Mira couldn't believe her situation had gotten worse. The monster had ripped her cage open and she thought she was about to get free, or be eaten. Either way she was pretty sure it would be over soon.

She was ready to try and make her escape when it got worse. Instead of eating her, or ripping her apart as she had expected, rather it reached in and bent the metal cage around her neck and down to her waist forming a handle but leaving her arms and legs free. She was still unable to ghost out of it however, meaning when the monster picked her up and began carrying her like a lunch box, all she could do was feel even more humiliated.

Mira knew why she was here. She knew square where to lay the blame.

Being swung back and forth, Mira promised herself she'd never ride another roller coaster again. She tried to see where she was being taken. Ahead, she could see a cave set into the side of the snowy mountain. The monster walked straight into it. The cave opened up into a mostly dimly lit chasm. There were monsters milling around, guarding the back of the cave where it was more brightly lit. She could see what looked like the master suite from one of the villas set up, a dark figure in the bath area.

Mira was tossed on the ground by her captor, it then placed it's hand down over her, forcing her to kneel like it was doing.

"Your grace, I have brought you an assistant. If it is not up to your standards, we can dispose of it."

"No walter, I'm sure you have done well." A familiar feminine voice called out."Send it to me, that I may inspect it's worthiness."

Mira was pushed in the direction of the voice, towards the makeshift suites bathroom. Mira cautiously rounded the unsure corner uncertain of what hideous monster she would find, shocked by what she saw.

"Kelly?!"

Mira was shocked to see the same woman she had cursed not ten minutes before. There she sat on the back of the toilet, wearing a white summer dress that came down to her knees. Mira had to admit to herself that she could see why buzz thought she was pretty, thinking back to all the times Buzz had talked about her over dinner, or on a long mission. Clutching to her chest Mira could see one of Buzz's antique guns, a .45 if she remembered right, and an ornate knife. Her face was stoic and determined, but it wasn't hard to see the glisten of where the tears had fallen not long before.

"I'm so glad to see you! 'Cept for Buzz, your the face I wanted to see the most! Buzz is always telling me about how you pull off a mission at the last moment."

Mira was a bit taken back. The whole trip it seemed like she had gone out of her way to get Buzz's attention on herself, and especially off Mira

"Yeah, umm You okay?" Mira asked.

"Yeah I was just scared"

"Why?"

Kelly looked up at Mira with her deep brown eyes. Mira could see fear there, but more than just the immediate fear. It was fear that had been there along time. One that only got there when someone had a secret, one that someone would do anything to keep.

"Mira, I-" She managed to catch herself before she blurted it all out.

"They think I'm a queen or something."

Mira leaned in, sensing there was more to this than she was hearing.

"Are you?" Mira asked.

"No, Yes, I mean, Oh hell I don't know what I mean anymore Mira. It's such a long story."

Mira leaned back

"Well Kelly, it looks like we have the time now."

Kelly wiped her eyes and sat up.

"Well you should know I wasn't always this girly girl you see before you. I learned a lot of things over the years, before Uncle Zurg made me Queen of the Grubs, my life was very different...
