Having exited the forest, Facilier was walking straight for the castle in hope of finding some help in there. Just as he was making his way to the castle, he saw several men riding out toward him. They were all in full armor and clearly not looking for a friendly chat. Even though he was not able to fight against such odds, Dr. Facilier decided not to flee but to wait for them until they were where he stood. As the men surrounded him he looked at them as they whispered amongst one another. However, not a word was said to him.
"Good day gentleman. Would you be so kind as to tell me what you are doing here?" He asked them as his shadow started to quiver behind him.
"We are here to take you to the castle by order of our Queen." One of them said. He was dressed in complete red armor as was his horse.
"Your Queen hm? Well it would be impolite to keep her waiting then." He simply replied and allowed the men to search him through as they chained his hands and took him on another horse. They then went back to the castle.
The Queen had kept watch from her window and sighed seeing that the man her guards had managed to capture didn't put up a fight at all. She had at least expected him to punch one of them but she figured that he might have used his brain and chose to avoid a lost fight. She smiled again looking down at Snow White who was doing her daily routines around the castle. No one questioned the system and no one wondered about it. Perhaps a few men did speak about it behind her back but they never had the courage to ask it her personally why she had made such choices. A knock sounded on her door and she quickly closed her curtains and looked back toward the door.
"Come in," She said a little bit startled still as the head of the guards entered the room.
"Pardon me your majesty but we have captured the stranger. He waits for you in the throne room."
"Good," She said, "I'll be there to meet with him."
The guard closed the door again as she peeked through her curtain. Snow White had already gone back inside, but she still smiled to herself. She was still the fairest of the land.
