Little Red RideingHood fell in love with the hunter that had saved her from the lycan. Now, her real name was Ethora, and the hunter was Partor. One day they married and had a baby girl with beautiful fern-green eyes that gimered brighter that water on a leaf. They named her, Telimina. The girl grew into a beautiful child then to a young woman. All the men wanted her hand in marrage, dispite her young age only being eighteen. She refused every man but one was so determined to have her. This man was prince Edkneel, a prideful man that would not take no for an answer, but since he disired Telimina so much, he'd hold up his anger and try another day, and if he had a rival, he would sentence them to prison. Telemina, on the other hand, was in no hurry for a man, she's rather be on adventures with her father, or fighting monsters in the woods to protect the village, even challenge an evil witch in a dark castle protected by a fire-breathing dragon. But she knew it was never to be, so she would pretenf in the woods to fight the evil to her disire. She would go deep into the forrest where people have never returned, but she would and this frighted some of the people. "She's a witch!" "She's a shapeshifter!" "No, she's a goddess!" the people said as she would pass by. Her mother, Ethora, didn't beleive that, but she knew her daughter was unusualy safe in the woods Unfortunatly lucky. And Telimina used her "luck" for advanige.
"Telimina, please take this to the kingdom of Trar," her father asked, handing her a bag. "The king told me to tell you because the path is though those woods" She knew that this is what she had been waiting for, exsitment, her fanticy in reality! "Father, I'll be fine! Besides, he's watching over me." she said. "He, who is this 'he' that you speek of Telimina?" her father chuclked with a sly grin. "Is he tall? Is he strong? Does he treat you right?" "I don't really know," she started with a uncertan look in her eye. " For all I know father, it could be a she, I just know it's not luck, but something protecting me. Maybe something wants me to be alive..." "Telimina, if you don't know what it is, then why do you niavly trust it?" Partor asked with concern. She thought about it. "If it wanted to harm me, it should have killed me by now, right?" She looked at her father, who was shocked to hear her resonse. "Just be save, my daughter." he said, giving her a green hooded cape. "I hope this will help you on your journy." Telimina took the cape and put it around her pale neck, flicking her black hair out from between the cape and her, thensaid here goodbyes leaving the house. As she walked, she could hear, horses from behind her. Edkneel, on a white horse stopped her in her steps. "My, my! If it istn't 'Little Green RidingHood! Where are you going with your hood on?" he said with charm, that Telimina hated. "I, Edkneel, am going to the kingdom of Trar by your father's words." she said with the chin up in the air. "But the path is so dangerus! Surely you are not going alone, are you?" Edkneel asked. "Yes, I am. He will help me get there!" Telimnia saw the anger in the pricne's eyes and almosted lauphed. "Who is he? I'll fight him for you!" "It is no one, but my own secret. I have to go now before it gets dark. Farewell prince!" Telimina went down the path with joy and excitment, leaveing the uneasy prince to wonder and ponder on who dared to challeng him for his love. She walked until she stopped to find herself to choose between two paths. "Well, this should'nt be a problem," she thought. "Father gave me a map!" She reached for it in her pocket, but a gush of wind blew it away into a tall tree. Telimina sighed. Knowing that she couldn't climb the tree, she went to the roads and tryed to think of the way. They both had signs, but both with faded letters. The one on the left only read, "...TA...o...P...R...Y" the other read, "...R...f...T...R...". This started to scare her a bit, then started to panic. Maybe this was to much for her first journy, and turned around when she herd a voice."Miss, are you losted?" Telimina looked back and saw a man with long brown hair in a pony tale with light brown eyes. When she faced him, his eyes widened. She already knew his thoughts, of how "beautiful" she was and truned the other way. "Wait miss! I was just asking if you were lost." he said reaching out for her. "Go away! I know what you thought!" she yelled. "Maiden, please, I am dearly sorry for my actions, but I never seen such a beautiful face like you and was only surpised to see one such as your's." said the man. She felt her cheeks blush from his words. "What is your name, stanger?" Telimina asked. "My name is Atora." he said. She turned to him with caution. "You would'nt happen to know where the kingdom of Trar is would you?"
