The Lucky Little Princess

"Brown!" the little orphan girl Jennifer called out as she ran inside the Rose Garden Orphanage. Brown came galloping in as it lets out a little bark. She smiled as she bended down and picked it up. She closed near him and rubbed their noses together. The small puppy liked the rubbed and licked her face. She let out a giggle as Wendy watched them sadly from stairs on the first floor. She walked away as Diana came walking from the Headmaster's room. "You're still playing with that filthy dog, Jennifer?" she asked as she looked the other way. Jennifer glared at her as she replied, "Brown is not filthy, he's sweet, adorable, and a cute puppy. Isn't that right, Brown?" The puppy lets out another bark as she giggled and hugged him again.

Diana rolled her eyes as she walked towards the bathroom. The girl kept Brown close to her chest as she walked upstairs and into the Filth Room, her bedroom. In her room, she thought about Wendy and her distance between them when Brown arrived. "Why, doesn't Wendy like you, Brown?" she asked him as she laid him on the ground. He barked as he scratched his ear. She smiled as she said, "Maybe, you're right. She'll like you once she gets to know you." The door was knocked as Jennifer gasped a little and stood up quick. "Miss Jennifer? Can I see you for a moment?" The headmaster requested as she glanced nervously at her dog. "Yes." she said as she walked out of her room and into the hallway. She closed the door behind her as she looked up to see the headmaster looked at her stern.

"I see you once again you forgot to help clean the mansion with the other children? Filthy girl." he said as he pointed his finger at her. She didn't flinch at it since she been through it a lot. "Your punishment is to exterminate rats in the library." he told her in a serious voice. She frowned at that idea and thought to herself, 'Why doesn't he give punishment to those boys playing swords instead of cleaning, or Eleanor for skipping her sweep duty, or Meg looking at the books instead of dusting them off?' "The boys and girls are good little children that actually help, while you are the bad seed that doesn't help one bit." he scolded her with his finger pointed towards her.

"I expect to see no rats in the library at sundown or no dinner." he told her. He walked away and closed the door behind him. She looked at the closed door and said, "I don't get dinner, since I always get ushered out of the dining room. I just eat Xavier's chocolate or Amanda's lollipops." She walked back into the Filth Room as Brown was playing with her shoe's laces. She smiled as she said, "Come on, Brown, time to work." She picked him up and went towards the library.

In the library, Jennifer squashed rats with a dirty, old umbrella as Brown was trying to catch the rats around the room. "Where are you?" she said as she looked around to find more rats. "Found you!" she exclaimed as she found a black rat and squashed it. "Done, Brown, let's go throw these rats away or Martha will scream so loud it'll break the windows." He let out a bark as she gathered the rats in a small, paper bag. She ran out into the inner court as Brown followed her. She threw the rats into the can as Brown watched her from the steps.

She turned as she walked towards him. "You're my good friend and almost best." she said as she held him close. "Let's go find Wendy." she said as she walked towards the dormitory. As she walked up the steps, she found Amanda and small girl talking. "Oh, Jennifer, Wendy is looking for you." Amanda said while giggling weirdly. They both curtsied since it's a new rule in the orphanage for girls to curtsy each other as the boys bowed. She curtsied as she asked, "Where is she now?" "She's in the classroom right now." she replied as she turned back to the girl and started talking. She walked towards the hallway and entered in the classroom.

"Wendy?" she called out as she searched in the empty classroom. Brown let out a bark as it whimpered. She rubbed behind his ears to comfort him as she walked to the middle of the room. "Wendy?" she called out again. "Hello, Jennifer." Wendy said as she stood at the door. "Why is Brown here with you?" she asked while looking at him mad. "Well, I didn't want to leave him alone in that rickety shed, so I brought him here." she explained as she beamed. "Brown can take care by himself." Wendy said coldly. "He can't! He's only a puppy and he has no mother." she replied as she held him close. "That's too bad for him." she replied more coldly. "Why are you talking like that Wendy? Why are you mad at him for? He didn't do nothing." she asked sadly and confused.

Wendy shook her head slowly as she said in a low whisper, "I'm sorry, Jennifer. I'm kind of mad that you're with Brown all the time instead of me. I see you and Brown play all the time as I watched from a distance. I forgot that he's still a pup and has no parents like us. I'm all alone. Sorry." Her eyes brimmed with small tears as Jennifer looked at her sadly. "You're not alone! You have me and Brown! If you want to play, then you can come with me. You don't need to be jealous of Brown. You two are the only friends I have now. We should stick with each other and show the girls that friendship is more important than a club." she exclaimed as she took Wendy's hand with her unoccupied one as they looked at each other.

Wendy smiled as she muttered a thank you to her. They let go of their hands as Wendy said, "I got to feed Mr. Bunny now. See you around lunch." She ran out of the room as Jennifer and Brown went to the balcony to enjoy the morning breeze. They went outside on the balcony as Brown ran ahead of her. As she closed in, she found Brown sniffing a storybook on the table. She got curious as she looks at it. 'The Lucky Little Princess.' it said on the book and it showed a girl covered with clovers. She opened it and read it all.

