Everett King slowly opened his eyes and was greeted with a familiar sight, as he slowly got up he made sure that he wasn't tripping as he made his way through the Apple seed-filled room when he arrived at his closet he knew what will await him as he slowly opens it to only be hit with a flood of more apple seeds making him frown a bit after he put on his clothes he started to move to the bathroom which was quite the challenge regarding the current state of his bedroom, upon arriving in his bathroom he gets himself ready when he noticed something wrong with his toothpaste because when he pressed on the tube instead of toothpaste apple seeds came out King looking with a face of someone who is done he screamed from the top of his lungs: “WHY IS THIS ONLY HAPPENING TO ME!!” after that he just threw the toothpaste and toothbrush into the sink and headed out, King finally had enough of those seeds he has to get rid of them but how? He thought about it for some time until it hit him: “It's so simple why did I never thought of this” he said while rushing out of his house and getting into his car he was not really paying attention to where he was driving. When he arrived at his destination a simple gardening store he quickly ran inside and grabbed himself a Shovel paid for it and as fast as he entered left the store, with new-found enthusiasm he quickly drove home and started to search what was he searching for? All the Apple seeds he could find inside and around his house be it a cabinet, closet, everything that had a chance of having seeds he looked through it, after hours of searching he got every seed left in his house and took them to his backyard where he just shoveled an extremely huge hole it was concerning to see him so powered up. When he finally after many exhausting hours finished the hole he took the seeds and just dumped them all inside the hole and closed the hole afterward feeling a sigh of relief he heads towards the bed and just falls asleep but what was about to happen next was something no one could foresee. BEEP BEEP BEEP the sound of an alarm clock filled the room as Everett deactivated his Alarm and noticed something was different very different his room was not covered in apple seeds but also the room seemed bigger than usual and has a reddish wallpaper instead of the plain blue wallpaper his bedroom usually had also he could swear to smell the scent of apples filling the atmosphere “Okay this is happening now” he thought to himself upon heading towards his closet which also wasn't filled to the brim with apple seeds which took him quite by surprise “Did this really work if it did why does my house smell so strong like apples?” after getting clothed, eating breakfast and brushing his teeth King got out and saw what has happened: “What is the name of the…” He thought to himself as he saw the Gigantic 5 stories tall apple that stood where the house should have stranded “I should Inform the Foundation about this!” but as soon as he went to call he noticed something in the Mailbox it seemed to contain a letter, so he put his phone away and took the letter and started reading:
“Son if you are reading this, this means you have planted my presents for you,” he looked towards the giant apple “And if you did I want to warn you about what will be happening from now on, in the next days you will get a Visit from a Woman of another Dimension she is known as the Princess of the Lemons, and she will visit you to discuss different things regarding you and your new role as King of apples.” “King of Apples what is this Old man Talking about?” he asked continuing to read “I hope you will use this and step into my place

Sincerely, Rome King.
Ps: Don't you dare inform the Foundation about this!”

“I mean it seems like no one noticed it, so I should be good” he slowly made his way towards his car and started to drive towards his workplace The SCP Foundation upon arriving he slowly made his way towards his office greeting everyone who he came across when he arrived he started to look through his mail to see if anything has happened when he wasn't at work yesterday that was until he heard a knock on his office door he turned towards the door and saw no one else than his college Alto Clef leaning on the side of the Door “Where were you I was really hoping on seeing you did your car got jammed with Apple seeds again?” after saying this Clef let out a small chuckle, “No it was just I was not feeling so well” King replied not even looking at Clef “Anyway wanna come with us Bright and I wanted to get a Drink after Work?” Clef asked with an excited face “No sorry you know how I am towards drinking” King replied, “Oh come on it's only one time how bad can it be?” Clef pleaded with him “Remember the last time I drank with you?” King said with an annoyed tone in his voice “Was it really so bad?” Clef asked dumbfounded “Getting arrested sounds good to you?” King answered with a more annoying voice “Oh come on this will be fun just you, me, and Bright enjoining a couple of drinks and carousing through the city” Clef was starting to beg King "Also it was not our fault that you started this bar fight" Clef muttered silently to himself "The Answer is no now please leave me alone I have Work to do” King said annoyed towards Clef "Are you su-" "Do you really think I want to go to prison again" king cut him off, which made clef back off, afterward King went back to work. It was a rather calm day with no real casualties or problems, King got his stuff and headed towards the exit when he was stopped by a familiar face Dr.Jack Bright: “Hey Everett how would you like to hang out with us?” he asked, “I already told Clef I don't want to come along, what is so hard about no?” King asked Bright “Oh come on it's so rare that you do something with us also you don't really have anything else to do, do you?” Bright asked him with a confused look “Of course I have.” King answered him with an annoyed look on his face “What pulling Apple seeds out of your Pipes again?” Bright asked trying to keep a giggle away, after hearing this King just turned away and went into his car “Oh come on I was only Joking King” Bright screamed after King as he saw him driving away, King on the other end was just driving while thinking to himself: “I Kinda want to get along with them but they are so chaotic it's a dangerous hazard to be around them.” Upon arriving he got out of the car and saw the giant apple again: “Oh right this thing also is here” he thought upon entering it was pretty late so he decided to go straight to bed.

