(Hilda is in her room upstairs from hers and Harper's little house from the downstairs that have stairs on both sides of the room inside the castle. She picks up her dress and puts it on her body imagining herself inside the dress. Suddenly she has a flashback of a woman getting tortured while hanging on chains on the wall but quickly the memory disappears Hilda accidently dropped the dress on the floor when she got scared and looked at the mirror. She has a horrified expression on her face)

Hilda: I wonder why I keep getting those flashbacks... maybe some type of trigger... (she shakes her head closes her eyes and opens them back) No matter. Cant dwell on it now.

(She puts the dress on her, grabs strands of her hair to tie back with a ponytail, and puts on light make up. Only mascara and lip stick. She has no other make up other than that. She goes into her closet to grab her shoes but to her dismay, they look ragged and old)

(What does the inside of Hilda and Harper's little house inside the castle look like? It is a small solar mini house on the lower deck of the castle for the workers who are inside workers, while some sleep in their houses when not working at the castle, some like Hilda and Harper live in a solar house. Inside their solar house is opposite because it's more of a poor situated solar house. Their bed sheets are light so if they want to stay warm they will have to rely on the blankets to keep them warm should they get cold at night or in the morning. It has two regular beds and not the fancy beds the royalty uses. On each small staircase has their rooms on each side and when they go down the stairs there is a small work desk in the middle of the room,and a door that locates to the bathroom. if they want to go and eat drink water or cook they have to go to the main hall. The kitchen is located opposite of the main hall. It has a time limit when it closes and you need the keys to go inside. If you're considered a servant you will not get the kitchen keys. Because they are considered lowly servants they are not allowed to eat or cook in their rooms, should they wish to eat or cook they have to eat and cook in the opposite kitchen and eat in the main hall. They are from the village of Electus where Castle Electus remains. The highest prestigious village in all of Albion)

Hilda: (she sighs in exasperation) Great. If it's not one thing it's another. I can't wear these. They look old. I have to make a good impression for the ball tonight. (She continues looking in her closet she sighs) I guess I'll have to go with my maid shoes. I'm sure they won't notice.

(She grabs the maid shoes and puts them on her feet looking down hoping the shoes are not noticeable to the other royalty families who could come for the princess's party tonight)

Hilda: Guess I'll have to manage. Let's see.

(She makes sure she has everything but the dress is falling off and the strings on the back are coming apart)

Oh no. I need Harper.

(She goes out the door to see if Harper is still inside their little house)

Harper! Harper!

(Harper comes out from his bedroom on the other right side of the stairs getting himself ready to serve the royalty tonight)

Harper: You call my name?

Hilda: I need your help.

Harper: With what?

Hilda: Look I know you're mad at me, but I need you to help me with my dress.

Harper: ....

Hilda: Just come into my room.

(He shrugs and goes to Hilda's room and sees her in the pink and white ball gown dress he sees the back is not properly straightened out)

Harper: Say no more. Turn around.

(Hilda turns around and Harper gives her a headsup)

Harper: Breathe in.

(She breathes inside and Harper ties the back of the dress for her as tight as he possibly can and after he is done wrapping the strings, he gives her a signal he is done)

Harper: you ok? Can you breathe?

Hilda: I'm fine.

(She let's out a shaky breath)

Harper: I wouldn't be afraid if I were you. And I'm not mad at you, Hilda. I just don't want you to be humiliated at this ball. It sounds so ludicrous.

Hilda: I can take care of myself, Harper.

Harper: I know. I just worry for you is all.

Hilda: And I appreciate it. But please don't. I'm very independent.

Harper: Well, If you say so. Let's get going. I have to be in the kitchen and you have to be in the main hall of the ball.

