REINCARNATED AS THE ANTAGONIST
Afterlife
Murmurs of chatter fills the room.
The sky is dark and heavy rain keeps pouring down.
In front of the villagers was a large guillotine.
Then an important figure walks up onto the podium.
King Lucian
Fellow villagers, we have gathered today to watch...
King Lucian
The execution of Princess Seraphine.
The villagers cheered with joy and happiness.
King Lucian
But first we shall hear the reason of her execution.
King Lucian
Serenity, Azriel, please come onto the podium.
A graceful figure and a man with eyes as red as blood walks up to the podium.
Her eyes were bloodshot and tears kept streaming down her face.
Serenity
Please...please don't do this!
King Lucian
Serenity, this is for justice.
King Lucian
*turns to the guards*
King Lucian
Bring out the prisoner!
The doors at the back of the podium opened and guards held a fragile figure, forcing her to walk.
The figure had her hands in chains and she looked down, unable to meet anyone's eye.
The guards threw her onto the floor as the villagers watched.
Seraphine
Please don't do this!
The figure begged for mercy.
King Lucian
*looks down at her*
Seraphine
*turns to Azriel*
Seraphine
Azriel, tell him I didn't do it!
Seraphine
*turns to Serenity*
Her pleading face turned into anger.
Seraphine
Shut up, foul animal!
Azriel
If anyone should be called that, it us you, filthy creature.
King Lucian
*turns to villagers*
King Lucian
The reason why we are here tonight...
King Lucian
Is that this girl,
King Lucian
*jabs finger at Seraphine's head*
King Lucian
Poisoned the King of Anqueste!
Gasps of shock and disbelief echoed in the room.
Seraphine
I didn't do it!I didn't do it!I didn't do it!I didn't do it!I didn't do it!I didn't do it!
Villager 1
Just kill her already!
Villager 2
No one needs you, Princess!
Seraphine
Shut up! Shut up!
A thick silence fell upon the room.
King Lucian
Guards, carry out the execution now!
Seraphine
I'm innocent! No no no!
She was put in place on the guillitone.
Seraphine
Azriel, believe me!
Azriel
Guards, release the string.
The sharp blade cut through the prisoner as she let out a shrill scream.
Alyssa

Alyssa
Even though she is the vilianness,
Alyssa

Librarian
Why are you slacking off again?
Librarian

Alyssa

Alyssa
"Adults nowadays"??
Alyssa waits for the train at the train station. The place was almost deserted.
Alyssa
(I'll just sleep straight away...)
Alyssa
Where is this train?
Suddenly, there two hands appeared behind her and pushes her onto the tracks.
Alyssa
*surprised* What the-
The tunnel on the right lit up and the sound of moving tracks got louder.
Her feet was trapped between the tracks.
