Chapter 2:
Script Rewrite: Escape on the Prima Vista!
(Alexandria Castle- Courtyard) ---- (Ron's POV)
After our little rooftop run among the city, Vivi, Puck, and I make it inside the castle walls by nightfall. I heard that no one relies on men in Alexandria, which explain only ten male Knights of Pluto; the Captain having some cheap, rusty armor who yells a lot. And the rest of the Queen's army is female soldiers with a General who shows no mercy in battle, scary! Yet having this almighty army at your side, it can't prevent a shy, young black mage, a rat kid with a rude personality, and a man who got casted off into this world; pathetic if you ask me.
"Hey, Vivi." I turned to the black mage. "The guys performing the play are called Tantalus, correct?"
"Yeah, the man in the ticket booth told me before we left." Vivi responded. "Why?"
"Just need to know something." I said.
'Which means they're here to get Garnet." I thought, remembering the storyline.
The first thing I notice while trying get a good view of the stage, was that there were two moons, a blue one and a red one. I myself thought that was incredible, knowing other planets with more than one moon have no life on them!
"Over here!" Puck whispered to me and Vivi behind a back row of nobles, waving his hands.
Vivi and Puck may have had the luxury of running through the darkness undetected due to their short height, but I had to crouch and roll around the entire time when we snuck past rows of occupied chairs. We made our way to where Puck was and looked over the nobles to view the airship that housed the play that was starting: "I want to be Your Canary." Everyone of the audience clapped so Vivi, Puck, and I followed suit. I also took the chance of looking behind me at the balcony, where the royal throne was, to see if Princess Garnet was there. But I only caught sight of a fat, blue, and no question, an ugly face of the Queen Brahne, the Queen of Alexandria. I turned back around with a horrified look on my face, Vivi noticed.
"Ron, what's the matter?" Vivi whispered to me.
"You don't wanna know." I answered back to him.
Vivi nodded then returned to look at the stage, which had its lights turned out for a few seconds before it erupted into fanfare and fireworks from the orchestra. I can see some people stood up cheering and dancing a bit, I turned back around and saw Brahne dancing around the balcony. Vivi and Puck were also astounded by the display but, were able to contain their excitement, which seemed strange to me, kids their age would be happy about this, especially my baby brother.
After the fireworks and music died down, the platform which carried the orchestra lifted up, and revealed the actual stage where the performers would come from. Among the red curtains, a man dressed in king's robes appeared. He sported a pair of air goggled over his eyes, a beard and mustache, and two donkey ears that sprouted from the top of his head.
'Baku!' I thought, my mouth forming a small smirk.
"Ladies and Gentlemen!" Baku spoke addressing the audience. "Tonight's performance is a story that takes place long, long ago. Our heroine, Princess Cornelia, is torn from her lover, Marcus. She attempts to flee the castle, only to be captured by her father, King Leo. When our story begins, Marcus, having heard of this, crosses swords with the king. And now, Your Royal Majesty, Queen Brahne, Your Highness, Princess Garnet... ...noble ladies
and lords, and our rooftop viewers, Tantalus proudly presents 'I want to Be Your Canary'!
******************************************************************************************************
(Third person POV) -------- (Behind the curtains)
"Bereft of father! Bereft of father! Marcus! Thou has lost even thy love!" A red-haired man with an outfit comprised of belts, plus another around his eyes, speaking in a Shakespearean while drawing his sword.
"Fortune hath escap'd thee! For what end shalt thou live?" A short, fat man wearing an iron hat, a brown, leather vest and shorts, and leather shoes speaking Shakespearean next, brought out a hammer.
"For the sake of our friends…" The last one spoke and stood up from kneeling position; he was a blonde man, wearing a blue vest with a white shirt underneath, blue pants, armlets with gray gloves and boots, and he had a tail! "Let us bury our steal in the heart of the wretched King Leo! Blank, Cinna are you with me?"
"Aye, Zidane!" Both his comrades shouted in agreement as they rushed out to the stage.
************************************************************************************************************
(Out to the stage...) --- (3rd POV)
The three men rushed out to the stage, to the excitement of the audience, but to the dismay of King Leo, who was the man that introduced the start of the play, and his two guards: mask-wearing soldiers with metal clamps for hands. Opposing them, along with Zidane's group, was a swordsman like Blank. He wore a red bandana that covered his face from the eyes up, a blue vest with a leather strap across it, blue shorts, black armlets, and brown shoes.
