Grand Majesty point of view

"Good morning everyone," I looked around at the kids sitting on the carpet and the adults sitting in chairs. Today the the Grand Majesty, which is me, is suppose to tell a story to life the hopes of the people of our society. To tell that they are in good hands. Truth is though:

They are not in good hands at all.

Our Royal Ruler James Goode insures the people that they are safe. That they have nothing to fear. We are only safe though because the people that our scientist have run experiments on are locked away. They were driven crazy by these tests and unable to function. I was the one that got away. They had thought that the test didn't work. The experiment failed. To silences me I was awarded the position of Grand Majesty, second in command. I stayed quite for awhile so everyone in the government would trust me. That trusted me a little too much.

All the guards left the room so the people and children with would not be terrified. I could say what ever I wanted too.

"Grand Majesty, we will be standing out by the car. When your done just walk out," the guard said to me. I nodded my head in approval. There were no cameras in this room or voice recorders. Our James trust me way to much to have no super vision of what I am going to say. He should be worried; by the end of my story the whole nation will be turned against, but a revolt against the government is not what I am seeking. I am seeking out who here is still human and who here has turned.

"What is your story about?" A little girl in front of me asked.

"My story? " I looked at the girl and all around the room. I heard the lock on the door click as the door closed with a loud bang. The guards were finally gone after doing one last sweep around the room to make sure I was safe. "The story is about love. Not love between two people but the love of a country. of a family. My story is about loyalty, trust, and maybe a little magic too." Wide eyes watched me. they were shocked. No one ever dared to use he those words. Love; doesn't exist. loyalty; only good if you are loyal to the Royal Ruler. Trust; we only need to trust our Royal Ruler. Magic; never existed. Anyone who mentioned these thing would find themselves dead, but not anymore. "Let me explain."

"Years ago, everyday was exactly like the day before. You wake up, go to work, come home, and go to bed. and if you were lucky you got to do again the next day and the day after that and the day after that.
