Trix wrinkled her nose as course object tickled it. She hummed. A gush of cold wind passed over her and extended her hand to grab her blanket. Her hand instead made contact with soft, cold, leafy mud. Trix's eyes snapped open.
She scrambled to her feet as she observed her unfamiliar surrounding. Tall, menacing trees surrounded her illuminated by the light of the moon. As Trix turned in every direction, she came to conclusion that she was in a forest. A really big forest.
Fear clung to her like a blanket and her frantic heart beat could be heard for miles.
"Where am I?"
A gush of cold wind passed over her and she hugged herself tightly.
"Oh, there you are," a voice said.
Trix immediately turned in the direction of the voice and saw a short, stocky man dressed oddly.
"You must be the newby," the man stated pulling out a small book and a pen.
"Here are your things," he said handing them to Trix.
"Use them wisely and remember these words-, Every action has an equal reaction," he said slowly and clearly.
"Farewell, Trixiana," he said with smile before disappearing into thin air.
"What? Wait!" Trix yelled, not understanding a thing he said.
She glanced down confused at the book. Her heart stilled as she stared at the book title- Cinderella.
"I am dreaming."
She immediately squeezed her eyes shut and pinched herself as hard as she could. She opened her eyes and let out a sound of frustration.
"Guys, if this is your doing this is not funny," she yelled.
She stood there for a while in silence. She heard no giggles or chuckles.
She was all alone.
Trix dropped to the forest floor, feeling the loneliness wash over her. Soon years started to fall from her eyes. She hated being alone.
She glanced at the book once more and reluctantly opened it. On the inside of the cover were a few scribblings.
Finish the story and you go home.
As she read the words, Trix hurriedly scrambled around looking for the pen she was given. She found it submerged in leaves. She grabbed it and hurriedly scribbled under- Once upon time, The end.
A few minutes had passed and nothing happened, suddenly the words on the inner side of the book cover faded away and reappeared.
You really thought it'd be that easy, hahaha.
Trix nearly growled in frustration. She didn't even remember the story of Cinderella. She gripped her hair tightly, she was lost, in every meaning of the phrase.
Don't worry, I'll offer a little assistance.
~~~Once upon a time in a land far away lived a girl named Ella. Ella lived happily with her parents in a beautiful house with a few servants, until Ella's mother fell sick.....
Trix read the few lines that the book wrote. 'Fairytales were based of happily ever after's right,' she taught to herself. 'Then let's give Ella a happily ever after do I can leave.'
~~~Ella's father desperate not to lose his one true love ventured into the dark forest to meet a witch, who could cute his wife of her illness.....
A sudden knocking on a door interrupted Trix from her writing. She jumped in shock as she observed her surroundings, she was in a cottage of sorts. She was sitting by an old table with a small bottle in front of her, on the bottle was the word, 'cure'.
"Shite."
The knocking became louder.
"Alright, Alright," Trix said her voice coarse. She rose from her seat but her height was off. She reached her hands out to grab the bottle and screeched at the sight of her hands. An hold wrinkly hand with warts grabbed the bottle.
She hurriedly opened the door and stuffed the bottle into the hands of the person outside and slammed the door. She hurried back to the book, avoiding all mirrors.
~~~~Ella's mother was cured and the family was happy once more but as the years went by, Ella's father grew distant and after one tragic night when Ella's mother found out about her husband's infidelities. She had a sudden heart ache and died. Ella was torn and distraught. She blamed her father for what he had done and hated him. Ella became bitter and cruel.
"What! No!" Trix yelled. What had she done.
~~~Ella's father remarried his mistress and passed a few years later. Now Ella lives with her stepmother and stepsisters.
Trix glanced up and watched as a brunette stuffed her hand into the fireplace, searching blindly for what? Trix didn't know. She suddenly stopped and rubbed her nose and sneezed.
"Bless you," Trix replied immediately.
"Ella, it's not in there and if you don't stop, we are going to have to start calling you Cinderella," a petite blonde said entire the room with a tea tray.
