This story takes place in medieval times at first. In part 2, it will be in modern times, and then going back to medieval times to see what happened before chapters 1-4.
I hope you like fairy tales because this story has a lot of fairy tales. The fairy tales in this story are put together!
Chapter 1 The War
Right now, the kingdom of The Dawns Breaker is being attacked by a very powerful sorcerer.
The sorcerer’s name was Bogom. Bogom was a regular guy until he sought revenge. In part 2, you will see how he got his powers from the Dark One.
“The sorcerer is going to be here shortly! We must prepare. Archers! Ready with your crossbows! Tip over the wardrobes for cover. Charming, send 3 men holding the door closed and 4 men behind them, ready with their swords. Send two men to push over the throne to the secret passage. Then you and the rest of the men will come with me,” commanded the king.
Now I will tell you more about King Utha’s family. Utha’s wife had just died. Utha thought that Arthur should get a wife. He was only 16! Although he did have eyes for someone most unexpected, a servant. She was dark-skinned. Her name was Gwen. She was a servant to lady Morgana. The king is against magic, so if he catches anybody in his kingdom using magic or practicing magic or spells or uses enchantments, he will have their head! King Utha is against magic or whatever because a sorcerer named Golom used to be a good friend of Utha, but Utha’s wife had leprosy. Utha commanded Golom to heal her, yelling at him and offending him. Because Utha offended him, he refused to help Utha heal his wife. Golom was banned from the dawn and was never to come back. He was going to leave the next day, but something bad happened that night. Golom was angry, so that night he used voodoo to kill the king’s wife. That night he left, leaving a note that said, “Things happen when you make the wrong choices. Golom.”
That morning when Utha woke up to find that his wife was dead, he yelled, “Nooooo!”
Ever since then, Utha was against magic.
Back to the battle …
“Grab some torches and let’s go!” commanded the king.
When they were halfway through, it started to cave in! “Cave in! Run!” yelled Prince Charming. They got to the end but they did not go back up because they knew that it was not safe, so they so they decided to stay in there and hide.
Five minutes later …
Bogom forced the big, heavy door open forcing the guards away. When he walked in, the archers fired at him, but he reversed them back at them. A man got back up off the floor, picked up his sword, and tried to stab Bogom, but he went through him and Bogom turned around and stabbed him with his dagger. All you could hear down in the cave was “Ching! Chang! Boom! Sling! Sling! Sica! Sica! Sica! Aaaahhh!” yelled a soldier.
There was one man remaining. “Where are the king and the others hiding?” asked Bogom.
“I will never tell you where they are!” answered the guard.
“That’s okay. I already know where they are!” exclaimed Bogom.
All of a sudden the throne begins to move. Then the guard took the secret crossbow and fired at Bogom. Bogom stepped over and grabbed the arrow in mid air. Then he snapped it in half.
All the men came out of the cave with their hands up unarmed. Well, most unarmed.
“I mean you no harm. I just came for someone,” said Bogom. “You’re not going anywhere with anyone.”
“It’s about time we stood up for each other and fight!” said Prince Charming.
The men picked up their weapons except for Utha.
The men with weapons in their hands were forced to the walls. Thorn vines came out of the walls and strapped them so they could not move.
“The ones that did not bear arms made the right decision. Anyway, I only need servant,” said Bogom.
“Why would you need a servant anyways, Bogom?” said Charming.
The vines holding him got tighter.
“Sooner or later you’re going to get yourself killed by your actions. Maybe even now … anyways, that’s none of your concern. The servant I want is …” started Bogom.
“Me! Take me!” interrupted Bell.
“Actually, you would do,” said Bogom.
“Do for what?” yelled Charming. The sharp vines were so tight, that Charming could not breathe!
“So I’ll be taking Bell and I will be on my way,” said Bogom. Right then Bogom and Bell disappeared.
Chapter 2 The Welcoming
“Welcome to my castle, deary. I have a nice room for you and you may do whatever you like or go wherever you would like; EXCEPT, you are not to touch anything in my room. At their castle of the Dawn, you are a servant. Here, you are a Princess!” explained Bogom.
Two days later, Bell started to like the castle, but she missed her friends and family.
“Hey, Bogom?”
“Yes, deary?”
“I miss my close ones, and I was wondering if I-I-I could see them again?” asked Bell.
“Sorry, but I can’t let you do that, but I can give you a magic potion. Whatever the first thing you think of, you will dream about!” offered Bogom.
“That sounds exciting, but I do not think that it will help,” said Bell.
“What do you think of a potion that could make you forget about your close ones? You wouldn’t even know that they existed!” said Bogom.
Bell thought for a minute.
“May I go take a walk to think about that?” asked Bell.
“Sure, but be back for supper! And wait, take this stopwatch with you. If you are in any sort of trouble, just push that button and you will appear here. Okay?” said Bogom.
“Okay,” answered Bell.
When Bell was walking on the River Wood Trail, she heard a horse and carriage coming up around the curve. She jumped into the ditch and put her head down. She quickly peeked up a little to see who it was. It was the King of the Dawns-Breaker probably heading to the Kingdom of Camelot.
Then Bell peeked up again to see if they were gone. They were. She got back onto the trail. But when she turned around, there was another carriage. At least, it wasn’t Dawn carriage. It was a carriage from the Dark Horses.
“Get out of the way!” yelled the coachman.
Bell stepped aside. When she was face to face with the carriage door, the carriage stopped. Queen Glinda stepped out.
Glinda is a sorcerer, too. She is a mortal enemy of Bogom. More than anything in the world, she has always wanted to be more powerful than Bogom. Glinda is good at acting out and persuading people to do something.
“Are you lost?” asked Glinda.
“No. I’m just taking a walk.” Said Bell.
