The Princess & The Ape

Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, lived king Hercule and his beautiful daughter, Princess Videl. They lived in a small kingdom surrounded by lush forests.

The forests were vast and teemed with beautiful flowers. Videl would often visit the forest whenever she was bored and spend hours wandering through them admiring natures beauty but never straying to far from the castle grounds.

One day, while wandering the forests, Princess Videl accidentally tripped over a low tree root. She wasn't hurt, but unfortunately as she fell her dragonball fell out her pocket and started to roll away deeper into the woods the dragonball was her most prized possession which she kept with her at all times, she couldn't bear to loose it. And so she immediately chased after it. The ball kept rolling deeper and deeper into the forest but Videl did not give up the chase she kept on pursuing until she finally caught up with the ball. Relived she quickly re-pocketed the ball and decided to head home. She looked around for the forest edge that would lead her back home, but she couldn't see it. She was in a part of the forest she had never been before all the trees were dauntingly similar to each other, she had no way of knowing which way she had come from, she had no way of knowing which way was out. She was lost.

The reality of being stuck in the forest and never being able to find a way home or see her father again, caused the princess to breakdown and cry. She wept up against a tree for what seemed like hours until…

"Why are you crying, princess?" The princess looked up to where she just heard the voice and to her surprise, saw a hairy brown monkey hanging from a nearby tree, curiously looking at her.

"Wh-what?" she stammered, in confusion.

"I said why are you crying?" the monkey repeated.

"I-I'm crying because i'm lost in this forest and I can't find my way back home to the castle!" the princess replied, trying to hold back her tears.

"I can help you find your way back." The monkey offered.

"You can?" the princess asked, almost not believing it

"Yes, I can" the monkey confirmed. "But in return, you must promise to let me eat at your table, sleep in your bed and receive from you, a goodnights kiss, agreed?"

"Yes yes, I promise!" the princess instantly agreed, without taking the terms of the offer much consideration. The monkey nodded

"Okay then, follow me." And the monkey guided the princess through the dense forest. Not long passed, and the trees were getting lighter and lighter, until the princess could finally see the forest edge and the castle in the distance. She was so excited, she immediately ran straight towards the castle, leaving the monkey far behind.

The princess safely made it back to the castle and to her father, who had been worried sick but overjoyed to have her home safely.

They were enjoying their dinner, when a voice was heard echoing in the castle.

"Princess, let me in, I have not forgotten your promise!" the princess paled, remembering the promise.

"Daughter, who is that at the door?" the king asked looking inquisitively at her. Seeing it pointless to try and lie to her father, the princess explained everything that had happened in the forest and how the monkey had led her home.

After hearing his daughter's explanation, the king was a bit surprised, but seemed to understand the situation completely.

"I see…" he nodded. "…Well then you had best go let him in then, shouldn't you?"

"What?" The princess had not expected her father to take the monkeys side, she had hoped he would have called a servant to shoo the monkey away. But that did not seem to be the case.

"You made a promise to him, Videl." He explained. "As bizarre as it may be, he still helped you out of the forest, and showed you the way home, keeping his end of the bargain. It is only proper, that you fulfill yours. The Satans do not go back on their word, no matter what. Do you understand?"

"Yes father." She nodded.

With a heavy heart, she headed towards the main doors to let the monkey in. Opening the doors, the monkey smiled and let himself in, and followed Videl back to the dining room, making no comment of complaint to the princess leaving him behind earlier.

At the dinner table the monkey shared his meal with the princess, shoveling as much food as he could into his small mouth but while still leaving an equal portion for the princess, although she seemed to had lost her appetite. The king, on the other end of the table calmly ate his meal, saying nothing.

Late after dinner, the princess reluctantly carried the monkey up to her bedroom to sleep on her bed. She had hoped the king would agree to simply let him sleep in a guest room, but he firmly, again reminded her of her promise, and to keep to it, no matter what.

In her room she put the monkey down on her queen sized bed. The monkey instantly made himself comfortable, folding his arms out behind his hairy head and his tail hanging loosely over the bedside. Without uttering a word of complaint, the princess retreated to her on suite bathroom to change into her nightgown, secretly hoping that the monkey would have fallen asleep and forgotten about her third promise before her return.

Finally changed, the princess returned to her room. She saw the monkey still in her bed, with its eyes closed, seemingly asleep. As quietly as she could, she crept towards the bed, not wanting him to wake up and remember the last promise. Just as she was climbing into the bed…

"Princess, I have not forgotten your third promise." The monkey calmly said. The princess paled. "I would like a goodnight kiss, please." The monkey calmly stated, awake with its eyes on her.

The princess swallowed hard, inwardly cursing herself for making such a stupid agreement. Seeing no way out of it, she reluctantly bent over the monkey, and planted a quick kiss on the monkey's puckered lips.

"Thank you princess." The monkey gratefully smiled, "Goodnight." And with that the monkey turned over in the bed and fell asleep. The princess meekly climbed into her side of the bed, hoping to try and get to sleep, hoping that the monkey had just been a bad dream.

The princess awoke the next day, feeling slightly dizzy. She then remembered the monkey lying in her bed; she reluctantly turned round to his side of the bed, expecting to see its smug sleeping form, lying there.

But instead of coming face to face with a hairy ape, she instead came face to face with a torso. Looking up, she saw the torso belonged to a man, the most handsome man she had ever seen, sitting in the area of the bed where the monkey had been sitting, smiling warmly at her. The man had black spiky hair with deep onyx eyes.

The princess was pretty surprised to say the least.

"Who are you?" the princess asked warily. The man smiled.

"Princess." He said, his voice sounding exactly like the monkeys. "Its me. The monkey."

"The monkey?"

"Yes, I am prince Gohan, I was the monkey. But now, thanks to you, I am free."

I did?" questioned the princess, almost not believing it. "But… how?"

"A long time ago…" explained the prince, " the wicked witch Frieza, put a curse on me, turning me into a monkey. The only way for the curse to be broken was for a beautiful princess to willingly let me eat with them, sleep in their bed and then kiss me goodnight. Ugly as I was, you still fulfilled your promise to me, so thanks to you I'm human again" the prince smiled warmly at her. "So thank you."

The princess smiled back at him, feeling happy to have helped the prince. When the king heard of this he too felt happy for the prince and offered him a place to stay in the castle.

Over the time that followed the prince and princess became good friends, and it wasn't much longer until the two were happily married to one another

And so they both lived happily ever after.

THE END
