Prelude

"YOU DID THIS TO ME!"

"I'm sorry!"

"YOU TURNED ME INTO A NIGHTMARE!"

"I didn't know that it would affect anyone else!"

"I'M A BEAST! I'M A MONSTER!"

"I'm sorry!"

"YOU'LL REGRET THIS!"

I already am.

"I CURSE YOU, FAERIE! YOU MADE A BEAST SO I WILL MAKE YOU ONE AS WELL !"

"Don't do this!"

"YOU WILL BECOME THE BEAST YOU ARE INSIDE!"

"Please! No!"

"WHAT?"

"Nothing happened."

"I CAN SEE THAT!"

"Huh."

"WHAT DID YOU DO?"

"Nothing."

"YOU DID SOMETHING!"

"Didn't, actually."

"BE TERRIFIED OF ME!"

I am. Can't you see me trembling? Can't you see me fighting the urge to run?

"I CURSED YOUR SISTER!"

"Which one?" Not Fang, or Falcon, or Raindrop, or Topaz, or Twilight, or Crimson, or Tranquility, or Peace, or Lotus, or Vine, or Silk, please, please, let her be lying!

"THE ONE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS MESS!"

Fang! "TAKE IT OFF OF HER!"

"CAN'T MAKE ME!"

"YOU MONSTER! WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER?"

"YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW?"

"TELL ME!"

"CAN YOU HANDLE IT?"

"TELL ME, YOU BEAST!"

"SHE'S A…"

"A WHAT?"

"A…"

"TELL ME!"

"A… CAT!"

"A… cat? Seriously?"

"SHE WILL BE IN AGONY FOR THE REST OF HER DAYS!"

"Dude, she's a cat Faerie."

"WHAT?"

"Shes…A… Cat… Faerie."

"—"

"You practically gave her a Christmas present."

"——"

Sigh. "Please calm down."

"——"

"You're starting to give me a headache."

"—OOOOOOOO… WAIT? YOU ARE IN AGONY?"

"I guess so, yeah."

"YES! MY MISSION IS COMPLETE!"

"Yayyyyyyy."

"LATER, SUCKERS!"

"Joy."

"I'M OFF TO FIJI!"

"Try not to scare all the seashells."

"HAVE FUN BEING A DEER!"

"Sure… Wait, what?"

*Beast leaves. Fallen looks down, see's she's a white doe*

"—"

When this one-shot started out, it was actually supposed to be serious, believe it or not.

It was supposed to be the prelude to a book in a series I'm trying to write.

Obviously, it became rather silly, and reminds me of Calvin and Hobbs (I'm not sure why). But I hope you enjoyed it.

My series starts out focusing on one of my favorite Faerie tales, the Twelve Dancing Princesses. In my version, they're all half Faerie (on their mother's side). They go through the first book as the TDPs, but at the end decide to split up.

One of the Twelve stars in each book, hence, twelve books. Each book has the same basic summary of a Faerie tale (except for one myth (Hades and Persephone) and one ballet (Swan Lake)).

They are (In order of birth): Crimson (half Royal Faerie), Twilight (half Light Faerie), Silk (half Clothing Faerie), Topaz (half Gem Faerie), Vine (half Tree Faerie), Fang (half Cat Faerie), Falcon (half Bird Faerie), Fallen (half Deer Faerie, and the one this one-shot was originally written for), Lotus (half Flower Faerie), Tranquility (half Moon Faerie), Peace (half Water Faerie), and Raindrop/Thunder (half Rain Faerie).

Please review! This one is especially important to me, because (even if this is not how I normally write) I'm actually (kinda) putting out part of a book that I hope to finish (except that I'm gonna have to rewrite this).

So… yeah. Please press that little button at the bottom!

Thanks!
