The plan was in order. Everyone sat in silence as they pondered their
futures. Suddenly, Zular stood up and grasped everyone's attentions. "It has come to my attention that all of us stand to gain something from this murder," Zular said calmly. "For some, it is obvious. Sarlo and I want the power that comes from the death of a King. Constance's life is in the hands of the King, and she looks to break the shackles...figuratively, of course." Everyone began looking at Fred. "There's one thing I don't understand though," Zular said, while staring intently through the window. "What do you, dear Frederigo, stand to gain?" "Simple." Fred responded. "My life." "Speak honestly, boy!" Zular exclaimed while moving towards Fred in a frantic rage. "You want the power. You cover it up as if you do it for the good of your family, but that's garbage. You want to live the life of a King as much as any of us here." "Enough, Zular!" Sarlo yelled, standing up quickly. "Shut up, old man! This doesn't concern you!" Zular bit back. Zular grabbed Fred by the collar and yelled into his face, "Announce your true intentions or you shall taste my blade before the night is through!" Fred pushed Zular to the ground and said calmly, "You have taken the lives of my family at knifepoint. I have already tasted your blade, and I intend to remove it with this operation. I do this for my family and no one else, and if you don't believe that then this operation never stood a chance in the first place. Now, make your decision. Do you intend to go through with this as planned?" Fred extended an arm to help Zular up.
