I updated! OMG, when I checked my reviews, I was surprised to see I had 111 reviews! Thank you everyone!

Disclaimer: I do not own Ella Enchanted

Let the chapter begin!

I woke up in a cold sweat. I sat up, rubbing my head. I felt relief wash over me and a grin started. Ella wasn't dead; she wasn't among the dead. She was alive and well and…

Married to an old rich man.

I stopped grinning. She still wasn't mine. She still belonged to someone else and never would be mine. I would never have Ella of Frell in my arms, never to hold and tell her a million times how much I love her. She was gone from me. She was dead to me now. She could never be mine. Never.

"Oh Charmont! Get out of bed, you lazy prince!" I jumped a mile as my sister's voice penetrated my thoughts. "Mother is sending us to some place and she wants you up and ready for our upcoming day! Now get up!"

I laughed. "All right, sister. But only on one condition. If I do not have to ride a carriage with you."

Cecilia laughed outside my door. "I wish! But, I'm not riding in the carriage…" I heard a familiar mischievous note in Cecilia's voice. I frowned. When she had that in her voice, she was going to do something Mother and Father would highly disapprove.

"Cecilia, how would you go then? I doubt you would walk the whole way," I said with a slight frown.

"Can I come in?" Cecilia asked.

"Sure."

Cecilia came in and shut the door. She sat down on my couch. "Well…I'm thinking of riding a horse…"

I laughed. Mother and Father wouldn't dare let her.

Cecilia frowned. "Char!" She cried exasperated. She had a exasperation look and her eyes looked a little angry.

I held my hand up. "I am sorry, sister. But…think of it. Mother and Father let you…," I said, waving my hand toward her, "…ride a horse? Ha! It would be 'unladylike' and nothing that 'a young princess' would ever do." I laughed again.

Cecilia's eyes flashed angrily. "Ah, be quiet, Char!" She hurled a pillow at me, which I caught easily. She grinned. "Good catch, Your Majesty," she said sarcastically. " I never knew a prince could catch for himself without one of his attendants catching it for him."

I laughed. Cecilia, at a young age, had teased me because I had once asked one of my attendants to write all my letters for me. From then on, she said that if I had ever done my own work, she would give the servants a heart attack.

"Will you ever forget that?" I asked while laughed. She just grinned and shook her head.

"Of course not!" she exclaimed, faking surprise. We both laughed.

A pounding noise was heard on my door. "Char! Cecilia! Are you ready?" Christopher asked impatiently.

I turned to Cecilia questionably. "He's coming too?"

Cecilia nodded. "Yes, Father thinks it would be a good thing for him. He needs things other than being pampered." She rolled his eyes and I laughed. Christopher at an early age never had to work. I'm not saying he's a spoiled brat; just that if he ever did work, he would pull a muscle.

"Is Michael coming?" I asked. Being close in age, Christopher and Michael never did anything without the others. Then Tyler and Kyle always paired themselves up. Cecilia and I ended up together. I didn't mind; she had a sense of humor I wish every lady had and is smart, unlike some ladies I know of. Also, if going into the sun, she doesn't wear a veil in fear that the sun would burn her face.

Cecilia shook her head. She looked amused. "How will Christopher survive without Michael?"

I laughed. True. But what would he do without Christopher?

Cecilia read my thoughts. "You know that he isn't much of a warrior, right?" I nodded. "Even though he acts like he is in front of Christopher. Well, Father is going to make him train with the guards. He said it might 'toughen him up a bit.'"

I nodded. Father wouldn't allow any of us to be wimps. And here I am crying over a girl. Pathetic.

"Then, let us go," I said. Cecilia looked at my nightgown with a raised eyebrow. "Err…well, after I get changed. Out you go now," I commanded.

Cecilia curtsied. "Yes, Your Majesty," she said sarcastically. She left.

I quickly changed and opened my door. Christopher had been leaning on it so he fell down. "Ow…warn a fellow when you open a door, all right?" He said, rubbing his arm as he stood.

I nodded. "Come. I haven't had breakfast."

Christopher grinned. "Louise has prepared a feast, I swear!"

