(AN: Hello everyone! Some of you may remember this story as The Runway well I took it down and revised it corrected grammer, spelling and changed a few things around. I hope you all like this! Also I use to be know is Mia Hindo for refrence.)

Me, boarding school … she is crazy! She must be. No, she has to be.

"You have gone mad!" I yelled at my step-mother. "I can't go to boarding school. Dad would not have agreed to this!"

"Your father thought it would be a good experience for you. You can go see another country and learn their ways."

'In other words: she is trying to get me out of their life, so they don't have to worry about me messing up her plans.

I'll be tucked away at boarding school only coming home a few times a year. So she and her children can take over my house. I won't stand for this, I won't! I am a princess I will not stand for this!' I thought to myself

"Don't worry! It will be good for you." Her daughter, who was my age said.

"Well then, Beth, if you think so why don't you go? Hmmm?" I said looking at her in disgust. She just wanted my room. Well, who wouldn't? It has a balcony with a beautiful view of the mountains and the river that runs though them.

"I don't want to." She said stepping in front of me. I wanted to punch her, which I did. Right in the jaw, it felt wonderful for me. I had been waiting to do that for along time.

"ANNA!" My step-mother screamed racing over to her daughter, "Don't worry she is going to. She is going to make sure you won't embarrass your Father's country."

I glared at her and yelled, "Don't you ever call this his country! This was my mother's country before it became his! And I will get it back for my mother and my people's sake!" And with that I grabbed my key and ran.

My key turned in to a wand. "Fly!" I yelled running down the stairs. Wings came out of the sides of the key and I sat on it and dashed down the stairs.

"Anna!" Someone yelled behind me. My real name was Aubrianna; Anna had been my nick name since as far back as I could remember. I turned my head it was Breena my maid "What is going on? Why have I been ordered to pack your things!"

"I'll tell you later!" She stopped running and I turned back around.

I stopped when I got in front of the oak door that leads to the thrown room.

My wand shrunk back to key size, and I began to straighten my circlet and my dress. Pushing the doors open and walking through, I saw my father at the end talking to his advisers.

I hated my father, he ruined my mother's country. He used half the royal treasury on wars and new palaces.

I bowed three times like I was suppose to and said as kindly as I could to the man that was supposed to be my father, "Father, it has come to my attention that you and the Queen are sending me to boarding school."

"Yes, that is true." I looked at my mother's family from my grand-father to my cousins

They had almost no power, now that he was king. "You will go and there and you will behave. You will not say anything wrong to offended anyone." He said so loud, so rudely, I almost cried.

"Yes, father." I said bowing three times and walking out of the room tears flowing down my cheeks.

I got to my room and Breena said "What in bloody hell is going on? I have been order to pack all of our stuff!"

"I'm being shipped off to a boarding school." I said sat down on my bed. "You most likely are coming to make sure I don't mess things up." I sighed.

"Oh." She replied softly

Breena was about 40 years old and had been taking care me since I was born. She started to pack everything. "Anna don't worry everything will be fine. Remember what your name means Noble and Strong One. Your mother gave you that name for a reason, so don't worry."

Every time something happens, I was always reminded what my name meant for some odd reason.

The next day I held my head high as I mounted my horse on that snowy morning. My father walked over to me.

"Aubrianna, you better behave or you will be exiled from the country till I can forgive your," he paused for a moment, as if to search for the right word, "disobedience." I nodded. "Good"

We rode off a few minutes later. As we rode by people threw roses and lillies at me. They were my supporters, and they knew I had a plan. And I hoped that somehow I wouldn't let their hopes down.

That night we stopped at an Inn for the night. I had my own room which I shared with Breena. I sat down in the chair by the window and said quietly, as if to myself, "It took me all day but I have a plan but I have to leave tonight."

"But it's snowing."

"I have no choice I have to go. My friend Sakura said she would be in the Hiiragizawa Kingdom. It's only about a one nights ride to the gates.

"She promised me after I helped her that she would help me out of any jam. Well it looks like I'm in one right now. Hopefully she still will. I need her help and more to regain my kingdom."

"Anna, you are as brave as your mother was. I will stall them, and say your sleeping, if they ask. I can only promise about 10 minutes."

I smiled "I'll be far enough away, they will, hopefully, think I went the other way."

"Ok." She said handing me a saddle bag.

I put my cards and some food in it, and changed in to more comfortable clothing. It was my winter ridding outfit.

I put my gown neatly in the other ridding pouch. I put my mother's necklace that had her family crest on it around my neck. Grabbing my navy blue cloak, I pulled up my hair in a half ponytail.

"Here." Breena said handing me a wrapped package. "Your mother told me to give it to you when I thought you where ready.

I opened it. It was a bow and arrow set and a new Moon Card. It had a kind of scroll looking thing on it which read "When you have nothing at all you have nothing to worry about." It was titled "The Remember" ((AN: Hey I know that the line is from a Sailor Moon song. My sister Lizzie was listening to it while I was thinking and I got a brain blast. Maybe I am crazy.))

"Thank you." I put the bow and arrow's on my back and put that one on the top of all of my cards.

She gave me a hug and said "Hurry up, before I change my mind."

I smiled at her and said "I will do this. I will win." I put on my cloak and went out the backdoor. I was now in more danger 'I have ten minutes' I thought. 'Horse stables... horse stables...' I thought looking around. 'Ahhhh, there it is.' I walked quietly in to the stables.

My horses Starblast and Blaze where there. Starblast was a white horse and Blaze was black. 'Star is slower the Blaze so I must take Blaze.' I thought. I lead Blaze out and Star stared to whinny. "Shhhh." I whispered.

"Star, I know you want to go but you are slower then Blaze. So stay." I put the saddle and bridle on Blaze and lead him out. I mounted him and rode off.

"Blaze we are getting out of here. People are going to come after us, so go fast." I said to him. I pulled by cloak closer and pushed him in to a gallop and we where off.

A few minutes later, I heard faint voices, "Faster. We have to make it to the outskirts by sunrise!" It seemed to get colder the closer we got.

At about 5 a.m I felt weak now; I had gotten to the outskirts of the kingdom.

"Slow down Blaze." For some reason, I now felt weak...Stay awake, stay awake!" I repeated these words over and over to myself.

I dismounted and stumbled. Blaze nudged his face next to my neck. "Don't worry, boy, I'll be able stay awake." I said faintly.

I took a step and stumbled to the ground and could not get up. Blaze moved and lied down next to me and I laid my head on his neck.

I pulled my cloak around my body and told myself to stay awake, but I felt sleep was coming. And, without warning, sleep claimed me.

I hope everyone will enjoy the revised version I am putting out!
