The Daughter of Evil
A/N: Alright, so I tried writing this from Rylee's PoV on my first shot and it ended up ... pretty boring. So I decided to write it from a different character's PoV and it ended up much better. Which is what you're reading right now...Now the character telling the story is actually a mix of 2 characters from the original songs. She'll be representing both Haku and Meiko. Just in case anyone gets confused. Another thing, the lyrics were edited slightly to make it relate to Wizard101 more.
Thanks for reading and don't forget to review ^-^!

Ohohoho-
So, shall we start?
My name is Jordan, Jordan SoulStaff. I've lived in Avalon for all my life...and it's never been a very great place. At least, not in my memory. Some older people remember a great King and Queen who cared for their people above anything else. But in my life, there were always horrible rulers. The son of the great King and Queen took the throne and was ... very irresponsible with his crown. He ended up marrying a very greedy woman who wanted everything to herself. She passed these traits along to their only daughter. Rylee MythBloom. She was the current ruler...and she was in no way fit for it. Really, she was just a child with too much power. She cared nothing for the people so long as she got what she wanted.
I had always taken care of myself as my parents had died when I was very young during the famine that had killed the last King and Queen and left their irresponsible 14 year old daughter as ruler. Not that we were any better off with them. But one day I found another girl had made a shelter near where I had made my own. She introduced herself as Mindy Lotus, she had come from Mooshu to help care for any in Avalon who needed help. Mindy and I ended up becoming fast friends. She even tried to get me to open up to others and go to the more populated parts of our world. We ended up getting jobs together under a seamstress and we were happy.
There was once upon a time in another place
An evil world who no person dared to face
And the ruler was a conjurer so mean
A tiny little princess of only age fourteen!
But you couldn't be very happy with Rylee as the ruler. She was cruel and constantly shoved away any who tried to help our suffering world. She sat safely up in her castle where she couldn't be effected by the poverty and pain of our kingdom...and I really hated that. Why should she be able to sit happy and safe up in her castle when so many others suffered.
So many treasures littered her abode
Her loyal servant who's likeness surely showed
Josephine was what her mount was named
All the riches of the spiral is what she had claimed.
But Rylee often needed new dresses. I suppose she grew bored of her clothes easily. So every week her faithful servant Allen would come down to the seamstress' shop and request the newest dress for the "beloved" princess. Allen looked so much like Rylee it was disturbing. You'd think they were siblings, but the King and Queen only had one child. I guessed Rylee's power allowed her to find a boy with such striking resemblance to her out of vanity or something. Regardless of looks though, Allen was very kind. I couldn't help but notice though, the way he looked at Mindy. He had always been extra kind to my best friend leading me to believe perhaps the servant boy had the tiniest bit of a crush.
One day in particular Allen came into the shop looking very upset. The Princess required more dresses than he could possibly carry back all on his own so he wanted someone to come help him carry them back to the castle. It wasn't far, so of course I agreed to assist him. For the first time ever I got to see inside the castle and my anger only grew. She had so much while the people of her world were starving to death. I hated her.
If you're short on gold that's no fearful thing
Just take it from those who you dangle on a string
To those who feel that they want to bring me down
You'll just tidy up my robes.
When Allen brought me to the Princess's chambers to deliver the dresses this anger just grew stronger and stronger. She didn't deserve all this. Why didn't she share with the people? It just wasn't right! Was this where the tax money has been going? The young Princess had been raising the taxes quite a lot lately...It was unsurprising to find it just went to making her life easier.
The Princess sat in a cozy looking chair in the window. She turned when she heard Allen and I come in.
"Allen?" she paused when she saw me "Who is that?"
"Jordan a Pyromancer helping me deliver your dresses milady." Allen explained "It was just...too much for me to handle. I'm sorry. I needed help."
Rylee glared for a moment before slowly nodding.
"Alright." she muttered "So, what do you think of the castle Jordan?"
"I...I think the money could be put to better use." the words spilled from my mouth before I could stop them, Allen looked over at me his face plastered with terror and shock "People are starving yet your castle is beautiful and full of treasures."
Rylee turned to glare at me, there was some sort some of evil in her eyes. She opened her mouth slowly.
"Now, bow to me!"
Evil flowers
Steadily bloom
With an array of colourful doom
But the weeds who feel that they want to stay
They'll just die and and feed me the same anyway.
I had been taken from the castle my guards. I was in deep trouble for disrespecting the princess but Allen managed to talk the princess from doing anything drastic to me. I think he mostly did it to keep on Mindy's good side though.
After that day I swore something would be done to stop the princess. Even if it meant I had to do it myself.
The princess held a love for a boy
Of ice who wasn't very much her fan
But instead he chose his neighbor's girl
Of life who's eyes shone like a pearl.
But then...there was one day that completely changed everything. A boy named Kyle IceForge stopped into the shop to buy a dress for his sister. He was a ruler from a distant world. Everyone knew that the Princess had a bit of a soft spot for the boy. There were evil rumors that she had sent him a marriage proposal. But this didn't matter to him I guess. The moment he set eyes on Mindy you could see he had some sort of love for her. And unlike Allen he was willing to act on it. They began seeing each other and ... I was happy for her. If this went on Mindy could become a princess!
