CHAPTER 1: Prologue

"Hotaru wait!" yelled a brunette whom she resents as her sister.

"Could you go any slower? We are walking for five hours now," she yelled back furiously, "drenched in rain, walking nowhere ,you walking so slow with your nagging voice… you bloody idiot...no help from…" she yelled back furiously as she stomped her foot on the ground, trying to walk through the merciless thunder storm.

"But can we have some―" the brunette tried to retort but immediately cut off by her sister.

"Stop whining you idiotic freak, its dark already, its raining too hard, we're soaked and I don't know where the hell we are." she didn't continue anymore for she was tired and she knows its best not to waste her energy anymore on her little sister. Wandering in a cold, dark forest, drenched and tired, she knows its best not to waste energy anymore.

"Hotaru wait, please!" pleaded her brunette sister who is meters away from her,

"I'm scared please, slow down, please, Hotaru…" hearing this, Hotaru halted and waited for her sister whose walking a little too slowly for her liking.

"Walk faster or else I'll leave you!" she threatened.

Right now we can see two sisters, one annoyed and stomping and the other, walking rather too slowly and obviously tired. Twins Hotaru and Mikan are stranded in a forest, drenched and lost.

It is odd, knowing that they are twins; yet, both are very different in appearance and personality. Hotaru has short, pixie-like black hair with big mesmerizing violaceous eyes. Compared to her sister, she's more, reserved. Always the quiet one, stoic and cryptic, but nonetheless the responsible one. Her sister, totally opposite. Energetic, bubbly and very…charismatic. Her ever-fluorescent smile never fails to radiate joy to the people around her. With her long auburn hair and hazel-colored eyes, she is as beautiful as her sister herself.

They never shared the same likes and dislikes except that love both their parents dearly.

Hotaru is the innovative one whilst Mikan, is a very people person. She prefers to be more outgoing unlike her sister who almost never leaves her room. Mikan is the carefree one whilst Hotaru always keep herself composed.

They are very different from each other but they both love each other very much. They may have big differences but love always comes through between them though Hotaru rarely shows it.

And no one has ever broken through that. Even their countless suitors and their professions of undying love.

Yet now, they are both tested. Tested to what they are to take; their duties to their family or to their heart.

They should be the ones to bring honor and glory to their family and people but they ran away. They ran away from home, ran away from their mother and father, ran away from their people and kingdom and ran away from the responsibilities princesses should fulfill…
