Five years later
I am eating dinner with my family when my phone rings. Polly. I pick up.
-Hey.
Polly-I got the movie sequel. Want to watch it with me?
I smile and as I get up from my chair I hum considering the option.
-Maybe not, or maybe yes.
Polly-Evzen.
-Polly.
Po-Really? Are you coming or not?
-I wouldn't miss it for the world. You know I'll be there. Just hang a bit longer.
Po-Hurry up.
-Ah, don't rush. I have to look my best if I'm going.
Po-Do you have an issue for tardiness?
-Oh no, being late I can handle, but being unprepared, you know I have to look my best even to go to the yard.
Po-So you'll make me wait.
-Probably. You know how I am, one second.
I get my food and get it all on the mixer and mix it, I bet she can hear it through the phone because she laughs very loudly. I serve it and drink it down in big gulps.
-Tasty. So, how do you think it will be?
Polly-Amazing, can you use that leather jacket I love so much?
-The one which I used for the cover picture?
She makes an agreement noise and I check the jacket.
-Meh, why not? See you there.
Polly-See you there, prince charming.
I laugh but she hangs up before I can answer her. I finish washing and drying the dish I used and go get my clothes, I rush but stop just at the doorframe.
-Dad can I use your convertible?
M-Earn it.
I groan and then he throws me the keys, I catch them a bit confused.
M-Not a single scratch on it. Be back before midnight.
-I make no promises on the time but the car will be as if I never used it.
He gives me a warning look.
-I can try to be back early.
He nods and I rush away to my house. I shower and I get dressed for the meeting.

I get back down and a bit ashamed I turn to dad. He turns and I ask him to do my tie. He laughs and I get even more flustered.
M-Someone really wants to make an impression.
-Is more for me than her. She would love me either way.
M-There, is good.
I smile triumphantly before I get the leather jacket she loves so much and slide it on.
-Well, as much as it breaks my heart, but, see you.
I give a salute and storm away from the houses on the car speeding off. I get there and she's waiting for me movie in hand.
-Hey.
Po-It was so worth the wait. Come on, let's go watch the movie.
I nod and we go to her room to watch the movie alone, just us two cuddling together.

