Chapter Two : Happy Birthday Princess

Today marked the day of the Princess' 18th birthday. Her family was throwing a huge celebration for her in hopes she would find a prince to marry. Kali was sitting in her room dreading the night. The only thing she was looking forward to was hanging out with her friends. Kali never had her ideal birthday party. Kali vision of a birthday party was being with her friends and just having a great time, she never went anywhere without having someone watch her every move. Kali was curling her hair, if it would curl. Her hair never did anything she wanted it to do. She was startled when she heard a knock on her door. Her mother, Queen Shelby entered.

"Hello baby girl?"

"Hi, mom."

"What are you doing? Curling your hair?"

"Yea, if I can get it to."

"Well, hurry, there are people downstairs waiting."

"Yea, yea. Be there in a sec."

Her mother walked out and left Kali back to herself. Kali put down the curler and turned it off. She got up and ran to her closet and pulled out her big pink gown. She was having a hard time getting it on. She knew someone that could help. She grabbed her phone and texted her best friend Olivia. In what seemed like seconds Olivia ran up flights of stairs and into her room. Kali once again, startled, turned to see her friend standing there.

"Oh my god, how do you read your text and fly up here so fast? What are you a speed demon?"

"Shut up and let me see this thing."

Kali turned and let Olivia tie the back strings to hold up the dress. She finished that quite quickly too. She was like a pro at everything she did.

"Thanks." Kali turned towards her.

"You're welcome. Now let's go."

"I don't even wanna. Why don't me, you and your sister bounce?"

"Well, I know of a few places we could go tonight?"

"I am down. Just let them introduce me and then switch into another outfit."

"Gotta tell our moms though or everyone will be looking for us. I'm talking helicopters."

"Yea I know. At least I'm 18 now and I can tell everyone to shove it."

"Let's get this show on the road then."

"Alright brother."

Kali and Olivia approached the door and headed down to the ballroom. Once they entered and stood at the top of the stair case, the castle guard announced Kali. Olivia stood off to the side so Kali could enter with grace.

"Introducing the Princess Kali!"

Kali walked down the stairs, holding her dress up and Olivia followed. Kali stood at the bottom of the stairs and bowed. Kali's mother, father and stepmother walked towards her.

"Kali would you like to dance with any of the princes here?" Her stepmother, Heidi asked.

"No."

The crowd gasped.

"Not even one?" Shelby asked.

"No, not really."

"You sure?" Kali's father, Robert asked.

Kali looked around at everyone and then smiled.

"Nope, I'm good."

"Well, alright." Robert said.

Kali walked towards Olivia and Alexis smiling.

"Can we peace out now?"

Alexis and Olivia looked around and then shook their heads.

"Yup."

The three princesses walked to both their mothers.

"So mom, this is cool thing that you guys did for me but I don't really want to be here."

"Oh my god, Kali seriously? Do you know how much money we all spent on this for you?"

"Please, you have plenty of money to spend. That's the only reason why anyone showed up. Their all sucking up so they can have a piece of it."

"If you guys are going anywhere then have your cell phones on you at all times and do it quickly and quietly." Queen Amanda, Alexis and Olivia's mom said.

"Alright mom." Alexis said.

The three princesses walked to the secret passage behind the stair case that led to a hallway, one floor lower than Kali's tower. Once they opened the door, they quickly fled through it. They ran up the stairs and into the hall way and then up another flight of stairs to Kali's room. They all took their dresses off and into jeans and t-shirts and they each grabbed a hoodie.

"It's convenient that we have our dressers here." Alexis said.

"Very." Olivia agreed.

"Let's get the hell out of here."

The girls went to the balcony and Kali tied a rope to the top and they all climbed and the hoped in Alexis' car.

"Ciggy time!" Olivia said.

"Yes!" Kali grabbed one for them both. Alexis looked at them.

"You guys are joslyns."

"Fuck you." Olivia said.

They sped off out of the long driveway.
