                                                           I've pondered every possible choice, however despair awaited us in all of them.
                                                                                     You gave me such an important lecture;
                   
                                                                                          "Now nobody will have to die!"


                                                                                                            *

It had been quite some time after the fall of King Stephan, a while since both, the Kingdom and the Moor had joined together as an "alliance". And while everything had been peaceful until now and she even had a small little "family" to call her own, there were still moments where Maleficent couldn't help but feel consumed by a deep sadness, the betrayal of Stephan still lasted on her, even though she had gotten over it a bit, at least. It was on moments where she couldn't take it when she would walk around the border to the Kingdom, always in deep thoughts.

Today was nothing other, she had left Diaval and Aurora in the Moors to fool around or talk or whatever they did to spend their time together. However, when she continued to circle around a certain place she felt as if something was off, already preparing herself to use her wings to lift herself off the ground to either flee or get rid of a possible enemy. When her eyes finally fell onto the reason for the unsettling feeling she had felt she let out a relieved sigh. Only a Human, she thought, taking a careful step towards the unconscious figure only to see a rather handsome young man with [s/c] sking that seemed soft to touch, [h/c] messy hair that seemed just as soft -if not even softer- as his skin and odd clothing, well at least odd for the clothing she had seen.

He wore a black, tight shirt underneath a brown vest that was decorated with golden patterns, on top of that he laid on top of a now torn [f/c] cape that covered his left arm, but from what she saw the cape was colored darker around said arm, so she assumed he had been bleeding badly. Along with the already mentioned clothing he wore simple [second f/c] pants, but those were secured with parts of what appeared to be a golden armor. All in all he seemed as if he was royalty, and as if he had been blessed with good looks. And a plain one on top of that. the faerie thought, trying her best to not get nervous; the last human she had found had been Stephan, and in the end all she had received was a horrid betrayal from his side.

Uncertain of what to do she thought about calling Diaval just so he could carry this man away, but then again what if he awoke in the meanwhile and ran into the Moor? She couldn't risk having a potential threat running around her homeland like this. Still in deep thoughts the faerie only realised the male had awoken when he had slowly stood up, almost falling over again. Coughing horribly and obviously bleeding underneath his hair the male looked like a wreck right now. It was when blue eyes met with a warm gaze shining from stunning [e/c] eyes that she took a step backwards, obviously startled. Quickly regaining composure the female looked at the male with a neutral expression. "Who are you and what is your business here?" she questioned in a demanding tone.

Opening his mouth the reply, the [h/c] man was merely able to let out a dry cough. Shaking his head he cleared his throat, and despite attempting to hide it, Maleficent could clearly see he was in pain. "[Male!Name]. [Male!Name] [Last Name], Prince of the Kingdom of Arcania." he stated, slowly so his throat wouldn't burn all too much. His voice was cracking and dry, but the faerie could still hear that under normal circumstances he would've most likely sounded a lot nicer. "That only answered half of my Question." she sternly stated before unnoticabley taking another step backwards. Tumbling backwards himself the man was barely able to hold himself up against a tree. "I... came here... to warn... the King..." he stated, his vision blurring for a moment as his throat burned unbearably.

For a second he could have sworn to have seen a shocked, no, upset expression upon the womans face. That is until it returned to it's usual expression. "The King is dead." she stated bluntly before the male looked at her in shock. "...Who...Who is ruling over this Kingdom now?" he inquired and the Faerie hesitated for a second, she didn't want to pull Aurora into this, but if this man really had business with the Countries Ruler then she had no other choice. "His Daughter, Princess- I mean, Queen Aurora." she spoke, the [h/c] male nodding weakly. "I wanted to warn this Kingdom about Arcania; my Father, King Ivan has been consumed by despisal for King Stephan, he called him weak and has began to plot taking over this Kingdom just so it wouldn't have to be under such a weaklings control." the man imitated a deeper voice as he sighed.

