‧͙⁺⁺˚*･༓ 𝐁eing Queen. Ruling. Power. It was everything that The Queen of Hearts stood for. The Queen of Hearts ruled Wonderland with a iron fist. Wonderland was her mother and father's home well not anymore as of right now. 

Since King Beast ringed all of the villains up, her mother's home was now the Isle.

Her mother's crimes were Attempted Murder on Alice and Abuse of power and Ordering executions for petty crimes and mistakes and never accepting when she is wrong, even if her mother would never admit and she called herself a great ruler.

Nobody could prove her wrong, expect her father the King of Hearts. If her mother ruled Wonderland with such power it was no doubt she expected anything less from her daughter.

Since young Rosalie had always kept herself in fabulous clothing, well as fabulous as you could get on the Isle. The most fabulous thing you could get was special earring at Jafar's Junk Shop and dusty heels.

But Rosalie wouldn't know. Her mother being the way she was closed off all communicate on the Isle, she thought she was so much better than anyone and because she thought it was to dangerous for Rosalie to go out on her own. 

Since she was as young as she could remember Rosalie wasn't allowed to go out of the large chipped red gates that shield her from anything outside of the Isle. 

Rosalie wasn't even allowed to go to Mother's Salon, she only found out when her father told her.Typically mom. She thought to herself.

Rosalie of course had been spoiled whenever she wanted something she could get it, and it was normal for her to throw her own temper traumas like her mom when things didn't exactly go her way.

She hated not getting her way more than her mother hated white roses, always paint them red in her mind.

The only place Rosalie was allowed to go was her garden which was filled with one flower : roses of course. 

Big roses, but the thing was they weren't even real, they where just white roses painted red, since the Isle barely had sunlight for the roses to grow so her mother made a exception.

She was a princess and her mother told her nobody could tell her otherwise. Well princess lived in castle but Rosalie would barely consider were she lived a castle.

The castle was more rundown that anything else. It was made fully of cobblestone from head to to. On the castle grew old dead roses with sharp thorns  there was  more rusted than anything else.

Inside they had black and red furniture that her mother's card guards got her whenever they where in the best conditioned her mother would keep it.

The castle was never dusty or was there spiderwebs in the corner if there was her mother would scream at the guards and the few maids {since her mother chased them all away, Rosalie couldn't remember a time a maid stay all year along} they had to clean it up afraid it would make Rosalie's allergies act up and make her feel unwell.

Most of all they had broken chandeliers and the "throne" room wasn't even consider it anymore. Rosalie had her throne as well, it was crusted and rusted beyond beauty. It was also always cold inside the castle. 

Currently Rosalie was inside her bedroom. When she first moved into the castle, Rosalie tried to make her room princess perfect. Her bedroom was cobblestone aswell, and she had a gold rusted bed with soft red covers and a actually comfort pillow. Rosalie also had a closet full of clothes she made herself.

Rosalie loved designing it was a passion of her's. She knew the difference between every fabric, and she knew how to put a look together, she also knew how to do her makeup well, she never got the chance to it since her mom forbidden her because that's what they had maids for.

Rosalie had gotten dressed for the day. She had picked out a outfit she had in her closet. It was  a black and red blazer covered in tiny heart jewels and large gold pieces she could find around the Isle along with big heart earrings, she also wore a white shirt with a large gold heart made of jewels on it, the edges covered in roses, she matched it off with black formal shorts, white tights and heeled gold shoes.

She put her hair in a half up half down curly hairstyle, she couldn't forget her crown. She had to get another one since her old one had been stolen but some willy thief. It made her so furious, she yelled to her card guards to chase the thief down but they where unsuccessful to caught her. 

So this time it was just black with red gems in it. It matched the whole look, once down she packed her sparkly red heart purse fixed her eyebrows and walked out of her room.

She looked as she walked down the dark hallway to see a large photo of her mother in a very intimidating stance, with her signature red, yellow, and black dress on. 

Rosalie stopped in front of it and tried to copy the stance, she made her eyebrows frown and put on her mean face. She thought she looked so stupid. It wasn't that much in her blood to be that scary, sometimes she could be when she lost her temper.

 When she did she would turn bright red like her mom, her eyes would go into beating heart and she would scream. Rosalie cleared her throat forgetting about the poses as she held her hand out before she said "Off with your head !"

That didn't sound right. 

She did it again. 

"Off with your head !" with a little more tone. 

That was terrible !

She groaned loudly to herself. "OFF WITH YOUR HEAD !" she screamed with furry. She smiled to herself successfully. 

She did that every morning, it was her future quote so she needed to get it right. She made her way to the dinning hall.

It was pretty small for a dinning hall, but she was going to call it that. She looked to see a room right down the hall. It was dark down the hallway and no light ever shined there.

