Chapter One: Princess Courtney No More
CPOV
Today was another day of practice for me. My coronation is in two months but my royal associate, James insisted we needed to practice.
So here I am all dressed up in my coronation dress and hair done up ready to be crowned queen.
My dress was big and purple. It was my new favorite dress made for me. My long hair was braided and twisted up into a bun. My princess tiara resting on top of my head, I was ready for my crown.
"Princess Courtney are you ready," James asked. My royal associate is in charge of giving me off as queen and looking after me.
"Yes sir. Remind me again why we have to practice two months before my actual coronation?" I asked.
"So you are prepared for anything that might happen princess," James said linking arms with me.
We walked to the main courtyard where my mom and the prime minister were waiting to crown me queen of Costa Luna. The Prime Minister began his speech while I stood there bored. The crown was inches away from my head when it was knocked out of the Prime Ministers hands. General Davis, the king of another small nation like ours, was standing in the courtyard.
"Main rulers of Costa Luna, the Princess is too young to rule this nation. Sixteen is not such an age to take over. I have decided to declare myself President of The Costal Countries. Take them," he shouted at me.
James clamped on to my hand and began pulling me toward him. Suddenly the man my mother hired, Major Mason, jumped down from the second story and onto James. I ran toward my mom, but Major Mason pulled me down another corridor and to a stairway.
"Courtney, over here," my mom whispered from the bottom of the stairs.
"Mom, what's going on?" I demanded.
"I had a feeling General Davis would try something like this, so I had Major Mason assigned to assist us for the practice. It's a good thing he's here. You must go with him," mom said hugging me.
"Mom I want to stay with you," I said holding on.
"You must go with him. Nothing good will come of you staying with me. Just go," she said letting go of me. She took off her silver bracelet my father gave to her before he died.
"Never forget that you are a princess," she said putting it on my wrist and walking away. Major Mason led me to the roof and into a helicopter. We took off immediately.
"Where are we going," I demanded.
"Princess Courtney everything will be explained when we arrive." Major Mason said. We landed five minutes later. I walked to the elevator that was apparently waiting for me. The doors closed on me alone.
"Princess Courtney we have been expecting you," a voice said from behind me. I turned around to see a woman on a screen looking at me.
"Hello," I said scared.
"You are now under the custody and protection of the Princess Protection Program. It is sponsored by the world's royal families to protect princesses like you, by hiding them from danger and harm," the woman explained.
The elevator stopped and the doors opened to me. The same woman I was talking to turned around and walked up to me.
"Princess Courtney we will get started right away," the woman said leading me to an escalator.
"With what," I asked.
"Getting you ready to protect you, there are four stages," The woman said.
"How will you protect me?" I asked.
"By hiding you where General Davis will not look, we are going to send you to America," the woman said leading me to a room where several girls were trying on clothes or getting their hair done. This was an odd room to be in.
"First we change your hair and clothes. Then we place you where no one will recognize you," she said sitting me down in a chair. A woman was undoing my bun and the braids in my hair. I didn't mind her undoing my hair but when she picked up a pair of scissors I freaked out.
"No stop!" I said holding my hands up.
"I want to see Major Mason. I only trust him," I said.
A few minutes later I was sitting in another room with him.
"I want to go back. There is no way I'm staying with someone I don't know. I'm not letting them cut my hair off, and I certainly don't want to be here," I said venting.
"I'm sorry princess but you can't go back. I have to protect you, and if it makes you feel better I have been given orders to have you stay with me," Major Mason said.
"It doesn't make me feel better that my people will think I have abandoned them," I said remaining resistant.
"You would be easily killed princess. I'm sorry but you can't go back," Major Mason said walking out of the room.
I sat there for a few more minutes, but got back up and walked back to the chair I was sitting in before and sat back down.
"You may proceed," I said as the woman started cutting my hair. I watched as my very long hair was cut all the way up to my shoulders. My brown hair was so short. I could barely take looking at myself in the mirror so I avoided looking at myself as the dressed me.

A few hours later after a long plane ride I was in a place called Louisiana with Major Mason heading for his home.
I really want my life back.
