Star grew up in a castle, with no connections to the outside world, and no one had even seen her until she was ten, when she competed in a parade.

People say she different, somewhat out of line, but as a princess she should be anything but wild.

Star lives way up in the tallest part of the castle.

I would describe her for you but nobody but the king and queen knows what she looks like.

Whenever she is out in public, she always has something covering her face, but we can always see her long blonde hair sweeping down her back.

Some people say that she is so ugly you can't look at her face without gaging, other people say that she is secretly a spirit from the dark forest but I just think she doesn't want to show her face so she can sneak out and fight monsters.

My name is Marco, I could say, she is somewhat 'attractive' but I have haven't actually met her, I would like to but I don't think it will happen.

My name is Star but, the people call me Olivia, I hate being princess, I hate the routine the posture and the stupid, tight, itchy dresses I would rather be free and happy.

I was walking down the streets, I passed the entrance to the dark lands I have always wondered what it was like.

I saw a boy sitting just outside the entrance looking into the dark lands and writing into a notepad.

I walked over to him and sat down next to him, he looked at me and smiled then got up and walked away.

"Wait" I said, he looked back at me and sat back down.

"Hi" I said, "what are you writing about", he just looked at me and said "Do you ever think about, I don't know… what it is like to umm…" he paused.

I looked at him and nodded I gestured for him to go on "what it would be like to live there, to be like them".

He looked at me and then back to dark lands "I wonder if they are free" I said.

He looked at me and said "my name is Marco" holding out his hand.

I smiled "I'm Sta…Olivia" I said shaking his hand.

One Day Later

"3 houses gone, 3 family's dead, one boy survived Marco, Sad Day, Curse the Dark forest" said the guard who announces the news.

Star cupped her mouth, tears streaming down her face, she ran to the entrance of the Dark forest as fast as she could, she saw him sitting, crying and ripping his notebook apart.

"Why did you do this, my family gone, I…I trusted you" he turned around and saw Star he looked at her and she looked at him.

Marco ran up to her and hugged her "There gone, there gone" said Marco crying "I know, I know" said Star trying to comfort him.

They stood there for a while. Then the bell on the tower rang. "Ummm I have to go" said Star.

"Why Olivia that's the bell for the princess?" said Marco raising an eyebrow, "Um well" said Star trying to come up with an excuse.

"I am the umm… Maid and I umm…have to go" she said.

She left Marco's arms and ran. "bye Marco" said Star "Wait said Marco 'take this".

He handed her a letter "but don't open it" said Marco "Wait until you are alone".

Star nodded. She ran to the castle and climbed back through her window, she ran to her wardrobe and took off her rags and threw on one of her least itchy dresses.

"Star dear" said her mother coming into her room "there is someone I want you to meet" she said.

A boy Star's age walked in, he had light brown hair with blue eyes, he was an inch shorter that Star.

"This is your future husband Star" said the queen.

Star was speechless. "F...Fut…Future husband?!" "Mum I'm only fourteen!?" said Star.

"I will leave you too alone" said the queen as she walked out of the room.

"My name is Nick" said the prince "Star".

"This was not my Idea you know" said Nick.

'Well you don't seem to be fazed about it" said Star "ok, I had to leave my home to marry you, you really don't think I have a loved one back home, and then my parents tell me I am marrying someone else, I had to break her heart, do you really don't think I am not fazed" said Nick quite enraged.

Star looked at him and the saw the sadness in his eyes.

"I'm... I'm sorry I didn't realise…. Sooo what was her name" said Star with a little giggle.

"Her name was Willow, she looked a lot like you, wait am I the only boy who has ever seen your face" said Nick.

"Actually Yes" said Star, "Well don't I feel special" Nick teased.

They talked until it was time for dinner, were the two families met at the table.

Nick sat next to Star they were quite good friends now, but they still didn't want to marry each other. After dinner they went to their separate rooms.