"It is very important to me. I need to find it," Ella said raising to her feet and brushing off her dress.
Trix stared at them blankly.
"Are you alright, Ginger," Ella asked staring at Trix, who seemed lost in thought.
Poppy, the blonde snapped her fingers before Trix and woke her from her trance. She hummed and stared at the two, who had sat down.
"Are you alright," Poppy inquired. The pair had concerned look in their eyes. Trix hummed in response and nodded.
She rose from her seat and stood in front of a mirror. Trix was wearing a silver and black, corseted dress. Her dark curly hair was now straight. She looked beautiful. She smiled at her appearance and twirled. She giggled, a foreign sound that she hadn't made in a really long time.
Ella and Poppy shared a glanced and then the three all started jumping around like little girls.
"What is the meaning of this," a firm voice said. The girls paused and stared at a middle aged slim lady wearing, by the looks of it a really uncomfortable corset. Behind her were to girls.
To Trix, one seemed to be half Asian and the other half African American. They stood with smirks behind who could have only been there mother.
"You are supposed to be cleaning this house," the stepmother yelled, hands akimbo.
"Excuse me," Ella retorted, standing in front of the group.
"How dare you talk back to your mother," she said dramatically.
"You," Ella started chickling, taking slow, small, intimidating steps towards her stepmother, "are not my mother."
"And since my mother payed for the land on which this house was build, this is my house."
"So why don't you, start cleaning or leave," Ella stated watching as the smug looks left her stepsisters face and a scowl fell on the lips off her stepmother.
~~~~They left that same evening with the promise to comeback and ruin 'Cinderella's' little life......
Trix gulped as she watched their carriage left. She closed her book and sighed. How was she going to fix the problem that she had created.
Previously....Trix gulped as she watched their carriage left. She closed her book and sighed. How was she going to fix the problem that she had created.Trix was deep in thought that she didn't even hear the yells coming from behind her. A body collided with hers and she fell to the ground."Milady, are you alright," a deep voice said.Trix slowly opened her eyes and froze at the sapphire ones staring back at her. She opened her mouth and closed it like a fish. The man staring at her was drop dead gorgeous. The smiled at her and offered his hand and Trix nearly fainted.She clumsily grabbed his hands. In one swift motion, he pulled her to his warm hard body. Trix hurriedly detached herself from him."Oh, don't mind me," on the ground still, her saviour gathered Trix's fallen book."Oh my God, thank you," she said genuinely, rushing over to him. He forcefully gave shoved her book into her hand and t
Apples, oranges, lettuce, tomatoes, you name it. They all were here. What she was doing there is what Trix did not understand. She felt different, taller and everyone was looking at her, well every woman.She bit her lips as she contemplated the reason. She suddenly heard a gasp and watched confused as a woman fainted, falling in the arms of her companions.Just then a thought crossed Trix's mind.She hesitantly looked at her hand, her masculine hand.'Please don't be Charming, please don't be Charming, please don't be Charming," she chanted as she rushed to find a mirror. After a minute of senseless searching, she decided to settle for a bucket of water.Her/his hands gripped the bucket and slowly leaned forward. Her/his heart was going a beat per nanoseconds.It stilled at the sight before her.Why- of all the men in the kingdom was she him. The level of awkwardness running through her/his v
Trix blinked dumbly at Ella."What," she asked, eyes glued to Ella."I said I'm not going, Ginger," she repeated a little irritated."But why? I mean you said you would go when were talking before," she whined. Ella turned to look at her furrowed brow."With Tristan," she hurriedly added realizing her mistake."Yeah I did that for you," she said marching up the stairs. Trix followed closely. Poppy was in the know kitchen packing out the few vegetables that they had bought."What, how so?"Ella suddenly stopped in the middle of the staircase, causing Trix to almost bump into her."Ginger, I'm not blind. I see the way you guys were looking at each other," she stated smiling slightly.Trix stared at her dumbfoundedly. She opened her mouth to speak then closed it. She raised her brow pointedly then continued up the stair
