Chapter two: Yep you guess it The Princess Bride. That's Why I didn't put a tile. It would of given it away. In conclusion the title will be 'True Love'
"This is a true story," says grandpa. "And I remember very well, like if it were yesterday." Grandpa gives a smile and looks at the storybook page. He sighs as both Hilary and Dawn look at each other.
"Once upon a time, long ago there was a small village where life was peaceful and time was spent doing chores around the house," grandpa reads. "In this town there lived a young maiden named Buffy who played with the household farm boy. In the summer they played in the lake. During the fall they played in the leaves that had fallen from the trees. But in the winter, they stayed inside. It was too cold for them to play outside. They would sit by the fire place and make up stories about pirates and princesses."
"What's the farm boys name?" ask Dawn. The two girls grew attentive of grandpa's reply.
"Oh, yes," says grandpa. "His name was Xander."
"Xander," says Hilary looking at Dawn.
"That's a very strange name," says Dawn. "What happens next?"
"Well, the two grew up and grew apart," says Grandpa. "There comes a time when male and female change there way of thought. Buffy became more demanding but Xander stayed the same. He did everything she told him to do."
"Farm boy get me some water," ask Buffy to Xander who was brushing the horse's mane.
"As you wish," Xander replies. He quickly grabs the bucket and heads up the mountain to the well. Buffy heads back into the house to tend to her father who is very ill.
"Papa are you warm enough," ask Buffy. "How can I make you more comfortable?"
"It's okay child," replies her father Hank. "I'm fine as I am." He takes a breath and signals Buffy to sit by his side.
"My princess," says Hank as he touches her face. "You are the world to me. I wish..." Hank begins to cough. Buffy gets him some water and he quickly drinks it.
"Are you okay?" she asks. Hank nods his head.
"Buffy you're old enough to know and understand my situation," says Hank. "I might not make it, but you will be cared for. Your Uncle Giles the one who brings you pretty dresses will take care of you."
"No, papa you will make it," says Buffy tears falling down her cheek.
"Listen," says Hank. "You have to be strong. For me." Buffy nods her head and Hank holds her in his arms. This would be last time that Buffy will hug her papa.
The front door opens and Xander enters with a bucket of water. Buffy looks at him and he sees the tears in her eyes. He grows concern and walks up to her. Buffy hides her head on her father's chest. Xander goes to check his pulse and feels nothing.
He bows his head and tries to pull Buffy away but she would not let him. Xander pulls harder and she begins to cry like a child. He pulls her close to him and shook her gently in his arms as she continues to sob for what seem for hours.
***********
A couple of day's later Buffy's uncle took care of the arrangement for the funeral and he began to sell all the stuff from the farm. All the animals were sold except for the black horse, which belong to the farm boy.
"Everything must go," says Giles. "It's in your fathers will."
"My father promised him that he could have this horse," says Buffy.
"All right," says Giles. "He can have the horse."
"Thank you," says Buffy giving Giles a kiss on the cheek. Uncle Giles heads to the carriage to prepare to leave.
"Thank you," says Xander.
"No, thank you," says Buffy to the farm boy and took his hand. "I don't think my papa would have made it this long if you weren't around for the both of us."
"I'm just farm boy," says Xander. "I didn't do much."
"Well you did," says Buffy still holding his hand. She looks down and lets go.
"Buffy it's time to go," yells uncle Giles.
"Well, you gotta go," says Xander.
"Come with us," Buffy ask.
"I can't," replies Xander in a monotone voice. "I've been meaning to visit my family. They sent for me about two weeks ago. I was going to tell your dad but..."
"I understand," replies Buffy. Xander with his hat lifts it up and nods his head. He then turns around and walks up to his horse. Buffy turns away and starts to walk to the carriage. She then stops.
"Farm boy," calls Buffy turning around. Xander turns around before he mounts his horse.
"Yes," replies Xander. She walks up to him.
