Scene 2 - Princess Lucia Gets Kidnapped
It was late in the evening.
Everyone in the castle are asleep except Lucia and Lucas.
They headed outside to the royal garden.
The princess steps out of the castle first.
Little does Princess Lucia know, she was about to get ambushed by the royal guards.
The two guards came out of the pink rose bushes. They grabbed her arms.
Lucia gasped.
They tried to put her arms behind her back.
But the princess attempts to fight back at them.
Princess Lucia: Guards, what are you doing to me?!
Royal Guard 1: Hold still!
Royal Guard 3: We were ordered to do this.
Lucia was afraid.
Princess Lucia: Who told you guards to kidnap me?!
Two more royal guards helped them out.
One guard pulled out a sturdy rope.
Royal Guard 4: We are not ordered to kidnap you.
The princess cannot compete with four guards.
Her arms went behind her back.
The second guard took the rope from the fourth guard.
The three guards hold Lucia while the second guard ties up her arms.
Royal Guard 2: Things are changing, your highness. I believe your brother has something to say before we take you away from here.
Princess Lucia: What?
She faced her twin sibling, who is standing in the doorway.
The princess was gonna scream.
Princess Lucia: Lucas! Tell them to let me-
The third guard covered her mouth with white cloth.
Princess Lucia: Mph!
Her voice became muffled.
The third guard tied the white cloth behind her head.
The princess struggles in the guards' clutches.
Princess Lucia: Please...let me go...I have done nothing...
The princess faces her brother again.
Princess Lucia: Lucas...mmph...get help...mph-mph...
The prince walks to his sister.
He was smirking.
Prince Lucas: Lucia...
The princess got her eyes big.
She was pleading.
Princess Lucia: ...Help...
The prince huffs.
Prince Lucas: Dear sweet twin sister of mine...
The prince became mischievous.
Prince Lucas: Do you believe you can rule our home kingdom, without a king by your side?
The princess was perplexed by her brother.
Prince Lucas: Let me clear everything up for you, Lucia...Father and mother left this morning. I told them that I will tell you they said goodbye to you. You weren't in the dining room earlier because you're what? Taking an early swim? Oh no worry. They'll be back in a week.
The princess was concerned.
Princess Lucia: Who's in charge of the castle?
The prince was confidently evil.
Prince Lucas: Our dear parents did mentioned you are. Yet I'm going to change that.
Princess Lucia: What...!
Prince Lucas: No one except my best four guards knows about my scheme. You may be born first before me. You may enjoyed healthy foods but I'm done with meatless dinners every night. Oh our mother won't eat the fish. She's good.
Princess Lucia: What are you getting at, Lucas?
Prince Lucas: I heard father talked to you about picking you over me to rule the kingdom.
Princess Lucia: Don't do this to me.
The princess was worried.
Princess Lucia: I didn't know you were jealous.
Prince Lucas: You realized that now?
Princess Lucia: Lucas...Please...please tell them to release me...
The prince was annoyed.
Princess Lucia: Lucas...Brother...
The princess was bemused.
Prince Lucas: Lucia, I hereby sending you to the witch's house until commoner or royal marries you.
The princess gasps in shock.
The royal guards are mind-blown.
Royal Guard 1: Wha...?
Royal Guard 3: Is he serious?
Royal Guard 4: Really?
The prince grin in his smug expression.
Prince Lucas: Goodbye, Princess Lucia...The two white witches will take good care of you...Just like our mother have...
Lucia writhes from the guards.
Princess Lucia: No! No! No, you can't!
Prince Lucas: All right, gentlemen...Take my twin sister away to the witch's house...And make sure SHE doesn't return until she is married to a commoner or a royal...
The four royal guards drags the princess away from the prince.
Princess Lucia: Lucas, no! Stop!
The second guard bows to the prince.
Royal Guard 2: I avowed that your order will be done.
Prince Lucas waved his left hand a farewell. He made his devilish smile.
The princess was being dragged by guards. They pulled her out of the royal garden.
Princess Lucia: Let go of me! No, let me go! NO!
The princess has been out of the prince's sight.
Prince Lucas was so much happier.
He was ready to try fish.
What do you think? Just curious.