These news shocked the woman, not only because she never knew of other Kingdoms thoughts over this Country, but also because someone was planning to simply take over the control, and the way it sounded he was willing to start a war for this. The shock took over her and for a second she tumbled herself, ironically this caused the Prince to rush, or well in his case limp, to her side to gently help her stand normally again. As his warm hand gently rested on her upper Arm the Faerie wanted to break away from the Contact, however, the surprise of these news was still overwhelming and she found herself unable to move a lot. "Are you alright?" the worried tone made her feel bad, this Stranger was probably one of the kindest Humans, of course not as kind Aurora but still, and she had thought about simply getting rid of him.

"Aa, yes. You may let go of me, please." she firmly stated before the male noticed he was still touching her Arm. Quickly pulling away he took a step forward and made awkward motions with his Hands while apologizing profusely, and if her eyes didn't lie to her she could have sworn to see a small blush on his cheeks. To his adorable reaction she couldn't help but smirk a little, so he was easily embarrassed? Well this could turn out to be fun. As she saw that other than his hands his entire arms were covered in metal she was almost glad he had only touched her upper Arm not just tried to help her by letting her lean on him. "Gladly enough, the Armor you are wearing hasn't burnt me yet, so I guess there is no need in apologizing, you, after all, did only mean well." she simply stated before the male blinked.

And then she received a reaction she would have never expected from the man. His [e/c] orbs widened in amazement before he eagerly leaned forward, only to make her realise how much taller he actually was. "Ooh! Are you a Faerie? I heard Fairy Tales of your kind before! That would explain your Wings? Can you really fly? Aa, that's so amazing!" he exclaimed, his voice suddenly sounding like a excited little boy, despite still sounding a little hoarse. "...I- Yes, I can indeed fly. And yes, your assumption is correct, although I am a little surprised, how come you heard those tales? I thought outside of this Kingdom nobody knew about any mystical Creatures." she slowly spoke, obviously puzzled. For a second she couldn't help but think she had just met a Puppy that had been turned into an adult human, but who could blame her for such a thought? The Prince had an expression that reminded a lot of a little Dog receiveing delicious food.

"Haha, I knew it! Aa, as a young Boy I never had any friends to spend time with, my younger Brothers despised me because they wanted the throne and my Parents didn't really care for me other than making sure I was healthy and prepared in case I need to become the King," the [h/c] haired man began before looking at the ground with a thoughtful frown, despite obviously being in pain he looked as if he actually enjoyed being awake right now. So either he was a weird man to like being in Pain, or he really had been lonely for a long time, if he enjoyed talking to someone so much, especially considering his condition. It almost made her feel even worse to hear him say those words; especially since he obviously must have been a strong person, to still keep on going and still be kind despite never having received the loving care of anyone else but himself.

"I see. By the way, don't you want to do something against these?" she tried to sound rather cold, but apparently he didn't mind, not even when she pointed at his completely dirtied and bloodied form. "Aa, yes. Could you perhaps tell me where I can clean myself? Is there Water anywhere near?" he questioned before she sighed, He's like a kid. Perhaps an Idiot. she thought to herself, unable to contain a small chuckle when she saw the male struggle with something around his neck that seemed to hold his cape. That is until she realised what he was doing, "...Why are you taking off your clothing?" she questioned, eyebrows raising in slight irritation. Dropping off the first pieces of Armor the male gave a small grin, "I read that Faeries burn if they get in touch with metal, and you yourself stated something similiar before. So I won't take any risks." he stated as if it was the most obvious thing in this world.

For a second she was reminded of the past, shuddering a little before sighing, "Aren't these," she pointed at the pieces of Armor he'd dropped, "incredibly expensive?" she questioned, once again keeping a neutral expression. "They are indeed, but they are also a proof that I am part of a royal family, and considering my own Brothers were the ones to attempt to end my life, I assume my Father sent them after me. Which means I am stripped off my Status; so I won't need these anyways." he explained, once again acting as if it all was completely normal and occured everyday. With a frown the female watched him take off every piece of metal he wore; even his boots. "And your shoes?" she broke the silence once again, confused. Was he really willing to go around with bare feet and risking to hurt his feet terribly, only to prevent to hurt her?

