Today will be Aunt Childea and her partner's scheduled trial, I feel somehow relieved but not that quite since everything I have worked for hasn't finished yet. I got dressed up and so as my parents, we will leave by 8:00 am while the trial begins at 9:00. We then rode on the carriage to the Imperial Court, when we arrived. The Imperial Court looked like a place with large structures with trial and justice symbols surrounding the whole area. The Emperor was already have arrived, everyone in the court bowed to His Majesty, the Sun of the Empire. Arthur was there too, it looked like he wanted to tag along since it wasn't necessary for royals to participate in every trial. We exchanged looks then I inverted my head to another direction, " Why does he have to be here?" I thought to myself. " Rene, are you sure that you want to attend the trial?" Father said, " Yes Father, this is about us" I replied.
Mother and Father both placed their hand on my back and we then started walking towards our respective seats. After the long wait, the judge has entered and declared the commencing of the trial. The man who attempted to hit an arrow at my parents was brought out to the center of the court, " This is the man who has committed the sin of murder, what do you plead?" the judge said. " M-my name is Robert Your Honor," the man said, " I do not plead of guilty as I was forced to take part in this attempted murder" he continued. " Insolent! How dare he plead innocent of himself, he is accepting the pay!" I thought to myself while clenching my fists. " Robert is it, excuses like that doesn't erase the past of you trying to do something out of the law" the judge spoke, " Your Honor I would like to say something would you mind?" I asked then stood up. I knew I was in a hasty position in this state of time. " Child, I have not given anyone to speak yet" the Judge replied, " Let the Little Miss speak," the Emperor said, " Y-yes Sire, then go on young girl". " This man says he was forced to do such a grave thing yet he is being paid so" I blurted out, " And how could you say that?" the Judge said, " Why would Childea force a commoner and threaten him to commit murder when he's got nothing to lose, that shall mean he is being paid," I said.
The whole court was astonished, " Well, we'll look into that later" the Judge said, " Thank you Your Honor" I replied. I then sat down, " Honey, you shouldn't do something reckless," Mother said. " I know my boundaries Mom" I replied. Everything went smoothly like how it was supposed to be, then while the Judge was announcing Robert's sentence he then started to act strangely. He wailed his tied arms up and down and his eyes kept looking from left to right, " Something's not right" I thought to myself. Robert then suddenly began to have a seizure then started vomiting greenish bubbles, " Call the Doctor!" the Judge shouted. The whole court began to ramble, guards hurriedly went inside the court running toward the Emperor. " Your Majesty, the offender has broken loose, Childea Sire" the Knight reported. ", " Corner them! Close the borders fast!" the Emperor blurted.
The Doctor arrived and began to check up on Robert, " Your Majesty, it looks like this man has consumed poison, this type of poison takes effect at a certain time. I feel that this poising has been planned." the Doctor said. I then began to feel panicked but it was not the time, I needed to focus! " The Cabin at not so far from the place I was being isolated my past life!" I thought, I then went up to Arthur. " 2 blocks headed East from Camilla Rest House" I whispered to him, " What?" he replied. " Please bring company when you are there, this is a bargain. I think there might be headed there" I said. " I trust you," Arthur said, I then nodded and walked towards my parents, " Mom, Dad, I have something to do," I said. " Where are you going? It's dangerous Rene" Father said, " Please trust me Father" I replied, Father couldn't bear the look in my eyes then gave me permission, " Just be careful Rene," Mother said. I then went to the gate of the Imperial Court then hid in one of the bushes, " This is going to be thought" I said to myself since I will be teleporting from here to a very far and secluded place.
