Hello everyone. I've got a question for you. Do you remember when I decided to do a fairy tale series with a Scooby Doo twist? Well Currently there are two in progress stories I've written for that series and after having this idea stuck in my head for the longest time I decided to write it. I'm not sure if I will expand this. I will let you guys decide on that. Now I present to you my twist on the tale of Little Red Riding Hood.
Red
Oh the irony of the situation. Mia knew if she'd tell anyone they'd think she had gone insane. However here she was sundown on Halloween dressed as Little Red Riding Hood and running from a wolf. Mia mentally scolded herself for agreeing to go to a party. If it were up to her she'd be at home reading a book in her pajamas not running for her life. Mia could her the wolf behind her slowly gaining on her. If it caught her there was no doubt it would eat her.
"Go with us they said it will be fun they said" Mia muttered while looking for a place to hide or something to defend herself with.
Mia ran into a clearing as the sun slipped behind the hills and the moon climbed into the sky.
Mia stopped almost against her will. She looked at her surroundings not pleased to find she was even more lost now than ever.
"Great just great"
She heard it. The wolf had entered the clearing behind her growling still. Mia turned to face it scared for her life. When the wolf saw her face however he stopped and sat down like a trained pet. Mia stood shaking waiting for it to spring forward. It never did instead it turned and walked back into the woods leaving Mia alone.
Mia scrambled back through the woods trying to find and her way back to Josh's house and the party so she could get a ride from someone and go home. Her foot caught a rut in the ground causing her to trip and fall.
"This is exactly how I wanted my night to go" she mumbled.
As Mia tried to get up a feeling of tiredness overtook her. Mia found herself laying down and nodding off to sleep.
Mia opened her eyes to find she was back in her room the next day. Was it all a dream? The answer turned out to be no. As she got out of bed she realized she was still wearing her costume. Well part of it. The hood was draped over the back of her desk chair. However when Mia looked at it more closely she realized it wasn't hers or rather her original hood. This one was decorated along the sides with gold swirling designs. Mia picked it up to get a better look at it and found that it was made with velvet instead of cheap cotton. The inside was lined with red silk. Whoever had made this had put a tremendous amount of effort into it. Mia out of plain curiosity put it one and tied it, completely unaware that she was being watched.
He watched her happily. Ashamed at what he had almost done to her the night before. The hood had been his way of apologizing to her and he was glad to see that she'd accepted it. He didn't know what it was about her. He never wanted to see her scared again. He all to suddenly felt the need to protect her from anything and everything. Perhaps it had to do with the curse placed on him to years ago. He constantly fought for control over his instincts Last night had been a terrible slip up. He'd let instinct cloud his judgement and he regretted it. Now as he he sat alone in his cabin watching Mia he vowed never to let it happen again.
"Oh Red I promise I won't do it again" Shaggy said as the image faded in his mirror.
Okay that ends that should I continue this? For now I'm going to mark it complete unless I get told otherwise. Review please.
