Disclaimer: I own nothing not the characters or the picture, only the imagination for this story.

In the sandy kingdom of Fiore, in a palace room the Princess, Levy sat on her bed looking out her window, she was dressed in her favourite pink dress a lot of her skin showing as a relief from the sun, it got very hot during the day and even at night. Her pet panther Lily lay at the end of her bed, he was pure black except from a scar around one of his eyes, he got that before Levy found him and brought him home, back when Levy's parents were alive. Her mother passed from sickness when Levy was ten but her father died when she was fifteen at her uncles hand. Levy had instantly been locked in her room where she had been trapped for the past two years since her uncle had taken over the throne, she was only let out under heavy guard and only to the gardens, she had one servant who came in bringing her food and cleaning her room daily, the servant became her best friend Lucy, a blonde girl always in a blue dress.

Her uncle had almost taken Lily away too but she begged him not to, knowing Lily had never hurt or attacked anyone he allowed it, figuring Lily was too tame. Her uncle however was still not satisfied with her imprisonment and had her chained by her left ankle to her bed, she could walk around her room, but she couldn't leave unless it was unlocked and only her uncle had the key.

Lucy knocked on her door as she always did.

"Enter" Levy said, she had told Lucy she didn't need to knock, she was a prisoner after all but Lucy never listened and always reminded her no matter what she was the princess, a princess her uncle had plans for she just wasn't sure what.

"Good evening Princess Levy"

"Good Evening Lucy, you know you can call me Levy"

"I know Princess but I won't" she says with a smile bringing lunch in with her, placing it on her bed, Levy picks at a sandwich, giving some to Lily who had woken up to the smell of food, Lucy patted him and got to work cleaning, not that Levy ever made a mess but she neatened her book case overflowing with books, picked up dirty laundry and mopped the floor.

"Anything new happen Princess?" Lucy asked.

"No, I finished another book I'm going to need more"

"I'll take some and bring some back tonight, will that be alright?"

"Thank you Lucy" Levy says with a smile and looks back out the window, Lucy wanted nothing more than to grab Princess Levy and tell her not to worry she would get out of this she would swear it. but instead she takes the tray, piles books up on top and exits the Princess's room, almost walking into the Sultan, Lucy quickly curtsies as low as she can to him.

"Continue" he says absently obviously about to enter the princesses room, Lucy has no choice but to hurry away, praying for the princesses safety.
