Katherine was outside in the garden writing in her diary. Suddenly a swish sound came from the bushes. Katherine turned around quickly and went back to what she was doing. She heard an even louder noise she turned and found someone with a knife about to stab her. She screamed and ran as fast as she could. The person got her and covered her mouth. She kicked the knife out ofthe hand and went running.

The person caught up with herit pushed her down to the ground. Mia had just came in the garden wondering where that noise was coming from. It let go and went running leaving her there. "Hello?" Mia said looking around, "is anyone here?"

Katherine went rushing to her Mom crying. "Sweetie what's wrong?" Katherine sobbed on her shoulder. Mia took her in the palace. Just then James appeared and asked, "Is everything alright?" They went upstairs, "I'm not sure."

Jen was on the computer searching something

Amelia Thermopolis

She hit the search button.

Amelia Thermopolis a normal teenager at 14 that resently discovered she was the princess of-

"Hey Jen what you doing?" Her dad interupted. She closed the window on the computer quickly,"Nothing just homework."

"Well I hope that's what your doing." He laughed. "How was Rebecca?"

"She was...nice."

"Good." he said. He put his hand on her forehead.

"Hun, your freezing, have you been outside?"

"No." She lied.

"Hmm the air conditioning must be on."

He went out of the room. "AND WHO MESSED UP MY BED?"

"Hey Marry!" Jen tried to be a little nice. "Move out of my way fur-eek!"

"That's the girl who punched Marry. Don't get too close to her." One girl whispered to her friend.

"Poor girl had to get Daddy to save her from posibble suspention." One of the girls behind Marry said.

"Go back to where you came from and leave us all alone." Another said.

Jen just kept on walking, "Hey I see you met Marry." A girl walking beside her said. "Yea. She's great." She said joking. "So what's your name?" She asked. "I'm Jennifer. But just call me Jen."

"You?" She asked. "I'm Brenda." Was it possible for her to make a friend? Nah. "Well I gotta go. See ya!" Jen waved behind her.

"Hey Katherine!" One of Katherine's friends called out, "My father is throwing a ball he said he'd like to invite your parents." She got two invitations out of her bag. "Oh just one."

Idiotic girl wasn't really her friend she barely even knows about Katherine, "Why? Wouldn't your Father like to come?" You see how clueless she is? "Oh, I don't have a Father." She looked at her in bit of shock. "Good heavens you don't have a father? You don't even know about your own father?"

"No." She said with a sad tone. You have to admit it is ridiculous. I mean there are a lot of kids who don't have a father living with thembut at least knows about their father. She didn't even know her father. No she hadn't even seen a picture of him.

She walked out of school. She saw a little girl with her Father playing outside in the park. She kept on starring until a tear went down her cheek. She walked away. She felt so horrible inside it was undiscribable.

Back to what she was doing. She wanted to find a picture of her

Amelia Thermopolis

(NO PICTURE FOUND)

She became so interested in this woman she wanted to find out more. And acording to Marry's Mom to ask...Dad.

Dinner was quiet. Jen thought that this was the right time, "Dad," Michael looked up from his plate, "Yes?" Jen had to ask she just had too. She had to know if Lana was wrong.

"Can I ask you a question?"

"Sure Anything."

"Well could you tell me about Mom?"

Just then Michael chocked on his rice. Jen quickly got a glass of water. He took 2 or three gulps of it, "Anything but that." He said. He was still in shock. "I th-think you should go to your room now."

"Sorry Dad I-"

"Just go." He interupted.

She went upstairs. Michael just sat there in silence, thinking.

James was starring at Mia. Mia smiled, "What?" She noticed he was starring.

He laughed, "Nothing. Your just so amazing."

She took a sip of her wine, "No not really."

They were on a date. "You are." Mia started blushing. "Thanks!" She was so in love now.

"Sweetie aren't you going to bed now?" Mia asked coming in Katherine's room. "Yea."

"What's wrong you look down."

"I was just wondering..."

"Yes?"

"If I could know about my Father?"

There was a long pause until Mia said, "He was..."Mia didn't know what to say, "I-I got to go to...bed." Mia turned off the lights. "Good Night."

Nightmares were bothering Mia and Michael during the night. It seemed like their past was returning as we speak. She kept having flashbacks and sweating she woke up breathing heavily. She went to the kitchen for a glass of water.

Michael on the other hand wasn't sleeping. This went on the whole night. During the years they thought their daughters would never ask that question. It now came out from their mouths. What are they to say? It's a complicated story and they'll hate them forever for not telling them. I ask how can someone explain that they HAVE a mother on the other side of the globe and a twin sister. See what I mean?

Anyways the next morning, Jen walked in the kitchen. All quiet she just making herself some cereal. She sat down on the counter pouring the milk and keeping an eye on her Dad talking on the phone. She finished talking and hung up. Michael sat across from her. Jen just couldn't help herself.

"Dad I'm sorry."

He was silent, "I just wanted to know what was she like?" she really meant that. It took just a few seconds until her went.

"Well...she's...like you."

"Really?" She said not believing that.

"Yea, and each time I look at you...you remind me of her." Jen couldn't help but smile.

"Dad maybe I should tell you why I'm asking this. You see it's Mary's Mom she said something about a Amelia Thermopolis and her being my Mother. I don't think so right? Is that true is she my mother?"

Michael widen his eyes, "Jen I'm in a hurry I have to rush to work right now." He got up put his coat on and opened the door. "Do you want a ride or will you take the bus?"

"I'll just take the bus. Bye Dad!" He waved and left. She wanted tto know more about her mother she just did. You know somewhere in that girl she has hope that somewhere in this world she can find her. She just ate her cereal and said to herself, "Is she?"

Well as the months passed summer came by. And as the months passed the girls became more interested in their parents. More and more. They wondered why their parent never spoke about this.

Finally it was summer. And Jen was writing in her diary, she was on a ship now. I'm sure your wondering. Well it started yesterday.

It was summer. Her friend Brenda invited her to go on a cruise with her and her parents. She asked her Dad and he said yes. So that was how she got in the gorgeous St. Nathilia cruise ship.

And to the other story with Katherine. Mia sent Katherine (and her bodygaurd) to a cruise. She desided she had enough busy things to do and take a break. She needed a break...really. And meet a royal family there too but mostly break. What's that you say? they're in the same cruise? Why correct!

But on seperate places.

"Hey Jen I heard there's a royal in here!"

"Yea right!" She said not caring.

"Oh ok then you won't believe then."

"What makes you think theres some stuck up royal here?"

"Want to bet?"

"Deal! 5 bucks ok?"

"Fine. Go then. Oh and you have to throw the person in the water."

She gulped. And went walking.
