"Mother what's happening? I don't want to leave father." Ciara alisema getting dragged kwa her wrist kwa her mother.
"It will be all explained later, but I need wewe to hide in the tunnels for now."
"Mother. NO! I want to stay with father."
"And then what? Be killed! wewe see if father dies wewe need to be safe. Now go." Her mother alisema as she gave her to the maid of the house.
"Make sure wewe take good care of her." Her mother alisema as she turned to leave
I will protect her with my life. Your grace." The maid alisema taking Ciara down the staircase which lead to the hidden tunnels
As the maid and Ciara leave down the tunnel Ciara starts to mumble to herself.
“I'm a big girl. I can fight along side my father in battle.”
“You stay here, I will come back with the news of the battle.” the maid alisema turning away from Ciara.
“Stay here. Stay safe. Go hide. Don't cry. Who do they think I am.” Ciara said
A few hours go kwa and Ciara soon fell asleep.
“Ciara, wake up.” the maid alisema as she gently nudged Ciara on the arm.
“What. What happened?” Ciara alisema as she slowly got up from the cold and dark ground.
“It's over. We have won the battle.” The maid alisema but with a very grim expression on her face.
“Wha...What's wrong. We won right? Were's my father?” Ciara said
“Even though we won. Your father was a brave man and he.....didn't make it.”
“NO! Thats not true. I don't believe you. Your lying!” Ciara alisema as she rushed passed the maid.
“Father! Father! Where are you?” Ciara alisema searching the court yard grounds for her loved one. That's when she noticed her mother. She was sitting in the middle of the courtyard on her knees. Crying.
Ciara slowly walked over to her mothers side.
This was the first time she has ever seen her mother cry.
“No this can not be happening.” Ciara had thought to herself
She ran into the ngome to her room rushing past all the maids and workers. Slamming her door behind her and letting her pillows soak up all her tears.
Knock-knock
“Go away.” brushing the tears off her face
Her mother slowly peaked around the door and walked in and sat on the edge of the kitanda right inayofuata to Ciara.
“It's going to be ok, Honey.” Her mother whispered in her ear.
“HOW CAN wewe SAY THAT! Fathers dead and were the only ones left to keep the kingdom!” Ciara yelled
“We have to be calm and now we have to start your training.” Her mother said
“My training?”
“Yes, as princess of Relisira wewe will need to know how to protect yourself when no one is around.”
“But i'm only10 years old. I don't know anything about fighting au protecting.”
“You will learn my daughter and wewe will become brave just like your father. Do wewe understand.”
“Yes mother. I do.” Ciara alisema as she watched her mother leave the room.

“Ok, I give up Leo. Where is that boy?”
“Ha, got you.” Leo alisema sneaking up behind Ciara holding a sword at her throat
“I'm done practicing today. I need a break.” Ciara she shrugging Leo off of her.
"It will be all explained later, but I need wewe to hide in the tunnels for now."