"Are you sure you know where you are going."Ella released a frustrated sigh as she attempted to find her bearings."Yes, I'm sure. I'm just......"Ella suddenly fell to the ground. Eaton was immediately at her side."Are you alright," he asked worriedly, rubbing her back."I don't know," she admitted, tears running down her cheeks. Eaton gently brushed her tears away."I'm okay," she croaked. Eaton shook his head."Your obviously not okay."Ella stared at the now dark sky. She blinked rapidly trying to blink the tears away."You'll probably think of me a stupid little girl," she said hugging herself tightly."Or just a strong, independent woman," at those words Ella turned to look at the Prince, who was staring down at her with an unexplainable emotion in his eyes.She turned away from hi
Tristan slowly close the doors with the golden handles. He released a shaking breathe of relief. He took a step back and walked into Trix, who was petrified by the sight in front of her. "Are they real," she whispered at the jewels of many shapes sizes and colors. Tristan followed her gaze and gulped. "I knew this was a bad idea," he grumbled, turning around to check if the ogres were gone. He leaned closer to the door and peered through the cracks. The ogres were now sitting down, it appears that they were building a fire. No doubt to cook them on. "We are gonna be here for a while," he stated stepping away from the door. "Don't touch that," he yelled as Trix's fingers hovered over a spade shaped necklace. "Are you bloody mad," he said angrily marching towards her. "It could be cursed," he continued, brushing her hand away from it. "Chill, dude its just a necklace," she retorted backing away from hi
Trix groaned as she landed with a thud. She looked around and saw darkness. "Tristan," she called feeling around for him. "Tristan, where are you," she asked beginning to panic. Her hands patted the cold hard ground furiously. Suddenly they touched something hard, she immediately pulled her hands back and froze. She hesitantly reached forward again. It was slippery like glass but warm. Trix continued to feel the odd object when suddenly her hands touched fur. She stopped once more and felt her heart go still as warm air fanned over her face. It had a foul scent, like smoke. Trix pressed on further and nearly died when giant reptilian eyes suddenly appeared out of the dark. They glowed red and stared directly at her. Time seemed to slow as all Trix could hear was her frantically beating heart, pounding in her ears. She released a forced breath softly and slowly lifted her hands, earning another cloud of warm smoky air in her face.
Trix blinked dumbly at the person sitting on a gold throne with sapphires decorating its menacing figure. On the throne was a woman that Trix wished never existed in the real world or the one that she was in. The woman's slender figure was wrapped in a silk blue that made her look far more younger than she actually was. Her face was lightly powdered to give her a natural look. "Mrs. Weller," Trix said with venom on her tongue. In her mind she began to weave the reason why she was in her...lucid dream or wherever it was. She began to wonder if it was a coincidence that she was the one who suggested that she write this story. She even went a little further to think that Mrs. Weller was the one that sold Marcus the white powder. Suddenly a sharp pain went through Trix's thigh and she fell to one knee. "You will respect your Queen," a burly soldier growled, holding a spear. "Don't touch her," Tristan said coming to the rescue. He was hit in the back. He g
"It was the rule if Queen Celeste, the true Queen," Trix voices echoed into the silence as everyone held their breathe. "Queen Celeste was kind and warmhearted but she was also lonely. Yes, there were many suitors at court but the all wanted on thing....power. They didn't care for her or her kingdom, they just wanted the title 'king' added to their names." Trix said her voice loud and clear but her eyes were far away. "There was on suitor in particular, who was determined. More so that he started a war in hopes if forcing the Queen's hand into marriage, seeing that he was politically fit to be king and he was fit to lead an army seeing that he was a general," she said her eyes glazed over. "General Ivor," a faint voice whispered. Trix nodded. "The Queen searched love. The general seeing that decided that the best course of action was to kill her," as the harsh words left her lips, gasps went through the air. A true royal was a person capable o
