Beauty Sleep
Disclaimer: I don't own Snow White characters (I don't know who does, but whatever… Just don't sue me.)
When out of the blue, seven little midgets, led by a herd of forest animals, charged at her down the hill! The Queen attempted to run, but with Snow White's weight, the dwarves had an easy time catching up. Doc and Grumpy came out from behind and pulled Snow White out of Eliza's arms, and Sleepy tripped the horrified Queen.
"GET HER!" Happy yelled through his beard, and the rest of the men lunged at the haggard old lady, piling top of her. Eliza groaned as Happy began to tie her wrists and ankles tightly with rope. "Now, OFF TO THE RIVER!" Happy patted his belly, proud of getting to yell out commands as the other dwarves did the work.
The dwarves did their little march towards the edge of the ravine. Their feet crushed the crisp grass underfoot, then Happy exclaimed again, "NOW, ONE… TWO… THREE!"
"WEEEEEE!" They launched the enraged Queen off the ravine, into the river below.
It is common knowledge that dwarves are not smart. After all, with their tiny bodies, including a tiny head, they have an extremely tiny brain. They launched the Queen into the river, thinking she would most certainly drown, but as seen during the Salem witch trials, witches can swim!
The Queen immediately sunk under the murky water, and she turned her body and used her feet to do the dolphin kick. Managing to get a decent distance away before coming up for air, she turned her body and swam to the edge of the river. She awkwardly pulled herself onto the shore and began to search for a sharp rock. She hopped around on her tightly bound legs for nearly an hour, until she finally found a large enough rock to use to cut her ropes. Eliza used it as a saw, and only a few minutes later, she had all of her limbs free.
She used a counter spell, and her haggard body was turned back into its youthful state, making her feel much more comfortable. She sat down on the soft green grass, And I was SO close! ARGH! Well, the least I can do is go back to the castle and get Edmond... Then I can escape before those retched Communist take care of their blasted revolution… She mentally cursed. She rested her body on the ground and fell quickly in a deep slumber, but her mind still wandered, thinking about Snow white.
"Oh would you stop getting your beauty sleep at a time like this!" A familiar voice popped up. Elizabeth immediately jolted up and reached for her dagger. She looked around hastily, and then noticed a distinct frog sitting on the floor, staring at her.
Prince Phillip glowered, "You've been knocked out for several days now, did you know?" At seeing the expression on her face, he continued, "I thought not. Well, lucky for you, I've been awake, getting information about Snow White and the revolution. Apparently, you overdosed her apple, giving her an eternal slumber, and the revolution failed. Good job!" The Queen blinked several times, not comprehending any of the information. It's too early to be talking about eternal sleep and revolutions—Wait!
"What do you mean Snow White's in an eternal sleep!" The Queen spattered.
"Just what I said, she's going to be asleep until she finds her true love or until you give her the antidote. You should know this best: you're a witch for goodness sake! Oh, and by the way, the dwarves wanted to make a good impression with the forest animals, so they put her in a fancy, glass coffin. How nice of them…" He added sarcastically.
"Oh," The Queen frowned, "Then what did you mean about the revolution failing?"
"My goodness! I mean what I say, and I said the Communist Revolution failed! The leader, Villefort or Prince what's-his-name – Arthur, that's it— was found out to be a fraud. The real Prince Arthur came a couple of days ago and challenged the fake Prince Arthur to a duel. The fake Prince Arthur lost horribly to the real Prince Arthur because the fake Prince Arthur was out of practice from being a frog for so long."
The Queen looked confused and asked, "So, basically Villefort is dead?"
"If you must be a simpleton, YES, he lost." Prince Philip looked exasperated.
The Queen smiled slightly, "Then, all we have to worry about is Snow White?"
"I can take care of her," The frog smiled, "She needs to wake up; I need to be a Prince. Bada-bing-bada-boom!" He snapped his fingers suggestively and puckered his lips.
The Queen winced. Great. My daughter, who happens to be in an eternal sleep, is going to be awoken by a nice, helpful, but still disgusting frog…
The pushed herself off the ground using her palms, "Well," she brushed the dirt off her black robes, "I guess we should go find her."
"I guess we should."
