"Henry stop it! Now come on we're late for your appointment. Say goodbye to Ms. Higurashi." Her voice was cold and left no room for argument. Henry merely glared, yet nodded. He knew there was no use denying her.

Not now, she was evil after all.

With a sigh and slumped shoulders he looked up at the woman he ran into, she was pretty. Fit a princess to a t. Pale fair skin, raven black hair...if he hadn't found Snow White already he would have thought her to be her! He also knew he couldn't let the evil queen see the book, not yet...

"I'm sorry miss Higurashi...here don't forget your book!" She blinked as he shoved the large book into her hands and ran off. His mother trailing after him.

"Er. What?" She merely blinked down at the large worn book, feeling the tingle of magic that it gave off.

What had she gotten herself into now?
