It was midnight. Shama went to the royal backyard.
"Will it be alright? What if it's a trap for me?"
Shama thought while walking.
"But the letter said that he/she has the evidence which can prove my parents right. I can't miss this chance. I will be careful on the way."
Shama thought while grabbing the sword tightly. She reached the royal backyard. But there was no one to be seen.
Just then a note hit her head; Shama rubbed her head and looked around angrily. She saw a note lying on the ground. She opened the page and read.
"Look to your left, there is a bunch of paper covered with red clothes"
Shama looked to her left.
Shama went to the camp. More people were added to the camp. They were now running out of supplies. Shama helped everyone take medicine. After some hours all the people were settled there. Shama took a chair and sat there. "Our economy is very poor. We are now running out of supplies. Slowly we won't be able to afford the huge loss and we will be destroyed completely by the higher society." She said scribbling something on the ground. "But I have an idea. This city is well known for finding precious stones and treasures. As I know there is a mountain where we can find many big treasures. If we trade them to other places we can gain a huge profit." She said showing a map on the ground.
The next day Shama woke up on her bed. All the maids were surrounding her."Her highness is awake."Everyone shouted."How are you, your majesty?"Everyone asked. Shama sat on the bed. Her body was feeling weak. Her head was heavy. She touched her head. It was burning. Shama was running a high fever."I am fine. Don't panic. Well, who brought me here?"She asked."I don't know. When we came here looking for you. You were lying on the sofa in the hall of the palace. We brought you to your room and saw that you were running a high fever. Everyone is worried about you."A maid answered."I fainted on my way here. Who brought me back?"Shama thought scratching her head."I am fine. Don't stop your work for me. Go back to the camp. Who is looking after the sick person in the camp if you all are here?"Shanaya said glaring at everyone angrily."Your highness, everyone there is also worried abo
Shama sat on her palace balcony, watching the peaceful scenery, birds chirping and singing melodies as they welcome a new beautiful morning. The cool breeze gave Shama a new and hopeful vibe. "After some tiring months, At last, I got peace of mind," Shama said stretching her hands. "Your highness, your coffee is here." The maid said knocking at the door. Shama took the cup in her hands. "A new morning is here. Now, I am the real princess, Shanaya." Shama said sipping the coffee happily. "Princess Shanaya." A voice shouted. Shama looked at the field. Yug was standing there w
"There is good news for you" Raghav said wiping his mouth. "What?" Shama said with her mouth full of food. Raghav laughed at her. "Ahem, the emperor has invited you to the imperial palace. The royal family is having a meal together. All the people wanted you to be crowned as the princess of our clan. You will take over our clan soon. Congratulation sister, you are a part of the royal family now." Raghav said cheering her. "When was I not a part of the royal family? They never got that authority. I am superior to them all. This is the truth that no one can change." Shama said standing up from the table angrily.
Shama reached the imperial palace. She wore a simple gown with a pendant with a small earing. Her hair was open. Her long, black and shiny hair added more beauty to her appearance. Shama walked inside the palace.All the royal members were sitting there. She bowed to the emperor and took her seat. Everyone chatted with each other. The maids served them food. Shama kept quiet and watched. Rehan was also there. Shama ignored him completely.Just then a woman sitting next to her said in a taunting manner,"Princess Shanaya, It's a royal gathering for our family. Why are you here in such simple clothes? We heard that you have so much wealth and intelligence. But it doesn’t look like it. Ha-ha." She mocked her.Shama kept calm."Simplicity is the best beauty. I don't want to show off my power and wealth in front of small ants that I can crush in a minute. What I have is something that can't be hidden."Shama said smiling. The woman looked a
The next day all the princes and princesses reached the mountain. Everyone brought one or two helpers with them."We could bring helpers too? The emperor intentionally didn't tell me."Shama mumbled as she joined the crowd.All the princesses wore long gowns and carried an umbrella to protect them from the sun."Ugh, it's so sunny. Brother, you should go and join the contest. I will stay here and pray for you to return triumphantly. My skin will be bruised. My pretty face will have dark spots from the sun. My beauty should be well preserved."A princess said acting all pitiful. Shama saw them making faces and acting like that."Bruh,"Shama said looking another way.Shama wore a shirt and pant just like all the princes. She tied a ponytail and carried a bag pack with her. All the people were looking at her like they have seen an alien standing in front of them. Shama ignored their weird glare.She looked at the tall moun
Just then an announcement was made."All the kids participating are requested to do this contest fairly. All the children should make a team of 4 or 5 members. The contest starts now."Everyone was excited. "I will team up with you,"Naina said hanging on Shama's shoulder."But..."Shama hesitated."No buts, I want to team up with you and that's it,"Naina said taking her to Rehan and Ansh."What? Shama is going with us?"Both Ansh and Rehan shouted."Yes, you both don't want to team up with her?"Naina asked."No"Both of them shouted together. Shama narrowed her eyes and glared at both of them."Then join another team. We will ask someone else to join us."Naina said angrily. Ansh and Rehan looked at each other."Yes, yes we want to team up with Shama."Both of them nodded their head in agreement. Naina smiled happily."So LE
Shama ate her food. She went to wash her hands in the pond. It was dark. Shama couldn't see anything. She carefully walked in. Just then someone hit her head and Shama fainted. "I was careless." Shama thought as she fainted.---------------------------------------------------------------------------Shama gained a little consciousness. "Don't blame us; Blame yourself to be born in the first powerful clan. You have to die so that we can survive." She heard a person saying."No, I can't die right now. What should I do? I can't move." She thought as she tried to
