The mirror was smooth and silky. My eyes were still sealed and I still felt my wet hair on my shoulders.

I didn't go anywhere, oh my gosh, I actually thought I would disappear, or die, or something would change.

Slowly I reeled my eyes open. There stood Brandon and my mother, both standing in the same position. Except they both were pale and staring at me in awe.

"What did I do?" I asked self-consciously.

"Nothing, dear, I-I w-will excuse myself from you two." my mother said strangely. She backed to the door and I think she ran when it shut.

Brandon stood there, frozen like ice. I walked away from the eerie mirror and toward Brandon.

He didn't back away or act like a madman. He just stood immobile.

"Ahem, Brandon are you alright?" I asked uneasily.

"Hmm.... Angela, have you ever wondered why you are your parents and you had completely different genes?" he asked quietly.

"Uh-h no?" I said bemusedly.

Well it was a kinda a lie. I noticed it all the time.

My mother and father had blond hair. My mother darker brown eyes and my father had greenish bluish eyes. My father and mother had collarbones and dimples while I had none. They also had a natural tan while I had fairer skin.

Brandon stood there tense and strained. He looked like he was going to run into a wall. His eyes were piercing, icy and scary.

"You are not a princess, are you?" he asked suddenly.

My heart jumped into my throat. That was not a good question and sign.

"What do you mean? I am." I said calmly.

"The Mirror of Memories showed some else with the crown and she didn't look like you. She had blond golden hair, and green eyes. And she looked like your mother.... I meant her mother." he said bitterly.

"You are a fraud." he spited.

Dumbfounded, I stood there staring at him. He believed that I was a spy, a crook, an imposter princess who killed/kidnapped the real princess?

"Brandon, I thought-t I am a princess." I said with a lack of confidence.

"Are you? The Mirror of Memories never lies. I think you are the liar." he said furiously.

"How should I know that I am fake? I have lived my entire life here. You are proof; I never changed to a blonde with green eyes. I always trusted you. I could never do that." I replied.

Tears were threatening to fall, but I knew I was stronger than that.

He stood there with clenched fists unsure of his anger.

Then he sharply turned away toward the exit.

Who am I?

Flashback
13 years back

Queen Amelia laid on the light turquoise bed. She was sound asleep and a baby laid in a cradle right next to her bed. The baby cried loudly when a woman entered the room. She was the doctor who did the surgery on the queen.

The lady had brown eyes and black hair. She gently put another baby next to the first baby. Then she lifted the first baby to her lap. The first baby screamed harder. But the queen and the whole castle was asleep because it was close to midnight. The woman leaned closer to the second baby and kissed her head. The second baby lay there tiredly.

"I am sorry," she whispered on the baby's cheek. Swiftly, she wrapped a brown woolen shawl around the first baby and took her outside. It was the coldest night of the century. A sharp breeze blew snow to them. Suddenly the ring of the clock begun. It was officially midnight.

It was February 12th and both babies just turned one. The woman ran out the castle and into the streets of Lily.

Meanwhile the second baby lay contented in the white cradle in the warm castle with her fake mother.
