Royals

One

"Gwen Emerson, Queen of New Sochi." Gwen said aloud, picturing the fame and authority that came with being queen. All she needed was a prince.

She got up off the satin sheets of her regal four-poster bed, in her enormous bedroom. Walking right past her homework that had piled up, she waltzed into the parlor, where she found her father.

"Good morning, Daddy," Gwen said, curtsying gracefully.

"Oh, hello Gwen," King Anton replied happily. She walked past him and walked down the parlor, right past her study. After sitting down at the grand table, she saw her mother, reading today's news.

"Oh, good morning, Gwen. Did you see today's news?"

"Um, I haven't. Why, what did it say?"

"It says here that someone has broken through the border late last night. According to the reporters, it was a teenage boy and a teenage girl."

Gwen's eyes widened. "You know what has to happen, right? We have to find them! They could be, like, dangerous!"

"Don't worry, your father is ordering the New Sochi Border Patrol to track them down."

"Good." As Gwen finished her breakfast, she strolled out onto the terrace for a morning stroll. She dreamed of finding the perfect boy. There a few boys she knew in the palace, but they had all agreed that she was "nothing but a pretty face".

   Gwen continued with her stroll, and saw something out of the corner of her eye. She looked out into the distance, and saw an unfamiliar car driving down the road leading to the palace. She gasped, and hurried inside.
