(Charlotte POV)
I walked into the hall where the feast was being held. I was late; it took me a long time to build up the courage to enter, as I didn't want to be reminded of my parents as the grief was hard for me.
I walked in and Arthur saw me and gestured for me to sit by him. I walked over and he politely pulled the chair out for me. I was surprised; I didn't think the king would be a gentleman.
(Time Skip – 1hour))
I had been at the feast for about an hour now, yes it did bring up memories, but they weren't as hard to handle as I thought they were going to be.
"Are you enjoying the feast Charlotte?" Arthur asked. I turned to look at him. In truth I was enjoying the feast…a lot more than I thought I would.
"The food's a lot nicer than I thought it was going to be," I joked. He laughed.
I saw Merlin – Arthur's man-servant – out the corner of my eye quickly and hastily stand up and nearly run out of the room. It got me thinking, with the expression on his face, was it out of fear? Or were my feelings of a memorable night not going to be a good memory, but a bad one? "Excuse me, my lord," I said to Arthur. He just nodded and I left the hall to make sure my gut feeling of something terrible happening, confirmed by Merlin's expression, wasn't going to come true.
When I exited the hall, I couldn't see Merlin anywhere, so I walked straight down the corridor, on my way to Gauis's chambers, as I knew that was where Merlin lived.
On my way down there, I had that feeling. The feeling that you're being watched, by someone…something. I slowly turned around on the corridor, and then I pulled the sword that was hung against the wall off of the wall, to me. Just in case. Then my headache came back, much stronger than before, so strong it nearly knocked me to me knees. But I stood my ground. That was when I saw him.
Him. The same man that tried to kill the king earlier was standing at the end of the corridor watching me. I felt dizzy, faint, and then I realised someone must have slipped something into my drink, to know that I would be an easy target to take on when I could barely walk. I had fallen to one of my knees now, when I was roughly pulled back to my feet. My vision was going blurry but I still noticed it was the man that now had a strong grip on my arm. I knew there was not much I could do, so I prayed to some God somewhere, that hopefully someone would hear me.
And I screamed….
(Arthur's POV)
I was just watching the feast's entertainment, when my mind couldn't help but wonder why Charlotte left the feast. I assumed it was probably because she had too many memories of her own kingdom's feasts, but she didn't appear sad when she left. She appeared…frightened? I'm not really sure; I just hoped she was ok. I was just about to ask Guinevere to check if she was ok in her chambers, when I heard the most ear-piercing, heart-clenching scream from out of the hall. I stood up quickly, grabbing my sword, and fled out of the room in search of where the scream came from. My knights followed me. The warning bell was ringing as myself and the rest of my knights, sprinted down the corridor in search of the screamer. I knew deep in my heart that it was Charlotte that screamed; I recognised the pain and terror in it, which only gave me strength to move faster. I reached a corridor then, with a sight that slowed me down. On the floor was a sword that I swore had once been hung on the wall, and next to it a shawl, one that Charlotte had worn over her dress this evening.
And that was when I was certain it was her that had been taken.
I ordered a search of the castle immediately, ordering guards to not let anybody in, or out of the village. I just hoped we'd get to her in time.
