The Princess Chronicles

Chapter 1

"We'll attack from here then camp here,"I said indicating the places as I dragged my finger around the map. We were planning for our attack on the rogue island. It is know for its vast waters of mysterious winds and floods. Only rogues went on the island but they were constantly attacking on our kingdom.
"No!"my father king Charles complained,"its too close."
"But then the ships will take longer to get there and we can't guarantee that the ships will get there and we need to watch out for that." I complain.
"You need to think, what do you want? To avenge your mothers death or send unaware soldiers to the heart of our troubles and put all of Pembroke into war?" Father questions eyeing me.
"I'm going to take a break, excuse me," I say gathering my skirt and bolting out of the kings study. All the members of the counsel were there and my father always embarrassed me before them. I ran down the hall and ran down the main staircase. I swiftly ran across the throne room to a huge oak wood door. Two guards stood in front of the door and blocked my way.
"I'm sorry your highness but I can't let you past, kings orders," a tall dark skin guard told me.
"Let her through!"a loud familiar voice said from behind me before I could tell treating them. I spun around and saw Prince Dylan.
Prince Dylan was Prince of our neighboring kingdom Penniston.
He was my suitor and I'm not going to lie, he is gorgeous,noble, kind and clever. All the things a girl wants in her future husband but I played hard to get. Call me evil but it is ridiculous how wound up he gets trying to get my attention. Its amazing how vulnerable men can get.
"Oh hello Prince Dylan. What brings you to Pembroke?" I greet as I curtsy.
"I wanted to see my dearest admirer," he says charmingly
"Oh, don't tell me , its the beggar on Krishna street. I've always seen you down there by the market and here I thought that you could do soo much better," I said exaggerating the word better.
"Actually I meant you?" He says immediately flushing red.
"I was kidding,geez!" I complain.
"Right um do you want to go for a walk?" He asks awkwardly.
"I have a very busy schedule but I can give you about 15 minutes," I day teasingly.
"Great,," he says charmingly," let's go,"
After that we went out of a hidden door to my secret garden.
There was a little pond where saids ,(little mermaids), resided.
They sang beautiful songs that will bring peace to a stressful mind.
We sat down on a stone bench that was at the middled of the bridge that stood graciously above the pond.
"So how was your day today?" He asks as he stares at a syaid.
" Its so stressful, I'm tired of it all.
I wish I was normal the I wouldn't have stress, take care of a younger sister, pretend to be all high and mighty and, then mom wouldn't have died," I said the last part to myself.
"It wasn't your fault. Fate brought you here, it brought you to me," he said giving me a blank look," I've always told you I love you, but do you love me because if you don't then I'll leave you be and......"
" I don't know what or how you fell when you're in love. No one has ever showed me," I interrupt as I stand to look at the beautiful staid. She looked at me with a warm smile then ducked her head under water.
"Maybe I can teach you," he says as he leans in and presses his warm lips against mine. He places his hands by my cheeks and pulls away.
"I love you,'' he says as he starts to kiss again. I kiss him back and put my hands by his warm shoulders. I pull away when I hear a faint sound in the distance. Was that singing?
"What happened?" Dylan asks worriedly.
"Do you hear singing?" I ask in confusion.
"Yes. Its the syaids," he says as-a-matter-of-factly.
"Well duh. But it sounds different almost as if it sounds evil," I say looking down at the nyaid that was singing. Her eyes looked evil.
"Why don't we call it a night and leave? Okay,okay," I say as I hold onto his hands and pull him far away from the bridge.
"If you didn't want to kiss me you could've just said so," he says halting me to a stop. His expression was of full depression and anger.
"What?" I asked shocked at his revelation.
"What do you want me to do? I have tried to impress you! I have done everything in my power to try to get to you but no, why don't you accept me?" He asks as he holds my hands to his chest.
"You don't understand. That's not why....."
"I'm done. Don't worry I'm not going to try to annoy you by chasing after you. From now on I'm finished with you. Goodbye Princess Erica." He says as he puts down my hands and turns to leave but I stop him by putting my hand on shoulder.
"Wait! Listen I'm..." I begin but he shrugged off my hand.
"Bye Erica," he whispers then heads out of my garden.
"Oh I've really done it now," I whisper to myself then fall to my knees. I for a really long time threw myself to my knees and cried. Then the syaids started singing and then I cried myself to sleep as the full moon rose to its peak.
