The Queen watching them the entire time and was becoming more and more angry with what she was seeing. She noticed that Astria was talking to the one guy she didn't want her too.

"That brat. . . Talking to the one man that I didn't want her too. This is not good. Damnit!" The queen said and stormed off.

She made her way to her mirror room and stood in the center of the room. She looked directly at the mirror that was on the wall alone. "Mirror, mirror on the wall who's the fairest of them all?" She said.

That's when the mirror came up and looked at the queen. "My queen you are pretty but there is one that is far more fairest than you. Astria is the fairest of them all." The mirror chanted and then turned back to a mirror.

The queen stood there shocked as she heard this. It was not the answer she wanted to hear. And it just made her even more angrier than what she was. "So she is the fairest of them all huh? Then we shall see what happens once she is dead." The queen spoke.

She then summoned a hunter and ordered him to go and kill Astria. The hunter accepted the job and started to make his way to find the princess.

Meanwhile Astria was walking around the castle and greeting everyone that she walked past. Staff members or nobles alike. She greeted them all with a smile on her face and a happy look.

"Hello Princess!"

When Astria looked she saw there was a group of children who ran over to her with a happy look on their faces. Astria looked surprised and smiled at them all. She crouched down to get on eye level of the children. "Hello there. What can I do for you all?" She asked them all with a bigger smile on her face.

They looked at her with a bigger brighter happier smile on their faces. Looking at eachother and then back at Astria. "We made you something as a thank you for earlier!" They said to her.

Astria looked surprised at the children when she heard the words they had just said. "You did? Really?" She sounded surprised and then gave a happy smile. "Thank you so much! What is it?" Astria asked the children while looking at them all.

The children once again looked at eachother and then back at Astria. Hesitated for a minute but then one of them held out the flower crown to Astria. Astria looked surprised but very happy with what the children presented her with. "oh wow! That's beautiful!" She said.

Once she said that she bowed her head and let the children put the crown on her head. When she bowed her head the children looked happily and placed it gently on Astria's head. "Hope you like it, princess!" They all said at the same time.

Astria lifted up her head so she can look at the children better once again. Staying crouched down so she can look at them in the eyes and nodded her head at them all. "I'll treasure it for as long as I can." She said to them all and smiled.

The children all gave happy laughs and hugged Astria. She hugged them back and stayed like that for a few seconds then the children all ran off to go and find their parents in the grand hall. She smiled as she watched them all run off.

She was happy that all of them was happy. When she turned around and started to walk down the halls again. She encounter the hunter. She blinked a few times in confusion.

"Hello, who are you?"
