I was told once that evil isn't born, it's made. I had laughed at that, but the person telling me had been serious. They were wrong.
I am living breath proof that evil is born. Alice's pain brought me into existence, and I live off of her failure. Every time she is hurt or sad, I become stronger. My evil wasn't made, it was born.
I never asked for any of this, I never wanted to be an alter ego. I am nothing but Alice's counter part, unable to ever be complete. I'm not my own invention, I'm not my own person.
Don't get me wrong, I can think and feel for myself, but everything that I am is a mirror of what Alice is. I'm what she should be. What she will soon wish she is.
From the beginning I needed power. I thought that it would make me feel less empty inside, that it would make me feel whole. I was smart, and would do anything to destroy my enemies. Power was the only thing that I wanted. It was the only thing that could help me.
I don't think that I have ever known love. I used imagined what it was like, what it might feel like. In the end I pushed these fantasies away. Love was weakness. Therefore, since I cannot prove a lover, I am determined to prove a villain.
It's easy to judge people like me. It's easy to hate us, to think that we are heartless, soulless monsters. I guess that's not entirely false, but believe me when I say that, if I was given the option, I would have chosen to be good. I would have chosen a blissful life instead of this vile existence.
Oh, woe is I, to have known what I have known. To have lived only by hate and be fueled by fear and melancholy. I can't change now.
The one thing that I wish for, is to put an end to Alice. To free myself from the pain of having to be her other half. That is a wish that I will someday accomplish. Taking over Wonderland would make this all the more easy.
Now, I all I can do is wait. Wait for Alice to come, as I know she will. Wait for the chance to free myself.
After all, the strongest sources of power aren't made, there're born.
Hello readers!
This is a oneshot that I thought up while listening to Wonderland. I like to quote songs, books, movies, TV shows, musicals, Shakespeare, etc. I quoted a lot of things in this story, and I'll be glad if you recognize any of them.
Thanks for reading!
