Video for all
[Music starts.
Priscilla is sitting at the dinner table poking brussels sprouts with her fork. She can hear screaming and fighting in the next room. Glass breaks, the walls shake. She gets up from her seat and peeks through the crack in the door just in time to see her father holding her mom against the wall with one hand on her neck, the other is wound up for a punch which lands breaking her mom's nose. Her mom falls to the floor, wiping the blood from her face surprisingly calm. The two lock eyes and her mom says, "Go to your room."
She runs to her room and stays there for the rest of the night. The next morning she goes to school in a daze. After school, she walks with her bookbag through the Hellfire club past the clouds of smoke and laughing businessmen in suits and the women dancing. They don't acknowledge her and she doesn't acknowledge them as she makes her way to the back where her parents are talking with Tessa and Selene. She sits on the steps and does her homework as they plan world domination. She doesn't pay attention much but her father verbally abuses all three women. The adults spend the night talking, drinking, and plotting. She eventually falls asleep there but wakes up in her bed the next morning. It's the weekend, finally. She follows her mom out and rides to Magneto's house in their car. The two plot mutant domination and drink wine together while Priscilla plays by herself in the next room.
Cut to her working with her mom and the other professors at the Hellfire Academy. When she gets home she shows her father what she can do. She touches his arm and his eyes widen. He's never felt a power surge like that before. He's stronger and faster than before with seemingly no external stimuli. He pats her head and takes her with him to his meetings from then on.
She sits quietly in her father's meetings until things escalate then he reaches for her hand for a quick charge before he brutally beats his enemies to death. She's picked up from school by various henchmen of Hellfire club and the Brotherhood who all supercharge their powers before fighting. Montage of her being an accomplice in murder, kidnapping, and brutal violence mixed in with montage of her parents fighting and making up and fighting and making up and fighting again until finally after years in this cycle her mother snaps. After the snap, her mother stops protecting him against telepathic control which frees Priscilla. Whenever she doesn't want to do something, she brings Andi over and he tells him to do what Priscilla wants. She's no longer dragged to "meetings."
Priscilla's about 17 at this point and she sees her mother developing the poison that will weaken her father enough to kill him. Her mother makes no attempt to hide this from her. She tells her that after she finishes she'll become the Black King and tie the Hellfire Club to the Brotherhood once and for all before any more innocent mutants can be killed. She also tells her that the club is full of backstabbing people who are out for personal gains and that if someone does succeed in killing her that Priscilla will become the new Black King and that the movement is counting on them.
The rest of the video is her writing songs, practicing with her band, and playing at the Hellfire Club.
After the song ends, she's standing in front of her dad in their dining room with the drummer from the band who is sporting a tambourine. She's using a ukelele and sings a heartfelt song. The camera fades out as her dad beats the drummer to death, she tries to pull him off but only makes him stronger. Replace Nightosphere with Hellfire Club.]
