A/N: Flame if you must... but, reviews are better (and nicer) have fun, hope you enjoy.

Chapter One: Hey There Li'l Red...

Prince Charming was wandering around Far, Far Away, window shopping for all of the latest fashions out of Farsi, or Paris, or Geneva, or whatever. He had wanted to get out of the house and away from his lunatic mother, who could only speak of marriage and ogres, and how Walter was an idiot... well, the latter fact Charming didn't disagree with, but that was beside the point. As he was window shopping, Charming notice the most beautiful crimson red hooded cape (the latest fashion, so it seemed-even Cinderella was sporting one), being worn by the rather gothic looking Li'l Red Ridding Hood... she made the outfit work. With her school-girl charm, and dainty picnic basket, as well as the ability to throw rotten apples at evil-doers in the Shrek 2 video game... well, Ms. Hood was perhaps the most beautiful, delicate person in all of Far, Far Away. Well, besides Prince Charming himself, of course.

As Li'l Red skipped along the sidewalk, oblivious to the wanting stare Prince Charming was giving her, and the disapproving glances of passer-bys, presumptuously for her dark, brooding look, Charming was overcome with the desire to talk to her, if only for a brief second. He wouldn't get the chance that day, though, because a Zorro-esq cat suddenly jumped into her unsuspecting arms.

"One cannot live la Vida loca forever!" The feline exclaimed.

"Oh, Puss, you silly cat..." Red laughingly chided.

Charming umpped and stormed away.

"Will Prince Charming EVER get the chance to talk to Li'l Red? Will Puss- in-Boots ever speak a sentence without some Spanish word? What will Fairy Godmother say about her son's choice of female? All that and more, but, for now, Mirror Out!"
