I wrote this in the fall of 2003 when I first started taking Spanish in my Junior Year of high school. It is a retelling of Swan Lake, Swan Princess. Now I am posting up for all to see. It is finished so I'll be updating really quick.
Enjoy and Review. I'll take anything this is an old story.
Prologue
Long ago in a country that no longer exists today behind a stone door is La Selva Magica. In side this magical place lived the hadas of the world, magical creatures and La Reina de Hadas, or by her given name, Deirdre. She had ruled over this land for centuries before that day.
It was a nice warm spring day, the day now called el Día de Císne. La Reina de Hadas was watching a group of ducks on the lake when she heard a sound behind her. She turned to see the evil mago, Everard, looking at her.
"Well, well, Deirdre, you are now la Reina de Hadas, I see."
"What do you want, Everard?"
"You!"
"I told you before, I'll never marry you."
"If I can't have you for my wife then no one can!"
With that he raised his right hand; the ring on the ring finger began to glow blood red. A jolt of red lightning went towards her. It engulfed her in a red cloud. When it disappeared la Reina de Hadas was now a swan. Everard laughed at her and left her by the lake. She walked to the edge of the lake and jumped into its waters. Hoping that the spell she had put on herself worked, she waited for dusk. As the sun disappeared out of sight a glow engulfed la Reina de Hadas. After the glow disappeared she stood up in her human form. Her spell had worked, but she knew to be free from Everard's spell, she would either have to marry him or find her true love. She watched the silver moon rise in the east and began to hope she could be freed from this spell.
