Chap 6; But no one noticed.
Sabrina Grimm, at age 21, was strolling the length of the camp. Doing nothing in particular just simply filling the time.
The sword that was usually by her side at all times was, for once, resting in her cabin. Sabrina smiled wistfully, knowing the reason behind it.
The war was done, over, finished, but never will it be forgotten.
No, it'll never be forgotten.
Sabrina looked around the camp, making sure to memorize it. This is the last time she'll be here and still be able to walk around it freely. It was agreed that they would convert it into a memorial for the people who were lost in the fights.
The young woman laid down on the plush grass and thought about the past…
Of how the strange pain she got after first waking up from her coma happened again when she turned 18, of how her whole family had had that pain at some time in the last 7 years.
It just didn't add up.
Sabrina drifted to sleep, feeling the warmth of the sun on her face, and for the first time in a long time, she was able to sleep without fear of anyone getting hurt… and that made her day.
But as she fell asleep, no one noticed the strange glow around her; no one noticed that when she was around things magical she didn't feel a pull whatsoever, no one noticed that late one June night the barrier flashed dimly changing from a bright red to a dull yellow and for the first time letting out a unsuspecting Everafter that was pure of heart. No one noticed.
No one noticed that she and her family had become Everafters.
No one noticed, that is, until later that very same day…
Everyone was gathered around tables, laughing, eating, small talking, some even got up to dance to the quiet background music.
Sabrina was sitting next to Puck, her boyfriend of seven years now, and Daphne.
Daphne was now 17, and growing up quite nicely. She was talking to Red who had decided to grow till she turned 22. They both giggled about something but their conversation was lost to the noise around them.
Then it happened. A firework that a worker was setting up fell over and shot towards the sisters. It showered them in sparks and burned their skin. When it was over the sisters were on their backs in too much pain to move, but, everyone else just stared at them, watching as the 3rd degree burns slowly faded away leaving unmarked skin in their place.
Both girls opened their eyes and stared at themselves, as confused as ever. As Puck and Red helped Sabrina and Daphne up a bright light erupted over the camp. An object slowly floated down and hovered in front of Sabrina and Daphne. A book to be more exact.
The book's cover depicted two girls running in the woods away from a ignoramus foot.
Its name? None other than The Sisters Grimm, Fairy Tale Detectives.
Daphne reached out and took the book out of the air; she read the back cover,
Her eyes widened as she said out loud
" It's a book about… Us."
Charming took the book from the 17 year-old, skimmed it over and said
" Good God, the Grimms' have become Everafters."
If it was possible for over 400 eyes to fall out of their sockets all at once then trust me, they would've.
It wasn't like anyone was angry it was just something no one saw coming. Someone coughed and said
"Well, I guess congratulations are in order…"
And just like that the celebrating continued. Sabrina just shrugged it off and helped lift the table back over, but, she heard Daphne trying to cast a spell without a wand and she also heard her complain that when you become a Everafter that you were supposed to get a cool power.
Oh Daphne you still have so much to learn.
As a slow song came on people relaxed and started to dance in slow movements. The beat of the song allowed experienced and inexperienced dancers to move comfortably.
Puck who had been nervous all day because of something he was planning on doing tonight wasted no time asking Sabrina to dance, she took his offered hand, and together they danced.
When the song came to a close Puck led Sabrina to the river, neither of them noticing that Red and Daphne had rounded up everyone and had put a invisibility shield around them saying that something unbelievable and gushy was about to happen.
She was right.
Many mouths dropped when they saw Puck lower to one knee, and appear to ask Sabrina something.
Sabrina had put her hands over her mouth but everyone saw her nod.
You didn't have to be a genius to know what she just agreed to.
Puck stood up and gave Sabrina such a sweet kiss that even the Prince charming felt the need to look away.
Then everyone heard it, as the spell around them fizzled out, Daphne letting out a rather loud
"Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! That's so fruity licous!" Despite her age Daphne still slipped up sometimes and made up words.
The happy couple turned to see the whole camp starring at them. They looked at each other one more time before bursting out laughing.
'This is it,'
'The end and beginning of something that will last forever.'
'But of course, no one noticed…'