"Marcus, we shall back thee, kinsman!" Blank addressed his fellow swordsman.
"Pray my comrades, sheathe thy swords! This villain is mine alone!" Marcus protested.
"Nay, kinsman!" Cinna argued. "For I, too, have lost a brother to this fiend!"
"What ho? Out, vermin! Away!" King Leo commanded readying his sword. "Thou darest bare thy sword before the king!? All who stand in my way will be crush'd!"
"Treacherous Leo, my kinsman's suffering shall not be in vain! Zidane shouted in defiance. "For I shall instruct thee in his incomparable pain!"
"Grr….CHARGE!!!!!" King Leo and soldiers charged into battle.
"ATTACK!!!" Zidane led his friends into the fray.

(Battle Start, Play 'Feel My Blade'- Final Fantasy IX)
(Ron's POV)

"Medeo!" I heard Zidane shout, as I looked over the row of the nobles to see him summon a giant meteor which stopped King Leo's party from advancing towards his.
'That meteor was a fake!' I thought, looking at the pieces scattered across the stage. 'But I guess the actors had to make the battle more interesting by having magic incorporated in the play. Also explains the SFX on the game battle menu.'
Yet, the audience especially Vivi and Puck were amazed by the display.
"Wow!" Puck shouted, looking at Vivi. "That meteor thing was awesome!"
"I know!" Vivi said excitingly as Puck. "Wish I could do that.."
After the 'meteor's' impact, Marcus and Blank saw their chance to take out the two guards who were stunned.
*Slash* *Slash*
In two strikes, both guards fell to their 'death', with Marcus and Blank standing over them, the crowd went wild. Even I was amazed, how they used the cover of Zidane's attack to launch a perfect sneak attack.
Cinna also ran through a blind side of King Leo's, and got in some lucky blows with his hammer; who knew a hammer could do so much a sword can't?
Unfortunately, it was pissing off the King as he raised his sword and yelled, "Taste steel, you hack!" as he went to strike down the man.
Cinna did all he could to duck and dodge Leo's onslaughts, but in one precise strike from the King, the hammer was swatted out of Cinna's hand off stage. As Cinna, went to retrieve his weapon while it was in mid-air, King Leo wasted no time in advancing to kill his enemy.
"Cinna, look out!" Marcus shouted to his comrade. The audience also added in there shouts of encouragement to Cinna, saying things like: "Watch out, Cinna!" or "Please don't die!"
*Slash* *Urrgghhh…*
It all fell on deaf ears, as Cinna fell to his own tragic 'death.' Some of the viewers started crying over it, including Queen Brahne who was in a fit of her own tears.
"Oh, man! He got 'em!" Puck said as he snapped his fingers in anger.
Vivi was wiping his eyes filled with tears.
Even I showed some sorrow, even though witnessing deaths on the game, it's nothing compared to actually seeing the death, even if it's a staged one.
Zidane, in a fit of rage, started flailing his daggers around so much even Leo couldn't read his moves. Little did he know, it was all a ploy as Marcus came in and struck the King on his side.
(End music)
King Leo ended up trying to retreat, climbing the stairs to the top of the stage castle's archway. "Arrg... Grr... Thou hast not seen the last of me, Marcus!" He shouted as he walked off stage.
"Come back here, Leo!" Zidane shouted as he gave chase…
Only to be blocked by Blank.
"Out of the way, Blank!" He yelled his former comrade. He slashed at Blank, only for the swordsman to evade by jumping onto the higher steps. "We have to stop him, while he's down and get revenge for Cinna!"
Blank shunned it all away. "Consider this, Zidane!" He informed Zidane. "If Prince Schneider were to marry Princess Cornelia, peace would reign over both their kingdoms! We can end this just by walking away!"
"'Tis foolishness!" Zidane protested. "If all were so easy, why, none would suffer in this world!"
I smiled at the scene beginning to unfold. 'The big sword fight scene!'
(Play Vamo Alla Flameco)
"Come on, guys!" Puck shouted in enthusiasm "Let's get up front for this!"
He then rushed to the part of the audience area, where it was separated by red ropes.
"Come on, Vivi!" I said. "This is going to get good."
"Ok!" Vivi was excited about this as I was.
As soon as we reached where Puck was, Blank and Zidane arrived there to perform the fight scene. Although, it was going to be different since Zidane is using his daggers instead of a sword. As the two squared off….
"En garde!" Blank shouted.
