The Princess & The Playboy
Prologue

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once upon a time there was this prince. He was riding his horse one day when he discovered a little pink haired princess crying. "Why do you cry little one?" asked the prince. "Because my parents have died and now I have no one." replied the little princess. "Now that is not true. One day you will find your prince but you have to keep you noble heart." the prince said wiping away the young girl's tears. "Where do you live" asked the tiny girl. "In a castle in the sky" the crimson haired prince replied. "That's impossible"she replied. "No, it's not, just trust your heart and one day it will lead you there." he said before he gave her a kiss and then he left. The princess was impressed by this mysterious prince that she vowed to find him when she grew up.

After comforting the little princess the prince went back to his castle. Later that night the wind was howling and the thunder roared outside while a knock could barely be heard coming from the castle's main door. The prince answered it since all of his servants had retired for the night. A man with purple hair wearing peasant clothing begged him for shelter from the storm for the night. The prince denied his request not knowing who this peasant was. After being refused the peasant returned to the woods near the castle. "Now you have shown your true colors Touga. You shall now be cursed with the demeanor of a playboy. You and all of your servants shall be cursed to remain in the castle forever or until you can truly love someone and have their love returned, but who could ever fall in love with a playboy?" Dios asked..

Ten years later at Ohtori Academy Utena, a rose haired girl wearing a boys school uniform was eating lunch with her friend Anthy and her pet Chuchu outside under one of the many trees on campus. Wakaba decided to join them and jumped on Utena's back. "Utena, my love" she cried "Please get off, Wakaba, I'm not in the mood right now ok?" said Utena. "Ok." Wakaba replied. Anthy and Wakaba were talking when Utena started thinking about the meeting with her prince many years ago.

"I live in a castle in the sky but if you trust your heart it will lead you there one day." her beautiful crimson haired prince had told her.

"Hey Utena are you ok?" Wakaba said waving a hand in front of her waking her up from her day dream. "Oh yeah I'm fine." the other two girls didn't believe her though she had been spacing out a lot lately and it wasn't like her. "Are you sure you're ok? You haven't been yourself lately." Anthy said. "Will you two quit worrying about me? I'm fine." Utena replied.

Unknown to the girls Akio was watching them from his office window. 'That Utena really is something different. I will have her as mine one day. She is so noble and strong minded it is amazing really how she has retained it all these years. Most people lose it early in life. Anyway my plan to get her will begin tomorrow.' he thought.

That night at Utena and Anthy's dorm room Utena was sitting at the window looking out at the stars. "It was about your prince again wasn't it?" Anthy asked. "What?" Utena looked confused. "Earlier at lunch when you spaced out." Anthy said. "Oh yeah it was." Utena said. "Care to explain?" Anthy asked. "Maybe later." Utena answered. "Oh come on let me in on it. I won't tell anyone ok?" Anthy said. "Promise?" Utena said. "Yes" was her answer. "Oh all right I'll tell you." Utena finally gave in.
