Chapter 5: Interruption
Apple and Raven give Frankie, Clawdeen, & Draculaura, their grand tour of Ever After. They first begin with the Glass Slipper, which Ashlynn Ella spends most of the week at.
Apple: Hey, Ashlynn.
Ashlynn: Apple!
The two share a friendly hug. Ashlynn quickly notices Frankie and Draculaura outside, patiently waiting.
Ashlynn: Um, Apple?
Apple: Yes?
Ashlynn: Are those the new students joining us?
Apple: They sure are! Do you wanna meet them?
Ashlynn: Well, I suppose I can take a little break.
Apple: Perfect! I-I mean *coughs* very well. As you wish.
Apple and Ashlynn head outside the shop, and the monsters; minus one, greet Apple.
Draculaura: Apple, I must say. This place is to DIE for!
Frankie: It sure is! Just looking at everyone here makes my jolts spark!
Apple: Your not serious, are you?
Frankie: Depends.
Ashlynn leans in to whisper to Apple.
Ashlynn: They don't look like they're from here Apple.
Apple: You don't know that Ashlynn. Besides, you might like them.
Ashlynn: Well, okay. I'll give it a try.
Ashlynn takes a deep breath and calmly walks over to introduce herself.
Ashlynn: Good afternoon. My name is Ashlynn Ella. And may I ask what is your name?
Frankie Stein: Frankie Stein. And this is my friend Draculaura.
Ashlynn: Interesting names. *giggles* Your names almost sound Frankenstein and Dracula.
Frankie and Draculaura glance at each other for a second.
Draculaura: Actually, Ashlynn, right? We ARE their daughters. Well, at least, Dracula is my father.
Frankie Stein: And my grandfather is Victor Frankenstein. Technically, I still don't know the full story, considering dad says everytime. Bleh! Grandfather bad! Bleh! *giggles*
Ashlynn and Apple gasp, leaving their mouths wide open.
Apple: Hmm. Well, that's a coincidence. Because our parents are idols too! *although I wouldn't consider Frankenstein and Dracula idols*
Frankie: Really?!
Apple: Yep! In fact-
Suddenly, Apple's mirror phone rings, and she answers it.
Apple: Yes. I'm with the new students. But, I can't just leave them alone. Raven already went with the other one to get beverages. Yes, I understand. Ok, I'll be there in a spell. *hangs up*
Ashlynn: Who was that Apple?
Apple: Apparently, Headmaster Grimm wants me and Raven to meet him in his office.
Frankie: *Headmaster Grimm, isn't that the guy who was with Headmistress Bloodgood?*
Draculaura: Does that mean the tour's over?
Apple: No, we've only just begun. Once this is over, I'll show you all three around the Village of Book End!
Ashlynn: *There's another one!*
Apple: But I have to grab Raven and go! I'll see you in a spell!
Apple runs off, realizing she doesn't even know where Raven is. She quickly returns.
Apple: Just out of curiosity, do you happen to know where…
Frankie and Draculaura both point left and Apple gives a large grin and runs left. Frankie, Ashlynn, and Draculaura laugh with each other.
