Today I turn fifteen on Valentine's Day, even though no one celebrates with me on this special day. Everyone in the Ice Kingdom sees me as a burden. Thinking how can I run a large kingdom all by myself. No one befriends me and I have no family who helps me with this problem of being under pressure. I'm the only person in the Bell bloodline that is left since my parents were killed when I was five years old.
I may be the only heir around but that doesn't mean people should look down on me. Royalty is something I'm born with as Princess Caitlyn Bell its so exhausting everyday dealing with all the piles of crap.
And I really mean it.
Now that I'm at an important age, I want to be one of those girls who get the happy ending with a prefect boyfriend beside them. My dream is to be one of those girls to make that dream a reality. Another thing I dream of is what happend to my parents.
I don't know if these dreams will come true.
I want to know.
And I want to fall in love with a fairy tale ending of my own.
As I was strolling down the street to celebrate at my favorite resturant I arrived at my favorite seating exclusive to me. Usually I always cook my own food for each time of the day, but today was special. I always order salad with ranch dressing, bread sticks with a nice warm soup.
The waiter walks away as I mutter to myself. "This is the worst birthday of my life."
My dinner was simply divine with the outstanding tastes in my mouth, prefect timimg and well-prepared. My walk from the resturant to Crystal Castle was very pleasant. Cute guys were staring at me, but I ignored them. Thing is I hate arranged marriages were I don't even meet the guy in person (its so damn stupid on how the world is running right mow) now that's dumb for an arranged marriage.
Finally I made it to the castle before dusk came, drawing my day to its end
"Good evening, Princess Caitlyn. How was dinner?" One of the maids talked to me as if I'm the leader. Oh wait, I am the leader. Who wouldn't bow down to me. (Bow down to me bitches! Hahaha!)
"Lovely. It went well according to my evening plans," I say to her.
She smiles. "Very well. May I take your coat?"
"No. I may need it for later." Because I'll sneak out when everyone is fast asleep.
I walked away from the maid to the staircase that leads to several of rooms. My room was located at the very end of the hallway that curves alittle bit that makes it very hard to find except me who can find it. When it comes to my room, I'm very girly.
Painted in a dark cherry red color with a bit olive green, gave it that warm feeling as if my world is complete. On my desk their was a letter written in nice cursive with my full name on it. As I opened it says this
"On this special 15th birthday
There is a present waiting for you
Go to the Cave of Prophecy
And learn what you seek"
To learn what I want, to learn everything I want to knoe, I wonder what awaits me in the Cave of Prophecy.
It was so easy to sneak outside since my maids are so dumb (especially the blond ones) and basically don't even care if I'm gone. A walk from Crystia Village to the Cave of Prophecy through all of the snow took 10 minutes. Being an energtic fifteen year old to hold up her family name is so exhausting for me.
I heard many stories about this cave when I was young. One of the maids said that a huge crystal lives inside. The thing is, in that crystal is a trapped reincarnated soul, a mistress is inside imprisoned, wanting to go back to her body and live once agian. Her name is Lady Crystal, a women inside the crystal that appeared ten years after my parents died to save me. Inside of the cave, Lady Crystal is like a fortune-teller in her own way. She tells prophecies and destines for each person wanting a purpose in life. Some are good, some are tragic and very bad. To tell her you have to say these sentences to her like,"What is my purpose in life," or "What is my destiny."
Some are sent to the cave by letters or a spell that works against them.
However, somebody sent me a letter to go there on my birthday. Which is totally unheard of. I finally arrive to the cave as I see lanturns lighting the entrance. What I saw was some snow meltng into the bulb as the light dims away with every drop. Inside it was pitch black as my hands had to feel the cave walls to find the Mother Crystal of Prophecy (she was also called that). My eyes finally saw light at end of this darkness up ahead, I ran to see it was fully lit up as the Lady Crystal was sparkling so beautifully. She sits there looking so vibrant as ever seen (even though this my first time seeing her in person) her. But somebody beat me to it.
