Varian's POV:

We were almost to the top of the stairs when Cass spoke almost out of nowhere.

"And then what?" She asked, nobody was there and i hadn't said anything.

Weird...

"Who is she talking to?"

"Look, I know none of this is your fault. And I don't want to hurt you. So when Rapunzel comes for you, don't try anything foolish." She explained once we reached the top.

She got rid of my cuffs.

"Cassandra, your angry, i get it" i said "believe me i know what it's like, but you are making a mistake"

I sighed.

The path of hate is a dangerous track
You take one step and it's hard to turn back
It pulls you along
And though it seems wrong
It feels right

Why i started singing?

Don't ask, but i can tell you that part was not easy to admit.

Why did i keep that truth serum anyway?

Don't you see this path your on leaves a permanent mark
It feels good at first
Then it slowly turns dark
With each passing day you're further astray from the light

She started walking away and i ran after her.

I gotta talk some sense into her.

Suddenly
You lose your way
And lose the thread
Lose your cool
And lose your head
Every loss is harder to excuse

Then you'll see
You'll lose your faith
And lose your soul
Till you lose complete control
And realize there's
Nothing left to lose

Nothing left to lose

I grabbed her arm to stop her from running away from me.

"Cass! Trust me! Becoming the villan isn't the answer-"

"Is that what you think i am!?" She cut me off.

The path i'm on is a path paved in black
I'm taking that road and i'm not looking back

Each twist and each turn
Leads straight where i'm yearning to go

Yes it's true my path is dark
But i see where it ends

My rivals will fall as my power ascends

Despise me that's fine
I'm taking what's mine even so

Not like you

What?

You lost your nerve

You lost the game

But you and i
We're not the same

I'm not lost
This fate was mine to choose