"Expect no quarter from me!" Zidane returned.
Zidane started off with a double slice of his daggers, both of which Blank dodged by jumping over then stepping back. He retaliated by slashing over Zidane's head, in which the tailed warrior ducked under then flipped over backwards to avoid another. The audience was impressed by Zidane's flip, but what really won them over was when both Blank and Zidane crossed their weapons in a stand off. The action continued over another two minutes before…
"We shall finish this later!" Blank said, sheathing his sword while running into the castle.
"Come back here, traitor!" Zidane said giving chase.
Whlie they were running off stage, the crowd showered them with silver coins, both of which collected while running.
One of the coins, landed near me and I saw what it was: Gil.
Zidane came by, picked it up, caught a glimpse of my face and then did a double-take. He had a look that said: 'I know you from somewhere!"
"Uh…hi.." I said awkwardly, having a confused look on my face.
He was about to respond until….
"Hey, Zidane! Get over here!" Blank's voice brought him out of the conversation before it really got into it, then ran off after Blank.
(End music)
After he left I picked spare coins which 'happened' to be near me and put them in my pocket, I decided to count them later.
I felt a tug on my shirt, and look to see Vivi was doing that.
"Did he know you?" He asked me.
"Yeah, he sure looked like he recognized you, Ron!" Puck added.
"I… don't know." I said hesitantly.
'This is impossible!' I thought in shock. 'How does he know me when I haven't he met him face-to-face!'
*******************************************************************************************************
(Third POV) (Inside the castle)
"Man that was too easy!" Blank said, after walking out of the armory with Zidane trailing him. Both of them had snuck into the castle armory, beat up two guards, stripped of their armor and put them on to disguise themselves as knights of Alexandria.
"Yeah, it was.." Zidane said while pondering something, Blank immediately noticed.
"Alright dude." He began "You been acting this way as soon as you came in here, what going on, we got a job to do?"
"Did you see a guy with two kids near our fight?" Zidane asked.
"Yeah, why?" Blank asked.
"Something seemed familiar about him, like I've met him before." He pondered.
"Whatever, man! Come on we gotta do this, the next scene already started!" Blank said peering out to the stage.
"Oh, right!" Zidane slapped his forehead. "Okay, I got the sleeping weed for the Princess." He said pulling out a light-green plant.
"And I've got the special surprise for our 'lovely' Queen, he he!" He laughed, then squirmed a bit. "Damn oglops.."
"Come on, the royal seats are upstairs." Zidane said running up the stairs with Blank following.
As soon as Zidane reached the top, a young woman wearing a white robe, with the hood covering her face appeared from the doors opposite the royal seats.
'That's a funny looking out she's wearing' He thought assessing the outfit.
"Umm..would you kindly let me pass?" She asked in a polite tone.
"Uh…sure." Zidane said, standing to the side.
She bowed slightly before walking again, then Zidane blocked her path again.
"Wait, have we met before?" He asked out of the blue.
"No, I do not know you.." She responded.
'Whoa, first that guy back there, now this girl.' He thought while looking over the woman.
"Maybe you're right." He pondered. "I wouldn't let someone as pretty as you get away. Say, you wouldn't…."
"Hey, what's going on, Zidane?" Blank interrupted, causing the girl to panic.
"I…I must go!" The girl ran past both men while knocking them over in the process.
Zidane recovered quickly, and ran to Blank.
"Get up, Blank, that was the princess!" He urged him.
"Are you sure?" Blank looked shocked as didn't realized it beforehand.
"Yeah, come on!" Zidane yelled giving chase to the princess, with Blank following after.
********************************************************************************************************************
(Thirty minutes later, back at the stage) (Ron's POV)
*********************************************************************************************************************
I was really getting into the play, and other things! First, I saw Garnet and Zidane swinging across the castle to the stage, then Steiner, who remember having the rusty armor, tried to follow them, but got out range into one of the airships propeller houses. I remembered there was a part where Marcus snuck into Princess Cornelia's bed chamber. Marcus almost made it until more of King Leo's guards reached him before he could climb up the balcony. He fought off as long as he could, but the numbers game caught up with him. The audience was devastated when that scene played out, including Vivi. Puck wasn't as shocked as everyone was, in fact he was snickering a bit. The nobles act like they never seen an actual play before, and they have money!
Now the scene goes to when King Leo is out on his throne pondering something.
