Chapter 19: Reformed
[Maids and Butlers]: *in unison* Please, come with us, young master and mistress!
[Baku Cree and Nicolatrice Cree]: *Confused* Uhh... Where are we going?
[Maid]: You must get out of this dress, Milady!
[Nicolatrice Cree]: *Nervous* B-but I like this dress… I've had it for years...
[Butler]: Nonsense! You must get changed immediately from these commoner clothes! They are filthy with cuts and tears! Now, if the both of you would please come with us, we have lots of work to do!
*Baku is taken to one of the palaces many large and beautiful bathrooms with marble vanities and countertops. The backsplashes were made of smooth crystals that changed color with the temperature of the steam. This single bathroom was greater the size as his old home in the fields and was unlike anything Baku has ever seen before. The young teen couldn't imagine the value and cost of the amenities that were in the royal bathroom what with the golden faucets and flawlessly shining mirrors.
*The tub was huge and circular with water jets around the sides that could make it bubble and there were multiple removeable shower heads on the ceiling that could wash you from four different directions with many settings. Baku was only used to having one, and sometimes there wouldn't be any water if the crystal used was damaged or out of power, but that was more than likely to be utterly impossible within the Royal Palace.
[Butler]: Please remove your garments, young master.
[Baku Cree]: *Embarrassed* Wh-what the hell!? What do you think your playing at you old man!?
[Butler]: You must get washed up, squire! You’re filthy from the city and the fields!
[Baku Cree]: *Embarrassed* I'm not getting undressed with you in here, you pervy dumbass!
[Butler]: *Bows* I apologize, sir. What scented soap would you like?

[Baku Cree]: I don't care, just leave already! I know how to bathe myself, damn it!
*Nicolatrice is taken to a large walk-in closet. When the lights made from gems were turned on, it revealed a room that looked like it was out of a fairy tale. Beautiful glass cases and displays were lined up like a hall of fame would proudly show off trophies. Like the many bathrooms in the palace, it was also at a size larger than her old home with the addition of a second floor. She never would have imagined being around so many dresses, shoes, jewelry, wigs, make up and other accessories. It was as if Baku's mother had walked into her own personal boutique.
*Nicolatrice was never the type of person to prioritze fashion, so she certainly felt like a fish out of water. The maids could scroll through the selection of clothing by the use of a crystallic touch screen's menu as they searched and browsed the most stylish and trendy attire the people of the Royal Center were wearing at the time.
[Maid]: No, no, no! This simply won't do! We have to undergo a total makeover with you, Milady!
[Nicolatrice Cree]: *Embarrassed* O-okay?
[Maid]: This blouse is something a farmer's wife would wear! I wouldn't dare be caught dead in these!
[Maid]: And these shoes are just atrocious! It's time to get to work, ladies!
[Maid]: I'll do her hair!
[Maid]: I call makeup!
[Maid]: Let me do her nails!
[Maid]: I'll pick to her outfit!
[Nicolatrice Cree]: *Embarrassed* O-oh dear me…
*Baku exits the shower smelling fresh of mountain spring and wearing striped colored noble tights.
[Baku Cree]: *Struggling* Geez, what the hell is with this get up, it's so damn tight…!? Can't I just have my pants back!?
[Butler]: Young Master, I trust you had an excellent shower? Was the scented shampoo fitting to your liking?

[Baku Cree]: Uhh... I guess so? ... Were you... waiting for me out here this whole time?
[Butler]: Wonderful, if you would please come with me. I must now teach you how to act proper and become enabled to be amongst the other people in the Royal Center.
[Baku Cree]: *cough* What?
(Setting: Crystal Kingdom: Royal Palace- Ballroom)
(Scene: Baku meets his mother in the Crystal Palace's Ballroom)
*Baku enters the ballroom and finds his mother training with a group of maids and butlers, it was massive and had two tall flights of stairs that go up to a second floor on each side of the room, as well as giant curtains that can be opened to get an incredible view of the Royal Center’s skyline against the starry sky. It was definitely a place for rich people to get together and party at, whatever in the world that would entail. Baku couldn't be bothered to imagine it.
[Baku Cree]: Uhh... Ma? What the heck are you doin'?
[Nicolatrice Cree]: *Struggling* O-oh, g-good evening, Baku, m-my s-son-- *Thump* Oh dear…
*A couple of book falls off Nicolatrice's head.
[Maid]: Mistress Nicolatrice, please try again from the top.
[Nicolatrice Cree]: *Smiling* Hehe, okay.
[Butler]: My young lord, when you speak to members of the royal family or anyone whom lives in the Royal Center, please be sure to use proper vocabulary such as, "Madame", or "thou".
[Baku Cree]: Uhm... How about, "no".
[Butler]: But you must learn proper etiquette, my lord!
[Baku Cree]: Screw that, I'll talk however I want. Mom, what are you up to right now?
[Nicolatrice Cree]: *Smiling* The maids are teaching me how to walk down stairs with proper posture! I can't seem to keep the books on my head, but they say it's absolutely necessary for me to do. By the way, Baku, you look so cute in your little costume!
[Baku Cree]: *Sigh* Alright mom, you're done. Also, I feel like feel like a royal doofus in this crap... However, I must say, that you look rather quite elegant in your gown, I suppose... *Sarcastically* Is that good enough for you, Mr. Butler?
[Butler]: Yes, very good, my young lord…
*The Crystal King enters the ballroom.
[King Jeremiah Cree]: Ahh, here you are. So, how has your reformation into royalty been treating you two?
[Butler and Maids]: *in unison* Your majesty! *bows*
[Baku Cree]: Oh, hey there, bud. I gotta admit, my mother and I certainly weren't expecting all of this to be the kind of things that royals do. It's kinda dumb when you think about it.
[Butler]: *Shocked* Ugh! My young lord! Why must you speak this way to the king!?
[King Jeremiah Cree]: I'll admit, it can all be a bit excessive at times, especially for a family coming from the Crystal Fields. *Smiling* But I'm confident that you two will come to terms with things very soon. But I wanted to inform you, Baku, that tomorrow after you return from the High University, you will spend the weekend training and be briefed through a number of informational teachings that will fill you in on your task and mission as the World Guardian of Planet Eternia. So I want you to mentally prepare yourself for a busy weekend. That being said, I wish you both a good night. Maids, please show them to their bedroom, and be sure that everything is fit exactly to their liking.
[Maids]: *in unison* Yes, my lord!

Goblin Progenitor
Jon was finishing up another horrible date, one among many, thinking about how alone he felt now more than ever. When suddenly fate shined its bright headlights of Resurrection onto him.Lighting up a path to never feeling alone again! In a goblin horde!? As the mythical Goblin Progenitor! I would like to apologize in advance for the first few chapters - as they are not super coherent in grammar or past present tenses. I try to improve as I go, the further chapters I feel are a lot better. I will keep striving to improve the story and fix things when the chance presents itself
8 573The Gothamite
Following his parents’ brutal murder, a young man sets out to find justice against a system and city that makes decent men feel the need to turn to crime. But when a man with godlike abilities arrives, he’ll need to investigate – and possibly intervene – on behalf of humanity. THE GOTHAMITE is a BATMAN-centric sidequel to The Metropolitan Man, by Alexander Wales, though it is intended to be able to stand on its own. Content Warnings will be posted alongside new chapters, which will be published weekly on Thursdays (however, since this is just now being uploaded to Royal Road, I'll be publishing a chapter every day until it's caught up with the other places it's hosted. For now, enjoy the first two chapters and the first of the Origin Stories).
