Evil Princess

Once upon a time There was a princess named Claire. Claire's mother died leaving her and her younger sister alone with a grief stricken father. The king couldn't stand to look at Claire because she reminded him too much of her mother. As a result he made Claire and her sister work with the servants so he could avoid seeing them. Claire had many chores to do as a servant and cared for her younger sister along with everything else. One day her sister didn't complete her share of the chores. When her father saw the unfinished tasks he was furious. Rather than see his wrath unleashed upon her sister, Claire lied a said it was her fault. As punishment Claire was forced to make dinner by herself that night. For Claire this was not unusual punishment and so she accepted it with grace. But while she was preparing the food a pot spilled into the fire and the grease in the pot caused the fire to rage out of control. Claire escaped the accident with her life but not her looks. The entire left side of her face was burned in the fire and so Claire began to believe she wasn't pretty anymore and hated any one prettier than her. Claire blamed her father and began to plan her revenge. She burned her father's sheets late in the night while he slept. He died and Claire became queen. Claire was still filled with anger and believed if she couldn't be pretty nobody else should be either. Claire had a lot of power as queen and was able to execute those she deemed too beautiful to live. Eventually her sister grew up into a beautiful maiden and Claire killed her too. Nothing, not even death, could stop Claire and her killing now. So what do you think? Will you be next?
