Chapter 55 - Monstrous

"We all should have that right to choose our own destiny, but I don't know why it's not like that, we can't fight our destiny I guess," she said and Sunny smiled. 

'That's not true" Sunny replied. 

"It's not?" she asked. 

"In our world your highness anything is possible as long as you really want it, you fight for it, but I guess you are saying it that way because you have fought but sort of failed no matter how hard you tried" she responded. 

'That is sort of true" she said.

"I know" she replied. 

'Things don't always go the way we want, I guess sometimes you have to compromise a little except in this it's not a little" she said with a frown. 

"I get it, I hope things get better for you" Sunny replied and she smiled.

"You get some rest too, you used a lot of energy earlier," Lilith said as the girl lay back on the couch. 

'I have to keep my eyes and ear open there are a lot of protective things out here" she replied. 

'Don't worry about it I am right here" the princess said as the girl slept away on the couch. 

After everyone went to sleep Lilith went onto the deck to look at the night sky.

While looking at the stars reflecting on the water the girl started to hear weird sounds of some things coming from the trees then she saw the trees were shaking and she wiped her eyes then they stopped. 

'Seems like I am sleepy, I am seeing and hearing things now" she said to herself. 

"You should not be out here at this time," Vivian said as she came out. 

'I thought you were going to sleep" Lilith replied and the girl smiled. 

"Can't sleep?" Vivian asked. 

"I didn't try" she responded.   

"It's almost midnight, you should get some rest," Vivian said as the princess frowned. 

"You miss her don't you?" Vivian asked then the princess's eyes widened.   

"Who are you talking about exactly?" Lilith asked. 

'I am talking about Cosmo and you know that you like having the girl around" she responded. 

"She is my friend, of course, I do Vivian but she cannot be here anymore," she said and Vivian sighed then patted her on the shoulder. 

"You choose what you want, don't let anyone do it for you Lilith, I would love to see you happy and currently you are not" Vivian replied and the princess gasped as the girl hugged her. 

"You need to live your life sweetheart, I am sorry for everything I have done but I just don't trust her, all I care about is you not her," she said and the princess hugged her back. 

"I understand Vivian you have no bad intention" she replied. 

'Good I am glad that you get it now I am going back to bed, you should too" she said as Lilith looked and saw the trees shaking and she sighed.

'Yeah I am coming" she said as they heard a roar and they trembled when they saw a huge tiger made out of the earth, it rose up with the trees. 

"I am not dreaming am I?" she asked and Vivian swallowed deeply. 

'If you are then we are having the same dream, Lilith do something I didn't come here to die" she shouted and the girl's eyes started glowing as they all heard the roar and flung out of their beds then rushed to the deck. 

'What the hell is that a tree monster?" Ash asked as the ship shook and Sunny came out. 

"Not again, this is very unnecessary,"  Sunny said as she stretched off. 

"What do we do Sunny?" Lilith asked as she saw white wings flopping and down came Rex with Cosmo in his arms. 

"Cosmo, Rex" Lilith said and Cosmo got out of his arms pretending he brought her to them and she hugged Lilith.

"Glad to see you are in one piece," Cosmo said and Lith sighed. 

"Rex, can you take care of this?" Lilith asked and he smiled wickedly and the ship shook then Lilith's feet slipped and she nearly fell out of the ship but Cosmo grabbed onto her tightly. 

'Got ya" she said as the princess looked at her. 

'I have had enough of this" Lilith shouted as her entire body started glowing red, pink, and blue. 

'Oh no the mixed colors, Rex do something" Cosmo said. 

'I will take care of this" Sunny said as she coughed then Rex flew up in the air white his body glowing bright white and Lilith looked up at him. 

"You are one ugly beast" Rex said as his hand glowed and he flew to the beast then released icicles of ice from his hand which pierced through the beast and he growled at Rex as the ice took over his body causing him to freeze and eventually blew up. 

"He is monstrous too," Ash said as Rex came back smiling. 

"That I am" he replied. 

"You didn't have to kill it," Sunny said. 

"It's a beast formed from magic it can easily be recreated.. your people went a little too far when protection is concerned" Rex replied. 

'You are right" Sunny replied. 

"Why did you come back?" Lilith asked. 

'I found a lost puppy, I brought her to you.. " he responded and the princess sighed. 

'Thank you for what you did" she said and Rex patted Lilith on the shoulder. 

"I will be staying with you guys if that's okay?" he asked. 

"It's fine" the princess replied then walked away. 

"Go on..." Rex said and Cosmo went after. 

"Lilith" Cosmo called out as Lilith kept walking then the girl grabbed her by the arm and turned her around. 

"I am sorry," Cosmo said. 

"You shouldn't have come here" Lilith replied and Cosmo folded her cuffs. 

"You think I am that easy to get rid of?" she asked and the girl looked at her. 

"If you don't leave when I get back home, I will have the king take things into his hand after, I cannot protect you from him because I know he is right when you are concerned, you are lying to me about who you really are that I do know" she responded and Cosmo swallowed deeply.
