Chapter 1: Princess Reimei

Long ago, in a far away land lived King Katsuya and his fair Queen Kyoko. For many years they had longed for a child, and finally their wish was granted. A daughter was born and they named her Reimei. Yes they named her after the dawn as she filled their lives with sunshine. Then a great holiday was proclaimed throughout the Kingdom, so that all of high or low status might pay respect to the infant Princess. It is on this day that our story begins…

The castle was alive with joyous celebration as the crowds gathered to see the baby Princess. The grounds were bursting with well-wishers and worshipers all calling into the royal court their praises and congratulations.

Inside the royal court the King and Queen sat with the cradle near by, the court announcer Ayame was introducing the parties that arrived, and soon came King Katsuya's life-long friend.

"Their royal highnesses King Kazuma and his son Prince Kyo."

A tall man with greying hair and a very young boy with fiery orange hair entered and walked up to the royal party. The Kings greeted each other merrily, and Katsuya patted Kyo on the head, he then introduced him to his wife Kyoko who had the same bright hair as the young Prince.

She smiled at him, "Kyo, would you like to meet Princess Reimei?"

The young boy looked to his father, who nodded; Kyo took Kyoko's hand and followed her to see the little baby. He bent over her crib and looked in to see a little bundle wrapped in sheets and a cute little face poking out; it had rosy cheeks, deep brown eyes and a little tuft of brown hair on the top of its head. Kyo thought it wasn't cute at all, just another little kid. He made a disgusted face and Kazuma gave him a stern look, but Kyoko just laughed. Kyo gave her the gift he had been holding and hid behind his dad.

The Kings laughed; for on this day not only did the two Kings celebrate Reimei's birth, but the uniting of their Kingdoms. Prince Kyo and Princess Reimei were to be betrothed, unifying their Kingdoms at last.

Ayame hushed everyone as the next two guests arrived.

"The most honoured and illustrious Excellencies, the two good fairies, mistress Uotani and mistress Hanajima"

Two beautiful women floated in, the first had a slightly tough look to her despite her long flowing blonde hair and the long ruby dress that matched her brilliant crimson butterfly wings. The next had a dark mysterious look to her, her black hair curled down to her waist, her dark plum dress flowed behind her as deep purple and black butterfly wings carried her to the ground.

They bowed to the King and Queen and King Kazuma and Prince Kyo. Kyoko ran up to them and hugged them tightly.

"Uo! Hana! It's so great to see you!"

"It's great to see you too!" Uo hugged her back

"Yes it is divine." Hana replied in a calm voice. Katsuya smiled at them and waved from his throne as they walked over to the cradle, they looked in and cooed sweetly to the child

"Oh! She is so sweet Hana!" Uo said as she admired the child

"Yes a real beauty, well she will be soon." Hana replied reminding Uo of their task.

"Oh right! Your majesties," She said as she turned to the proud parents "We shall both bless the child with a single gift. No more, no less" She looked to Hana who nodded, she then bent over the cradle again. "Little Princess, my gift shall be the gift of beauty…" A bright red spark floated from her hands to the top of the cradle and exploded like a firework showering the Princess with the harmless red sparks. She moved back and let Hana move forward to the cradle, she rose her hands "Sweet Princess, my gift shall be-"

A loud bang echoed around the room and a sickly green smoke erupted in the middle of the court, A tall lean figure stepped out of it and looked around, they had just above shoulder length straight black hair and a malicious smile, they wore a long black cloak that flowed along the floor behind them. She looked around and saw shocked looks everyone's faces.

"Oh dear Ayame, you aren't going to introduce me?" She smiled evilly at him; it sent chills down his spine.

"Akito" Hana gasped, and she and Uo gave her death stares, which is very rare coming from good fairies. Akito only smirked and walked towards the King and Queen.

"Well, quite a glittering ensemble, King Katsuya. Royalty, nobility, the gentry, and, how quaint, even the monster." She said bitterly as her eyes rested on Kyo. She turned back to the King. "I really felt quite distressed when I didn't receive an invitation"

"You weren't wanted!" Kyoko stood up glaring at Akito

"Not wan-? Oh dear, what an awkward situation. I had hoped it was merely due to some oversight. Well, in that event I'd best be on my way." Akito said turning around,

Katsuya stood up "And you're not offended, your Excellency?" He asked as he made Kyoko sit down with him. Akito turned around with a malicious smile.

