Helo everyone and Welcome to chapter eight of Mary Tudor and The Seven Dwarfs. I would like to thank everyone who left reviews for the last chapter I posted. I had a review asking if Philip of Bavaria is going to have a backround story or is he just going to pop in and kiss Mary. Philip of Bavaria is going to have a backround story and he is going to be introduced into the story in chapter nine. I think I might either have chapter nine ready and posted either this afternoon or Tommorow morning. So anyways in this chapter Queen Anne is going to poison Princess Mary with the poison apple and this time the dwarfs are too late to save her.
Disclaimer: Nothing belongs to me.

Chapter 8
Queen Anne made her way through the forest on the same path she took yesterday to kill Mary with the enchanted corset except this time she had a more powerful way to kill Mary a poison apple. This time Anne would succeed and be the fairest in the land again and she would have no compettion stopping her.
"Why do the dwarfs have to live so far in the forest" Anne muttered.
She remembered how after Henry died and she became the offical ruler of England there had been some rumors of a small rebellion going to appear against her called The Seven Dwarfs that was rumored to take place in order to kill her and put either Mary or Elizabeth on the throne is her place. Of course the rebellion never took place and the rumors of rebellion soon died down and Anne was safe as the Queen of England until the day she was told that Mary was the fairest in the land.
"Maybe this is why the dwarfs stay away from London" Anne said to herself.
After a few more miles walking in the woods Anne soon noticed the cottage where the seven dwarfs were living in the distance. Another perfect plan was about to take place without Mary knowing.
"Perfect soon I will be the fairest in the land again without anyone standing in my way with their beauty" Anne said with a evil smile as she walked further up in the path.
*********************************
Meanwhile back at the Palace Princess Elizabeth and her two sidekicks Robert Dudley and Mistress Kat were searching for more clues in Queen Anne's bedroom.
"I don't think we should be here" Kat told them
"Why" Robert asked?
"Because what if Queen Anne comes back and see us in here" Kat replied to them.
"Don't worry she won't Kat and come on we need to find more clues" Elizabeth told them.
They searched the bedroom some more before they noticed a door which led to Queen Anne's secret potion room that no one knew about until now.
"I wonder where this door leads to" Robert asked them
All three of them then opened the door which had a a staircase going down to some room. All three of them walked down the stairs into the room which lead to Queen Anne's so called Secret Potion room.
"Let's take a look in here" Elizabeth told them
**********************************************
Back at the cottage were the seven dwarfs along with Princess Mary, Mary was beating the dust out of a rug when she noticed a woman walking up the path to the cottage.
"Not another one" she said to herself
She remembered how both Thomas More and Thomas Crammer warned her not to talk any strangers while they were away. So she decided when the woman came by she would give her the silent treatment. So she went on beating the dust out of the rug.
"Hello young lady" Anne told
Mary said nothing to her.
"Would you like a apple" Anne asked?
Still Mary said nothing to her.
"Cat got your tongue" asked Anne again?
"No" Mary told her finally breaking the silence.
"But would you like a apple" Anne asked again?
"I shouldn't take fruit from strangers" Mary told her.
"Are worried you that it might be poisoned" Anne asked her?
"Yes" Mary told her.
"I'll take the first bite and you can have the second bite" Anne told her.
Anne then took a bit of the apple. Of course the poison had no effect on her since it was her own poison she put into the apple.
"See it's not poisoned" Anne said to her.
"I see that too" she said as Anne passed the apple to her.
"So take a bite" Anne urgered her.
Mary did take a bite of the apple and this time the apple had it's poison effect her. After she took the bite she dropped dead to the ground. Queen Anne rejoiced in this. Anne then kneeled down to the lifeless body.
"Now there is only one fairest in the land" Anne whispered to the lifeless body.
Anne then grabbed her things and made her way back to the palace.
****************************
Back at the palace Elizabeth, Robert, and Kat fiinshed their search in Anne's potion room and went back up the stairs back to Queen Anne's room.
"So The Queen poisoned her with the apple" Kat said
"Yep so now she is dead" Robert said mournfully.
"Not exactly" Elizabeth said.
"What do you mean" they both asked
"I read in her spell book that a way to break the curse is a kiss from her true love" Elizabeth told them
"But who is her true love" asked Kat?
"Is it her cousin Charles V" asked Robert?
"No he's too old and is the mourning the death of his wife" Elizabeth told them.
"How come there is always a piece of fabric covering that mirror" Kat asked?
"I don't know but let's take a look" Elizabeth said.
Elizabeth slowly took off the piece of fabric that was on the mirror.
"It looks like a magic mirror" Kat told them.
"Mirror Mirror appear" Elizabeth told the mirror.
The mirrors face then appeared.
"Oh dear strangers" said the mirror
"What do you know about my mother" Elizabeth
"That she wants to be the fairest in the land" the mirror told her.
"Oh then I have the perfecr punishment for her" Elizabeth said.
**********************************
A while later Queen Anne came back to the palace and everyone was out of her room so she was alone.
"Mirror on the wall" she called the mirror.
"Yes My Queen" the mirror replied.
"Who is the fairest in the land" Anne asked?
It is you my queen" the mirror told her.
"Perfect" she replied.
************************
Later that night the dwarves came home from another day at the mines to find Princess Mary on the ground again.
"What happened to her" Thomas Crammer asked?
"She's dead" Francis Bryan said on the verge of tears.
"How did it happen" Reginald Pole asked?
"It must have been this poisoned apple" Thomas said pointing to a apple on the ground.
"This time we can't save her" cried Charles Brandon
Along with Thomas Wosley and John Fisher they were also crying that their beloved princess was now dead.