"Tonight, I shall finally see my daughter Princess Cornelia betroth'd to Prince Schneider!" King Leo said to himself. "And then Prince Schnieder and
his kingdom will be mine! Gwahahahaha!"
And let me tell you, he has a silly laugh.
Just then, two guards, like the ones in the opening fight appeared. I notice they were the same actors from the opening fight but were passing themselves off as two new guys. And they had Marcus restrained and every one in the audience gasped.
"Your Majesty!" One of the guards spoke.
"We have caught an intruder!" The other guard finished.
King Leo walked over to Marcus and looked him in the eye. "Why, my poor Marcus!" He addressed Marcus in a fake, sorrowful tone. "Hark, lad. No matter how much thou dost treasure Cornelia... ...no matter how deeply she might believe she doth love thee... ...never shall I see her marry a peasant such as thee! When yon bell strikes three... Under the axe thou shall be!"
*BONG!*
*BONG!*
*BONG!*
"Furthermore…." King began, but was interrupted by Zidane and Garnet coming out of the stage trap door unexpected. They started whispering to Leo was surprised as well; I knew what was being said already. Then, I see Steiner coming out of another trap door looking confused as if that was news to me.
Steiner: "Ho? What's all this?"
I could barely hold my laughter since he was just standing there in front of the audience, acting like a fool.
Marcus finally breaks free of the guards and runs over to Garnet.
"Cornelia!" Marcus says sounding overjoyed to see her.
There was a short pause before Garnet spoke.
"Oh, Marcus!" She says overjoyed as well.
Another short pause…..
Then Garnet and Marcus embrace each other.
"Oh, Marcus! I missed you so!" Garnet puts on an impressive display acting as Cornelia. "I wish never to leave thy side. Prithee, lead me from this place!"
Zidane walks over to King Leo and says, "See, King Leo? Thou should'st give them thy blessing!"
King Leo erupts in anger, "Never! Never leave his side, thou sayest? Foolish banter! I'll not allow it! Cornelia shall marry none other than this man--Prince Schnieder!" He places a hand on Steiner's shoulder. "Is that not so, Prince Schnieder?"
Steiner looks horrified beyond belief and points to himself "M-Marry the princess? Me!?"
Then that's when I finally gave in to laughter, Vivi and Puck looked at me confusingly before turning back to the play.
"Aye! And this traitorous crew, I will put to death!" Leo commands as his guards get ready.
But Zidane and Marcus beat them to the punch, quite literally I might add.
One of them shouts, "Too many of them!"
The other says, "Run away!"
And both run backstage like scolded dogs.
"Pray, sweet daughter, come home to the castle with me." Leo says to Garnet.
Garnet shakes her head responding, "Nay, Father! I shan't return!"
King Leo looks distraught now, "Cornelia... Trouble me no more. This wedding is for thine own welfare. Be mindful of that."
"Not if I can help it!!!" Marcus draws his sword. "Now is my moment of vengeance! For my parents, and for my love, Cornelia... I shall cut thee down!"
He charges in expecting to strike the King…..only to 'stab' Garnet instead.
*Ngh!*
"No... Cornelia!!!" Marcus steps back in horror at the damage he has done to his love.
"Mar...cus, forgive me. I still love my father..." She gasps out looking over to Marcus.
"Princess!"
"Cornelia!"
Leo kneels down holding his daughter with Steiner down on his knees crying.
'Doesn't he get this a PLAY!' I thought shaking my head.
Garnet reaches out to Leo "Prithee, forgive my selfishness, Father, and spare my sweet Marcus..."
Her hand drops down as she plays dead.
"What have I done!?" Marcus looks down in sorrow. "Am I never to hear her loving voice again!? Am I cursed never again to feel her soft touch!? O, cruel fate! Thou hast robbed me of all I treasure!"
"Marcus, NO!"
But it was too late; Marcus 'stabs himself, to his 'death.
************************************************************************************************************
(In the audience) (Ron's POV)
Puck dances a bit saying "Wow, what a show!"
Vivi wipes his eyes full of tears, "Yeah, so sad..."
I place a hand on Vivi's shoulder telling him, "It wouldn't be tragedy without a sad ending, Vivi. Though I have to say, this is some great acting!"
"I'm glad we climbed all the way over here. How 'bout you guys, huh?" Puck looks over to the side seeing two knights running towards us. "Uh-oh! Look out!"
Vivi and I see the two knights as well and we run after Puck, who already has a head start.
