Hello, everyone! This is my first FanFiction, so here is some basic need to know stuff:

Any flames will be put out by the local fire department.

Constructive criticism does not have to knock, it can walk right right in.

After it wipes its feet, of course.

Sabrina is 17, and Puck looks that age.

Daphne is 13, Red looks that age.

Briar IS alive!

Disclaimer: I own nothing in this chapter. Excuse me while I hold Kraven the Deceiver and cry in a corner.

That's about it. Enjoy!

Red POV

"Class, your homework tonight..."

Yes, please keep talking, Mrs. Smintle. All of your students are very interested. I mean, look, your lecture is so wonderful, many students had nap attacks from all the excitement.

BBBBRRRRIIIIIIIIIIINNNNGGGGGG!

"Children, you are dismissed. Please go."

'Yes'es and whoops echoed through the room. I rolled my eyes inwardly, gathered my belongings, and lingered a second. After the entire class was gone, I pulled my red hood over my head and skulked to my locker. A few years ago I'd upgraded from that cape I used to wear because it didn't seem very school appropriate. I now wore red Converse All-Star High Tops, a red baggy hoodie, a red shirt, and dark, bleached skinny jeans.

"There you are, Red! I looked everywhere for you!"

Ah, Daphne. Cheerful as ever. Her black ponytail bounced with enthusiasm. She was wearing a cheerful shirt with a rainbow on it, in a cute but not 5-year-old-ish way. She had on white skinny jeans and bubblegum pink Converse. Daphne in a nutshell.

"Sup, Daph?"

"We have a new case, that's what! Grab your stuff from your locker. Sabrina and Puck are waiting in the car."

"Kay, I'll meet up with ya in the parking lot."

"Hurry, alright?"

"Okay, Daph."

Pushy, much? I laughed at my best friend, then hid in the shadows near my locker. When I opened it, a small, pink piece of paper fell out.

"Huh?"

I picked it up tentatively, as if it were a bomb. Slowly, I brought it up to my face.

It read,

"Rhyme nor reason can I find,

You are the way I would spend my time,

Violets are blue,

Your hoodie is red,

Yes, that's the one you put on your head.

Here is a rose for you, my dear,

Maybe sometime you could meet me here?"

Ugh. My two least favorite least favorite things: roses and sucky love poems. I crumpled up the note and tossed it into the trash. I hate roses. Daphne called me crazy, and Puck said I would never have a boyfriend. Sabrina just smiled knowingly for a quick second and winked.

Oh well. I fished around in my locker and found something thorny. I pulled out a red rose. Oh gosh.

I hid in the shadows and "shadow traveled," as Daphne calls it (otherwise known as walking in the shadows,) all the way out to the car. Well, at least I had a case to occupy me.

You see, I'm part of a special family. We are the Grimms, and we are fairy-tale detectives. When Jack fell down and broke his crown, we helped file lawsuit against the crown makers. When the three blind mice lost their glasses (again,) we helped find who stole them. When- well, you get the idea. Don't believe that all this fairy-tale stuff is real? Ask me. I'm Little Red Riding Hood.

I hopped into the car unnoticed. Daphne was texting while Sabrina and Puck were arguing. Just for kicks, I leaned forward and honked on the horn of Puck's car. Sabrina and Daphne just jumped, but you should've heard Puck scream. After we were done giggling at Puck (much to his despair,) we drove off to meet up with Granny Relda at the Sacred Grounds.

AN- I have a request. If I do not get 5 reviews, I will not post the next chapter. I need to have at least 5 new reviews each chapter before I update!

And special thanks to Curlscat, my beta and now wonderful FanFiction friend.
