We've all heard the stories where the good guys win and the bad guys lose. Where the wicked witch of the west is turned to ooze or the evil stepsister gets what she deserves. Dorthy goes back to Kansas and Cinderella gets her happily ever after. What makes a villain the bad guy anyway? Are any of them truly born evil? Sometimes people become the villain because the ones they love the most crave to be the good guy. They will do anything in their power to help them achieve their goal of being the hero of the story, even if it means ruining their chance for a happily ever after.

This is where the lines between hero and villain blur. Once upon a time, in a distant kingdom in the Rose Valley, there lived a young princess. Maybe a little proud. Maybe she was the sweetest princess. And maybe not. She had many suitors, but she did not accept a single proposal for her hand in marriage. She didn't want to become a king's wife, she wanted to be a queen and rule her country. But one day darkness crept into the happy kingdom. A thick fog crept through the forest. Shadows walked under the treetops. The Shadow Lord came to propose to Princess Luna. She rejected him like everyone else, despite the fact that he was the only one who managed to impress her. However, the Shadow Lord isn't about to give up so quickly. He presents a gift to the princess. For the rest of eternity, at the stroke of midnight, she will die and come back to life with the first rays of day. Again and again. Every night. An endless cycle. Because as the Shadow Lord said, "I will wait for you, even if it takes forever." Old wounds are being opened. The boundaries between worlds are blurring. Will a prince on a white horse arrive and bravely rescue a cursed princess or...?

My mom is a pathetic cook. Not just in the kitchen, but in life. And I don't say that because I hate her. It's just facts. Take her life recipe, for example. She was supposed to have one kid-maybe two-turn them into perfect little princesses, you know, the type who'd grow up to marry nice men, bake casseroles, and organize charity brunches. But instead, she messed up the instructions, went off-script, and somehow ended up with four daughters who'd rather throw punches than tea parties. Honestly, it's like she added a whole cup of rebellion when the recipe called for a pinch. She wanted princesses and got... well, this. DIY Recipe for Bad Bitches (If you think following this will create the perfect family, think again.) Ingredients: - 1 cup of Bad Bitch - 2 tablespoons of Boss Bitch. -1 teaspoon of Crazy Bitch -A sprinkle of Good Bitch. For a little extra flair: - A dash of Betrayal - A splash of Judgement - A good heaping of Envy - Gossip - A spoonful of Manipulation - Competition - And of course, a generous scoop of Resentment- because some grudges never truly die. Instructions: 1. Start with a family recipe but immediately ignore all of the directions. Throw all four sisters into the same messy life, and let them simmer. 2. Add in a dangerously irresistible man who's anything but predictable. Stir the pot with misunderstandings, secrets, and forbidden love. 3. Mix in betrayal, backstabbing, and jealousy-but don't forget to sprinkle in loyalty and blood bonds, just when you think they might rip each other apart. 4. Let the drama boil over. Final product: Not the perfect princesses mom was hoping for, but: Four women. Four secrets. Four hearts in a dance. A powerhouse of women who'd burn the whole world down before letting anyone mess with their family.

❝All men must choose between Two Paths. Good is the path of Honor, Heroism, and Nobility. Evil... well, it's just cooler.❞ ~ Megamind If it's one thing Disney USED TO like to do, it ALWAYS had the heroes win. Here's how it goes down. You have a pretty girl who, who always has an enemy, girl gets caught in the enemy trap, strong person defeats the monster and saves the girl. Happily ever after. The end. Roll credits. But here's the thing, you never see what happened to the villains, you never hear their side of the story, their backstory that caused them to do what they did. Maybe they were banished from the land, that's why they put Sleeping Beauty under a curse that made them sleep for a hundred years. Or maybe their family pressured them into think beauty is everything and they must be the most beautiful in the land to finally get the approval that they did something good, maybe that's why they poisoned Snow White to take her beauty. What if they just wanted to get revenge for Peter Pan taking their most valuable treasure, that meant more to them in the entire world, maybe that's why they had a growing vendetta over Peter Pan. There are many other reasons why villains did what they did, but, did these heroes ever consider that these villains had a family. Like how maybe Gaston might have had a kid who had to grow up with only one parent cause the Beast killed Gaston. Or maybe how Dr. Facilier might have had a daughter, but since he was locked in the shadow realm he never got to have that valuable father-daughter relationship with her. What if Disney is hiding something from us. The story of these kids who had to grow up without a parent or with the burden of being teased because of their lineage. Well, Disney, you may be good at making giant Marvel timelines and making us cry at the end of EVERY Disney Pixar movie. But I'm good at revealing your secrets. Why be good when you can be bad instead? editor: @mya_colondres

Through the darkness, the computer screen illuminated the pale skin of Adelae's face around the black mask. Scrolling through the submitted questions, she came across one that made her smile. "Dear Lady Shade," She read aloud to herself. "Why did you choose to be a villain instead of a hero?" She chuckled, shaking her head at the simple, loaded question, before selecting it and opening the page to write a reply. "Hello Blogger KittyStan41. I bet you're expecting the classic tragic backstory in response to this question." she typed. " Dead parents, treated like trash as a kid, and it all came to a choice between rising to defeat my inner demons or succumbing to them. Well, my real answer is possibly something you haven't considered about the world of Heroes and Villains. Answer this for me, what is the goal of a hero? To make the world a better place, perhaps? No, dear KittyStan41. The classic goals of the Hero might seem epic and noble, but in the end it all comes down to stopping the Villain. What kind of life is that, when your only goals derive from the actions of someone else? Your whole life is used up as a preventative measure. Now does that sound like a good way to live? "I chose to be a villain not because I enjoy hurting people, but because I have goals that I plan to achieve. Don't bother asking what they are. If I told you, everyone would know, and people (baby heroes) would get in the way. Then how would I achieve them? I aspire to more. Is there need for a better reason?"
