Ending Credits for TLM:
Authors note: The end...
Oh my gosh thats it...Im done...*PSYCHOTIC GIGGLING* dude as much as I loved this story, I mean I got to write about Jenny again! But I'm so done with mermaids and Ever like you wouldn't believe it. Like no. The allure is gone XD
So I'm going to start at the end of every tale I write, explain how my story is like this tale.
If you don't know (and if you do...then you DON'T need to read this), "The Little Mermaid" is a well-known fairy tale by the Danish author Hans Christian Andersen about a young mermaid willing to give up her life in the sea and her identity as a mermaid to gain a human soul and the love of a human prince. In my story I have Ever a sprite whose willing to give up everything to be with Jared, although she doesn't want to be human, she gives up her identity and her home on the Fae plane for him.
Many people don't know hat this tale is truly awful. In the story, (If you know already you can skip this) The Little Mermaid dwells in an underwater kingdom with her father (the sea king or mer-king), her grandmother, and her five sisters. Her five sisters are each born one year apart. When a mermaid turns 15, she is permitted to swim to the surface to watch the world above, and when the sisters become old enough, each of them visits the upper world every year. As each of them returns, the Little Mermaid listens longingly to their various descriptions of the surface and of human beings.
When the Little Mermaid's turn comes, she rises up to the surface, sees a ship with a handsome prince, and falls in love with him from a distance. A great storm hits, and the Little Mermaid saves the prince from nearly drowning. She delivers him unconscious to the shore near a temple. Here she waits until a young girl from the temple finds him. The prince never sees the Little Mermaid.
The Little Mermaid asks her grandmother if humans can live forever and if they could breathe under water. The grandmother explains that humans have a much shorter lifespan than merfolks' 300 years, but that when mermaids die they turn to sea foam and cease to exist, while humans have an eternal soul that lives on in Heaven. The Little Mermaid, longing for the prince and an eternal soul, eventually visits the Sea Witch, who sells her a potion that gives her legs in exchange for her tongue (as the Little Mermaid has the most enchanting and beautiful voice in the world). The Sea Witch warns, however, that once she becomes a human, she will never be able to return to the sea. Drinking the potion will make her feel as if a sword is being passed through her, yet when she recovers she will have two beautiful legs, and will be able to dance like no human has ever danced before. However, it will constantly feel like she is walking on sharp knives and it will feel as though they must be bleeding. In addition, she will only obtain a soul if she finds true love's kiss and if the prince loves her and marries her, for then a part of his soul will flow into her. Otherwise, at dawn on the first day after he marries another woman, the Little Mermaid will die brokenhearted and disintegrate into sea foam.
The Little Mermaid drinks the potion and meets the prince, who is mesmerised by her beauty and grace even though she is mute. Most of all he likes to see her dance, and she dances for him despite her suffering excruciating pain. When the prince's father orders his son to marry the neighboring king's daughter, the prince tells the Little Mermaid he will not because he does not love the princess. He goes on to say he can only love the young woman from the temple, who he believes rescued him. It turns out that the princess is the temple girl, who had been sent to the temple to be educated. The prince loves her, and the wedding is announced.
The prince and princess marry, and the Little Mermaid's heart breaks. She thinks of all that she has given up and of all the pain she has suffered. She despairs, thinking of the death that awaits her, but before dawn, her sisters bring her a knife that the Sea Witch has given them in exchange for their long hair. If the Little Mermaid slays the prince with the knife and lets his blood drip on her feet, she will become a mermaid again, all her suffering will end, and she will live out her full life.
However the Little Mermaid cannot bring herself to kill the sleeping prince lying with his bride, and she throws herself into the sea as dawn breaks. Her body dissolves into foam, but instead of ceasing to exist, she feels the sun; she has turned into a spirit, a daughter of the air. The other daughters tell her she has become like them because she strove with all her heart to obtain an immortal soul. She will earn her own soul by doing good deeds and she will eventually rise up into the kingdom of God..
