:00:08. > :00:10.Did you know there's a fantastical world where
:00:11. > :00:15.you can be whoever you want and do whatever your heart desires?
:00:16. > :00:19.It may sound like a far away place, but it's closer than you think.
:00:20. > :00:27.And for one lonely princess, it was everything she needed.
:00:28. > :00:31.From her attic room at the top of a giant castle,
:00:32. > :00:37.But it is also the place where Evil Arrow lives.
:00:38. > :00:40.Dangerous things happen when he's around.
:00:41. > :00:44.Things you wouldn't want to happen to you.
:00:45. > :00:48.and her new friend White Knight is made up.
:00:49. > :00:56.But what happens to the children we meet when Evil Arrow comes along
:00:57. > :01:06.Oh, yes, our heroine, Lost Princess, she lived in a castle.
:01:07. > :01:12.well, it wasn't castle, more like a house on a street,
:01:13. > :01:21.Lost Princess took a lot of care over her appearance,
:01:22. > :01:25.but online, there were no limits. She could look however she wanted.
:01:26. > :01:35.And to go with her purple hair, she chose a bright orange dress.
:01:36. > :01:49.In Wonder Web World, there were so many people to meet.
:01:50. > :01:58.Hi, I'm White Knight. I'm Lost Princess.
:01:59. > :02:00.Poison Apple appearing live and online.
:02:01. > :02:09.I've seen them play live. Wow. I'm so jealous.
:02:10. > :02:24.Darling, I've been calling you, it's time for tea. OK.
:02:25. > :02:26.What are you up to in here? Just homework.
:02:27. > :02:35.I'm finished now anyway. OK, see you downstairs.
:02:36. > :02:39.Don't forget your password, Lost Princess, if you leave it there
:02:40. > :02:48.That's what everyone thinks, but watch out!
:02:49. > :02:52.Remember, bad things happen when he's around.
:02:53. > :02:57.We've used actors to protect the real children's identities,
:02:58. > :03:03.but remember, these stories are all true.
:03:04. > :03:05.Lucy kept her password on her mobile.
:03:06. > :03:23.What, that spotty kid in year nine? Oh, he's gross.
:03:24. > :03:31.Lucy had used the same password for her e-mail account,
:03:32. > :03:35.so the bullies could read her mail and send nasty messages to anyone.
:03:36. > :03:38.She's such a loner, she's got no friends.
:03:39. > :03:41.Hey, Lucy, saw you at school today, your hair looks awful.
:03:42. > :03:49.But because they weren't actually hurting her,
:03:50. > :03:53.she wasn't sure if it was bullying or not.
:03:54. > :03:58.Are you fed up of our nice little chats?
:03:59. > :04:01.Shame, because we haven't even started.
:04:02. > :04:11.Enough was enough. And Lucy told her dad everything.
:04:12. > :04:19.They said it was bullying and that Lucy could have told someone sooner.
:04:20. > :04:24.I got a new phone number, new profile and a new messenger account.
:04:25. > :04:39.So, Lost Princess, remember what happened to Lucy.
:04:40. > :04:47.I wouldn't be bullied anyway, I've got loads of mates.
:04:48. > :04:59.But when faced with real people, she never quite knew what to say.
:05:00. > :05:04.because her online friends were always ready to talk.
:05:05. > :05:06.She had more contacts than she could count!
:05:07. > :05:09.But there was one person she spoke to every day.
:05:10. > :05:14.Whenever she came online, he was waiting.
:05:15. > :05:24.My parents are really horrible. Yeah, mine too.
:05:25. > :05:30.She doesn't care about me at all. Lost Princess, that's not true!
:05:31. > :05:34.I wish I could leave home sometimes. Me too. How old are you?
:05:35. > :05:38.Lost Princess, be careful about the information you share.
:05:39. > :05:49.If I tell him that, he might not like me.
:05:50. > :05:53.Lost Princess began to spend more and more time on the computer.
:05:54. > :05:59.Even when she was supposed to be in bed. Just like Kieron.
:06:00. > :06:03.Kieron started playing games when he was seven years old.
:06:04. > :06:15.By the time he was 13, he was playing every night after school.
:06:16. > :06:29.He even stopped washing or cleaning his teeth.
:06:30. > :06:36.That's it, son, I'm taking the computer away. No, you can't!
:06:37. > :06:41.You're on it 13 hours a day. I'll cut down, I promise.
:06:42. > :06:49.He would fall asleep in class before rushing home to get online
:06:50. > :06:55.and then he'd play and play, long after his parents went to bed.
:06:56. > :06:58.By the time he was 15, he'd dropped out of school
:06:59. > :07:01.and Kieron realised enough was enough.
