This is my first Hunchback of Notre Dame fic, but I'm not going to beg people to not flame this story. I know that writing an fic with an OC is risky, but I hope that people will think my story is original enough to review, and stick around to find out what happens in the next chapter.
Summary: Esmeralda, Clopin, Quasimodo, Phoebus, and Djali have been pulled into our world by a wish made by a teenage fan. How are they going to handle computers and cars, and all the other modern day technology? And what happens when they attend high school for day, and see the horrors their teenage host goes through? Can they help her achieve a new level a confidence and find the talents she thinks she doesn't have? And what happens when one of characters begins to have feelings for the girl?
Chapter 1
So here is a riddle to guess if you can
Sing the bells of Notre Dame
What makes a monster and what makes a man?
Sing the bells, bells, bells, bells
Whatever their pitch, you
Can feel them bewitch you
The rich and the ritual knells
Of the
Bells of Notre Dame!
Patsy Turner couldn't help it. She belted out the last line of her favorite movie along with her idol Paul Kandel. Even though she would never in her life be able to hit that final high note, it was always fun to try. Her best friend Sabrina Coleman, held her ears till she was sure that Patsy was done trying to sing like Clopin.
"Way to make my ears bleed," Sabrina scowled. "For someone that can't sing at all, you sure like to tr . . . Are you even listening to me?"
Patsy turned her attention away from the TV, where the credits were rolling against the yellow background.
"Did you say something?"
"Yeah, I said something! I asked why the hell are we spending our weekend inside your basement watching some dumb Disney movie from 1992?"
"Actually it came out in 1996," Patsy said sheepishly.
"Who gives a damn? "Cause I sure as hell don't! I don't get why you don't like going to parties or to the mall. I mean all my other friends like doing that stuff. Your the only one who likes sitting around and watching Disney movies."
"I like singing and dancing too," said Patsy softly.
"Yeah, but your forgetting one thing."
"I know Sabs, I have no talent in either."
She sighed, closing her blue eyes for a moment. Sabrina was the only person who knew of her dream to be a singer and dancer. But she was also the person who found it a point to tell her everyday that she had no talent in either. While Sabrina would star on the stage in all the school shows, Patsy would only sit in the audience wishing she had the talent to be up there instead of her.
"Patsy!"
Her eyes shot open, and she turned to look at her 'friend.' Anyone who looked at the two would never have guessed that the two girls were friends. While Sabrina was strong, confident, a leader, and popular, Patsy was quiet, meek, and a follower. Wherever Sabrina was, Patsy was sure to follow, because she had no one else. She was to shy to make any other friends. She followed Sabrina around like a puppy, and was always seeking her advice for everything. Sabrina knew this, and constantly took advantage of her 'friend.'
"Patsy, I said that Nathan is picking me up in ten minutes."
Patsy felt her face turn red. Nathan was Sabrina's older brother, who Patsy secretly had a crush on. No one knew about her crush though, not even Sabrina. Deciding to change the subject, she turned to the movie that they had just been watching.
"Don't you think it'd be cool to meet the characters in Hunchback of Notre Dame? I mean Clopin is totally funny, and actually kind of cute. And Quasimodo is so sweet. An-"
"Eww gross! I can't believe you think that gypsy thing is cute! He probably never bathed in his life! And his nose was huge. And who cares is Quasimodo was nice. The dude had a lump in his back. And it would so not be cool to meet those dumb characters. And another thin-"
Sabrina was cut off by the sound of a car horn. Her brother Nathan had arrived to pick her up.
"Looks like I've got to go." She picked up her jacket, and left without even saying goodbye, leaving Patsy all by herself.
"Maybe what she said is right. It is sort of silly to want to meet the characters. I mean their only make believe."
She grabbed the remote for the DVD player, and pressed play, to make to movie restart again. Patsy laid down on the couch, a familiar song filling her ears, as she slowly drifted to sleep. But as she began to lose consciousness, she did something that she would never be able to explain. She made two wishes.
"I wish that the Hunchback of Notre Dame characters were real. I wish I could meet them. "
Unknown to Patsy, she was about to get her wish. She was about to experience something new to her. Something that would change her life, and the way she acted forever.
And that is the end of chapter one. I know Patsy seems lame, and I know she should stand up to Sabrina, but there is a reason behind the way she acts. There relationship will be explained in later chapters, and the HoND gang will be the ones to help her stand up to Sabrina. Now here comes the part were I ask you all to please review my story, because I love getting that e-mail that says you got a review. Even if it's major critique, I'll take it, because it will only make me a better writer.
Your always faithful writer.