It was closed off nobody could get in. Rosalie knew what room was. It was her older brother Ace's old room. It had been a bright sunny place because her brother was a ray of sunshine.

Now the only thing stood was the haunting memory it left Rosalie with. She got flashback to the afternoon she found her dead brother, she closed her eyes blinking it away before a card guard told her "Good evening princess, and your future majesty."

Rosalie cleared her throat and nodded "Good evening, now off with you." she said fanning him away. With her command he went. Rosalie went back to the dinning hall. The card guards let her inside.

It was of course cobblestone and had a large table covered with a dusty red table cloth. It had three seats. One was Rosalie, the other's her father and at the head sat her mother.

"Good morning mommy." she said with a smile. Behind the newspaper was her mother.

Her mother looked the same. Same fair skin. Same brown eyes and black hair that was tied into a fancy up do. Her mother had a massive physique which made her strong. She wore a black and red gown with black and yellow stripes with black heels and her classic gold crown though it had grown rusty over the years, but Rosalie wouldn't dare tell her that. She also had white stain gloves.

"My little red rose." her mother said with a sly smirk. Rosalie smiled back she was gleaming, her smile could light up a room, really Rosalie thought it was.

"Darling aren't you forgetting something ?" her mother told Rosalie. Rosalie rose a brow before she said "Oh." she skipped to her mother before bending over to kiss her cheek on both side. 

Her mother did the same to her. "Now go sit." she told her as Rosalie walked over to the table, the card guard pulled her chair out for her. She sat down and put her napkin over her knees.

She then noticed her part of the table empty. "Where is your breakfast ?" her mother asked as Rosalie said "Seems like they forget." as Rosalie said "Don't worry mother, I'll handle it."

She stood on the table as she yelled "Idiots !" which caused all of card guards and maids to rush towards her. "Y-Yes Princess." one told her as Rosalie said "You all seemed to have forgotten something." 

 Rosalie went and picked up the plate. "Can somebody tell me what I'm looking at here ?" as one of the servants said "A empty plate princess." as Rosalie said "Yes, a empty place, you all are expected to serve me and my mother and my father food on a daily basis, and here I find a empty place in my presence."

 Rosalie threw the plate as it shattered on the ground causing it to break and causing the servant who was closet to it to flinch.

"I expected nothing less than perfection from all of you. You are looking at the future queen of Wonderland ! You're future ruler ! And all of you here are being lazy." as Rosalie went back to her seat.

"We are sorry Princess." one of the younger servant said as they started to clean up the mess she had maid as another started to serve Rosalie her breakfast which consent of ricotta strawberry french toast.

"It is fine, all of you be gone." as Rosalie fanned them away once they left, Rosalie looked up at them.

"Mother how did I do ?" as she went back to her more calm state. Her mother rose her eyes at her. "I am disappointed Rosalie." as Rosalie eyes fell before rising again in confusion.

"What ?! Mother, I told them there wrong."

"Yes you do and what did you do let them go ! They could have been planning to starve you for all you know. Everybody in your presence is a obstacle and obstacle must be push away. You must do better, because right now I am sure weather or not your ready for your crowing."

Rosalie eyes swelled with tears though they stayed in her eyes.

"You will spend your day in the library reading all of Wonderland's history no breaks and once you're done you will practice more." as her mother rose from her seat before adding "Do better Rosalie, or I will find somebody more fitting to rule." as her mother left her.

Rosalie muttered "Yes mother." before she picked up a small piece of her toast and nibbled on it.

Soon Rosalie found herself in her family's library. She was bored to death, she knew knowing her family history was important but it was putting her to sleep.

She yawned in her hand. She blew her cheeks out, she didn't want to disappoint her mother, she loved her mother even if her mother didn't love her back.

Rosalie huffed as she added "Why do queens need to know about this stuff anyway ? It's not like it's going to help me rule." but she pushed through it and kept reading.

Sooner or later Rosalie had finished all nineteen books. She put the last one down and smiled. "Thank roses." she added to herself before getting up.

She went back to her bedroom as she took a breather. She then decided to go workout. Rosalie worked out like everyday, she looked in the mirror and then pinched her sides. 

She then went to the scale she kept in her bedroom.

She had kept track of her weight everyday. She looked down at the scale. Her eyes went wide, she had gained 10 pounds. "Dear God I'm a cow." she told herself, humiliated at what the number said on the scale.

She went inside her bathroom. It was colored rusty gold and faded red. She looked down at the toilet. 

She narrowed her eyes. She huffed before titling her head, she knew the dangers of a eating disorder but it she ate anymore she would no longer be able to fit into her skirts.

She pinched her arms aswell. She then shook her head. She wasn't going to do it. 

She was stronger anyway, just needed to get back into her daily workouts that's all.

She carried her granola bar which she checked the calories on as she also took her sketch book out she remembered when she made a dress competently out of her old bed-sheets she had a natural talent. 