Movie
A few years have passed and the kingdom is happier with their savior and he is happy with his girlfriend at his side. He helps people and gives hope to them.
E-This is good.
Po-Yes it is. I am so lucky to have you by my side.
He gives her a short kiss before he takes her hand and steal her away to their secret place. A beautiful underground lake he made just for them. They start to get undressed as they get naked. He gets in first and then he turns to her offering his hand. She takes it and comes to his side. He gives her a kiss before he gets the both of them to the deeper on the center of the pool.
E-I love you.
Po-I love you too.
E-Stay by my side.
Po-For the rest of my life and beyond.
She blushes and turns her face away from him as he turns to give her a kiss.
E-What happened?
Po-I just, had a crazy thought.
E-Care to share it with me?
Po-Don't make fun of me for it.
E-I won't. Now tell me.
She hesitates a bit before she gets to hug him.
Po-Could you, make me, your woman?
He blushes hard at the suggestion and he clears his throat nervously.
-Is that your desire? Is that what you really want?
She nods and he tilts her head up by the chin. They both are tomato red now but he turns to kiss her deeply and as they kiss, the screen goes dark turning the next scene.
Back at the castle
At breakfast they are eating together their hands linked together tightly.
E-I love you so much.
Po-I love you too.
They share a kiss but it gets interrupted by the doors banging open. Is Dolly holding a letter.
Do-This arrived for you both.
He opens the letter and reads it aloud.
E-Savior of us, I hope you are enjoying yourself because we will be back for what is rightfully ours. Be on guard for one of you shall die soon.
Po-Who sends it?
E-It doesn't say. Who gave this to you?
Do-I just found it amongst our things and it was addressed to you so I took it. I don't know. Sorry.
E-Is fine but keep on guard. Watch your back. Trust no one until we find what this is exactly.
They all nod in agreement and dismissing it for the moment he stands and offers his arm.
E-Shall we go for a ride?
She nods eagerly and they walk together to the stables. He prepares a horse for himself and one for her. He helps her up the horse back and then he gets on his own and they ride through the crowded city together. Everyone cheers at them and they slow the pace making small talk with everyone. Everything seems calm until a masked rider appears and he turns to threaten them. He goes for the limbs just trying to immobilize them but he blocks them.
E-Everybody, get away! Go to a safer place.
The people do as they're told and he manages to hit the masked rider hard that he bleeds. The rider stays still for the moment before he shouts.
Rider-Fall back, we failed.
He gets his horse up to speed trying to get away but Evzen follows close behind in pursuit.
E-Oh no you're not, come back here.
Polly follows close behind him keeping an eye on them but soon she stops to help the people get to safety. They make turns through the streets and then he gets through an alleyway and when Evzen follows he's already gone and gotten away. He curses under his breath as he turns back to the city to check on the people.
Po-What happened?
E-He got away. I have no idea how. Is everyone fine and safe.
She nods and he let's out a sigh. As he gets down from the horse to help her an arrow pierces on his shoulder and he stumbles to the floor.
E-Ah.
Po-Evzen, what happened?
He takes the arrow out of his shoulder and he steps up and as he does a female voice bums through the crowd.
Female-So, you think you can take her for yourself. She is mine and mine alone, she must come back to where she belongs. With me at my side at her true home. Polly dear, you must come home with your family.
They look at each other confused and she helps him to his feet as they go back to the safety of the castle. The woman voice fades off but ehr words are still loud and clear on their thoughts.
For a few weeks everything is calm and life goes back to normal for everyone. They decide to take another ride by the campus and the gardens to relax a bit from all the threats they're receiving day in and day out.
Po-Take me to our place again. Is so good to be there.
-It is a very special place. And is only ours. I made some changes to it. You'll like it.
She makes a curious face and they get the horses back to the stable before they go covered in the shadows to their special place. They are happy but when they get there their happiness turn to sadness, surprise and anger.
E-What happened here?
Before they can ask anything else a grenade comes between them and the only thing they can do is get apart as he pushes her to the side to protect her from the explosion.
E-Get back!
It explodes and then a scream fills the air as she gets taken by some people and away.
Po-Evzen, help me!
E-Polly!
He clings to the back of the vehicle and he starts hitting people there as best as he can. She struggles with her captors trying to break free but they tie her up trying to keep her still and silent. They reach the city and he really is in trouble now as is easier to get rid of him. He rolls over the side of the street but he quickly turns to search for a way to catch them. He finds one and his smile turns devilishly as he gets on the bike he just found. He speeds off on the bike pursuing them. They shoot at him with every weapon they have and he manages to evade almost all of them since one or two hit on the bike's gas. He notices and throwing the bike away he jumps to the rooftops and throws knifes at them. Some hit but some don't. When he runs out of weapons he takes one from a store, a bow and arrows and he shoots some arrows with deadly precision. The last arrows he bathes it in gasoline before he turns it on fire and shoots. He hits the front making a hole on the engine. The vehicle dies down and they get out of it dragging her across with them. He frowns and he runs towards them killing everyone on his way. He breaks necks and limbs and bones as he makes his way towards the one that holds her. The guy seeing that he has lost gets a knife to her neck making him stop.
Guy-Move a muscle and she dies. Now back away slowly and let us go. She doesn't belong to you, she is not even supposed to be here on this world. This was never meant to happen, you should consider yourself lucky to even met her.
He slowly backs away and another car appears on the side. One of the guys inside hits him on the back of his head unconscious as they get ehr inside and get away.

The next time he wakes up he's back on the castle on his bed. He tries to get up but he falls over feeling weak. Dolly runs over to help him.
Do-Hey, take it easy. You lost blood there.
E-Polly?
Her expression turns sad and he knows they took her away.
Da-We did found some traces on where they took her. But now you have to rest so you can rescue her as I'm sure she's waiting for you.
He nods reluctantly and he turns to rest for now. He slides to the window and searching on his pockets he takes out a box and he opens it to reveal a diamond ring.
E-It seems this will have to wait a bit more. I promise I will find you and we will have our happy ending. We'll be together again forever and ever.
He looks at the sunset a single tear appearing on his face and as he holds the ring to his heart the image freezes and she appears in a night sky crying as well, her hands to her chest clenched tightly together and the words, to be continued, appear on screen followed by the ending credits.
Movie ends
