"Come on daaaad! I wanna see the princess!!" A boy whined as he pulled his dad to the great hall of the castle, "Minki! Don't worry, okay? You'll get to see her!" His dad chuckled while hoisting the 4-years old feminine boy up into his arms and over his shoulders, "one day, I'll become like you! I'll be a knight that could protect the princess! A-and-and I'll marry someone as pretty as mommy!" He said excitedly.

His father could only chuckle at his son's imagination, "oh, look Minki-ah! That's Aron hyung!" He said, Minki's head perked up and he leaped off of his dad's shoulders to run to his older friend, "Aron hyung!!" He called excitedly, the said boy turn his head towards the source of the voice and grinned, "Minki!!" He squealled as the younger boy crashed onto him while giggling happily, "have you seen the princess??" Minki asked, Aron shook his head, "no, not yet! But Jonghyun is looking for us! The king said that the knights' sons are summoned to the princess' bedroom"

Minki gasped, "COME ON THEN HYUNG!! DAAAAAD WE'RE GOING! BYE!!" he then took off with Aron trailing behind him to the princess' bedroom.

The Northern kingdom's ice castle was filled with people, everyone wanted to see their princess so badly that they came in all the way from the village, not only the villagers from their kingdom came, but also the villagers from the allianced kingdom; the Southern ice kingdom. Even the king came with his wife and two sons.

Three boys were hovering over a grand baby crib, they stared at the baby inside with much curiosity, "the princess looked so small..." "she looks like an alien though..." "she's still a baby! How can she not be small!?" Chatters were heard and soon the baby in the crib stirred a little before opening her eyes, at the same time Minki and Aron ran inside, "where's the princess???" Minki squealled excitedly while halting into a full stop in front of the crib.

Now five heads are perched over the crib as the baby princess looked at tshem confusedly, she let out a small whine, like as if she's going to cry, "ooh! Ohh! Princess, don't cry! There there" Aron came to his reflex and pat the princess' tummy softly, the princess giggled while sticking her fist into her mouth, "oh, nonono princess! Your fist is dirty, you don't want to get sick, do you?" Another boy's hands came up and tug her fist out of her mouth, "eish Jonghyun-ah, she doesn't understand you!" The boy next to him scoffed, Jonghyun pouted and pushed him a little, "shut up Dongho..." Jonghyun muttered.

Minki stared at the baby with a big smile and rosy cheeks, "Minhyun-ah, look! Isn't the princess look cute?" He squealed while jumping slightly, Minhyun scrunched his nose and shrugged, "she looks... different" he said. Minki was about to utter a protest when suddenly the door opened and in comes Prince Sanghyuk and the Queen.

The Queen smiled, "I see you boys have seen our little Princess" she said while walking over, "my, she doesn't even cry after she woke up and seeing all of you!" She smiled while picking the baby up in her arms, "mommy, I wanna see baby ___!" Sanghyuk whined while stomping his feet, "shh, you've seen her yesterday... you even played with her alone... baby ___ wants to meet her future protectors!" She said to the sulking Sanghyuk who crossed his arms and pursed his lips.
