various sizes stuck at different angles of the frame.  The big mirror had been placed there so he could check, as he did now, to make sure he looked presentable before leaving his study.  Although there was not much need to check himself.  He looked good on anything he put on or didn't put on.  In fact, he had been told it was a shame he didn't walk around naked.  He is not about to do that though.  In the back of his mind he thought it was a good thing he was the king, otherwise he might have actually been ordered to go without!

The male reflected in the mirror was gorgeous indeed.  The king wore a long-sleeved   pale lilac jacket that reached only to the upper part of his torso.  The end of the sleeves and the edges of his jacket were embroidered with gold tread and countless small jewels of different colors.  His long matching shalvar pants and unbuttoned jacket gave a generous view of his glorious body.  His pale ivory skin always had a soft pinkish glow.  His toned and muscled body  has never  been bulgy or excessive.  His shiny black hair shone hues of turquoise and lilac in the reflecting light. 

Since he was a baby, his hair has been silky and straight except for the tips that curled up defiantly.  As if that wasn't enough, the stubborn swatches of hair divided themselves into three sections at each side of his head and then merged back up on the back of his neck.  Surprisingly enough, even those unyielding, unbreakable curls were silky soft and shiny.  The king loved his peculiar hair.  He liked the way the curls defied the otherwise straight line of his hair.  That he thought, was a good thing.

The King has always been spoiled and polished to be an image of perfection.  All his subjects adored him and almost down-right venerated his beauty.  It was because of that, that everything was provided for him.  His subjects loved him too much to let him do any sort of menial job as they called it.  It is that prohibition that led his rebel soul to an obsession over cleaning.  His purplish eyes were shining with delight at the thought of his upcoming encounter with Alex.  The Supreme King was the only person who truly didn't mind about his affinity for cleaning.   That's why Alex is one of his most important friends.  However, he is not about to tell him so.  It is simply too much fun teasing him.

Once his inspection of himself was completed, King Argos stepped out of his study en route to his morning meetings.  It would be an hour before he is able to go to Diamondmoon.