"Could you..." Buffy attempts a last request but is top by Xander's lips on hers. He releases then touches her face.
"As you wish," says Xander with a grin. Buffy smiles then Xannder gets on his horse and rides away.
"That's not fair," says Dawn. "The are in love and he leaves her."
"Dawn, dear the story isn't over yet," says grandpa.
"She is so impatient," says Hilary with a smile.
"Hey," says Dawn.
"Can I continue," ask grandpa. They both nod and grandpa continues the story.
"Buffy and uncle Giles arrive at a grand castle with gates so enormous you'd think there were dragons kept inside of them. Buffy is confused about the home of her uncle. She thought to herself 'how could her uncle live in such a lush place.' Everything is to be explain in due time and as for Buffy she is to expect one very shocking secret."
"I'm a what?" says Buffy confuse by her surroundings.
"Yes," replies uncle Giles.
"No," says Buffy. "I can't be. That would make my mom a..."
"Your mother was a princess," says uncle Giles. "She refused to take her role as Princess when she married your father. This makes you a ..."
"A Princess," says Buffy finishing his line. "Why didn't anyone tell me about this?"
"I believe your mother wanted you to live a normal life," says uncle Giles. "You are the only blood heir to the throne."
************
Buffy's uncle explains all her duties that she must fulfill in becoming queen of this kingdom. Number one is to get married and become queen. Number two bare an heir. Number three rule the Kingdome.
In the last couple years Buffy has been trying to find the right suitor for her to marry and be able to become queen. All types of men from distant lands came to pursue her and each one failed the task to win her heart over.
Uncle Giles became hopeless. They spent three years searching for someone who has honor and loyalty to people and be able to rule as King beside his Queen. Uncle Giles knows exactly what was wrong. The suitors weren't right, that is true, but another man owns Buffy's heart.
"Hello dear old dad," says a tall dark haired man from the shadows.
"Liam," says uncle Giles. Buffy turns around from her chair to look at the man. "You remember Buffy."
"Yeah," replies Liam. "Your sisters daughter and heir to the throne by blood." He looks at Buffy with wild eyes. Uncle Giles stands in Liam's view of Buffy.
"You will not marry her," says Giles.
"Shouldn't that be her decision," says Liam as he walks over to Giles. "Rupert. What do you say?" Liam looks at Buffy with a grin on his face.
"But you're my cousin," says Buffy.
"Doesn't matter," says Liam nonchalantly. "We try to keep it the family."
"Enough!" says Giles. "He's my step-son. He is not of royal blood." Liam gives a frown to Giles.
"I may not be your real son," says Liam. "But I'm the only son you've got. Only a King can rule not a queen."
"He's right," says Giles. "It's against the law to let a queen rule."
"Now you see it my way," says Liam with smile.
"But over my dead body will I see you be crown as King of this Kingdome," says Giles with cold glare to Liam.
"There will be a King," says Buffy. "A king can't be King without a queen right. Then I'll be your queen uncle Giles." Both Liam and Giles jaws shot down.
"You can't do that," says Liam. "Can she?"
"Spoken like a queen," says Giles. Liam storms off out the room. Buffy quickly sits down then looks at Giles.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" ask Giles.
"Can it be done?" she asks.
"Yes," replies Giles.
"You've done so much for me these last three years," says Buffy. "I want to do something for you. This will allow you to rule your Kingdome."
"A simple party would have been nice," says Giles. "You don't have to do this."
"I want to," says Buffy getting up from her chair holding her uncle's hand.
"All right," says Giles patting her hands. "The wedding shall be in three days."
"Okay," replies Buffy with a smile. "I'll start making the arrangements uncle Giles."
"Buffy," calls Giles. "You could call me Rupert if you like."
"Can I call you Giles?" she asks.
"Okay," he replies.
"This is a true story," says grandpa. "And I remember very well, like if it were yesterday." Grandpa gives a smile and looks at the storybook page. He sighs as both Hilary and Dawn look at each other.