Yeah I know right sad as fuck.. but thats how the story goes. My similarities?
I made Ever have siblings like I showed in chapter 9. I also think that Ever's story is a lot like Ariel's. I mean Ever left a lot behind, as did Ariel. Jared like the prince, friend zoned Ever/Ariel. And Mina was the girl from the temple. I also made Ever a great dancer like Ariel, and when she busted her glass table, you had the glass driving through her feet. I know it was lame but its all I could come up with. I thought it would be neat to make Mina the girl from the Temple because in the story the girl from the temple isn't a jerk. She fell in love with the prince too, she just found Jared/Prince. Like in Unenchanted the story changes, so I made Mina the "prince" who gets saved my the mermaid on a stormy night. Like Ariel saves the prince and is found washed up on shore. Now the Coven are her "sisters" and the sea Hag is both the Fae Queen/Theresa. Because the coven gives Ever the Knife, and Maeve gives Ever the chance to cross over and Theresa gives her the knife as well. She is told if she kills the prince/Jared her suffering will end. But thats not the case, Ever/Ariel can't kill the Prince/Jared, so she commits suicide. Ever's death may not have been suicide but she couldn't let Jared die. Now I didn't include the daughters of the air crap. But yeah that's how the story is like the Tale.
THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR READING MY STORY AND STICKING WITH IT FOR SO LONG! THANK YOU FOR FAVORITING MY STORY GUYS! I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH, THE ONLY NEGATIVE REVIEWS I GOT, WAS WHEN NOUF ASKED ME WHAT WAS WORNG WITH CHAPTER 14, WHEN I ACCIDENTALLY POSTED A THING OF SNAP SHOTS INSTEAD OF THE ACTUAL CHAPTER. AND THAT WASNT EVEN NEGATIVE! AND CECE ABOUT THE LAST CHAPTER WITH THE DIALOGUE. I DIDNT GET A SINGLE TRUE NEGATIVE REVIEW OUT OF 1OO+ REVIEWS. AND FOR THAT THANK YOU! :D
Its been a long time since I've been in a fandom. (The ones that I have been in, the members grew up and well we don't talk anymore) and I'm thankful for being able to be a part of this fandom thank you guys :) I promised I would finish this story this summer and I have! I plan on/and I have been working on the JCB. I don't know when I'll be posting that first chapter. It will be a short story, so the chapters will be longer, so it maybe longer to put up. Thank you again Leah for supporting me, Gabby for convincing me to post. Camila, Nouf, Delly, CeCe, Alysia, Guest and last but not least Fluffy, for supporting me.
Jo Jo, I know its been difficult. But I'm glad we've made it through. I'm so glad you convinced me to post. I can't wait to write the rest of our stories in the future :)
And now I ask a special favor from all of you. I went through and reread TLM today from start to finish. And I would like it if y'all could too, and tell me what y'all think too? I want to know what y'all liked and didn't like. So I can hopefully improve, and become a better writer And please don't say update more often lol, I try my best already to do so. And in my opinion...I think I could improve my grammar definitely. Being more patient I regret Chapter 33, to make the story more like the tale, I think I should have stressed the point with pain of dancing, I mean that was weak. Lol I don't know if I should have brought my own series into this honestly. I think there were times I got boring with the imagery and details, I felt like Dickens in when he takes 2 pages to describe butter on toast lol.
I'll be adding a extra chapter later on answering reviews but that is it for this story.
I know its a lot, but if you could please that would be awesome and now, my pretty princesses, {Its what I call my team mates in colorguard} I leave you with these Deleted scenes and one Bonus scene.
Kiss the Girl (I realized I didn't have this moment! How can you have the little mermaid and not think of kiss the girl?)
Jared stood off to the side watching teenagers jump and grind and dance to the beat of the music. His eyes searched the room, he had gone to the bathroom, for a moment and when he got back Mina was no where. This didn't bother him however. He just assumed that Mina had been taken by Nan, and he was was right. He smirked finding her. Mina was dancing purposefully like an idiot in front of Elena and Nan. His heart did a flip flop. She looked so perfect right then, god it was driving him mad not being able to kiss her. He had noticed a couple of appreciative nods Mina had gotten from a couple of boys and he couldn't help but feel cocky. That's MY date! He thought smugly. "Dude what are you doing?"