She began to sketch to herself legs crossed sipping her bitter tea which she made sure the maid didn't put that much sugar in.

She licked her lips as she began to make a design of a cute pantsuit she even added a bow and everything. 

She needed some new fabrics, it would be nice if her mother allowed her to go outside for once in her room but asking for that was like finding a needle in a haystack.

She bite on the end her pencil. She smiled before getting a idea. She loaded up her bag with everything she needed including her sketchbook.

She went towards the gate grabbing a leftover stool as she stood on it before hoping over the gate.

Rosalie landed on her feet. She looked. She couldn't believe she had just did that. She smiled to herself ear to ear.

She then started to run, sketchbook in hand. 

Rosalie smiled at the Isle. To the place she barely knew. It had tiny shops and alley ways where kids played and were crooks were. Rosalie stopped at a local shop to see beautifully made red fabric.

She touched it and eyed it's detail. "Beautiful." as she saleswoman smiled at it. Rosalie payed her seven coins. Rosalie thanked her and went on. 

She stopped to look upon a shop. She saw the bright colors which was something odd in the Isle.

Rosalie made it inside. Her mouth hung open.

It was the most beautiful thing she had seen. It had so many multicolored things colors. It had so many trinkets of all kids such as giant masks, with clothing, books, and other things.

Rosalie looked to the big sign to see it read "Dr. Facilier Voodoo Arcade." it had games that were inspired with Voodoo such as tiny heads and daggers.

Rosalie felt like a kid in a candy store. She then heard "Can I help you ?" she turned to see a brown skinned girl.

She was a slender dark skinned girl with brown eyes, amaranth pink lips, and long black hair with light gray highlights tied in pigtails. She had four dot markings on each cheek and had two violet streaks across her right eyebrow. She wore a amazing outfit as well she wore a small amaranth purple top hat with blue feathers, a scarlet dress with puffy short sleeves, and an amaranth purple waistcoat with gold lining and buttons with red and green feathers on the left side collar. She also wore fading purple tights with face patterns that resemble Shadow Demons and wore black and white wedge heel shoes that resemble her own fathers. For jewelry, she wore two golden vine bracelets around her wrists and a flower-like medallion around her neck.

"Hi." Rosalie said bright smile as the girl said "Hi." with a wave. "You're outfit is by far the best I've seen on the Isle. The fabrics are amazingly made" as the girl said "Thank you, are you here to play ?"

Rosalie titled her head "Play ?" as the girl said "Yeah." almost as if Rosalie was crazy or something. "It is a Arcade, you know ? Says it on the sign."

"Right." Rosalie said as she looked around appreciating everything around her. The girl noticed. "You're not from here are you ?" as Rosalie said "I'm kind of a princess around some parts."

"Rosalie Hearts." Rosalie told the girl holding her hand out as the girl carefully shook it. "Freddie Facilier." as Rosalie said "Awesome name to." as Freddie let go of Rosalie's hand.

"If you don't mind can I take some photos. Your shop is helping all my creative juices flow." as Freddie folded her arms. "You make art ?"

"Well I make outfits. I'm kind of a designer." as Freddie held her hand out for Rosalie's sketchbook.

"Oh. I've never let anyone see them but myself." as Freddie titled her head hand still out. "Here." Rosalie said handing it to her. Freddie flipped through some pages.

"You're not half bad." Freddie told her. Rosalie smiled at her kind words ? Well they sounded kind to her.

"Hey sis check theses out." as Rosalie started to get nervous. She never had a crowd look at her work. Would her sister find her work good too ? She rose her eyes to see the girl.

She was walking over. Rosalie made eye contact with her.

Unaware her and this girl would meet again years, and her and her crew and Rosalie and the friends she would make in the future would go against one another.

She was a light skinned girl. She stood around 5'6, much taller than Rosalie. She had light brown eyes and light brown hair with purple streaks headed. She also had on light lipstick. She wore similar makeup to her sister. Four dot markings on each cheek and has two violet streaks across her right eyebrow. She was wearing a black leather jacket with a purple velvet shirt underneath with a very unique looking belt it had a giant skull on it and on the side it had purple jewels, she also had different orbs and amulets and even a voodoo doll to the side with sewed red eyes. She wore purple platform boots.

"What's up Freddi ?" Felicia asked her older sister as Freddie said "Check out Rosalie here's design." as Felicia took the book and flipped through it fastly. 

"Pretty sick. What are trying to sell theses outfits around the Isle ?" as Rosalie titled her head. 

She could do that ?

"I can do that ?" she asked as Felicia and Freddie looked at her. "I mean yeah if you open a shop." as Rosalie said "Not like anyone would care to buy this stuff."

"Are you kidding come on, I mean your stuff is alright." Freddie told her. "Thank you." Rosalie told her with a kind smile.

