After Christine Dohana got out of the shower, she rushed to open the door. Mariot and Daisy waltz in holding shopping bags from very expensive boutiques. 

"Dohana, you're finally awake," said Mariot excitedly. "Look, we bought you designer dresses, and very expensive shoes."

"Come and see, you will love them," added Daisy.

Dohana's face flushed with excitement as she hurried to see the dresses.

'Wow, what kind of people are these, they just met me yesterday and are already buying me presents?'

Mariot dropped the bag on the couche before she sat down and searched for the dresses. Daisy sat next to her, anxious to see Dohana's reaction when she saw her dress. Mariot found the dress and said, "gotcha!"

When Mariot lifted Dohana's dress up, Dohana was stunned. "What a beautiful dress it is!"

"You like it?" Asked Mariot, her face gleeful and anxious to see a reaction. 

Dohana was exctaticly stunned, her mouth agape. She nodded cheerfully. She had only seen such dresses online because her country sold a different type of fashion.

"It's an elegant evening banquet dress, perfect for a party, you will look like Cinderella."

"A party?" Dohana asked, puzzled.

"Yes girl, we're attending an exquisite boat party tonight," said Mariot grinning, sturdying Dohana's expressionless face. She had thought she'd be elated. "It's a welcome party for you as our roomate."

Daisy had noticed Dohana's indifference. "You don't seem excited Dohana, it's going to be lit tonight."

"I don't know," said Dohana, "we don't attend parties where I'm from. I don't know if it's something I should be doing."

Daisy and Mariot looked at each other in surprise. "Girl, you're an adult now you can attend any party that you want. Since you're coming with us, you'll be safe and you'll definitely have a lot of fun."

"Lots of fun," added Daisy. "The cities most famous and made men will be there."

"Who knows, you could meet your prince charming!" Said Mariot.

Dohana's face lit up. "Prince charming?" She asked, her eyes sparkled and her hands clasped together on her chest.

Mariot and Daisy glanced at each other, before Marriot said, "yes, so you should try out this dress then for your prince…"

Before she could finish, Dohana had shot up to her feet and ran to her room. The girls rushed towards her room and found her ramaging through her luggage.

She took out a long brightly coloured evening dress, flashing it in their eyes, she asked, "What do you think? If I'm to find my prince charming tonight, then I must wear the princess traditional dress."

Mariot flashed daisy a weird look and they both shrugged. 

"It looks great Dohana," said Daisy, thinking, 'anything to make her come to the party tonight.'

"Ladies, it's going to be lit," said Mariot holding both ladies hands as she pulled them back to their living room. They began to excitedly try out all the new dresses.

"Oh my god! My hair," cried Dohana grabbing her messed up hair. It had been messed up since her ride on the bus the previous day, and she had planned to stay indoors for a while before getting someone to work on her hair.

"Excellent, we'll all go down to the salon down the road, let's go now as there might be a queue," said Mariot.

'Salon?' Dohana wondered. 

Daisy rushed the ladies out of the apartment. As they walked down the streets of downtown LA, Dohana couldn't help but feel such an amazing feeling of freedom, the fresh chilly wind on a bright àfternoon was indeed refreshing on the first day of her new life. Every step she took felt amazing. She was truely free. Back at home, she would never be allowed to walk the streets freely like she was today.

Looking at Mariot and Daisy's carefree livelihoods, she couldn't help but feel envy for how they had lived their entire lives.

But now that she was about to live carefree as her friends, she was elated. She began to sing and dance in circles as she walked. Mariot and Daisy were just as open-minded, joining her in her public performance much to the delight of the watching civilians.

At the salon, the ladies took one look at her and knew she was different. "And then, what part of town did you come from?" Asked one of them.

Dohana hesitated, one thing she had learnt as soon as she got into the city, was not to tell people who she really was, as all they did was return a mocking face and attitude towards her.

"I'd like this hairstyle please," said Dohana pointing to one of the pictures on the salons catalogue book.

"Make me look like the most beautiful princess."

