Chapter 1
:Flashback::
I can't breathe,I thought to myself. I'm going to die here. I just know it. I might as well just kill myself right now. No one cares about me.
The sun was hot that day. The land was dry and there wasn't any water. All forms of life seemed to be disappearing around me. Was this the reason I had left home? So I could die here? No. There had to be another reason. I need a sign or something. Doesn't anyone care about me?
"Mother come quick!"yelled a voice in the distance. "I think he's going to die."
You silly person,I thought. I'm a girl...
"Hold on Paris. I'm coming,"said another voice in the distance. "Paris...this isn't a boy..it's a girl."
"Are you sure?"
"She was to be...."I whispered. The boy named Paris jumped back in surprise.
"I thought she was dead!"
"Apparently she's not,"laughed his mother. His mother then picked me up and took me somewhere in the city of Troy.

That night I found myself in some bed the palace of Troy.
"Where...where am I?"I asked as I started to regain consciousness.
"You're in the palace of Troy." It was that boy again...Paris... "You should be grateful that I saw you out there. Where are you from."
Was I supposed to say something?
"Well...?"
"I'm...."I hesitated a bit. "I'm from parts of the east."
"There. That wasn't so hard now was it?"
"Why did you bring me here?"
"Did you think I'd let you die out there? No. I couldn't possibly do that. I'm too much of a caring person. You're welcome here."
"Thank you Prince of Troy."
"Please. Call me Paris. And you're welcome." He kissed my hand. "You must join me for dinner tonight."
I smiled. "Yes sir."
"I'll be expecting you,"and he left the room.
