My Angel system

After Jude had run into the forest and mysteriously disappeared according to the guards, Ashburn had left with Melina, and the king had ordered his guards to throw both Carl and Festus into the castle's prison.

The guards wanted to take Festus' staff away from him but the light wizard had refused and wouldn't let go of the staff.

"I would have loved to give up my staff to you but someone is currently after it and it is dangerous to allow this staff to fall into the wrong hands," Festus said, turning his gaze to Roy as the king clearly knew what he was talking about.

"Listen Festus I am not going to take away your staff but if you try anything stupid, I assure you that I will find you and you will not be coming back with me," Roy said, pointing at his face.

After saying that he gave his guards the go sign as they dragged both Festus and Carl to the castle.

It had not even been up to two hours since they had been locked together in the same cell before someone came to see them, someone Carl couldn't even look in the face right now.

The young knight was sitting in front of the bars when the princess walked and as soon as he had seen who it was, he had bowed his head.

Diana walked straight to where he was sitting and stood there without saying anything.

Looking at her face you could tell grievance had reached its boiling point.

"Why didn't you tell me about any of this?" Her voice was breaking as she was trying to stop herself from crying.

"Your father didn't want you to know about it," Carl said with his head still bowed.

"That wasn't what I meant, you knew where the elf was, Tauriel right?"

"How do you know that name?" Carl said, raising his head.

"I spoke to her through the orb when she was trying to contact Jude, she seemed nice but I guess she's not who I thought she could be since she's the reason why my little sister got kidnapped," Diana said as rage was beginning to fill her voice even with the sobs.

"Listen, Diana, those elves didn't do anything wrong, their king is only looking for them because they helped Jude escape from their kingdom," Carl said.

"What was Jude doing in their kingdom in the first place?" Diana asked.

"He was looking for his sister when he got captured," Carl said.

"And you kept all this away from me." She said as her sobbing was beginning to get louder.

"Diana please stop crying if I had told you any of this it wouldn't have…."

"It wouldn't have what?" Diana asked.

"It wouldn't have changed anything," Carl said.

"I know that it wouldn't have changed anything but don't you think I deserve to know what's going on or you just don't trust me enough to let me know?" She said, "You know I see my father's point in keeping this away from me no matter how irrelevant it may be but I just don't see your point."

"Diana," Jude called as he tried to say something but she had cut him short.

"Do you know where they are?" She asked.

"Who?" Carl asked.

"Jude and the elf, do you know where they are?" She asked again.

"No," Carl replied, he was a bit hesitant to answer that question.

"Right." She said drawing away from the bars a little. "How am I even supposed to know you're telling the truth?" She said before slowly making her way out of the room.

"Diana," Carl called but she didn't even turn back until she was out of sight.

Festus had been sitting at the back carefully listening to the conversation between the two and he was only listening because he didn't know what to say.

"I see you have something special with the princess," Festus said after she had left.

​ "Yeah but she's never going to forgive me for this," Carl said, bowing his head.

Diana had gone straight to her room after speaking with Carl, she fell on her bed and sobbed some more before cleaning her eyes, getting up to straighten her dress, and taking a deep breath.

Her next destination was her father's throne room as she also needed to have a conversation with him.

She walked into the room to find Roy on his throne with a cup of wine in his hand.

"Diana." He called on spotting her but he had gotten a whole new and different response compared to the one he always got.

"Don't call my name." She said with a mean look on her face, she was glad there was enough lighting in the room so that he could see her face from where she was standing. "Your daughter is out there in an unsafe place and you're here enjoying a cup of wine."

"Diana drinking this doesn't mean I'm enjoying it, it's a way to."

"Forget your sorrow, I know," Diana said.

"What's the problem, Diana?" Roy asked, dropping the cup of wine on the small table beside his throne.

"Oh, so now you're going to act like you don't know," Diana said. "I was out there father, I heard everything about the elves and the attack and I thought you were going to come in here and tell me the truth but you just decided to make another shit up.

"The only reason you mentioned the part about the elf taking Melina was because I was in the room when he took her."

"Diana, there's a good explanation to all of this," Roy said.

"I know, you think keeping me in the dark means keeping me safe," Diana said. "But you're not me." She said, shaking her head.

"Diana."

"It just hurts me when I find out about all these things that you have been keeping away from me all in the name of keeping me safe." She said,

"Diana I can assure you that it was all for your own good," Roy said.

"That's the only thing you say and you still can't explain how it was for my own good." She said, "You know what, you just sit there and pretend to be a good king and father while I go look for a way to find my sister."

"Diana," Roy called but she didn't respond to his calls as she walked out of the throne room.

He let out a deep sigh as he crashed back on his throne and fell into his thoughts.

It didn't take long before he was snapped out of those thoughts as the lights in the room were all blown out except for the ones close to his throne.

He was really startled as he heard footsteps approaching him until a figure in a dark hood had stopped right in front of his throne.

"How did you get in here!" Roy said with a raised voice as he quickly got up from his throne.

"Don't bother yourself, they are all asleep." The hooded figure said.

"Who are you?" Roy asked with a shaky voice.

"I don't think that's necessary, I am only here to make a bargain with you."

"What bargain?" Roy asked.

"I will help you find your daughter if you get me what I want from one of your prisoners." The hooded figure said.

"Which of my prisoners?" Roy asked slowly, sitting down on his throne.

"The light wizard."
