Okay so this is my first fanfic, so please feel free to fire off the constructive criticism. Also, I will tell you that none of this is going to make any sense at first... Just wait until you read a few chapters, then it will begin to make some sense.. And since I have nothing else to say, I'm just gonna do the disclaimer then get to writing, so... Yeah.

Disclaimer: I don't own Titania, the Fairy Kingdom, or anything else that's familiar to you.

Prologue

I walked slowly down the main aisle, all 456 (A/N: that's 228 people) eyes on me. I came to stand before the presiding judge, who just happened to be the queen – and my older sister. Technically speaking, I should have been queen, but… Needless to say, things just didn't work out. I don't need to say anything else against the jerk I have for a sister.

I'm sure you're wondering by now who I am and what I did that is so evidently awful that I ended up here, in the Fairy Court.

Well, I am Kalliana Danae of the Winter Moon, but everyone calls my Kayla. As for what I did.. Well, that's a long, convoluted, very incredibly dull backstory that I don't want to get into, so I'll make it short. I have been accused of -

"Multiple accounts of breaking and entering, treason, arson.." and that was just the beginning of Titania's mile-long list. Wait, did she say arson? Let me say this: I hate fire with a burning passion. Pardon the pun.

Figuring this was going to take a while, I stretched my wings - a wingtip-to-wingtip measure of fourteen-ish feet meant I had the biggest wingspan of anyone. Kinda figures I'd be cursed with bat-like wings instead of the beautiful gossamer wings everyone else had. I folded my wings back and blew a strand of short, raven black hair out of my eyes. I realized very quickly that I was getting very bored from just standing there. Damn ADHD, I thought.

"and... Kalliana, are you paying attention?" Titania demanded.

"Actually, I'm not. Thanks for checking, though," I replied, "but honestly, Ti, I think we all get it. Do you really want to put us to sleep with that list of accusations of yours?" Titania stiffened a bit when I used her nickname; nobody had called her that for a few hundred years or so.

"She's right, for once," a voice cut in. Thank you, Lord Oberon. He seemed to get my silent message of thanks and smiled down at me briefly.

"Fine," Titania said, turning back to the audience, who were hoping for the worst for me; everyone here hated me except for my mother and Lord Oberon, and that's only because Titania hates me. Titania's word is law here, even undermining her husband, the king.

"Kalliana Danae, because you have been, and still are, a public menace, you are hereby ba-"

"Titania, wait," I said.

"Sorry, what?" she challenged.

"According to your laws, I am allowed to speak before being sentenced." I said. Lord Oberon nodded in agreement.

"Fine, but make it quick," Titania snapped.

"I understand that you all are concerned with what had happened here these past years, and honestly, I cannot speak for most of the occurrences. However, I know that you want somewhere to place the blame, so I will take that blame. I have decided that I wish to leave, so that I may keep whatever dignity that would be stolen from me if I were exiled. So it is now, with a heavy heart, that I say farewell to you all, and may you find eternal peace and happiness someday."

Titania smirked, having gotten exactly what she wanted. I would be cast into the Mortal world, with no connections to my past whatsoever.

"Wait, Kayla," Oberon said, "before you take your leave..." He floated down until he was standing on the same ground as I was. "May your wings carry you to eternal happiness one day, he said."

Titania's eyes widened as her plan backfired. Lord Oberon's blessing meant I could keep my ties to the Fairy Kingdom - including my wings.

"Thank you, my lord," I said, bowing deeply. And with that, I took off, not having a clue what I was doing, where I was going, or how I was going to survive in the Mortal world.

Woohoo! Lots of words for the prologue! Sorry, that sounded weird, but I tend to write shorter chapters... I'll try and work on that so people actually have reading material.
Please review!
