*steps out of procrastinating room*

*sits back at writing desk.*

The guard escorted the princess back to the palace. When she arrived she removed her cloak, replaced her peasant clothing with her royal attire, and stormed towards the studies of the man she was looking for.

She entered the room to find him standing in the center with a book in his hand while the other formally rested behind his back.

He looked up at the princess with a calm expression.

"Good evening princess. How may I help you?" He said as he closed the book he had been reading.

The masked girl stormed up to him.

"The guards just arrested a boy from the market today." She spoke harshly. "One of them informed me that it was under YOUR orders."

"My job is to enforce the law and take action when needed your highness. That boy was a criminal."

"Oh really?" Ladybug placed her hands on both hips. "What was his crime?"

Hawkmoth tried to think of an explanation. "Why....kidnapping the princess, of course."

"Kidnapped?" The girl scoffed. "I wasn't kidnapped. I ran away!"

"Oh...." Hawkmoth's expression became sullen. "Oh my.."

He walked past the girl with his head down. "I wish I have known..."

Ladybug felt her chest tighten. "What do you mean?"

Not facing her the man continued to speak. "I'm afraid the boys sentence has already been carried out..."

Her heart stopped. She didn't want to assume what she thought he was going to say, but she had to know.

"What sentence?" She asked quietly.

Hawkmoth turned back towards the princess and in a cold tone he answered.

"Death."

Her mind went blank. She couldn't believe it was true. Her knees became weak as she fell to the ground.

"N...No." She felt the tears fall from her face.

"Don't worry now dear princess." Hawkmoth spoke with little comfort. "Maybe its for the best...."

The girl shot a glare at the man and stood up.

"You're a monster!" She shouted before running out of the room.

Hawkmoth watched as the sobbing princess ran out and he gave a sinister smile.

"I think she took it rather well...."

Ladybug ran into the garden and fell to the ground. She put her face in her hands as she continued to sob.

She couldn't believe it. That the sweet boy she saw today was actually gone.

Sentenced to death for a crime he didn't even commit.

Yes, he was a thief, but the death penalty for stealing food?

If becoming queen meant she could prevent such things from happening again then she will take the crown as soon as the time comes.

She would also have to speak to her father on the issue. She knew he was unaware of this. There was no way he would allow this.

Still....it was already too late. She would never see that boy again and worst of all...

"I never even knew his name..." She spoke sadly.

Tikki who hovered next to her, sat on the girl's shoulder and touched her cheek. She didn't know what to say, her chosen was hurting and so was she due to having also losing a new friend today.

The girl felt a hand on her other shoulder. She looked to see Alya looking down at her with concern.

Ladybug choked a sob and threw herself in to Alya's arms.

The auburn hair girl said nothing. She let the princess cry while she rubbed her back in an attempt to comfort her anyway she could.

She would wait until she was ready.
