"The only 2 families members who rather not get involved with this feud is Romeo Montague and Juliet Capulet who became the Star-Crossed Lovers. They both met when Romeo and his friends Benvolio and Mercutio sneaked into the party that's hosted by the Capulets. With loved at first sight, Romeo and Juliet married in secret because as long as their families are in the middle of their feud, they cannot reveal their love for each other."
"When Romeo got a short confrontation with Juliet's cousin Tybalt, Mercutio is killed in the middle of it, this causes Romeo to kill Tybalt to avenge Mercutio. Well after that Romeo leaves Verona after realizing what he has done. While he's away Juliet thinks Romeo was dead unaware what she heard was only fabricated, so she and the priest fakes her death with a poison that isn't actually poison."
"Romeo would later return after being informed of this, Romeo himself who got into a brief fight with Paris, eventually he commits suicide by poison and Juliet who finally woke up and finds Romeo dead next to her, stabs herself to death after getting distraught by Romeo's death."
"Their deaths eventually ends the feud, so the Montagues and Capulets make peace."

After a brief fight on saving a girl who's mistaken for a Capulet, Juliet herself decide to sneak into a ball with a friend Emilia without alerting anyone. There she meets Romeo for the first time and it's love at first sight, but they unaware of their of their family names because they haven't introduce themselves yet."
"Well Romeo was called away by his father who announce Romeo betrothed Hermione De Borromeo whom Romeo's has less interest in. Juliet returns home but didn't here the announcement. Next day during her 16th birthday, Juliet as Red Whirlwind saves a group of women who are being taken away as collateral, it's because this Noblemen wants a Noble Crest from Lord Montague by doing this. After Juliet was able to meet Romeo again on the fields of irises, that night at the Capulet Family Cemetery, Conrad and the former Capulet Servants and Retainers reveals who Juliet is and swear allegiances and loyalty to her, also shows her the Sword of Capulets."
"Upon this revelation, Juliet ended up passing out. Juliet is unable to meet with Romeo again and hangs out with Cordelia while Romeo has no success on seeing Juliet, but he visits his mother, Lady Portia. Meanwhile Juliet back as Red Whirlwind goes to save Doctor Lancelot after he was arrested on suspicion of being in cahoots with the Red Whirlwind. Juliet as Red Whirlwind goes to the prison cell where the doctor is being interrogated and breaks him out without a problem. They are cornered during the escape until Romeo shows up on the scene. During a brief fight between him and Juliet/Red Whirlwind, he recognizes the Red Whirlwind as Juliet because of the scent of irises. He pretends to lose his footing whilst fighting her so he can take Juliet and the doctor with him into the river which they all survived. Romeo takes them to a safe area, but that's when Juliet learns his full name, Romeo Candore De Montague who's supposed to be her sworn enemy."
"Juliet is shocked with the fact that Romeo is the son of the man who slaughtered her family after hearing his full name, and deserts the Capulets resolve for revenge. Meanwhile Romeo is being chastised by Benvolio for letting the Red Whirlwind go and also tells him that until he becomes the new ruler of Neo Verona, there is nothing he can do for the moment, not while his father Leontes is running Neo Verona in his Tyranny. Juliet, back in disguise as Odin ends up having another encounter with Romeo again while visiting her parents grave. They fly across the city using Romeo's Dragon Steed, Cielo until it starts to rain and they take shelter in an island cottage on a lake outside the city, there Odin accidentally reveals her identity to Romeo much to his surprise."

Meanwhile back in the city, a manhunt for the Red Whirlwind engulfs Neo Verona, even going as far as rationing the food supplies under martial law and imprisoning suspected innocents into a cage to be burned alive. Dr. Lancelot then discovers that a priest of the church was the one who slipped information on his connection to the Red Whirlwind. The doctor later makes a decision as Juliet comes to terms with the Montague tyranny. Well, Doctor Lancelot has something in mind for this."
"After Lancelot saves the innocent people in the cage and sacrifices himself by committing suicide using fire, the Red Whirlwind is believed to be dead unaware that wasn't the real Red Whirlwind, with only Romeo learning the truth that Juliet, still alive and is in fact the real Red Whirlwind. Benvolio's father Vittorio, the mayor of the city, is stripped of his aristocracy and exiled together with his family due to his protest on Leontes's tyrant rule. After seeing the doctor's family as they are leaving into the countryside, Juliet and her companions learn from an informant that Lord Montague has ordered Vittorio and his family to be assassinated on the outskirts of the city for protesting against him. They arrive in time to protect them but just as Juliet is about to be killed by an assassin, a mysterious man on a Dragon Steed named Tybalt saves her life."

