LALISA:
Running towards my uncle with all my might and screaming to let him go before I could reach two guards came towards me to stop me from going any further while I kept repeating ''he is innocent, let him go''.
''I am sorry my lady, but we have seen him with our own eyes stealing'', said one of the guards, I looked at my uncle with eyes that pleaded him to say they were lying but he was looking at the ground with eyes filled with tears, no he wouldn't do any such thing, she just would not believe something like that no no no, and as quick as a snap of a finger her eyes changed for unbelieving to fierce even the guard had flinched at the sudden change.
she had promised herself, running here she would not let her uncle go to jail, the one person she had cared for her and the only person that cared for her, he had sacrificed so much for her, she would do everything in her power to make sure her uncle would live his old age peacefully.
''let me go with him to the palace, I shall take his punishment for him'', I said with so much fierceness the guard had let me go, I wasn't surprised by that usually ladies are supposed to sit back and watch with tears in there eyes but not this lady.
none of the other guards had stopped me and let me sit in the carriage since it was law enforced on to the land if the person wanted to take a victims punishment they could if the court thought it was appropriate to

JUNGKOOK:
I was in my study before a guard had come knocking in '' your highness, a lady requests to take an old mans place in jail'', I nodded my head and instructed to get all the court members in the courtroom, the guard nodded his head and bowed, left to do what he was instructed.
I was excited this was my first time taking care of court matters father had left me in charge before leaving to take care of other matters, I had to admit it was quite shocking to hear a lady taking the place of a man in jail this reminded me of someone working at a wood carving shop the beautiful lady had entered and left his mind unexpectedly ever since he had met her, little did he know.
I entered the courtroom with my head up high and walking with purpose, everyone got up and bowed in respect, I made my way to the high chair in the center of the room and requested everyone to be seated after everyone one was seated, the guards brought in a lady whose head was down and her hair covering her face and an old man with a tear stained face everyone waited to see who dared to take someone's place in jail when the guard told her to face up when she did a gasp left me, and everyone stared I quikally straigtened my self and cleared my trought, and spoke in a clear voice '' why do you wish to take this mans place'' gestuaring to the old man beside her, '' he has no business in jail whatever he did was for me'', she said in a voice so broken I almost wanted to forgive the man, I now spoke directly to the guard who had captured the old man '' what has this man done'', '' he was caught stealing medicine, your highness''.
I knew something like that could not be forgiven medicine was made with a lot of hard work and theft of that can not be forgiven, the courtroom was filled with chitter-chatter I waved a hand to silence everyone, ''jail is no place for a lady'' I said directed at the lady in front of me she replied with venom in her voice '' neither is it a place for an old man '', that comment was enough to set the courtroom with whispers once again.
a lot of them raised their eyebrows on the comment, many of them envied her bravery everyone knew jail was not such a bright place.
I waved my hands to the guards, the understood my signal and took lalisa and the old man out of the room.
I wasn't so excited anymore.
'' what is everyone's take on this matter'', a bunch of people started getting up and pointing out their opinions one I heard constantly was, she is just a fragile lady, but that was overruled with her own comment, he is an old man and sending him too jail would be awful, but I couldn't bring myself to send the lady to jail, but it had to be done she has proved she is more than just a dainty lady, she would be fine, or at least I prayed.
