Following a failed pickpocket attempt, a fall from some stage rafters, and an audition that she never imagined in her wildest dreams, Mare Barrow, street felon by day and wistful ballerina by night, one day finds herself as a dancer for Manhattan's prestigious Calore Dance Academy, owned by the filthy-rich Calore clan. More than that, her partner is Maven Calore, one of the owner's sons. And the pickpocket attempt, of course, was on Maven's older brother and the heir to the Academy, Tiberias "Cal" Calore. Naturally, he orchestrated the whole incident. A paradigm rags-to-riches success story unfolds, and as the seventeen-year-old climbs up the levels of social class, she dances a dangerous game of love and betrayal when lies are told and secrets are revealed. The gang Mare belongs to, the Scarlet Street Fighters, and the Calore clan are brutal enemies, and the girl, simple as the blood in her veins, is caught right in the crossfire of their bloody war. Mare soon discovers that the Calore family not only has a passion for ballet dancing, but an obsession for power and money. It seems that the Calores control everything, including her own life. And yet, Mare Barrow wonders if the risk of destroying the Calores and their dynasty is worth everything that she's ever wanted.

A FEATURED @FANTASY STORY ❝NO ONE IS BORN EVIL, JUST LIKE NO ONE IS BORN ALONE. THEY BECOME THAT WAY THROUGH CHOICE AND CIRCUMSTANCE. I'M SO AFRAID OF WHAT YOU COULD BE, IF GIVEN THE WRONG CHOICE.❞ When Mare Barrow trades her life away to Maven Calore to save her friends lives, she has no idea what he has in store for her. She is a prisoner, powerless without her lightning abilities, and tormented by her lethal mistakes. She lives at mercy of the boy she once loved, a boy who is now King. In order to survive the King's twisted love, she must become so much more than the face of the rebellion or the lightning girl-even if it takes her down a road no one should follow. As Mare stays imprisoned at the palace, her once ragtag gang of rebels have been expanding. They prepare for war, no longer able to stay in the shadows. But Cal, the exiled prince with his own claim to Mare's heart, will do anything to get her back. CHOICES WILL BE MADE, ALLIANCES WILL BE SEALED, AND NORTA WILL BE FOREVER CHANGE. FOR ALL WILL BE TESTED AND NOT ALL WILL SURVIVE. grabthemonets | all rights reserved © | Highest Rankings | #1 in MARE out of 599 stories #161in DYSTOPIAN out of 30k stories #36 in CAL out of 1,200 stories | Awards | 1st Place in FANFICTION in the Coffee and Cake Awards hosted Began Rewrite: February of 2019 Finished: September 2020

A lot of preferences-LGBTQ+ included

[COMPLETED - Contains sexual scenes, violence, flash forward] "Kiss me and tell me you forgive me" Cal says, his eyes longing. "I can't". Mare must accept that she now has two enemies, Cal and Maven. Where alliances are tested and love is what it comes down to, how will Mare decide what she wants. How can she move past the betrayal of two brothers. Death is a small price to pay unless it is at the hand of the one you love.

Inspired by a Hamilton au and a friend of mine's brainchild. Just don't ask where the turkey came from....I'm still wondering myself. Anyway, I had this idea that seemingly hasn't been done before. There are alternate universes in the modern world, such as high school. So this is just a fic the really has no major plot, just the adventures of the RQ characters in the fascinating world of............. Kindergarten. Btw, as a joke (or is it?) the theme song to this is ABC by Jackson 5.

A few random one shots of the Red Queen characters in any part of the series (also au's), since it seems like I was late to the fandom.
