Snowflake glared at the Swan Queen as she gazed at her hungrily.
"Well, well. The rebel leader herself. To what do I owe the honour?" said she.
"Hazel, take Edina to Nurse Rosetta. Do not delay. Cipher, Gretel assist her." she ordered.
"Oh, I see. But how sweet of you. That does take me by surprise since you always pretend to be so heartless." said the Queen.
"You would know a thing or two about pretence, now wouldn't you?" Snowflake said .
The Swan looked hurt. "Touché." She said, putting her hand to her heart.
"You have killed my assistants, my friends, Swan Queen. You have defied me in my territory and betrayed us, despite owing your life to us. I think it's time now that you paid back." she stated.
The swan gasped. "How fair! You'd make a good ruler, won't you? But in the expanse of my life, I have never seen fairness ...Now tell me, would you believe in something you've never seen?"
"Princess, she isn't one to reason with .She is crazy." Red shouted out .
"How right you are!" said the Swan Queen, "Sold to a psychopath, lived among psychopaths and turned into one."
She turned to Red. "You seem to be smart and experienced. It really is a pity that I had to scare you like that by appearing as a wolf in front of you. But it was really amusing. How scared were you! "She laughed lightly.
"You freak! Was it you all along?" Red asked accusingly.
"Oh, no! I was simply playing along with your fears."
"Princess, please let me deal with her." said Hansel, stepping up.
"No, thank you, Hansel. She is for me to deal with." said Snowflake.
"Why did you come here?" asked Snow.
"Don't you remember, hon? You brought me here out of ...what is it again? Kindness .Curious little thing, isn't it?"
Snowflake stepped up to the Queen.
"So what do you propose be your fate?" Snow enquired .
"Just what you want, Princess." the Queen licked her lips and smiled, "A fight."
Snow smirked. "So be it."
She took out her dagger and threw one to the Swan. Nothing better than a fair fight.
The Black Swan looked at the blade with pure satisfaction.
She motioned towards Snowflake's abdomen. Snowflake blocked it with her dagger and attacked the swan's neck.
The Swan Queen disappeared.
"Well." the Queen said. Snow turned.
"I never said that I believe in a fair fight." said the Black Swan.
