Over on the other side of Uniclandia, a dark, black castle made of rose thorns and black onyx stood under dark, charcoal clouds, and faint rumbling noises were heard in the distance. The bushes of thorns surrounding the castle, the path beyond it paved with dead flowers. A blue butterfly flew passed the paved road, and the butterfly's wings turned dark gray, and couldn’t fly no more. 

But what was inside the castle, was the center of all darkness… 

“The Uniclandian prophecy is happening now. Rose has arrived, she is going to take everything that I’ve worked my entire life for. This universe should be under my royal name!”, Queen Spina shrieked, placing her tall, black beehive hair into place. Her dark red lips forming into an evil grin, her eyes filled with hatred, jealousy, and rage gazing out her window scared a small rabbit away, before the darkness could catch up to the poor rabbit. “Flames, tell me, I am the only monarch fit for this role.”, Queen Spina demanded. A black onyx wolf appeared with fire opal eyes, appeared at her feet, and the wolf howled as her answer. “You, my pet, are fierce, strong, a fighter!” Flames growled, then grinned showing dark gray, deadly sharp teeth. “You are the one to assist me to claim what’s MINE!” Flames barked loudly, then howled. “Good. Now that you believe this can be accomplished, we will move forward with our plan. Right, my little flame?”, Queen Spina purred, wickedly. The queen observed her throne room, admiring the sharp stone walls, the shiny jet black floor, and her long length mirror, also made of her thorns. The wolf barked again, then she answered as if she knows what Flames was saying. 

“Yes, whatever it takes. Even if it kills her. What’s mine is mine! I am finished waiting, but it’s time, little flame, that I fulfill what I’m meant to do… shatter her future. After all, it’s not my life that will be taken during this battle….. It’s Rose.” Flames barked several times, then unleashed an earn piercing howl. Queen Spina watched a dying red rose through her window, and chuckled. “Oh, she doesn’t know what’s approaching. No clue at all.” Queen Spina dragged her long nails across the window pane, making a chilling screech. “Hm-hm-hm.”, the queen laughed under her breath. “What’s mine is mine, and no one, takes that from me.. ever, because they will pay the price.”, she whispered. “They pay the price…”