He walked downstairs but I hesitated as I looked at the stair rail. It looked polished. Perfect for sliding. I glanced around and was relieved no one was there. Then, without a second thought, I slid down. It was the same feeling I always felt. I never felt so free before. I felt almost as if I were flying down, the air blowing on my face and tossing my hair back. The ride was long and just so carefree. While sliding, nothing else matter.

I reached the end and felt a pang of disappointment. Now, I would go back and won't be free and have this free feeling.

I slid of at the end and sighed, looking back up.

"Ahem," came a voice. I turned and there stood Christopher, looking amused. "I don't see how you can enjoy something like that. Sliding down banisters? Never thought a prince that was becoming king would do such a…thing." He looked like he wanted to say childish but held his tongue.

I shrugged. "I find it very interesting. Come now. Doesn't Louise have breakfast prepared?"

Christopher nodded and we both walked to the kitchen where Louise was chopping up some tomatoes.

She dropped into a low curtsy. "Good morning, Your Highness."

I nodded. "Good morning, Louise."

Louise looked at me. "The king told me that you would eat once you go to your destination. Said those who sleep late will eat late."

I frowned in dismay. "Oh, Louise. As the prince and future ruler of Kyrria, I order you to feed my breakfast right at this moment." I felt my stomach growl from the lack of food.

Louise frowned. "Now, sire, your father ordered not to feed you or I would be dismiss. King's orders." I could tell she was nervous. I could dismiss her too if she didn't feed me. But so would Father if she did.

I sighed. "All right, Father wins this time. But I thought the balls were already enough punishment."

Christopher laughed behind me. "You probably only went for the food!" He laughed.

I grinned. "I didn't have time to. Never have I seen so many ladies so eager to dance!"

Christopher laughed. "Ah, but with the future king of Kyrria, they would kiss your royal boots!" We both laughed.

Cecilia appeared at the door. "Are you two coming? Father will be angry that we are late."

"Coming," we both responded.

Louise walked up to me and slipped me one traveler's bread and a muffin. "Here, sir. Don't tell the king, please don't. But I would hate to see you die of hunger," she whispered.

I smiled. "Thank you, Louise. But actually," I said as I put the food in my cloak, "Father could never dismiss you. Your cooking is far too good."

She laughed. "Off with you!"

I laughed and left.

I went outside to see Christopher and Cecilia arguing. I sighed. I walked up and heard the last part of what Cecilia had said angrily, "…ride a horse if I want!"

Christopher rolled his eyes. "And against Father's wishes? Cecilia, Father won't take this news well."

Cecilia's eyes flashed. "Let me worry about that. You worry about your own behind, you royal pampered boy."

I saw Christopher suck in his breath. I sighed again. Cecilia and her tongue.

"Sister! Brother! Come, we haven't even reached our destination yet and we have begun to bicker!" I said, trying to ease things up.

They both just glared at me. I sighed again. "All right, let us make a compromise. Cecilia, you shall ride in the carriage," she opened her mouth to protest. "But on the way back, you can ride a horse. Deal?"

Cecilia and Christopher glared at each other and said through clenched teeth, "Deal."

I sighed. This was going to be a long ride.

After sitting down, I found myself in the middle. Cecilia and Christopher both glared out of the window. I wanted a window seat also. I cleared my throat.

"Don't even think about it," Cecilia said through clenched teeth. I closed my mouth.

Christopher spoke up, "You know, Char, I heard that being too independent is bad for a lady. High blood level, insanity…maybe Cecilia is suffering from this. Perhaps she should be like other ladies and do what men tell them to do."

Cecilia said angrily, "First of all, you idiot, no man tells me what to do. And second, you are too dumb to even be a man, much less a boy. More like a pampered baby. And thirdly, I heard being a selfish pampered boy could do effects to the brain."

They both glared at each other and then looked out of the window.

I cleared my throat nervously. "Well, now, look at this. Us three are sitting together and all our names start with the same letter! How funny…" I said nervously.

Cecilia said, "Oh yes, Char! Some people could have names such as creepy, condescension, catastrophic, and-"

Christopher butted in, "Well excuse me, Lady Disdain, but why are you talking about yourself?"

Cecilia lost all control of herself. She swung her fist towards Christopher's mouth angrily. I blocked it with my hand. "Cecilia, calm down!" I said. Things were getting out of hand.

