Chapter 1

A New Day, A New Discovery

"Avi get up this instance, this is urgent!" bellowed the handmaiden Aira as she skidded to a stop at the edge of her mistress and best friend Avi's bed. She shook Avi violently. "Get up right now you lazy girl, someone very special is here to see you!"

Avi swatted Aira away, and continued to lay still "Tell them to go away Aira, I'm sleeping right now,"

Knowing Avi was never a morning person, Aira looked around the room to see what she could use to wake up her best friend. The room was neat and tidy, nothing out of place. Aira's green eyes skimmed across the washbasin, and she smiled micheviously while rubbing her hands together. Slowly she krept over to the basin and picked up the ancient wooden bucket used to fill it up. Aira dipped the bucket into the bath water that was awaiting Avi if she were to awake, the steam felt good on Aira's cheeks. I'm sorry I have to do this to you my friend, she spoke to Avi in her head, but you brought it upon yourself

"AVI WAKE UP!" Aira cried one last time as she slung the buckets contents on her friends sleeping form. She smiled with satisfactory as she heard Avi give a shriek

"OH MY GOODNESS AIRA, YOU ARE GOING TO GET IT!" Avi growled, hopping out of bed at lightening speed. Her blue green eyes danced with fire, as she began to chase Aira around the room. Avi's normally brown slightly wavey lock were damp and sticking out in every direction from sleep, but she could care less. They both gave loud laughs as Aira grabbed a pillow and started hitting Avi with it repeatebly. Avi in defense grabbed another pillow, and swung at Aira, missing completely.

"You were always horrible at hitting a target," Aira giggled putting her pillow down in truimph "so put the pillow down we must get you ready for your guest"

Avi gave her a puzzeled look "Who is this special guest Aira, tell me right now?" She put her pillow down and followed Aira across the room to the wash basin

"I will tell you miss, only after you have washed up and dressed," Aira whispered

It took a long while, but finally Avi was ready. She had put on a wine red dress, with a lovely matching ruby pendant shaped like a rose resting in her brown locks. Her lips stood out, with a vibrant pinkish red color. Avi glanced at herself in the mirror, nodded and turned her attention to Aira once again "So tell me now who is here to see me, and why exactly this early in the morning?" It is probably just some relative that has come to visit mother, and only wishes to see me out of politeness, Avi thought sarcastically. There was completer utter silence as she waited for Aira to answer her question.

Aira spoke, and Avi had to strain to hear her "My lady, someone is here to seek your hand in marriage, I am unsure of to whom it is" Aira's looked down at the wooden floor knowing that Avi would be angry with her for not telling her sooner.

Avi's eyes grew wide as saucers, and her mouth hung open most unlady like. "Why didn't you tell me sooner!" she shouted. She had no idea how she was going to get out of this one, she had no wish to be wed. Knowing her mother it was probably an old man who was rich.

"I knew you wouldn't get ready if I told you beforehand, please forgive me Avi" Aira said, making her short blonde locks cover her burning cheeks. She hated when Avi was angry with her, and avoided it as often as possible.

"Well then, I better get down there so I don't keep him waiting," Avi sighed, hesitating slightly " sorry about not getting up sooner Aira" Tilting her head up regally, Avi strolled out the open door. The hall was empty to Avi's releif, she did not feel like talking to any of the servants at the moment. What am I going to do, I can't marry someone I probably don't even know, she thought, coming closer to the end of the hallway. There, she knew her mother would be waiting impatiently fo her, wondering what had taken her so long. Avi took one last deep breathe, and stepped out into the light of the open room.

"Oh there you are honey!" said Avi's mother, her brown eyes flashing a sign of relief "I've been waiting for you for a very long while now,so has the man calling upon you!" Avi bit her lip. This is it, she thought ,lets just get this over with. As her mother opened the doors to the waiting room Avi closed her eyes tightly and slowly stepped forward. It seemed like an eternity passed and still she did not open her eyes, thinking that if she could not see him he wasn't really there. When she thought she was close to the middle of the room she opened her eyes.. to find exactly what she thought she would. On the green velvet coach sat an VERY old man. His eyebrows were so thick that you could barely see his eyes, that seemed to be the only hair he had left on his face and head though. Ever single wrinkle on his face had either a brown mole or two more wrinkles to go with it. He gave Avi a smile, showing of an empty mouth. Avi blinked a few times, and before she could stop herself opened her mouth.

"Im marrying him!" Avi growled, pointing a finger at the man as if he were just an animal to gawk at. How could they do this to me, she cursed to herself, why would mother set me up to someone like THIS when she knew I would object?

The man looked offended for a moment, but then quickly smiled kindly showing Avi once again his empty mouth. "My dear child, I am not the one who has come to ask your hand," he croaked "I am but a messenger of The Prince Mick of Frell."

Avi blinked uncertainly, taking a small step back "Why would the Prince of Frell... why would he send a messenger to see ME?"

His smile grew larger, greatly amused at Avi's surprise " My dear, did not anyone tell you that the prince has asked for your hand in marriage?"

"He... HE... WHAT!" Avi shreiked, her mouth open wide "why would the Prince ask for my... my hand in marriage?"

"It is not my business to meddle in the affairs of the royal family, I do not know why the Prince has asked for your hand" he chuckled

I'm going to marry the prince, the PRINCE, were Avi's last thought as she passed out on the hard marble floor.

A/N Hey hoped you like it i am just gettin warmed up rest assured. Something interesting happens in the next chappie. Just for fun some of the names i picked have special meanings, Avi means of the heavens from the sky and Aira means of the wind. Some names in later chapters will have special meanings also so look at the authors note and i will tell you what there meaning is. These names meanings are not that important however I just liked what Avi and Aira meant hehehehe but some of the names meanings give a big hint to who the people are or what they are like, but not all of them. So I posted another chapter what do you think you should do next?REVIEW OF COURSE. Thanks Again
