The Princess and the Pea

In a kingdom far, far away, there was once a Prince called Ikuto, who wished to marry a Princess- but a real princess she had to be.

So, he travelled all over the world to find the one, yet in every case something was wrong. He met countless Princesses, but he was not sure if they were the one he was looking for, there was always something this or that, which just did not seem right.

At last he came back home, quite downhearted, for he did so want to have a real princess.

One evening there was a fearful storm, the thunder raged and the lightning flashed, the rain poured down and turned into floods. It was terrifying. In the midst of it all, someone knocked at the palace door, and the maid Suu went to open the door.

Standing there was girl, who claimed she was a princess. But, goodness! What a state she was in! The water ran down her pink hair and her rag like clothes, through the tips of her torn shoes and out the nearly broken heel. No poor soul would believe her as a princess but still, she said she was a real princess.

The maid took her to the waiting room and told her to wait. Then she went to the queen's chamber to tell her the interesting tale of the girl.

'Well, we will find out soon enough,' the old queen thought. She did not say a word though, but went into the spare room, took off all the bed clothes and laid a little pea on the mattress. Then she ordered other maids to pile up twenty mattresses on top of it and twenty eiderdowns over that. There she told the princess was to sleep that night.

Not a wink of sleep the girl got that night and the morning was yet to come. The girl would not dare go against the queen's word, so; she endured the uncomfortableness she was feeling till morning.

When the morning came, the old queen asked her how she slept.

"Oh, shockingly! Not a wink of sleep the whole night long! God knows what was in the bed but I lay on something hard that has made me black and blue all over. It was quite dreadful." She exclaimed.

Now the old queen was sure she was a real princess, since she had felt the pea through twenty eiderdowns and twenty mattresses. Only a real princess could be so sensitive.

So the prince Ikuto married the princess Amu, he no longer had to search for a real princess any more and in the end they lived happily ever after.

The End!
