Queens of the Past

**Kimberly AJ:** Aiko, are you all right?

**Aiko Kikyuune:** Ugh........ I feel so dizzy after doing too many duties in one day.

**Kimberly:** Let me guess. One of too many of those things must be songwriting nonstop, that's what I'm trying to do.

**Aiko:** Yeah, but I haven't finished some of them. I've also been playing all kinds of sports and building machines according to the people's preferences... \*faints\* Why me...?

**Kimberly:** Hang in there, Aiko, I'll take you to Prima. \*picks Aiko up on the waist and puts her left arm on my shoulders\* She's really good at making sweet foods back in her house.

**Prima:** I can see this backyard is looking pretty good in the usual way. Oh-- why, hello there Kimberly, I see that you brought Aiko with you. Is she OK?

**Kimberly:** She told me that she's so dizzy for doing too many duties in one day.

**Aiko:** \*groaning\* Well, I was songwriting nonstop and have been playing all kinds of sports and building machines according to the people's preferences... now my fans are getting worried about me...

**Prima:** Just a few deep breaths, my dear, I just made you one of the tastiest baked sweets I think you may like. Care for a blueberry cheesecake? I know you really like sweets as one of your likes completing your personality.

**Aiko:** Thanks, ma'am, I've always wanted blueberries to be blue.

**Kimberly:** As a complete difference, I'd like a white chocolate red rose pop because I've never made my own one in years since I was a Girl Scout on the task of candy-making.

**Prima:** Why, certainly, I just had purchased a lot of sweet stuff using the buried treasure chest of coins I rediscovered. I'm saving some for my husband Tonio because he is my very special someone~

**Kimberly:** Now, out of all the queens in the whole world, there is one who used to have a lot of pets in her life.

**Prima:** Is it Queen Victoria?

**Aiko:** How did you two know her?

**Kimberly:** Yep, it sure is~; and we both have been sharing the same connection in one of the same days.

**Prima:** There's more I can say about her; she used to have her own pets and most of them were dogs. Passing the two centuries, I think her love of animals somewhat tried to cheer her up even in such hard times since the tragedy amongst her husband Albert. I don't think it was their first son Bertie's fault for it.

**Aiko:** She did, because of her incoming insanity right into her brain.

**Kimberly:** I should've told her to calm down if I'd go back in time with a real time-traveling machine for real. No pretending, seriously...

**Prima:** Hmm, I guess I'll take that into consideration. Anyway, if she blamed him for the same reason I mentioned, I'll tell her to take it back. Why was she a sad sack in her later life?

**Aiko:** No kidding that nature had caused such a rampage of making dreadful bacteria no one can allow. I bet he should've been forgiven for what he was doing.

**Kimberly:** But she wasn't the only queen to have lost the love of her life. There was the Pharaoh Cleopatra who loved the Roman Emperor Alexander. I suppose she had her own problems that couldn't be handled, like when she lost him in battle, she used a snake to commit suicide.

**Aiko:** Yikes!

**Prima:** Oh, my~ I can see she had her own distress. What kind of snake did she use?

**Kimberly:** It was firstly thought that it was a poisonous snake, but it's actually a venomous one she used.

**Aiko:** How dreadful!

**Kimberly:** Just like Romeo and Juliet as characters, I've also found out that Cleopatra and Alexander committed suicide by different methods, you know? For some reason, I know the difference between poison and venom. One of the writers typed in that venom is much worse than poison.

**Prima:** Well, since I have heard all that, I can pay tribute and homage to all the queens of the past. Still, there is just one living, so I'm determined to sing for all the queens past and present. Can I have the spotlight, please?

**Aiko:** I.... I-I might separate different kinds of snakes, b-but I don't like venomous ones!

**Kimberly:** The safest snakes are neither poisonous nor venomous, though. Perhaps you would like to see what's inside them?

**[Prima]**

When I was apprenticed in London
I went to see my dear
The candles all were burning
The moon shone bright and clear
I knocked upon her window
To ease her of her pain
She rose up to let me in
Then barred the door again
I like your well behavior
And this I often say
I cannot rest contented
When I am far away
The roads they are so muddy
We cannot walk about
So roll me in your arms my love
And blow the candles out
Your father and your mother
In yonder room do lie
A-hugging one another
So why not you and I?
A-hugging one another
Without a fear or doubt
So roll me in your arms my love
And blow the candles out
I prithee speak more softly
Of what we have to do
Lest that our noise of talking
Should make our pleasure rue
The streets they are so nigh, love
The people walk about
They may peep in and spy, love
So blow the candles out
And yes, my husband's in my heart
He's with me, love will sprout
We hope you past queens rest in peace
I blow the candles out
**Aiko:** You know, Kimberly, since you've shown me so many snake types, I like the corn snake best because it's one of the safest kinds in the world. And by the way, Prima's voice surely sounds so beautiful when she sings her songs~

**Kimberly:** Does it? Safe snakes are very nice for all who really like animals. I bet all the departed queens will accept them. What is the true legacy of life?