King was standing in a huge Throne room before him was an Old Man sitting looking over to King: “King it’s glad to see you again” the old man spoke “And are you enjoying the mansion already” “Mansion?” Everett asked confused “The only thing you gave me was a gigantic apple that was hiding behind apple seeds that filled my room and followed me everywhere!” “I know it was not really nice but that was my way of showing that I want you as the next Ruler of the Fruit Kingdoms,” His Old Man said with slight excitement in his Voice “Fruit Kingdom what are you talking about?” King was just dumbfounded “You read my letter didn't you?” the Old man asked “You mean the one with what was it "Princess of Lemons"?” King questioned his old man “Yes she will probably arrive today at your Door to try and unit the kingdoms via Marriage!” The Old man was filled with excitement “Marriage!” King was shocked by what he just heard “You are not just going to force me to marry some living fruit because I have to unit I a Kingdom that I don't even live in” “Everett King that’s not a way of talking with your father you will engage in this Wedding even if you don't want to! Anyway, she is coming it's time for you to wake up” As the Man said this he clapped with his palms. King woke up as he heard a knock on his Door he got up and got some simple clothes and went towards the door thinking to himself: “Please was it just a dream please was it just a dream.” As he opened the door he was greeted with quite the surprise, in front of him was a beautiful Lady, short blonde hair with pink ends, a dress that matches the hair, lime green eyes and a nice figure as well as a tiara made out of leaves of a Lemon tree with a lemon shaped gem at the front, her whole appearance was almost the complete opposite to Kings messy Brown hair, blue eyes and slim figure which was covered by sloppy clothes, he was quite stunned at first but then the Woman started to speak with a very elegant voice: “Ehm excuse me are you Everett King?” King slowly answered: “First of who are you?” hesitant to answer her question “Of course I’m sorry my Name is Clementine Limon but people know me more like the Princess of Lemons” “Shit the old man was right,” King thought to himself “Ehm Mister?” Clementine looked at him with a worried face: “Are you alright?” “What yeah I’m fine” king replied “But if you are searching for King then you are standing right in front of him” “Ohh then I’m so relieved, it is such an honor to meet Son of the Rome King and that his Son is such a handsome gentleman,” Clementine said with a smile on her face “O-Oh Thank you for the compliment” Everett looked a bit away flustered that someone called him handsome: “Want to come in?” King slowly asked “Of course thanks for the kindness,” Clementine says as she slowly enters, King notices something behind her, a horse that has yellow tainted skin and let out a faint scent of lemons, after shaking his head a bit he goes inside where he sees Clementine sitting on his Couch looking nervously around “So how was your Journey,” King said not knowing what to actually say “It was okay you could say,” Clementine says with a nervous tone she was as awkward as king was right now before more could happen king heard a ringing from his cell phone: "Sorry I have to take this" he went into the kitchen and took the phone and asked: "Hello Everett King here" "KING HEY BUDDY WHAT'S UP" the voice on the phone yelled "Nothing Clef" King replied annoyed of why it was clef out of everyone "If you have nothing to do, might if I come over?" He asked "No you can't" King Replied quick "Why not could use some company." "Ehm… My house looks like a mess." "Ohh right I forgot Apple Seeds isn't it?" Clef asked "Yeah still I just can't get them away" King lied to Clef to get off of him "Ever tried planting? Them it's like the easiest thing you could do." Clef asked like it was an obvious question "Do you really think I didn't try this already? It hasn't worked." King lied again, "Alright then if you ever change your mind you know where to call bye." Afterward Clef hangs up leaving King alone on the phone, now alone and with nothing to distract he heads back into the living room where Clementine was waiting for him "Sorry this was just a co-worker who wanted to know something" King said entering the room "It's okay it must be hard to have people around you that are not as smart as you" she replied with a smile "Heh…thanks for the compliment but we both know that we don't want this marriage." King said with a blank expression, Clementine on the other hand just looked away and then slowly started to speak: "W-well but we have or how else can peace be brought?" "What does it matter if Peace or not I'm not affected if those Kingdoms are at war or not so if you have anything else to say you could just leave because this won't really work." King replied with a straight face.
