Ailema the Cat Warrior (In editing)

The House

In the morning Ailema went to the hall of kings (which is where the king is on his throne)
"Um...your highness?" Ailema asked as she stood in front of him.

"Ailema, please call me Dad or Father." The king said. "Okay...Father, can I ask you something?" Ailema played with her fingers.

"Yes, of course." The king said. "You know I don't want to be a fancy smanchy princess." She said. "Yes." He nodded.

"And you know I don't want to live in a fancy smanchy castle." She said. "Yes."
"So a friend gave me an idea." The king became curious.

"Yes?" He asked. "And this idea is for people to make me a house in the woods so I can forage my own food and still be the princess, I will be known as the princess who lives in the woods, so what do you think?" Ailema smiled to show him how much she wanted this.

"Well....it's....interesting." The king thought it wasn't right for a princess. "And?" She asked eagerly. "And it's a very good idea." He thought it was a terrible idea.

"And?" She waited for him to say yes. "And I will except your request." The king was only doing this so she would be happy.

"Yeah!" She grinned and danced around the room. "BUT with one little favor in return." The king said. She stopped dancing, "Yes?"

"Tell me who gave you this idea." He said. "Okay that's easy...it was William." She waited for him to get mad. "What?!" He shouted.

"Yeah." Ailema was amused at this, actually. "When did you see him!" He commanded. "In the woods...why?" She asked.

"Oh, last night, well....let's get started on planning your house, is it going to be big?" The king changed the subject.

"No."
"Small?"
"No."
"Medium?"
"Yes."
"Is it going to be fancy?"
"No."
"Casual?"
"Yes."
"Fancy food?"
"No."
"Villager food?"
"No."
"No food?"
"Yes."

"No food?!?! How are you going to eat!?" He exclaimed. "I will find and forage my own food!" Ailema declared. "But...but...what if you can't find any?" The king asked.

"I will, chill out I have been doing this since my dad died." The king didn't want to do this but agreed anyways, "Uh...oh okay."

"Yay!" She cheered, continuing her dance. So the builders got started on her house.

                                                           A FEW DAYS LATER
"Ailema!" The king called. Ailema came into the room. "Yes....Father?" She asked.
"Your house is done." He told her.

She grinned, "Yay! Can I see it now?" The king shrugged, "Yeah, sure." He said. "Yay!" Ailema ran to her new house to see a log house. "Wow! This is amazing!" She exclaimed.

"You really think so?"

"Of course! It looks JUST like my old house!" The king looks at the other peoples houses and see's the exact same houses,
"well...uh...I was thinking of you"
"oh thank you!"
"No problem sweet princess"
"ok your taking it to far"
"sorry...I'll just go now."
Ailema puts her stuff in her house and rearranged some stuff when..."
hey Ailema" Ailema turned around and blushed.
"Hey William, what are you doing here?"
"I saw you and just wanted to stop by and say hi"
"oh well then...hi"
"uh hi"
"so...how are you doing?"
"Good...you?"
 "Fine thank you"
"so uh....want to go climb the trees?"
"Sure!" So Ailema and William go to the forest and climb a tree and..."stop right there!"
Ailema and William freeze, "hello? Who are you?"
"I am Grunge Dill pike the evil guy"
"my mind is blank"
"I have no clue who you are"
"what! Why!"
"Because you are NOT popular"
"and nobody knows who you are"
"no! I am popular!"
"Aww does someone want their mommy?"
"Or their bottle?"
"Where is his mommy?"
 Ailema and William grinned. "In jail"
"I don't want to see my mommy!" Ailema and William laugh so hard that they fall out of the tree and are on the floor laughing their heads off,
"help....I can't......breath....ha-ha-ha-ha!"
"ha-ha-ha-ha! Baby Grunge!"
"Ha-ha-ha!"
"Stop it!"
"Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!"
"I said stop!"
"Ha-ha-ha-ha!"
"I SAID STOP!"
"Ok we will stop for a little bit"
"now back to what I was doing, I will take you as hostages and make the king pay me for you!"
"Uh that's a bad idea"
"well why?"
"Because one he wouldn't do that, and two because we are stupid nobody's"
"what!"
"Yup, right?"
"What? No we are...." Ailema stabs William in the waist with her elbow,
"ouch! uh...ya! Totally not outlaws or royalty or anything like that, he he....he"
"then I will go take someone else!"
"Ok, do what you want" Grunge ran to the village out of sight so Ailema looks at William and says, "phew that was to close"
"ya...hey you are really smart!"
"Really?" Ailema blushed,  
"oh! We need to warn the king!"
"You mean your daddy?"
"SHUT UP WILLIAM!"
"Sorry...I guess I'm still in the joking mood"
"no I'm sorry I...I just only call him father because my dad......"
"I get it, let's go." So Ailema and William go off to warn the king.
"Father!"
"Yes?"
"Someone named Grunge Dill Pike is going to take someone hostage so you will pay to get them back!"
"What!"
"Ya!'
"How do you know that?"
"Well Grunge had caught us and he said he was going to take us hostage...."
"US?"
"yeah us and so we said that we were just stupid nobody's so he went away, now we need to stop him!"
"Wait we!"
"Yes! Me and William! William come out!" William comes out of his hiding place and stands next to her,
"hello uncle"
"hello William" the King spat
"now how are we going to stop him?"
"Hey ask Ailema"
"ok?"
"Ailema's really smart"
"ok, Ailema?"
"Yes?
"How are we going to stop him?"
"Well....we can tell everyone to go in their houses and lock the doors"
"perfect! You ARE really smart!"
"That's what I said! Ok let's do it!"

"Attention people! Please go into your houses and lock your doors!"
"Attention! Please go in your houses and lock your doors!"
Everyone goes into their houses and locks their doors, except for a few,
"the people without houses line up right............there!"
The people without houses line up next to the water fountain.
"Now Ailema go see which one is Grunge Dill Pike"
"ok." Ailema goes to the line and says "no, next! No, next! No, next! Yes! Wait....no, next! No, next!"
"No, next! No...wait! It's him! It's Grunge Dill Pike! Get him!"
The guards grab Grunge and put him in jail.
"All in a day's work right?"
"Right" so Ailema and William go to their houses and get some sleep.