(Hilda grabs the last of her things, and makes last minute checks she finally closes the door behind her and goes down the stairs from the left side of her, Harper follows, and they both go down to where they have to go. Harper in the kitchen and Hilda in the main hall of the party. Hilda looks around and sees everyone from the all kinds of towns that lie in the country of Albion. Royal families drinking champagne, laughing to themselves. She sees Bea in her dress. A white dress that is flat on the bottom and not so big. She has her hair up in one of those beauty buns for royalty. Bea goes up to Hilda in a smiling way and notices shes wearing the dress she showed her in her bedroom)
Bea: Oh my gosh Hilda! Thank you for coming to my party.

Hilda: Of course.

Bea: That dress looks so beautiful on you. Better than what I look inside it.

Hilda: Well the dress you have now is beautiful too. It brings out your porcelain complexion.

(Bea chuckles in an admiring way)

Bea: Aren't you sweet. But really, please enjoy the party. We have bubbly (Champagne,Alcohol, cocktail etc.) We have horderves, shrimp,and there's the dessert table over there so help yourself.

Hilda; Thank you.

(Bea smiles at Hilda. Then her name is called)

Bea: Ugh. Duty calls. I have to go. See you at the dining table later.

(Hilda sees Bea leave back to chatting to royalty as it is her job to introduce herself to people she barely knows from other towns and cities. But she blends and manages anyways)

(Hilda stands around staring into space at the men and women in fancy tuxedos and fancy ball dresses she wasnt used to being somewhere here where she didnt belong. A butler with a gray circular platter comes over to her)

Butler: Could I get you anything ma'am?

Hilda: Could I just have a glass of water? I'm feeling parched.

Butler: Coming right up.

(It felt like a few moments have passed and Hilda continues dozing off into space rarely interacting with the royalty and not saying anything as to not say something that could diminish Bea's families name then the butler comes and hands her her water and she takes it. She thanks the butler and he goes about his business serving other people too)

(Hilda turns her back for a second drinking the glass of water and when she turns around she sees a woman standing before her in one of those poofy dresses. A black one. The woman appeared to be at least forty years old)

Woman: Hello. I don't believe we have met. I am Elora queen of Gallatine. and who might you be?

Hilda: I am Hilda.

Elora: And Hilda, what are you to the princess and her family?

Hilda: I am uh... (she can't exactly say she's a serving girl so she has to make up a title for herself) I am the king and queen's assistant.

Elora: Like a servant?

Hilda: (thinking) Was it that obvious? *the woman* No. I take care of the papers,Events,the gatherings.

Elora: I see. Well I must say, your job title sounds important. Did you make the party yourself?

Hilda: (she lies) I helped some. Not alot. The decorator had this idea of the decorations and the party.

Elora: I see. (She looks Hilda up and down at her dress) I hope you don't take offense, but might I say that your dress is but a but shoddy? I'm not saying it doesn't look good on you, its just that it doesn't look good itself.

Hilda: I think it's a magnificent dress,not nearly as extravagent as the princess's dress but it is a nice one.

Elora: I suppose so.

(Harper comes up behind Hilda with a smile in his face)

Harper: Excuse me,miss. I was wondering if I can borrow Hilda for a few minutes. Some last minute work to do I have to ask.

Elora: Of course. I have other business to attend to. Goodbye now.

(The lady walks away and Harper takes Hilda with him walking)

Hilda: How long were you standing there for?

Harper: Long enough to hear she implied your dress is not that nice.

Hilda: Are you following me?

Harper: No, I unintentionally needed to move some food and I came up to you to say hi, but seems someone was talking to you while I was doing so.

(Harper's name is called)

Harper: Duty calls.

(Harper goes away from Hilda)

Hilda: I need some air.

(She goes outside on the balcony where two people go back inside leaving her by herself she looks out the starry night sky feeling a bit of happiness as she is doing so)

(She looks down from the balcony seeing a knight she doesn't recognize having a private discussion with another knight whom she recognizes they are seen carrying boxes)

(She goes to see them enter the main hall but secretly go somewhere else to one of the rooms far away from the main area she goes to the walls and eavesdrops on their conversation remaining unhidden)

Stranger: You sure tonight is the night?