Jared jumped, "what-"
He turned around to see Nix behind him. "I'm uh-I was looking for Mina. And look there she is-" he wanted to walk over there but he couldn't. Suddenly the song ended, and another song began, Jared watched as couples unknowingly changed their tunes and body languages. It was more calm, and sweeter almost.
"Dude go and ask Mina to dance!" Nix stressed amused almost.
"What-"
"Go. Dance. With. Your. Date." He emphasized shoving him into the throng of people. Jared glared at him, as he nearly fell backwards. Quickly regaining his composure he quickly scanned the room for Mina.
There she was, he saw her, standing not far away. She swayed silently to the music, Nan had took off with Brody and Nix had swept Elena away leaving her alone. Damn that nixie is fast...
She was silent watching the crowd, as he walked up to her she smiled up at him. Making his insides quiver, "hey." Was all he could manage.
"Hey." She whispered, he held out his hand and Mina grinned and took his, pulling her closer to him. Mina sighed in bliss, and rested her head on his shoulder. She didn't have anything to say. Which Jared liked in a way, savoring the tender moment in silence. From the first day he met her he knew that there was something about her, that made her different. He hadn't quite figured it out, but whatever she had, he wanted, needed even. And as long as he had been alive, he couldn't remember ever wanting to-no. He couldn't remember ever dying to try and kiss a girl before until Mina. Even though he could kiss her now when they were alone, there were times where he was dying to kiss her. Like now...he wanted to kiss this girl.
Yes, he caved finally after trying to fight it for so long since he met her. He wanted her. At the fairy tale dance, in the storage room, in the forest, right now...he looked down at her. Mina looked up at him and smiled. He always wondered if she wanted him too Back then. But he had been to scared to try. A voice had always told him. It's possible she wants you too... But and there's one way to ask her...
It don't take a word, not a single word
Go on and kiss the girl...
He remembered painfully when she gasped in the forest when he had first thought about doing so. But that gasp, he had stopped himself. That voice in his head chastised him that day. Seriously!? Your going to be that shy!?
Ain't that sad...it's such a shame...your never truly going to know now aren't ya? And then she got off of him and the moment was over. Too bad, you've missed the girl...He had thought she didn't want him to, but he had been wrong then. And now that voice was telling him to go on and kiss the girl!
Mina swayed to the tune happily. She had never been more happier, but she really wanted Jared to kiss her. But she was kinda chicken. What if Jared doesn't want her to do that? You know PDA, could ruin everything that they had created... But seriously if he were going to kiss her. Now would be his moment. Boy, he had better do it soon! She begged inwardly. No time would be better, the lights were dim and low. And this slow dance was perfect! All she needed was a perfect sweet kiss to end it all on...but she wasn't going to say a word.
Until he kissed Mina.
Elena watched Jared and Mina, and sighed. "Stay out of it.." Nix chuckled into her hair, kissing her head. Elena sighed, "it's just! Ahhhh! It's driving me crazy! Like I just want them to kiss! Is that so wrong! But it looks like Jared's too shy. And he Ain't gonna kiss the girl."
Nix sighed, "Ain't that sad?" Elena asked.
"it's such a shame." He echoed amused still.
"Too bad, you're gonna miss the girl." Elena tisked.
"Don't be scared..." A voice in Jared's head screamed practically.
You better be prepared for the consequences that may follow...but it would be worth it...Go on and kiss the girl...
He tilted Mina's head up, Mina's heart stopped. She smiled encouragingly.
Don't stop now...that voice repeated...Go on and kiss the girl...
Finally he did, what he meant to be a short and sweet, turned out anything but. Elena squealed in delight in Nick ear. "LOOK!"
Nix, and Brody and Nan who were near by, looked at what she was pointing at.
