 * My heart is heavy as I lay this pen, for since Macbeth has occupied the throne I have thought much of Duncan. It is certain that he didn't deserve to die, being the just king that he was. Who would want him dead? The first answer which many would think of is Norway; they have been an enemy of Duncan for quite a long time, but I find it unrealistic that Norway could weasel a murderer into Macbeth's home, a place that should have been very safe. If not Norway, then who else? There is the horrible possibility that many have come to believe which is that Duncan's own sons killed him. However logical that may be, given their rapid flight when the news of Duncan's murder broke, I could not picture either of them killing Duncan, their own father, as he lay asleep, defenseless. No...no...the blame falls on the noble, honorable host, who has now taken Duncan's throne. Yes, it is Macbeth...he has covered his tracks well, too well, killing the servants before they could speak of their innocence and then staging it so that his hands could not be found bloody after Banquo's murder, as Macbeth was busy carving a suckling pig at his kingship party, which I did not attend. No, I go to England. I will confer with Malcolm, we must get that murderous tyrant off the throne! **

=May 3, 1028= =Dear Journal,= =I am very excited at the thought of Macbeth conquering all the battles. I shall have him throw myself a feast when he returns! Nothing less for a king than the finest meat and poultry! I shall drink the finest wine and be pampered like never before! I heard Lady Macbeth is a fine hostess. I think she'll take good care of me while I am drunk. Such a wonderful family. A general that has won all his battles and a wife who is kind and nurturing. I cannot wait!= =Royally yours,= =Duncan=

May 2, 1031 How can you tell if you hit crazy? Because i'm pretty sure i have reached it. I'm seeing things and I feel all weird inside. Somebody needs to help me before I do anything worse that I shall regret. Maybe all I need is a "chaos", which if you don't know is a chocolate taco! Doesn't it sound yummy? Well i'm going to get one so until next time. Love Always Macbeth Jenna Mapes

May 7, 1031 I can't do this anymore, I thought I could but I can't. I had no conscious before but now look at me. I've hit crazy! It is like the guilt is eating me alive. I have to do something but I don't know what to do. ~Confess ~Go on a shopping spree ~Kill myself Lets go with number three. Farewell, it has been a pleasure being queen for like five days. Love Alway Lady Macbeth <3 Jenna Mapes

 * Dear Diary, **
 * My guilt is overcoming me. How can I possibly command a country if I can't even eat dinner with my subjects. Last night I commanded the murder of Banquo. But, he still managed to make an appearance at dinner. Banquo appeared as a ghost and I could not bear the site of him. **
 * He was my one loyal friend that I could trust. But I killed him! How far can I take this? My life is slowly crumbling around me. I have committed the worst of all crimes and I fear there will be more. My madness is becoming me and soon I will fade away. After the witch's meeting I felt so empowered. But now I feel weak and frail to the touch. **
 * I would rather have died in battle as Thane of Glamis than to live as King of Scotland. I once had honor not to long ago, but now I only feel cowardice. Will someone please free me from this madness!? **
 * Sincerely, **
 * King of Scotland, **
 * Macbeth **

Journal Entry #01 I know Macbeth is up to something. He hasen't been acting like himself lately. Macbeth has been on edge for a couple of days now, and King Duncan has turned up dead. Although I am confused about what has been going on, I still think it is interesting how all three prophicies have come true. Macbeth became Thane of Glamis, Thane of Cawdor, and he is now king. Is all of this ironic or has it been planned? Maybe both. The only thing I am completely sure of, is that I will eventually figure out what has happened. It may be days or even years before everything is figured out, but this mystery will be solved. For now, I just want my phrophicies to come true just like Macneth's did.

Dear Journal,

The guilt is killing me. I can barely think straight anymore. I have killed the King of Scotland and my best friend Banquo just so I could become king. However I’m not so sure being king is worth feeling the way I am now. I can’t sleep well because I have been having terrible nightmares. Also I started seeing the bloody ghost of my best friend. I don’t know how much longer I can keep all of this guilt inside me, something has to happen. I don’t know how to stop these ghosts and nightmares from haunting me. I will have to figure out what to do, and I will have to do it quickly.

My Dear Lady,

The battle has been long and hard fought, but finally it's over. Banquo and I destroyed our enemies with ease. I am fine as well. No injuries. But on our way back from the battlefield, Banquo and I encountered 3 witches. They foretold that I would become king and overthrow Duncan. Duncan will be heading to our house when I return, so make sure everything is in order. My Lady, we can become royalty if we kill Duncan. We need to think of a plan to do so. However, that can be thought of later. By the time this reaches you, I should be close to home. I love you my lady. Yours, Macbeth

Dear Duncan, My conscience is torn, for I have killed my friend. I know I cannot give you this letter, but my sleepless nights are getting to me. I wish I could say these things. Yes I wanted to be king but the guilt is great. You were nothing but good to your people and me. You made me Thane of Caudor. Every time I hear a knock on the door I fear I have been caught, found out. A life that was not mine to take, the life of a friend for that matter. For selfish reasons, I am sorry.

Sincerely, Macbeth

Chelsea Smith

Dear Journal, I just got word that the murders I hired have killed Banquo. I feel horrible about having my good friend killed. The guilt is almost too great to bear. I am scared too, Fleance got away. I do not know where he is. I hope nobody finds out what I have done. I am having trouble keeping it together. Tonight at the celebration for me becoming King I kept seeing Banquo! I knew he was not there… He could not have been, but I saw his ghost or something… My wife took the liberty of covering for my strange actions by basically I am a little nuts. She can really irk me at times. I am going to find the three witches who prophesized to me. I need to know what is next to come.

Ps. Maybe I am a little nuts… Macbeth

Garret Kirkpatrick

Today I was talking to the lord and lady Macbeth. They seem pretty disturbed with the face they killed duncan. I personally didn't think it was a good idea, I know Macbeth wants to be king very badly and now he got his wish. There are still some things I have been thinking about, like how am i suppose to have kids that become king if Macbeth is in the throne? Now when I was talking to lady Macbeth I am getting a little suspicious. I think it would be smart for Macbeth to get rid of me so I should probably be careful. It would not be past Macbeth and his wife to get rid of me so Im going to maybe ask my son Fleance to accompany me from now on so i have some protection. Also somebody to avenge my death if I should get killed by Macbeth, let's hope that doesn't happen.

-Banquo

**Austyn Ray**

**This isn’t what I asked for. I didn’t know becoming queen would be like this. So here is my final letter than shall become my will. To my lovely husband, King Macbeth, I leave all of my love and my soul to you. I know someday you will go down as one of the greatest kings ever and a terrific father, just not to my kids. So I end this with a “Good-bye world.”**

Dear Diary, I have suspicions. I feel Macbeth is not being honest. I think that he may know something about the kings murder, maybe even being involved with it himself.It seems unlikely though and I should not speak of my friend is such a way. I hope that one of my children will be the one to take the throne. It would be a very proud moment for me. That would mean that I raised a king. Words could not descibe the joy I would experience if that happened. The witches predicted Macbeth would be king, but honestly, what do they know. He would make a good king though and I wish him the best. I just want the king to be the best fit for Scotland and its people. Now we just have to wait and see who that will be. Sincerely, Banquo
