[Book 1] Sofia The First: Once Upon A Princess

It's Official

Ms. Clare and the other 3 girls sat with the royal family to explain Leona's backstory.

Ms. Clare took a deep breath and looked at the royals, "I won't go into full detail but it all started when she ran in here just last year" she said.

"Why would she ran here? did she come from another kingdom?" Garrick asked

"She did say when she arrived here is that she came from the Kingdom of Musutafu" Violet replied

"The Japanese kingdom?" Axel asked

"Yeah, she was born there" Violet replied

"Can you tell more of her story?" King Garrick asked Ms. Clare who shook her head

"I'm sorry King Garrick, but it's not my place to say the whole story" Ms. Clare said, "Besides, she still didn't trust us to tell us her full story" she added

"The only thing she told us is that she was abused her whole life" Carol said

The word 'abused' made the royal family horrified and upset

"That's horrible..." Samira mumbled

"If it's okay with you, we'll tell you some things about her" Ms. Clare added as she looked to the 3 girls who agreed.

"Of course, anything you know, so we'll also know what to do" Garrick replied

Ms. Clare smiled to the royals, "She doesn't have or know who her real parents are so it's a little difficult to know her last name" she stated.

"Well then who took care of her" Hugo asked in curiosity.

"She only told us that her 'master' was the one who took care of her ever since she was born" Violet said, "Not only that, we all think that so-called master is the reason why Leona's depressed looking." she added

"Also, her psyche is a bit damaged, er...damaged heavily so she needs to drink her medine at the right times or when her headache starts" Sasha added

"Sometimes she wouldn't eat anything for 3 days, she would just stay in her room and lock herself out" Carol continued.

"And not only that, we never get to see her smile or have fun ever since she came here" Sasha said, "she's just...quiet" she finished.

Those statements shocked the royal family. They all felt bad for Leona because of her rough childhood.

"Where did she lived before she came here?" Samira asked.

"She only said that she lived in some kind of laboratory but she didn't tell us the name" Ms. Clare replied tears started to form in her eyes

King Garrick is relieved, "Well I'm greatful she's safe and sound thanks to you, Ms. Clare" he said.

Ms. Clare and the 3 girls smiled to King Garrick's compliment. Just then Leona came out of the kitchen with a wooden serving trolley with food as she walked towards the royal family.

"I hope you're all having a good time here your majesties, I made some meals here in case you all are hungry" She said, "Please eat as many as you like" Leona added.

She left the tray as she walk towards her room, but she felt a sharp pain on her head causing her to hold onto the wall to balance herself up, this made everyone worried as Violet and Carol helped her walk to her room.

"Did you forget to drink your medicine again?" Violet asked raising an eyebrow.

Leona looked at her and replied, "maybe" she answered

"I'll get her medicine" Carol said as she went to the kitchen. Violet escorted Leona to her room leaving everyone worried.

"I hope she's okay" Queen Samira hoped, "I guess it's an effect of what she's been through..." she added