"Oh my-" Nan broke off speechless.
"He did it!" Elena beamed. "I'm so proud of you Jared." Nix rolled his eyes. "Alright. If you don't mind Id rather be the one making out, and not watching it." Sweeping Elena away. Nan and Brody watched in shock, Brody felt a little like he had been punched in the gut...while Nan was floored...as Jared kissed his girl...
Ever's Temptation:
Ever closed the door behind her, the look of Jared's face burned into her memory. In the end it was Elena who had driven her home not Jared like she had hoped. She was amazed with herself, what had she been expecting? Jared not to lose it over Mina being lost at sea? He had been grateful to know that the she had "protected Mina." She wondered what would happen when he found out she was the reason that Mina was possibly dead. She didn't want her dead though that would mean losing Jared all over again until Charlie was of age and she didn't want to wait that long. She wanted Jared back now, she just hoped that Mina you know would wash up on shore and like maybe have amnesia or something. She laughed yeah right with her luck, she'd pitiably remember it all and she'd tell Jared as well. Successfully having Jared hate her for the rest of her life. Her heart sunk, a bitter sweet anger boiled in her stomach. She narrowed her eyes, Mina Grimm, would pay if she did that. After everything she had done for Jared, he should think twice before he'd leave her for good. She thought of her wedding vows to him, well the ones she was going to say to him if he hadn't stood her up at the alter... She silently seethed, picking up the nearest lamp near her she threw it at the wall. She proceeded to destroy whatever she could get her hands on. She destroyed her furniture, her rooms, by the time she was done, her apartment looked like a tornado with tiger claws hit it. She fell onto a discarded couch cushion her heart aching it felt like when you were really thirsty and your throat hurt. Well that's how it felt her heart was dry, and cracking.
Deleted Scene:
Man I hate this place when its late at night, Jenny complained inwardly. It was like a scene from Scooby Doo, like in the Ghost of Captain Cutler, except without all the humor. The fig rolled into the bay, and it quickly began thick like pea soup. Why is it even Pea Soup?
I would personally prefer chicken noodle soup over pea soup...wait what was that!?
Que the eerie Scooby Doo music...
"what was that?" Mina whispered.
Jenny shook her head, "Not sure...but I have a bad feeling about this.."
Deleted Scene:
"So why does Kelly hate you anyways?"
Jenny cringed reliving everything in her mind. "Lets just say once upon a time, Kelly, Logan, and I we're all best friends. One day Kelly magically got accepted by the popular kids, and became a big old slut bag." She growled.
"Long story short, she sent naked pictures of her self to my boyfriend drunk, knowing how I felt. But the thing is Logan didn't have his phone, his best friend, we'll call him Dick. had it. Can't you tell I don't like his best friend? Anyways, He saw the photos and sent them to everybody. Her reputation was ruined, I was pissed, Logan well she eventully ended up being a rebound...because he was hung up on me...Because I couldn't be with him because I'm a well-you know..."
"Your a succubus." Mina finished. Jenny nodded, that was like sophomore year. Their totally over. But I guess he realized that he couldn't do that to her, so he broke it off. Destroying the last bit of diginity she had left..."
Mina stared at her in shock. "Look I know. Logan was a jerk. And he was sorry, he learned his lesson. But Kelly's been angry and hurt, and thats what caused her to fall...We haven't spoken since then...
A sneak peak as what is to come in the story that follows...
Text conversation of Daniel and Jared.
Jared was completely bored out of his mind. As lied on his bed, his mind was searching for something anything he could do to relieve his boredom. His phone which was on his night stand began to vibrate on his nightstand, making a loud sound. He sat up quickly, reaching over to pick it up. He was surprised to see who it was, it was Daniel. He smiled as he read the text.
From Daniel to Jared, 11:58 EST
HEARD ABOUT YOUR LATEST ENCOUNTER WITH THE STORY. CORRECT ME IF IM WRONG BUT HAVE WE DONE ANYTHING THAT WAS WASNT WRITTEN BY THE GRIMM BROTHERS BEFORE?
