Hi, I'm here with another chapter of "Lost Memories"! I finally get to type this up with no interruptions at all! In this chapter, Katherine attends the dinner she was invited to. Also, there will be a little introduction to a character. The chapter song and title is "Always There" from Lady and the Tramp 2 because there is the mention of family in the chapter.

Disclaimer: I don't own Tangled or "Always There"

Chapter 4 Always There

"Your Highness, we have something to tell you," stated the Captain as he and a few other guards approached King Henry in the dining room.

"Does it have to be now? Dinner will be here soon, and Ms. Katherine will be here any moment!" said King Henry as he looked at the door.

"Yes, it has to be now! It's urgent!" groaned the Captain. He remembered how Katherine threatened him and he really disliked her from that moment. He wished the King and Queen could find her a place to live so she could leave forever.

"What is it then Captain?" asked King Henry wanting to get this over with so he and his family along with Katherine can enjoy a nice dinner.

"Some of my men believe there is a man lurking around the palace for some reason," replied the Captain.

"A man? What could he be doing lurking around the palace?" asked King Henry as he tried to think of some reasons why someone would be doing that.

"Anything really, maybe he wants to do something like a robbery or kidnapping, maybe even murder," responded the Captain.

"Oh, I hope this man isn't after my daughter. We cannot live another eighteen years without her. Or Mr. Fitzherbert! Rapunzel would be heartbroken if something happened to him! Or my grandchildren! We just got them back! They can't disappear again! It'll break our hearts!" exclaimed King Henry as he thought of the reasons why this man was lurking around.

"We really don't know, but we'll get on to it!" declared the Captain as he tried to get his king to stop worrying about awful things that can happen to his daughter, son in-law, and his grandchildren.

Meanwhile, one of the guards, Conli, noticed Eugene who was leaning against the wall in thought. While the Captain was talking to the King, Conli inched his way over to Eugene to see why he wasn't himself.

"Mr. Fitzherbert?" asked Conli in confusion.

"Oh, hey Conli," Eugene addressed in a tone of voice that made him sound like he was in deep thought.

"Is there something wrong?" asked Conli.

"It's just…there was this woman Rapunzel and I met and she's so familiar," Eugene replied thoughtfully.

"Is she one of your ex-girlfriends?" asked Conli.

"No! She's way too old for me! I'm barely in my thirties and she's in her early fifties!" cried Eugene making Conli more nervous than he already was. "I'm sorry Conli, it's just she's so familiar like I've seen her before, but it was like in my early childhood when I actually had a mother," explained Eugene.

"So she's your mother?" asked Conli who was calming down.

"No, she died of scarlet fever when I was six. But there was another woman that helped take care of me," recalled Eugene.

"Your grandmother?" asked Conli.

"No, she died when I was four and I hardly knew the old woman," replied Eugene.

"Well, what about your aunt? Did you have an aunt?" asked Conli.

"Yes, I did! So that means…" Eugene recalled before he was interrupted by the doors opening and revealing Katherine in a beautiful green dress. She looked so beautiful; the other guards in the room stared at her like she was a beautiful diamond and they were thieves trying to steal it.

"Hey Ms. Katherine," mumbled Eugene who was still in awe at how the maids gave her a very beautiful dress like the one she wore.

"Hello Eugene," replied Katherine as she curtsied to him since he was a noble.

"Ms. Katherine, you made it!" replied Queen Anne as she entered in the room along with Rapunzel and Elizabeth and Peter.

"Hello Anne, where were you and Ms. Rapunzel?" asked Katherine.

"We had to get Elizabeth and Peter to settle down so we could go to dinner," replied Queen Anne.

"So this is Peter, the handsome young man Eugene was talking about," replied Katherine as she tapped on Peter's head.

"He sure is," chuckled Rapunzel as she picked up five year old Peter.

"Mother," groaned Peter who wasn't sure about the woman his parents had met.

"Mommy, are those guards okay?" asked Elizabeth as she indicated the guards staring at Katherine.

"They're fine; they're just admiring Ms. Katherine in her dress," replied Eugene laughing at the guards' expressions on their faces.

"Captain, can you please tell your men to stop looking at Ms. Katherine like a thief would look at a prize jewel?" asked King Henry.

"Yes sir," the Captain replied as he walked over to the other guards. "Okay, men! Quit drooling over her and get a move on! I'm probably sure you guys have girlfriends and wives who would be upset to catch you gawking at Ms. Katherine like that!" barked the Captain as he and the other men left the room leaving Rapunzel, Eugene, King Henry, Queen Anne, Elizabeth, Peter, and Katherine all by themselves.

Katherine's POV:

Dinner of course came after the Captain kicked out those young soldiers. We were able to get settled down and start dinner. I noticed Eugene was picking at his food and not eating it like everyone else. I used my spoon and took a sip of my soup that was given to me. I was interrupted by Anne.

