I promise, this will be the last story I begin before I finish the other 2. I will finish those 2 in time, but I need the inspiration for those back. It should return soon. :) I was watching "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" today [and, right now], and I thought of this story. I saw that someone already put up a story like this, so I need to say that I am, in no way, copying that writer's story. I am, however, suggesting that you read that one as well as this one. It's called, "Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs II: Revenge of the Evil Queen" by judygumm. I haven't read it yet, but it has a few reviews, some follows and favorites. The summary is what intrigues me. Anyway, onto the story.
Snow White beamed with happiness and pride as she gazed down at the little baby in her arms. The baby girl had dark brown hair and bright brown eyes. She had her mother's skin complexion and her small button nose.
Ferdinand smiled down at his family. He looked at his wife. "What shall we name her, Snow White?"
Snow thought a moment, and then she smiled at her daughter. "Olivia. Princess Olivia." Ferdinand nodded in agreement.
The young princess was loved by her entire kingdom. As she grew up, she spread love and peace wherever she went. Olivia always went out into the kingdom and helped the villagers with their housework and things. Then, she would go back to the castle and helped her mother and the maids clean and cook.
But, Olivia also watched her father as he trained with the royal guards and learned some fighting moves. She never planned to use any of the fighting moves she'd seen because she never planned on picking up a sword. But, she still wanted to know in case anything bad happened.
One day, while Snow White was enjoying some tea on a balconey, she accidentally overheard some maids gossipping. "Did you hear about that old queen, Grimhilde?" The very mention of her stepmother's name made Snow White's gut clench in fright. Even if she hadn't heard anything about her stepmother since Ferdinand had revived her, the Evil Queen still gripped fear and agony in Snow's heart.
She listened closely to what the maids were saying. "I heard that she's still alive somewhere. Just living as an old maid or something." Queen Snow White let out a small breath that she didn't know she was holding.
Quickly, she set down her small cup of tea and made her way to the throne room, where her husband would be at this time of the day. She smiled when she saw him sitting on his throne, talking animatedly with one of the guards.
When Ferdinand saw Snow White standing there, he politely dismissed the guard, telling him they would talk another time. He turned his full attention to her, and saw the troubled look that had crossed her face. "Snow White, my love, what's wrong?"
"Oh, Ferdinand..." Snow sighed sadly. "I'm just scared. I overheard some maids talking, and they said that... my stepmother was still alive." She looked down at the marble floor and sniffled softly. "What if she tries to come back and kill me? Or, Olivia?"
Ferdinand quickly stood and embraced his wife in a loving hug. She cried into his shoulder as he held onto her. "You don't have to worry about her, my dear. I'll send some guards to search for her in the neighboring kingdoms." He lfited Snow's face to look at him. "I promise you, I won't allow the Evil Queen to harm any of us."
Snow White smiled warmly at him. "Thank you, Ferdinand."
Almost immediately, the word quickly spread of the search for any trace or sight of the Evil Queen. The guards were on constant patrol, searching every inch of the kingdom and as much of the other kingdoms as they could. The King, Queen, and Princess were heavily guarded, as well.
While having tea with her mother one day, Olivia sighed sadly. "Mother, why do we have to have the guards watch over us like this? Are we in danger?"
Snow White slowly set down her teacup. "We could be, dear. Please, just know that this is for our protection. Your father and I love you very much, and we don't want you to get hurt."
"Ok, Mother. I understand." Olivia nodded, though she didn't really understand the situation completely. She sipped her tea slowly, feeling dread fill her mind.
