Remember the good days

After the unlikely duo a ice qitch and a half demon survived the last three months, they formed a powerful friendship, and Simone sure would need it with her instabil state of mind, she would often found herself getting angry at things she shouldn´t, she doesn´t know if she can keep her promises to Marshall.

Marshall was of course aware of the change his friend was going through, both mentally and physically, her hair got longer and her skin colder. He did not really understand, they were currently walking around the streets as he looked up at the older woman.

"Simone c-can I ask something?" The demon asked, not knwoing how to ask carefully to not hurt her feelings.

Simone took a breath as she looked down, giving him a kind smile "Yes Marshie what is it?" She asked in a calm voice

Marshall hesitated before frowning as he spoke quietly not much louder than a whisper "W-Why are you keep changing y-your skin and hair is always changing" The boy then pointed at the golden tiara that was attached to her belt "Has it something to do with that thing?" Marshall asked.

Simone frowned, how could she explain that a magic tiara cursed her and ruined her life, that this thing ruined her life and took away Betty her beloved fiancee, she took a deep breath "You are right Marshall, it has something to do with it, this thing the tiara is very powerful and extremely dangerous and it gave me magic in exchange for sanity" She explained sadly, Marshall just looked at her and kept his frown "I-I understand..." The black haired replied dryly, he did not really but Simone could understand, before they could react a few mutants at least eleven were starting to run towards them, she did not hesitated a second as she got infront of Marshall,putting on the golden tiara, her hands glowing blue and her hair getting a few inches longer as she engulfed the cold and her own madness.

Simone glared "GET AWAY FROM US!" She yelled in a raspy voice, blasting a powerful yet precise blast at them, taking out eight of the mutants as she stepped back, ensuring that Marshall was still there ´Keep it together!` She reminded herself as she blasted away the rest of them with a wave of snow, she then got on her knees, pushing the tiara of her head as she panted heavily, tears running down her cheek and turning into ice before they hit the ground as she hugged Marshall tightly, sighing as she smiled kindly at him "We are save now..." She whispered as she got up, taking his hand.

Marshall Lee just looked horrified, the strange mutants were not what scared him, it was Simone, seeing his friend going so mad with rage and sadness and then killing all of the monsters with ease was sure a sight he would most likely never forget. But at least they were save and he know that Simone his best friend needs him now more than ever.

They decided to use a old abandoned car as a shelter as they laid down, Simone looked up the ceiling as she closed her eyes, she kept sure that Marshall was covered in a blanket as she closed her eyes as she decided to sleep.

One year after

Simone was taking care of Marshall Lee like he is her son, and he sees her as a mother figure, she continued to change and now the tiara was directly talking to her, and she couldn´t hate it more, it always tells her to do something really evil and to focus on herself that she should get rid of that pathetic demo, Simone always felt her blood boil when it did even though she know that´s what this thing wants.

Sometimes it tries to talk to her in a female, gentle voice that she should put on the tiara and that they shared a bound more powerful than anything. Simone would have none of it it´s merely a tool for survival for her. She however noticed that her powers became more and more powerful and she also noticed some effects even when not wearing the crown like weather manipulation.

Today was really a bad weather it was thundering and raining, Marshall and her were in their shelder as the witch told him old stories of her many travels and adventures having always something to keep the boy entertained. However after a few minutes a few mutants were walking towards the car

"S-Simone those things..." he whispered and she did not hesitate as she grabbed the tiara and walked out of the car, putting on the golden headpiece as power flew through her veins like blood as she impaled a few of them with ice spikes, she kicked the last of them to the ground and killed it by freezing it, however going out was not a smart idea since they were in a destroyed forest and she was taller than the car `Oh Glob!´ She thought as a lightingbolt hit her straight from above, but instead of killing her the crown seemed to must of took the energy as she without thinking fired the lightingbolt she was just hit with back into the sky, she panted as she fell to her knees by the knockback of that action `Very well my Queen, you see I not only contain the powers of ice and snow, if you would put me on permanently you would be even more powerful´ It whispered and it sounded pretty convincing but she was smarter, she took it off as she got back into the car.

Marshall Lee frowned as he looked at the woman "What happened Simone are you alright?" He asked quietly as she spoke in a gentle voice

"Don´t worry we are save now..." She whispered as she pulled him into a hug, she sighed quietly as she looked out of the window

"Look the weather is getting better, we have to stuck up on supplies..." Explained the woman as she grabbed her backpack, knowing this would most likely not the last time she had to use the tiara.