Jared smiled, as he replied.
From Jared to Daniel, 11:59 EST
WHAT? YOU DONT REMEMBER ANY OF THE TIMES WE HAVE?
From Daniel to Jared, 12:03 EST
NO, NO I DO NOT. GOD WHERE HAVE I BEEN FOR THE PAST FEE MILLENNIUMS?
From Jared to Daniel, 12:04 EST
HIDING UNDERNEATH A ROCK?
From Daniel to Jared, 12:06 EST
THAT WOULD EXPLAIN THINGS, EVER SINCE YOU LEFT THINGS HAVE BEEN INCREDIBLY DULL AROUND HERE...
From Jared to Daniel, 12:07 EST
AWE DANIEL DO YOU MISS ME THAT MUCH?
He smirked as he typed the message.
From Daniel to Jared, 12:08 EST
IF ONLY I COULD REACH MY HAND THROUGH THIS PHONE...AND SMACK YOU... AND IN THE FACE YOU! I'D SMACK YOUR FACE AND JUST YOUR FACE YOU DISGUSTING PERVERT.
Jared was laughing hysterically.
From Daniel to Jared, 12:10 EST
BUT AT THIS RATE I THINK I'LL HAVE TO WAIT IN LINE TO GET MY HANDS ON YOU.
Jared frowned deeply.
From Jared to Daniel, 12:11 EST
AND WHYS THAT?
From Daniel to Jared, 12:15 EST
YOUR LITTLE DISPLAY OF TELLING MINA YOUR FEELINGS, IM ALMOST CERTAIN IT GAVE YOUR MOTHER A HEART ATTACK. IN FACT IM PRETTY SURE I SAW YOUR FATHER TALKING TO THE HORSES OF ALL THINGS ASKING THEM "HES NOT SERIOUS IS HE? HES NOT ACTUALLY DOING THIS! HES JOKING RIGHT!? IM SAD TO SAY THE HORSES WEREN'T REALLY COMFORTING YOUR FATHER THAT DAY...
Jared sighed.
From Jared to Daniel, 12:16 EST
SO IT WAS THAT BAD?
Jared swallowed hard, as he typed out the last part of that message.
From Jared to Daniel, 12:17 EST
AND TEAGUE?
Jared was panicking slightly, the last thing he wanted was his brother to pull him into the story. But if he was, well then there were worse ways he thought than going down as somebody's Prince Charming right? Daniels reply interrupted Jared's monologue.
From Daniel to Jared, 12:20 EST
HONESTLY? I DONT THINK HE CARES HE'S MORE PISSED OFF THAT HIS LITTLE PLAN OF PUTTING YOU TWO BACK TOGETHER AGAIN FAILED.
Jared relaxed a little at this.
From Jared to Daniel, 12:23 EST
WELL I GUESS THATS BETTER THAN JUMPING UP AND DOWN FOR JOY. IS THAT ALL?
From Daniel to Jared, 12:24 EST
WHAT? YOU MEAN BESIDES IT BECOMING BLATANTLY OBVIOUS THAT YOU SHOULD OF TAKEN ME INSTEAD OF THAT PIXIE?
Jared sighed.
From Jared to Daniel, 12:26 EST
DUDE SERIOUSLY? YOUR STILL HUNG UP ON THAT?
From Daniel to Jared , 12:27 EST
MY PRIDE WAS WOUNDED CENTURIES AGO...
Jared laughed.
From Jared to Daniel, 12:30 EST
DANIEL WE'VE BEEN THROUGH THIS BEFORE I DIDNT ASK YOU TO COME ALONG BECAUSE ALREADY EVER WAS HELL BENT ON COMING WITH ME AND I NEEDED SOMEONE THERE I COULD TRUST TO MAKE THIS CURSE FAIR AND TELL ME IF ANY FOUL PLAY WAS GOING ON, WHICH BTW WHERE WERE YOU WHEN THIS WHOLE LITTLE MERMAID ADVENTURE WAS GOING ON YOU COULD OF AT LEAST TOLD ME.
