I flew through the eternal darkness, feeling the wind through my feathers, rustling them from their state of perfection. I knew that such a girl as the beauty I obsessed over, the mortal goddess I was ensnared by, would never wish away her charges, much less fall in love with me during any rescue attempts… Yet, I couldn't force myself to stop hoping. In the deepest, darkest corner of my heart, I hoped that she could love me, as I loved her, that she could let me rule her heart as she ruled mine. Everyday in the park however, she crushed my hopes, only to have them rise again when she recited the story endlessly…

It's only forever, not long at all

I contemplated this as I flew, knowing that I would forever live without her love, without her beside me.

Don't tell me truth hurts, little girl

'Cause it hurts like hell

The cold, hard truth was that I was her villain, her scoundrel, her eternal opponent. She would fall in love with the dashing Prince Charming, who swept her off her feet. I was not her Prince Charming, and I never would be. As the realization hit me, I landed in the park, just in time to hear her say the dreaded words for what seemed to be the millionth time.

"You have no power over me"

I watched the way her eyes lit up as she completed the speech that meant my doom, the way her lips curved into a triumphant smile. Behind her the clock tower struck seven, and she whirled around in a panic. The raw pain from those simple six words consumed me as she ran, and my magic created a storm to match my mood. The thunder was loud, and the lightening was bright. The rain was as sharp as the blade that Sarah dug into my heart, and chilled innocent bystanders to the bone.


This is my first fanfic, but don't go easy on me! I want to know the honest truth... R&R please!