    The bullet flew through the air. While Aishantha looked on at the gun quivering helplessly, a diving figure leaped across her and fell to the ground.What?Everyone's head was buzzing, did the Queen Mother really pull the trigger?Aishantha subconsciously probed her body for gunshot wounds. And when she found none, she instantly glanced at the figure lying on the floor. Her mind was boggled.It was Jake. Blood was stained all over his suit and his white t-shirt was red."No, Jake!" Princess Dohana cried, dropping to her knees and puzzled, not knowing how to help Jake at all. "Why did you do that, why?"With his eyes closed as if he was dead, Jake didn't respond.Everyone else stood there, stunned."Oh, you want to be a hero, right?" The Queen Mother said, chuckling before raising the gun towards Aishantha again. Prince Dominic quickly stepped over and blocked Aishantha completely."You...you have dissapointed me Dominic. Did you forget the plan so suddenly? You were supposed to marry

    Feeling the cold blade on his neck, Prince Dominic was furious. How could he have let his guard down. As the renown Prince of Paris, and having trained on the art of combat since he was a child, how could he accept defeat by an amateur. 'Obviously this kid is no experienced fighter, and to be cheated and be outdone by him is just embarrassing. But I'm a Prince, I can't lose.' "I said, say your last words pal!" Jake yelled. Prince Dominic thought of countermeasures quickly. "Who said I've lost," after he spoke, the Prince used his left hand to squeeze Jake's injured shoulder. The Prince had thought about it. He'd hurt Jake where he previously stabbed him and then use this momentum to turn the tables. After using all his strength to squeeze and jab the injured shoulder, Jake merely glanced at his hand. Seeing Jake's smirk, Prince Dominic was astonished. Why is he not hurting? Seeing his puzzled face, Jake leaned back and used his right hand to reveal the wounded area. What?

    Pin drop silence followed as all eyes gathered around the man who had just crashed into the wedding hall. Everyone couldn't help but gasp at the sight and the aura that pervaded him. He wore a stylish black suit, with a red tie; the black shades he had on gave him a mysterious demeaner. With his hands jammed into his side pockets, looking extremely relaxed, he smiled as he glanced at the audience. The Queen Mother was staring at him in total bewilderment. She couldn't figure it out. She had done her utmost best to ensure he would never be able to enter the palace, let alone the wedding venue. How did he pass through the thousands of royal soldiers defending the royal palace?"Jake!"Princess Dohana couldn't believe her eyes. She shuddered at the site of him, staggering back.'Finally, my Prince charming didn't let me down. He came to save me. He is really here. Am I dreaming? That means I don't have to marry Dominic, I don't.'As a thousand thoughts ran through Princess Dohana's mind

    The atmosphere became tense in a second. Erick Vohn drew out his sword, showing a sneer as he directed his sword towards the Resistance army."How dare you try to deceive us? Do you know who I am?"Mr Heart returned a mocking smirk, "You're the general of a mutilated army.""Shut up! the general shouted, "soldiers, attack!"The royal soldiers roared and charged together simultaneously."Resistance, buckle up and get ready to defend, walls of steel!" As soon as the words resonated through the air, the Resistance formed a straight wall. One soldier had his knee to the ground, the other stood behind him blocking the abdomen, their shields both blocking the opponent. Behind them, the soldiers pushed them hard to resist.When the oncoming traffic of royal soldiers clashed against the wall, they bounced off and stabilised their feet before rushing back. After several attempts, the soldiers began to wonder what was up about the wall? How could their opponents be so strong. Seeing this scen

    As the sun rose in the east, Princess Dohana opened her eyes and she couldn't help sighing with emotions. Today was her wedding day but she was sad. She had always imagined her wedding day would be the happiest day of her life. But instead, it promised to become a dreadful day.Soon Princess Dohana picked herself up and prepared to head over to the bathroom to wash up but to her surprise, a man was sitting on a chair looking at her attentively."Prince Dominic!"The Prince smiled and said, "you look even more beautiful when you're sleeping so peacefully."Feeling intruded, Princess Dohana stepped back instinctively and said, "what are you doing here? Don't you know the groom is not supposed to see the bride on the morning of the wedding?"The smile on the Prince's face was quickly replaced by a lazy sneer. "Oh please, cut the crap. It's not like you really want to get married to me."Princess Dohana looked down as she saw his gloomy face.Seeing her so docile, Prince Dominic stood up

    The atmosphere in the hall changed, one could cut the air between the Queen Mother and Princess Dohana with a blunt knife. The silence that reigned, if you dropped a pin, it could be heard clearly. Between the royal family, it was Dorah who recovered first. Her sharp eyes stared down the Princess and she couldn't hide her disgust. "You...Dohana, how could you be this stupid? What marriage are you talking about?" Sirah also added, furrowing her brows, "do you mean you're married officially? Like legally?" The Queen Mother cackled out of nowhere. The voice was so loud that it echoed throughout the hall as everyone looked at each other in dismay. "Child, don't tell me you got drunk and had an accidental wedding." The Queen Mother continued to laugh. "No. Your majesty, it was a sober day when I got married." "Shut up!" Dorah scolded angrily. 'How shameless can this woman be?' "You shut up, okay!" Dohana retorted, pointing her fore-finger across the lot. "I don't need any of your
