| Chapter One ~in a castle~ Roses woke up. Where am I? she thought. Looking around, she discovered she was sitting in a giant heart-shaped bed. "Okay, what kind of drugs did Rosey put in my drink?" she said aloud to herself as she got up. She walked across the rather strange, seemingly heart-shaped room and looked in a heart- shaped mirror. She was wearing a red, somehow heart-shaped dress. "AAAAHHHH!!! What am I wearing? Rosey, you will DIE!!!!" she screamed. ~far away in the woods~ "So, George, where exactly are we going?" Hansel asked. "I don't know, TAS-man, and why did you call me George?" Cait-Dog replied. "I'm not sure, but it seems appropriate. I mean, here we are in the woods, with a bag of bread crumbs, apparently lost, wearing these funny suspender things, and that looks like a house made of candy. Just reminds me of Hansel and Gretel." "Yes, but George?" "Would you rather be Gretel?" "George is good." "So, George, do you want to go inside the candy house?" TAS-man suggested, "There's probably a witch in there who wants to eat us." "Ummm...okay, Hansel....That just sounds weird." ~inside the candy house~ "Would you stop that?" Jaina demanded. "Sorry, but I can't help it." Crayak apologized. He was chasing her around the table, and surprisingly, he was a wolf. "It just seems like the right thing to do." Jaina grabbed her red cloak and ran for the door, when suddenly it opened. Everyone stopped. "TAS-man? Cait-Dog? Or should I say Hansel and um...Gretel?" Jaina asked, dodging Crayak again. "It's George." Cait corrected. "Oh." ~in a tower in the woods~ Tails stared out the window. Then she noticed where she was. She spun around, tripping on her hair. "Hey! I just got my hair cut! No way it's this long already." she complained, walking to the door. It was locked. "Okay, this is not funny. Last I remember, I was in Rosey's fortress. Rosey!!!" No answer. "Rosey this is not funny! Holli? Roses? Let me out!!!!" No answer. "Okay, so we'll do it the hard way." she said to herself. Tails walked over the door and started kicking it. "Ouch! How did I get these shoes? I can't kick the door down with these!" "No, you can't." said a pleasant voice. "Who's there?" "It's just me, Pen/cil. Although, I seem to be a magic wand." "Wow, so where are we?" "I have no idea. But I'm thinking we should find a way out. Maybe you could use my magic powers." ~In a cottage in the woods~ Ann Chovi stared at the broom in her hand. "Okay, I know I didn't voluntarily pick this up. So Rosey must have done something strange. And I wonder where everyone else is." From inside the window, she saw seven very short men coming towards the house. "Uh-oh, I have to get out of here." she said, dropping the broom. "Don't leave without me!" "Without who?" "Tyrael." "Ty! Where are you?" "I think I'm in the oven, it's really hot in here." Ann opened the oven door to see a gingerbread man baking. "Ty?" "Yes?" Without answering, she grabbed him and ran out of the house, past the seven...dwarves? Yes, dwarves. They immediately turned around. "Snow White! Snow White!" one called, "Where are you going?" Ann kept running, the dwarves chased her. "Ha, ha, ha! Run as fast as you can. You'll never catch me, I'm the gingerbread man!" Tyrael yelled back to them. "What?" Ann asked. "I have no idea, but I want to go home now." "I think I see a tower up ahead, we'll see what it is." Ann gasped, still running. ~by the seashore~ "Wow, I think I lifted too many weights yesterday in my failing attempts to become a handsome stud," thought Roseidous. "I can hardly move." He got up slowly from his chair and walked outside. "Wait...since when did I get a house on the Mediterranean? Oh well, it's a nice place." A few minutes later... "No, I didn't buy a house on the Mediterranean. And how did I get here anyway? Hmm..the girls are probably up to something. Oh, well, time for a swim." Then Rosey finally noticed he wasn't exactly normal. He was made of wood. "Uh-oh...what did they do to me? I need to go find them immediately. The clones won't like me if I don't have real muscles anymore. Because, I mean, my muscles were so perfect to begin with." He set off towards the woods, without noticing that his nose was suddenly a little longer. ~back in the castle~ "Did you hear someone scream?" Holli asked. "No..." said Nothlit "Wait, does my voice sound weird?" "Oh, that's just because you just woke up." "No, I don't think that's it." "Well, maybe you're sick. Let me take your temperature." Holli turned around. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" "What? I look that sick?" "Um, um, um...Nothlit? Have you noticed what I'm wearing?" "Yes, and I'm not sure why you're so dressed up. I mean, a yellow ball gown is just not normal." "Remind you of anything?" "Actually, Holli, it reminds me of Beauty and the Beast." "Exactly. For some reason, I'm Beauty." "Ooookay, what kind of meeting did we go to? Did Rosey give us drugs? Oh, and if you're Beauty, where's the Beast?" "Weeeelll..." "Oh." "Yeah." Just then, there was a knock on the door. "Come in." Holli said. Roses walked in. "I thought I heard you talking. We seem to have a problem here. Rosey's stupid machine sent us to this fairy tale world. Apparently, we're all characters. And since the three of us are here, we can only wonder where everyone else is...All I can say is that when I find Rosey, it's off with his head!!" Holli and Nothlit stared. "Sorry, it's the character. Queen of Hearts." To be continued... << The Sagas ������������������������ Back to Home ��������������������� Chapter Two>> |
