Drew had *a* (metaphorical) k_i_n_g_d_o_m at her lipstick $tained (metaphorical) fingertips.
She, after all, was THE QUEEN.
And (of course) she has everyone wrapped around her wrist like a (metaphorical) bracelet.
She had an ARMY ready at the snap of her fingers,
(Metaphorical, of course)
Minions at command within a SiNgLe push of the littlemetaphorical button,
aNd SERVANTS at he r)i)n)g) of a &bell& ready to serve.
-BUT-
then came littleprettypiedpiper
And with a tweet from the -flute-
_and a $ingle note came out of that stupidlittlepipe_
Her kingdom was lost.
The (metaphorical) SERVANTS
*her siblings*
The (metaphorical) Minions
*the campers*
And the (metaphorical) ARMY
(*The boys, who also did well as her suitors, too. Espesially handsome the Prince of Jupiter. And Leo. She liked Leo.*)
GONE.
All because of a single COMMAND series of shrill squeaks (if THE QUEEN even dared call it a song) from the 'perfect little piper'.
And instead, they follow the little ^PIED PIPER^
Down towards the (metaphorical) river-
(those little traitorous rats, she thought)
-AND into (the metaphorical) Koppenberg Mountain, the little feet beating to the charm-speaking music.
Then swallowed up into the (again, metaphorical) muddy ground.
But she was the _*q*u*e*e*n*_ after all,
Down on her knees picking up the remains of her broken (metaphorical) kingdom.
And little-piper-princess-perfect was a beggar leading other innocent children to their little metaphorical deaths.
(Except for Leo, the 'lame boy'. She guessed poor Prince would have to dig himself out instead.)
And THE QUEEN would not give up on the feud with the Pied Piper of the Aphrodite Cabin.
(At least, not until she was DICTATOR once again.)