A cute, muscular guy was there with a quiver and a bow that he was holding in that strong grip of his. He was tall and lean about 5'6 of height. His hair was nice brown color, however his brown eyes are so warm that it actually melted my heart away. His eyes staring into my hazel eyes.
His straight posture is what makes him so handsome through his jacket and that black long sleeved shirt, I could tell he is very well-toned. There is so much to look at, I mean someone should shot me as I go to heaven. (Kill me now! I mean it! KILL ME NOW!) My mind was screaming at me as it prayed to God. He looked at me from head to toe checking me out.
"Who are you?" His deep voice reaches to me.
"I am Princess Caitlyn Bell. Someone sent me a message to make me come here. I came from Crystia Village," Why oh why, did I tell him where I live and my name. He better not start following me home.
"You are so not a prince-" His voice was inturrupted by a soft melody-like voice.
"Its okay Prince Jeremy. I have sent her the note to come here and tell her destiny on her fifteenth birthday." She was beautiful as she glowed.
"Fifteen? Just turned, right?" He looked at me with curious eyes.
"Yes,"
"Well then, happy birthday to you." Lady Crystal grew impatient quickly.
"May I remind you, Jeremy. You are sixteen. Don't tease Caitlyn, she is a very pure soul. Will you please come here Caitlyn and touch the Crystal Ball of Prophecy that is in front of you on that table."
My hands are already around the Ball. Light soon surrounds the ball as I let go. Her voice says this to me and that Jeremy guy:
"Using your gifts as princess; Light Magic
You will journey far and wide
High and low to search for the memories
Of your beloved birth parents
Light Magic combined with the flower
Will give you access of those memories
After knowing everytihng an enemy will arise and destroy
You and the close bonds of a soulmate
Will be able to send Light to the heart of Darkness
And return peace at last."
She didn't stop there as rapidly wrote all this down in the notebook I brought with me. Well, you never know what you may need in a situtation like this. She contiued concluding the long prophrcy;
"A journey were others will join the fight
To break Darkness and there bad deeds
As Light surrounds them with pure hearts
A wonderous weavier and Ice Sorceress
A Master of Magicks and Spells
A Warrior with great skill and knownledge
A Prince with psychic abilities of the future and past events
The two Chosen people of the Light Sorceress
And the Warrior/Prince will be together
In the end of all the chaos."
Finally she stopped. The light has disappeared from our surroundings. That guy Jeremy was behind me with his breath taken away, didn't say a word of offense to me. Of course, that was my prophecy. It talks about my parents and me about my Light Magic.
"Did this shock you, Princess of Crystia Village.'
"Yes it did." I tired (unsuccessfully) not to act scared in front of Mistress Crystal.
"Good. You must journey all over the Ice Kingdom to find the Ice Flowers of Memories."
"Ice Flowers?" I say confused, knowing I never heard of them in my entire life.
"Its a rare flower that hides in the most dangerous places all over the kingdom. If combined with Light Magic it will show a past memory of your parents. Be warned: memories come in differnt forms of ice flowers and colors."
"So what's the form and color of my parents?"
"The form of your parents is a light blue lotus blossom." Her shine starts to fade away from sight. Her final words before she left. "Good luck, Caitlyn Bell, Princess of Crystia Village. Come visit again when the following people are here with you. The journey you seek now has just started." Then she was completely gone.
All I did was I stood there unable to move but I had to get going.
"Well, I guess I gotta go start finding the Ice Flowers now." I walked past Jeremy, but he grabbed my arm so quiclky that it was a blur.
His eyes are full of understanding when he spoke to me. "Where do think you're going to look, Mistress." His voice was cold as ice.
"I'm going home, Mr Show-off-your-skills boy. To get my things ready and leave my Village."
"Mind if I tag along on your journey. I'll escort you home since its past dusk already. Is that okay?"
Omg! He's escorting me home! Okay, say no. Say no. "Sure. Do whatever you want." Dammit! Stupid little angel and devil versions of me in my head controling my actions! Screw them both (and I really mean it). I turned my head away since my face is blushing. By the way,
