Queen of Ice
Chapter One
"Mother, you can't truly expect me to stay here forever, can you?" The girl asked.
"Of course I can. You're our Princess. Where do you think you would go? Venus? Mars? Earth?" Her mother asked somberly.
"Where else but Earth? It has wonders that the people of Pluto never dreamed of! Maybe I could even find a suitable Vampire to stay with." The Princess replied.
"You aren't serious are you?"
"Of course I am."
"Very well, off with you. But you'll be back." The mother stated.
A mumbled, "That's what you think," the Princess said, "Thank you with all my heart mother, Queen and Dark Mistress of Pluto."
"Be gone with you now, so you can come all the sooner back to us. Your people need you." The Queen said, obviously dismissing the girl without thought.
A tall, elegant girl walked out with the gait of a human, though she was far from human. As she walked her slender, pointed ears began to shrink and to round off, her slanted eyes leveling, her height shrinking, and her sharp features edging back. By the time the girl stepped out of the Ice Palace, she was unquestionably human.
-
In an open prairie two smooth-skinned creatures were battling. In the midst of the fight, a slim girl in her late teens, early twenties stepped between the two creatures. A look of bizarre astonishment crossed the girl's face as she saw where she had arrived. By this time the creatures had stopped they battle to look at the intruder. With a single look from the girl the creatures crawled away, their long tales between their legs.
The only sound that could be heard was the girl saying, "Hmmm, I don't think this is where I wanted."
Then there was a flash of lavender light, and all was left was a thin shell of purple ice.
-
In a land covered only in ice, dominated by huge mammals, a young girl not of that time appeared out of nowhere, bemused and confused. Near her hunters were attempting to trap a mammoth creature covered in coarse hair. The girl, apprehensive at first, made up her mind to intervene.
"Sorry guys, no dinner today." With a quick swish of her hand the hunters were lifted twenty feet off the ground with the weapons far beneath them, giving the mammoth creature time to leave the hunters for good.
With a flash of quick, lavender light, the girl disappeared leaving the hunters bewildered as to how to get down. Within thirty seconds, their thoughts were answered when they suddenly hit the ground, breaking their beloved spears.
-
The prince watched as the whipping boy paid for his own disturbing actions. He had ran out of the well protected castle into the streets of Birmingham, knowing that upon his return the beloved whipping boy would pay.
While he was watching, however, a girl appeared out of nowhere, at first dismissive, then slowly anger showing on her face. The girl lifted her hand, causing the whip to fly from the punisher's hand and into the air. It then, as if by instinct, began to whip the young prince. He immediately began to cry.
"That'll teach you to punish undeserving people."
Turning to the injured boy she asked, "Are you alright?"
He nodded.
"Good, then I suggest you get away from here."
Upon hearing the boy leave, she turned around, raised her hand and motioned for the whip to stop its torture.
Then, with a flash of lavender light, she was gone. All that remained was that same purple ice.
-
In a dark alley emerged a girl, looking lost but not at all frightened. She wandered around aimlessly, looking for something one normally could not see. There was a quick blur ahead of her, and she smiled, knowing she had finally arrived to her destined place.
"Finally. Time travel sure isn't what it cracked up to be."
Turning, she headed to the nearest Inn she could find. There she would style herself up in this new time. Then her adventure would begin.
