Int. Prison - Night
Max visits his sister
Max: Oh little sister! What have you done, do you know that you are in huge trouble? You were very reckless
Monique: I know and I don't care. I am just hurt that I could kill that husband snatching bitch
Max: He was never your husband in the first place. Because of your obsession you have murderer your best friend in cold blood
Monique: Kate is dead?! It was not supposed to be her. It should have been that witch
Max: Instead of regretting and reflecting in your actions you are busy spitting poison. You are crazy, I should have locked you up at home. Then we won't be in this mess
Monique: They don't deserve to be happy and as long as I am alive I will never let them find peace
Max: I did warn you to listen but you didn't, now you will taste death before the people you loath
Monique: That's why I need you to help get out of here. I know that I am already doomed so let my soul have peace at least. I will go to the banquet and finish what I started
Max: Are you even listening to yourself right now
Monique: Yes, my senses are perfectly fine
Max: You don't even care about our parents feelings. What am I saying, you have always been selfish and cared only about what you wanted. Right now my mom is weeping still you are not bothered. You are surely a lost cause
He walks away leaving her screaming like crazy
Int. Palace - Night
The banquet is on and everybody is feasting having a good time
Cy: Where do you think you are going
Earl: I need to speak to the prince
Cy: This function is not for beggars. Where is your invitation?
Earl: I don't have one but please let me in. This is very important
Cy: I am sure you are not the only one who wants to meet him. So get lost from here before I use force
Walking towards the gathering is Dan and Ella
Dan: You look very wonderful tonight
Ella: Even you look good yourself. Now go along, my helper is waiting for me at the gate. I need to pick her up
Dan: Don't forget about me
She goes towards the gate and witnesses Cy taking Earl out
Early: Please I am begging you, at least give him a message to come to me
Cy: Aren't we ambitious. Who do you think you are to order me
Ella: Let him come in
Cy: But I am under strict orders
Ella: Then he will come in as my guest
Earl: Thank you very much
Amanda: I am finally here
Ella: Good, take this man. He is my guest I will come find you. I need to call Dan
Amanda: Sure
Among the crowds she searches for him and spots him
Ella: I am glad that I found you I ....
Dan: So am I, meet Mr and Mrs Ray
Mr Ray: It is my pleasure to meet you your highness
Ella: So am I. Please enjoy the party
Mrs Ray: You are truly blessed with beauty. May the both of you always be happy
Ella: Thank you. Now can I please steal him for a few minutes
Mrs Ray: We will excuse you love birds
Ella: Someone is here to see you
Dan: I hope it is important. Dad will not be happy if he can't find us
Ella: He is the one who wants to have a word with you
Earl: I will forever be greatful to your kindness my lady
Ella: Amanda follow me
They give them space to talk but on the way she goes back, hides and eavesdrop on the conversation
Earl: My name is Earl. I am your brother
Dan: You are surely mistaken. I don't have any other siblings
Earl: I am saying nothing but the truth. The man you call father is a murderer. He killed our parents, the former king and queen immediately after you were born. He then stole the crown and named himself the king, anyone who raised their voice were killed. That is why everyone is terrified of him and obeys. I was still a boy at the time, he had me taken to slave camps and since you were a newborn he raised you as his own. If you don't believe me there is a scroll at the library (runs away upon realizing someone is coming
Dan: What was that about
Ella: {It makes sense, I did think he resembled Dan, the king is surely a cruel man}
Ext. Market - Day
They are walking through
Amanda: Because of you I made precious memories. I will forever be greatful to you
Ella: I consider you a close friend of mine
Amanda: You should probably go home. We have been hanging out a lot I don't want the prince to think that I am stealing you away from him
Ella: Let him think whatever he wants. Tomorrow don't come to work, I am giving you a day off to spend with your family
Amanda: You are really a good person. That is why I have to be honest with you
Ella: You can tell me anything
Amanda: Just keep it to yourself or else the mad king might kill me. He is a very bad man, he hired me just to spy on you
Ella: Why, I am just a harmless girl. I won't kill his son
Amanda: Because he wants you to himself. He is even plotting to create a rift between you and the prince
Ella: What do you mean
Amanda: I think he is going to poison one of you. I caught him instructing some girl, he threatened to kill me and my family if I let it out
Ella: Oh no, I think I need to go home very soon. Thanks for telling me, I will keep this to myself. You have my word
