Part 1: Mad Mariette and the Prince.

I walked onto the stage my stride gentle and long, the tuxedos tail trailing the air nicely behind my body before i hit center stage "Good evening Ladies and Gentlemen, what you are about to witness is more real than it seems, more unreal than a fairytale yet reality is knocking at the door, please. Relax yourselves as we stare into the demonic world that we cloud with florescent lights."
I bowed and the lights that allowed sight cut off in an instant, murmurs of curiosity filled in quietly before they were shocked by the loud noise of nails on a chalkboard. the lights lit up again blinding the crowd of aristocrats momentarily " You scoundrel, you heiven! Get out of my study this Instant!"
the shouting man was young he wore brown trousers a white tee-shirt and a faded cream fedora, it was plain to the crowd he was an ordinary person. or so they assumed..
"oh~ come now my prince, surely there must be a misunderstanding"
the butler rone suggested "no. this..Wench, used me 'That'. ripped away all of my hopes!"
The young prince began to pace while Rone and the Mystery person watched silently,
the Mystery persons face was hidden by a white scarf with black butterflies her dress was white with a blue ribbon, but the white had tints of red and brown, the long black hair was a mess with untamed tangles and a lizard skull hanging from the front.
Suddenly the lights began to flicker the man, butler, and crowd all gasped at the flickering and then she spoke silencing all questions " I do not use the useless, You asked for my appealings and i gave them to your feet"
her voice was quiet, cold, and seductive. she moved forward her arm that was hidden from the crowds sight and held up a bloodied bag before dropping it on the princes shoes "i gave to you the heart of a man, the skin of your cat, and the eyes from your bird."
suddenly her voice rose with a surprising boom "You asked Me what i Wished for on a Man!!! It was You who questioned my Heart! and it was YOU who blinded me!"
the crowd jumped and the prince fell into his chair "...then listen to me now. i Beg of you-"
she cut in her words cutting the hearts of the crowd " i will not, you do not deserve my sympathy, for it was you who forced my hand"
there was a sudden clatter raising the tension as they both turned to witness Rone cleaning up a shattered tea pot frantically " sorry my prince, just a slip of the hand.."
the prince seemed to rise from his slouch "quite."
the Mystery girl reached to the scarf draping past her eyes and slowly began to lift it "do you know how the Mad Hatter became so mad?"
she whispered the sentence just loud enough for the crowd to catch "of course i do, he lost his village to the jabawakie during the queen of heart reign, why?"
he stared at her as she ripped away the scarf showing that her eyes were gone and screeched "BECAUSE YOUR MY JABAWAKIE!! YOU DO THE BIDING OF THE COUNCIL AND I GO MAD!!"
the crowd gasped as the blind child took a knife and stabbed herself in the heart the prince was frozen as was Rone the butler and just as the lights dimmed she choked out " it is you ..brother, who has driven me mad"
the stage faded to black and a single light returned onto me as i stared at the shocked and confused crowd "A truth is more deadly than serial killer in your room, so watch your words for who knows, maybe next time... it could be you"
the stage went black with a poof of smoke that went off after my words and than the room lights filtered in, in a blinding speed and the crowd cheered unaware that in that very room was said Serial Killer and he had made his mark on me.
To be continued...
(think i should continue?)
