Callisto Point of View

"You can't be serious!"

"No you are not" I spoke up mumbling to myself in utter speechlessness. I shook my head in horror thinking about the most terrifying sentence I had ever heard.

No, he must be joking.

Or, he must be teasing me.

Of course he is. Otherwise, there is no reason for him to come up with such an absurd idea.

"I am actually, son." He said smiling proudly at me. The glare I threw at him was so much powerful that if I'm really a God, he would be burning in hell fire.

"There is no way I am having her work for me." I concluded, ending the ridiculous topic. Theois just shrugged and took a sip of her whiskey.

"If you sit and think carefully about it, you will realize that I'm right. She is the best person to give you a positive fame and let me tell you this that even best of the best PR companies and officials cannot compete with her." He explained, pouring me a glass of whisky as well.

I gulped it down in one swig and picked up the whole bottle to empty it in one go. The incredulous idea he is presenting is nothing but a suicide for me.

How can he even think of making Cuckoo my PR personnel? She will make the whole country crazy for me, no doubt.

I hate to say it myself but Cuckoo does have that influence over people enough to bring them into a spell. But she is not a normal human being. She is a crazy girl who is harm to human nature.

And to mafia like me!

"I agree with him, Mr. Mancini. The brief moments of conversation we had the last time, she proved to be the most unexpected type of person I've ever met." The king butted into the conversation as Theois offered the couple some wine.

The Queen who was quiet till now, nodded her head in agreement with her husband and for the first time, I saw her smile genuinely. Till this moment, I had only seen her smile either slyly or very mockingly at people but thinking of that crazy girl, she is actually smiling softly.

Have these two gone mad?

"She made you two kneel before me! You should be thinking of ways to behead her." I exclaimed. Am I the only one who is sane in this group?

I feel so because till now whoever had met Cuckoo started getting very fond of her. They enjoy her company.

"And that is why we suggest her. That girl is the first and maybe the last person who can make us kneel and still stay alive. It was the first time I believed in something that is completely illogical and impossible and it all because of that girl. For a moment there, I actually thought you could be a real God that day. That is the power of her innocence and words." The queen spoke with a very loving smile on her painted lips.

She was in her long gown with a silver hat. At one look, you can say she is a very lovely and caring person but once you get to know her, you will understand how tyrant she is. She always has this deviousness oozing out from her eyes like a natural waterfall.

Knowing that the very crafty Queen took a liking for an innocent crazy girl is surprising to me.

"She is the perfect person to even make a serial killer believe in non violence." She continued but suddenly her smile turned from soft to sly as she eyed me from top to bottom. "But I disagree with your Theois about making her you PR personnel." She raised her elegant brow and wiggled it in a gesture of inappropriate suggestion.

Okay! What is wrong with them?

What does she mean she disagrees with Theois?

Both Theois and the King narrowed their eyes towards the Queen who is very actively taking part in plotting my life as it is a puppet show.

"No matter what your suggestions are, I am not going anywhere near her. I'm already trying to get her out of my life and here you people are trying to make my life even harder. Just tie me to a chair and hit me with iron rods until I die, I appreciate that. But keeping me alive beside that mad girl is never happening." I announced, not caring about the honorifics to the royal couple.

I have enough shit in my life. I don't need the master of shit beside me continuously. No thanks!

"I wish we had another son, honey." The Queen sighed regretfully and looked at the King with a sorrowful face. "I would've enjoyed pairing him with the lovely girl." I scoffed at her suggestion of going far enough to invite trouble into the family.

Why would a royal family need Cuckoo? She is just... just... Cuckoo!

"Why, you were against the idea of having another child after our second daughter. You disregarded all the advances I made to get you pregnant the fourth time." The king just shrugged casually at the Queen to which she sighed regretfully yet again.

"And that is why I was thinking maybe, Mr. Mancini here can fulfill that wish." She probed in stealthily. I gaped at what she said when I realized the meaning behind her words.

SHE WANTS ME TO MARRY CUCKOO?!

"You must be kidding me. You want me to marry Albina Rae White the crazy Cuckoo who can kill anyone without spilling a drop of bleed and who can eat anyone's brain without even opening the head? She is a bad news. You people met her for only once and that is why you think she is cute but she not." I gritted enunciating each and every word to make them understand that whatever they are speaking is nonsense.

Suddenly something struck me and I turned to them and cleared my throat, "Well... she is a little cute but she is not sane. She deserves to be in mental hospital. She needs a whole team of doctors to dissect her and experiment about the orientation of her species. She is not normal and I am not getting anywhere near her. That is final."

When I was a child, I wasn't fortunate enough to enjoy my childhood so when I started making something out of my life and started earning money, the first thing I did was watching the Disney movies and shows that all the children used to.

No matter what my age was but I just wanted to fulfill the wish of being a normal kid for few moments and that was when I watched a series of movies called 'Halloween Town'.

I had watched that movie long back when I was fifteen or sixteen and again I watched it recently few days ago as I was researching about the origin of Cuckoo like species. I watched all the magical movies to find a hint or a clue about her origin.

It was embarrassing to watch Disney movies for a man in her thirties but I can bear embarrassment not Cuckoo.

Even after watch five witch TV series, seventy fantasy movies, close to thirty fantasy series, ten Disney princess movies, I did not find any similarity between all those creatures and Cuckoo.

She a little mix of all of them.

She is a Vampire who doesn't feed on blood but on human intellect brains.

She is a witch of words.

She is an innocent Goblin with not an immortal life but with an immortal madness.

She is a dwarf in understanding.

She is a brainless Barbie doll.

She is a dragon spitting not fire but utter stupidity.

She is a beauty with beast within.

She is the authentic version of Annabelle.

She is a Cyclopes with a blind eye of faith.

She is a pretty looking Ogre.

She is a angel with an Devil like heart.

In short, she is a hybrid of all those bad creatures which are considered the most dangerous. And that is why I couldn't find her origin species.

I so desperately want to name her kind of species!

"It would be good if you give a serious thought about marrying Albina." Theois broke my thoughts with his unwanted review.

"Marriage? Who is marrying me?" I heard the one voice which I do not want to hear in my life time, walking through the open door.

No, not her. Please don't be the person I'm thinking about!

Please!

"Rae dear, thanks for coming here even after a short notice." Theois grinned widely followed by the royal couple. Their faces are literally lit up like the brightness of the cosmos.

They were looking at her with such awestruck adoration that she is the life of the very cosmos; as if she is sun to our solar system.

Heck that!

"No problem Uncle Odell. But whom am I marrying?" She asked curiously with such innocence that the first timers with her would believe that she is an angel teleported directly from heaven. But I know better.

The Queen yet again smiled slyly at me and turned towards the new unnamed specie with a grin. "We are thinking about how great it would be if you, the great devotee, marry your Lord." She presented me with her elegant hand gesture with a festive smile.

Yay! Clap for me for being a buffoon in this!

"That's impossible. I cannot marry, My Lord. Never." She exasperated loudly, throwing herself on her knees before me and started to slap her face pleading for my forgiveness in the place of those ignorant human who came up with such a delirious stupid idea.

Is this the first time she is in agreement about something with me?

Are we really on the same page in this matter?

Is she really not interested in this idiotic idea?

WOW! Am I finally being lucky?!
