My first EAH fic and second here in FanFiction. I hope you like. And sorry grammar errors
Through the large office's windows it was possible see the majestic sunset in the Enchanted Forest. The orange and yellow horizon giving way to night in all its glory. The last sunlight rays of the day invaded the room pouring its weak and tired light inside, but it was the only source of light that the room received too. And it was in this room that Headmaster Grimm was finishing his last day jobs. The sound of his fountain pen writing on paper was the only thing to break the silence and monotony of his work since with classes ended for the day students were in the Village of Book End or in their dorm rooms (which were far away from the Headmaster Grimm's office ) leaving school basically empty.
Grimm was one of the few school employees still working today. After all, when you drive school which too represents the future of all the Fairy Tales, you have to get used to dealing with hard work and little rest. But it wasn't usually a problem for the Headmaster Grimm. His work was his proudest. Knowing that he was helping to keep something as important as continuity of Fairy Tales made him feel accomplished as nothing more could do. However lately he felt increasingly the its weight over him. His job, or duty, wasn't more as before.
Why? Well, it was because he was now obliged to see years of tradition being threatened before his eyes. Centuries of work threatening to crumble like a decaying building. All he struggled to maintain and build becoming as fragile as a cards castle before a storm. And Headmaster Grimm knew very well who was responsible for it, or better: responsibles.
Those students who called themselves The Rebels. Refusing to follow their destiny, putting at risk the integrity and security of all stories. Why couldn't they just follow the script? People spend their whole lives trying to find their purpose and reason for being. They as children and successors of the fairy tales characters were born with their clear purpose.
But instead of gratitude they just refused it. Wanting, according to themselves, write their own story. Do they thought that by changing their end they were also affecting all the other characters in their story? Of course not! They were just selfish brats thinking only of themselves, not the consequences of their choices or the other people.
But, of course despite annoying the Rebels weren't a threat, or at least wouldn't be if not for someone. Raven Queen. Daughter of Evil Queen and, somehow, leader and inspiration of the other rebels. In a way was she who started this whole "rebel thing". She decided not to be the next Evil Queen. She who brought the idea to others to change their destiny.
The same idea which his annoying brother had once. Fortunately he was now properly locked in the Vault and incommunicable at the moment. But that wasn't much consolation now that Raven decided (unknowingly) follow his brother footsteps.
Harming students and calling others to this ridiculous cause, diverting good students from their duties. Madeline, her best friend, was an example. The energetic and smiling girl has potential to be the next perfect Mad Hatter. But because of Raven's bad influences she began to question her fate too. How long until all students wanting to rewrite their stories too?
This way was a time matter until all Fairy Tales were all ruined and destroyed by the recklessness of these young people. Mainly Raven. She had started it all, and she be from an important story also weighed in her favor. In any case she was a strong presence among the rebels. If she followed her destiny surely the Rebels would have less voice. Wouldn't be as strong and probably would dissolve soon.
Director Grimm couldn't force Raven to fulfill her destiny and he knew it. His attempt to guide Raven to "evil way" with the help her friends and mates, despite the apparent initial success when she turned him into a chicken turned out to be a failure. Apparently she was just irritated by the others trying to decide her destiny and not the instinct of Evil surfacing.
But he couldn't just see the chaos to settle in school to after destroy the Enchanted World (or worlds). The gray-haired man looked out the window. The sun has disappeared leaving the orange sky and still no moon, eerily empty. Almost like a bad omen announcing the beginning of the end. The Fairy Tales end.
Headmaster Grimm let out a deep breath he did not even know he was holding. He would have to take providences. Hard providences. It would not be the first time that he did, and this doesn't make it any easier. But that was it. For the greater good and safety of fairy tales he had to do it.
And here is. How EAH is still recent and we doesn't know a lot about the cartoon yet, I will wait more informations about EAH are available before to post other chapter. But I have a idea of how I want do this story. And please, feel free to comment. To know you like my story is important to me.
