Me: Hey everyone! This is my third fanfiction for Maximum Ride. So the gist of this story is that they are in Medieval Time. Max is Princess Maxine and Fang is a blacksmith named Nicholas and they are both seventeen. All the other characters are in it but they come later. But don't worry you'll who's who. Anyway, the princess and the blacksmith fall in love but they can't be together because she's a princess and he's a blacksmith. But the other reason why is because Princess Maxine is engaged.

Chapter 1:

Maxine POV:

I walk into the room to find three ladies sitting around in their room. All of them stand up and come to my side. Lady Monique, Lady Ariel, and Lady Lissa; my best friends and my ladies in waiting.

"Princess, what are we doing today? How about going to the seashore or maybe taking a walk in the garden, what about croquet?" Lady Monique said and I was just about to cover her mouth, but Lady Ariel did it for me.

"Actually, I was thinking of going into town," I said and their faces light up with excitement.

Once my ladies and I stepped out of the carriage I looked around. Everyone was bustling around, doing all kinds of things; selling bread, making deals, poor men begging for change. But then I caught the eye of a tall man with black hair and gorgeous eyes.

"Lady Ariel, come here for a second," I call her over from a stand with beautiful fabrics.

"Yes, Princess?" she said coming to my side.

"Who is that man, over there?" I ask pointing to him. Her face brightens up and starts to giggle.

"That is Nicholas, the blacksmith's apprentice," she said but she didn't even finish before I started walking over to him. Ariel runs up to me.

"Madame, what are you doing, you're engaged," she said. This is true; I'm getting married to Prince Dylan of Schools (A/N LOL). Only to make my parents King Jebulon and Queen Valencia, I have to marry him to make an alliance between our kingdoms. I am not in love with Prince Dylan, I only met him once and I couldn't' stand him. And then when my mother told me I was going to be engaged to him, I thought I was going throw myself off the balcony. Such a dramatic death.

"I know that, I'm just going to get a handmade bracelet, to celebrate my wedding," I said, I gosh I'm not a very good liar.

"As your lady Madame I absolutely forbid you to mingle with any man, but as your best friend, go for it. But I do warn you that Lady Lissa is eyeing him too, have fun," she said then runs over to the other ladies. I turn around and see lady Lissa pretty much undressing Nicholas with her eyes. I have to act quickly.

"Hello," I say to Nicholas. He turns around, his black hair in a ponytail and his shirt unbuttoned and covered in sweat. His face shows surprise, but he smiles.

"Princess, my apologies, I didn't expect your arrival. How can I help you?"

Nicholas' POV:

"Hello," I hear a voice. I turn around to see a stunning woman standing in the doorway of the shop. Her brown hair elegantly braided. She dressed in a dark red dress with three pink bows on the corset and at the end of the sleeves that come to her elbows. She was breathtaking, then I realized who I was looking at, Princess Maxine.

"Princess, my apologies, I didn't expect your arrival. How can I help you?" I say and then I bow. She smiles, her chocolate brown eyes sparkle.

"I was hoping to get a metal bracelet, for my engagement," she said walking into the shop.

"Well, what did you have in mind?" I said and then pick up some samples.

"Actually I was hoping for an original," she said coming closer. I start to blush, and she giggles.

"If I'm not mistaken, you are blushing," she said coming even closer, I'm going to take a leap of faith.

"I have some more designs in the back, just to give you an idea. Would you like to come with me?" I said. She looks behind her, and then looks at me and smiles.

"I would love to," she said.

Comments? Compliments? Just thought I would leave it there to add some suspense.
