Saying Too Much
Once upon a time, in a country far, far away, there lived a girl. Her name was Aloda and she was the princess of the secret country Hulaba. Hulaba was the most beautiful country anyone had ever seen and the people living there all shared the love for their country. Their country wasn't the biggest existing that time, but it for sure was the most beautiful one. Surrounded by ocean on all sides, palm trees, mountains, beaches and trees giving the most exotic fruit anyone could ever wish for. The only bad part of living in this great place was there were one rule, the one rule that never stopped bugging Aloda. When you were born on this island, you were never allowed to leave. This island was about to stay a secret from the rest of the world.
There's a legend that one of Alodas ancestors, Monodi, who ruled the island thousands of years ago, left. He built a boat, brought his servants, and sat off to the unknown. Time went, and time passed and finally they hit the main land. They were the first ones ever from Hulaba who had ever been outside the island. What they saw frighten them. There were wars, there were death and there were sadness. They made a pack, never let these people find our country, that includes never letting anyone leave or anyone arrive. Since the day they came back, the pack became a law.
One morning, sunny as always, Aloda woke up, ready to run away. She was sick of being stuck in the palace, sick of her bossy parents and most of all she wanted to escape. Escape from Waldi, her soon to be fiance. She was eighteen now, and just a week after her birthday her parents had found her a man suited to be her husband. Someone had to keep the family going, and her parents was about to make sure she would. She packed her bag, ran down through the secret tunnels that led to the one place just her family knew of. The escape port. The escape port was made in case the island ever was going to disappear, so they, the royal could escape and survive. She put the sails up, pushed the boat off the shore and sailed away without looking back.
Land was in sight, after many days she was there. She made it. This new place confused her. She saw things she had never seen before, she couldn't even figure out what they were. For the first time in her life she felt free. She explored this new place, met people and eventually fell in love. His name was Jermey, he was a doctor and was one of the first people she met in this land. He cared very much about her and they were even expecting a baby in just a couple of months. One night, when they were about to go to bed, she started thinking of her parents. Her family that would never meet her baby. Jermey comforted her and it all suddenly slipped out of her. About her country, her family, her journey and the pack. His reaction was like nothing she would ever expect. He smiled, ran out of their home and left her crying alone.
It all turned out that Jermey was an history scientist, and Aloda hadn't been more than just a science project. It didn't take more than a week or so before Jermey and his crew was out of town. They were in her town. Another week passed and her country made the news, lost their rights and got a new name. Hawaii.