It was evening. Atora held on to Telimina's hand guiding her on the path. "Atora?" she started. "Where are you from?" he was silent, then spoke, "I live in the forrest, alone." he replyed. "Don't you become lonly sometimes?" "Not realy, the animals keep me compiny and like my solitude." He stopped walking, looking over at an abadent inn. "You should spend the night here." Atora warned her. "Wait! It's to dangerous to be out there in the dark without anyone! Stay with me for the night." Telimina suggested tugging on Atora's hand. "I better not, we just met, and it is unwise for a lovely young lady like you to be in the same room as a stranger like me." Atora said coldly. "If you can not be in the inn with me, then can you camp out here? I will wait for you when you are ready to set out again." Telimina tightened her grip in hope that them man would stay. "As you wish, my dear." he said, kissing her hand. Atora opened the door with Telimina behind him making sure there was nothing there to hurt her. The inn was very dusty and had cobwebs hanging everywhere. "I don't like spiders." Telimina mumbled. Atora looked around for something to clean them with. A wooden broom was in the corner of the room, covered in webs and dust. He picked it up and cleaned up a bit. "If you get bord, you can wait outside." Atora said. "I am fine where I am." Telimina said brushing dust off a wooden stool and sat down. After he cleaned, Atora made a quick meal for Telimina and showed her the room he fixed for her to sleep in. "You are very kind, Atora." she said. "I have realised that I have never asked you your name. What is it?" Atora asked. "My name is Telimina. But I have been called 'Little Green Riding Hood, like my mom but with a red hood." she said pointing at her hood. "So your mother is Red Riding Hood!" Atora rubed his chin with a smile. "Yes, this is the very forrest that she went through when a lycan ran into her." she said. "Oh? And tell me this story of Red Riding Hood." Atora looked into Telimina's eyes, deeply, dazeing in them, as she did the same. "Oh, well it was when she was my age..." While this happened, back at home, the prince stormed into the thrown room in anger, staring at his white-bearded father. "Father! Why did you send Telimina into the woods? She is just one girl, mine to wed, and is in love with a mystery man in the woods!" Edkneel screemed in anger. "My son, the girl is a merical. She is the only one who can go in and out of the woods alive unlike the other men." the old king said. "But the man..." "Edkneel! If she is in love with a man in the woods, she should be able to love this man under my laws." The prince became outrage. "Your laws are foolish! I am the prince of this land and as prince, I deserve the girl I pleese! None of the other girls' beauty can not even compare to her's, none of there's can brighten the sky like her, hell, none of them can hold a candle to the beauty of her smile! But here she is with a man that is not even a villiger in the kingdom and you let her be with that and not with someone of royal blood? This is lutacris!" Edkneel glared at his father. "Son of Medomorr, the girl of which you speek of, is not to be yours!" the sorsuris Atheria said. "You hold your tonge you evil wench!" Edkneel choke the woman out of heated anger, making other women pry his hands away from her neck. "That is enouph Edkneel!" the king commanded. "No, that is not enouph, father! For many years, I have seen men trying to take Telimina away from me and for many years, she regected them, I will not be one of them! I will be the one even if this witch of yours says other whys! Your laws, your sorserus, and everyone in this kingdom are against me and my destiny with the girl named 'Little Green Riding Hood'!" The prince drawed out his sword and pressed the side to his father's throut. "No longer will you reign this land." Edkneel said backing up. "Gaurdes, put this man in prison for his secrety of being a lycan!" Atheria's eye widened as the knights carred the king away. "This kingdom is mine now, and as soon as Telimina returns, she will be my bride." "Edkneel! This is going to far! You are going down a dark path that you cant return from!" she warned him. "The path of power! I can rule the kingdom as I pleese! Maids! Fetch me some wine!" he commanded sitting on his father's thrown, the one he had deseeved.
Telimina woke up from her sleep hearing the sound of a loud howling noise. Seeing that Atora wasn't in the room, she looked out side. He wasn't there. She felt fear, then a voice in her head told her that this is what she had wanted all this time, adventer. She looked for a stick, branch, anything to protected her and Atora with and found an onl rusted sword. "Perfict!" she thought. She picked it up and reliesed it was way to heavy to pick up. Curseing her weak arms, the noise became louder, like if the thing causeing such noise was coming to the inn. Telimina didn't know what to do, without her father and the man, Atora with her to keep her safe, she, for the first time in her life, was scared of looseing her life. "What am I to do?" she thought almost crying, and closed her eyes so if she died, she would see it coming. "Is this my end?" At this point, the noise was very thundering, like if the beast of the soind was beside her. Then, it stopped. Telimina opened one teary eye and look around in the dark. Barely able to see anything, she ran into the inn, her brody trembled with this uncertan fear she hadn't felt in a long time. A brave man's enemy, fear, the painful reality that she wasn't being watched entered her head, and the fear grew and grew til she cryed and ran out the door screeming, "Atora! Where are you!? Please come out where you are hiding! Please! I am scared!" Telimina listened for a sound. "I'll protect you..."whispered a voice. With a jolt of terror, Telimina ran in side the cabin and stayed up the rest of the night watch the window to see if the voice followed her. To her terror, she soon heard a rusle in the bushes. She almosted would have never relised that it was now dawn and Atora walked out brushing off his sholders and looked to her direction. "Well, I can see your up, my dear!" he said. "Atora, there was something in the woods! I did not see it but it was very scary to hear! Did you see it?" Telimina asked in frantic terror. "A noise? Ha! That was just a simple wolf, they are very loud you know." said the man. The girl then smiled and hugged Atora. "Thank you brave man, I wish to be as brave as you." The man looked at the pale beauty. "My, my. I may be brave but even the bravest of the brave can get scared or they are a blind, bold and fooling man." Atora said. "You could never be human if you were frightened." "But a lycan has fear of us, but the are not human, I guess this means that they are just savige." said Telimina. "That is not what I meant," Atora started, "they that go to be prased for bravory and not for other's protection, are the ones who are foolish." Telimina looked down in shame. "We should get going, Telimina." Atora informed her. "Put on your hood and let us leave." As soon as she put the green hood over her head, there was a roar of thunder, trumipting over their heads. "If we start walking now, there is a chance that we can make it to Trar before it starts to rain hard." Atora said holding on to Telimina's hand.