Knight 14: It would appear so.

Stranger: If you fail me, I will hunt you down and gut you like a deer. You better not disappoint me.

Knight 14: understandable. Absolutely got it.

(Hilda whispering to herself) hilda: What are they talking about?

(They both walk together to a secret room where no one will hear them they leave boxes outside while Hilda hears a door close while they have a discussion)

(She rummages through the boxes and find they have been tampered with. What was inside the box was wine glass,the broken chandelier,and worse. A small bottle that appears to have an odd liquid color Hilda gets a sniff of it)

Hilda: Nothing... what are they planning?

(she goes ahead to put the stuff back before she gets in trouble or one of them walks out and sees her she walks back to the party and sees everyone in a crowd awaiting for seating)

King Yzair: Alright everyone. I would like to make a toast. To my wife,my son, and my daughter.

(He raises his wine glass)

(Hilda isn't sure if she should warn him to put the glass down but after he sips his wine glass after he raises it, he seems fine)

King Yzair: I am very proud of the young woman you are becoming Beatrix. You are an incredible example all of us should be following. You are courageous,Strong,and have a lot of love in your heart. As you all may know, I am the youngest of four boys. And I thought to myself I want to have another son. And I ended up getting a daughter instead. I never knew how much love I have for my little girl. I never knew that during my years as a father that I would develop a love so bonding for my daughter that it comes out stronger than ever. It really is a blessing feeling having to experience something like that. Darling, Lucinda would you like to say something on behalf of our daughter?

Lucinda: Beatrix, when God chose me to be your mother, I was beyond blessed and beyond scared, because I didn't know how I would make this work. But I knew that I would be guided not just by the people in this kingdom, but to my dear husband as well. Beatrix, you have become a remarkable strong woman. And I am very proud to call you my daughter. You're not just my daughter, you are my sunshine, darling. And I will always love you no matter what. Your father and I did a good job raising you and your brother.

(Bea smiles at the words of kindness from her parents as tears come out of her eyes,not from sadness but from happiness to hear them accomplish her in her years)

King Yzair: You are twenty three years old. And I must say, time went by so fast for us. But no matter what, you will always be my little girl. No matter what happens. To Beatrix Curran, Electus's Princess, and the future queen of Albion.

Queen Lucinda: Long live the future queen.

(Everyone especially Hilda raises their glass to celebrate Princess Bea's celebration)

Everyone in unision: Long live the future queen.

(Everyone but Hilda takes a small sip of their drinks and Harper comes to the long table of the guests)

Harper: anybody want more Bubbly?

Man: Bring it here, son.

(He brings the man some more champagne and all the other guests want some too he goes to the other guests to give them some bubbly)

(Suddenly, the lights switch off and the guests leave out a gasp suddenly their fun is over)

Lucinda: What's going on?

King Yzair: I have no clue.

Harper: I'll go check it out.

Hilda: I'll come with you.

Harper: No. Stay with the guests I'll be right back.

(He goes on over to the electricity room to check what happened)

(Hilda looks around to see what she could do to help then she notices a dark figure creeping around In the back of the doors of the main dining hall she goes to follow the dark figure and she sees him pulling out something in the shadow, A weapon of sorts)

(Hilda goes over to Princess Bea)

Hilda: We need the knights. We have an unwelcome visitor. An intruder.

Princess Bea: Are you sure?

Hilda: Yes, please we need to go get them.

(Everyone starts screaming as fight sounds are being heard. Hilda can hear the thuds of people falling to the ground and can feel liquid seeping on her shoes)

Princess Bea: Tristan, go get your men. (She says in a panic voice) we're being attacked!

Tristan: I know where they are!

(He goes to Hilda)

Prince Tristan: Look after my sister,mother and father. Don't let anything happen to them.

Hilda: Of course.

(Tristan goes to find his knights and Hilda and Bea go over to Yzair and Lucinda)
