-I smile and slip into the window of the throne room- "The visitors are gone. Although I don't know where the girl went. Now where is your father?"
-I smile sitting on the arm of the throne- "Well have a maid fetch him. I'd like to get my hide skinned as soon as possible." -I tease-
"Im not keeping a secret, princess. If we are to fall in love then he must know as soon as possible."
King -walks into the throne room with a smile- Oh I knew I'd find you here, and you Sal, what brings ye here tonight Alida -color drains from her face-
-I smile and kneel- "Your majesty. Actually I have a favor to ask of you." -I look up at him- "I would like to court your daughter with your permission."
-walks in stables and sees my horse- "Hey there lightning" -I stroke his nose slowly- -guards come through doors- Guard: Who the hell are you kid!? You're not supposed to be here. "This is my horse sir"
King -face turns red in angry, throws are in the air- What kind of question is that? My daughter!? With you!? Over my dead body buster. -claps hands to summon guards- Be-head him at once! Alida -cries in fear- No!
Guard: I don't give a damn if it's king's horse you're not supposed to be here got it!? -guards draw swords and approach me- -I put in helmet and draw my sword- "By God's might he has shared with me, I am a Templar and a servant to the lord almighty and I will not stand and be accused of nothing"
-I stand, not moving- "I assure you i am as worthy a candidate as any. I may not be royalty but you hate the only other royal family. Am I right? I've serve your daughter loyally for years, protecting her and making sure she isn't lonely and off romancing criminals."
-Guard's throw a couple strikes but I block w/ shield and strike one in the chest killing him in a second- "Damn all of you...you just got your own friend killed" -another charges at me but I duck and strike his ribs-
King -keeps a watchful eye on him- My daughter doesn't need to be courted. She's strong enough to rule this kingdom alone. She doesn't need the likes of you. -guards begins to seize him-
-I draw my daggers, flipping a guard over my shoulder in one fluid motion.- "Have you asked what she wants? Perhaps you should."
-the last two guards charge and I kick hay in ones eye and jump kicking the other one in his stomach- -I jump on lightning and ride out as far as I can from the stables- I pray silently;"Lord my God forgive me I have spilled blood if men and taken a father and husband away from his family. The mourn for his family will haunt me forever. Forvive me Lord. Amen
King -call his guards back to block the exits, takes Alida by the arm, walking out of the room- This isn't about her wishes it's about what's best for this kingdom. -marches Alida up to the tower, and lockers her inside- Guards, be-head him at once.
