| Kingpole, I know you are trying to be humorous, but I feel that you are mocking my story, and actually a distraction from what I am trying to write. I didn't make fun of your character in this story, so please lighten up. JP

| Prince Robert entered the room and the Knights stood. Prince Robert said, "Please Sir Knights, I am a prince, in name only. I will soon be training under your guidance and will be only one of many, that will be under your command.
Please be seated as, until the time I become a Knight, you are my superiors."
Sir Sonic spoke and said, "You shall be a great Knight Robert and I would be honored to teach you myself." Sir Robert said, "Thank you Sir Sonic Celt. I have recounted the battle at the landing field of last evening, to my Father. He said he now regrets that he put my life in such danger, but said that he will thank you in person in just a short while." Robert continued, "If you Sir's would follow me for just a few minutes I will show you the remainder of the training arena."
He led the way down the corridor to a barracks area and a large room that doubled as a dining room and class room. The rooms of the barracks were filled with young men engaged in various forms of activity or just lounging on their bunks. They saw racks of armor lining the walls. They went out a side door into the vast arena and saw many stables full of horses, a blacksmith shop and many groomers and stable hands. There was a jousting wall in the middle and many pit areas for fighting hand to hand. Sir Robert said, "Please return to your quarters now and prepare yourselves for breakfast in about 30 minutes. I will send one of the attendants to bring you when it's time."
Sir JonPop knocked on Sir Studs door and said, "Hey Studly, you about through? The king wants us at breakfast in just a few minutes."
The door opened and Sir Studs girl came out with a very large smile on her red face, she gleamed with perspiration on her forehead and her hair was soaking wet. She gave a little giggle and ran off down the corridor, leaving the door open. Sir Stud was bent over, sitting on the edge of the bed, breathing hard like he had just finished a jousting match. He said, "Wheew Sir JonPop, these girls are way better than the ones we have back home, any day. She wouldn't stop and just wore may ass out. Dang, I must be gettin old. Three times bout killed my ass."

It's like getting to read a story by Stephen King and being able to comment on his characters -- some you hate, some you love.  |

| Yeah, I probably over reacted a bit. No disrespect meant King.

| Kingpole, buddy, you post whatever you want.
I'll slow the writing pace a bit so there is more time to post comments. JP

| In the great dining hall, King Robert had an area just for the Knights from Earth. It was elevated about 3 feet higher than the long table that was full of future Knights to be trained.
When the girl led them into the hall, the young men at the long table stood at attention. The knights, quite taken by this show of respect, took their indicated seats and gazed down at the young men, still standing.
King Robert said, "Please gentlemen, be seated.
We will all eat our breakfast while it still hot and then there will be the introductions and questions."
After the very hearty breakfast was over, the King once again stood and said, "Gentlemen, may I have your attention, please?" The low murmur that had been present all during the breakfast, stopped and all eyes focused on King Robert.
He said, "As you all know, these brave Knights are from another world and a time eons before our own.
I will now introduce them." As the Knights were introduced, one by one, they received thunderous applause. King Robert said, "Now my good Knights, I will answer any questions you may have."
Sir JonPop had been appointed as the speaker of the group, stood and said, "We have many things that are puzzling to us, your Highness. How is it that you all speak perfect English, have you studied our language? The King said with a hearty laugh, "Not at all, Sir JonPop. You are speaking and hearing our language that all people of the Planet Nib, speak." Sir JonPop, looking quite puzzled said, "And how is this so, King Robert?" The King said, "This is because, when you traveled the far distance from your world, to ours, you were placed in hyper sleep. Our language was taught to you while you were asleep."
"It is so natural to you now, it's as if it were your own."
Sir JonPop asked, "When we return home, will we still speak this language? How will we be understood?" King Robert laughed again with his jolly laugh and said, "No, as soon as you hear someone on your world speak, you will revert to your natural language, but you will always be able to speak, Nibbonese." (Ha-so hee)