I held her back as she began, or tried to, attack Christopher. "Let me go, Char! Let me make a dent on his face! C'mon! Or are you scared that a mere girl can hurt him?"

Christopher looked angry. "Scared? Me? Ha! Let her go, Char, I can handle one pathetic lady."

Cecilia screamed in rage but sank back in her seat. Christopher laughed. "See? Who is the scared one now?"

Cecilia ignored him. He continued. "Ha! Chicken! Admit it, you are scared to admit defeat! Ha!"

Cecilia's fists clenched but I doubt Christopher noticed. "Ha ha, Lady Disdain, see? Perhaps I am not the pampered one. Perhaps the lady is. Perhaps the lady needs to go to finishing school. Maybe I shall bring it up with Father…"

Suddenly, Cecilia's fist slammed around me and before I could stop it, hit Christopher right in the nose.

"Ugh!" Christopher held his nose in pain. Blood began to leak out. I handed him a hanker chief.

Cecilia leaned back and folded her arms over her chest. "Be happy it wasn't your jaw," she muttered. "Although that is what I was aiming for."

Christopher began to curse as I could only watch. Christopher then stated something but it was unclear. "What?" I asked.

Christopher spoke slowly, "Ah anna hell ather ah-bout is. Eh end ooh to inising cool."

"What are you saying, Christopher?" I asked. Not one word made sense. I could only guess: I (don't know) tell Father about this. The rest was gibberish.

Christopher groaned. He then spoke and it was much clearer. "Ah am going to tell Father ah-bout this. He send you to finishing school."

Cecilia twirled and looked at him. "You wouldn't dare!"

Christopher grinned. "Ah will and I Al."

"I Al?" I asked.

"SHALL!" Christopher screamed.

"Oh," I said. Shall.

Cecilia's eyes flashed dangerously. "You wouldn't dare if you don't want to lose your jaw."

Christopher and Cecilia glared at each other. I sighed. Things weren't going so well.

Christopher's nose wasn't broken and was soon back to normal. But that didn't stop the glares he sent Cecilia.

The carriage stopped. Cecilia looked out the window and a surprised look came over her face. "We're at the old castle," she said softly.

Christopher snorted. "You don't have to inform us, we can see by ourselves."

Cecilia's eyes flashed again. The door than opened and the footman stood there. Cecilia walked out of the carriage and I followed. Christopher came out and we all looked at the old castle.

"I wonder why Father sent us here," Christopher muttered.

A man, about Father's age, cam to us and bowed. His hair, though, was mostly gray and his eyes were gray. He was tall and skinny and about the height of me. "Your Majesties," he muttered. "I am Lord William.."

Christopher and I bowed and Cecilia curtsied. I decided to introduce ourselves. "Well, Lord William, as you probably know, I am Prince Charmont, this is my brother, Prince Christopher, and my sister, Princess Cecilia."

William nodded. "Your Majesties, your Father is thinking of selling the old castle to me but decided to leave the decision up to you three," there was a little anger in his voice. I suppose he just wanted the old castle.

Cecilia immediately spoke up, "No."

Christopher snorted. "I want to leave so yes, let him have it."

Both of them looked at me. "Err…why not look through the castle?"

Both shrugged but followed me. John began to follow but I held up my hand. "Sir, we would wish to explore by ourselves."

William's nostrils flared a little but nodded and bowed. "As Your Majesty wishes."

We walked inside and closed the door. Cecilia turned to me and said, "There is no way we are giving this castle to him."

"Why not?" I asked.

Cecilia snorted. "Something about him…he's one of those stuck up nobles," she glanced at Christopher. "Like some people I know."

Christopher flushed but before he could say anything that would unleash Cecilia's anger on him, I said quickly, "Let's just go and look around."

Christopher nodded but there was a glint of anger in his eyes. Cecilia noticed and just rolled her eyes.

We walked around and I remembered Ella and I walking through the castle, looking for that secret passage.

While looking into rooms, not one of us tried to start a conversation.

Finally, I began to get bored. I suppressed a yawn. I looked into another room and inspected it.

Finally, I guess Cecilia couldn't take the silence anymore, because she turned to Christopher and asked, her eyes tight, "Why do you hate me so much?"

