The Princess frowned then as she looked at the frog,she wasn't going to kiss it no matter how many storybooks she read about kissing frogs and they turninto a prince,she shook her head,Princess Almira was eighteen and coming of age,she already had her father's throne once he died,the King was old and everyone knew that,they were just waiting.

' I'm sorry then ,even you could talk I doubt you would be able to understand me,' she told the from putting him down,' I have responsibilities and I don't want any more,kissing you would add more please I do want to marry and have kids and live happily ever after,but not yet,so hop away ,you'll find the someone you been looking for too.'
 

She then let the frog go then and he then hop away,she turned on the paved path in the middle of the garden and smiled,she felt at ease actually, that was easy enough too do, she focussed her mind on her duties now and started to walking to the Kingdom and her life she had waiting for it .
 

To live happily then ever after then too was a dream she thought,a nice one though but only a dream however, she then was only eighteen and not ready for marriage she would have time for that any ways.
 

Princess Almira then was thinking thoughts only she knew of .She knew as Princess she had duties to take care orders from her father she had to obey by .She would indeed have time for romance and love,but not now.

Princess Almira then knew she had to tackle her biggest threats before then being a Princess .Her fears,mainly not depending on her father to much .She wanted a kingdom of her own, to rule like her father and be strong too as well. 

As then  Princess then was heading back to her kingdom, the frog she did not kiss was unhappy he now had one more chance to turn back into the Prince he was and break the curse from the evil witch that changed him Now as he then had had  waited again the curse indicated that he had two chances to return to his normal self only before the Moon had gone down two times and then the time of the Witching .

' That stupid girl,' commented then the  Prince as he watched Almira leave , he stuck his tongue out and caught a fly,yuck he hated flies .' She don't know what she was giving up .' He stayed in the garden awhile longer, at least flies aren't fattening ,he thought catching another fly .
 

Now then the too the  frog stayed by the moss next to a tree,the first tree that one sees when entering the woods of the Kingdom,then too  these woods except for a few brave and misguided kids have ventured into the woods or scared women afraid of their knights when they came home,it was said strange creatures lived here,the undead who feed off those from the Kingdom like Princesses or Princes ,children especially children they loved to eat.
 

Then the  Prince watched the moon as it rose to its highest point in the night  sky that wastwo now and he took a deep breath,if the curse was true in  fact another young girl would be walking by,but that would be almost in fact impossible if Almira's Kingdom then too  was the only one nearbythen ,to the Prince though he had no kingdom unless he could be Prince again, his lay a few miles downstream of then the  Magic Stream or River too. He so much wanted to return to his Kingdom .

 Princess Almira then did indeed return to the Kingdom but not before she suddenly knew there were subtitle changes in the Kingdom.

Peoples then behavior then were then  different,hostile toward each other unrestful and even lazy too. Then she then too knew that something didn't happen perhaps not kissing the frog made everyone hostile .But she was not about to do that,that was her last option she wanted to do .It would take a force greater then she was to kiss a frog no matter if he indeed was a Prince .

She was not ready.

Meanwhile then too  in a mountain area nearby a sound could be heard,the sound of laughter,but not good laughter,an evil laugh ,one that belong to a woman, not an old woman but not yet young any more either .

Her name then was  Mildred. Mildred was not pretty by any means neither was she ugly, just her life was a lonely one and as such in this era in fact those that are lonely often sought companionship by other means usually by that of magic or spells that could last a long time as well. Mildred wanted any man, like her,he did not have to be handsome .