The two talked together about why Bell was hiding in the ditch and other stuff. Glinda noticed that Bell had an enchanted stopwatch.
“Where did you get that stopwatch?” asked Glinda.
“Bogom gave it to me,” said Bell.
“Did you know that Bogom is cursed? I know how to break the curse 2 ways!” said Glinda.
“Really! How?” asked Bell.
“Well, one way is to kill him with the Dark Ones’ blade (which Bogom put where no one can find it, and if he was to, he would die by seeing it) so I would not prefer that way.”
“The other way is true love’s kiss. Notice it’s not true love’s first kiss,” explained Glinda.
“I would do that and be happy!” exclaimed Bell.
“You should try tonight!”
“I will.”
Instead of walking all the way home, Bell used the stopwatch to get home a lot faster.
“I’m actually glad that you took me here. I can’t believe I’m actually saying this, but I love you!” said Bell to Bogom.
They were about to kiss, but then Bogom backed up saying, “I was starting to like you, but you blew it! I will never be with you! Leave!” yelled Bogom. Bell left crying. Then Bogom started crying.
Chapter 3 Cause & Effect
Now, we’re going back in time when Snow White was only 12 years old! Glinda was turning 19. She was going to get married to Lancelot, but there was one problem. Glinda was in love with Dave.
Dave and Glinda were riding horses in the field. When they came back to put their horses in the stables, Cora, Glinda’s mother, was watching them from the window.
Cora is not a trustworthy person. She uses sorcery, too. Cora takes magic lessons from Bogom.
Anyways, Cora sent Snow White out to see what they were doing. When she saw the two kissing, she gasped.
“I never knew that you two were getting married!” exclaimed Snow.
“We’re not getting married just yet, Snow. We’re just dating and you can not tell Madam Cora, my mom, okay?” said Glinda
“Okay,” said Snow.
Snow White went back to the castle. “So, what did you see?” asked Cora.
“Glinda said that I was not supposed to tell you, “ replied Snow.
“You can tell me anything. I would do anything for Glinda,” said Cora.
“Okay, but don’t tell Glinda I told you this. I saw them kissing. They said that they were on a date,” blabbed Snow White.
“Thank you for telling me this, sweetie,” said Cora. Snow went into her room.
The next morning, Cora told Glinda that she was getting married with Lancelot.
Glinda ran to the stables where Dave was working. She told him what was to happen the next day. Dave wanted to run away together, but Glinda loved her father too much.
While they were talking, Cora walked in the stable.
“Two special events are going to happen tomorrow. Glinda’s wedding and Dave’s funeral!” said Cora. She stabbed Dave with a dagger.
“NOOO! I will never forgive you for this.” Cried Glinda. Glinda never got married with Lancelot.
One day, Glinda was doing dishes. Then Snow walked into the room.
“I haven’t been seeing you and Dave together anymore. Why? Did you break up?” asked Snow White.
“Did you tell Cora?” asked Glinda.
“Yes, because your mother would do anything for you. So, what happened with you and Dave?”
“Cora killed Dave!” said Glinda, crying up to her room.
That night, when Glinda was checking mail, she found a strange letter. This is what it said.
Dear Cora,
I hope that you are ready for your next lesson because the next one is about curses. But the problem is that we won’t use the curse on everybody in this world so we need to get a portal. And I know just the place to get one … the Mad Hatter! Bring a magic bean, a dragon’s scale and the heart of the one you love most. See you there!
Sincerely, Bogom
Who’s Bogom?” said Glinda.
Right when she said that, Bogom appeared behind her.
“Bogom at your service, deary,” said Bogom.
She was about to call for her mother but Bogom said, “Don’t be afraid! I only came here to help you (and cause you called me), but anyways, you have two desires. I cannot bring Dave back, but I can get rid of your mother NOT by killing her, but by sending her to another world,” offered Bogom.
Glinda thought for a moment.
“I accept,” said Glinda.
Glinda went to her mother’s room and started wrecking stuff. Her mother came in and froze her with a spell, but when she walked in front of it, she used the force spell to push her in the portal.
Snow White was watching, so she ran away. That day, there were big changes and big plans!
Chapter 4 Rise of the Curse
Today was Snow’s wedding day, but Glinda wanted to pay a visit. Glinda appeared in the wedding room and made her speech.
“You will all pay for what Snow White has done! You have taken everything from me! Tomorrow, I will set a curse upon all of you!” she said as she disappeared.
Glinda took the ingredients her mother was going to use not knowing what curse it was, except for the heart. She took the heart of her instead, then put it in the pot.
Then purple dust started to come out, but then it went back into the pot. She called for Bogom. Bogom appeared.
“Why didn’t the curse work?” exclaimed Glinda.
“Whose heart did you put in there?” asked Bogom.
“My steed’s!” replied Glinda.
“You think you love your horse the most? You love your father the most!” Bogom disappeared.
She could not resist the curse so she put her father on a sleeping spell and then took his heart. She put it in the pot and once again the purple dust started to rise.
Now, we’re back at the castle and Snow White just had her baby! They named her Cindy.
The men and women were gathering around a HUGE table. The fairies had made a fairy tree, but it could only fit Donicio and Cindy so they decided to put the two in. Donicio was already in, it’s just Cindy.
The 4 bell towers started to ring.
“The curse is here! I must take Cindy to the fairy tree and fast!” said Charming. Glinda’s guards were now under the castle.
Charming took a baby in one hand and took a sword in the other. He fought his way through to the fairy tree, but got injured in his shoulder. He carefully placed the baby in the fairy tree and shut the doors. “Whoosh.”
But when he turned around, Glinda stabbed him in the gut with a dagger. Then she opened the doors. Nobody was in there!
Their mission was a success and now Donicio and Cindy have a chance to break the curse!