I coughed and Christopher looked surprised and shocked. He recovered and said, "Me? No, the real question is why you hate me! I always try to be nice-"Cecilia snorted, "-but you always have to be sarcastic and throw a remark at me."

Cecilia folded her arms over her chest. "I only throw a remark at you, brother, because you always make a remark about me, how unladylike I am. And fighting whether or not I could ride a horse!"

Christopher frowned. "That wouldn't be what a lady does. But you don't always have to go calling me a pampered royal boy."

Cecilia studied him for a moment. "You never leave the castle if you can help it. You always have servants surrounding you every moment of your life practically."

We looked through a room in silence. As we left and I closed the door behind me, Christopher said, "I never had a daring or outgoing streak like you, Cecilia. I suppose I am self preserved. I…I guess the outside world frightens me a little. I could be assassinated outside of the castle; inside, I'm safe."

Cecilia frowned. "You…scared?"

Christopher looked sheepish. "Well, yes."

Cecilia laughed. "And all these years, I thought you were a non-scared bully!"

They both laughed. I sighed. Finally, they were settling their differences. Cecilia heard me sigh and nudged Christopher playfully. A week ago, Cecilia wouldn't even dare be near him.

"Is His Royal Majesty bored?" Cecilia said in a gushy voice, faking worried. "We cannot have a prince bored!"

Christopher laughed. He bowed mockingly. "Oh yes, Highness. Forgive us! Do not behead us!" Both of them laughed and I rolled my eyes.

Before, they had wanted to claw each other's eyes out. Now, they acted more like sister and brother.

We all laughed. We went to the indoor garden Ella and I had went to and sat on the bench.

Christopher and Cecilia talked, switching the topic from dragons to kingdoms to ogres and on and on.

Cecilia said, "You know, we never got along this well since…ever." Her tone of voice was amazed and a little hint of happiness lingered in it.

Christopher failed to notice. He laughed. "You know, you're right! Even from my earliest memories, we haven't been…acting kindly as siblings do."

I laughed then. "Not all siblings get along, Christopher."

We laughed. Cecilia said, "Well, I'm glad we all finally get along. We three C's have to stick together, no matter what!" She then jumped up and said dramatically, "Through riches and through poor!"

Christopher jumped up too. He extended his hand. "Through sickness and through health!"

They both looked at me and I sighed. I stood up and said, "Through…err…good times and bad."

Cecilia laughed and put her hand in the middle of us. "We'll stick together!"

Christopher and I laughed but put our hands on top of hers. When we removed them, I said while laughing, "Well, good sister, that was an interesting speech."

We all collapsed into laughter, doubling over laughing. I have never seen my brother and sister laugh…together.

Cecilia gasped for air, clutching her side. "How unladylike of me," she muttered and we all laughed again.

Finally, we controlled ourselves and just lied on the floor, staring upwards. I decided to speak, breaking the silence. "What are we going to do with the castle? Sell it or keep it? Father is trusting our decision."

We all turned over so our backs faced upwards. Cecilia put her elbows on the floor and put her hands on her face. "Well…I think we should keep it. This was where Father was born. And besides," she said, wriggling her eyebrows, "this is where Christopher and I settled our differences and finally were actually nice to one another. It's a landmark."

I laughed. Christopher grinned. "Well, Cecilia, I'll have to agree with you. I don't want to sell it; it is way too fun to sell it to some weird man."

We all laughed again and then they turned to me. Cecilia nudged Christopher. "Uh-oh, Char can override our votes since he is the future king of Kyrria."

Christopher laughed. "And who will be his queen? I would like her vote on our side!"

I felt my smile vanish and saw Cecilia's did too. Christopher looked to our fallen faces. "What? What did I say?" Then he looked at me. "Char…are you eloping?"

My jaw dropped and Cecilia's eyes widened. She laughed a little but it wasn't a happy one. Just a surprised one. "Elope? Char? Those words don't equal up." She said, her eyes still huge.

Christopher frowned, thinking. "Well…then why are you both all sad?"

Cecilia and I exchanged looks that clearly said, "Should we tell him?"

Cecilia's eyes said yes. She trusted him, I realized. How odd…before, she would never have trusted him with a mere thought, for that matter.

