I smiled as a I walked through the woods I had just been to the market to trade some silk for spices.

I was very happy because today was my birthday and papa had invited everyone in the village to come celebrate with us.

I walked into the village that I had called home for so many years and it was , I knew everything about this place and all the people that have lived here for as long as I can remember.

Thats the thing nothing ever changes here its always the same thing every day and Im sick of it .

I wanted to be free and explore the realms I want to live not just survive.

My father has always been there to support me but I could tell he does not completely agree with my wishes .

I think he's scared he will lose me just like he lost mama.

She died when I was five years old because she got caught between the evil queen and her crusade to kill snow white .

She died for what she believed in she wouldn't back down and im proud of what she did . Even though she wasn't there to raise me she taught to me never to give up that everything was once deemed impossible until someone made it possible.

I finally saw the little cottage at the end of the stream I walked up the pathway leading to the door and then opened it .

I walked straight into the living room which had always been my favorite room expecting to see my papa sitting on his chair next the fire and reading a good book but he wasn't there.

I looked around the room noticing for the first time that the fire was not lit but looked like it had been blown out by the wind.

" papa" I shouted into the house when I got no reply I shouted again while walking into the kitchen .

I screamed once I saw the horror that was before me there lying on the floor dead and covered in blood was my papa.

My knees went weak as I knelt before his limp body that was a few hours ago full of life.

"papa no papa please you said you would never leave me you promised " I said withering as my body racked with sobs.

I covered my father with my body and sobbed with all I had until I heard a faint giggle I looked up to see a figure that I had not seen before in the corner of the room.

The man giggled again and I stood up trying to make myself look fearsome which clearly wasn't working.

" SHOW YOURSELF YOU COWARD DID YOU DO THIS TO HIM DID YOU DO THIS TO MY PAPA" I screeched at the person.

"no need to shout dearie " he said while steping out of the shadows pulling the hood that was covering his face down.

I gasped at what I saw he was horrible his skin was a sickly golden green his teeth were croocked and yellow and his eyes were like black holes empty and hallow.

This man was the definition of a beast from the way he looked right down to the way he acted.

"why did you do this ? Why are you here" I was crying again.

He smiled at me and somehow that was the most scariest part of him the fact that he could act like everything was okay when it wasn't.

The fact that he had just murdered my father in cold blood and he was okay with it .

"I did it for you " he said smiling at me .

" he was holding you back from all the potential you possess" .

I had no Idea what he was talking about what potential could I a small , weak girl from the enchanted forest have .

As if he had read my thoughts he turned to me his eyes gleaming with happines

" he never told you did he he never told you about your heritage" .

I was confused what was he talking about. He smiled at me again and said your special raven I had never been special before average at best.

"that got you interested didn't it dearie" I was fuming with rage I had enough I walked up to him grabbed his throat and pushed him against the wall.

"tell me everything you know" I whispered and tried to sound threating he grabbed my hand and shoved me away from him.

"you want me to tell you what I know okay then but just remember you asked for it".

"Tell me " I interrupted.

" Its not something I can tell you its something I can show you but only if you come with me" he said walking towards the door.

I hesitated to follow him what was he talking about I had no idea but if I didn't follow him I would never know what was there to hold onto I had nothing left now.

"you come with me dearie and you'll find out who you are"that was my breaking point I walked towards him and followed him out the door leaving my fathers body behind leaving everything behind .

Years later
