"come join us" the Princess said with a smile.

"Mmh" prince Ericson replied.

"Rami, do you know her"

"What are you saying, how will I know the Princess, am an orphan"

"How will I know, your Expression show it"

The Princess wave at them to come,"she is calling us, let go" prince Ericson said.

"Take the rice, feed them to the people over them"

"Yes, princess Aurora" they replied taking the bowl of rice from her.

Dara move to the left hand side while prince Ericson follow the opposite side, he keep on glancing at the Princess as he is sharing the food, "my son, thank you"

"You should thank the Princess not me" he replied to the woman sitting with her son.

He was about to turn as his leg hit a large stone and he fell down which attach a lot of attention.

He stand up,"am okay" he said then he look at his hand, blood was coming out.

Dara notice it about to go to him but the princess reach her best friend on time. She just watch as the princess hold prince Ericson hand.

Luna run to them,"sister Kitana, he is breeding"

Sister Kitana!! am only one that call her that?

"Luna, bring me my medicine box"

"Yes, sister Kitana" she said and run off.

"Luna is like a sister to me, I met her seven years ago in here, she was just a little girl that has no parents and need help. I pick her up and took care of her. She remind me of Rana" she paused and shake her head.

"Sister Kitana, this is your medicine box"

"Thank you, Luna, go and feed them"

"Okay, sister Kitana" she said and run off.

She used her white face towel to clean the blood out of the wound,"are you okay?"

Prince Ericson nods then she smile at him. She place a green leaf that had been broke into pieces, apply it on prince Ericson wound. He close his eyes and make a sound.

"Am sorry, this medicine hurt so much" then blow air into the injury to ease the pain. prince Ericson open his eyes as his gaze focus on his sister. She pull out the red ribbon from her hair to tied the wound.

"That stare" Dara murmured.

"next time, watch where you're going" she said as the Princess bring out a yellow flowering paper and look up to meet prince Ericson eyes then smile.

"Thank you" prince Ericson said.

"You're welcome" she replied, "come to Drew-dom academy, this is my invitation to you" giving it to him.

"Thank you, princess Aurora" he said while the princess smile at him before walking toward Luna.

"Rami, you are in love with the princess"

"What! Don't be silly, she is my.." he swallow his words, "You're right, I like the Princess" he lied.

"I know it, the way you look at Princess Aurora show it. Should I tell her about your feeling toward her" Dara teased.

"Don't, I will tell her myself" he grinned as he walk out of the compound.

"Wait for me" she scream while running to catch up with him.

Princess Aurora glance at him as he is leaving,"sister Kitana, is anything wrong?"

"He remind me of someone"

"Prince Ericson?"

She nods "he behave like him too"

Prince Ericson and Dara enter the compound, Amo is standing waiting for them, "do you compete your task?"

"No Master, princess Aurora feed all the needy in the village and she gave me an invitaion to train in Drew-dom academy"

"What!" Amo smiled, "am proud of you, finally someone from Jo clan will school there"

"Master, I was given a invitaion too"

"I, also" giving their invitation to Amo.

"Three of you had accepted this invitation by taking it. I will make the arrangements for your journey"

Dara glance at them as her father praise them, it was her dream to school in Drew-dom academy but didn't get it because of her Fate. With a heavy heart, she live their presence.

A voice called unto her, she stop and turn her gaze to him, "I know you're sad, I will solve it. Come with me" he said as he grab her hand and she follow.

Dara don't understand what Thao is about to do. As her gaze is on him.

He let go of her hand and walk to Amo,"Master, why give my invitation to someone that need it"

"What are you talking about Theo?"

"I want to stay with all of you, I don't want to leave here"

"I understand, who do you want to give your invitation to?"

He glance at Dara then pointed at her,"what are you saying? She is a girl"

"I know Master but it has always been her dream to go to Drew-dom academy"

"It is forbidden for a girl to attend the academy"

"She should go in, as disguise" Prince Ericson said.

"It is dangerous, I won't risk my daughter life"

"Please father, I will be careful, I will take Theo name and his identity"

"I am your father and I make the decision here."

Tears run down Dara eyes as she run into her room and lock the door.

"Please, for the sake of her dream, let her go" Prince Ericson said.

"It is risky, she is my only child, I don't want to lose her"

"I understand, she is a strong girl, she want to bring smile to you and Jo clan. This village has suffer so much insult from other villages and Dara want to change that. I will protect her and bring the victory together with Dara to Jo clan"