From Daniel to Jared, 12:33 EST
THATS THE THING JARED NO BODY KNEW THAT STORY WAS BEING PLAYED OUT.
From Jared to Daniel, 12:34 EST
SERIOUSLY? NO ONE KNEW? HIGHLY UNLIKELY. TEAGUE PROBABLY KNEW...
From Daniel to Jared, 12:39 EST
I SWEAR HE DIDNT, NO ONE KNEW, I MEAN HE WISHED HE HAD KNOWN, YOUR MOM WAS ALL OVER HIS ASS ABOUT IT. THAT IF HE WAS GOING TO CHOOSE A FAIRYTALE ABOUT A MURDEROUS PRINCESS AND TRY IT OUT FOR THE FIRST TIME, DONT YOU USE YOUR BROTHER AS THE MURDER VICTIM. JARED TEAGUE DIDNT KNOW THAT THE LITTLE MERMAID STORY EXISTED. HE LITERALLY THE NIGHT YOU DISAPPEARED, SCOURED BOOKS LOOKING FOR A FAIRYTALE LIKE THE ONE THAT WAS BEING RELIVED. THOUGH HE DID SAY HE WISHES HE HAD, HE COULD IF OFF'D A LOT OF GRIMM WOMEN THAT WAY INSTEAD OF HAVING TO RELIVE CINDERELLA EVERY OTHER GENERATION...BUT BECAUSE THE STORY WENT OFF SCRIPT. HES DECIDED TO BRUSH UP ON OTHER FAIRYTALES, HE REALLY LIKES THIS ONE VERSION I THINK ITS SOME ASIAN ADAPTION OF CINDERELLA, WHERE SHE BOILS AND EATS THE STEP SISTERS...MINA HASNT COMPLETED CINDERELLA HAS SHE? IF NOT I'D WATCH YOUR BACK, THEN AGAIN I HOPE YOU WOULDN'T BE THE IDIOT THAT ACTUALLY FELL FOR THE SISTER PLOY AND BELIEVE THE GIRL WHO WAS WILLING TO CUT PARTS OF THEIR FOOT OFF FOR IT TO BE IN THE SLIPPER.
Jared was slightly offended.
From Jared to Daniel, 12:42 EST
I WOULDN'T DO THAT! I KNOW WHAT MINA LOOKS LIKE! I WAS BEWITCHED NOT JUST BY HER LOOKS BUT BY HER PERSONALITY AS WELL.
he replied trying to sound poetic.
From Daniel to Jared , 12:43 EST
THATS ALL GOOD, BUT YOU KNOW I WOULDN'T WANT YOU TO BELIEVE THAT EVER WAS TRYING TO PASS OFF FOR MINA...
From Jared to Daniel, 12:45 EST
LOL! EVERS FEET ARE TO SMALL, SHE'D NEED TO HAVE HER FEET ENLARGED IN ORDER TO DO THAT,
From Jared to Daniel, 12:46 EST
SO IS THAT ALL?
From Daniel to Jared , 12:48 EST
WITH EACH PASSING DAY TEAGUE LOOKS MORE AND MORE LIKE A CRACK ADDICT, YOUR PARENTS ARE ASHAMED AND HEARTS ARE BROKEN, OH TEAGUE IS FASCINATED WITH BEAUTY AND THE BEAST.
Jared sighed.
From Jared to Daniel, 12:49 EST
GREAT...THATS JUST DAMN PERFECT -_-
From Daniel to Jared, 12:51 EST
HE SAID HE WONDERED IF YOU WOULD MIND BECOMING A OGRE PERMANENTLY TO TEST AND SEE IF MINA TRULY LOVES YOU FOR YOU ARE.
Jared scowled.
