We dont want to change the story, but make a new BETTER one. This is the beginning of OUR once upon a time, and happily ever after.
The Book With No Pages
It began on a stormy night at Ever After High. The lightning and a thin candle seemed to be he only source of light for Raven Queen. Her plum colored hair seemed lilac as each lightning striked against the chambers and walls. A book that was only as thick ad her hand landed in her hand from magic that she created. Being the daughter of an evil queen whom was also a witch had its perks.
The book read in thick golden letters 'The Oracle'. The letters curved around the top half of the book, taking up the majority of the space there. Raven opened the book. A single page was there, and the page was blank. She tried magic to reveal the hidden text, but nothing worked. 'Write on the book.' a ghoustly voice whispered into her ear, sending shivers down her spine. However she listerned.
'Raven Queen' she wrote.
The letters sank into the thin page, vanishing without a trace. Raven was startled, but what happened next terrified her. The book a sentence appeared after the words disappeared. It read 'Nice to meet you Raven. ' in cursive format. Raven nearly jumped out of her skin. She took the pen and wrote 'Who are you?' The book closed and the words ontop of the book shimmered. The book itself was somehow alive. It was somewhat a person. It was The Oracle.
Meanwhile...
Apple White walked down the desolated halls of her school in hopes to find her roomate. She hated storms, and since ahe couldnt get any sleep, she wanted to keep her future antagonist company. A lightning bolt knocked the side of the school, sending a rumbling down the halls, and a cabinet falling ontop of the futre Snow White. Apple squeezed her eyes shut, but nothing came in contact with her. Opening one eye, she saw that the cabinet was stuck in midair. It was gently placed back onto the ground by a mysterious entity. That was when Apple noticed the pale blue glow it emitted. A cloaked figure stood in the hallway, not saying a word. A lightning bolt lit up the sky for a second before it made the entire school go into darkness. When the light appeared again, Apple frantically looked for the vanished figure whom sat ontop of the cabinet.
"Looking for me?" a feminine voice asked.
Her voice was soft and smooth like velvet, with a few cracks here and there, like she wasn't used to talking. Long red strands of hair peaked from beneath the black cloak, hiding pale porcelain skin with no blemishes, scars or bruises. Apple looked at the top of the cabinet. The candle which she held had no flame left, which would have came in handy if she wanted to see her saviour.
"Who are you?" Apple asked.
"Who are you?" came her reply.
Apple's eyes widened. The girl not only didn't know who she was, but she also used her voice to mimic her. She must have been a new student to the school. Everyone knew just about everyone at this school. Also, there were only two people at this school with red hair. One being Izzy Hearts, and the other the daughter of Ariel from The Little Mermaid, Serenity. None of them had this shade if red. It seemed to be the color of blood, a deep crimson. A few strands were darker, a few were lighter but overall, her hair was red. It seemed peculiar to Apple. Only Raven, and a few others had magic, but she knew that none of them had red hair.
"I'm Apple White." she said.
There was no reply. The lightning lit up the sky once more, then the girl was gone.
With Raven...
It was beginning to frustrate her. The book continued to ask for the 'other witch. There was none. Raven had called the names of ever magic creature attending the school. None of their names were accepted.
'Do you know the tale of sleeping beauty?' the book 'asked'.
CRASH!
An antique vase broke, perhaps it fell from the storm. A shadowy figure moved over to where Raven sat, reaching for the book. She used her magic on the shadow casting it I to the darkness just in time to read the books message.
'Run!'