"So Katherine, what did you do those years when you were with your nephew?" asked Anne.

"Well, I would often visit my sister and Eugene during holidays, on their birthdays, and during special occasions," I replied.

"Oh, what did he look like?" asked Anne.

"He had dark brown hair like his father, and golden-brown eyes like his mother," I recalled as I remembered what my nephew did look like the last time I saw him.

"Kind of like Peter, except his eyes are green," interjected Elizabeth. I chuckled at that because that was cute what she said.

"You mentioned his father, what was he like?" asked Henry.

"Oh, I'd rather not talk about him," I chuckled nervously. I really didn't want to even think of the man's name either!

"Come on! Tell us!" whined Elizabeth as she and Peter started saying, "Please, please, please, please, please!"

"Alright! I guess I will," I chuckled because even though I didn't want to say the subject, I can never say no to kids. "His father was a lord. He started as a kind, caring, sweet gentleman, but…" I said as I trailed off.

"But what?" questioned Rapunzel.

"Now, I don't want to say anything nasty in front of your kids but he turned to be a cheap, cruel, heartbreaking pig!" I nearly yelled as I called my nephew's father the name that I wanted to call him for years after I found out what he did.

"What's that?" asked Elizabeth. Good, she doesn't know what it means.

"I'll have your parents explain it to you when you're older," I chuckled because I really didn't want to have to explain the definition of what I just said in front of her parents.

"What did he do for you to call him that?" asked Henry.

"He broke my sister's heart by getting in an argument with her while he was drunk and isolating her and my nephew. And my sister was left without a husband and Eugene was left without a father at a very young age," I sighed as I remembered how my sister was when I visited her a week after he left.

"You know, Eugene happens to have a similar story to that. His father left him and his mother when he was only two weeks old and his father was drunk during the argument they had," explained Rapunzel. Wow! Eugene and my nephew do have similar pasts.

"What happened to your sister?" asked Anne.

"She passed away and died of scarlet fever. I don't know where my nephew is now. He could be anywhere! He was probably put in an orphanage or maybe even had to live out on the streets. It's awful that I know my nephew is probably dead or out alone still. My wish is to find him and lead him somewhere safe. To me, he is like my son rather than my nephew and I wouldn't let my son be there all alone with no one to take care of," I sighed as I finished pouring my heart out on how much I missed my nephew. I noticed something that I haven't noticed at all during my talking.

It was Eugene. He was sitting there with a shocked look on his face. I wondered why he was so shocked. Before I could think of some reasons, he spoke up.

"Um…Well, I got to uh…I got to get some work done…" he stuttered as he got up from his seat and left his untouched food on the table.

"Hey, I hope you're able to find your aunt as much as I am to find my nephew," I chuckled as I remembered him saying when I first met him that he had an aunt with the same name as me.

"Well, um…thank you Ms. Katherine…" he chuckled as he left.

Eugene's POV:

I cannot believe it! Ms. Katherine had just described her nephew and he looks like me and has the same past as me! Maybe Conli is right. This woman might be my aunt and I'm her nephew, but how can I be so sure? We're nothing alike! Maybe I should just figure out some similarities between me and her and well, if there are some similarities, I can tell her I'm related to her. I just need to keep it cool and try and find some similarities. I then remembered what I said back there about how I got to get some work done. I then noticed the papers on my desk and groaned at how much work I had to do. I think I'm just going to get the work done, and then sleep the whole thing off.

Outside the Castle:

"Yes, she's there! But how can a woman like her be there when she's nothing but a peasant?" questioned a man as he looked up and saw someone in the window that looked familiar to him going through some papers. "How on earth did that criminal, Flynn Rider, get to live in the castle?" sneered the man. "I will have him pay for what he did to my sons! And I'm going to do it with her…" snickered the man.

Sorry if this chapter isn't as exciting, but at least I sort of introduced the villain in this story. Who is this man and what does he want and what will he do? Find out in the next chapter. Here are some reply reviews:

disneyisbeautiful: Thanks for saying that, and I did kind of feel sorry for the way I made the Captain get threatened, but I'm probably sure he is not going to be surprised when he finds out who Katherine is related to.

Wheels4TheOneTrueGod: I'm glad you liked the way Queen Anne stood up for Katherine. It is extremely nice of her.

BroadwayFanGirl91: Yes, Elizabeth and Queen both have kind generous hearts and let's hope the other people Katherine meets treat her as kind as them.

It also might take a while to do the next chapter with tests, projects, concerts, and preparing for Christmas, but you never know when I might update. And if you also have any other song suggestions, be free to suggest some and I do need some because the next few chapters are going to be realizations and things similar to that. Well, that's all I have to say! Adios for now!
