A/N: Thanks in advance for reading and reviewing.
Warning: This story may contain stupidity, OOC-ness, and jokes that are meant to be funny.
It was a normal day in the Grimm household. In other words, Sabrina woke up hating her life. Sabrina wished she were part of a normal family living in a normal house in a normal town, but her wish was not granted, because 'normal' and words such as 'Grimm' and 'Sabrina' didn't belong in the same sentence. When she went down the stairs to eat breakfast, the first thing Puck did was insult her. This was a typical occurence around this time of day, or any time of day, really.
"Hay ugly," he said, using the wrong variety of the word, "what's that on your face?"
She was not in the mood for his stupidity and had prepared a comeback for that exact comment, "Are you talking to yourself again? Because if you are, your not being very nice to yourself are you?" she said, acting as if she were concerned for his sanity and mistakenly using the wrong sort of 'your'.
Nobody seemed to notice their mistakes in speech and at that moment Granny Relda brought the food to the table.
"Ugh, what is that?" Sabrina asked, even though she was pretty sure that she didn't really want to know what it was.
Her grandmother smiled kindly and replied somewhat proudly, "I'm not entirely sure what it is, but it has a wide variety of strange colors doesn't it? It probably won't hurt you, go on and try it."
Of course, Puck and Daphne piled their plates high with the stuff. "This is great stuff, Granny!" Daphne said happily after eating some of it.
Jake, like Sabrina, didn't take any of it. He stared at it for a moment with a look of absolute horror on his face that clearly said he wasn't going to be eating any of that stuff. "Oh, I nearly forgot, I was going to meet someone today for breakfast." Sabrina knew that statement to be a lie, but she wasn't going to ruin his escape. She longed to be able to go with him, but that might seem a little suspicious. As he was leaving he looked back at her and mouthed "I'll bring you something." "Thank you," she mouthed back, making a small 'worship' motion. Luckily nobody else seemed to notice their exchange, as it would have only caused problems that the author does not want to deal with.
Later that morning, after Sabrina had eaten a few bites of normal food and everyone went about their usual Saturday morning activities, a loud crash sounded from outside the house. Naturally, the first thing everyone did was run outside to see what happened. To the family's surprise, there was a large, crater-like hole in the ground. Lying at the bottom of the hole was a girl who looked to be about twelve years old.
"Oh, no, not another one," Jake said, his face growing slightly pale. He knew what horrors occurred every time something like this happened. He quickly made plans to be away from the house as much as possible for the forseeable future-as long as she was in the house, he wouldn't be. He quickly went inside to pack his belongings. Everyone aside from Daphne, Puck, and Sabrina followed him back inside the house, knowing that the plot demanded that they see nothing strange about finding a pre-teen girl in a crater.
Puck went over to the girl and poked her to check whether or not she was alive. Suddenly, the girl opened her strange macaroni-colored eyes, flashed to her feet, and immediately began violently swinging her fists at the fairy boy. She easily knocked Puck out, who had inexplicably forgotten how to fend off an attacker after having approximately four-thousand years of practice doing so.
"Um, what are you doing?" Sabrina asked, as if the girl had done nothing more strange than start dancing around in circles.
The girl suddenly seemed to gain control of herself and said, "Oh, I'm sorry, you startled me. I didn't mean to hurt anyone."
It was quite a lame excuse, but Sabrina felt an odd connection with the girl, so she found that it was very easy to forgive the girl from the pit in the ground. "It's okay. Who are you?" She felt that the question came out a little bluntly, but she reasoned that if people were going to turn up in craters they should be willing to explain themselves.
The girl grinned widely and spun tightly as she jumped into the air with a flourish that spread a glitter into the air around her. She then used the opportunity provided by the sparkle-watching to suddenly spread out her large green wings. "My name is Maria Susanna Butterflypoo."
"Wow, sparkly," Daphne and Sabrina said in awed and freakish unison.
Puck had gotten up by that time and couldn't help but laugh at the girl's silly name, at which she acted very offended, "You dare laugh at me, pheasant?"
Her response only made him laugh more, "First, I think the word you mean is peasant, not pheasant. Second, neither term applies to me. And third, yes I do dare to laugh at you. What kind of name is Butterflypoo?" Sabrina could only stare in surprise at his sudden burst of intelligent speech.
"It is a royal name," the girl insisted, beginning to sound defensive rather than angry.
Daphne knew that Puck was about to say something that would anger her further and had no desire for any further fighting to take place, so she cut off his response to that with one of her own. "Yes, of course it is," she said condescendingly, "Anyway, we were wondering why you were here."
"Oh," she said, sounding somewhat relieved at the change of subject, "I'm here to pretend to be a good friend to the Grimm family and secretly plot to turn you over to the Scarlet Hand after turning you all against each other." She paused for a moment, thinking over what she had said, "Wait, I wasn't supposed to say that. Let me start over." She started crying pitifully, "I w-was forced to run here, b-be-because the S-S-Sc-Scarlet Hand attacked my f-f-family and I barely escaped from them and I don't know where my parents are. It's very t-t-tragic and I d-don't know w-what to do now. I d-don't have anyw-w-where to go."
By the end of her story, the trio was fully convinced that the poor girl needed their help. They reached the decision that they would ask Granny Relda if she could stay with them for a while. Sabrina could already tell that she and Maria Susanna Butterflypoo would be great friends.
