Most of them fled in fear of their lives, except John and Peter. Peter denied Christ three times when questioned as to his association with Christ, something he bitterly regretted. Judas, who betrayed Christ, committed suicide. After the Resurrection, however, all of the disciples saw for themselves who Jesus really was and cowardice was replaced with conviction. Most of them were to die for this rather than deny what they had seen.
They were running for their lives and hiding for fear of the Jews. And they stayed that way until Jesus resurrected and materialized in their midst within the locked room.
"...the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you." (John 20:19)
At the time of arrest, Peter cut the ear of a Roman soldier, and Jesus healed it, and urged the disciples against violence. They went into hiding, for fear of arrest by association. Peter was asked whether he was associated with Jesus, and denied it three times, just as Jesus predicted.
First they were scared and were hiding in the room .
Sad, discouraged, and Judas felt guilty enough of his betrayal to hang himself and die.
Jesus and his disciples went to a garden, and Jesus was arrested
they were really the disciples of jesus. they just denied him in fear of being arrested because they were his disciples

When Jesus was arrested,the most hard two things were: 1)that He will start a very long journey of pain and that will end with His Crucifiction. 2)that we was betrayed by one of His disciples,He knew that He will be betrayed by one of His disciples and He knew that this disciple is Judas but He also knew that His disciples will start to leave Him and that Saint Peter will start to deny Him... all these reasons were enough to make Jesus really sad when He was arrested...
they wer afraid to be arrested so they hid in a place
No matter what we read back into the gospels in hindsight, they say that the disciples clearly did not expect Jesus to be raised. Once Jesus was arrested, we are told that the disciples, to a man, distanced themselves from him. None of them went to the tomb on Sunday morning, and they expressed surprise when he appeared to them.
Jesus' disciples
The disciples present at the arrest of Jesus are not specified except for Peter, James, John, and Judas. It is likely they were all present.
They all faithly remained Jesus disciples after his death.
When He was arrested, Jesus and His disciples were in the Garden of Gethsemane (Matthew 26, Mark 14), which was on the Mount of Olives (Luke 22), across the Brook Kidron [NKJ spelling] from Jerusalem (John 18).
Jesus celebrated the Jewish Passover supper with his disciples, went to pray in the Garden of Gethsemane, and was arrested.
The theme is the last meal, the Passover meal, that Jesus shared with his disciples before being arrested.
