Michael Jackson a young man around his late twenties is a low class man who is in the village of Capricorn. There is a young queen who is in her teens named Queen Elizabeth who rules the kingdome she very respected among her people because of her kindess.  How ever people were afraid of her father the King of Capricorn village is a very mean and greedy ruler. He never cared about the poorer class people he only put favor in the rich. And he doesn't want any peasant near the palace asking for money, food, or a job. How ever some people protested about the problem to the king but who ever speaks out will have there heads chopped.  So every innocent person who prostesed aganist the kings laws were punished and put to death in front of the villagers. Elizabeth had no choice but to watch the grusome deaths of all of the innocent people. The rich people threw food and laughed at them but Elizabeth didn't. Sometimes she tries to discuss the problem with her father but it would always end up with an arguement. "Daddy can we at least help feed the poor or make jobs for them. We don't even have to pay them with money we can pay them with a place to stay and eat. Daddy the peasants are people too we need to help them we can't let them suffer." Elizabeth cried. "I know sweet heart but we are better then them, they don't deserve to be in this village only the rich and royal rulers should deserve anything. Those peasants are nothing they are dirty, useless, and ugly!" King of Capricorn yelled Elizabeth kept her mouth shut but secretly she sometimes helps the poor and brings them food and water. She felt how unfair her father was to them they bowed when she gives them there needs. "Please enjoy my fellow villagers." They smiled waving Elizabeth good by. They quickly eat before they get caught by the guards and the king himself. Elizabeth walks throuhg the village enjoying the beautiful sunny day looking at the craftsman shaping all different kinds of swords, looking at the children watch a puppet show,  people send letters at the post office. And I see a young man with long straight hair, rose lips, beautiful eyes, and a smile on his face as  he is juggling balls in his hands. I clap after he was done juggling and put some of my coins in his cup. "Thank you kind lady." The guys mouth drops when he noticed it was queen Elizabeth and bowed at once. "Awe you don't have to bow but thanks you are a great juggler." The young man smiles. "Thank you your highness." As he bows again. Outside of the castle just call me ELizabeth." I say smiling. "Yes Elizabeth I will the next time I happen to see you around. Aren't you supposed to be safe in the castle away from the poor lower class people." He says mocking the king. "No I don't mind you people and what is your name?" Staring at his handsome features. "My name is Michael, Michael Jackson. I'm starving I haven't eaten in ages I spent my last few coins on a loaf on bread for dinner last night."  I look at him sadly. "I'll get you something if your hungry Michael." I walk to the baker asking for two loafs of bread. "Hello sir." Michael inhaled the smell of the bread that was being made. "Hello your highess." He smiles putting the bread in a basket. "Thank you." I say giving the bread to Michael. "Thank you your highness. Do you mind If I work for you? I don't make much money." He said while chewing the bread. "Yes of course you can be a guard for me."  My father spots me and Michael talking and walking. "Queen Elizabeth my daughter come here at once!" I quickly rush over to my father who gave me a death glare. "Who is that man your talking to? my little one." I took a deep breath. "Daddy that is Michael he is a juggler." Michael bows to the king as I introduce him. "Pleasure to meet you your royal honorable highness."  The King of Capricorn looks at him with concern. "Where did you get the bread from Michael?" He looked at him weird by the way Michael was dressed and eating. Michael was wearing a stained undershirt, brown pants with white tights at the bottom and black shoes. "Sir I bought it." Trying to sound honest as possible. "Impossible! Your a juggler they don't make much money. I'm going to ask you again where you got the god damn bread from you poor peasant." Looking up and down at Michael. "Daddy I bought it for Michael. I'm sorry but I couldn't see the poor guy suffer he was hungry. He hasn't eaten since last night and he did ask to work for us please give Michael a chance daddy he'll try his best." Michael smiles nervous at him. "I can guard you and your daughter with all I have your royalness I will do anything you tell me."  As he bows to my father again. "Hmm your a little to skinny to fight."  The guards snickered Michael looked down. "See look your highness I can prove it." Michael tried to lift a heavy box of apples but failed. "Nope your useless I want you off with your head!" My father laughed hard at Michael. "Wait what? Why?!" The guards held his arm I looked at Michael sad knowig that Michael was going to be put to death in front of a crowd of  people. I had no choice but to watch Michael be humiliated. "Come on my daughter lets enjoy this entertainment." My dad had some popcorn in his hand. "Want some?" I refused to have one he shrugged his shoulders. I needed to save Michael some how he can't die just because he is a peasant it's so unfair and he is cute! Michael looks at me while he is being tied to a wooden pole all of the villagers laughed along with the king. "Please don't let me die Elizabeth!" He screamed the children got some food and threw it at him. "No stop it please! I'm innocent I'm not useless or just some peasant." Then he was stoned since rocks were being thrown at him as well. "Daddy please let Michael go I cried."  Watching him being torturched. "I have a better idea we should burry him alive and die slowly." My dad made an evil grin. "No dad please I love Michael." My dad looked at me furious. "You what?!" Michael cried as more rocks get thrown at him. "I love Michael dad he is very sweet, and a kind humruous person." I run up to Michael's tied up body he had some bruises and blood running down his body. "Everry body leave him alone! Michael is just like you people he is a great person how would you all like to be torturched and have your heads cut off for no damn reason give it a rest. I want justice for peasants and the rich people all of us should get along. And love people for who they are and not just because they have more money or power." I kissed Michael deeply and he kissed back. "Awe." The cried sighed. "I as Queen Elizabeth don't see changes in the law then I would rather die too." I looked at my dad who was surprised at me for speaking out he loves me to much to kill his own daughter.  "Off with his head!" The crowd cheers afte a moment of silence and the guards takes me away from Michael. "Elizabeth!" Michael cried in tears the guards untied him forcing Michael to lay his head on the piece of wood tying his hands up. They blind fold Michael so they don't see the axe coming. "Chop the head! Chop the head!" My dad felt satisfied and powerful again. "Guys no! " I cried into my dads arm he laughs at Michael as the axe is  being lifted Michael prays that his death would be painless and quick or that his penalty would be stopped. "Please forgive me Michael this is my job I have to do this."  Michael nods his head. "Just get this done and over with." Michael shakes in fear waiting for death to arrive. "Stop!" The King ordered and everyone gasped the headsman puts the axe down to the floor. The king took the blind fold off and untied him. "I'm sorry I called you a peasant I'll try and help as much of you poor people as I can." I smiled and run to Michael crying with tears of joy we hugged tight kissing passionately. "Thanks dad for listening." We grouped hugged. "I just hated seeing my queen upset so I decided not to kill him. Your lucky because you would have been dead in seconds Michael." He joked. Michael and Elizabeth lived together in the castle and the lower class people got some jobs. Michael gaurded the king and the queen they were happily in love. And now nobody was afraid of the king anymore now that he is being nice to everyone. "I love you Elizabeth." Michael kissed her as he took of his war helmet. "I love you too Mikey bear." Later on her dad died and Michael took over the throne once Elizabeth and Michael were married.
