THE ULTRA PRINCESS
CHAPTER 1
"Dad did I played the piano well ?" I had asked my Dad that faithful afternoon before he was taken away by the pangs of Death.
My name is Beatrice but my friends call me Bet or Betty while my Dad always call me one funny name 'Ultra Princess'. I had always pestered him that he should tell me the reason why he chose to call me that name but he refused with a promise to tell me someday. And that faithful afternoon after playing the piano, I asked him the question I asked earlier but he only said"Ultra Princess, you played the piano very well, and I also have something very important to tell you".
"What is that Dad" I asked him, "you are a princess,this world we are in is not ours" He replied."What do you mean that this place is not our world" I queried,"okay listen, you have to be strong and brave because I am not your real Father, I was your Father's most trusted soldier..."
My Dad could not finish his word because he was shot from the back and immediately we are surrounded by Men - in - Black.
He quickly handover a locket to me and a flute, he told me to wave the flute and that was I all. Everywhere started to rumble in my eyes and I could not see things clearly "you will know who you really are, make sure you are safe".I wanted to nod but I saw it faintly that his head was chopped off.
Strange isn't it ? I also think so because I have never in my life believe in magic or anything beyond natural but here I am. I found myself in a strange country but this place isn't a country,it's a world because it's like I was thrown back into the past,when there is no car,no phone,no electricity,no ICT gadget, nothing! Their only means of transportation is horse and carriage. The world that martial arts and magic reigned supreme! That was a bombshell for me because how can I, the daughter of the Chief Minister in Ireland, the one who lives in wealth and luxury of the modern world be found in this kind of a God damn country like this.
Anyway that is a minor issue I need to find my way, I noticed that my dress as changed into that of the f**king people living here. I wandered around the place like someone who is lost and I'm indeed lost. I walked through the market and the neighborhood, I was tired and hungry, I summoned the courage and ask one old man the name of this place and he replied"Omegan". Can you see that, I have never heard of such crazy dumb name before Omegan, where the hell is wrong with the people here ? And what the h*ck should I do with this Stupid Omegan of a country.
I sat in one corner of the market and start to wail, what I'm I even doing here, my Dad is dead, I am away from home, everyone here looks crazy to me. I was still in the midst of my tears when an arrow hit the joist of the stall I was sitting. Within the twinkle of an eye the same Men In Black who killed my father appeared and start killing everyone at the market because they retreated. I quickly find my way out of the market.
I ran as fast as my legs could carry my nibble feet. They chased me out of the market and I ran into the mountains and I stood there because the mountain has reached a steepy end they moved closer to me and I was so frightened that i did not know I I had moved very close to the steepy end and I slipped, I fell from the top of the mountain into the river at the mouth of the mountain. I was transported to another village but the water did not deposit me and nobody sighted me so it carried me to the coast of an unknown island.
I woke up only to find myself in a cottage with 5 people staring at me. I tried to get up but I could not and they noticed I am scared of them,one of them a lady who I later knew as Kate helped me up, and I asked her "where I'm I ?" " You are in Butterfly Island Princess" she replied and I was very shocked because how did she know of my identity and who are they." How did you know me" I asked her out of surprise, "Princess we are the special guard of your father the king who has assigned us to protect you with our life" she replied but I wasn't satisfied and I asked again" you haven't answer my question please", " We recognised you through the your locket" Frank one of them replied.
