Once Upon a Time—
Purple Mafia Style
By Seth AKA Indigo
Chapter One
"Ouch," the prince muttered, rubbing his forehead after running into a doorframe for the second time that day. His mother, Queen Zee, shook her head disdainfully. She was exasperated with her son who was now stumbling around, trying not to fall over.
"Your grace skills are quite impressive," she muttered, annoyed with her son's lack of the ability to act like a normal person.
"It's not my fault," he tried to explain. "It just..."
"It what? Jumped out when it saw you coming?"
"....Maybe," he replied with an idiotic look on his face.
The queen sighed, confused as to how she begat such a child. As she began to ponder the possibility that her child was switched with a dorky, unbalanced, idiot child, her thoughts were interrupted by the arrival of the king. King Tblz was disturbed to find a look of sheer agony on his wife's face. He looked from his wife to his son who was still clutching his forehead.
"What troubles you, my darling Cuddle Muffin?" He asked.
"Our son, Prince Seth, has ran into the doorframe again. I just don't know how much more his poor brain can take. He's always running into walls."
"And after that incident with your brother..."
"It's not my fault my brother dropped him when he was a baby!"
"More like threw him at the ground," the king added.
"I forgot he had epilepsy for one short moment and you'll never let me forget it, will you?"
"With an arm like that he could have made a great jouster," the king said, stroking his non-existent beard.
The king and queen continued reminiscing about Prince Seth's dearly departed uncle, who was killed by a raging goat that didn't share the same affections as he did. The prince saw this as his moment to break away. He ran for the door, pulled it open, and ran out into the hall. He ran so fast he didn't see the heavily armored guard escorting a fairy and a younger girl as he ran head first into the sentinel's thick metal helmet. The prince and the guard both instantly fell to the ground, unconscious.
The king and queen, distracted by the commotion outside, peeked out of the doorframe.
"Do my eyes deceive me or is that Erin, the fairy godmother?" the king asked.
The fairy godmother smirked and replied, "Your eyes do not deceive you my king'" She bowed her head respectfully towards him. A gesture he returned to her. The fairy godmother rested her hand on the younger girls shoulder. "This is my cousin, Bethan."
"I prefer to be called Jazz," the girl added, nodding her head towards the king and queen politely. She walked forward, to bow down before them, but tripped over the forgotten prince's legs. She stumbled forward, falling to the queen's feet. She looked back to see what she tripped on.
"Is this yours?" She asked, ever so politely.
With a flick of her wand, Fairy Godmother Erin had the girl back on her feet.
"Did I mention she's a distant cousin, twice removed?"
The king smiled gently back at his old friend, then looked at the crumpled body of his son on the floor.
"Would you mind?"
The Fairy Godmother Erin nodded, already knowing what he wanted. With a snap of her fingers the prince was on his feet, looking around very confused.
"This is my son, Seth."
"I do believe we've run into each other before," Jazz said, smiling and offering her hand to the prince. The prince stepped forward to take her hand, but stumbled over his own feet and fell onto the ground. He looked up at her, his cheeks red and hot.
King Tblz turned to Queen Zee.
"Now I promise not to get mad, my darling Breakfast Bagel, but are you sure this child is mine?'
