Fate's Play

Prologue

Everything was done. My path was already set and it was no turning back this time. I strode past the long seamless green. It was so green as long as my sight could go. At the very far end, a warm smile welcomed me. I never thought I would be joining her but here  I am doing it. I walked slowly as memories flooded in my mind. I would definitely miss my time and days spent here. I held the hands of my mother and walked towards the altar. She was so proud as I could sense it through her wide smile. "Glad, you're happy mom!" I thought. After all the pain I've put her to, she should be mad but she is standing next to me, watching me take over her place. Together, we walked down towards the alter.

Being nervous was all gone. I'm a completely new person now. I've thrown away that trashy person named Quinn. I'm Grace. I was always Grace and will continue to be Grace till eternity tears me apart by bringing Doom to my life. I don't care cause everything will be under my control as soon as I reach the alter. All I could hear were screams and some even cried as I stood brave and tall before the alter. They've officially started throwing rose petals all around us which made the whole place look less terrifying. My mum took a place behind me and sat on the bench beside her guard, Mateo. I could feel everyone's eyes burning on my back as the clan's deity stood before me.  

I knelt down before him as he started reading the contents of his book. Kneeling down was tres difficile with the outfit I'm wearing. My dress was crystal white with pearls stuck on them as it meant the purity of my childhood. It would look like a wedding dress if I was in a wedding ceremony. But this is an occasion which was far from that. I was happy that this ceremony is almost gonna end and I could fulfil my mother's goal as a dutiful daughter. I never thought that I would take such a decision in my life. Who knew that the events in my life would make me take a stand like this? My dad would hate this. My friends and Felix would despise me till they live. But as I said earlier, I don't care. The goals of my mother is the thing which provides me power over all of them. 

The anticipation of my people could be well heard by hearing them scream for their new Queen.  "Yes, I'm coming" was all I could whisper. I wasn't well trained for this coronation ceremony as others might have. The elders chose me because I was the rightful heir for leading them - my people. He closed the book and gestured me to stand up. I stood up with a clear mind and took the chalice from his hand. "Swear by Hecate to follow her path and to protect her only people and eliminate the evil?" He questioned me. I answered him after drinking the green portion which tasted like wine, "I solemnly swear, that I, grac-" Shit I messed up, I don't want my mother to think I'm unworthy of her throne. 

I quickly masked it up by saying, "Graciously called Quinn Merida Hecate, would abide the laws for the safety and protection of my people, to eliminate what my people fears so that evil would not be pertained in this realm" By now, mum was standing next to me wearing her beautiful emerald studded gold crown and took my hand in hers. He smiled and placed the crown on my head from my mum's. I'm officially the queen now! Who thought of this? I definitely never knew I would take a leap like this. With the blood moon rising, a new witch is born or created. A witch who would be powerful than any celestial creature in the past or future. A witch who is supreme and dominant enough to end the whole world and start the reign of her clan. 

"You're ready now" my mum gushed around me as everyone started throwing petals and flowers in my direction. "Yes indeed," I said. I saw my dress turn into magnificent green as it indicated only one thing. My time has come. I would be the doom to this world.
