Ladies and gentlemen, you are all welcome to a new story you'll gonna love.

WARNING: I DO NOT OWN SWAN PRINCESS OR ANY OF THE CHARACTERS.

It was a dark and stormy night at a dark forest, where the winds made a strange howling sound as it blew slightly against the branches of menacing-looking trees. There are mist everywhere, along with scary sounds like wolves howling, owls hooting, crows cawing, and crickets chirping.

One mile from the forest, there was an old dark castle on a hill. Lightning flashed in the castle, and thunder crackled as deep beneath them.

Inside the castle, a young woman was raising her hands over a glass orb. She was perfuming a ritual as she begins to chant.

"Formula non grata kayatus melvarta. Formula non grata kayatus semper. Vola bid tu ana binaye contora innextre koxus.

Bring the force of Pure Evil back to Earth. Let the powers of the Forbidden Arts flow into me."

She then took her hand away from the Orb, and a swirling red vortex emerged from the Orb. As it grew upward, it also grew in size until it began to shrink and become narrower. It became smaller and smaller until it shrank back into the Orb, and once it did, jolts of red electricity began to spark within the Orb.

The sorceress placed her hand on the Orb and felt the energy surge through her. She laughed darkly.

"At last. The Forbidden Arts returns to the world among mortals." she said.

"I know who you are, child." The voice came from the Orb.

The sorceress was Odile, daughter of Rothbart the Spell-Weaver. Years ago, her father was killed by Prince Darek, which drove Odile to madness of revenge. When Derek and Odette banished the Forbidden Arts to the Underworld, Odile spent six months finding a way to bring the Forbidden Arts back, and so she did.

"I bet you remember my father." Odile said with a smile.

"Ah, yes, Rothbart the Spell-Weaver. I do remember him. I am truly sorry for your loss, young Odile." the Forbidden Arts said.

"It's not your fault, my friend. It's those lovey-doves Odette and Derek. Pop should have killed them when he had the chance. They were the ones who killed him. Twice. Two times, two times! It-it's just so savage of them."

"I know. And I happen to figure why you brought me back." said the Forbidden Arts.

"I bet you do, Forby. Can I call you Forby? We have the same desire for revenge against the Swan Princess, and we can work together to destroy her, and those she ever loved." Odile said.

"Yes, daughter of Rothbart. Together, we can destroy all good, and vows of everlasting love. And we may need a strategy." the Forbidden Arts said.

"That's right, Forby. We need a plan to take Derek, Odette, and their daughter out of the picture." Odile said. "And I have one."

"Oh? Which is?" the Forbidden Arts asked.

"Here's the first step: We can be one. Truly one." Odile said.

"Aahh, both of us merge together. If we do so, we are one powerful god. But we need the blood of the Swan Princess." the Forbidden Arts said.

"Leave that to me. But I'll have to be careful not to be seen. She remembers me when Dad turned her into a swan." Odile said.

"Yes, but with my Power to Change, no one can know who you are." the Forbidden Arts said.

"And once I get enough blood from Odette, we will be one. And we destroy her, and her family. Then, the kingdom and Earth will be ours."

Odile laughed loudly in the chamber, and the Forbidden Arts joined her laughter.

Chapter two will be coming soon.
