The princess takes  deep breath.. Then "SNAP!" went to the princess's finger, and "BOOM" a third door reveals. The audience gets excited and the princess ponder's about the third door. "What just happened?" said the peasant. The peasant still goes with the door on the right. When the door on the right opened, there was nothing in it. Everyone is puzzled.. He opens the door and walks in. A man was sitting in the chair. He had a bald head, white beard, and very slim. He says talking over the boo's of the audience " 30 seconds, outside. So he walks outside and saw something gliding in the air. "Its a plane!" says the peasant, and a rope attached to it hanging down for him to grab. The plane passing right by the arena gets caught on a pillar and other debris. It pulls the plane down, heading directly toward the peasant. Then "BAM" a cloud of dust from the dirt of the arena poofs up into the air. The Princess scream's in fear. The dust settled down and saw the remains of him. His head was 20 feet away from his body. The all of a sudden "RAWR!" "The tiger is loose!" The Audience runs away and the King losses his footing and falls over into the arena. The tiger charges as the king runs for his life. The Tiger catches the King and eats him limb from limb.  A day later the princess gets greeted by the same guy in the chair. "Who are you?" says the princess? I am Fred, I work for the Chinese government. "Did you cause this?" No, i did not. We sent him here to kill your father, The King. "Why?" said the princess... Well your father has committed multiple crimes in China. Since we cannot arrest him because he is he committed crimes in other countries we simply sent him to kill him. It many have not seem as he killed him but this was all planned. We did it like this cause it had to seem like a accident or we would get caught. "So he didnt love me?"
