Review Thanks:

notyouraverageblond- Thank you for reviewing!

Eimme- I am so sorry about the confusion. Harry will get braver sooner! It's just this is a challenge fic and I took it up. The challenge was to have Harry as the Cinderella character and Hermione as the royal. That's why I am doing it this way. However, I am so happy I got a new reviewer! Thank you so much! Here is the next chapter!

Power214063- Clarification: 1) James died in the 1st chapter. 2) Harry was wearing James's old clothes. 3) He is wearing his father's clothes. I AM SO SORRY THAT CONFUSED YOU! I apologize over and over again. This chapter might clear it up!

AN: I HAD A GREAT BIRTHDAY! Sorry, I am finally 14! This chapter tends to focus on Hermione's battle with her father but the next chapter will involve Harry and his battle with Petunia. And I'm sorry two of these events are out of order. I had to work it in that way fro the purpose of my story. But next chapter will be up soon! It's almost finished.

Chapter three- first encounters?

Hermione rode her horse to where the two men argued over what seemed to be a peasant. "You dare to raise your voice to a lord, sir?" Asked Hermione as she climbed down off her (Harry's) horse and the men stopped.

Harry raised his eyes to the princess then bowed. "Your highness, this man refuses to allow me to buy back my servant." Responded Harry gesturing to the man pulling the cage full of men.

The man looked at Harry with a snare and then at the princess with a straight face. "These slaves have already been sold to the Americans. They are to be shipped there today."

Hermione looked at Harry and said, "Why you want back a servant? You can just buy a new one; a younger more useful servant, rather an old worn out one. Besides if you sold him in the first place he must have done something wrong."

Hermione watched as Harry shook his head in disagreement and it seemed to Hermione a little outraged, but she could tell that he was to gentleman-like to show it to much or to act on it.

Harry looked at Hermione in astonishment. "Your highness if I may," asked Harry. Hermione shook her head to signal him to go on.

"If you suffer your people to be ill-educated, and their manners corrupted from infancy, and then punish them for those crimes to which their first education disposed them, what else is to be concluded, sire, but that you first make thieves and then punish them?" Finished Harry as he preached to the crowd that has gathered in particular the Princess Hermione and the man driving the cage.

Hermione looked astonished. "Well if that is the case, I demand you let this man's servant go." With that, the men took the money and let author go.

Hermione then walked over to Harry and said, "You must be vastly intelligent to be able to quote Thomas Moore and Utopia."

Harry stared at Hermione. "The princess had read Utopia?"

Hermione circled Harry and replied; "Personally I found it dull and vastly overrated."

Harry looked at Hermione with a disappointed look and said, "Thomas Moore's work in anything but vastly overrated."

Just then Author walked you to Harry and Harry instructed Author to prepare the horses and that they would leave at once.

Harry walked towards the horses and Hermione followed him. "Sir, may I ask you for your name? I thought I had known all the nobles in the court."

Harry stopped and looked at Hermione. "I don't belong to this court. I am here visiting my cousin. And my name is nothing of much importance."

Hermione asked, "Who is you cousin so I can call upon that person to learn your name?" When Harry just turned and started to walk away, Hermione ran in front f him and said, "Please a name sir… any name… please…"

Harry's eyes looked into Hermione's and Harry couldn't help but tell her a name. "My name is… James… Sir James Potter…"

Hermione smiled at Harry and said, "Now that wasn't too hard was it? Nice to meet you, James."

All of a sudden, Hermione's name was called. Hermione looked over to the path entrance that led to the castle. There stood her mother, her two younger sisters, and her most trusted servant. "Hermione…" said Queen Emma.

"Father wants a word with you, sister," said Luna as Kristi nodded her head in agreement. Hermione simply rolled her eyes and said, "When doesn't he? I'll be right there."

Hermione went to say goodbye to "James", but when she turned around he was gone. Hermione walked to her mother but all she could think about was "James."

When Hermione reached her father, King Daniel stood up and glared at Hermione as she sat down on the steps to the throne. "Where have you been? What makes you think you can pull stunts like the one you did this morning? We have to discuss the contract with Spain." Asked her father in a loud voice.

Hermione looked at her father as her mother told him to calm down before he had a heart attack. "What are you going to do about it? I mean you can't stop me from doing the things I do. And I refuse to marry the Prince of Spain."

King Daniel looked appalled. "You will marry the Prince of Spain whether or not you like it or I'll… I'll…" Said the king in anger as he took as seat on his throne to calm down.

Hermione said, "Or you'll what? Ship me off to the Americas like some peasant?" Hermione got up and walked to her father.

The King got up, looked at his wife, then Luna and Kristi, and finally back at Hermione and said, " I will… I willsimply deny you the crown and . . . live forever."

Hermione got up, shook her head, and said, "That would not be so bad," as she left the room followed by her most trusted servant and her two younger sisters.

AN: The next chapter with be up soon I promise! The next chapter will involve Harry and his battle with Petunia. And I'm sorry two of these events are out of order. I had to work it in that way fro the purpose of my story. But next chapter will be up soon! It's almost finished. PLEASE R AND R!
