Running through the downtown market of Atlantis was a girl with long, silky brunette hair, tan skin and jade coloured eyes. She had on a pleaded, pink mini skirt with a white blouse that had pink lines sewed around the sleeves and on collar. On her feet were pink flat shoes. Clinging onto her pink two strap bag, she ran as quickly as possible with two men chasing her.

One had short brown hair, tan skin and dark brown eyes while the other had grey hair, light brown eyes and fair skin. Both were sporting silver armour.

"Why won't they leave me alone?" The brunette muttered, almost out of breathe.

Turning into an alleyway, she stopped in her tracks, kicking herself mentally. 'Great! I am trapped.'

Turning around she saw the two men approaching her. Ganging up on her, they handcuffed female.

Inside the light blue Palace of Atlantis, a male with fair skin, blue hair and similar colour eyes sat on one of the three thrones. He wore a gold crown, slightly loose white shirt, blue pants and white shoes.

His royal advisor, Palladium entered the empty room with a clip broad in hand. "King Helia, I have some news for you."

The nineteen year old sighed. "What is it?"

"I am here to remain you of your engagement to the Princess of Antarctica." Palladium pointed out.

Helia sighed even louder than before. "Palladium, how can I be engaged to someone I met once when I was two."

"Your parents along with the Princess's own saw how you two interact after that first encounter and thought it would be a good idea for you two to get married." The orange hair male informed him, placing his eyes onto the broad. "The marriage would merged the two Kingdoms. This city will be the capital and the Kingdom will be named Atlantis."

"Who says I would even like this girl? She could have an ugly personality amounts other things." The blue hair male pointed out.

"You won't know till you meet her. The Princess and her father are supposed to be here in a couple weeks." Palladium stated, flipping through the pages on the broad. "From what was gathered the Princess is eighteen, very beautiful, smart and a great fighter."

The steel doors of the throne room opened to reveal two guards with a brunette female in their hands. Palladium stood to the side while the guards dragged the girl to the King.

Once they reached the throne, the guards bowed before Helia.

"Raise." Helia told them, looking at the brunette beauty.

"King Helia, this female was found taking food from the market without paying for it." The brown hair male spoke.

"It was an honest mistake, your highness." The female protested. "I wanted to pay for the food but the vendor wouldn't take my money since it is in a different currency. He started to shout at me when your guards overhead the conversation and attacked me."

"Is that true?" He asked the two men.

"Well, we thought she was stealing your highness." The grey hair male stated, nervously. "From how the situation looked, it seemed like she was stealing."

"Release her then. She can simply return the food to the vendor and be on her merry way." Helia ordered them.

"Your highness?!" The two males looked surprised.

"She attacked me and almost broke one of my arms." The brown hair male whimpered.

"You big baby." Flora muttered, rolling her eyes. "I don't attack someone unless it is to defend myself or someone in need. Be lucky I didn't break it along with your legs."

Helia was impressed with the female and wanted to get to know her better. "What is your name, maiden?"

"Flora your highness." She answered, focusing on the King.

When their eyes locked, the two thought. 'Have I met him/her before? Those eyes look so beautiful and familiar.'

"Flora…" He called out her name and liked how easily it rolled off his tongue. "Attacking a guard is a serious offence. Do you know what your punishment will be?"

Not taking their eyes away from each other, she whispered. "What is it, your highness?"

He thought about it for a few seconds before coming up with something. "You will become my personal servant."

"What?" Palladium plus the guards asked, surprised.

"I believe she didn't mean to take the food without paying for it but she shouldn't have run away when the guards confronted her." Helia got to his feet. Walking to Flora, he continued. "You two will be punished for your parts in the situation. Release her immediately."

They let her before Helia ordered them to leave the room. The royal advisor left the men, leaving Helia and Flora to themselves.

Only a few metres away from each other, Flora asked. "Your highness, how long will I be your personal servant?"

"Till I see it fit to end your stay here." He replied, taking her right hand into his. Planting a kiss on it, Helia said. "You seem so familiar to me. Where do I know you from?"

"I am not sure but I get the feeling we have met before too." Flora cooed.

"Let me escort you to your room." Helia offered. Flora nodded.

It took a few minutes before they reached the top of the palace. There were two rooms in the pathway with two guards standing before one of them.

The blue hair male went to the first door before turning to Flora. "This will be your room for time been. Hope it is suited to your liking."

"Thank you, your highness." She whispered, feeling something strange come over her. 'What is this I am feeling? Whatever it is, I am going to stay around a while to figure out what affect this guy has on me.'

The blue hair teen nodded. "My room is next to yours. You are to start working tomorrow morning and is to only take orders from me."

'What affect does this girl have over me? I don't know what is it but I am going to find out soon enough.'

Flora entered her room, feeling confused about what happened today. She was walking through the streets of downtown now she is staying the Palace for who knows how long.

Helia walked to his room, thinking. 'Flora. I have a feeling that she will change my life unlike any other.'

Hope this is worthy of continuing.
