Tonight was unusual, you usually slept peacefully in your feather bed. You live near a small village, in a tall mansion a few miles on the outskirts of the woods. You have three 'siblings', and your 'mother'... you've always known you've been adopted, but they've always treated you with love and respect. But even so, something has always felt off... like there was more to the story.
*sigh, "I'll just gaze at the moon until I fall asleep." You say groggily. You suddenly hear a buzz and freeze in panic. You've always been told your deathly allergic to bees and now one actually got past security?!? "So this is it huh?" You mumble, giving into what seemed to be the end. That is- until you hear a small voice. "My Queen, what are your orders..?" You fell back from shock. *did a bee just talk?!?* "my Queen, are you alright?" The small voice sounded concerned. "Yes I'm fi- wait did you actually talk?!?" You whispered, your hand covering your mouth now from shock. "Elana, are you ok?!" Your mother's voice trailed off from below."yes mother, something fell but I picked it up!" You yelled to her, as you stood to your feet. "What is happening, why can I hear you talk?" You said to the bee. "My Queen, I am your real mother's guardian. Your real name is Melisande. Your mother gave you to the woman who raised you to protect you. But the time has come, you are the Queen of the bees. You may not understand it now, but you have great power and your people-the world needs you. I've come to activate your powers."
"I-I'm what? A Queen? How do I know your not lying or I'm hallucinating or something?" "Well Melisande, I'll show you..." the little bee said. The bee glowed and transformed into her human form. "Your majesty, I'm Mischa, and now I'm going to activate your powers." She put her hand on my collarbone and said "release!" In a soft but stern tone. I felt a burst of energy, and started glowing. "What's happening?!" I asked getting worried. "My Queen, your getting your powers" *lightning, -mystery.* Soon, I collapsed. Shaking from the immense power that was loosened in me. "Here my Queen, drink this." She handed me a sweet golden drink and I regained my strength. "Thank you" I said smiling sheepishly. "Anything for my Queen." We walked over to my window and looked out. "Want to fly?" She asked. "I don't know how..." I looked away embarrassed. *how can I be the Queen if I don't even know how to fly?* "I'll teach you how." I looked back and leaned on the window frame. "But first let's get you your cape, that's cool these days right?" "Yes, I believe so." "Light cape!" *poof, the cloak appears* "woah, so cool!" You said, in awe. She handed it to you and you put it on.
"You'll need to be at the hive tommow for your coronation ceremony." "Ceremony?!?" "Yes, the time has come for you to take your rightful place as Queen." She sighed, looking at the bee who just transformed into her human form. So many questions filled her mind and concerns swarmed as well. She wondered if this was even real, if THIS was actually happening. *guess I'll just have to find out tomorrow if it's not a dream...* she thought. "My Queen?" "Yes?" "Are you ready to learn how to fly?" "Ready as I'll ever be." She smiled and flight training began.
