The Death of a Tyrant and a Hero

The British caught me.
I’ve been sent to St. Helena, forced to live here for the rest of my life.
My stomach’s killing me. The doctor says I have cancer.
It doesn’t matter though. I’m forced here now.
I might as well rot and die.
“Bury me on the banks of the Seine, among the French people I have loved so much.”

Imprisoned

I can’t believe we lost.
Waterloo… the place that ended it all.
The majority of my men are dead.
It’s time to end the empire…

I have word that I’m to be imprisoned again.
Good! Let them take me.
I’ve done all I can for her.
I hope she can make it without me.

The final battle

Waterloo…
This might be my final battle…
Almost all of our men are killed…
If we retreat, we’ve lost this war.
If we don’t, then we’ll all die.

I guess this is the end.
This is going to end it all.
If I should die because of this fate
bury me alongside the French.

I’ll do it for you

You’ve given me a son,
a little pride and joy.
You two are all I need in life.
As I’m out in the war,
fighting for France,
I’ll do it for you
and our complete romance.

Getting it annulled

No son?
No more marriage!
I need someone to take the throne…
and this lack of which, I don’t condone.
Leave my house and never come back,
you little worm…
before I have a heart attack.

A New Emperor

I’ve made it back to my homeland!
Sweet, sweet France.
I love these people…
It looks like everyone’s still here…
Back to my position as General!
…Wait, I have a better idea.
I’ve done so much for this country.
This country owes me…
That’s it! I’m claiming the throne and becoming emperor!

This Cursed Island

I can’t take it anymore!
I’ve been on this island for months…
My country is falling.
We’re losing this war…
All because of this cursed island!
Exiled here! Of all places!
Hm..? Oh… A way out.
Goodbye, you adolescent worms!

A tyrant!

This man is a tyrant!
He’s destroyed our homes!
He’s killed our families!
He’s slain our armies!
Our country is falling…
All thanks to that one man.
That one little man!
I’ll make sure his people burn.

In his prime

The world is mine!
No one can stop me.
France is on top and no one dares hurt us.

I’ve become the most powerful
Most dedicated
Most decorated
Emperor that the worlds ever seen!

Frenchman Views

He’s helping us.
The man who stole the crown
he’s helping us.

He could take us down any second.
Except… he’s helping us.

The war is going smoothly.
Our debts are paid off.

This man saved us.

A letter to mother

Dear Mother,

It’s been years since I’ve seen you.
How have you and father been?
I got word of my work here.
After years and years in the Academy,
I’m finally a soldier.

I hope to see you at graduation.
I want nothing more than to see you there
and fight for this beautiful country.

A mother’s love knows no bounds

The world is so cold.

People only want what’s best for them.
I only want what’s best for little Napoleon..
I had to do it.
I had to sleep with the head.
I had to define myself.
It was the only way to get him accepted.

Now he’s passing through the academy with flying colors.
My trade off was worth it

My beloved son is going to become an amazing soldier.

Different eyes

The eyes of one man are different than someone else’s.
A complete stranger speaks of something dire.
“She slept with someone” Is all I can hear from his frantic speech.
It was explained many times over, though what I heard was all the same.
Everyone left my mind. Everyone left my soul.
The stranger’s words were daggers lunging into me.
“We need to talk” Is the only thing I can build the guts to say.
Soon after I hear the words again, even though it’s explained by someone I know.
The words sprang into my mind again. “She’s with someone else.”
However, trembles through her speech tell me something.
She’s innocent here. She didn’t want it to happen.
I wish I’d realized it sooner… All I accomplished was making us both feel more alone.

Memorable Day

Memorable day?
How cliché.
I have tons of those days stowed away.

Nice summer day, microphone and controller wrapped in hand.
10 people coming to watch? Fair amount.
Just as our live gaming is about to be announced, a quick change of heart occurs.

Elsie’s online? A quick chat wouldn’t hurt.
Time went by talking to what I see as a beautiful maiden who could easily outshine the sun, and the quick chat forms itself into an hour long conversation. Livestream canceled, but worth it.

That night, all of my feelings come out. Hers as well. Looks like I’ve found someone I call mine.

No Longer Close

It pains me to admit it.
We’re no longer close.
We’ve lost the moments we’ve shared.
We’ve lost the cute nicknames.
Candy and Cookie.
We’ve even lost the memory of our voices.
I’ve tried to stop the drift.
Every day was a struggle, though.
I think it’s time we let go.
Sayonara.
