David

David is worried about his sister Pam; he did not know where she was. David promised his father he would look after Pam and he feels like he failed his father. David saw a beautiful woman. The woman was lost. "Hello, my name is David Wilson. Can I help you with something?" David asks. "I hurt my leg and I cannot move too well. My name is Melissa Miller," Melissa introduces herself. "Can I help you to your room?" David offers. "Thank you, David," Melissa replied.

David helps Melissa back to her room, and she invites him inside. "Where are you from?" Melissa asks. "I am from Mountain Home, Arkansas. Where are you from?" David asks. "I am from France, but I moved to Scotland when I was eighteen years old. I am Princess Emma's maid," Melissa explained. "There is a princess on the ship," David replied with surprise. "Yes, but please do not say anything. She ran away because her brother wants her to marry Prince Henry.

Ivy

Ivy was angry with her son Ben. She blames her stepdaughter, Queen Cindy, for putting crazy ideas in his head. Ivy wanted her son to marry Princess Emma. Ben did not want to marry Princess Emma. Ivy did not know where her son was. Ivy hopes Ben has not met any woman because Ivy wants her son to marry a princess. "Do you know where my grandson is?" Eve asks. "I do not know," Ivy replied. "I cannot believe you cannot control that boy! Does Ben care for this family?!" Eve asks angrily.

"Mom, Ben is a grown man and you are right I cannot control him. I wish you would get off my back!" Ivy said. "I wish you were not such a disappointment!" Eve replied angrily. Ivy left in a huff. She really disliked her mother sometimes. Ivy is trying and she wishes her mother would see that. She thought her mother was a disappointment too because she could not get her brother a princess as a wife.

The next day Ivy heard that Princess Emma ran away or is missing. Ivy was wondering if her son Ben ran away with Princess Emma. Ivy would be really happy if Ben and Princess Emma were seeing each other, but she did not know what was going on with her son. Her stepdaughter would never tell her where her son was. Ivy had not spoken to her stepdaughter since she got married.
