Once upon a time, in a palace of many people and seasons, lived a king and queen with a princess and a prince. Her name was Katelyn Nicole. His name was Edward Ryan. They lived in a big palace in the middle of Brookshire, which was a kingdom in ocean on an island.

This island had been cursed by an evil witch who ruled the world millions of years ago. Her name was Medulla Lanai. She cast an evil spell on the world. It made everything on the earth, which was good, die. Then, the good witch, Elisa Anne, changed it back to normal and put a curse on the witch. But, the witch still had a little bit of magic left. She made the island change seasons every month with no patterns to make them pay. From then on, it changed seasons every month. You never knew what it would be the next day. You just had to be prepared.

The village was very small, but comfortable. The villagers were well fed and taken care of in two story houses provided by the king. The children went to school and played with their friends every day.

The palace was rather lavishing and very detailed. It stood on the highest hill, not too far from the village, and watched over the land. It sparkled on top of the hill. The village was allowed to visit when they had their Grand Balls of celebration.

One day, a strange boat was washed up on the shore, by the village. It had a very sea-sick young girl in it. They took her to the doctor’s immediately. The doctor said that the girl would be okay, if she got special leaves in the palace from the fall time. This means she’ll have to stay with the king and queen, until fall appears. Her name was Johanna Marie.

Johanna said that she was from another island named New Lagana. It was very small and didn’t communicate with any other kingdoms. She was out with her brother, Nicholas, when he fell out of the boat. Johanna looked everywhere in the water, but it was too dangerous. She decided that he was most likely dead and rowed towards the nearest shore. An awful storm came and washed away her food. She was dehydrated when she got to shore.

Prince Edward wanted to see Princess Johanna. He ran down the stairs and saw the beautiful princess laying there. Her hair was a golden brown and her eyes were a sparkling blue that reminded Prince Edward of the ocean. Prince Edward immediately fell in love.

The doctors scrambled in to helped Johanna eat. They pushed Edward out the door. He was very sad that he couldn’t spend any time with the beautiful maiden, but Edward had other things to do.

Later that day, another boat was washed up on the shore. This time there was a healthy, but evil, prince in the boat. His name was Fredrick James. He was the prince of a neighboring kingdom of Johanna’s kingdom and also the son of the evil witch. He was here to rescue her, or so they thought…

Meanwhile, in the hospital, Edward ran to see Johanna. They talked for hours. They found that they had so much in common. Johanna and Edward began to fall deeply in love.
Back on the shore, "Good day," Prince Fredrick said, "I hope you will welcome me to your village. I came here to see my bride to be, Johanna. Is she alright?" Little did they know that this was not Johanna's groom.
The villagers were kind and took Fredrick to Johanna's room in the palace. She was sound asleep. Edward had been caring for her since she had been washed up. He was in the closet trying to find the wash cloth he had dropped.
Fredrick slips in with the villager. The villager leaves to give Fredrick some time. He shuts the door.
"Oh, Johanna" he says in a menacing tone, "you're going to die." Johanna yawns and wakes up. "Say goodbye to your life." Fredrick pulls his sword out just as Edward comes out. Johanna screams for the guards.
"Stop!" Edward jumps to Fredrick and take the sword from him. Edward rushes to Johanna and gives her a hug.
"Oh! He was going to kill me! He's from Lebean, just across from our island. He wanted my kingdom."

“I will make sure he’ll never get it.” Edward told the guards to take Fredrick to the jail cells. “Now, for you, Johanna…hmm.” He thought for a minute, then, got down on his knee and proposed!

The wedding was held one month later, on a winter day. Johanna walked down the aisle in a very sparkling, white ball gown, as the snow fell gracefully on the ground. They said “I do” then had a royal ball. At the ball, everyone danced and had a great time.

And they all lived happily ever after.