Standing Hermione up for seeing the fireworks to honor their engagement which Romeo only has eyes for Juliet, Romeo pursues Juliet through the city streets to give her an iris she dropped. After Romeo catches up with Juliet, they share their first romantic kiss. Meanwhile Lady Hermione is left alone without Romeo around."
"Tybalt who bribed a Carabinieri Soldier tells him that it was a corrupt priest who's behind the spilling of information about the Red Whirlwind falsely arrested innocent people, meanwhile Romeo, who has deduced Juliet's family name, tells her that he doesn't care about her family's name and that he loves her as Juliet. Juliet leaves, but gives him a handkerchief she made for him. Romeo is later punished for breaking his promise with Hermione, then he blurts out and informs her that he is seeing someone.

Romeo then sees Tybalt and Juliet while up in the air."
"Juliet and the others conspire to attack Montague, Curio and Francisco's advice about some flaws is constantly ignored by a naive Juliet for believing the sooner Montague is dead, the sooner her suffering will end. Unfortunately the plan was thwarted, by Camilo, Conrad's old friend who betrays them by revealing their location and the Lord Montague soldiers attacks them. Francisco arranges for Juliet to escape with Tybalt, but not until Juliet goes into shock after accidentally stabbing a soldier.

She tells him of Lord Montague's lies and true nature and allows him to visit Juliet. In a rendition of the balcony scene, he declares that he will throw away his family name to stay and be with Juliet and they decide to elope."
"Next Romeo and Juliet leave Neo Verona and travel across the countryside to stay out of the conflict. While they are travelling through the forest Juliet tells of Cordelia and how she brushed Juliet's hair everyday and Cordelia considers it her treasure, which is the reason why Juliet never cut her hair short and never. Romeo tells the story about Cielo who was given to him as a birthday present after his mother left him and the Montague name and considers him to be like a little brother. They are attacked by poachers who are hunting a chestnut Dragon Steed, but they manage to force the men to retreat after giving them a pounding. Romeo decides to let Cielo go to be with the chestnut mare so they can both live in happiness with the ones they love. Romeo and Juliet arrive at a town where they get food and travel by an abandoned boat down the river. Juliet tells Romeo about her childhood dream of being a beautiful bride someday, if she survives long enough for that, but whilst Romeo doesn't have a dream he says that right now he is happy. They come upon a dilapidated church overrun by irises and take the vows of marriage before one another and the Goddess, plus they say their vows since there isn't priest there."