I took a deep breath and began to tell Christopher of Ella and…well, everything I had told Cecilia. He listened and watched me carefully. Cecilia's eyes filled with tears when I mentioned Lady Eleanor dying but she kept nodding for me to continue.

When I finished, Christopher looked thoughtful and glanced at Cecilia. "Wow. Char…I never knew…I'm…I'm so sorry."

I held up my hand. "It is all right, brother. Nothing is your fault. It's mine. I mean, I fell in love with the minx. There is no other place for blame except for me."

Cecilia glanced at me sideways before she turned fully to Christopher. "I have been telling Char here to go search for Ella and ask her for the truth, looking her straight in the eyes. I doubt she can lie if she looks into his eyes."

I frowned. "Cecilia, I'm trying to forget Ella. Besides…I found someone similar to Ella. Lady Lela of Bast is everything like Ella except for her fear of heights, causing her not to slide."

Christopher looked confused. "Slide?"

"Slide down banisters, like Ella and I once did," I responded.

"Oh," came Christopher's response. He looked thoughtful. "So Ella eloped, you say? But you're the prince, I highly doubt anyone would turn you down."

Cecilia nodded. "I tried telling him that but, of course being my thick-headed brother, he didn't listen. It's just 'Ella hates me,' or 'I lost my one true love' now. Come on, Char!" She said, shaking me a little. "Don't give up on Ella."

I looked at the floor. "But she doesn't think of me more than a mere acquaintance."

Cecilia rolled her eyes. "Right and I'm going to be the ruler of Kyrria," she said sarcastically.

I pointed out, "Well, if something ever happened to me…"

Cecilia rolled her eyes. "Char, be serious!"

Christopher nodded. I said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Back to the castle, which we seem to forgotten about." Already, I could feel the heartache and pain.

Cecilia understood immediately because she frowned but began to talk about the castle. "As I said before, let's keep it."

Christopher nodded. "I second the motion."

The both turned to me. "It's unanimous. We're keeping it!"

Cecilia grinned. "Good. Who wants to give it to Mr. Boring and Weird anyway?"

It would surprise people how much Cecilia did not act like a princess.

Christopher laughed. "I was thinking the same thing," he fell silent. "Cecilia? I am sorry I made such a big deal out of you riding a horse."

Cecilia smiled. "Apology accepted." She rose to her feet and Christopher and I stood as well. "Now, let's go home before we end up fighting about another matter."

We all laughed and walked out of the indoor garden. We reached the banister and Cecilia tossed Christopher and me a grin. "Want to slide?"

Christopher frowned. "I never really, err, done it before."

Cecilia responded, "It's easy. All you do it sit on the banister and then slide down. See, I will be the example." Then, with a quick grin and a wink, Cecilia slid down the banister, laughing all the way. When she hit the bottom, she yelled up the stairs, "Okay, your turn, Christopher!"

Christopher still looked nervous. I patted his shoulder. "I'll go before you." I then slid down. I reached the bottom and beckoned for Christopher to come.

Christopher looked at the banister and his eyes followed the rail all the way to the bottom and fixed his eyes on us. He shook his head. "Err…no thank you."

Cecilia looked impatient. "Come on, Christopher!" There was a mischievous glint in her eyes and I realized what was going to happen. "I thought you weren't a royal pampered boy anymore! Coward, you shouldn't be called a prince or even said to be related to us in anyway. Seriously, our family has no cowards in the blood line."

Christopher's eyes blazed. "I am not a coward or a royal pampered boy!"

Cecilia shrugged. "Prove it. You seem like one to me."

Christopher snapped, "Fine, I will!" With that said, he slid down the stair rail. When he reached the bottom, he gave Cecilia a triumphant look. "See? I'm not a coward or a pampered boy!"

Cecilia nodded approvingly. "Good. And if you haven't noticed, I tricked you." Right then, Cecilia and I began to laugh at a confused Christopher.

"What?" He asked, glancing between Cecilia and me, who began to laugh harder.

Cecilia took a breath and tried to calm herself. It took a few moments but she gained control of herself. "Well, I teased you and then…you wanted to be all brave and that and you slid down! So what did you think of it?"

