So I had this awesome idea of portraying Young Justice characters in a Robin Hood universe.
Only the prologue is a poem, of course, the rest of the story is "normal." And this was really hard to write, the words that rhyme... ugh.
Thanks to ProfessorYJ who has encouraged me to go through with this and who has been so enthusiastic. I love you, my doppelganger!
Enjoy!
Once upon a time
Existed a kingdom free of crime
Its king was righteous and a firm man
Went by the name of Bruce Wayne
The people have loved him oh so dearly
For the justice he handled clearly
But one day everything changed
When things had gotten rearranged
Twas the first December, that horrible day
Or at least that's what the people say
When a man of unknown heritage came
The throne he was about to claim
He marched into the chambers of His Majesty Wayne
And said "Surrender now, or your life shall end
This kingdom will now bow only to Slade!"
So Bruce with no choice had to step down
Thus he became the Gotham clown
For nobody knew what in chambers had happened
He was left on his own, abandoned
His loyal guards vanished into the air
And Bruce disappeared so no one would stare
Meanwhile, Slade had made himself king
And none of the peasants dared say a thing
He said: "I will be better, I will succeed
And I shall not stop for as long as I breathe
As for the heir, please meet my son
This name shall once be known
For he is as worthy of my throne
Please welcome my boy: Richard Grayson!"
I think you get the picture.
