Mister was stuck in a complete state of shock and dismay over what he was reading in his great grandmother's diary. It was full of information, but most of the details he could have lived without. Apparently her aunt's name was Morana, and she was the second born on her father's side. She clearly had no blood rights to the crown, but would have been next in line before Esmeralda was born because there was no one left alive on her mother's side. Once he got past all of the preliminary events and early squabbles, he got to the meat of the story. He jumped into the story with both feet at that point, but by the time that he realized that he was never meant to read this...it was far too late, and he almost started to wish that he had never gone there.Apparently, after Princess Esmeralda had suffered a lifetime of fake love and mental torture, at the expense of the hands of her twisted aunt, Morana actually had the nerve to murder Esmerelda's mother and father to take the throne, or at le
The new queen sat emotionless through her parents' funeral, and again through her own coronation. She smiled and waved on cue, and she gave the speeches like she was supposed to, but she was really just stuck on autopilot. She was so consumed with guilt, and her plan to destroy her aunt, that she was completely lost to everything else in her life. She stopped cooking like she used to, and her gardens all died. She even withdrew from her family. That's when she had her little castle built on the back of the property and she began to spend her days and nights drinking wine and conspiring against Morana. Her sisters and her children would come and try to see her, but she was too far gone. Nobody could reach her anymore. Nobody. Her guilt and anger had all but swallowed her whole. And then the fairies all disappeared. That was the first sign of what was to come, but everybody was so busy trying to avoid her at this point, that they had all completely missed it. She hid herself from th
When Caine finally woke up, it was all over the castle and it's grounds that LeRoy the monster dragon... the very beast that was made from Mister's own DNA.. was dead. There were mixed rumors going around about the question as to weather Caine had lived or died, as well.It took a few good days, but Caine, Della and Deena were going to be okay, despite all the talk around the castle. They were in fact, very much alive, but they were sore and really just wanted to rest, so they decided not to address anyone yet and they did just that. They rested.Caine had asked Sadie and Kate to prepare Queen Rebecca's old rooms in the forest villas for them. He and Della, along with Jason and Deena, all piled up there for the soul purpose of being waited on hand and foot. He figured they deserved at least that much, especially after all they had been through lately. Jason had calmed way down and was now enjoying his stay, since the doctor said that both babies were going to be okay. He still though
It had been days since Pearl and Mister had fought about that book. She and Justin had been laying low in the caves waiting for Mister to come for them, but he never came. Food and supplies were becoming scarce and Justin was getting impatient. He spent his days pacing back and forth in the cave and muttering to himself about something that Pearl couldn't quite make out. It didn't take too long for her to get sick of it and begin to jump on him and nit pick every little thing into a fight. "What the fuck is wrong with you?" She shouted at him in utter frustration."Can't you sit your ass still?" She yelled at him again from the back of the cave where she had made herself as comfortable as she could. "I'm sick and fucking tired of starving Pearl!" He shouted back at her incredulously, with a pained look on his face."This is no fucking life! This is straight bullshit! Who lives like this?!" He said while he continued to scream back at her."Well what the fuck do you want me to do?" S
Pearl was so shocked and devastated by what Mister had just done that she was literally frozen in place. Her mind was aware of what she had just seen, but her heart had not yet been convinced. Mister nonchalantly strolled over to her, still wearing that despicable grin on his face. It was in that moment that she discovered the crushing reality of it all. She was appalled at herself for the sudden and instant hatred that she was now finding herself feeling towards Mister. It was as though all of a sudden she had no idea who this stranger was that was standing in front of her where her beloved Mister had just been. She stood still while he slinked closer and closer to her. It was obvious to her that he still thought that he was in control of the situation, which pissed her off even more. She waited as patiently as she could, but the desire to hurt him was quickly welling up inside of her. Her mind was racing as she was trying to decide on the best course of action before he got too c
Mister suddenly found himself stuck in a total black abyss. He could feel the pain in his body, and he knew that he was alive. He also knew that it was just barely. He wanted to open his eyes but he just couldn't manage, no matter how hard he tried. He realized that he was completely powerless at this point and that was absolutely not in control of anything right then.Just as he felt himself fading even deeper into purgatory, he heard the wind pick up and he felt a hand on his shoulder. He wanted to be afraid, but he couldn't. Next he felt a light kiss on his forehead and he smelled the most wonderful and familiar smell he could ever remember. His fear instantly faded away when he felt his body becoming warm from the inside out and he knew for sure that his great grandmother was there with him.Mister took a deep breath and a smile slowly crept across his semi unconscious face because he knew that he was saved. It didn't take long for him to come back to life and wake up. His body v
Della woke up early the day after their engagement party, she couldn't help but to think about that horrible scream they all heard the night before. Caine sent several men into the forest to investigate, but no one saw a thing. She was still haunted by the terror and pain that she heard in that scream. It somehow felt like the perfect ending to a perfect night at Castle Free Sky. The castle most definitely seemed to have a flair for the dramatic. She was almost starting to believe that it was at least a little alive, like it really had a personality of its own.She found herself in a particularly good mood, despite everything that has been troubling her recently, and she was eager to get her day started. She headed for the bathroom and started up the shower, before she went pee and brushed her teeth while she let the hot water run in an attempt to warm the room up a bit. before she got undressed. The bathroom was beginning to get really steamy while she was standing at the bathroom s
It was late at night when Robert came strolling back into the cave with a shit eating grin plastered across his face. He had some news for his new bride-to-be, news that he was sure that would amuse her at the very least. "Where have you been, you disgusting frog?!" Queen Lacey shouted at him as she threw her excruciatingly dirty ashtray at his head, spilling ashes and cigarette butts everywhere, like she has done many times before. He didn't even get upset this time, he just swerved and dodged it with a sarcastic giggle and a sly look still smeared all over his gross little face. The sound of the ashtray breaking against the cold gray wall of the cave startled the already nervous fairy baby and she began to cry. “Now look at what you’ve done! It's your turn to shut the little brat up!” She shouted angrily over the screaming baby.“Shut the fuck up!” Robert shouted in the tiny child’s face at the top of his lungs, spit flying from his gross ass mouth and into her tear stained face.