From Jared to Daniel, 12:52 EST
TELL HIM TO GO TO HELL -_-
From Daniel to Jared , 12:55 EST
LOL! I'LL TELL HIM THAT. BUT YOU WOULDN'T WANT TO BE A BIG FAT UGLY GREEN OGRE IN ORDER TO PROVE THAT SHES YOUR ONE TRUE LOVE?
From Jared to Daniel, 12:56 EST

Jared was peeved.
From Daniel to Jared, 1:00 EST
REALLY SOPHIE (REMEMBER HER YOUR FORMER MAID?) WOULD DISAGREE WITH YOU, LAST TIME YOU WERE HERE, TEAGUE'S CLOTHES DIDNT FIT, AND TEAGUE'S CLOTHES ARE YOUR OLD CLOTHES BEFORE YOU TWO SPLIT...
From Jared to Daniel, 1:01 EST
IM NOT FAT!
Jared was peeved.
From Daniel to Jared, 1:02 EST
ALRIGHT YOUR ROYAL HIGHNESS YOUR NOT FAT GEESH...SO WHATS UP?
Jared sighed...
And now...Stay tune for a sneak peak of my next story...
[picture this like a movie Trailer, and the narrators voice like the guy you always hear doing trailers for stuff like this]
Narrator: When Fable ended we were left with the image of Mina sitting on a bleachers watching Nix and Brody smiling but now...
"I know the difference between like and love! For example, I like my sketchers but I LOVE my new Prada bag." Nan gushed..
Nix stared at her blankly...
Mina stood there leaning against her locker, a smirk on her face. "Meet Nan, one of the most popular girls here at Kennedy High School!" Mina said stiffly.
*picture of a time clock winding down...*
Narrator: While Nan, and the rest of the world went on, unchanged. Mina is now something else...entirely...
Mina stormed across the breezeway she glared at the poster for the schools musical, Cinderella. Violently ripping it off the wall.
"Mina, were getting worried, you see some people are starting to find you..." Ms. Porter prattled nervously.
"I know, depressing.." Mina said monotone. The tiniest glimmer of attitude veiled her voice.
"Actually no," Mrs Colbert stated, looking at the mirror, playing the memory of Mina taking the car out of park, putting it in reverse, stomping on the gas, and rolling backwards on to Teague's car...
"I was actually going to say a bitch..."
Narrator: Her life has taken a turn, but some things haven't changed...
"Mina we need to get boyfriends." Nan sighed dejectedly.
"Why on gods earth would we do that?" Mina asked bewildered.
Why on earth would I want to date a boy. I had prince and I lost him. Which I still need to find a way to bring back...
Narrator: Jared maybe dead but that doesn't stop the story...
"Are you asking me out!?" Mina asked in surprise.
Mina: "What!? Jeremy's going to be there?
Narrator: There's a few new changes here at Kennedy high... There's Nick...
"So Mina I was thinking when we get home..."
Brody stopped mid way through the hall way. Mina and Nick turned around to stare at him. They looked at each other clearly confused.
"YOUR LIVING TOGETHER!?" Brody stuttered in disbelief. Bitter jealous rage filling him.
Narrator: Brody and Nan are over...
"So is your friend Nix..."
Mina gawked at her, "are you serious!?"
She stared at Mina uncomprehending. "What?"
"He's been here in this school for less than five minutes and you want to know his relationship status!?"
Narrator: And there's one other thing she didn't expect to happen...
"Hi I'm Daniel, and I'm Jared's best friend..."
Mina stared up at him in shock.
"Jared had a best friend?" Nick asked through a mouthful of food...
Narrator: And the last thing the whole world thought she would do?
"I'm going after Teague...I'm bringing back Jared."
Daniel and Nix looked at Mina like she suggested they all go and commit suicide.
Narrator: The tables are turned, and this time Mina's coming for Jared...at whatever it costs...
Daniel: "Aren't you a little young to be deciding whether or not you truly love Jared? Jared LOVED you. He died for you... Can you say the same thing?"
"Yes, yes I can." Mina said defiantly.
Narrator: But then again maybe new things aren't a bad thing? Maybe it's good for Mina...
