Adriana was stuck at home with nothing to do. Her parents had gone out for some business dinner or something, so she was left on her own. And since she was too young to drive it wasn't like she could just go out anywhere. So what else is a fourteen-year-old supposed to do on a Friday night? Stay up all night on Facebook chatting with friends of course.
While she was doing so she heard a strange noise coming from outside her bedroom window. It sounded as if someone were singing. "One song, I have but one song. One song, only for you." She opened the window to see if anyone was there, but all she saw was her empty backyard. I know this song, she thought, but from where? Also she was curious as to who would be playing a romantic song outside her window. She didn't have any crushes or secret admirers or anything.
She ran downstairs and stepped outside, following the music hoping to find the source. "What the�" She found an ipod attached to ipod speakers. As soon as she turned it on she remembered where she heard the song before; it's from Snow White. She hadn't seen it in years, but it she wasn't surprised that someone would play this for her. Her whole life people have told her that she looked just like Snow White, with her short black curls, brown eyes, and really pale skin.
Wow, she thought as she scrolled through the album list on the ipod. The entire thing is made up of Disney songs. She looked around, and despite the lights from the other houses she couldn't see anyone. "Hello?" she called out looking in the darkness. She was just about to go back inside when she felt an arm grab her waist and a hand cover her mouth. Then everything went black.
Eventually she woke up on the floor of a lit empty room. Once she regained full consciousness she was able to take in further details of her surroundings. The room had no windows and one door, and literally the only other thing in the room besides herself was a table with a shiny red apple on it. She then noticed that there was something different about her; looking down she saw that she was no longer wearing jeans and a t-shirt but instead a Snow White costume, complete with the yellow bowtie heels and red headband.
She stood up and made her way towards the door, jiggling the handle, but of course it was locked. "Hello?" she called out, banging the door as hard as she could. "Let me out!" She wasn't all that surprised when there was no answer.
She then glanced back at the apple. That thing has to be poison, she thought. Why else would I be locked in a room dressed as Snow White with nothing but an apple? She crossed her arms and gave a smug smile. I'm not going to eat it, she thought. I'll be out of here in no time.
Of course time passed and nothing happened. Adriana didn't know how much time though considering there was no clock in the room. All she could do was pace back and forth or sit on the floor, the emptiness of the room driving her mad. Her stomach started rumbling, but she refused to eat that apple. She glared at it, feeling as though it were watching her, waiting for her to crack. I would rather starve to death than eat you, she thought as if the apple could read her mind.
Eventually more time passed. Again she didn't know how much time but to her every minute felt like an eternity. However long it was, it was long enough so that not only was she hungry, but also thirsty. She continued to glare at the apple, only this time with an inkling of weakness.
Even more time passed. At this point she was laying in fetal position with her arms around her stomach from the pain of starvation. Her mouth was so dry from dehydration that she could barely produce any sound. In fact she was alone in that room for so long that she was beginning to forget what a voice sounds like, unable to hear anything other than her own thoughts from the deathly silence of the room.
Finally she couldn't take it anymore. She looked up at the apple desperately. She didn't care if it were poisonous, she wanted to feel the sweet feeling of its juice trickle down and refresh her throat. Dragging herself across the floor, she used every ounce of energy in her body to stand up, feeling lightheaded and aching pains throughout her whole body. She grabbed the apple and took a bite, and not at all surprised, the apple was indeed poisonous. As soon as she took that bite, she could feel the poison run through her whole body. She felt her heart stop beating and fell to the floor, dead, as the apple rolled out of her hand.
