Rinsing Lies

Unfortunate Start

Once upon a time, there was the Kingdom of Souls on a planet in another milky way. The Souls King Henry ruled fairly with passion and love on his citizens. One rainy day, the king was walking anxiously in the corridor. Even his palace made of gemstones and diamonds couldn't keep him calm. He had been waiting for this moment for 9 months.

A maid came out from the Queen's room, holding the future of the kingdom. The King held the baby boy in his hands. The little kid was giggling, pleasing his father a lot. "David Pearson, come here at once!" the King said with joy. The regent of the king came running to his master. "Yes, your majesty," David whispered out of breath. "Look at my precious prince!" said the King full of pride. "He shall be named Prince Peter Souls." David Pearson hid his jealousy under a smile. "Yes, your majesty. The prince is going to be a majestic ruler like you," said David. 

Peter was a curious little boy who his father adored so much. The King loved and took care of Peter because the Queen passed away soon after giving birth. He added his love for the Queen to his son. On the other hand, David Pearson was busy planning to clear the young prince out of his way to becoming the king. David took care of Peter a lot to gain trust from Peter as well as the King.

It was the day of Peter's 10th birthday. The palace was decorated and looked majestic. Peter was dressed in a silk suit, boots from the best shoemakers in the kingdom, a hat made of softest feathers, and a little crown made of rare diamonds. He had a calm smile on his face. The King was pleased with his prince's appearance. David Pearson was dressed in his best clothes too. During the ceremony, the King was busy talking to his old friends. David persuaded Peter to go for a walk. Peter accepted his offer and both went for a walk along a river beside the palace. Peter and David were having an interesting conversation. Peter noticed a small boat approaching the river bank. Before Peter could do anything, a man snatched him into the boat and tied him up. The boat left the river bank and headed to a place far away from the palace. David went back to the palace. After some minutes, people noticed the little prince was missing. The King turned pale and passed out. The maids and the doctors were busy taking care of the King. Lots of the king's men were sent to look for the prince. David Pearson's plan was successful. The little prince is the only child the King had ever had. If there weren't any prince, David could be the next king of the Souls Kingdom.
