After an hour of mum fussing over me, 8's giving us glares,Nona giving me a headache with her constant chatter about the princes and the palace and how the Queen was so pretty. Mum and Nona were gushing about the queen when it was time too fill out the forms before the photo, a very skinny and gang-ally man in a posh black suit on came over, as he sat down he pushed his glasses up from his nose, he could of being quite handsome if it wasn't for the permanent snooty smirk on his face, "uh...um miss Nona and Lorelei Mcfee?" We both nodded, he cleared his throat making a horrible retching sound, i felt myself inwardly crindge, he passed us two sheets which we both filled out- it consisted of questions about us hobbies,likes,dislikes,family,talents,fears and capti.
Once i had filled it out i pushed my sheet towards retcher he looked at the paper then passed it back, "uh miss Nona?" "Lorelei!" "Uh yeah okay. You need too answer the questions on the back" i grabbed the paper from him and turned it over, low and behold there was 3 questions:
Are you a virgin?
Have u being In a relationship in the last year?
Have you any relation too somebody in the castle (lady etiam's included) ?
(Eg.Guard,maid,cook)
I had too re-read the question 5 times before it finally sunk in, i quickly filled it in and pushed it forward my cheeks blazing.Nona following suit.'FLASH!'The camera momentarily blinds me, as i stood there being flashed at. one man whispers too the camera man they both nod and then a kind, posh voice speaks out from the flash "lady Nona, please can you come over so we can take a picture with both of you in it?" Nona walks over too me with a bright giddy smile, we stand next to each other, after that we begin too pose, by the end of it were all laughing.
Todays the day...oh god...what if iam chosen?...does it mean i have a chance? I begin too pace the room my face resed with stress,Nona walks in her face equally as stressed out, and motions towards the door...it was time too go to province square, i gulp,straighten my plain white blouse and pat down my brown skirt, Nona in the same outfit-each province has its own outfit for the selection.we walk towards the gaggle of people all different ages,sizes,looks but all in the same outfit, a tie all holding us together yet holding us back. Suddenly,a screeching sound echoes around the square, people covering their ears and looking around for a source, Roman Garfield the famous tv presenter stands there in a dashing blue suit with matching hair, and a blazing red face, "um...sorry...testing...1..2..3..1..1..2..2..3..3!?" Somebody quickly runs up too him whispers too him and is gone in a bat of the eye, the cameras zoom into him on the raised platform set up earlier that day.
He turns to the camera a million dollar smile blazing on his face, "heelllooooo,Etiam. Today i am in province 7 ready too give four girls a chance too be princess of Etiam!!!" The crowd of girls cheer and some faint, he turns towards us and frantically waves at us too quiet down, his blue wig tottering dangerously on his egg head-rumour is he burnt his real hair off using a match too light his own fire because his maid was off ill.
"Etiam i present the first 7 too be selected...Lady Sprita Albroda!!" A small girl with a pixie face and short cut blonde hair skips up onto the stage, she would be exquisite if it was t for the dark puckered scars on her pretty face and arm that ran the length of her left side, "second is...Bianca Langlois" i made a small clap for the girl i new her from school but i wouldn't call her a close friend, she was tall, skinny and pale, with long black hair, she was mysteriously pretty, "third is...Lorelei Mcfee" it took me about 10seconds too realise as i repeated the words in my head...ME...they chose me!!!, i look at Nona sadness in her eyes but she was smiling and squealing, mum pushed me forward, i stepped the onto stage and exchanged a few small hello's with Bianca and Sprita, "fourth is...Nona Mcfee!" I looked too where Nona was standing her face pale, completely stunned, mum next too her wiping away tears of joy, but many people shouted out 'thats unfair'...'what about me?!'... Other people just weeped, or stood there emotionlessly staring at Roman. I smiled at Nona as she stood next too me her hand entwined with mine. "Well thats it for province 7 lets speak too the girls!!!" The crowd stayed silent, Bianca was mysterious and quite certain she was going too win, Sprita was quite loud but wasn't that confident in herself, next was me and Nona, Roman asked us a lot of questions about us being twins and how it must be, but we only answered in short sentences so it didn't last long. "Know were going too split them into two groups depending on which prince they most suit...but the princes can switch girls around!" I gulp this is the part i dreaded the most, "the crown prince Jameson,Argentum and The Royal prince leighton,Arum!" This is the first year the royal family has done twin princes selection at the same time. "Argentum...Sprita and Nona!!" I look at Nona sad we wont be in the same group,"Arum...Bianca and Lorelei!!" I send a small smile at Bianca, she returns it.They quickly usher us off too the cars people screaming our names, already decided on who too vote for, nobody calls either mine or Nona's names, they probably feel cheated out of their time. After a good 7hour drive we arrive in the middle of the Dux province, a massive white castle looms ahead, its turrets reaching for the sky and the gardens jumping with life and the guards surrounding it in blood red uniforms with gold trims, but most of all is the massive lake the palace seems too loom over in all its glory!
I have never seen anything so beautiful,i am momentarily breathless!
We pull up at the big grand doors that are flanked by 4 guards poised like statues, each as grand as the other, a woman stands by the door in a black business suit and a clipboard, she rushes up too the car and helps us out "hello lady's i am Cynthia and i will be your mentor and supervisor join your stay at the palace" she smiled down at us and reads out our names, ticking us off as she went, she quickly hurried us in, i would forever remember the sight before me...
