WooHoo! I'm writing my first SYOC! I mean, at first, I was hesitant because it felt like too much work. I know that I'm a lazy bug. Sorry.

Okay, so this chapter will be in the Prince's POV. Note: He can't feel love, compassion, or joy. He's been a serious guy his whole life.

...

Prince Christopher's POV

"Honey, are you ready to go," my mother smiles at the door.

Today, is apparently the most important day of my life. It's the start of my Selection. Mother thinks one of these girls can help me. She thinks that they will "fix" me. Honestly, I don't want to be fixed. As far as I can tell, this thing they call love is pointless. It weakens you.

As the Queen of Illea, my mother was a candidate in the Selection. She says that it was the best experience of her life. People think the love story of King Tyro and Queen Natasha should go down in the history books. What is so special about love? I've seen the way father cried when mom lost a child. He wouldn't work for days. That mourning period was a waste of time.

At this moment, mom knows that I'm thinking about the Selection. She knows what I think. It's not worth all the effort.

"If your father didn't have a Selection, I wouldn't have you. I wouldn't have your brother and your sister," she coos. Mom sits down next to me on the bed.

"Maybe that would've been a good thing. Children hold people back. You could've found another way to get a successor," I seethe.

"When you have your Selection, you'll understand." She rubs my back and I see a tear fall down her cheek. I haven't done anything wrong, I think.

"I didn't realize that I was such a disappointment," I mumble. Can't anyone understand that this who I am? Am I not allowed to speak my mind?

"No, honey, I meant-" Mom starts to explain herself but, I don't want to hear it.

"I'm ready to go. I'll meet you at the Report set," I walk out of the room, leaving my mother sitting on the bed. Today, thousands of girls will be signing up to participate in my Selection. They can't help me. I won't let them.

Okay, I hope you guys liked this chapter. There are 34 spots open because I am submitting my own character. Just so you know, the Prince's brother is a year younger so… Your character might or might not fall in love with the brother.

This is what I am looking for in your entry. Also, this is 5 generations after Eadlyn's love story. The Caste System is back in place because 2 generations before this was horrible. PLEASE GIVE A LOT OF DETAIL. You can PM me or review.