:07:02. > :07:09.Dad, I think I need help. I think so too, son.
:07:10. > :07:26.Like Kieron, she spent hours on her computer chatting to White Knight,
:07:27. > :07:29.but there was one thing bothering her.
:07:30. > :07:34.So White Knight chose a photo to send.
:07:35. > :07:46.Lost Princess decided to send a picture as well.
:07:47. > :07:53.Suppose he realised she wasn't 13? He might not want to talk any more.
:07:54. > :07:59.So she spent hours taking the right one.
:08:00. > :08:04.Now he sent her messages all the time, even when she was at school.
:08:05. > :08:12.Guess who's got tickets to see Poison Apple live? Seriously?
:08:13. > :08:15.Yeah! You and me, seven o'clock tonight! But I don't know if I can.
:08:16. > :08:18.Yeah, cos you said you can go last time. Don't you want to come?
:08:19. > :08:32.Charlotte was excited about her new online friend, too.
:08:33. > :08:40.She had to lie on her profile and say she was 13, not 12.
:08:41. > :08:49.I've got a friend request. Do you know who it's from?
:08:50. > :08:54.Only one way to find out. Morning. Morning. Someone's up early.
:08:55. > :09:02.Her mum was so old-fashioned.
:09:03. > :09:12.Hmm. He's a friend of a friend from school.
:09:13. > :09:21.They talked about music and TV, her favourite foods.
:09:22. > :09:24.He was really interested in what she had to say.
:09:25. > :09:28.So Charlotte gave him her messenger address.
:09:29. > :09:33.It's OK, I know him now and he's older than me, so he is sensible.
:09:34. > :09:38.But when he was talking to Charlotte on her own, the boy was different.
:09:39. > :09:42.He asked her about stuff she wouldn't want anyone else to read.
:09:43. > :09:44.She tried not to talk to him so much.
:09:45. > :09:47.But it was hard, because he was always there.
:09:48. > :09:50.And then one day, he got her mobile phone number.
:09:51. > :09:54.It was an accident. My friend was asking.
:09:55. > :10:14.You haven't said a word to us all night.
:10:15. > :10:27.That's enough. Give it back! Ridiculous.
:10:28. > :10:31.That's my private property. I hate you!
:10:32. > :10:34.Charlotte was arranging to meet the boy the next day.
:10:35. > :10:38.Or she was, until her mum read the text. Charlotte...
:10:39. > :10:41.It turned out the boy wasn't a boy at all. He was a grown-up.
:10:42. > :10:51.And it wasn't just me, he was talking to lots of other girls as well,
:10:52. > :10:53.telling them the same as he did to me.
:10:54. > :11:02.But the thing about the internet is that you could be talking to anyone.
:11:03. > :11:10.But when she got to the gig, no one matched his picture.
:11:11. > :11:20.She sent him a text. Maybe he was already inside.
:11:21. > :11:24.Where are you, White Knight? The gig's about to start.
:11:25. > :11:31.She'd felt safe online, but Lost Princess had never been
:11:32. > :11:35.to a gig before and began to feel like she shouldn't have come.
:11:36. > :12:05.I do. I'd like you whatever age you are. Really?
:12:06. > :12:07.You'd like me just the same, wouldn't you?
:12:08. > :12:21.It's all right, Princess, it's White Knight.
:12:22. > :12:25.Oi, what are you doing here, mate? This gig's for kids.
:12:26. > :12:45.Meeting them online meant no-one would know who he really was.
:12:46. > :13:00.Lost Princess began to see how little she knew White Knight.
:13:01. > :13:09.Want to come to mine? Have you ever snogged anyone?
:13:10. > :13:30.She'd never be friends with someone like that in the real world.
:13:31. > :13:42.Did you know there's a fantastical world
:13:43. > :13:49.where you can be whoever you want and do whatever your heart desires?
:13:50. > :13:52.But always keep your personal details and password secret
:13:53. > :13:57.and remember when you're online, not everyone can be trusted.
:13:58. > :14:01.So if something doesn't feel right, tell someone in the real world.
:14:02. > :14:04.I'm Lost Princess and I live in a castle,
:14:05. > :14:07.but it's not really a castle, it's just my bedroom.
:14:08. > :14:26.There's more information about staying safe online
:14:27. > :14:36.about anything you've come across on the internet,
:14:37. > :14:52.you can speak to one of the team at Childline.
:14:53. > :15:02.Welcome, Newsrounders, Ayshah here with how to survive a typhoon on the
:15:03. > :15:03.way. Plus why these people are so happy. Stay
