Lightning strikes, violently as the rain pours, making a monstrous melody, for all to hear. A carriage, holding the royal family is on its way, speeding down the slickened roads, for this carriage was carrying more than just a king and queen, it was holding a small child, that had yet to be born. The unborn child was waiting to see the light of the world, and live in prosperity.
Fate had other plans.
As they arrived at the building, greeted by the best doctors within their wondrous kingdom, the queen was quickly brought into the building and to avoid the downpour as best as humanly possible.
Lightning whips through the sky, thunder booms, and the roar of the treacherous rain, overpowering the screams and cries of the night. Within the hospital, the king waits behind a door, awaiting his new heir. Little to their knowledge, their precious child will not come home with them. After several hours of waiting, a doctor comes out of the room to get the king.
The nurse takes the child for a bath, smiling at the two royals as she passes. Down the hall, through a set of double doors, she sets the child in the tub. She was gently washing the small child when she suddenly falls to the floor. A group of cloaked creatures surround the child; the boy’s cries could not overpower the sound of the storm. With that, the boy had vanished, replaced by another infant. The nurse is slowly woken up, unaware of what had taken place. She takes the child back to the assumed parents, bundled in a blanket. The queen holds the child close.
“What should we name her?” The king questions softly.
“Rose,” The queen hugs the child gently, smiling.
The king hugs his wife, and smiles at the child, “Hello, little Rose.” He gently kisses her forehead, then his wife. Nothing could ruin this for them.
Meanwhile, the storm picks up, howling and screaming for the prince’s return, as footsteps echo throughout the forest.
