"Come on Veleeca, your coronation is happening without you! You need to be out there like right this second!!!!" 

"I'm not ready yet Pelle, I can't get my hair right"

"All you had to do was ask, here, put these down and I'll take over"

"You're the best!" 

"The bestest friend anybody could ever have that always does them favors and gets them out of trouble and distracts the guards for you to go see that boy you find "dreamy""

"Shut up! Must you rub it in hahaha" 

"I'm only saying" 

"You're the bestest friend anybody could ever have or ask for or get stuck with"

"Thank you, compliments from the princess are much appreciated, now if only she would would take compliments back"

"Hey, don't turn this on me, you know I thank you for your enthusiasm and your efforts to make me feel confident"

"Then why don't you ever believe me? You're gorgeous and your hair looks amazing thanks to me!" 

"I just... oh wow, it does look great! Thank you Pelle!"

"You're welcome, now lets get our butts down there before they announce your name, if you don't show up then your father will be angry!"

"Good idea"

We hurried to the ceremony, there were people from all over attending to watch me be named as my father's successor to the throne. 

"It is with great honor to announce my daughter, Veleeca, as Princess of Tathos, protector of Kaln and future Queen!"

That's the last thing I really remember before everything became a blur

"Pelle, I'm so glad you're my best friend and get to be in my ceremony"

"I'm more like your handmaiden but the one you decided to keep, but I'm glad too, I cant get the sash to stay with the pin, the back, oh no I dropped it"

"Don't worry I'll pick it up"

"Pelle, what are you, why did you fall on me?" 

"Pelle?"

Blasting filled the room, intruders going at it with the guards, my father right there with them fighting. He looked at me and told me not to move, my best friend lying over me, dead, I was told not to make a sound. Father stood his ground and kept fighting, swords were drawn with blasters in the midst. The sounds of bodies dropping signaled others were dying, I could hear the screams of people not being able to escape. I wasn't sure what was going to happen, was I going to die? 

When my father returned he wiped the blood off my face and called me his sweet daughter, he apologized to me. He told me we had to go now if we had any chance of making it out, helping me up I could see Pelle had taken the blast instead of me. I didn't want to leave her but my father insisted otherwise, I told her I was so sorry as he dragged me away. We exited the hall through a hole that was caused by a small explosion. Both of us hoisted ourselves over a pile of bodies, my people, the people I, we, were supposed to protect. Running down the corridor my father pulled me out of the way of more fire, whomever it was brought another wave of attackers. 

We kept running and finally reached the launch pad where our Royal Cruiser sat waiting, starting up as we got near. Father locked the entrance behind us, he fell before we could get to the gangway. I tried helping him up but he told me to leave him, revealing a wound from the fire he pulled me out of the way from. 

"Father!"

"It's okay, it's okay, you have to go, please, get out of here and save yourself"

"I can't, I won't, not without you, please!"

"You're the only heir to this kingdom, your life is more precious than mine, you must get out safely. You're time will come to return, when you do these people will see you as the true Queen, you will lead them to a brighter future, but right now you must ensure yourself one."

"But I can't leave you"

"You have to my love, my reign is ending and it'll end with me too, go live so that you may return for your people"

After getting on the cruiser I disembarked to the sky leaving everything behind, I was only eighteen in earth years. The attackers had taken all I had and tried shooting me down, the electroblast short wired the systems navigation and eventually caused an engine to blow. In four years earth time I crashed on this planet not knowing anything or anyone. I took on the form of what is seen as an elephant here but a God on Phantor, for they had blessed me to survive. It took some time developing super strength but was able to learn better from the super heroes of Earth. Now I do what I can to fight those that oppose the good and protect Earth dwellers since I could not protect my own people. 

I eventually met Liza, the leader of the Warrior Legion and she soon offered me a place on her team she was building. If it wasn't for her I wouldn't have found a home here or have adjusted to this new life.
