Chapter 4 - Chapter 3

Three days had passed after that day, the little girl and Alex, the knight, became friends.

Alex was a nice person, a very kind knight who often gave her food and helped her when someone tried to bully her.

Although the little girl was so sad, every time she thought of she could no longer watered the flowers in the garden, still she was happy because she met a new friend.

Until one day, Alex suddenly disappeared. The little girl couldn't find Alex, nor does she see him for three days.

Therefore, in boredom, the little girl walked around and explore the place she was in. Out of her knowledge, she was now in the middle of the forest.

Seeing that the sky turning into orange, the little girl decided to go back. However, from not far away from her, she heard a sound of laughter from her right.

In curiosity, the little girl followed the sound and saw a conspicuous cavern behind a huge tree.

At the same time, the little girl felt her throat dry.

She was so thirsty. Fortunately, there's a cavern here.

The little girl smiled happily and went closer to it. But, just when she was about to knocked on the wooden door, she heard a familiar voice.

A voice that she knew too well...the little girl hurriedly went to look for a hole and made a gasp.

The little girl widened here eyes. Behind the door, she saw the man named Ron, the bad guy, the person whom her teacher treated with full of respect and caution and the person who scolded her so severely that day.

Mr. Ron was happily talking to someone with a cup on his left hand.

The little girl was still a child, thus she could not understand some of the words that kept on coming out from their mouth, especially when they were talking so fast and occasionally slurred their words.

However, she was an intelligent child that even if she could only understand some of their words, still she could grasped the meaning of what the person was talking about.

Alex, almost dead, plan, kidnap, prince, tonight. Those were the words she had heard that had made her heart skip a beat in fear and worry. Unfortunately, because of her fear the little girl could not help but to step back. But what she didn't know there's a stick lying behind her.

*tick*

Suddenly, a sound of something being broken appeared in the middle of the men's laughter, and like a pause, Everyone stopped from their doing, even their breathing was also stopped.

The people, who were talking and laughing a while ago, simultaneously turned their head in an alert manner.

"Who's there?!" one of them asked with full of anger.

"Ah!" the little girl screamed in panic.

"Someone's there. Hurry up and capture that person! "

Before the people could come out from the house, the little girl had already run far away and went to the garden to hide.

Unfortunately, after setting foot on the garden, what she saw had made all of her emotions explode. Her precious flowers that she often took care off had wilted.

"No!!" the little girl screamed in sorrow, seemingly forgotten that there's still someone chasing after her.

"No, no, no. how could she do this to all of you? No, huhuhu." the little girl cried in pain while tremblingly and cautiously touched the petals that had once a petal full of color, but now it turned into a lifeless brown color.

"Alena!"
