The Princess, now Queen, had all she could ever want; gorgeous furniture, her trusted best friend and Servant and beloved horse named Josephine. Although, her selfishness soon became a poison to the country, and her Servant knew this. Being the kindhearted boy that he was, he wouldn't question his closest friend's decision, even if he doubted them. He wanted her to be happy. Unfortunately, her happiness was just bringing their beautiful country even further into despair. Within the first year of her reign, a large resistance group had formed, making numerous attempts to claim the Royal's life. One such man, a leader of the resistance, had been captured and sentenced to death by guillotine. If the Princess knew of what to come, she probably would have never had him killed. On many occasions during the time that the man was still alive, a woman who had long Red hair would appear and beg for her lover's life.
"Please, Please Your Majesty!" The woman cried, clawing her way towards the princess.
"Guards!" Called the Servant.
"My love is surely sorry for it! Please! Let him live!" She screamed, tears running down her red face.
"Your love tried to murder the Queen. Do you really think that is excusable?" The Servant questioned harshly.
"I swear, he must have been manipulated by someone!" Her sobs could be heard all around the court.
"I highly doubt-"
"Silence." Boomed the Princess in a haughty voice.
"Your Majesty!" The Servant stammered. He just received a glare from his friend.
"Guards, take this woman away, she has ruined my mood, with her cries of redemption for her love." She said to the guards, then turned her voice to the woman, "If he truly was manipulated as you said, then he shall be in the heavens above when his death arrives."
"Your Majesty!" Cried the woman again, this time spitefully, as she was forced out of the castle onto the filth covered streets.
The Servant sighed but perked back up when the Princess had announced that it was time for a snack. This was her favorite time of the day, when her Servant would serve her any sort of delicious treat that the royal chef would prepare. Even with her country on the brink of death, the Princess would live so extravagantly.
"Riiiiin!~ Are you still awake?" Called her step-mother from downstairs.
"Crap," She glanced at the wall clock in her room, it was almost mid-night. "I gotta get to sleep..." The blond girl folded the current page she was one and closed the book. She proceeded to change into her pajamas and removed her head-bow. The room soon fell silent, except the sounds that Rin made while she was asleep.
When she woke up the next morning, she had to hurry because she was running late. She quickly changed into her school uniform, which was a simple white blouse with a Grey skirt. She added her own personal yellow bow to tie around the collar of the blouse. Her head bow was placed atop her golden locks then she stuffed her school work and the book inside of her bag. The 14 year old ran downstairs, grabbed some toast, then was out the door.
Then first bell sounded as she ran into the school building. Now she had five minutes to get to her first class. Because it was on the second floor on the other side of the school building, Rin just made it to class as the second bell rang. A few people stared as she made her way to her seat, being completely ignored by her blond friend who sat in front of her.
'Fine, if he's gonna be like that... then I'll throw stuff at him.' She thought to herself with a devilish grin. Len sort of figured she would try something so childish as that, and easily avoided all her attempts to hit him.
"KAGAMINE!" Yelled the teacher at Rin.
"What~?" Len rolled his eyes as he heard Rin trying to play innocent.
"Stop your playing this instant or a week of detention!" He threatened.
"But it was all Len's fault anyways." She said with a fake pout, trying to win over the teacher.
"Len, keep her under control." The teacher glared at the duo of blonds who both heard snickers from the other students in the class. 'Great. Thanks a lot Rin.' He said sarcastically in his head.
The rest of their morning classes went by fast and during lunch, Rin decided to confront Len.
"Len! Why have you been ignoring me~?" She asked, trying to sound innocent again. He pretended like he didn't hear her. So she kept repeating herself until he finally turned around slowly, glaring at her. Again she gave a very fake innocent look.
"Because you've been nothing but trouble! You keep blaming me! Stop acting all high and mighty and do stuff for yourself! You always copy my homework, steal my ideas, eat my food, and torture me! I'm not some servant for you to boss around, Rin!" His little outburst had the entire class staring in shock and awe.
"LEN, GO TO THE OFFICE THIS INSTANT." The teacher yelled, pointing to the door. It may have been lunch, but almost everyone stayed in the class room, including the teacher. Rin couldn't believe what her best friend just did, it brought her to tears as she stormed out of the classroom to the nearest place that she could find to be alone-- the old library. When she reached it, she went directly to the corner she was at yesterday and took out her book. It seemed like the only thing that could comfort her right now.
Alright, so the actual parts of the book, won't really be out in full detail. Lets just say the author only recalled specific events and the chapters are much longer and Rin is just reading the jist of it? I just don't want to go all out in full detail because of the ways I word things. And even though the Princess is now Queen, she will still be refered to as the Princess by the author, only the actual characters in the book refer to her as Queen or Majesty. Please read and Review, Thanks!
