Promise
A/N Here's more. This might be the last chapter for this fic but I might be writing another one based on the musical. Just be patient, okay?
It was a few days after Fiona had left and Shrek was feeling very sad. He had hidden in the forest as he planned to leave Far, Far Away. He cast one look at the castle as he left the kingdom. He then roamed until he came to an odd kingdom which was oddly clean and the villagers acted odd. It was the kingdom of Duloc.
He then wandered through the forest and found something.
It was a swamp. He smiled broadly at this.
"Could it be?
This place is perfect for me!" he thought as he saw an old oak tree but it was still strong and sturdy.
It would make the perfect house for somebody like him.
He then got to work....
Lillian sighed.
She missed Fiona deeply as she read a letter from a far off kingdom saying that their champion hadn't returned from trying to rescue her daughter.
"So it's not today.
Oh well....." she thought as she went into the castle and into the dining room.
Harold saw the sadness in her eyes and wondered what was wrong.
"It's nothing, okay?" Lillian answered.
Right now her husband had became more nervous and quieter since Fiona's departure.
But the Fairy Godmother cackled seeing that nobody could rescue Fiona from the tower. She then saw a blonde haired twelve year old join her. It was her son Prince Charming. He wondered what was wrong with his mother as she smiled evilly.
"What's going on?" he asked her curious.
"Those foolish knights or princes think they can rescue Fiona but they're wrong! Now it'll be your turn and you'll be the one to rescue her. Then everything we've dreamed of will be ours.
Don't worry about the dragon.
I've a feeling it won't be a problem." she replied laughing. He had a feeling she was up to something but wasn't sure. He hated it when she did this.
He nodded as he left the room......
Fiona sighed as she was in her room reading but practising karate moves she'd learnt from a book. She was now thirteen but still felt lonely as she practised but heard knights scream as the dragon prevented them from reaching her.
"Idiots!
They'll never get past the dragon so they're foolish, risking themselves when they know they have no chance.
But maybe someday a knight will come who can get past the dragon and get me out of here but it'll never happen.
I wonder how my parents are doing..... without me." she thought sadly but shook those thoughts away before those bad feelings took control of her once again.
She sighed.....
Meanwhile it was night fall and Shrek had finished building and decorating the house and it's interior but he was sad.
He still remembered Fiona. He wished they could see each other again but knew it would never happen.
He sighed as he lay by a fire outside that he'd made as he looked at the stars in the night sky. He felt really down.
He then saw the wishing star in the night sky. Once his mother had told him that others who made wishes on it had them granted and had their heart's desire. He sighed.
Right now he could use some help.....
"I wis, I wish...." he began but then he saw Fiona in his mind.
"Go on Shrek.
Do it!
Don't you want to be with Fiona again? She was the only one who understood you." his heart told him.
He agreed with it.
"I wish...... that one day, someday Fiona and I will be together." he whispered softly.
He then fell asleep as he thought about it. He knew that somebody like him wouldn't have a chance with her but he had a feeling his thought was wrong.....
But somebody would set the wheels in motion making his wish come true.
A few years had passed and Far, Far Away acted like nothing had happened but sometimes Harold and Lillian were sad, depressed but they knew that one day their daughter would be back someday.
They just had to hope......
