Katya and Mia Thermopolis are just normal girls living in San Francisco with their mother. When their estranged grandmother arrives for a surprise visit with some shocking information, she changes their lives forever.
After school the following day Mia had told them to go on without her, having her own limo there to take her later, and Katya had Joe drop Michael off at work before they began making their way to Clarisse's home for the girls daily princess lessons.

She arrived and found her grandmother sitting in the parlor with Charlotte. The two of them looked up and smiled as Katya entered the room.
"Ah Katyana, you're here early." Clarisse greeted as she checked her watch.
Katya nodded, "Yeah, we left school early to take Michael to work."
Clarisse looked around, "Where is your sister?"
"She told us to go on without her," Katya informed as she moved to sit on the couch, "Said she'd take her own limo today."
Clarisse frowned, "She's going to be late, isn't she?"
Katya grinned over at her, "You're starting to catch on." Her grandmother just sighed.
"Well, while we're waiting, we may as well begin." Clarisse began going over things that only Katya, as the future ruler, would need to know while the waited on Mia to arrive.
"Now," Clarisse gave a small smile, "You do realize that after the ball you will be moving to Genovia with me?"
Katya nodded solemnly, "Yes, I figured that I would need to move there soon, but what about graduation? I am the valedictorian."
Clarisse frowned, "Oh, well when is graduation?"
"In about a month; actually it's the 23rd, I believe."
Clarisse smiled, "Well the ball is on the 19th, so I believe we can postpone our leaving for a couple of days."
Katya let out a relieved sigh, "That's great, but I do have one small request."
"Yes?" Her grandmother asked.
"Well, my birthday is a few days after the ball as well, and I was wondering if when we leave for Genovia, if Michael could come with us and spend a week or two with me?" She questioned quietly, worrying that her appeal would be denied.
Clarisse was quiet for a moment, thinking her requested over. She looked over at Charlotte for a moment, silently communicating, before nodding in acceptance, "I think that can be arranged."
Katya grinned happily and raced over to Clarisse, "Oh thank you, grandma!" she cried as Katya threw her arms around her.
"Omph," Clarisse smiled and gently wrapped her own arms around her granddaughter; "You're welcome, dear."
Mia suddenly slid through the door, stopping in front of the little group. Katya let go of Clarisse and moved back to her original seat.
"You're late." Clarisse spoke, checking her watch.
