Tale Six

Feathers

Barbara held her head steadying it from the spinning. She looked around her to find she was in a castle dressed in the most beautiful gown she had every seen. After wandering through the halls of the castle she found the thrown rooms were the King beckoned her over. For a moment Barbara had to pause it was Bruce!

"Ah Barbara, my daughter come here I'd like you to meet my new wife and her daughter Troutlet!" He pulled her in a close hug and whispered. "Glad to see I'm not the only one stuck in here. Are you alone?"

Barbara shook her head. "No, Dicks here too, though where I have no idea."

Bruce nodded and took the arm of his new wife. "Well daughter I hope you and Troutlet will get along nicely." He and the new queen walked out of the room leaving the two sisters alone.

Troutlet who was very ugly and bitter put her hands on her hips and with a humph walked out of the room. Barbara shook her head. If Bruce was here did that mean Alfred was in the book too? Barbara hoped not.

That night Bruce came to Barbara's room. The girl raised an eye brow.

"Shouldn't you be with your new wife?"

"She's taking a bath at the moment. How many tales have you gone through?"

Barbara thought for a moment. "About four not counting this one. You?"

"This is my second one. The first tale took forever! God, do you know how annoying a living puppet can be when you stuck in a whale?"

Barbara smiled. "I feel for you Bruce now go we have to see this tale till the end."

Bruce nodded and left. Two weeks later a Prince arrived form a foreign. The Queen had decided that he would marry her daughter. But when the Prince saw Barbara he fell in love with her. Though Dick would never admit that to Barbara's face saying he was merely playing his part.

When the Queen heard of Prince Richard's love for Barbara she was furious and looked Barbara away in the tallest tower. Then she planned a trick for the Prince. The Queen had a lady in waiting tell Richard that Barbara would be standing in the window overlooking the garden, and that he would be able to talk to her form there.

The night was pitching black and Dick didn't realize that he was declaring his love to Troutlet. He promised to marry her and take her far away from the Castle. After hearing his declaration Troutlet pulled a vale over her face and dragged Richard to her godmother who was a wicked fairy.

"Young Prince, this is Princess Troutlet she is my godchild and you have promised to marry her." Said the Fairy.

Finding out what he had done Richard tried to explain and run away but the fairy glued his feet to the floor. Richard crossed his arms.

"Even if you skin me alive, I shall never belong to any one but Barbara!" after saying these words he looked around to make sure Barbara had not heard them.

The Fairy was greatly angered by the prince's statement that she turned him in to a Robin. The Prince finding that he had been turned into a Robin gave a pitiful cry and flew away.

Meanwhile Barbara was weeping bitterly thinking Dick had married Troutlet. But one day a Robin came and perched on a cypress tree outside her window.

"Yo! Hey Babs it's me!" it called to her.

Barbara looked over and held out her hand. The Robin jumped on to it and quickly told her of how he had gotten that way. Barbara couldn't help but grab her sides.

"Ha ha bird brain! How are you going to get out of this one?"

"I don't know." Robin tweeted who was now perched on her shoulder. "You have any ideas?"

"Let's just play this one out." Barbara looked out her window. "And hope for the best. "

Later on Barbara told Robin of how she had been looked away in her room. So every night she and the Robin met and discus ways of securing Barbara's escape. The prince even brought her jewels form his palace. One night the wicked queen found out what was happening. She ordered that sharp pieces of glass should be tied to the trees around the castle. When night came and Robin tried to land on his branch he cut his wings and feet.

Thinking that Barbara had betrayed him in order to leave her room, the dying Robin dragged himself to his nest. By a stroke of luck, a magician was passing by and found him. Bruce looked down at his new clothes.

"Aw man I'm a magician. Oh look a Robin! Maybe I'm should help it."

The Magician took the injured Robin to his home. Bruce nursed the bird back to health. Barbara was in despair at the disappearance of her prince, called out again and again. "Hey Robin, get over here! Where are you?" in a bit of a whisper she'd mumble "please my prince come back to me."

But her Robin never came back to her.

When the King died.

Bruce, "huh?"

The people of his kingdom rose up and attacked the castle. The evil queen was taken prisoner, and Barbara was rescued and crowned as the new queen. Barbara was happy, but all she could think about was finding her Prince Richard.

One knight, she took the emerald bracelets that the blue bird had given her, and left of a secret mission to find him. Meanwhile, the magician who was taking care of the injured Robin went to look for the wicked fairy Soussio.

"The Robin will never become Prince Richard again unless he marries Troutlet." She told him.

Hearing that the magician persuaded the prince to marry the ugly troutlet, to escape the wicked spell. Sadly he agreed to do this and the Prince became human again.

That same day Barbara reached the gates of Richard's castle dressed as a peasant-woman. There she learned that the prince was to marry Troutlet the next day. Barbara felt sad and hurt by Robin's betrayal. But after remembering something Robin had told her she want to meet her rival.

"Madam, if you allow me to sleep at the palace tonight, in the echoing chamber, I will give you these emerald bracelets." Troutlet was so delighted with the gift and immediately agreed. She didn't know the castle well, or that the echoing chamber was beneath the prince's bedroom. Anything Barbara said in this room could be heard by the prince while he lay in bed.

That night, as the prince lay in his bed, Barbara cried sadly to herself.

"How many dangers have we braved together not in just this world but in others? And now I find you to marry Troutlet? How could you be so cruel? Didn't you say you loved me?"

Robin was not asleep but thought he was hearing words form a dream. Confused and bewildered, he ran down to the echoing chamber below. When he entered the room and saw Barbara he trough himself down at her feet. Barbara looked down not knowing what to believe. Finally, the fell into each other's arms.

At that moment, the Magician arrived with a good fairy. They used their powers to help Richard and Queen Barbara. As soon as it was morning, their wedding was announced to the whole palace. Troutlet was furious and ran to see the prince, but the magician and the good fairy quickly changed her into an Ugly turkey.

The prince and his Queen Barbara could think of nothing other than well the next tail that would be trough in. right on time came the whooshing wind and flung them into a new world and new problems.