We start to run in circles to confuse, but to no avail, suddenly Vivi trips on the red carpet where the Zidane's and Blank's fight scene took place.
"Vivi, you alright?" I run back to pick him up.
"Y-Yeah, t-thank you, Ron." He says shakily, getting up.
"Fools! I'm outta here!" Puck yells at us, while running to who knows where.
"Stinkin' rat!" I yell back. "Come on, Vivi!" We ran towards the stage where the sad scene is still taking place with the knights hot on our trail.
"Leave us alone!" Vivi yells at them, while we leap over Garnet's body.
Vivi pulls an old looking staff aiming at the guards. "Don't come any closer!" He threatens as he charges up some energy. I could feel his power bulinding up before he releases a fireball, but it nearly hits me and ends up hitting Garnet.
She suddenly jumps off the ground trying to put the fire out of her robe. "Ow! That's hot!" She yells out before throwing off her hood, exposing her true identity: a young woman having her black done in a ponytail, and wearing some kind of skin-tight rubber suit with a white shirt underneath, with brown gloves and boots. She also has a white rod strapped on her back and a crystal pendant around her neck.
"Zidane! It's time!" I heard Leo saying losing his stage accent after running off back stage. Zidane nods and turns to Garnet.
"Princess Garnet! Let's get outta here!" He tells her.
"What... What is going on!?" Steiner finally catches on to the situation…..sort of.
Garnet sighs before turning to the knight captain. "Steiner! Don't follow me anymore!" She tells him
"Captain, sir! We await your orders, sir!" One of the knights who chased me and Vivi on stage addressed Steiner.
"Hmmm... Well... Umm... Errr... Princess!" Steiner stammers, not sure how to act now. "I'm afraid I cannot comply!"
"Stubborn as always, aren't you?" She tells him.
"Come on, Princess." Zidane says. "Let's ditch Sir Rustalot and get outta here!"
"Princess, wait!" Steiner protests to no avail as she and Zidane goes over to Vivi and me.
"Hey, is the kid okay?" Zidane asks me.
"Yeah. He just tripped, that's all..." I trail off look at Zidane who gave that same look at the fight scene.
"Hey! You're…." We say at the same time before Steiner interrupts us…….
"Princess, I cannot allow you to go! Seize them at once!"
********************************************************************************************************************
(Play Battle theme 1 of Final Fantasy 9)
One of the knights rushes over to strike me down but I dodge every one of the slashes with ease.
'This is like when I saved Vivi from falling of the rooftops!" I thought recognizing my speed. Then I say, "Hey I don't want any trouble!"
"Should've thought about that before trying to steal the princess!" He tries to slice downward but by reflex, I catch the strike by the palms of my hands and stop him from moving.
"W-W-What!?" He stammers after seeing my gaze, I was really pissed off!
"I. Said. I. Don't. Want. TROUBLE! AERIAL DRIVE!" I yelled out in fury before giving him an uppercut which sent him flying, and then I jumped up meeting him in the air and drove my elbow down on his gut sending back down to the stage.
"Uhhh…." He groans after landing, and then he looks at me standing over him having that same look. "M-My fury ends here!" He runs back to the castle yelling fearfully all the way.
"Fire!" I hear Vivi yell, sending a more precise fireball towards the other knight who chased us and hit him dead on, knocking him off his feet.
"I-I'm gonna to be late for um…my date yeah! Later!" The other knight flees the fight as well.
"GET BACK HERE YOU WORTHLESS SCUM!!" Steiner yells at the fleeing knights as he fends off Zidane and Marcus. He pushes them off before running to me and barely slashing my arm.
"ARRRGH!!" I yelled out in pain before dodging another one.
"How dare you strike my knights!?" He yells while still pursing me.
"Hey, you made the first strike!" I yelled back, ignoring the pain.
He tries to come at me before my right starts glowing red; I looked confused before shrugging it off and running towards him. He defended with his sword, which I kicked out of his hands with my left foot and spinning in place yelling "DRAGON KICK!" which had my leg being engulfed in flames as I kicked Steiner , causing him to back step a bit before Zidane nicked him on his exposed left wrist.
"BAH! Only a flesh wound!" Steiner checking the damaged he sustained.
(End music)
I was surprised as every else as Zidane, Garnet and Vivi ran over to me with shocked looks on the latter two faces. Zidane actually looked impressed.
"Whoa, where'd you learn to do that!?" He asked excitingly.
