  Louisa came back from farm with newly harvested rice grains, she placed it in the kitchen before coming to seat outside, she decided to wait for Arthur a little before proceeding to prepare meal for dinner. After a while she stood up went into the kitchen and started  preparing dinner. Maybe he hasn't caught any game today she thought. It was now getting late and Arthur wasn't back yet she got worried, she decided to check Arthur's special spot at the river bank, Louisa was disappointed, Arthur was no where to be found.
She wasn't able to eat dinner she went to bed on empty stomach, hoping Arthur would be back before dawn

At the palace.
  The guards entered the king's palace dragging in Arthur like a criminal.

'My King, we found the princess in the custody of this young man' he said prostrating before the king.

  The king was angry and said ' My poor princess, how could you do his to her you will surely pay for this, Guards!! Lock him up in the dungeon ' the king ordered.

  Arthur was taken out of the king's premises to the dungeon where other criminals who disobeyed the king were kept.

Harry was without food for days, he kept thinking about his mother at home. She would be worried he thought to himself. How bad would it be if he had left the princess alone, he wouldn't have been in this mess he would have  been with his mom enjoying her delicious meal she always prepare, but the deed is done, he needs to get out of this place and fast.


Louisa's house.

      Louisa wept day and night as the sudden disappearance of her son struck her heart, she wailed for days without eating, she soon heard footsteps coming closer to her she quickly wiped her tears and ran towards the direction thinking it was her beloved Arthur. She was soon disappointed to see women returning home from the stream, they laughed about something earlier said before as they turn in to continue another gist.

'The princess has been found, it was discovered that she was in the custody of a boy called Arthur.' the first woman said knowingly.

  'Why would a young boy kidnap the princess, of what use ?' another woman said looking confused.
'You know young boys of these days would do anything for money, or don’t you like money.’ The first woman said.
       Louisa was shocked and she ran back to her house crying with different thoughts running through her mind.
'Why would he kidnap the Princess?, he didn't tell me what really happened, he said she was ambushed, I know my son was honest about his side of the story, then there most be a set up somewhere, I didn't even know the princess was missing too by the time I got home.' she said as she sat down on her bed. She needs to do something and fast.