Pearl watched in horror as a thick black fog filled the room, enveloping everything inside. She couldn't believe her eyes as she watched it raise Della from the floor and drag her from the doorway of the church, lifting her and tossing her roughly about. It was as though it were alive all on its own, and it had came just for her. It was loud, like a tornado blowing across the prairie, and it stank of death and despair. It pulled her down the hallway and up and down the corridors of the castle, like it knew exactly where to go, and then it carried her through the kitchen and right out the back door. Everyone that dared ran for her, making all kinds of attempts to pull her out, but they were all to no avail. Every time someone tried to help her, the fog would turn ice cold, maybe even colder than cold. It turned so cold that it was turning everything it touched to frozen glass, including the people. Della wasn't turned into frozen glass, though. She was simply carried away, kickin
Mister was both scared and relieved that his great grandmother had finally come to help him. He sobbed like a child at the sight of her and struggled to regain his composure. "Stop it child," his great grandmother told him, in an irritated tone."Get yourself together," she demanded impatiently. "I don't know how to fix this," he cried to her. "The only thing that you can do is follow through, son," she told him with total exhaustion in her voice. "How can I do that?" he asked sadly."I have no back up, no family, and no means," he reminded her through his pitiful cries.Queen Esmeralda sighed deeply and dropped her weary head before she started to speak again."Pearl lives, child," she explained as patiently as she possibly could.She put her hands under his chin and raised his head to look at her, and she said,"She has been taken back to the castle. Find a way to get to her and she will help you to make it all right."She sounded as though she was in a hurry so he didn't delay h
Robert waited as long as he could to make his way back to the caves. It was really the last place on earth that he wanted to be, but he currently had no other choice. It was freezing outside and there was nowhere else for him to go to get out of the cold. He cautiously scanned the scenery with every step he took, always on the lookout for Queen Lacey. He was pretty sure the coast was clear when he finally reached the opening of the cave, so he slipped inside as quietly as he possibly could. He didn't make it very far into the cave before he caught sight of her ugly ass sitting in the dirty chair that was leaning back against the wall. She was sucking on a cigarette with a mile long ash, as usual, and she was glaring at him with her slimy yellow eyes. Robert immediately recognized the look on her face and he instantly knew that he was about to have to fight. He tried to tuck his head in and just keep walking, but just as he feared, she was not about to let that shit happen. "So you
Mister stood frozen in place as his mind forced him to take it all in. He wanted to look away, but he couldn't, no matter how hard he tried. His eyes were wide open and his face had involuntarily contorted into a look of disgust. He had seen a lot of shit in his life, but this... this was some new level ass shit right here.Her hair had gone grey and it was tangled and matted. She was wrinkled and hunched over and her teeth were black with rot. She had a long, saggy pointed nose and her eyes were the color of puss from a bad infection. He wasn't sure if he had ever been so repulsed before in his life. Even her voice was ugly. She stood there cackling like a jackass and all he could manage to think was, 'dear God, no wonder they put her down.' "What's the matter, son?" she wheezed at him."Don't you think I'm pretty?" she cackled at him some more. "No, not at all," he managed to get out with some effort. "What do you want?" She asked him curtly, her face dropping and her tone becomi
Kate and Sadie were left to finish cleaning the kitchen, as usual. They both stood at the huge stainless steel sink, talking shit as they washed the last of the dishes from the night. Kate was mid-sentence when Sadie suddenly stopped her."Hey, did you hear that?" Sadie asked as she put her hand on Kate's arm to get her attention. "Hear what?" Kate asked sarcastically, as she turned her ear to the silent room"I don't hear a damn thing," Kate announced in an irritated tone.That's when they both heard a faint scratching at the back door. They both looked at each other wide eyed and slowly turned their heads towards the door. Kate covered her open mouth with her hand as they both stared at the door in complete silence. Waiting, listening for whatever would come next. They both held their breath for a moment, and then they heard it again. They looked at each other, wondering who would break fear first and go see what it was that was making those sounds this late in the dead of winter.