Shaking her head, Maleficent walked past the [h/c] haired Prince; a almost invisible smile on her lips. She had been afraid he might be trying to fool her, but as of now it was almost impossible to call him "evil" or even remotely bad. "I'd rather lose my feet than hurt someone who obviously is an important person." and this statement made her stop in her tracks, almost as if she was frozen. Not even turning around she questioned his words, "What makes you assume I am important?" it wasn't as if she thought lowly of herself, in fact, she knew that she was important, it just made the woman curious as of why the other would think of it. "Well, I don't know, but I doubt that everyone has such big Wings. Also the way you behave and the fact you radiate a mysterious yet elegant Aura makes me certain of this." he stated, finally dropping the last piece of metal to the ground.

With a small smile, only a faint one but a smile nonetheless, Maleficent slowly began to walk. "Follow me, you need to rest for a bit." she merely stated before continuing her way, the male following in some safe distance. "Say, why exactly were you planning on betraying your own family anyways?" the Faerie suddenly asked, her interest peaked as she remembered his reason of appearing. "I don't think it is right to forcefully take control over other lifes, in fact, I think that a good King is one who lives for his people, not for his own sake." the male stated before contuing to speak. "If I have to be honest, I think my Father is a horrible King; he isn't interested in our people at all, all he cares about is wealth and power. That is why I came here; I had hoped that I could warn the King, err... I mean, the Queen, and get them prepared to defend themselves against my Father, I even thought that if I had too I'd be willing to fight against my Father himself." the man explained, all the while doing gestures with his hands, a thing that actually made him look cute.

"That's very brave of you." came the honest opinion from the female before she continued to walk, only then realising she had stopped to look at him, and although she didn't see him she knew he was becoming embarrassed just from a small compliment, simply because he was beginning to trip over his own words. "A-Aa, w-well you see, it's just... I-I, I, I, um... I, I, well... err- uh, I j-just, I just t-think-" the way he stuttered out the smallest words reminded the woman of a little kid that didn't know how to reply to a question.  "I just think it’s wrong of my Father to behave like this!" the man finally blurted out, obviously flustered. Apparently he wasn’t used to kind words in the slightest, a fact that amused Maleficent to a certain degree and at the same time upset her, such a kind person deserved to hear only good things about themselves, and he obviously didn’t.

"It is indeed, but don't worry, I will talk to Aurora about this and we'll make sure everything will turn out alright, got that?" as her question didn't receive a reply the Faerie turned around only to find the male knocked out cold by his injuries. She would have been worried, but from the way his heartbeat was at a almost normal pace, although she could have sworn it had been beating a little bit faster when she checked, and he didn't seem to actually be unconscious but instead asleep. With a small frown Maleficent simply used her Magic to carry the male along, Prince [Male!Name] of Arcania, huh? More like little Kid in a matured body. she thought, chuckling to herself before sighing. But he has a kind heart and that's what's important. she thought again before silently contuing her way. "Perhaps you shouldn't have exhausted yourself so much, after all you are injured quiet heavily." she mumbled towards the sleeping male before laughing a little. "You sure are a Hero to risk your life for a Kingdom you never visited, but you're also an Idiot." she continued before chuckling once more, "Idiot Hero."
Just a short Drabble, simply because wow, it's been a week and I am still greatly in love with this movie.
And I never think of a Movie over a week. So this must mean something.

We don't talk about how much I failed at this one and how horrible it is. It's 2 AM and I am so damn tired but I wanted to write this down simply because I have no reason and feel bored.

Also, Elle Fanning is amazing.
And we all know Angelina Jolie was the queen anyways.

This is all I have to say now because otherwise I will just list a bajillion reasons as of why this movie is flawless.
