Chapter 1

Odd how life is. One minute, I'm the Royal Princess of Bimaria. And now I'm captive to one of the world's greatest warriors. I admit maybe it's my fault that I'm in this predicament. But how was I supposed to know that we would be ambushed and captured? And how was I supposed to know that the Grecians would bring their mightiest warrior? Ok, so I did know that we would be attacked. But everyone should have known that. Well, see we like have one of the most wealthiest and beautiful lands. But everyone wanted our land, and everyone had failed trying to take our land. Not my fault that my father over estimated our enemy. Well, I guess for you to understand what I'm talking about, I guess I'll have to give you the whole story.

My name is Thalia of Bimaria, daughter of King Aegicoros and Queen Aegina of Bimaria. That is how I am princess, and I have no other siblings. I guess that's why father is so worried. Normally, sons take the throne the not the daughters. And it seems that father does not think I am capable to take care of the Bimaria Empire.

"You're only a woman, only 21 summers old. It would be impossible to run the Empire by yourself," Father told me.

I should have known then what Father's intentions were. Marriage. I refused the first time he mentioned. I wasn't ready was my excuse. And I didn't need a man to run the empire.

"Nonsense," he said.

"There are many suitors, all who have their own experience in running empires. It would be wise to at least consider them. If you do not, I will Thalia."

That had meant the discussion was over. I ran out to the Royal Gardens, and took my frustration out by practicing my archery. Taking a bow, I aimed at the marker.

I was ready to pull back the arrow when a voice behind me said, "Your aim is a little off."

Lowering my bow, I turned with a smile to my best friend Alympia.

"Really? Because as I recall, that is exactly how you told me to hold it," I replied grinning.

She rolled her eyes.

"Maybe I did, but Amazons fight with swords not arrows," she said sternly gazing at me with a bit mock anger.

Rolling my eyes, I said, "And Amazons used their strength not swords. I've heard you say it before. Well you're an Amazon, not me. And I have to use arrows, because that's the closest I'll ever get in a battle."

I sat down in a huff, angry with all of today's events.

Alympia settled beside me and said "I have heard that your father has found a suitable husband for you."

My gaze turned to her, and I snapped angrily "No husband will be suitable for me. I don't need a man to take care of me."

Alympia who was much older than me smiled and said, " I believed that once too."

We both went into a comfortable silence.

Suddenly a servant came running. " My Lady, the King wishes to see you," she said in a huff

. I waved her away.

"I'll talk to my father later," I said dismissively.

"But My Lady," she protested, " it is urgent.

We are under attack."

Both Alympia and I stood up at this news, and followed the servant back to my father. When we found him, he was pacing in the throne room, while my mother sat on the throne beside my father's with a calm expression. I knew better though. She sat stiffly, watching my father's pacing with a hint of annoyance.

" Would you please stop pacing, My King? It bothers me greatly," she remarked in a slightly annoyed voice.

He did so, but only because he turned his attention towards us.

" Everyone, leave us!" he barked angrily.

I bowed my head apologetically, while everyone else bowed and left.

"Father, I heard that we are under attack. Is this true?" I said now settling beside my mother own my own seat

. He nodded his head in confirmation to my question. He began to pace once more.

"Then why did you not send our warriors to meet the enemy?" I asked watching with my own annoyance as my father paced.

"I did Thalia, but they were defeated. It seems that the warriors brought more than we estimated," my father replied as he stopped his pacing to turn to us.

It was the look on his face that startled me. It was one of sadness. I turned to look at my mother questioningly. She seemed confused herself.

"Aegicoros? We only lost one battle so do not fret so. We shall simply rally more of our troops, and meet the enemy once more," she said, and I felt a tingle of pride from the decisive and firm way my mother spoke.

Father sighed heavily, and once more I felt a small sense of dread and worry.

"Aegina, Thalia, I believe our situation is more worse than we feared."

Those words were the beginning of the many challenges I would face.

What do you think? Yeah I know corny ending, but I could think of anything else. Chapter 2 and 3 will be up soon.
