I'm typing this in one of my classes right now, no one has noticed except the kid sitting next to me…its kind of weird. XP

"I don't get it, she looks just like Starfire, how could she have Starfire's face and have such a contrasting personality?" Said to herself as she and Nixie continued to run, they were still in the maze but far enough away from the Queen that they were safe-ish.
"Look I don't know who this Starfire is, I also don't know the meaning of contrasting, but I can guarantee you this, unless Starfire has a death wish for anything that breathes and has a fetish for beheadings, the Queen is nothing like her." Nixie said, running as fast as she could while pulling Raven behind her.
"Why did she want to kill me?" Raven asked, she couldn't see the exit from where they were, but she hoped they were getting close.
"Well usually it's for entertainment, or when people annoy her, or are late for a meeting with her, but she wasn't always like this. She used to be a fairly nice Queen, she took up the throne at a young age so she wasn't exactly sure how to rule, but she got the hang of it. In truth, the problem all started about four years into her rule, when she was seventeen." Nixie stopped and looked around, they were still in the maze, but she didn't see anyone following them.
"What happened when she was seventeen?" Raven asked.
Nixie didn't respond and instead went and sat over by a bush, motioning for Raven to sit next to her, in the corner two bushes formed so that no one would see them if they were just passing by. "Alright, well she had to take the throne at a fairly young age like a mentioned, thirteen to be precise. She was betrothed to Richard, a son of a noble family in town, he's the king now, but since he wasn't related to the royal family he wasn't allowed to make any laws. I digress, anyways Richard was a few years older than her, he was about sixteen I think when they got married.
"Of course at a young age she didn't really care if he didn't pay attention to her, I mean she was more focused on the fact that she was now in charge of the entire kingdom. By the age of seventeen she started to realize that she was tied to Richard for life, not only that but she had actually begun to fall in love with him, the only problem was he wasn't interested in her. Even though they were married, he was in love with this young girl in town, her family wasn't rich or important, and she was just…ordinary. Her name was Rachel or Radella or Frank or something…let's call her Ace.
"So Ace was very beautiful…come to think of it, she kind of looked like you…sorry I'm getting side tracked again, the only problem was she spent all day reading her books not even noticing the King was very interested in her, and then of course the Queen was very jealous of all the attention this commoner was getting from the King. So she had Ace executed, not that the King actually knew the Queen had ordered this to happen, she sent soldiers into Ace's house one night when she was sleeping and had her tortured and killed. After that, with Ace no longer in the way, King Richard finally began to notice Queen Kori, and the two of them have had a more or less happy marriage ever since. Of course now the Queen knows she can get rid of her problems by beheading them…so that's a problem. Now she beheads anyone she wants to whenever she feels like it." Nixie finished.
"How do you know all this?" Raven asked.
"Simple, I'm a cat, cats hear things. That and Queen Kori has tea with the Duchess every week or so and after all of this happened she told the Duchess about it." Nixie stood up and stretched before pulling Raven up. "C'mon, we gotta keep moving."
Raven nodded. 'This dream…is just getting worse and worse…I hope I can wake up soon.'
That be the chapter! Have a nice day! Please R&R!
