"princess nanako, well if it isn't the brattiest of them all"
"prince tomura, well if it isn't the crustiest of them all", nanako retorted back.

"baby you're just a game and I'm in it to win it", nana said before turning...

MY eyes fluttered open at the sun shining into my room. I looked over to my nightstand and saw the pink gift sitting there.
I had almost forgotten about it since I passed out last night right after reading todoroki's note.
twisting the little box open, inside contained a beautiful gem. a necklace from tomura.
'guess he felt sorry about what he said. even though it was all for sho—'
before I could even finish my thought, knights busted through my chamber doors, surrounding me.
"I-I'm sorry nanako! we couldn't keep them out. there were too many of them", midoriya apologized.
"what's with all the commotion?", I asked, clearly not happy with all these people bursting into my room while I was still in my nightgown.
"I'm sorry princess nanako, but these are orders from queen nemuri", yagi said as two knights roughly pulled me off my bed and took me to the cellars.
✿.｡.:* ☆:**:. tea .:**:☆ *:.｡.✿
nanako was sitting on the dirty cellar ground. she was not happy. 'at least let me have breakfast first', she thought bitterly.
"can someone tell me why I'm even in here?!", nanako yelled. not expecting an answer, nanako signed. for some reason, the guards weren't present, so it was just her and her lonely cell.
"you're here because you were accused of poisoning momo. and before you ask, your motive was because you wanted prince tomura all to yourself. you weren't happy for them so you decided to get rid of her", a female voice said.
nanako looked up, to see the one and only princess. itsuka.
to say she was shocked was a mere understatement. nanako knew someone was pulling the strings from behind the scenes. but who it was, nanako wasn't sure.
"surprised?", itsuka asked with a fake smile.
nanako was speechless. out of everyone it could've been, it was her own dear sister.
"why?", nana managed to mumble out.
"why, you ask. haha that's funny. don't pretend that you don't notice what other people say about me! that I'm only nice and kind. while you and momo are intelligent! witty! beautiful! competent! everything I'm NOT!", itsuka ranted.
"w-what do you mean? you're wonderful!", nana countered.
"SHUT UP! momo is always praised no matter what. and you're always loved by mother even though you're a brat! and what do I get?! NICE?! NICE DOESN'T GIVE ME THE THRONE!"
"i-is that why you p-poisoned momo?!", nanako asked, feeling surges of anger and sadness flow through her.
"heh. so you knew. yeah, it was me. if I got rid of her, then the next one in line for the throne would be you. which was why this plan was such a great plan! I'm killing two birds with one stone!", itsuka smiled.
"I-I can't believe you! we're your sisters, itsu!"
"sisters, you say. then you should be more than happy to give me the throne! ever since we were little, you always got what you desired because you were mother's favorite. and every guy you wanted, was handed to you like a new toy!"
nanako's body started to tremble. tears were threatening to spill. but right here, right now, it was real tears. not those fake ones she'd use to put on a good show.
"oh! and chisaki? haha, yeah, I was the one that killed him. I don't know what witchcraft you used to make him turn on me, but he paid for it. so now it's even", itsuka said with a grin.
nanako couldn't believe her ears. part of her just wished it was a really really bad dream. it was one thing to have selfish desires towards the throne, but to go to the extent of killing someone and hurting someone close to her, it drew the line for nanako.
tears started running down her flushed face. nana's eyes were red and puffy. she thought about what itsuka had just said.
then suddenly, everything was as clear as day. it was almost like a light bulb went off in nanako's mind.
itsuka smirked. "what? you figured everything out now? too bad it's too late".
"you teamed up with chisaki because you both worked towards the same goal. the throne".
"you killed him because I gave him a second chance to live, and you didn't want anyone to find out about your agreement with him".
itsuka laughed. "continue, I want to hear more of your analysis. even though you're to be executed later tomorrow for attempting an assassination on momo".
"that makes sense on why you sent monoma to the village. it was to see what would happen to chisaki! and the knight that snuck into the cellars was one of your men, trying to kill him", nana said.
"you then poisoned momo. using me as the scapegoat, saying how I was jealous because I wanted tomura to myself, you made them think that I was the one to attempt murder", nanako said, finishing her analysis.
"you're so smart nana! and to think, you'd be so stupid as to fight out in the open with tomura. you made it too easy to find your weakness", itsuka smiled.
"so you sent someone to spy on me and tomura while we were in the garden?!"
"indeed I did. and what I discovered about you two's relation was worth it".
"itsu. please", nana whimpered. "please turn yourself in. if you apologized, I'm sure mother would forgive you. maybe a punishment, but it wouldn't be as harsh!"
itsuka scowled. "you fool! I've come so far and you're telling me to quit now?! you should be begging for my mercy!!"
nanako continued to cry. she was a sucker for second chances, she truly believed in them. she wanted so bad for her sister to just...just be good! just go back to how things were.
"hm? such a crybaby. crying for your own death tomorrow?", itsuka teased.
"...no...I'm crying for you...", nana squeaked out.
itsuka seemed pissed at her answer. "huh?! why would you be crying for m—"
"itsuka", a voice said that was all too familiar to both girls. "I expected better from you".
queen nemuri along with prince tomura and nanako's knights had showed up from the shadows. all knights were at standby.
however, what surprised itsuka the most was the appearance of momo looking healthy and chisaki, living and breathing.
"h-how?", itsuka's question was so breathless it almost wasn't heard.
todoroki quickly went over to nanako's cell and unlocked it. helping her stand up, nana wobbled over to itsuka.
"I knew all along".
