Tales of the Royals

Happily Ever After

Ravenna

"Lucy, stop hitting your brother!" Ravenna laughed. 

Adrian grinned and lightly pulled the two apart. 

"Tell us the story again mum!!"

"Alright". 

Ravenna recounted the story again, like usual. It had been the only story her kids were interested in. And they especially loved the part about the curse on their dad and the awesome battles. 

Sure, over the years, they'd hyped up the story a little more than the last - it had started to be more like a fairytale, a long lost legend. 

But she knew that what had happened was the truest tale out there - one of romance, adventure and joy. 

When she wrapped it up, Adrian had quickly added in a few sound effects before carrying Lucy away. Hale followed after her. 

"Dad, put the princess down!" 

Adrian pretended to be a massive dragon while Hale made a few choice karate moves on him. Adrian dropped while moaning loudly in pain. 

She'd been surprised by what a drama queen he was but she secretly loved it more than anything else. 

They'd continued their garden at Corona and recently found out about a magical flower that they'd vowed to keep a secret. They didn't need people to exploit it. 

The years passed and Lucy eventually got married and had a child. Ravenna absolutely adored her granddaughter. 

The two had kept in touch with all the others and their children had  grown up together. Lucy was happy with Gerard and they made the perfect couple. Ruby and Ravenna had been ecstatic to become closer due to the shared familial bonds. Logan and Adrian had developed a healthy bromance while Christian and Eric looked on.

Arielle 

Arielle loved her daughter Melody. Together, Arielle, Eric and Melody made an adorable family and she was crazy with happiness. 

"I love you guys!" Arielle had yelled to her friends when she had left for the Bahamas. Shortly after the family vacation, Ella had announced that she was pregnant and they'd been excited to see the baby. All the girls supported her through the pregnancy, after all, they'd been through it already. Ruby had triplets, Ravenna had two children and Ariel had given birth to Melody. 

9 months later, she'd been at her best friend's baby's naming ceremony. Gerard was running around and poking Lucy, Hale was crying after he'd tripped while running and Ruby's girl twins, Allison and Lydia were chatting with Melody. 

Ella had smiled while introducing little baby Benjamin and everyone had cheered loudly. 

Ari and Eric watched as Ruby and Logan had looked on with pride when Allison and Lydia had met their soulmates - Scott and Stiles. Ruby was a little cut that Stiles was a human but Scott was a werewolf which rocked. 

Ella

It had taken 4 years of dating before she'd been able to marry Christian with absolutely no doubts. But she'd loved every moment of their time together. 

What she hadn't loved? The pregnancy that had made her act so crazily all the time. That hadn't been the best. 

But Benjamin was the perfect little boy and she'd been surprised to realise he was gay. But they'd supported him despite it all. And the man he ended up being with was charming, sweet and incredibly nice. 

So they'd had no problem with it once they'd finally gotten their heads around it. 

Ella remembered the way her "friend" Fiona had told her about Benny being abnormal. 

She'd smacked her in the face. They hadn't been friends after that. 

But Christian had high-fived her while Benjamin had smiled happily and hugged her tight so she couldn't give a shit. She had her family and that was enough for her. 

Benny had adopted a child with his husband Jerome and named him Tristan. They'd all loved the name and Tristan had been a very loved and spoilt child although it hadn't gone to his head.

Ruby

Ruby was the last of her friends to die, but she could attest to one thing. They had all lived happy lives with their families, governing righteously, loving greatly and passing on their legacy through the school they'd founded together in Corona - The Powers Academy. 

AN:

I can't believe I'm actually finished with this story... holy crap. Also, the Stiles and Scott stuff was just a really obvious allusion to my love for Teen Wolf and kinda demonstrate my ships (well, I'm quickly being won over by Kira and Scott though...) Also, I really hope you enjoyed the story and that you loved all the connections. I tried to be subtle - you're all smart enough to get references and stuff after all. If you thought there were too many characters, just let me know, I'll try to make it a bit smaller cast wise next time. I just wanted loads of diversity, you know? Also, the pacing got a bit fast. That was just because no one was really reading it so I kinda just wanted to get it out of the way and be done. 

 Peace out - Mana :)
