Isabelle takes off her hat to turn to us as I feel fear of what the king will do to us if he finds out his daughter is here without her guards, "Please stand." she tells us, which has me get up with my brother as the princess sighs while placing her hat down on the table, "You must think I'm very silly." Isabelle tells us as I look at her and then my brother to say to her she is not silly, "No. I just wish that... Well, earlier...... at the market..." Jack was trying to say, but it was not coming out, which caused me to lean on the chair near my brother, watching the conversation with wonder on how it is to turn out, "Thank you...... for defending my honor, Jack." Isabelle tells Jack as I try to hide the smile edging away at my lips on these two, "Anytime." Jack says as I sigh at these two they like each other, "Here, let me take your coat." I tell her as I take her coat from her hand, and she gives me a little nod on the action, "And...... until you find your own adventure..." Jack says as he hands over the book that Mother and Father used to read to us, which always filled me with hope on the adventures out there, "The Giants of Gantua." Isabelle comments as I nod as I look at them, "Our father used to read that to us." Jack tells Isabelle, as I feel out of place here; the princess chuckles at Jack. There is a spark there, "That was always my mother's job." Isabelle tells Jack as I roll my eyes at them, "I hope you find what you're looking for, Your Highness." Jack states as I look to the princess, "Call me Isabelle. both of you." she tells us as I look to her on such words, "Isabelle." Jack tried it out as I heard the cat growling at something on the ground, which made me look that way.
The whole house then began to shake as a rumbling sounded out around us as we were looking at the floor. Vines then broke through the floor boards, throwing us backwards, which caused me to land on the wall with a grunt on the impact, which caused me to feel pain shooting through my back. A table then lands on Isabelle, which has Jack get up as I sit on the floor with shock and horror at what is happening around us. This is not normal, "Isabelle!" Jack yelled out as he was knocked back by vines coming through the floor again, making him grab my hand as we went through the ceiling, landing on the ground outside with the rain pouring on us. I grunt in pain on the impact, "Jack! Daisy!" Isabelle then yells, which has me get up and run for the door to get Isabelle out of there, but a vine then grows out to block the door, which has me try and open it, which is a struggle on its own, "No!" I heard Isabelle yell out as she grunted, trying to open the door as I pulled the door towards me, "Jack! Hurry!" I yell for my brother, who grabs the axe on the stump, which has me pull the door more, not wishing for us to lose the princess like this, "Get me out! Jack! Please! No!" Isabelle yells as Jack jumps up onto the step. I grab his arm, and the house begins to go upwards as I pull the vines. Jack is panting, not liking the height, it seems.
I pull Jack up as Isabelle jumps back in shock at my brother, appearing like that, "Jack! You came back!" Isabelle says as I look to my brother, who looks down at the ground that was leaving us as we went higher and higher, "No, no, no! No!" he kept repeating, "What is it? What's wrong?" Isabelle asks as I look at her with a sorry look on my brother's fear, "Heights. I'm not wildly keen on heights." Jack tells her as he begins to cut the vines at the door as I hold onto the window plane so as not to fall, "Hold on, I'm coming! It's stuck!" Isabelle says as she forces the door open, which throws my brother backwards, making me go wide-eyed. Isabelle grabs his shirt, bringing him back to us and preventing him from falling.
But then the step under Jack's feet breaks, which has Jack fall, which has me to go to grab his hand as well as Isabelle, who holds onto him as I am losing grip on the window plane and my footing, "Hold on!" Isabelle yells out as I try to bring my brother up, but I am losing grip like Isabelle. Jack then falls, taking me and the bracelet with him as I scream on us falling, "No! Jack! Daisy!" Isabelle yells for us as we fall for Jack and me to slide down an enormous vine. At the same time, my brother holds onto me to protect me while getting knocked out on a vine, which has us land on the ground, making me winch as I lay there, feeling pain in my back. I then sit up and look at the house, climbing higher into the sky with the princess inside it.
Morning rose as birds were chirping overhead, with me sitting in the mud looking up at the beanstalk with sadness about what happened to our beloved princess, "What were you doing with my daughter's bracelet? hummm?" I heard someone say, which had me look that way with shock. I felt fear take over me as I looked at the person who happened to be the king. I then looked at my brother, who was still holding the bracelet. Some knights come over, forcing my brother down onto his knees as I also kneel. I look to the guardians; I land my eyes on the man from before who has his eyes on me as my eyes go to my feet instantly, feeling heat in his stare, "No, I didn't steal it. I promise. She showed up at our house looking for shelter. I was trying to help her, Your Majesty, and then..." Jack explained as I sat there, feeling this was not the time for such words.
The king is looking at us with suspicion, "And then?" the king questions as I look at him at what has happened around here, "All this happened." Jack answered as he did a quick look around and then back to the king who was sitting on his horse, "Wait a minute, I recognize you from the market. Your name is, uh, Jack. Let him up." the guardian tells the knights who let go of Jack who gets up as I stand next to Jack, "And where is your...... house, Jack?" the king then asks my brother as I look to the beanstalk as Jack points up to the top of the beanstalk as it was climbing higher and higher into the sky as the clouds cover it from view at where it stops, "Elmont...... assemble a team. Men who can climb." the king tells the guardian, "Yes, sire." Elmont then comments, who happens to be the man that I fancy that helps on me knowing his name, "Your Majesty. I'd like to accompany them." the lord then tells the king as I look at them with a raised brow, "With due respect......Lord Roderick, this mission is likely to be arduous. Best left to the professionals." Elmont tells the lord as I observe him on such a reaction, so does that rule me out as well, "Your majesty, I would like the chance to prove my worth to my beloved. And to you."
Roderick tells the king as I watch him, I do not trust the lord that well, and it seems that Elmont is not pleased, "Very well. Just bring her back." the king tells the men as I look at them, and I feel the need to help them some way, "Jack! Daisy!" I heard Uncle call while running towards us. Still, the guards then stop him short from coming closer, "No further!" one of them yells as I look at our uncle with fear about what he will say to us about what has happened; I bet he will blame us, "Jack! Daisy! What have you done?" uncle questions us as I stand there gripping my hand into a fist this was not our fault, "Who is this man?" the king questions while looking over his shoulder at our uncle who kneels down to the king, "He's our uncle." I answer as the king looks at me, knowing I speak little, but I observe heaps it's how I work, "Your Majesty...... I want to volunteer." Jack then says as I look at him at such words, knowing if he goes up there, I wish to go as well; I am not being left with our uncle, "Jack!" Uncle calls out to my brother as I look to the king, "Your Majesty, please." Elmont then comments as I look to him on such words, knowing that it could go horribly wrong and I could lose my brother as well, "Why don't we bring wives and lady friends? while we're at it." the other guardian questions as I look to him on such words, that is rude to say, "Let's not..." Lord Roderick then starts to say, but his little guard starts to laugh as I look to the king, "And I also wish to go, your majesty", I tell him as he looks to me with a raised brow as I watch him closely with Elmont looking onto me at myself wishing to go on this quest when women are not thought of is such regard, "Let's not be hasty. I think the young man and woman should come. They're the only ones who saw what happened. They might shed light on this mystery." Lord Roderick tells the king, as I feel like I will not back out from a challenge even if I am a woman, "Your Majesty..." Elmont begins to say, but his eyes come to mine in a second; it feels like he does not wish for me to go up there, but I will not take no for an answer, "No, Elmont, Roderick's right. They might be an asset. Now go. And may God help you bring back my daughter." the king tells us as I nod on such words knowing that this is sure to be a fantastic adventure.
