Remember how Cinderella was locked away, but ended up marrying her prince? And how Snow White was murdered, but lived happily ever after? Not everything is always what it seems. My name is May James. I've been locked away my whole life. I don't know what it's like to have a friend, or a brother or a sister, or a pet, or anything. My life is one big secret. I live here in the big city of New York, but that changes once my father is transferred and we move to North Carolina. I never asked for this at all. I just wanted to stay in one place, live there, grow up, hopefully have a family, and then, die. But lets see if everything changes. And I was right. Everything has changed. Because of Hayes. ©NashtyGrier257 2014 Story credit: @R5_MagCon_1D

You know that saying that goes like 'things don't always work out the way you planned'? Well I know that saying very well. It is the only thing that can explain what is happening and why my whole world has been flipped upside down. I'm part of the revolution, I've always been. The king of our little land called Terrian is oppressive and crooked, making the rich richer and the poor poorer. Although he doesn't like using the word 'poor'. People like me are referred to as the 'unfortunate'. As if luck had anything to do with our situation. So how did I get here? How did I go from being the most wanted criminal in Terrian and supporting Jack in his effort to kill the royal family to a guest in that same exact royal family's castle? The only answer I can find is the young prince who, despite his horrible father, gives me hope. Hope for a better life for the unfortunate. Hope for a better ruler. Hope, a thing I barely even remember feeling before. But I can feel as well as see the revolution stirring in the streets right outside the castle. A revolution I helped create. A revolution that was planning on killing the only thing I had faith in anymore. I couldn't let that happen. So let me tell you the story about how I, the notorious Kingdom Thief, got stuck in the middle of this war.
