THE FAIRY AND THE TWIN SWORDS.

chapter 1.

Subtitle: her anger.

*

Alice stared at the little carved duck she had in her hands for the upteemth time and smiled.

It was a bitter smile, a smile she would never get tired of showing.

It was a small gift from the most precious being she had ever had in her life and she would never get tired of keeping it as her possession.

There was a low knock on her door shortly and her maid Lara came in, she and lara had being friends for a long time and she had picked her to be her maid when her father the king asked her if she wanted a maid to accompany her to her hidden castle, she had agreed to it and picked her best friend, not that she wanted to make her serve her but because she wanted to stay with someone who was her friend and she could talk to.

"Alice, his highness asked for your presence in the royal castle and had sent two carriages to escort you down to pitburg royal hall at once.

Alice sighed and shot her a sad look.

"So the king actually remembered today was my birthday? Of course he would, it will be a shame if a princess does not get engaged on her eighteenth birthday as the traditions imply.

I knew this would come sooner or later, just didn't expect him to remember my birthday, I thought I would be let off the hook since im the invincible one but he actually remembered."

She smiled bitterly and said to her self.

She didn't know when tears had began to roll down her cheeks.

Eight years ago she was just a normal kid who lived happily in the castle with her mother and father who were both king and queen.

She didn't expect something tragic would happen and snatch away her happy life from her.

On her tenth birthday while she and her mother were throwing her a noble party she has excused herself to go look for her father who hasn't showed up to give her her birthday gift yet, but she didn't expect to come across something as shocking as that.

While at the doors to her father's chambers she heard him talking to a woman, they were arguing. Her ten years old self at that moment was very smart and already register what they were talking about.

The lady was claiming of him being the father of her child while he was pissed and asked the lady to keep quiet about it, the woman threatened him and his family. She said if she and her daughter do not get the title they deserve then she would make sure to tell everyone about their hidden child.

She was peeping in through the half opened door and the lady happened to catch a glimpse of her, the lady smiled evilly at her and that was the beginning of her nightmare.

Although she ran away and her father didn't notice her, later that night she lost everything she hold dear to her heart.

While her mother was tucking her to bed something happened, a masked man broke into her room and killed her dear mother in cold blood, the dagger was aimed at her but her mother took it ok her behalf, seeing that the mission to kill the little princess has failed the masked person ran away, leaving the dagger in the hands of the little princess who cried and hugged her mother on her laps as her mother spent the last moments she could with her.

She could clearly remember her mother's last words " don't cry sweet heart, I will never leave you. Here, take this and be strong for me, your stronger than you ever know daughter."

Those were her last words before she died and tugged the little carved duck into her hands before breathing her last and giving up.

She clutched onto her bleeding mother and the dagger as the door flunged open and the suddenly her father walked into the room in rage.

Seeing his beloved queen lying on the floor in cold blood and the dagger in his daughters hands he didn't know what to think anymore.

"You...did you kill your mother Alice?"

He asked with a shaky voice but the little girl only shut him and dangerous and moderous look.

" She stood up with the dagger and approached him with red bloody eyes, her father was shocked and moved back.

"You.. you killed mother, you killed her!"

The girl threw the dagger at him in rage and ran out of the room.

For days she was missing and was eventually found in the woods after five days, her father who was blinded by the rage he had towards his queens dead blamed her for it.

A grande burial was held for the queen and the people mourned her for months, alice was stripped of her rank as the crown princess and the name and title was given to her new step sister, the daughter to the woman she has seen with her father the other time.

She was then sent to the hidden hills of punthurg and banned from the palace or any other village till her eighteenth birthday, she was termed evil and the killer of her own mother the queen.

Her father never visited her for eight years and only sent food supplies to her at her hidden dark castle, he let her keep one companion which is her friend.

She had haboured a deep hatred towards him over the years, she found out through Lara that the king married that evil mistress only a year after his wife, her mother's dead and they have being living happily as a family along with her step sister.

She hated everything that had to do with the throne and the king and never wants to have anything to do with them.

Turning around and looking out the window to see the carriage she felt thirsty for revenge.

"Tell him I'll be out in a moment. Just need to change."

Alice said and lara was surprised that Alice agreed so quickly to going to the palace she dreaded the most.

But only she knew that deep in her heart she yearned for that day, she was going to destroy all their lives. Not in a rush but she will make them so miserable that they will beg for dead but won't find any.

That was her plan

Within a short while Alice and Lara were already in the carriage riding back to the royal town for he first time in eight years.

"A ball will take place at the palace today, both you and your step sister were born on the same day."

Lara said to Alice hoping to lighten up the mood atleast once.

"What is her name?"

Alice asked out of the blues.

"Her name is Cynthia Alexandria II and she is going to be the crown princess of the whole of Mariposa land.. she will be officially crowned today and both you and her will be present in the presence of the crowd and guest for the first time since you two were born."

Lara said to Alice who didn't nod but just kept quiet as thoughts raced through her mind.

It was a tradition for the royal family to never reveal the face of it's princesses untill they are eighteen, only close friends to them or guards and maids could have a glimpse of their faces.

"And the queen?"

Alice asked again.

"Her name is queen Helene Purch Alexandria II."

Lara answered her again.

She knew her best friend was not always in a good mood and would respect that.

Suddenly they  heard commotions from outside their carriage.

It was as if the horses were in a frenzy and they were now running helter skelter thus making the carriage shake.

"What's going on?"

Lara peeped out of the window as she saw that they were sarrounded by a group of bandits wearing black all through.

They were being attacked and two of the guards were already killed.

"What do you want?"

One of the guards asked the bandits.

Alice was aware of all that was going on out there but choosed to keep quiet and calm.

"Are you aware this is the rotal carriage?"

The guard asked with an angry voice.

One of the men in black showed him a royal seal.

"So your from the Aceland Royal province? Im so sorry to offend you... Did the emperor sent you?"

The guard was now shaking in fear.

Alice was sure she heard them say Aceland province.

One thing was clear, Mariposa was a very vast land but was controlled by her father the king.

There were many other provinces on the large Glitz planet but just like mariposa there were many other countries ( known as provinces in the book ) all of them were ruled by their kings, but there is an overall ruler over the whole planet.

The province name every other province fears and respects, the Aceland.

Four major provinces rule over numerous countries and villages of glitz.

The west province which is also known as Mariposa, it is named mariposa because the legendary fairy was born there hundreds of years ago, she was the only fairy in the land and had died a long time ago.

The east province is also called Galaxy Wing which is also as powerful as Mariposa.

The north which is the Crestland is also on the same level as the first two.

And then there is the south province which is Aceland.

It's level of power is combined by all other three provinces and their king is known as the emperor.

The emperor who was also the king of Aceland was a very powerful man.

He owns the most lands and has more army and power than the other kings, overall he is their ruler, but what did he want from them?

"What do you want from us?"

It was as if the guard had read her mind.

"We request an audience with the princess!"

The other man said with a firm voice.

"You must be mistaken, but she is not the crown princess. The crown princess is back in the castle."

The guard stuttered but was stabbed at the moment.

"I said the crown prince demands and audience with the first princess of Mariposa, and when I speak you obey!"

The man who had just stabbed one of the guards who accompanied Alice growled in anger.

"We only want to talk to the princess, and then well leave!"

A cold and demanding voice said icily from amongst the men in black, the others have way revealing a man who was wrapped up in black from head to toe, his cape covered most of his face and he had a mask on, overall he was the most dressed man amongst the others and one could totally see the difference.
