Okay to Be Dtfferent
A/N I just thought of this. It's about Snowgre's nephew Arca being sent to Duloc to be with him because he's different but being a thespian isn't the only reason he was sent away by his parents but you'll see that as the fic goes on.....
Arca was scared but sad. His parents who lived in Snowia where Snowgre used to live were sending him away to his uncle to help him find himself since he wasn't like other kids his age.
He was into acting and wanted to be a thespian but his parents thought it was shameful.
He sighed as he was in his room and hugging his stuffed ice dragon that his parents had made for him when he was little. Arca had green skin with snow white fur but creative, loving and kind hearted.
"I wish my parents understood how I felt.
Being a thespian is cool to me but maybe they'll come around but I'm scared about moving. I'm...... not very brave or confident." he said sadly packing stuff and his stuffed dragon in his back pack.
Later that night a carriage showed up at Arca's house but the teen was sad as he got into it and it drove off. He let tears fall as it left Snowia.
But in Far, Far Away Snowgre was worried as he was with Shrek and Artie. He'd gotten a letter from Arca's parents to say he was coming.
"I'm just afraid, that's all like you were when you took me in." he said sipping a latte.
Shrek sighed hearing his twenty year old cousin say that.
"Don't worry you'll be fine Snowg. You've changed since then. You'll be able to help him but you can count on us to help." Shrek reassured him as Snowgre smiled.
Snowgre still lived in the swamp house but since hearing that Arca was coming, he'd built a spare room for him.
"I hope he likes me for who I am." he thought clutching his symbol cane.
Artie understood his friend's concern.
"Don't worry Snowg he'll like you even if you're half blind." the young King reassured him. But as night fell, the carriage went on through forests, towns and lakes. Arca tried to see what was out there but it was harder for him to see in the dark than normal kids his age but he was too worried about being sent away to care.
"I wonder where this uncle of mine lives?" he thought as he fell asleep. But Charming cackled as he saw the carriage on it's way to Duloc and laughed evilly...... But as the early morning sun rose, the carriage had pulled into Far, Far Away for a pit stop as Arca ate a few berries he'd packed for the trip.
But Duloc wasn't so far away.......