And that's exactly what was meant to happen.
After a few months of this, Kyle suggested that Mindy come home with him and perhaps marry him one day.
Mindy agreed.
The princess knew this and was filled with rage
She called the minister locked in her cage
And said in a soft voice to not be heard
"Make sure the life school is badly stirred."
But this was not to be. The very next morning the princess sent out a chilling proclamation.
"Every Theurgist girl under the age of 18 in Avalon must be killed. Anyone who gets in the way will be killed as well."
Kyle was desperate to get Mindy from Avalon before harm could come her way...as was I. But Mindy had gone for her morning walk. She could be in danger. So we both searched. We went everywhere she possibly could have gone. I hoped I would find my best friend safe and unharmed so that she could go live a wonderful happy life.
But this was not to be.
Kyle found me tears staining his cheeks and blood that was not his own staining his clothes.
Houses of the people were burned to the ground
So many voices would no longer make a sound
The people who had suffered so much pain
Didn't get pity from the one who'd slain.
"Oh, it's snack time."
After Mindy's death so many more were killed. Kyle blamed himself saying he was the reason for this proclamation. I blamed no one. No one but the Princess. If anyone was even suspected of housing a Theurgist their house was burned. Very few survived. It was horrible. Eventually Theurgists from Ravenwood came to try to stop it ... but none could stop the Queen's wrath. She sent out vicious minotaurs and powerful golems to destroy anybody who tried to come in her way.
The screams of her people dying met deafened ears. She just didn't care.
Evil flowers
Steadily bloom
With an array of bloodied doom
Even though the flower is so very refined
The thorns had driven it's garden to decline.
The plan began to formulate slowly in my mind. Kyle supported me through it all. He wanted it just as badly as I did. We needed to kill the Princess, to avenge Mindy.
We needed to start a revolution.
To defeat the princess was no easy task
But the people could no longer wear their mask
Like a flock of birds they were led by
A fire lady mercenary into the night.
It wasn't that hard to get a solid group together full of hatred of Rylee. We rode to the castle determined to kill the Princess and move onto a new age.
All the anger that had built up over the years
Now consumed them without any fears
But the army was battered from the life war
Their attacks were not much of a chore.
It wasn't even that hard to defeat the minions that had been defending the castle. Clearly they were tired from the war against the Theurgists. But that worked out well for us. Our spells managed to break through their defenses into the castle where are only struggle was to find the location of the Princess's chamber in this maze she called a home.
Once they fell the rebel wizards surrounded the court
The servants ran away as time was short
I saw Allen run past me as we ran through the castle in search of the Princess. If I didn't know any better I'd say there were tears running down his face. He was probably just frightened. We wouldn't hurt him though, he was just a servant. He hadn't done anything.
Little woman princess would not pose a fight
And she was finally captured in the night
Rylee sat in the same comfortable chair as she had when I had first met her.
"You are a lady of vice and disdain." I spat as fellow citizens when to capture her
"You're such a disrespectful man!"
If I didn't know any better I'd say her voice sounded a lower pitch than when I had first met her. Perhaps she was sick.
Not that I cared.
In fact I hoped she was.
Evil flowers
Steadily bloom
With an array of finest doom
How the paradise that she made for herself
Put this broken doll right back on the wooden shelf.
Finally the Princess was captured. We threw her into a cell to rot while we decided what to do with her. The one response was overwhelming: "Kill the Princess!"
And so..we planned her execution.
There was once upon a time in another place
An evil world who no person dared to face
And the ruler was a conjurer so mean
A tiny little princess of only age fourteen.
She was to be punished at three o' clock
When the tower bell resounded a tock
The person who was once royalty
Was bored in jail with no loyalty.
I went to go see her in jail. I said no words, I just watched her. She hid her face from me, maybe out of shame or something. Whatever it was I didn't care. I just wanted to see her suffer.
She had killed my friend.
For that she would pay.
At the time that eventually came
The tower bell to her sounded rather lame
Rylee was led up to the guillotine that had been placed in the center of the teleporters in the Caliburn. Distant bells rang from every way. Probably the people celebrating the downfall of their cruel leader.
"Any last words?"
Without looking to faces of the crowd
Said she with eyes in a shroud
I noticed someone step up to the very front with tears in their eyes. I think it was Allen. Perhaps, the Princess had meant more to him than I had thought. It didn't matter. It was all going to end now.
"Oh, it's snack time."
What pathetic last words.
Evil flowers
Steadily bloom
With an array of colourful doom
Now the people speak of her without a second thought
That daughter of evil had received what she sought.
Rylee was quickly forgotten.
Kyle became the new king of Avalon promising to rule the country fairly...which he did. The evils that had been done here were reversed and finally...Avalon became a happier place.
Of course, silly rumors popped up every once in a while. People saying it had been a trick and the Princess had survived somehow.
I dismissed them easily.
I had watched the Princess die before my eyes.
There was no possible way she was alive.
