The Beauty and the Bald – a love story



Author's note:

I got inspired to write this fanfic when I heard my friend Victoria say "The Bald and the Beauty" in school when talking about a guy we both know and adore in our college. ^_~ (hehe, no further comments about that *LOL*). I changed the title to fit the story, though. I must remember to thank her in school tomorrow. :o)

Okie, I know, weird story as usual, but that's just because it's in English, I can write much better in Swedish (but you already know that by now if you have read any other stories by me, I use to jabber about that all the time *lol*).

Oh no, here's come the disclaimer. Take cover!!! *LOL*

I don't own any characters from the LoK series. Got that? *winks* Good.

And now, to the actual story! Yiiiihaaaaaa! *cheers so much that she coughs for a long period of time* This is the first chapter, if you wanna read more, please tell me so (by reviewing that is).

The wind played upon the young woman's cheeks as she walked through the woods that Autumn night. Just a kilometre left, she told to herself. She was afraid of what horrible things that could happen to a girl at eleven o'clock on a Saturday night.

She sighed deeply and began walking faster. The leaves made sounds under her shoes, an owl looked down at her in silence from a tree. The Halloween party she had went to at her friend´s house wasn't exactly what she had expected it to be The parents were not home, so her friend and all the invited youngsters drank alcoholic drinks gladly. Except for her.

Well, she couldn't call her friend 'a friend' anymore. The so called friend knew that she was in love with a boy named Lenny, and had always told her that she was happy for her. But at the party the friend had been very busy flirting with Lenny and, after that, necking with him. It was at that time that the young woman took her jacket and hurried away from there without saying a word to the others.

It wasn't very clever of her, but the anger had taken control over her mind. She had nearly went over to her friend to slap her in the face, but she never did that. That would make her feel sorry for the so called friend. Actually, she had no clue how she could think like that about a person who had stolen her love, Lenny, from her.

"I hate 'em both," she mumbled and sobbed while walking in the darkness. "I wish that they were dead!"

She should have called her parents to pick her up, because it was a long way to walk, but as stated before, her anger made the logical thoughts to vanish. Now they would think that she was going to stay at her friend's house until the next day.

As she walked she heard a loud laughter, and she saw a couple of young men, older than her and obviously drunk, some metres ahead of her. She felt a bit worried and slowed down walking. She didn't know if she should walk straight forward or turn around to walk the same way back.

The men saw her and whistled excitedly.

"Hey, wanna join our little party?" one of them says. He smirks at her, and she feels sick.

The young woman almost didn't dare to breathe, and she stopped walking in fright. The men came closer and closer, all she wanted to do was to sank into the earth and disappear to never come back...

Suddenly she found herself running troughs the woods while her followers yelled after her. Her heart beated so hard at her chest in fright that it hurted, but she ignored it. Tears ran down from her eyes, she cried as she tried to avoid from getting hit in the face by a branch of a tree.

She felt as if the world rotated before her eyes, a dizzyness grew stronger inside her head, and she threw herself down on the ground behind a rock, pulling her knees up to her chest and leaning her forehead towards them.

"Allmighty God, please don't let them hurt me," she whispered and cried in silence. "Please..."

After saying that she began to mumble uncontrolable in panic. She didn't know for how long she sat there, she only thing she heard was her heartbeats. After a while she looked up, but saw that it wasn't the same woods she had been running trough.

Slowly she got up to her feet in fright, and looked around while putting her arms around herself in a gesture of being helpless. For a moment she listened carefully to see if she could hear the men yelling, but the woods were awfully quiet.

She shivered and felt like throwing up.With eyes full of tears she began walking forward without knowing where to go.

A strange feeling took a great part of her concentration. She had seen these woods before, but when and where? She hadn't been here before, that was for sure.

Thoughts screamed inside her. She wished that she had made that phonecall home, but no, she had to be so god-damn stupid not to do the only right thing.

Suddenly three tall men appeared out from the shadows infront of her, she nearly bumped into them. They were pale, extremely pale, and very muscular. Their yellow eyes studied her expressionless, but one of them wet his black lips with his tongue and suddenly smirked.

The young woman almost screamed. She had seen these men before, but where? Memories rushed in her head, and then she remembered.

"Oh my God..." she stammered and backed off. "This can't be..."
