Chapter 2:

Behind the tree, Andrews slapped his forehead almost wincing from the pain

Daria and the children walked off sad "Sorry everyone.." she kicked the dirt and ran off the other way where Rose was going.

Zelda "That delightful little idiot.." she walked back to the kitchen she said about Thomas and they all disappeared.

Back at his lair Ratigan saw the whole thing in the mirror and laughed hard "Perhaps your little prince isn't what you were expecting, was it my dear?" he laughed until the image disappeared, he walked to his thugs who laughed along with him.

"What a fool Sir" Arthur laughed and nudged Bill who laughed in return

Ratigan changed his happy mood quickly "Yes, she deserves a King, not a pipsqueak like Thomas…" he went to his desk and picked up a picture of his mother "I have made a fool out of myself mother, all my life has been an entire disappointment.. you were right."

"Um sir?" Bill asked "what did she do exactly?"

"All my life I've been told I would never amount to anything.. she raised me to be hateful, that was the only way to get ahead and when I want something.. To do anything to get it.." he pressed his cigarette into the ashtray. Giving his thugs the chills.

He continued and laughed manically " But you see mother! I am successful! I became closer than you would have EVER been!" he picked up the picture and threw it hard to his bookcase. At least three dusty books fell out, revealing the back of the bookcase. A blue light appeared between the crack, alerting the attention of him.

"What?.." He walked slowly to the bookcase ripping apart the extra wood, the light became stronger when he finally removed the last piece. In his hands was a large book, it glowed in his hands as he stood there with his mouth wide open.

"What is it boss?" Fidget asked as he walked past him. Ratigan was beginning to talk to himself.

"All these years.." he chuckled as he went through the book ignoring their questions Bill pushed Arthur who gulped "Um sir? What do you got there.."

He turned around with a wicked smile on his face "This is the exact thing to get me on the throne again.. with a loving queen by my side.." they didn't answer or compliment him when he rolled his eyes "Its my mother's spell book you idiots!" he screamed causing them to cower "I remember using magic when I was young.." he mumbled through the pages when he finally exclaimed with sheer glee "Ah. Here it is.. true love spells.."

BACK AT THE CASTLE

Rose walked off with her head down, she messed with her heart necklace when she heard footsteps behind her. She looked down at the little red furred mouse "Hey Daria.. I don't really want to play dolls right now."

She huffed out of breath "Not everything is dolls Rosalina.. lets go to my room"

In Daria's room everything is pink, from her canopy to her walls is different shades of pink. It would seem like a headache to anyone but both of them didn't mind. Both her and Rose sat at her little table and sipped imaginary tea from little pink cups. "More tea Princess?"

She slightly smiled "No thanks Daria.." she sighed and put the cup down, feeling a little paw on her hand "I understand."

That remark made her laugh "Do you now?"

"Tom is just nervous, he really does love you.."

Rose couldn't believe the mature words coming out of a six year old mouse "And I love him.."

"Zelda says that when a boy likes you.. he gets nervous and acts like a dummy.."

Rose crossed her arms and got up "That eves dropping is going to get you in trouble-"

"I know I know! But believe me, just give it time Rose! He will get smarter!" she finished her sentence when there was a knock on the door "hello ladies! Daria may I speak to Rose for a while?" Andrews asked while his head peeked out the door.

"Thank you Daria." She kissed the little mouse on the head and left shutting the door.

"Come take a walk with me Rose." They walked through the castle until they ended up outside in the garden. "I have something to tell you.. since you are the ONLY heir to the throne," I realize that the kingdom is without a queen.." she stopped walking " And I do believe you are ready to take on this responsibility…"

She stuttered "Y-You don't mean.."

"You will finally be coronated as Queen of Toyland, Now, we have-"

"NO WAY! IM GONNA BE QUEEN OH MY GOSH! THIS IS GONNA BE AWESOME!" she squeezed Andrews in a loving embrace and let go. She composed herself and took in a deep breath "Sounds fun.."

"Now your highness, we must hold a coronation ball in your honor. We must make preperations for next week, I'll have Zelda and Tom go with you to town to find a coronation gown. You know what? We should actually go next week to prepare-" Rose cut him off holding her hands on his shoulders "Andrews, do you think I can handle it.."

He touched her hand "My dear, if you are capable of bringing down a miserable Rat like Ratigan, I think you are capable of ruling a kingdom."

She sat down at the stone bench "I've only known about this place for a year, what if no one respects me as a queen, I don't even know how to rule a kingdom."

"That's why you have me.." He held her chin up "Trust me if I didn't believe you were ready, I wouldn't have talked to you today." She remained silent "Your parents would have been so proud of the young woman you have become." He smiled and she looked up curiously

"What were they like?"

He sighed and sat next to her "They took me in when I was just a boy, I was a page boy for a while. Your father King Derek thought I was smarter than a job like that. He tutored me and let me work for him as well… they were very kind to me, and took me in like family. Queen Laura was kind, gentle, and firey. Kind of like you are." Both of them laughed "She knew what she wanted and the King always was one step ahead of her." He paused "on the day the castle was attacked, they gave you to me to take care of. The queen gave me that necklace" he pointed at her necklace "As a way for you to remember them.." she looked away clutching the necklace as he continued "They loved you more than any parent could, no love could be stronger as it could be for you.."

Rose hugged the mouse hard for a long time "thank you Andrews."

He patted her hand "No problem your highness.."
