Men: Thank you, your majesty

King: Remember your families are dependant on your. You have to come back alive, this is an order

Men: We receive your order

Captain: We are now a team, I hope we will work together efficiently and won't do anything that will jeopardize this. Do you understand

Men: Yes sir

Captain: Let's go out (they go out)

King: I am hoping for some positive feedback. Do you want to have a drink with me before heading home?

Mr Cue: Not only a drink, and food also. My wife is punishing me

King: The best way is to apologize and make her feel that she is right. Soon she will be cooking for you

Mr Cue: How I wish she was easy to win over

Int. Palace - Throne room - night

Stella arrives to find her mother playing a traditional musical instrument, she also joins her and they play together

Queen: (she looks at her and smiles) Together we make a perfect harmony. I am glad you found time to learn. Not only that, you didn't even drink alcohol today. How I wish everyday was your birthday

Stella: Should I try being the obedient daughter?

Queen: Open this

Stella: This is the stuff I would never put on

Queen: Happy birthday! This is the first gift that me and your dad got for you. It's a family heirloom, make sure to never lose it. Times are changing, who knows you might sit on that throne someday

Stella: Not my kind of thing. Instead I will make sure that Junior becomes the best king to ever sit on that throne. As for me, I want to live my life to the fullest and not worry about a thing. I was born to be carefree

Queen: You can still be carefree as long as you fulfill your responsibilities as the princess of this kingdom

Stella: Stop saying that, you make it sound like a storm is coming

Queen: I am just saying I want you to be safe and healthy. No matter what challenge comes your way always trust yourself. Now go

Int. Palace - Stella's room- Night

She realizes that someone is in there

Stella: Who is there? Junior! What are you doing here

Junior: Shhh!

Stella: Shouldn't you be fast asleep, if mom finds out you will be in trouble

Junior: Don't Tell mom, I will buy you my favorite sweets. I can't seem to fall as

Stella: Come, let me take you to bed

She piggybacks him to his room and tugs him on his bed

Junior: Sister? Do you think I will make a great king

Stella: Where is this coming from

Junior: I am very timid, not strong and not good and commanding people

Stella: You are too small to be thinking about such things. Give it time and I promise you will be the best. Besides you are very smart

Junior: Really?

Stella: With me around nobody will dare to bully you. Now go to bed, I am very exhausted and want to sleep

She exit his room when she bumps into the king

King: Quietly follow me

Stella: But it's late, I want to go to bed

King: That is shocking for someone who comes very late every day

Stella: You must be happy after taunting me father

King: What can a helpless father like me do. Take this

Stella; A sword?! Are you thinking of killing me tonight or is it a way of saying that you wish I was not born since it's my birthday today

King: Shut up and fight me

They engage in a fiece sword fight

Stella: Father, what is wrong with you

King: Why don't you just strike me and let's end it here. I am tired of all the embarrassing stuff you do all the time. Why can't you be a decent young lady

Stella: Father

He drops the sword, takes out an ointment and walks towards

King: You are hurt, your hand is bleeding

Stella: I am fine

King: Who dares to defile my land? I will kill all of you today

Cy: Stop! That will not be happening today. Drop that sword or I slice their throats

Cy: What a crazy queen. What should we do with them?

Mike: Kill them, I want their heads

Junior: Mom, I am scared. Please don't hurt my mom

Mike: Shut up (he takes his sword and strikes)

Junior: Mom!

Stella: Mom! Dad!

Mike: (looks up and sees her) Go and get her

Cy: What do I do with the kid, should I also kill him

Mike: Let him live, the king said to take some slaves. He is just a kid anyway, there is nothing he can do except to cry. Gather all the treasures and let's go from here
