Snatcher Week Day 7 The Prince
A fire crackling in the old fire place. A clock ticking away on the wall. The night dark and bleak as a story unfolded. Being told through one's mind whom was wrong oh so long ago now.
"Her and I...We have a score to settle. You've think I've forgotten what she's done to me?"
A memory's sound turned up clear as day. Still ringing in the echoes of his former mind as he recalled it well. Still remembering the footsteps of his own mortal legs walking through the cold and mostly deserted halls until he found HER. The one who destroyed any and all happiness and even life itself.
"All on that cursed day! Look it's complicated but she didn't have to treat me that way. I was her prince and she was-....She was my princess. Everything was going so well...Or so I thought."
Flowers were thrown in the garbage by cold hands. Ignoring the struggling and screaming of a man who had been betrayed, heartbroken. Never seeing the true monster underneath until everything enveloped in blackened ice.
"Never left the house. Lonely and cold like the winters of Subcon. Paranoid and anxious, turned her back on others. I never understood."
The man never did. Until it all came together for him over years and years of the echoed memories replaying. She never cared for the emotions of the man. Only the fake role she desired him to become.
"It wasn't long before she turned against her people. On that day when I returned to Subcon, she broke down. What was supposed to be a joyous day had turned into a nightmare! Villigers ran and hid as her anger spread throughout the forest. She had gone completely and utterly crazy!"
Guilt. Ice grazing over everyone causing a massacre upon both empires. He never stopped her. Living among the many dead that was the collateral of his blindness to the real situation. He will never forgive himself for that.
"They say you shouldn't poke the sleeping bear, but honestly Kiddo-...These noodly arms of mine feel like poking. We're gonna poke her! Wake her up! Steal her riches! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Four new faces, reliable faces, smiled menacingly. Eager to help. Eager to get him revenge. Avenge him. He would always take back what she took from him.
"And I know just the thing to do to set her off. So are you ready? Let's go pay Vanessa a little visit."
