*A DIFFERENT TWIST ON THE TALE OF MEDUSA* "He said I was 'beautiful'. He said he wasn't doing this to hurt me." I thought out loud as I sat on my throne. My beautiful snakes hissed in response. 'And what a lying little bitch he is' I thought. HISSS! "You agree with me don't you my little babies." The more I thought back to that day the more livid I became. I felt my snakes swarming around my head trying to calm me down. 'My entire fucking life was ripped from my hands. It was as if they held my head underwater, drowning me. But leaving me right their at the edge of death's door. Yet not letting me breathe the sweet air that comes with it. Slowly torturing me for the past 5 years of my god damn life. Never letting me breathe even the tiniest breath' I thought. 'At first I WAS sad now I'm just FUCKING PISSED OFF' as it could sense my thought I got two louder hisses in response. "I want, NO I need revenge" I said. "My little babies need to be fed huh?" You can just guess what my response to that question was. "My blood lust needs to be sated and the only way its going to be is if I kill ALL THE FUCKING GODS, WHO DID THIS TO ME." I screamed to myself as I sat up from my throne. I paced 'I need to be bathed in there blood. I need to see the life drain from their eyes so my stone cold one's will be the last thing they ever see so they can see what their curse turned me into. I want them to see the bitterness behind my eyes. So I could feel there horror as they realise what they created will be the ones to destroy them' I shouted in my head. Thoughts running rapid. All I could hear were my snakes in my ears and my labored breaths 'I had to suffer, now so will they.'