After both Romeo and Juliet show their true identities to the guards, Juliet is taken prisoner."
"Following the captured, Juliet is exposed as the leader of the Capulets and imprisoned. Lord Montague tells Romeo that Juliet was using him and that she will be executed, regardless of how he feels for her, but Romeo knows none of that is true at all. Hermione visits Juliet in her cell and tells her to stay away from Romeo even revealing that she was Romeo's original fiancé. She is just about to be executed, but is ultimately saved from imprisonment by Francisco, Curio, and Antonio. She is at first reluctant to go because she doesn't want anymore people to die for her. But Curio says that if she dies now, Lancelot's sacrifice would have been in vain and all for nothing. She agrees, but out of nowhere she is pulled away to the Escalus Tree where Ophelia touches her and proclaims that Juliet will return to Escalus, well Lord Montague did ask Ophelia on why Juliet is here but got no answer. Juliet finds herself outside the castle and is surrounded by soldiers until Romeo saves her after his small talk with Mercutio. They decide to temporarily part ways, vowing to be together again."
"For betraying him, Romeo is banished from the keep by Lord Montague, and gives him authority over the Gradisca Mines. He is not allowed to return until the mine doubles its production, but Romeo vows that their fight is far from even over. He arrives to find the mines filled with small-time criminals, and decides to work in the mines himself to increase production faster. He befriends a sickly worker, Petruchio. Meanwhile Juliet and her allies move out of Neo Verona City to travel to Mantua. Francisco tells Juliet to forget about Romeo, but she tells him that she can't because of the vows they made to one another, so not gonna happen. Over a small period of time, Petruchio gets sick, and dies after succumbing to his illness. Romeo then learns the truth from Giovanni of how Petruchio was imprisoned. He also tells him the real difference between Nobles and Commoners, while Romeo cries over Petruchio's grave."
"Soon after Petruchio's death, Romeo is told by Giovanni to leave the mines before he is hurt which is something Romeo refuse to do. Juliet is resting, remembering the moments linked with the great tree of Neo Verona. At the same moment, an earthquake happens, causing a major cave-in at Gradisca Mines and injuring a majority of the workers. While the commanding officer of the mines orders the men to continue working, Romeo declares that all the labor workers have done enough work to allow themselves to be free, declares the mines to be abandoned, and goes off to rescue some of the workers trapped by the cave-in. He rescues the remaining workers, and the other workers, who distrusted him before due to him being a noble, now do trust him."
"Back in Neo Verona city, with her patience and mental stability waning, Hermione runs away from home to try to see Romeo if she knows where he is at all. Juliet meanwhile arrives in Mantua along with her companions and when she hears about the cave-in at Gradisca she is later found praying for Romeo's safety, but he's quite alright. Hermione is attacked by bandits on her way and she grows darker by blaming Juliet for taking Romeo away from her. After taking a commoner's carriage to Mantua she unexpectedly runs into Juliet. Embittered and jealous, she attacks Juliet before fainting in exhaustion. The two girls reconcile their differences slightly when she awakens, but briefly Hermione tries to stab Juliet with a dagger but she grabs the blade with her hand and bleeds much to Hermione's surprise. Next day Hermione returns home afterwards, but she asks Juliet to keep her visit a secret as she doesn't want Romeo to know that she was there."

Meanwhile Titus blackmails Lord Montague to adopt his son, Mercutio or Montague's past will be revealed. Montague seemingly accepts the offer, but for betraying him Montague kills Titus in a sparring and falsely marks it as an accident. Tybalt reveals to Juliet that Leontes Montague was the son of a prostitute and his father was a Capulet noble, but drunk and abusive man. Since his father abandoned him and his mother died of an illness, he was adopted into the Montague family, but he poisoned the heir so he would become the next ruler of the family and killed the Capulets to fulfill his ambitions and to take revenge on the Capulets for what they did to him and his mother, because the entire Capulet Clan instead of his Capulet Father who's is responsible alone.

Tybalt questions if Juliet hates him, but Juliet says she loves him, because of her love for his son."
"Romeo works to create the village he has promised, but at first with pitiful results. He later meets the Old Man that he and Juliet met when they encountered the dying roots of Escalus and he gives him some seeds that will withstand the most hostile environments and the village flourishes well. Meanwhile, Juliet begins rehearsing for a play William has composed for Neo Verona reenacting Juliet's tale, also to be sure the people of Neo Verona will rise up against Leontes Montague. In playing a part where she kills the tyrant, she considers that although she doesn't hate him, for the future of Neo Verona and for the sake of the Capulet family she must kill Lord Montague.

"After spending some time together, the lovers go their separate ways again, with Juliet leaving for Mantua. William's play is underway and during the performance Juliet revives the Red Whirlwind ego. She plans to lead the citizens of Neo Verona not as the daughter of Capulet, but as the Red Whirlwind once more and that night Curio and Juliet discuss the story of how Juliet became the Red Whirlwind in the first place. As word spreads about the Red Whirlwind's revival, the people back at Neo Verona City start to revolt.

In the council of nobles, Leontes Montague proposes to burn the entire common grounds to flush the Capulets out. Only one was in favor, his adopted son Mercutio, while the others refused. He then proceeds to kill the chairman and label it again as an accident to persuade the others to accept out of fear. Romeo arrives to persuade his father to surrender, but, instead of surrendering, his father shows him Escalus, and he witnesses the tree dying as another earthquake strikes the land. Juliet then visits her parents' grave as she plans to rebuild Neo Verona alongside Romeo not knowing what's coming next after Leontes is finally out of the way.
