Enjoy this little story, my earlier post at an old story failed miserably, so this will hopefully make up for it. This prologue will be in 3rd person but I can change that if you don't like it for (hopefully) future chapters. Cause I'm nice like that ;)

If you want to know what going on with my other stories I wrote that all on the failed story :D enjoy!

P.S did you guys see the royal wedding? It was fuckin amazing! Makes me proud to live here and be a part of that, I'm too young to have been at Diana's. So this new story about royalty is devoted to the newlyweds, Kate and William let's just hope the paparazzi don't harass them too much ;)

The Princess of Voltar

Prologue: All Is Not Always What It Appears To Be

"Princess, your mother wishes to see you" Garrett bowed as he spoke his message to Isabella, Princess of Voltar.

"Garrett you know you don't have to bow for me" Isabella smiled kindly at the man that had posed as her guard since she was small, and added

"It's unnecessary" Garrett offered her his arm and she took it. You'd think that in these more modern times that the protection of a princess would have changed also, but not in Voltar. They still surrounded their royalty in mounted police, walking guards and horses that were trained to stampede.

"Thank you" Isabella spoke quietly, secretly fearing what she had done wrong this time.

The queen was not a patient woman, the loss of her husband made her bitter and out for revenge. Isabella, however innocent it seemed to her, continued to push her mother's buttons, at all the wrong times. This would be one of those times. The princess tentatively opened the door, refusing to let Garrett do that for her also, and meekly made her way into her mother's study.

"Sit" the queen's voice was cold, and hard; as it had been since Isabella was six.

"Yes my queen" their relationship was strained and purely political most of the times. But Isabella knew this was not one of those conversations,

"You may call me mother in this conversation" she nodded,

"Isabella you have been tugging at my last nerves" she fiddled with the edge of her shorts,

"I'm sorry mother"

"No, you are not" Isabella's brow furrowed tightly, fighting to sassy remark she was about to make,

"No matter how many times I have told you, you still do not take your role as a princess seriously!" I rolled my eyes discreetly,

"You wash dishes with the kitchen staff, you fold clothes with the maids; you sew with the handmaids and plant with the gardeners! You are not to mix with them, you are meant to be planning your wedding! How are you to be married and find a husband if you are so intent on clinging to your childhood?"

"I am not clinging to my childhood! I never had one and you know it, I grasping the childhood I didn't have then now, all the things I missed out on I'm getting them now. I haven't been out of this palace in 12 years, that's ridiculous!"

"The only thing that is ridiculous Isabella is your behaviour, if you are so intent on having that type of lifestyle by all means have it" the princesses eyes widened,

"Really?" the queen snorted,

"Don't sound so excited dear, I'll enrol you into Dartmouth and ship you off to the US" Isabella bit her lip,

"Do I have to go to Ivy League?" the queen's glare was icy and full of warning,

"It's either that or study here as planned, I will not have you mixing with commoners but if I must then you are going to mix with the uppermost class of them" her mother's egotistical view of the world was sickening but as she had learnt, you have to put up with it.

Voltar was a small Island just off the north east coast of Australia, the temperature was at a constant high and the oceans were a crystal blue. Voltar was a completely independent country and hardly anyone knew it existed by the wish of Renee, however they did know Isabella and the royal family, just not where they ruled. Voltar was also part of the ring of fire, sat right on the boundary between Pacific and Australian plate.

Queen Renee was a spiteful woman who ran the country well, no one could deny that; however raising a child hadn't been her forte and had given her child a nanny by the name of Rosalie and a personal guard named Garrett. The poor child grew up barely knowing her own mother, though most of the time she was only feet away.

The child grew up and was suddenly taken into the interest of her mother, and was thrust duties she had no idea how to undertake. The princess couldn't even walk right, and as the pressure got too much for Renee, she, once again, left her responsibilities as a mother, to princess's nanny, and allowed her to step in; the princess was Isabella.

"You shall leave in the morning" Isabella nodded,

"Is there anything required of me?" the queen contemplated that,

"You are allowed to study amongst the commoners but do not…mingle outside of class, do you understand?"

"Perfectly mother"

"We shall go back to our former mannerisms princess"

"Yes my queen, thank you my queen"

Isabella paced in her room, "Tomorrow" she muttered, knowing full well that mean the crack of dawn.

"I'll have to see henry and say bye to everyone" Isabella only spoke "properly" when her mother was in ear shot, her room was sound proof so there was no fear of exposure.

"Oh crap, I need to call Rosalie" she quickly made her way to the phone to call her nanny, Rosalie Hale couldn't have children, and even though she was 34 she'd been with Isabella since she was 16, bella had only been a few days old when Rosalie had cared for her.

"Rose?...yeah, she cracked…I'm going to America!" both girls squealed into the phone simultaneously. Isabella Volturi was one crafty bad ass princess, that the world was about to discover.

If you were wondering what "Voltar" stands for light =) you'll need that for future reference (and plus the relevance to the ring of fire), and Voltar is completely made up, because I'm cool like that. Anyway, hope you enjoyed and this was cleared than some of my other openings to my other stories, I tend to confuse everyone when I start out a story, sorry about that. Ok if you've bothered to read this far, thank you, very kind, and please review…or don't and I'll realize that you don't like it :/ kay, right, yeah Enjoy, happy reading, and REVIEW! Lol, ok bye! Hehe
