Heading News [Andreea]

[Levinsky Eisenburg]

Queen Andreea.. Levinsky's brow knit together as he scratched the side of his cheek nervously. He was in uniform, out of the sweltering heat. He took off his cap, letting his slightly curly blonde hair out. The officer pressed the palm of his hand under his hair, rubbing the back of his neck tentatively as he scowled slowly. "Queen Andreea.." He said breathily, feeling a bit nervous now as he strode towards the throne room.

How should he go about reporting news?
How would she take an ordinary soldier instead of the head of the troop? Would she take him seriously at all?

He made a small tsk'ing noise and stopped at the entrance to her chamber. He wasn't even supposed to be here, was he? The captain of the squad had some issue to work out.. So being the second eldest member of the company, it was only natural for Levinsky to step in.
Slowly, he rapped his knuckles against the ornate steel-work, waiting for the doors to open. They opened slowly, creaking softly as a small crack of light seemed to fall upon his face.

Levinsky walked to the center of the room, tilting his head to the side almost nervously as he stood by himself before the queen. Almost clumsily, he knelt down, just remembering that he had to be respectful for a person of such power.. Meeting the symbol of the kingdom really makes a man go pale. "Y-your holiness." He said softly.

[Queen Andreea]

She stands gazing out the window. It's edges are surrounded by the tendrils of a rose bush growing like ivy around the windows edges. A black steel design is in the glass like a protective yet beautiful gate. The room is flooded with sunlight as the clear sky shines though, turning the room a light shade of red as it reflects off the roses before the queen. Her face is solom of expression and eye tell of a sad loneliness. Her golden hair is pulled back on the top but the rest lays on her chest. A quill pen occupies her hands, a long and beautiful red dress covers her small body.

She turns from the window to see a handsom young man enter tentitivly in her presense. He somewhat ungracefully stumbles to a kneel before her. For the first time in awhile she laughs very lightly and smiles, "Rise. You may speak. What have you come for?"

[Levinsky Eisenburg]

He rose slowly, keeping his eyes averted from her as he began to speak. His fingers tightened around the brim of his head. "A-ah.. I came to report news of our regiment's patrol around Ardhana.." At first, it sounded as if he was going to ramble, since he seemed to quail under her watchful eye. "We've been experiencing small thefts and some citizens gave us tips concerning a possibility of infiltration.." Levinsky fell silent then, trailing off into silence as his attention was distracted.

He raised his hand up, using it to brush a lock of hair that swept over his eyes as he continued. "...Of opposing soldiers.. Aside from that.." He flicked his gaze over to her, still a bit un-nerved by her almost divine prescence. His emerald gaze fell to the floor again, his final words were almost gruff in tone. "N-nothing much has happened, your holiness."

[Queen Andreea]

Andreea smiled as he studdered because of her presense. She spoke gently to the nervous soldier. "I'm glad our citizen are helping our soldiers... It warms my heart to hear that. But you say there might be possible infiltration? I fear the other countries are becoming more restless as I feared...." She trailed off, thinking about what to do now. "Please tell your head captian to scedule a few more patrols. And if you do find the tresspassers, don't attack, but to use my flock of Chatots and find out what they are planning. I want a report about it should you do indeed find them, which I'm sure you will."

Andreea walked over to a small table and picked up two small plates, each with a cup of cool tea, and offered one to the nervous soldier. "Please, take it, I'm sure your thirsty on this hot day with that uniform on. What is your name soldier? I'm curious to know." She smiled with such innocence at him, he was so nervous but Andreea could she the kindness in him. She always can in those around her.

[Levinsky Eisenburg]

He fidgeted nervously, bringing his hat up over his head as he slowly lowered the rim of it. It made him feel bad to see that his report had worried the queen. So he tried to brighten up her mood with a small show of bravado. "I-it'd be alright though, your majesty.. The Royal Army will do it's uptmost best to ensure safety for you and the rest of Ardhana."
Levinsky stood to attention, throwing her a sharp salute quickly despite his nervous state. "Understood. I'll write up a report should we find them. And for good measure, I'll return to offer a second bri-" He trailed off again, his arm falling loosely at his side. "My appologies. I was getting ahead of myself again.."

He blinked, looking a bit taken aback at being offered tea, most of all, by the queen no less! How should he respond? Should he take it? But wait.. Won't this be a bit strange? Someone of his ranking accepting something like this from his queen? But if he refuses it.. Wouldn't this be considered rude?
Grudgingly, he reached over and lifted up the small cup, placing the bottom of it gently onto the palm of his hand. "Thank you, your majesty.. I'm sorry for troubling you so.." He raised the cup up, sipping it once before lowering it again. "My name is Levinsky Eisenberg. A soldier of the Royal Army, Second Division."

[Queen Andreea]

The Queen smiled at the nervous soldier before her, so earnest and charming. "I know you'll do your best for this kingdom Levinsky." She sipped her tea a few times before approaching him and placed a hand lightly on his shoulder. "You have not troubled me, please don't think that doing your job and protecting our kingdom in at all upsetting to me. Please relax in that reguard dear Levinsky. I am actually quite pleased with your work." The smiled at him and then made her way to the window. Suddenly Tokey burst from her ball and flew excitedly around the room. Then, as if just noticing Levinsky, flew up to him and dusted the soldier with Joy dust.

[Levinsky Eisenburg]

"Thank you for the support your majesty. The division and I will not fail you." Levinsky responded, leaving his tea untouched for the most part. Don't think that protecting the kingdom troubles her, huh? Would she continue to say that if he continued to fail? He felt a pang of guilt at this - staring at the tea. After a pause of silence, he set the small cup down awkwardly, feeling that the fine porcelain looked out of place against his personage. As the glass touched the smooth table with a clink, the queen yet again praised him for a deed he had only played a small part in. "Thank you once more.." He mumbled under his breath, pulling his cap over his eyes.

A small beam of light emmited from a pokeball by the queen. Levinsky shielded his eyes by raising his arm up to block the light out. Something like sand was sprinkled on his head. He pulled his cap off crossly and dusted it off. "Is he yours, your majesty?"
