I stepped back and nearly fainted.

"You got the wrong idea" I explained. "I'm not a Princess"

"Yes you are. You removed my seal." He seemed happy yet surprised. On his right arm, a symbol glowed. "I am the Knight of the Wind"

"I'm not a Princess. You must've mistaken me for someone else."

"I am certain that you are the Princess." he said and sheathed his sword. "The Prince must hear about this."

We walked for a few minutes and we finally reached the end of the forest. There was a horse waiting.

While traveling, he told me what had happened to the Kingdom. He also told me that everyone was waiting for my arrival. His name was Lance, currently serving as a Knight in the castle.

After a short time, we arrived in a village. And pierced my heart the moment I saw their condition. An old woman passed by us, I took an apple from my bag and gave it to her.

As we passed by a crowd of children, I gave each of them an apple. They formed a line and it grew longer. Were they all really that hungry for an apple? The crowd grew thick.

"I'll have the king send more. We have to go now" Lance said.

I could see some of them fighting over an apple. I gave out a sigh.

"You are suited to be a Princess after all, you care about the people of this Kingdom"

"Who wouldn't be? Is this place really that poor? Is the Prince even taking care of his people?"

He didn't respond for a long time. He kept a blank face on for almost an hour.

My jaw dropped as I saw the castle. It was so huge. Like ten or more mansions altogether. The gate was like an arch with huge walls on the side until the end. As we entered the gate, we passed by a huge garden with different flowers at the right and there was a huge tree at the left.

The inside was nothing like the outside. The tiles were aligned and formed a lotus flower. The ceiling was so high, it had the biggest chandelier I have ever seen. The stairs, divided into two but formed as an upside down "U" meters in front of the door. At the door, there were two knights, each had a spear.

As we entered, servants formed a line and took a bow.

"Get her clean with new clothes on" Lance ordered one of the servants and she took me upstairs, into a room which was so big.

The walls were pink with sakura trees as design. She took out a gown and a flat doll shoes and placed it on the bed before she left the room. By the time I saw my reflection, I noticed how messy my hair was and had small leaves sticking into it. My face was dirty and so was my uniform.

Then I made my way to the bath room. It was decorated with gold laces. The bathtub was also gold. As soon as I finished taking a bath, I put on the clothes and tried to look at it on a mirror.

I pinched myself just to make sure if this was a dream. This was real. I was now stuck in a medieval age, probably. But the way he said "another world" and the tornados he controlled. I shivered. How did this even happed in the first place? And how do I get back? If I was really the legendary Princess... no, I am the legendary Princess. I removed the seal earlier didn't I?

I fell on my knees, looking for any other explanations. But I came up none. Why did it have to be me? I wasn't up to the task of becoming a Princess of some sort of land. I might even turn things worse, worse than what the current Prince has done to his kingdom. Then someone opened the door.

"Princess, the Prince wants to see you" it was the servant Lance had ordered earlier. I followed her and was led into something they would call the throne room. There were two thrones on the far end. A guy with white hair and deep violet eyes was sitting on one of it. He was actually very handsome and charming. I caught myself blushing as I walked towards him.
