I slam the door of the cage of the thing I hate most in the world. My mothers dress, yes the iconic yellow dress that everyone thinks of when they think of Belle. I not only hate it because it's yellow, but I also hate it because of what it represents. It represents the high expectations that everyone on the kingdom holds me too. They think that I should be exactly like my mother, but Idon't think I could ever be as good as her. She also wants me to wear it because she wore it when she fell in love with my Dad doesn't mean I have to wear it to cotillion. She figures if I wear it I will fall in love while I wear it. 

If you haven't figured it out already let me introduce myself, my name is Beatrice daughter of Belle and Beast. But all my friends call me Trice except my brother and sister call me Bea.

 My brother is Ben and he is king of Auradon and because we are twins, I am Queen. Before we were born Maleficent put a spell on us so that the one that was born first would live and the one who was born second would die. So Fairy Godmother used a different spell to make us come out at the same time. So because the law is that the firstborn is to rule we both rule.

But I for my part hate being the queen of Auradon. Why do you ask? Because although I and my brother are supposed to be equals he has made up all these royal decrees especially for me, with the blessing of my parents I was outvoted 3 to 4. These include:

1. A royal blue floor-length cloak must be worn outside at all times.

2. When out in public a tiara must also be worn at all times too.

3. A team of 4 security guards must be with me at all times. (Luckily for me they are always hiding but if I need them I just call for help.)

But other than that I am free to do anything I want. I assume that they made these rules because growing up I was the twin who always got in trouble. My brother is such a goody-two-shoes it's sickening he is exactly like my mother always looks for the good in people and is patient and kind. I, on the other hand, am more like my dad at least the Beast version of him anyway, I have a very bad temper, but I can be nice too. Maybe that's why I like the kids from the Isle more than the kids from Auradon. I can't stand most of the kids from Auradon they are stuck up and snotty always bragging about their royal heritage and which one of their parents is a better hero. It drives me nuts. Especially Audrey and her cult following, she thought that because she was dating my brother she would be Queen but I put that to rest really quickly.

For the past 5 years, I have been sneaking off to the Isle every night. The first night I got there was interesting, to say the least. I met the love of my life, there who is obviously a VK, which would not be so bad if he wasn't still living on the Isle. His name is Harry son of Hook, he is really amazing really the first time I ever snuck on the Isle I bumped into him just walking around while he was on his rounds stealing for Uma. He gave me a tour of the whole Isle and then we started at the stars and talked all night. This soon became a nightly tradition.

 I met Carlos, Jay, Evie, and Mal the next day trying to find Harry they obviously knew I wasn't from the Isle so I had confided in them who I really was. They kept my secret for me and we soon all became very close friends. So when my brother first proposed the idea of bringing over some of the kids from the Isle I mentioned their names. Since there were only 4 slots I decided to have Harry come later. Harry didn't care because we both enjoyed our time together on the Isle. They also know about my relationship with Harry but, aren't super happy about it but, they support me because they love me.

 I didn't tell Harry who I was until we had been friends for at least 2 months. We were at our usual spot on the rooftop and I told him everything. I was honestly so scared because I knew how he felt about people from Auradon so I was so scared that he would hate me. I had already fallen in love with him and I wanted him to know the real me so he could fall in love with the real me.  After I told him he was quiet for a couple of minutes trying to process it. But then his lips were on mine and I obviously kissed him back. Then he told me he loves me, I, of course, said it back to him. Now here we are 5 years later Harry and I are getting married tonight. I am sneaking out of the palace tonight for the last time because I won't be coming back.

It was quarter to midnight and I finish my letter to my family it says,
'Dear family, please don't worry about me I have left because I don't belong here anymore I just don't fit in. I promise I am safe where I am going, please don't come and look for me it's not worth it. Maybe I will return someday so in my absence I leave Mal to be queen. I love you all, Sincerely Beatrice.'

I put the letter on my bed and then pick up my backpack which mostly just has clothes but also has my moms magic mirror and the book that my dad used to take my mom to Paris. The book will take you anywhere you ask it will also show you anyone or anything you wish to see, same as the mirror. My father wanted them to be put in the museum with everything that uses magic but, my mother wanted me to have them in case anything was to happen to her or to Auradon. I walk out my room to the back hallway that the servants use, it leads to the back door that they leave from at night. This is the only door that has no guards which in retrospect is a major security flaw someone should fix that. Once I am outside I head to the garden, in one of the bushes there is a secret hole that I hide my sword and the motorcycle that I ride to the Isle on. Little John and Robin Hood put it together for me and stole the remote from the limo that opens the barrier.  Just because they were robbers doesn't mean they should be on the Isle, besides they stole from the rich and gave to the poor. When I asked them to steal me the remote that opens the barrier they said it would be an honor to steal for the queen. And when it went missing I just order for it to be replaced and told everyone not to worry about it.

Usually ridding my bike would be easy because I usually wear pants to the isle but today I am wearing a dress. It's a crimson red, floor-length dress with a sweetheart neckline with beading on the torso and on a front panel. I'm wearing gold pumps and also gold sword earrings. Since I am gonna be Harry Hooks wife I might as well dress the part. This is what I look like when I go to the Isle, when I am in Auradon I just put on a brown-haired wig. I put my black cloak on, the one that I use to go to the Isle on and put the hood over my head. I also put a Bandana over my mouth and nose, its one of Harry's that I stole because it smells like him. I guess he has had a bad influence on me in that way.

 I walk my bike to the dock because I don't want anyone to hear it. I press the button to open the barrier and then start it up, the barrier bridge absorbs all sounds so no one can hear it. I ride over the bridge all the way on to the isle and to the Jolly Rodger. Harry brings it down from Neverland just for us so we can have somewhere private to be just us. I drive my motorcycle up the walkway and on to the ship. There is no one on the ship so I just leave my bike in the middle of the ship, I put the button in my pocket to keep it safe and walk to the Captain's quarters down in the belly of the ship. and knock on the door 4 times. I greeted by my love Harry at the door, he smelled of rum and cologne I honestly loved that smell. 

"Hello, your Majesty" Harry says as he bows.

"Hello, Captain Hook." I say as I wrap my hands around his neck, he wraps his arms around my waist and kisses me on the lips. He was honestly the best kisser in the whole world.

"Are you ready?" He asks.

"Ready as I'll ever be." I say.