'Once there was a little girl. This girl had the greatest luck than the other boys and girls. She had the riches of a king and the respect of a queen. Her looks were perfected with her sunny glow and cheery smile. She was so very happy. Then one day, her luck went and got bad luck instead. Her life was miserable from that day on. She grew up to an ugly, old hag that doesn't have that same cheery smile anymore, hated by the world, and went to a poorhouse. The End.'

She closed it as she looked at Brown, who looked curious at her. "I hope I don't end in that way." she said as she rubbed his head. She picked him up and went inside as it began to rain. In a tree house near the balcony, Diana, Meg, and Eleanor were watching them go inside. "This won't do, won't do at all,." Meg said somberly as she shook her head. ", She's not even intimidated by that book." "She's a big thorn in our sides and such a pain." Eleanor replied coldly. "That filth is in our way and hurting our princess." Diana said as she looked the other way. "What shall we do?" Eleanor questioned while staring at them. They bended their heads and sat in silence. "I just have an idea." Meg said as she looked up with mischievous look in her eyes behind those round glasses.

Jennifer was writing some things on the chalkboard as Brown played around with the Bucket Knight. 'Brown, you better don't…NO, my head!!' the Bucket Knight exclaimed as his bucket fell off from Brown's shoves. He walked over and jumped inside as the Bucket Knight mumbled. She giggled as she picked up Brown and put him on her bed and put the bucket on the knight's neck. 'Thank you.' he said as he tilted his bucket. "Your welcome." she replied back while smiling. "Jennifer, lunch!" Wendy called from the stairway. "Coming!" she called back. She kissed Brown on his forehead and whispered in his ear. "I'll bring some food for you." He barked as she ran out of the room.

Moments after she left, Brown curled into a ball and slept on the quilted bed. Three faces sneaked a peek around the door and saw no one, but Brown. They entered in as Meg pulled out a vial. "And what is that suppose to do?" Diana asked while at the purple liquid in the round-shaped vial. "Once this enters Brown, it'll slowly make him disappear like a ghost. Once this step is complete, then little Jennifer will feel devastated that she soon join the Aristocrat Club." Meg explained as she watched the liquid rolled back and forth. "Why do we want to have that pain in the club?" Eleanor questioned coldly. "The Rose Princess wishes so. If she wishes, it'll be granted." Diana said as she looked at Brown. "But to have her in our club, we have to take of this small problem." she continued as Meg took out the cork and slowly poured it into Brown's opened mouth.

"Brown, I got some treats for you." Jennifer called out from the hallway. "Dang, she's back!" Diana cursed silently. "Just one more drop." Meg said as she poured the last drop into his mouth. "Let's go and see what's next." Eleanor said as they ran silently away. Jennifer entered with a plate full of goodies and some sausage. "I got the last batch from the table, Xavier was about to eat more, but since Thomas challenged him to a sword fight, I got it before him." she told him as she moved to her bed and sat on it. She laid the plate on the floor near Brown as he was still sleeping. "Brown, are you alright?" she asked as she nudged him a little. He laid still. "Brown?" she questioned as she nudged him a little harder. He wouldn't budge. "Brown!" she called as she tried to wake him up.

"You know that Wendy is seeing a boy who lives with his dad that puts him in shackles." Amanda told the complaining princess as she was in the sewing room sewing a rag dress with no thread. "Uh-huh, she says that he lives locked up in the basement because of something happened." she said as her hand was covering her mouth. "BROWN!" a voice called out loudly. "Who is that?" she asked with a frightened look. "It sounds like Jennifer." Amanda said as she looked at the dress. They heard running steps passed by as the steps became quicker. "What do you suppose happened?" she asked her. "It must be the aristocrats doing." Amanda said as she folded up the dress.

In the sick bay, Jennifer laid Brown on the bed as the Headmaster glared at her and said harshly, "This is the SICK bay, not a pet bay! Get your mutt out of here!" "Headmaster!" a voice called out. They turned to find Diana curtsied with a smirk on her face. "I need to talk to you about something, would you mind if we go in your office?" she asked with a wink. "Sure, Diana, one second, you don't touch anything." he told Jennifer while pointing a finger at her. He left following Diana as Jennifer put her head on the bed.

"You think this is going to work?" Eleanor asked Meg as they both sat in the reception room. "It has to; I researched the whole book on potions and conducted the perfect formula for the concoction." Meg told her as she moved her glasses towards her face. "Where is Diana?" Meg asked her while looking around. "She is talking to the Headmaster about this secret plot of the Aristocrat Club." Eleanor told her. "Yes, but still he is an adult. You think Diana would trust the Headmaster of this plan?" she questioned as she looked at her notebook. "Don't know, he maybe an adult, but he was here since we came here." Eleanor told her short and simple. "You know we need a prince in a club." Eleanor told her out of the sudden. "Sure, we do. We got Xavier, Tho-." Meg was cut off. "No, I mean a real prince like the Rose Princess." Eleanor said as they thought it over. "You're right; it's time to find a true prince for our princess's heart." Meg said as she looked at the vase of red-colored roses.