"I have no idea." I said bewildered. "Ouch!" I remembered the pain on my arm which started bleed a bit.
"Wait a moment, please." Garnet said while charging up energy like Vivi did, but actually it had a good feel to it, guess it's because it's white magic.
"Cure!" She chanted. I saw a white sparkling cloud wrap around my arm as the pain slowly edged away, when it dispersed, the pain was gone and I stopped bleeding.
"Thank you very much, Princess!" I said giving her a slight bow.
She smiled and said, "You are most welcome!"
Suddenly, the airship shook as it slowly rose up out of the ground. I could hear the spectators say "AWWWW!" as they were disappointed in the sudden leave of the theater ship. Everyone outside tried to stay steady while the airship was in motion, with the exception of Vivi and Steiner who fell on their butts. Queen Brahne was not pleased when they saw we had her daughter leaving with us so she ordered her female knights to shoot harpoons at the ship. They were sticking to the airship from its back, causing it to hit some nearby buildings, and then another harpoon almost hits us on the stage as we scrambled away from the danger.
"Oh no! Look!" I see Garnet pointing over to a cannon above the queen.
"I take it's not a good thing?" Zidane asked Garnet.
She was about to respond when the cannon fired releasing a giant Bomb monster!
( Play Battle theme 1 again)
"Oh, damn…" I muttered as it showed up behind Steiner who was ready to fight again.
"Hey, look behind you, a bomb!" Zidane shouted.
"I won't fall for such an old trick!" Steiner said charging at Zidane. He dodged Steiner's attack and kicked him back towards the bomb that was slowly growing.
"As if that thing needs to be any bigger!" I yelled looking at the size of the living fireball.
"It's gonna blow, get away from it!" Marcus tried to convince Steiner
"Please Steiner, behind you!" Garnet pleaded as she healed Zidane's foot that throbbed in pain from kicking the armored knight.
"No! It's a trick!" Steiner argued as he rammed into Marcus with his helm and then charged in at me.
"I had enough of this!" I said running towards Steiner.
"Ron! Wait!" I heard Vivi say, but I couldn't stop, I wanted show Steiner how freakin' stubborn he was.
He tried to thrust his sword in my stomach, but I flipped over him, much to my surprise again, and landed behind him. I then caught his injured wrist and kicked the back of his knee causing him to kneel, and put him in the hammerlock which caused him to drop his sword again.
"Listen, man!" I yelled in his ear, causing him to cringe. "You think we're all liars, huh?"
"Yes, you impudent criminal!" He retorted back.
"Ok, first, I'm not a criminal; I got chased here by your dumb knights for no reason!" I yelled back, increasing the pressure of the hammerlock. "And two, if we're such liars, what do ya call THAT!?" I spun him around to see the bomb reaching maximum height. Steiner now looked more scared than I've ever seen him.
"That's a BOMB!" He said shaking in his armor.
"Are you sure?" I said looking like I don't care.
"Yes!" He yelled.
"Positive?" I said, still not caring.
"YES!" He yelled at the top of his lungs.
"THEN GET DOWN!!" I yelled pushing down, and bringing myself down and covering my head.
*BOOOM!!!!*
(End music)
The Bomb monster exploded.
And yet…the airship still was moving away from Alexandria and everyone was alive!
"Is…everyone…okay?" Zidane asked.
Everyone gave their agreement.
"Good!" He said. "I guess we can get to….."
*CRASH!*
He was interrupted by a piece of the propeller falling down.
"That's not good!" I said looking terrified.
"No kidding!" He said back to me. "Everyone brace for impact!"
The theater ship started to wobble and altitude fast!
*CRASH*
The ship finally crash into a forest in an explosion that could be seen from far away.

Back in Alexandria, the queen sits in her throne.
"Garnet..." Brahne says in thought "I never imagined you would do such a thing. Perhaps you're not such a helpless little girl anymore..."
"Zorn!"
A short man dressed in a blue jester outfit appeared at the Queen's left side.
"Thorn!"
Another jester appeared, only this time, in a red suit.
"Is our little experiment ready?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. It is combat-ready!" Zorn informed her in a squeaky voice
"Easily terminate Princess Garnet, it can, Your Majesty." Thorn said, also in a squeaky voice.
"I need her alive!" She shouted, causing both jesters to jump. "Bring her back at once!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!" They said and ran off.
"I will get you back Garnet!" She said in a sinister tone. "So the power to control the Mist continent will be mine! Bwahahahaha!"
