Unknown POV

I was so excited and pleased, it finally worked! I haven't used that special power of mine for years. Especially on someone very distant from me.

I sat on my throne, and suddenly an idea popped in my head.

"Servant! Bring me my cloak!"

In a few moments, my servant handed me my special black cloak.

"Time to pay my daughter a visit."

.

.

"Hello child." I said coolly.

Silence.

"You know you can't do this forever."

Silence.

"Speak to me when I'm talking to you!" My patience was running thin.

"What do you want?" She hissed.

"I want your attention!"

"And I want to be free. I guess we both can't get what we want."

I sighed, "Why can't you be just like your brother. He has his freedom." I reasoned.

"Obviously, you don't know what freedom is. He's just blinded by your spells."

I said nothing but just looked at her slouched over position, facing the wall. Her black hair fell down covering her face and those beautiful gray eyes of hers. Her pale skin was the only light I saw which was surrounded by darkness.

I opened the cell door and made my way towards her.

"Look at me." I demanded.

She didn't move.

"Elizabeth!"

She flinched when I said her name. I came around her and crouched down, "Look. At. Me." Each word gets more cold and demanding.

She picked up her head slowly and her eyes were very red and swollen from crying so much. As a mother, it broke my heart. But as a ruthless queen, I can't and will not allow myself to become soft.

I stood up straight and was about to leave when Elizabeth spoke up, "Elliot will come to his senses and realize that you are a sick, crazy woman, when he does, we will both take you down when the time comes."

"Oh my child, believe what you want. Threaten me, but just so you know my dear, I always win." Before I could let her respond, I left the cell and slammed the door shut.

Who does that little girl think she's messing with? She thinks she can defeat me? I laughed to that silly thought.

Sitting down on my throne, I thought to myself. My own daughter going against me?

"My queen, I have some news." My servant said rushing in.

"Is it good?" I asked eagerly.

"N-No.."

"What is it then?"

"It's y-your men, Sir Thompson and Theodore."

"Did they succeed on their mission?"

"T-They are dead...my queen." He bowed his head.

Startled by this, I shouted, "Wha-How? What happened??"

"I-It was this young lady." He handed me a picture of a girl who is probably the same age as Elizabeth. She has long brown hair and her golden eyes made me look back at them in horror.

"C-Cathy?" My hands began to shake.

"No, this is her daughter, Joy Wright. She is the one who killed your men."

"Where is she now?"

"She is still in Nertronia as we speak."

"She looks so much like her mother. That horrible women who almost killed me. Everyone probably thinks she's the hero and I'm dead. Well here I am, alive and well." I looked back at the picture and said, "Forget the old plan. We now have a new one."

"But my queen, we ca-" My servant didn't get to finish because then, the sirens went off.

I abruptly stood up as a guard came to the door. I walked over to him and yelled over the sirens, "What is going on?"

"One of the prisoners escaped and took a spaceship."

"Who?!?"

"Your daughter."

"WHAT?? HOW??"

"I don't know how she escaped. None of us saw or heard her. But by the time we did, the spaceship was already missing and so was your daughter."

"You imbeciles!! How could you let her go?" I went back to my throne and rubbed my temples. "What am I going to do now..?" I mumbled to myself.

I noticed my servant and guard were staring at me, waiting for me to say something, but I sternly said, "Both of you are dismissed."

I need to think this through. What has Elizabeth done was completely out of hand. She has gone and ruined everything. My only question is,

Where will she go?