"Why no, your majesty. And to show I bear no ill will, I, too, shall bestow a gift on the child." She turned to the cradle; Uo and Hana covered it with their arms to protect it, still glaring at Akito.

"Listen well, all of you!" She slammed her staff on the ground, creating a sickly green ball of light hover above it as she addressed the royal court. "The Princess shall indeed grow in grace and beauty, beloved by all who know her." Her voice became more vicious, "But, before the sun sets on her sixteenth birthday, she shall prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel and die!"

"Oh! No! No!" Kyoko ran up to the cradle and grabbed Reimei, hugging her close. Akito laughed evilly, Katsuya was outraged and called the guards "Seize that Creature!" the guards ran towards her. "Stand back you fools!" She slammed her staff to the floor again and disappeared in another puff of green smoke. Uo and Hana looked to the crushed parents, and then looked at each other, "Your Majesties, I still have my blessing" Hana looked to them with a kind smile. "Then can you undo this fearful curse?" Kyoko asked tearfully

"Oh no, my lady. Akito's powers are far too great." She said as she looked at the floor.

"But she can help!" Uo said nudging her. Hana looked up to the hopeful looks on their faces. "I shall try… Sweet Princess, if through this wicked witches trick a spindle should your finger prick, a ray of hope there still may be in this, the gift I give at thee. Not in death but just in sleep the fateful prophecy you'll keep, and from this slumber you shall wake when true love's kiss the spell shall break." A violet spark floated above the Princess again and it too exploded like a firework over her, lessening the horrible curse.

But King Katsuya and Queen Kyoko, still fearful of their daughter's life, did then and there decree that every spinning wheel in the Kingdom should on that very day be burnt. So it was done. As the brilliant fire burned in the castle grounds, Uo and Hana were contemplating what to do over tea.


"A bonfire won't stop Akito…" Hana said gloomily looking out the window

"I know! I'll turn her into a butterfly!" Uo said excited

"Who? Akito?" Hana said puzzled at how this could help.

"No, no, the Princess!" Uo said triumphantly

"But what if she flies away? Or Akito sends a storm? She could get blown away." Hana said finding the flaws in Uo's plan

"Ah damn it!" Uo cursed, she sipped her tea as she thought of what to do. "That's it, of course! It's the only thing she can't understand, and won't expect. Oh, oh, now, now ... We have to plan it carefully, let's see, woodcutters cottage, yes, yes, the abandoned one, of course the King and Queen will object, but when we explain it's the only way ..." Uo went off in a rant.

"Explain what Uo?"

"About the two peasant women raising an orphan child deep in the forest." Uo said excitedly

"Oh, that's very nice of them. Who are they?" Hana asked

"Turn around!" Uo said turning her to the mirror and waving her wand, Hana's dress changed to peasant clothing, as did Uo's.

"You mean us?" Hana said looking scornfully at Uo, changing her clothes from pink to dark purple and black.

"Of course! Oh it will be so much fun! Especially with magic!" Uo said brightly

"No, no magic Arisa" Hana said taking her wand away, "Oh and we'll have to get rid of these too" she said wisping away Uo's wings and her own.

"Otherwise Akito will trace the magic back to us and find the little Princess." Hana explained, Uo huffed and shrugged and they made their way down to the royal court to speak with the royal family.


The process of taking the newborn Princess away from her loving parents was painful. Kyoko wouldn't let her go until finally she gave up, falling into her husbands arms, distraught. Uo and Hana hated themselves for this, but knew it was the only way to keep Princess Reimei safe. So the King and his Queen watched with heavy hearts as their most precious possession, their only child, disappeared into the night.


The two fairies, living as peasants raised the Princess, and as an extra precaution they changed her name to Tohru. She grew to be a gorgeous beauty with dark chocolate brown hair, eyes of the same colour that were filled with love, and beautiful red lips, as red as a rose. She loved her 'aunts' Uo and Hana very much, and was very kind and modest. As the time grew nearer to her sixteenth birthday, the Kingdom began to prepare and celebrate her return.
