Chapter 1
It was another day in the kingdom of the Southern Isles, as Prince Hans was preparing for his daily routine. But, life wasn't easy as he was the youngest of thirteen sons, which meant he had twelve older brothers: Wolfgang, Carl, Linus, George, Josef, Mathias, Luke, Egon, Peter, Hugo, Victor, and James. He was the son of King Sebastian and Queen Emilia, who treated none of the brothers, except Wolfgang, differently. Wolfgang was the royal Prince and was well respected. The others, however, picked on each other constantly, and Hans was picked on the most. And two of his brothers were there where he was.
Victor: well, well, well, isn't it my little brother. Still in dream land?
Hans: since when was I in dream land?
Victor: ever since you started thinking there was a chance that you'd be king.
George: look whose talking? You were exactly like him, only you have somewhat of a chance.
Hans: are you saying that I don't have a chance!?
George: Hans, if you had a chance, it would be very, very slim. Plus, you get a little emotional at times.
Hans: I do not get emotional!
George: you did just now.
Victor: which is why you'll never be king.
Hans: up yours
Victor: that is not how a king speaks either
George: uh, Victor, I was trying to give him advice, because you cannot be king if you are that way. Trust me, your time will come.
Victor: no it won't
Hans: can't wait
Victor: you're waitng for nothing
Just as Victor said that, the Queen came to send some news.
Emilia: Victor, quit picking on your brother! Hans, George is right, your time will come, but the chances are slim.
George: wow, mother, you said what I already told him
Emilia: I know. Plus there was a letter for Hans that is in the library right now.
Hans: thanks, mom. I wonder what it's about.
Emilia: who knows.
Victor: it won't be about you having a actual royal position that's for sure.
Emilia: Victor!
George: Victor, will you shut up about that!? You're becoming a nuisance with that.
Hans: don't worry guys, I'll prove him and some others wrong.
Victor: (sarcastically) sure you will
Just as Hans leaves, Queen Emilia promises Victor that if Hans does get such a letter then she will laugh hysterically at Victor for having absolute doubt on Hans. But she did know others doubted him, including the King, but he did that because Hans was last in line to the throne.
