The Anti-Fairy Tales Cinder Umbrella Arc Part Three

The Demon God Mother

Cinder and Durn were both dressed well, but Cinder was more on the plain side, she had a plain white silk dress with a plain back cape. She had old copper roses that had been worn far too much with several dents in. She had black silk shoes with several holes in.
Durn was dressed in a blue dress with blue roses covering the top half and the bottom half was a long silk dress. She had blue silk shoes and a long laced cape held by silver lilly. Lieara wore the same but in pink but it looked new and better and her sister was in purple.
Then came their mother. She was dressed in a silk green dress and a long black cape with a crimson spider lilly broach. She wore slippers that were crimson with scarlet jewels.
She looked at Cinder and her lip curled but she soon forced a smile on her face.
“Girls an Durn, you three go on ahead. Cinder will you come with me.”
“W-”
Not good to ask questions.
Never mind.”
“It's perfectly fine honey, that question isn't a dangerous. It is to see an old friend of mine. It's to see an old friend of mine, it's about time you met her.” she said.
She smiled and nodded. The rest walked to the carriage and then, they waved the three goodbye. Then, when they were out of sight, she then looped her arm in hers.
“Come along sweetie!” she said as they started walking. “ I'm sorry about those two, they never learnt when to put away their rebellious nature.”
“It's alright. I don't blame them.”
“Well I do, I mean when the Demon King gave you to me, after all these years, if I didn't know any better I would have mistook him as an angel! And, honestly I am glad to have you back now, even-though your memories are a bit sketchy. Sometimes, I do wish that I could have known what happened to you all those years.”
“I do too... It's just even-though I am trying but every time I do my head pounds and I see his face. Even in my dreams.”
“Whose?”
“The Demon King's and that boys. Then in my dreams...I see myself in a mirror.” she then looked at her hand almost as it she was holding a weapon of sorts. “My eyes, they're like his and I'm even holding a smaller version of his weapon...”
Her mother's eyes narrowed at her words.
“My, that is strange.”
“What about you? Tell me, what was father like?” she asked. Her look in her vulnerable eyes looked as if she was about to cry. Smiling she pulled her in and wrapped an arm around her and kissed her forehead.
“Well, he was like you, and believe me, if he saw you right here and now, he would be proud of you and he would be smiling if he saw us here, and now. Just as I am.” she said as she turned a corner.
“I love you mother.”
“I love you too.”
They giggled with each-other they soon a house at the end.
“Well, we are here!” she sang as they walked to and knocked on the door.
The door opened. Revealing an old lady with bat like wings and deep crimson eyes.
“Degon I thought that it was about time you two met.” she said gesturing at Cinder. Her eyes sparkled like they were glowing. “You remember her don't you?”
“How could I forget! I am not sure that you remember me but I am you godmother Degon Cinder. And yes, your first name did come from my last name.” she said.
“I wish that I could but, I will do well to in the future.” she said with a curtsy.
Degon burst out in tears and pulled her in for a tight embrace and kissed her.
“Oh, it's good to have you back deer! It's good to have you back deer!” she repeated in her ear.
Degon pushed her away and looked at her up and down.
“Oh, I can't believe that you're alive and you're home!”
Her mother placed a hand on her shoulder.
“Anyway, I brought you here because, those sisters of hers gave her this dress and I know that you can do better.” she said as she winked.
“Then I'm sure that you came to the right place!” she said.
Cinder looked slightly confused but said nothing and smiled. She looked at her up and down.
“On it.” was all she said as she pulled out a long black polished stick that had a scarlet jewel at the end.
She tapped her cape and then part of it melted away leaving a rose pattern. She then stroked it and the roses became silver. Cinder's eyes widened as she could not believe what had just happened. She had to stroke the pattern to make sure that she was not seeing things.
“Now for the dress.”
She then her current dress and then tapped the skirt of the dress making it longer and then stroked the waist and then flicked it down and white roses followed into an triangle made of roses. She then stroked the sleeves and they became long with a large cuff with a point. She then circled her waist creating a silver rope-like belt ending in a not.
She then tapped both broaches and they became black glass with a purple gemstone in the centre that was the same colour of her eyes.
“Now your feet.” she said as she tapped her silk shoes. And suddenly a dark cloud eclipsed her feet and her heel rose and she was soon looking at a pair of black glass slippers.
She looked down at what she was wearing and could not believe just how beautiful she looked.
“Thank you!” she gasped.
“You are very welcome! Now there's just one thing that you need to keep in mind, my spell will only last until midnight, and when it does, those clothes will start to disappear, leaving you naked and you would not want that now would you?”
She smiled out of dread.
“And I wouldn't want to do that!” she giggled nervously.
“No deer, you wouldn't.”
Her mother placed a hand on her shoulder and smiled widely. She then extended her hand to a pumpkin shaped glass carriage with lilac rims, and pulled by black unicorns.
“For me?” Cinder exclaimed.
“Yes, compliments of the Demon King.” her mother said.
Cinder kissed her mother and godmother.
“Aren't you forgetting something?” she asked as she started dancing.
“What?” she asked.
“The ball!” she exclaimed.
“Oh!”
And with that she was on the first step and then looked back.
“You're not coming?” she asked slightly disappointed.
“We're a bit too old for all of that.”
“But-”
“Just go!” her step-mother said almost pushing her in and then she was off. She then waved them goodbye.

