Superficial

Chapter~Two

     Blinding rays shoot me in my dilated pupils as the birds chirp to signal morning light. Groaning I crawl out of the extremely comfortable warmth I call a bed. "Time for my morning routine," I say to nobody in particular. I can hear the soft mews of my fluffy white cat I call Mr. Sweetface as he does his morning stretches on my bed. As he too was starting to wake up I head towards the bathroom to start my routine. When I reach the bathroom I look at myself as I stretch. My eyes are still pink as ever. "Your going to be okay Rosalinda," I say to myself in confidence.

     After finishing up I go to cook up breakfast for me and Mr. Sweetface. Walking out the early light hitting me in my still sensitive eyes. The smell of my garden hits my nostrils. I've been growing herbs that my people have brought from our homeland that is if I can even call it my homeland. I don't even remember it nor my parents if I even had some. I pull weeds from the garden as I'm lost in thought. Beads of sweat dripping down my forehead as the ultra violet rays hit me with intense power. Mr. Sweetface helping by clawing at some weeds. I can't even begin to fathom what people even think of me or even what will happen to me if I'm not careful.
     Finally after about an hour, I finished in my garden and start to head to town that is after I clean my self up a bit. I can feel glances shoot me with every bit of disgust someone can muster up as I walk along the path to the center of town where all the stall benders set up. I ignore the occasional whispers and move on. I like to sell my products but because folk don't like me I decided that I would sell my goods at a lower price. I sell all sorts of things that people can even imagine of having but can't have cause it cost so much to order from over seas. That's probably the only reason they buy from me.
                   The Princes Pov
     I just heard my parents talking well more like arguing about the Euphorian's that quote on quote "invaded our Earth." That's at least my father's take on it but not mine nor my mother's opinion. My mom has always been too kind for her own  good but that's why my dad fell in love with her. I got my mother's way of thinking and my father's athletic abilities. My name is Vincent Silver of Chrysanthemum. Son of William and Danica Silver. I don't know much of what my father has done but all I know is that they keep the Euphorians in the dungeon. That's  where I'm headed the dungeon to talk to them and figure out if they really are a danger to my kingdom or not.
     "The prince is here," a guard shouted to the rest, "So, how may we help you your highness," he sucked up. "I want to talk to our prisoners to get more information to help the kingdom," I lied. "As you wish your highness," they moved aside. As I walk towards the back of the hallway I reach a section of the dungeon with no guards and a bunch of prisoners gathered; at the back. It sickened me to see families gathered at the back not wanting to be around the soldiers. As I approached the bars they backed up in fear. "You have nothing to worry about i'm not going to hurt you, in fact I want to talk to you about your people," I started. "I want to help you all get out but first I will need to gather information; well I will also need to marry first to take over as king and free y'all," I finished. "Marry our Princess!" they said with some newly found hope. They have a princess, the only thing now is to find her. I gather more information about my future bride.
