Loyal Protecter (Bearbar, Robin)

Zachary nodded and started walking. "Did you see anything of the man?" The woman looked like one of the maids. She didn't looked like the woman from the deck.


I looked back at the ladies in. "So what do ladies in waiting do precisely?"
 
I looked at him."They help ladies with stuff. If I need a bath drawn I could ask them to help me with it. they help me dress every morning and mostly I teach them about what it is to be a lady. In turn they help me with what ever i need." I said and smiled.


Summer shook her head."He had a knife and something else but he ran away fast and I was scared."
 
I nodded. "I see. They seem to be fine young women."


Zachary nodded. "It's okay, it's normal to be scared." He soon found us. "My lady."
 
"Yup, when they get to be 16 they will leave my care and either marry or stay with thier mother." I said and looked at Zachary as they approached. I saw my sister sniffling and she reached out for me and I picked her up in my arms."Shh. It's okay." I said to her before looking at Zachary."What happened?"
 
Zachary cleared his throat so he can explain. "We were playing I spy, at one point she ran around a corner, and she saw man murder a woman. She didn't see what the man looked like. Besides that he had a knife and he toom something from the woman."


I nodded. "Where's the body?" Zachary lead us to the body.
 
I passed Summer to my ladies and told them to stay back. I walked with Zachary and Jepthia up to the body."I'll go get your father." I said and turned walking away. I held my sisters hand as we walked along. I walked up to the kings deck and curtsied to the king."My king. there is something you need to see out in the gardens."
 
The king was talking with a woman, having some tea. He stood up. "Show me." He looked at the woman. "I'll be back." He looked at Alise again and nodded. "Okay, now show me."
 
I nodded and turned leading him back towards the place."Girls can you take my sister back to my room. She shouldn't see this twice." I said and walked into the garden and over to where the body is.
 
The king followed. He sighed. "Damn." He said under his breathe. "We got the guards on high alert me lord." I said in a serious tone. "What do we know?" Zachary explained what he said to Alise. "That's what we know."
 
I nodded and looked at the dead body."She is the one of the maids that attends to Lady Arachne." I said and moved over next to Jepthia and held onto his arm. I was use to death, but this was a bit much.
 
The king nodded. "One of the newest members too." Jepitha and Zachary were looking over the body. "She fought back." I said and I pointed at her bruised Knuckles. Zachary nodded. "And there's a second blood trail leading away. He must have his wpunds covered by now, so the trail might not be complete."
 
I nodded. I bent down and closed the girls eyes."She didn't expect the attack, you can see the start of a cut on the back of her shoulder. I bet if you rolled her over she would have a couple stab wounds in the back."
 
I rolled the body over. "She does." Zachary thought for a moment. "Summer said he took something from her." He looked at Alise. "Did she wear any jewlery?"
 
"No, but she might have been getting something from Lady Arachne." I said and then a scream went over the castle."I guess they found someone else."
 
I followed with the king and when I noticed we were heading up to the ladies rooms in the castle. I hurried up and opened the door to Lady Arachne's room. I walked in and saw the maid who had screamed and Lady Arachne was dead at her table, a tea cup broken on the floor.
 
Jepitha shook his head. "One more, and we'll have a serial killer here." Zachary looked at the maid. "Did you see the person who did it?"
 
The maid shook her head."The other maid gave me some tea to give to my lady and after she drank it her eyes rolled back and she slumpped over like that." I turned and left out into the hall feeling like I was gunna throw up.
 
I nodded. "Poisoned." Zachary walked up and pulled the body back so it was sitting. "Different killer?" I shrugged. "Two murders within a half hour? I don't know."
 
I leaned against the wall out in the hall."Maybe someone hired the maid to poison her and then covered thier tracks just now by killing the maid." I said and tried to calm down.
 
The king nodded "It's possible. What would be motive?" I shrugged. "Someones eliminating your options for a wife?" The king shrugged. "Maybe."
 
I calmed myself down and walked in."It would certainly seem like it." I said and heard a horn signalling a rider approaching the castle. I looked at Jepthia and reached out holding his hand."Don't do anything crazy this time please."
 
I smiled softly. "I'll try my best." Zachary looked at me. "We'll stay hear and look over the spot." The king nodded. I walked down to the gate with her.
 
I went down as the men rode up towards the castle. They had the sigil of my father on thier coat of arms. I step out and they jump down and bow to my."My lady, your father is dead and the war is over most of the kingdom has been taken by the enemy." The said and I nodded knowing what was coming next."We await your command, my queen."