Scar Parents Fight Part Three

  Hunter’s Defence  Scar opened her eyes. She then walked down the stairs. She slowly took out her homework, just to take her mind off the day before she started doing it. She started with her maths to fode her mind to focus. She then moved onto literacy. After she had done both her mind felt sharp and clear of all of the upset. She looked up, it was half past seven. She then took a slice of bread. She then put it in the toaster and pulled out a tin of beans. Half of them had already been eaten the day feforeshe then put it in the bowl and then put it in the microwave for a minute. As she waited she picked up a newspaper. Three women arrested. They claimed to be witches yet none have any drugs in their system. They were arrested  for killing four children. When asked why they claimed  it was to obtain power. So they've been arrested. Good! She heard the beeping and soon put the beans on the plate then took the toast out and soon took out a fork. After ripping the toast in half she

The Nine Dragons The Serpent Dragon Part Three

  The Boa Army Loc was working hard in the field. It was getting to evening time. She had found that she liked working there as a farmer. There was just something so satisfying in doing hard work and made the food taste better and she slept better too. She could see herself doing this for the rest of her life however long that would be, yet she knew that she could not. Regardless of how much she liked the village and the people there. She had noticed that the people there looked almost like the people in her world just without any pupils and they were weaker too. She also noticed that despite this, they were all hard working and nothing was eaten until they had done their work. During this time she had completely recovered her whole energy and strength from all of the battles that she had on that day. She had also been able to gather her thoughts and psychology recovered and was able to have her time of mourning her losses from her rebellion. Yet she found that this might have been due

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Six

 The Purple Monster  “Why?” “Open the book and put all of the other Purple Artefacts into the page that it fits.” Doormaze nodded as she opened the book. On the first page as a hole where she put the Purple Purl in. The page glowed and for a moment. When the glowing died down the purl was in the page, almost like a picture. She then turned another page. There was another hole with a flower hole in. She then placed the Purple Flower in. It glowed and soon the flower was in the book. She turned the page, where she placed the Purple Feather in.  Once it became a picture the book glowed. Soon light flooded the room. All had to close their eyes as the light became far too bright. Then Doormaze no longer felt the book in her hands. She opened her eyes to see a light above her hands almost like a miniature star. What is this? Then it became so bright she had to close her eyes again. Then she felt something covering her body. It felt light and comfortable. Her eyes opened to see that she was c

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Four

  The Purple Book They travelled down the cave in West Mountain for an entire day. Yet they did not leave until the following day. They left the cave to see a group of small houses. They were all small and in the style of King Garnet’s castle. “This is the abandoned town of Faiton. It’s here somewhere. So I think we will have to go in them to find it. You need not worry, there has not been a single person seen here in decades.” The other three nodded. “And what does this next artefact look like?” “It is a purple book. It is made from the same material as the crystal flower.” “Right. Then, let’s split up and explore every house.” Doormaze spoke, punching her fist. “And mark the door of the house that has been checked and leave the door open while it's being checked.” “Good thinking.” They all split and walked into the first house that was closest to them. They all started on the ground floor. Then the first floor and the second floor. Upon seeing nothing, they left the house. They p

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Three

  The Purple Flower They, because it was late when they reached the top chamber, decided to take a break. They lit a fire and, after cooking a small stew, started to eat. “Now, tomorrow, where to next?” “Well, Doormaze, we must travel over the Flower Bridge. It used tobe a small village on a large plot of land that the other mouth of the cave leads to. The houses were too and far between. It was mainly covered in many different purple flowers.” “And that’s why it’s called Flower Bridge?” “Well, that is because of the plot of land that joins the East Mountain, which we are in, and West Mountain, which is where the Purple Flower is in, is naturally formed.” “And there is nothing underneath it.” “No.” “Well,” She said, finishing her meal. “That’s something to sleep on.” After they all ate their meal,they went to sleep. Doormaze dreamed of Natalie again. She opened her, now dragon, eyes. She walked over to the dragons. They were sound asleep. She smiled as she turned away from them. She wa

Scar Parents Fight Part Four

  Mother’s Knife Scar woke. She saw Morara right in front of her. She dived back as she punched her. She tried to unbuckle, yet she noticed that she soon noticed that it was jammed. She tried to pull the belt but that too was jammed. She tried to pull it again and again and again but it did nothing. She looked up in fear as she saw the knife coming at her. She quickly dived out of the way then the knife turned to her. She tried to punch her but she caught her wrist. She tried to pull her hand out of her hand. Yet she was too strong. She saw the knife getting closer and closer. She hit the arm as hard as she could which made her drop the knife. She then finally pulled out more of her belt and fell out. She then felt a slit in her arm. She let out a whimper as she looked up at Morana went to stab her again and again. She kicked her again and again and again. She looked at both Alex, who was unconscious. She drove her hands to his belt and she pulled the belt and he hit his head as he fel

Scar Parents Fight Final Part

  Assassin’s Sacrifice  Charlotte, knowing that none of them had any time or chance to call an ambulance, ran. She knew where the hospital was and that none of them had any time to lose. She ran down the street as fast as she could. Yet it must have been obvious where she was running to as Morana looked at her innanyer and knew in that moment she would kill to stop her from going there.  Her parents had the exact expression on their faces when she had to stop pretending that she was a boy. After all, they always wanted a boy and when she was born a girl they tried to turn her into one. But the only thing that reminded them that she was a girl was her name, which they shortened to Charlie at one point. Just to keep the illusion that she was a boy alive in their deluded minds. The only thing that got her out of that situation was the series of dead girls that were her sisters and only one son being alive at the cost of her neglect. Van Kira, she remembered his name was. “Oh no you don’t!