Felicia then smirked getting a mischief idea. She knew Rosalie was easy to manipulative.  

"Do you go to Dragon Hall ?" as Rosalie said "Oh no I go to school to get my crowning, so I can become Queen when the barrier goes down." 

Felicia said "Oh that's a shame, Dragon Hall is in great need of new outfits, and they really need you." as Rosalie smirked to herself.

"Omg really. That would amazing, but there's no way my mommy dearest would let me attend." as Felicia hopped over the counter before landing in front of Rosalie.

Rosalie jolted. Felicia took Rosalie's cheek in her hand. Rosalie could feel her leather glove rub against her cheek. Rosalie blushed. "Are you going to listen to "mommy dearest." your whole life ?"

Rosalie said "Well-" as Felicia slapped her forehead with her other hand "No ! No ! Your answer is no. You princessess love to follow behind dear mom and daddy don't you."

Felicia let go of Rosalie's cheek. "You can't wait for your opportunity, you gotta go ahead and seize it."

"Think about it Rosalie, you could be famous around here."

Rosalie eyes twinkled.

Famous ?

That's all she could dream off is being famous. "How about we let the cards decide ?" as Freddie who had went back to work said "Fel-" as Felicia cut her off and turned to her sister before she said quietly "I can hustle this princess, she's asking for it, plus you said do things that make me feel better."

"It's been years since what has happened to Yzla-"  as Felicia said "If you tell me to get over I will zap you." as Freddie huffed, "Fine, do what you want, but I don't think Yzla would want to see you like this."

"She couldn't cause Auradon didn't give her the choose to." as Felicia gave a smirk to her big sister and to convey to Rosalie that they were having a peaceful conversation she kissed her cheek.

"Come Rose." as Felicia took Rosalie hand before they went towards the back of Arcade. 

Felicia turn off the OPEN sign to CLOSE. Rosalie awed. She sat down at the wooden dark purple and red and green chair with a matching desk. "I've never had my future told my cards." as Felicia said "Let me tell you, it's worth wild."

Felicia eyes glimmered to their purple with skulls. Rosalie was in awe. She picked up one of the cards. Felicia saw it. "Ooo." as Rosalie said "Ooo in a good way or bad way."

Felicia flipped the card around so she could see it. It was of her in a kingdom, and it was of her with a couple of clothes and clothing racks around her.

"What does it mean ?" Rosalie asked as Felicia said "You will live your dream in, in a place you've never been before." as Rosalie questioned that. "Can I pick another ?" as Felicia held her hand out to her.

Rosalie gave her three coins. Rosalie picked another. "You've got luck princess."

She showed her a dress. It was a wedding one. Rosalie glimmered, she fan herself with her free hand. "A wedding dress ?!" her cheeks were hot pink. "Somebody wants you for the rest of their life." 

Rosalie grinned, she wonder who her secret admire was and possible the boy or girl of her dream. Rosalie was bisexual anyway. She hadn't meet anyway else on the Isle. She didn't even have any friends.

Well there was Devon, but Rosalie had just meet her a couple of hours ago. Was Devon her forever.

Nah.

"One more ?" Felicia asked. Rosalie nodded and handed her three more coins. She did what she had did before. Felicia didn't say anything.

"What ?! What does it show ?" as Felicia said "Something will cause you to lose your forever, a deadly event."

Rosalie felt a pit go in her stomach.  A deadly event  ?

Would they get into a fight ?

Would they run-away

Would her lover die ?

Rosalie huffed. That was enough cards for her, for today.

After speaking with Felicia and Freddie and taking her photos, she headed home. It was close to dark.

She didn't mean for time to fly by that fast. Her mother must have been worried sick.

She made sure to pick up the pace. While doing so she bumped into someone. It cause both of them to hit the ground and for Rosalie's bags to go over the ground.

She rubbed her forehead, she looked to see the other person rub there's.

"Watch yourself would you." as Rosalie said "From what I can gather from five seconds ago, you bumped into me." 

All she could make out about her that she had beautiful blue hair and hazel eyes, plus she wore a leather skirt and platform boots. Rosalie rubbed her eyes.

Before she knew it the girl had left her walking away.

Rosalie squinted her eyes while she was getting up. She wouldn't forget that sassy voice, ever, she made sure not too.

Encase her and the girl ever ran into one another again, Rosalie would have some choice words for her.

Rosalie rolled her eyes "Peasant." she muttered. She strutted down the alley of The Isle. She flipped her hair as her eyes went to their red hearts as she smirked wickedly.

Her mother was right, Everybody in her present was obstacle and Rosalie would knock them all down like dominions.

She would keep her promise to her mother, and be the most meanest  most fabulous most intelligent, most ruthless  queen

To ever sit on the throne of Wonderland.
