Prologue

The world is full of beliefs in magic.  There are Princesses and Princes, Queens, Kings, and more.     This is a tale of a lost Princess, abandoned by the King and Queen at birth. Will she reunite with her royal family and become a Royal Princess everybody is fond of, or will she stay an Abandoned Princess, nobody is fond of?

“Should I try to ask someone for water? It’s been hours since we drank anything, and I don’t wanna die!” the Abandoned Princess’s abandoned friend, Lauren, said. “No thanks, Lauren. We just drank some. You literally ask this every minute!” the Abandoned Princess, Luri said. “I’m just worried,” Lauren said.  “What if we starve, what if no one lends us water?” “You know what, you stop worrying. This jug of water is already full, We’d need more water in at least two weeks!” Luri said. “And what if no one decides to lend us

water?” Lauren said. “I said don’t worry, people are kind. I’m sure they’ll lend us water." Luri said. "Okay..." Lauren sighed, full of worriness. Just then, the Queen, King, and their child, the Prince, walked across the street. Everyone made a path for the royal family. "Luri, LURI!" Lauren yelled. "Yeah?" Luri said. "I've been calling you since the last five minutes! What were you staring at?" Lauren asked. "The Royal Family," Luri answered. "Why them?" Lauren asked, again. "I don't know, I don't even know why this happens each and every day they walk across the street, or anywhere else," Luri answered, again, but a little sadly.  

"It's like I'm related to them..." "What? NO!" Lauren said. "Why not?" Luri asked. "First, you don't have proof. Second, If you were, would you still remember me? Or would you forget all about me, and leaving this kind of life behind, and royalty and fame would be in the front?" Lauren said, sobbing at the end. Luri looked at the ground. "You're right...  I would probably leave this life behind... I won't risk a family if that means losing my Best Friend!" Luri protested to Lauren. 

"Good." Lauren said. A few days later, Luri and Lauren had the same conversation again. Each day, they had that conversation. Each and every MINUTE. "Why no--" Luri asked, but cut off by Lauren. "STOP! YOU ASK THIS EVERY DAY! I'VE HAD ENOUGH! RISK A FAMILY IF YOU WANT! I DON'T CARE! ALL YOU CARE IS ABOUT FINDING A FAMILY, AND NOT YOUR BEST FRIEND!" Lauren yelled. "But--" Luri said, cut off again by Lauren. "NO BUTS! JUST... Go.." Lauren said, getting softer at the end of her sentence.  Luri looked down again, but then slowly left to set off to the royal castle, weeping. "I've finally found it, my family! I don't need a

Best Friend like Lauren! Best Friends are the worst! After all, like they say, Family comes first." Luri yelled, sadly at the start and angrily at the end. Luri entered the castle. "What is your purpose to come here?" A guard said. "Sabotage the King and Queen's 10th anniversary?" another said. "What? No! I'm here to, well, have a little talk with them." Luri said, a little confusedly. "Very well. You may enter then." a Guard said. The golden gates suddenly opened automatically. "Wow, automatic golden gates! That must cost a lot!"

Luri said to herself. As the King opened his eyes, he said, "What-- WHO ARE YOU?! We only speak to people from this town, and other Kings, Queens, Princes, and Princesses!" "Let the girl talk, Sasteradium." the Queen said. "Oh, fine." the King replied. "Ever since I've been abandoned at birth, Each time I see this family walk past the street, I've felt like I'm related to you guys." Luri explained. "You don't think she's, You-Know-Who-We-Can't-Tell-Our-Son, right?" the Queen whispered to the King. 

"No, It can't be!" the King yelled. "What was that? Is the King okay?" Luri asked, a little worriedly. "Yes, I will take him into our room. The King and Queen quickly walked to their room. "This little girl does look like us, you know. Her hair and eyes are just like ours!" The Queen said. "It... Is her.." the King said. The Queen and King came back into the main room. "We have talked everything---" The King said, cut off by their son. "Who are you?! I don't have a twin or sister! Right, mom and dad?" their son said.

"What do we say?" the King whispered over to the Queen. "Right, son!" the Queen said, nervously. "Saphire, that isn't true!" the King whispered to the Queen, again. "We will tell our son when she leaves!" the Queen said. "LEAVE, NOW, LITTLE GIRL, YOU ARE A DISGRACE TO MY SON!" the Queen yelled. "Okay..!" Luri said, weeping and shyly. Luri had left the castle. "Um... Son, we... need to tell you something..." the Queen said. "Err... It's just that... Well, you DO have a sibling.