"Just think about it Mina, you me...my arm around you..." Teague said in his most seductive voice.
"You covered in my vomit..." Mina said longly, slamming her locker shut.
Maeve: YOU TRAITOR! I WANT YOUR HEAD FOR MY NEWEST PAPER WEIGHT!
Daniel walked slowly backwards, noticing the knight standing by him, he quickly snatched the sword from him as fae knights descended upon him.
Narrator: For every guy whose ever tried... To win the heart of a girl...
*Cleo's 'I Want You To Want Me' playing in the back ground*
Jared's heart did flip flops, watching the story unfold from inside Teague's mind. Mina!
Narrator: For anyone whose ever had a true friend...who was a complete ass...
Daniel cursed Jared's name under his breath. "You know your the biggest jerk I've ever met-"he stopped as he came across Jared running across the castle floors sliding down them in his socks and boxers, as if he were surfing, he posed like Adonis as he slid past Daniel, who was staring at his best friend like he'd finally lost it.
Narrator: This is the Tale of how Mina brought back Jared... or the JCB
Mina : "JARED!" She fell over top of Jared's lifeless body, sobbing.
King Lucian: "SON!
Narrator: For any girl whose ever hoped...
"I've always been attracted to Jared.. It's just he was always such a fucking jerk!" She threw the bowl into the sink. "Like I would've given him a chance Daniel. I just never thought he would take an actual interest in me. Like I get why he was uncomfortable when I asked him what side was he on, because on the other side is his family. But it's when he's like, just forget your brother."
Nick looked uncomfortable and tried to focus on the soup he was eating...
"You know, I'm sorry your relationship with your brother is fucking messed up. But mine isn't! I'm sorry! That your brother doesn't give a damn about you. But I give a damn about mine!" Mina laughed. Nick laughed, soup squirting from his mouth on to the table.
"But he did all of that!" He gestured to the grimoire "for you!" Daniel yelled back flabbergasted. He wasn't really angry, more amused.
"HE WAS MY PROTECTOR! She paused the hand towel she had in her hands slapped her legs as she threw her hands down in frustration, the silence made it more dramatic. "I thought he was suppose to do that!" Mina yelled back smiling.
Mina held on to the human heart chanting slowly... As Teague lied unconscious on the floor.
Nan: "Mina pay attention up there!" She screamed.
Sara: "Baldander the Dragon!?"
Narrator: It's Mina and Teague like you've never seen them before!
Teague walked away from the burning castle. The ashes falling around him created a soft halo, his hair blowing in the wind.
Teague: He opened the doors, "As a matter of fact," he stormed in his tux looking pristine despite the chaos that ensued. "I object to this union."
Nick was bouncing up and down in the bus seat next to Mina. "Yes, I'm jus a sucker for the sounds of west Kansas!" He sung happily, clapping his hands.
Teague saw her running towards the heart, he lifted his hand in Mina's direction and flicked it away from the heart. Sending her back towards the wall, she landed with a loud thud, causing the what was left of that one wall to fall to the ground, the ceiling started to shake violently, long spider web like cracks started to form along the castles ceiling. Mina gasped bracing herself for the impact of the ceiling caving in. She gasped for air, Teague was walking towards her his hand, looked like he was cupping something or trying to signal to someone to make it smaller, he closed his hand even more tightening the invisible grip he had around Mina's neck. She couldn't breathe her lungs gasped for air. The small cracks in the veiling were starting to connect to together causing bigger cracks in the ceiling. Mina felt faint she was starting to pass out from lack of oxygen, she began to close her eyes her lungs practically ready to explode. At that precise moment, the cracks in the ceiling formed at just the right points to cause the ceiling over Teague to fall on top of him. The sound of the ceiling caving in surprised both of them, he looks up and in horror saw it fall on top of him. He screamed, as the stone ceiling fell on him.
Narrator: From the creators of Where To? And The Little Mermaid, comes the story of how Mina Brought Back Jared, and proving that true love conquers over all...at least in one Fairytale...