Christopher looked at us. "I think…you know, that was…that…that ride…that slide, as you call it…it was…it was…it was one of the most fun thing I have ever done!" Christopher burst out. Cecilia and I blinked. Christopher continued, "I thought I would fall and break my neck! But it was fun!"

Cecilia frowned. "Um…okay…"

Christopher just grinned. "I never really do many things, always scared of what would happen. But maybe I should try and stop being a coward or a pampered boy…"

Cecilia held up her hands, blinking. "Okay, Christopher, get a hold of yourself! Wow, if I knew you would react like this, I would never have suggested you go on the stair rails!"

"Well, have you come to a decision, Your Majesties?" A voice said. We turned to see Lord William stare at us with his cold eyes.

I nodded and glanced at my sister and brother who nodded for me to speak. I suppressed a sigh. Why did I have to speak? "We have decided not to sell, sir."

Lord William's eyes narrowed slightly. "And may I inquire a reason, sire?"

Cecilia moved in front of me and said, staring right into his eyes, "Memories. Too many good times to just throw away. Because one day, we will come back and remember all the good times. But how can we if it does not own to us?"

Lord William turned his cold eyes onto Cecilia. "But I could allow you to 'revisit' the castle."

Cecilia frowned. "It would not be the same." She lifted her chin. "And we have made our decision. We are not selling. Or are you defying us?"

Lord William's eyes became colder, if possible. "Of course not, Your Highness. I would never do such a thing. Just wanted to let you see an alternative."

Cecilia gazed back at him even colder. "Well, you have showed us. Now, we wish to be left alone. And know this: we will never sell this castle. So do not try and buy it."

Lord William bowed, although it was stiff. "Yes, Your Highness."

Cecilia didn't bother with curtseying. "Just leave, please. We have things to attend to."

He left but gave one glare at Cecilia. Cecilia glared right back, her eyes cut and narrowed tightly, giving herself a mean appearance.

He left and Christopher turned to her, amazed. "Cecilia! A lady doesn't talk to someone like that!"

Cecilia shrugged. "He kept wanting to change our minds when we said no."

Christopher shook his head. "And that thing about defying us? Threatening?"

Cecilia laughed. "Well, it got him to leave."

I laughed. "Ah, sister, I fear for the person who must fight against you."

Cecilia's eyes twinkled. "Same here."

Christopher frowned. "So now what do we do? Don't we have other things to attend to, Cecilia?"

She laughed. We all looked slowly to the stair rails.

I grinned. "Again?"

Both of them grinned. "Of course!"

We both raced up the stairs, our feet thumping on the stairs. We laughed.

I slid down and then Cecilia and then Christopher. We all laughed happily and went for two more turns before leaving, all smiling.

Christopher was about to go in the carriage when Cecilia said, "Well, you go on in the carriage. I kept up my end of the deal and I'm going to ride a horse."

Christopher laughed. "I won't even begin to tell you how unladylike that is. It will be a waste of breath."

Cecilia grabbed a horse. The coachman looked confused. Then Christopher and I grabbed one too. There was only one left and the poor coachman looked so confused. I said, "Sir, here is 20 KJS. Please, take the carriage back to the castle and not a word of this to anyone."

The coachman, stunned by his good fortune, immediately took the money and rode off, rather slowly due to the lack of horses.

Cecilia grinned at me happily. She mounted the horse and Christopher and I followed. We began to gallop, Cecilia laughing.

"Let's race!" She cried and we quickly all agreed. "To that tree! On your mark…get set…go!"

We all began to gallop to the tree Cecilia had pointed out in the distance. I was in the lead and then Christopher was. Christopher and I were neck to neck. I briefly wondered where Cecilia was but then something flew past Christopher and me and reached the tree. Cecilia grinned at us. We could only stare. How did she beat us?

Cecilia bowed while on her horse. "And who says ladies cannot ride?" She asked.

Christopher muttered, "You can never believe it unless you see it with your own eyes."

Cecilia rode back to us happily and we then rode back together. We would sometimes laugh and joke.

Never before had we been able to get along. I was never so glad to have them as my brother and sister. Not only were they the best but they helped me forget my pain and Ella. And now…I knew what I was going to do. I was going to chose and bride and put Ella behind me.

Grinning, I followed my brother and sister as the sun began to fall slowly, starting to hide behind the mountains in the distance.
