Friends Make You Stronger
A/N Thanks for the reviews.
This will possibly be the last chapter but I have another one planned.
I hope you like this chapter.
It was early morning in Far, Far Away but most of the girls in the castle were asleep apart from Snow and Leah.
Fiona was asleep in a sleeping bag lost in sweet dreaming.
"Aww she looks so cute sleeping!
She looks so peaceful but I wonder if she's dreaming about us and the good things in her life." Snow whispered as she and Leah went outside into the gardens where they could talk.
Leah noticed Snow was quiet for a while.
"You're afraid about losing Fiona, aren't you?
Maybe her parents went to get the Fairy Godmother to help break the curse." Leah told her but Snow looked pretty doubtful.
"Her Mom would but her Dad wouldn't." she said but Leah was confused.
"He only cares about himself and what the kingdom thinks of him, not what makes Fiona happy." Snow told her.
Leah was stunned as a carriage arrived but they saw Harold and Lillian in it looking very sad.
"What's wrong?" Snow asked them.
"We went last night to the Fairy Godmother to make her lift the curse but she wouldn't." Lillian answered.
"Let me guess it was because of Harold?" Leah asked.
"Not this time.
He fought with the love of a father to make her lift the curse but she wouldn't see sense.
I'm afraid Fiona is going to the tower after all.
Is she awake?" Lillian answered.
"No.
She's asleep because our other friends showed up and we had a slumber party because it was Fiona's last night here." Snow answered.
Lillian understood as she and Harold went to the dining room.........
Later that morning Fiona awoke with a bad feeling but she noticed her other friends weren't there.
"They must've woken up and went home.
I hope they're okay." she thought getting dressed and heading downstairs.
When she entered the dining room, she noticed Snow along with her parents sitting there drinking tea and had been talking but saw serious looks on their faces.
"You're awake!
Did you sleep well?" Lillian asked her.
Fiona nodded.
"Hmm-mmm
But why do you look like you're about to cry?
Did something happen?" she replied as Harold sighed.
"I guess we have to tell her." he thought.
"Last night your father and I went to the Fairy Godmother hoping we could convince her to lift that dreadful curse but she wouldn't listen and refused to do it.
Even your father tried his hardest to make her understand.
I'm sorry honey but we can't do anything but send you away to the tower.
We're leaving in a few hours." Lillian explained as Fiona felt tears well up inside her as she left the room.
Snow then went after her to try and calm her down.
Snow found Fiona in her room curled up in a ball on her bed softly sobbing.
She felt sorry for her and wished there was some other way but there wasn't.
"Fiona?
It'll be okay, you'll see." the ebony haired princess said soothingly.
"N-No it won't!
I don't want to leave my friends.
My home is here." she replied as Snow understood.
She then sat beside her on the bed.
"Fiona I know it seems daunting and you're scared but your parents are doing this because they love you and want you to be happy.
For years they know the curse has made your life miserable and lonely but they want you to be happy and any chance like the prince coming is worth it so you can have the life you've always wanted and dreamt of.
I know that you can do this because if you can make friends, then you can do anything even living in a dragon guarded tower." Snow reassured her.
"I-I know but what about you and the others?" Fiona said.
"We can manage without you for a while but we'll never forget you.
You'll always be a part of us." she answered.
Fiona smiled wiping away her tears as she'd finished packing.
"You're right Snow.
Let's go." she said lifting the suitcase.
It was sunset as the carriage arrived at the dragon guarded tower.
"I guess this is it." Fiona murmured as Lillian and Harold got out of the carriage.
Right now they weren't feeling too good because their daughter was being locked up in a tower for the rest of her life and they didn't know when she would be returning to them but had hope that the curse would be broken but Harold was nearly about to break down.
"I-I'm so sorry honey.
I know this is bad but I never meant it on purpose.
Someday you'll return to us with a wonderful husband and start the life you've always wanted.
I love you Fiona." he told her hugging her.
She was surprised by that but smiled.
Maybe her father did care about her after all.
She watched from the window of her room in the highest room in the tallest tower as her parents left in the carriage.
Right now she was feeling scared but remembered what Snow had told her.
"I can do this.
One day I'll return to you and my parents someday." she thought as she sighed.
This would be her life now.........
She hoped that the one to break her curse would come and save her.......
