## History

### Season 1

Princess Rina was born in Flowering Kingdom to Queen Canaby and King Mild and the younger sister of Prince Trump and the younger half-sister of Prince Chess.

When Rina met Princess Shuel for the first time after the latter was abandoned by her biological family, they realise that they look like each other except Rina had brown hair, red eyes, red clothes and fire symbols, while Shuel had blonde hair, purple eyes, purple and black clothing and ice symbols, the two princesses would become adopted sisters and best friends.

One day, while playing with her siblings, Rina accidentally fell off a cliff and died. The entire kingdom was devastated by Princess Rina’s death, especially her family, her mother, her father and her siblings. Rina went to heaven after her death, but god gave her another chance at life and reincarnated her into a puppy.

Rina was reborn in Seoul, South Korea as a dog named Happy, who was found in a box on the streets as a puppy by a little girl named Ari Jin, who would adopt her and became her pet dog.

Around seven years later, when Ari bought home a female pink rabbit-like fairy named Ruby Pink Azalea and a male blue hamster who she nicknamed Tubby (actually Chess), Rina (as Happy) somehow recognises him despite Chess is stuck in his hamster form.

At the end of season 1, Trump and Shuel along with her female purple cat-like fairy Diamond Snow Beauty, lure Happy with toys until she got hit by a truck and had to go to the vet (without realising Happy was Rina reincarnated). After Shuel and Diamond Snow Beauty got kicked out of Flowering Kingdom, Shuel and Diamond realise that Happy was Rina reincarnated, so Shuel sacrifices her magic to heal Happy. Ari, Suha, Min, Ruby, Sapphire Forget-Me-Not, Topaz Dandelion, Flower Baby and Chess (as Tubby) saw Happy awake and well, Happy then transforms into Princess Rina, her true form (with her dog ears and tail still visibly showing and her left arm still bandaged), The Flowering Trio, The Flowering Fairies, Flower Baby and Chess are surprised to find out that Happy was Rina reincarnated. Rina hugs Chess (as Tubby) and cries happy tears, She thanks Ari and her friends for taking care of her, but she wanted to find out who her "saviour" was, then Rina’s flowering ring and transformation item, the Sparkling Nails appear in Rina’s hands.

Ari and her friends gave Rina a makeover to fit in with the earth humans. When she found out that Shuel was her "saviour", Shuel and Diamond apologised to Rina for almost killing her and Rina accepted her and Diamond’s apology, then when she heard that her mother and Trump were collecting Hopeless Energy, she wasn’t happy with them, but Shuel told her "Me, Chess, Flower Baby, Ruby, Sapphire, Topaz and Diamond will all be here for you, so will Ari, Suha and Min", calming her down. Rina accepts the offer to become the fifth member of the problem solving club and collect Hopeful Energy with friends, Rina watches the fireworks with her friends and bonds with Flower Baby and her ring begins to glow and her dog ears and tail begin to disappear in her human form.

### Season 2

With her bandage removed, Rina got officially adopted by Ari and her family as Ari’s younger sister but can still use her dog form at any time and now a member of the the problem solving club, Rina enters school as a Japanese exchange student by the name of Rina Hanasaki.

In episode 3, When Rina and Shuel have a desire to help Narae Oh, Shuel regains her powers and Rina becomes an adult for the first time as ballerinas.

### Future

After Queen Canaby was defeated and Flowering Kingdom and the human world were both restored to normal, Rina, along with Ari, Suha, Min, Shuel, Chess (whose human form is permanent (even in the human world)), Trump (who has reformed), Ruby, Sapphire, Topaz, Diamond and Flower Baby all decide to continue to help people as the problem solving club and protect the universe and fight evil.

Rina and Flower Baby say goodbye before Flower Baby returns to to her future timeline. Rina also gets over her fear of North Korea and has made peace with the country. Sometime later, After the flowering girls graduated from school, Rina met a handsome man and they both fell in love with each other. The handsome man proposed to Rina and she accepts the proposal, years later they both got married and moved to Tokyo, Japan where they raised their two children, a unnamed son and a daughter named Rukia, who resembles Rina. Rina still makes visits to Seoul, South Korea and Flowering Kingdom to visit her family and friends and has a bond with her niece Ami (Ari’s daughter and Flower Baby’s future self).
