"My queen. We have caught an intruder in the left flank of your forest. The intruder was trying to burn down the trees and start a wildfire" The troll bowed as he spoke, entering the enormous throne room. "Male or female?" The girl sat up in her throne, her boredom replaced with anger. "The wolves say it's a female, mid-childhood" the troll looked up at her. "Bring her to me," She ordered, no emotion in her voice. "Right this instant my queen" The little troll rushed out and in a few minutes, the troll arrived back with two wolves, one carrying the unconscious human teenaged girl.

The 19-year-old Queen made a downward motion and they placed her down. "Good work my dears. Hank, reward the wolves then get back to work" The Queen dismissed them. A werewolf guard led them out from the room. She woke the sleeping human. "You. What were you trying to do!?" She said with slight anger as she realized the troll meant her forest where she was raised, not the one in the realm. This could only mean it wasn't a supernatural girl rebelling, but a human girl. The girl awoke from the magic-induced sleep and began thrashing and screaming as she heard the woman speaking.

"Monster! I was trying to destroy you! We were told in the village that the one who destroys the forest, destroys the witch herself" The human yelled, angry at not saving everyone. "Let me guess, that fool Wyatt. I should have dealt with the fool visitor. Alas, my dear, it was but a lie. Now, I am amused by your bravery. Work for me and you will live. Reject... you die" The queen responded, emotionless.

"Never! I won't work for a witch who slaughtered my parents!" She glared at the young women sitting on her throne. "Hmm. Be more concrete my dear," She said, nonchalantly. "Alyssa and Carter Wilson! My parents" The girl responded with fury at the witch's ignorance. The Queen shrugged.

"I actually liked them and was saving them for last. They helped some escape my realm" She said, her perfectly trim brows furrowed as she remembered. "They found a cut in my magic that prevents any of you from leaving. I like to see your lives go by.

I kill one by one and there are more to come because your village caused this!" Her anger grows and a black figure appeared behind her but only the troll noticed and he stood quietly.

"And as for your father, he was the one who tried to stop the rest and saved me from being killed. Such a noble man," The queen appeared to ponder, looking quite pained and in awe. Then her eyes turned back into the emotionless pits that they were.

"...and that was what cost them their lives. If he would have let them kill me, I wouldn't be here, you'd all be safe. But your father was darn too good. Don't worry, even my magic or my father's, could prevent him or your mother from going to Heaven" she was grim-faced, but then it lit up as if she was kid opening a gift.

"Or as daddy's heritage, Greek Mythology says, Elysium. Choose now" She ordered, the light vanishing from her eyes. "I won't join you!" The young girl said, trying to sound positive and with no such tribal silly thing as stuttering as her aunt taught her. When facing evil, stand strong.

The dark shadow diminished before growing. The troll bowed immediately and waited. The Queen hadn't the least bit idea. The troll nodded and used his magic to make the fire grow gradually in the torches. "Well, I want you in my control. Regina!" The Queen spoke up. The guard opened the door. "Yes, my queen?!" Another human girl, about the same age as the village girl, appeared and looked at the Queen with utter admiration.

"Take this human to the guest bedchambers. Get her ready for the binding spell and get Daniel" She said, a smirk on her face. "The werewolf or the vampire, my Queen?" Regina grinned. “Hmm... let us see, the vampire. Helen, get the courtroom ready! I want it impeccable to bind her to Daniel Nightshade, Vampire King of the North. She will become what he is and shall love him" The Queen smirked, satisfied at her idea.

"No, I won't!" The other girl angrily refused. The troll slowly let her bonds come apart. The human noticed her loosened bonds and ripped away from them. She noticed the torches and took them as a sign of God. She came at the witch with fire from a nearby torch. Destinie was scared of the thing that caused her parents pain but she hid it well enough and used a spell to grab ahold of the fire quickly. The girl decided it was a mistake and tried to run for it. The Queen chuckled darkly and froze the village girl. "You can't kill me! Have you learned nothing! Your village brought this upon you all, now stop fooling around" she sighed.

Destinie created a sphere-like prison and looked at Regina. "If she won't cooperate," Destinie looked into her mind and found what she was looking for. "...then tell Fin to order the wolves to get Cecilia Untuan" the servant nodded, and another troll entered, having been called upon. "No!" The girl yelled, scared for her best friend. Regina politely asked a warlock guard for her to move her.

The guard looked at the Queen before agreeing. They bowed and left and another guard took his position. She ordered the troll to see what was going on in the village. He nodded, eager to serve his queen and she smiled. He bowed and left. "Marine, tell everyone in the forest they are welcome to the wedding. Make sure one or two trolls spill the word and some stupid villagers hear" She said, a plan already formed in her mind.

"Yes, my queen! Right away." She answered, also very eager to serve her Queen like the troll. "Tell them to dress their best, it is a wedding after all" Marine left. "For their foolish ideas of destroying my forest, they shall pay. I am sure some will try to rescue her. Capture those who come. Don't kill them yet. My top warriors will capture the rest" she called to herself. Her guards and maids stood there, one guard communicating her order to the werewolves patrolling the area who howled the information to the mutated wolves accompanying them. They began the hunt.

“Hannah! Tell Blake I want him here in an instant" She commanded. Hannah rushed off and soon Destinie heard heavy footsteps that could only belong to one person. Blake Blackthorn, 6'3, Strong, built, the one and only Werewolf/Elementalist/witch-wizard King. He came in through the portal. He'd been in the other dimension. He was one of the strongest, after Destinie, of course. Her right-hand man, and only best friend. The only man she truly trusted. Who also happened to be her husband and the one who gave her three forces to reckon with.

He bowed, laughing and handed her a couple of Dahlia flowers. “Mexico?” she took the flowers and a vase appeared before her. She set them inside and they were placed down. She bowed her head a little, showing respect and thanks. "So who was the human crying and something about marriage?" He asked, slightly amused.

"Only daughter of the Wilson's. Tried to burn my forest down, brave. I want her to work for me. She denied so I did the only thing. I'm binding her to Daniel Nightshade" she answered, nonchalantly. "I assume, you have decided to casually let someone blurt out something and then we attack" He smirked, knowing her. "Correct, my dear Blake. Now, who should capture the rest that stay in the village? Also, I hope you weren't reading my mind" She looked at him, eyebrows raised.

He smirked, that was also how he knew. "Sorry. The vamps would try to... suck some bit of blood. Not bad but they'd be a pain. Trolls would hurt them, no offense King Finus, but we know some are a little rough. Wolves could attack. Witches... maybe... elementals... maybe too. Yeah, one of those" He said nonchalantly as he saw Destinie, the one, and only Queen, already calculating everything. He smiled slightly. Destinie thought it over and smirked. She had it.

"My dear husband, you are to be the head of the operation. You will lead the elementals and some witches and wizards. Take the earth and water elementals and about three fire ones. I will as you say, mind link you" She smiled evilly. "Very well... my Queen," He said, smiling widely. Destinie laughed and so did he. He was the only to ever make her laugh and he was glad and overly proud of it.

This story is about her facade. How 'evil' she is to everyone, how she, for the rest of her life will cause pain to others and if she ever has offsprings, so will they.

A theory will be tested. The theory?

Love can defeat all in the end.
