Royal Monsters

1

A beautiful figure wandered across the wasteland. She was gorgeous, deep brown hair that was red when it hit the light. Chocolate eyes that hid one hundred secrets. She had olive skin and a tall slender figure. She wore a red body suit with and long trailing cape than brushed across the floor. Her suit ended at the same place a swimsuit would leaving her long legs bare towards her ankle silver armour wrapped around her legs it was delicate the armour trailed into shoes. Her arms had the same armour wrapped them. She carried a staff that was silver and had a stone that hit the light. Her face screamed perfection as she smiled she could captivate a city. Her looks were deceiving because she was not a beautiful person she was a destructive monster.

First person narrative

A figure withered on the floor blood poured from their side as they attempted to get away. I smiled, no one escapes me. Maybe if humanity spent less time fighting each other they would of stood a better chance. A civilisation should work together not against one another. Maybe that was there downfall. Realistically though there was only one person that could stop me and they are long gone.

'Is there any point in trying to escape when you can join me?' I said to the person and i approached them.

They stopped. 'why would I join you?'

'Have you not seen what I am capable of? I can make this planet great again'

'You are a monster'

'Maybe, or maybe I'm what humans crave. I am power, the true form of what humanity so desperately fights for. Your greatest armies merely lasted minutes against me. Humanity united but it was too late.'

'You will never be the God you try to be'

'Oh Child, I am much more than  a God'

I lifted them by the throat so i could see their face. A young woman, her blond hair was matted with blood, her blue eyes held pain. 'So sad' I murmured. 'Strong, young and beautiful. You would be perfect in my empire, never mind you will never see me for how great i really am. How upsetting it is such a loss'

'Please' She begged 'kill me'

'Funny you think I will give you the mercy of death. You will suffer for eternity for not choosing my side.'

'what is your name?'

I raised my sceptre to her heart and pierced her heart. She was still impaled as i brought her closer. She gasped for air as I whispered 'Nova, That is the name of your ruler'

I removed my sceptre and as she hit the floor she crumbled into a pile of ash. My demons appeared, ravenous creatures coated in black collecting a stone- her soul from the ash. They would place her in the hell i had created. A place where they must relive their worst fears for eternity. If only they understood i was here to save them this would not be their fate.

Fires raged in the distance, the last of their precious cities burnt. I watched as my soldiers grouped people. I approached the two groups, one significantly bigger than the other. I walked over the general watching the smaller group.

'Which ones are they' I said pointing to the small group.

'The ones who will not conform' He said

I pointed my sceptre and they crumbled to ash, their souls were collected as the ash blew away in the wind.

I stood in front of the larger group. 'I must thank you for seeing the truth, the way. I am your new ruler now. You shall worship me as your new queen. Do not fear I will make the earth a heaven other planets wish they could be.'

I hit the ground with my sceptre and the wasteland was turned into luscious greenery and beautiful buildings. A silver palace was formed in the distance.

'This is your new home' I hit the ground once more. More groups of people arrived. 'You are the ones who survived my arrival and chose the correct side. There are 17 million of you. That may seem small compared to the billions you were used to but do not fear my armies will protect you. Follow my soldiers who will assign you jobs and places to live'

They looked lost as groups of my soldiers clad in fine silver armour led them away. I smiled at my victory, finally after years i had been let free and i could relish in my glory. My power was finally free.

Happiness surged through me like a intoxicating drug, my body felt elevated to the highest level. I had finally achieved this new world. A world where i was was the ruler, finally i could show them my true form.

As i reached my palace i saw its true beauty. It was tall and have beautiful spires. The door opened upon my arrival and my throne sat in the middle. Pillars lines the way to the throne and a marble floor  glistened. Stairs led up to a beautiful golden throne.

I took my place onto my throne. The beauty of my place hid the true darkness of what happened to earth.There will always be payment went something is taken, those who died used their lives to pay for my empire. My throne stood tall I could hear the victorious cried of my beasts in the far distance. I smiled. Everything i ever wanted was here.

Everything was perfect.
