The Anti-Fairy Tales The Beanstalk And The Giant Arc Part Three

 Captured By The Giant


She looked at the giant as he walked around the kitchen. He picked up the bread and looked at it. He smiled as he sniffed. His eyes looked up as he licked his lips.

"Looks like we have a little mouse in this house of mine!" He sang.

He looked around and sniffed again but longer and deeper. His eyes darted all around. She knew that he was looking for her. So she remained as silent as she could. She could feel her heart in her ears as she looked around. He opened cupboards and then closets where the pots and pans were. He then closed them again. He then opened door after door. Yet she could feel herself shaking slightly as she wondered if she should get out and run before he turned to where she was. 

Then she heard the sound of a ting next to her. She looked to see that as she shook she nudged two glasses next to her. She looked back to see that the giant looked back to where she was. She forced herself to stop moving. She hoped that if the giant did not hear another sound then he would have thought that he was hearing things and moved on. 

Yet he chuckled to himself and looked back. He then took a bite out of the bread and sniffed and sniffed. She started to wonder if the giant had a cold or something as he continued sniffing and sniffing, almost as if he was about to sneeze at any moment. Yet as he looked closely around it was all too clear by looking at his face he had no such thing. 

Hold on? Does he think that he can smell me?

"I smell strange blood here." He shouted. 

So he can smell me!

"Oh yes! It doth smell strange. I smell a royal girl yet I smell the Demon King too!"

What? How? Is he here? Did he follow me? Has he been following me the entire time? If so, why? 

"However it doth not matter. I have to go." 

He then walked to the door and opened and closed it again. Soon he was out of sight. She closed her eyes as relief spread throughout her body. She listened as she heard nothing. She let out a sigh as she slid down. She looked around and could not see Wolfox anywhere. Then it occurred to her.

I smell like Wolfox? She though as she drew herself in,wrapping her arms around her legs. She suddenly looked back on the kingdom of Glahod. She remembered all that he did to her and all the times she used his power. She remembered how he was able to easily destroy that kingdom and all that she had heard all that he had done. Yet now she knew that she smelt of him and of her royal blood.

How? How do I smell like him? Never mind that. How could Engleman smell my royal blood and the Wolfox? Why do I even smell like him anyway? What am I?

That was when her mind locked upon whenever she was on the verge of death or in other types of grave peril or so blinded by rage and anger. Then she thought about that power, his power, she felt a strange change. Her eyes would become like that of Wolfox. She would even carry a smaller version of the weapon that he used too!

Why do I do that? How do I even have such a weapon? Why do my eyes change like that? Could it be that I am not as human as I should be?

She suddenly felt a cold chill run down her spine. She drew herself in closer and closer her eyes. she shook her head as she burried it in her knees.

Anyway, I'm not getting any answers here. She thought, getting back onto her feet.

She hoped the small cupboard that she was in. She looked around as she wondered if she should get back to the window and leave or go to the door and walk in further into the mansion. Knowing that there would be no other way to get back to her friends, she turned to the door. She ran to the edge of the table and looked down. She felt her stomach drop as she saw how high up she was. Yet she then looked for a way down. 

Her eyes spotted that there were two handles at the bottom. Seeing that there was no other way down she lowered herself. She then let go of the ledge. She gripped the handles with shaky hands. She could feel a lump in her throat as she looked down. She noticed that if she fell from this hight, then she would injure herself. She looked up still wondering if she had made the right choice. Yet this only showed her that there was no turning back from this one. 

She looked to her right and saw that the edge of the door was close by. She then knew that she could use this. So she flicked her foot out and pushed against the other door,forcing it to swing open. Then as the door swung open,she had to hold on tighter as it bounced back. She then flung her arm out and let go of the hand of the handle. She then slid down, her sweat helped slow her decent. Then she reached the bottom and fell onto her floor. Her back erupted in pain as she landed. 

She grunted in pain. She covered her mouth,hoping that none heard her. Seeing than none had she let out another sigh. She then climbed on her feet, pushing past the pain. She then raced to the door and was about to reach it when she felt her body being yanked back. She soon looked in the grey eyes of the giant.

"I thought I could smell something strange here. Although I never thought that it would be a young lady like thee."

 She tried to kick him in his eyes but he pulled her back.

"Oh my! Thout art a lively one! However I will soon break thee in!"

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...

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 toa...

The Nine Dragons The Dragon Of The Ground Part Four

 Defending The Town  It was nearly an hour after sunrise when Loc saw the army on the far end of the tunnel. She looked back at Gina. She nodded and gave her a couple of coins with a dragon head on. “There’s a weapon’s shop at the edge.” Loc gave her the basket and ran to it. “Doyouhavammer!” “What?” “Do you have a hammer?” “Yes.” She gave him the coins. Yet then he looked at her eyes and his widened. “That’s enough for two.” He took them and took out two large hammers. She took them. She felt the weight and threw them in the air a few times. “Good weight!” “Hold on! You can hold them both?” “Yeah. Can’t the women of this world do the same?” “No. Not even some men can do that.” She raised her eyebrow, however she knew that she did not have time to appreciate what he had just said. She ran out as she knew that they were reaching the town. I need to take them away from the town. She thought as some passed her. She ran to the closest one. She jumped in the air and thrust her ham...

The Nine Dragons The Dragon Of The Ground Part Fourteen

 The Rock Dragon  Loc and the other two arrived at where the rock dragon lay. It looked at them with glowing amber eyes and had the shape of a turtle that was large. It had a head the shape of a wolf and had a long tail with four rows of spikes shaping an X at the tip. It had a pair of wings tucked away, yet the body had become too large to fly. It may have been able to fly once upon a time, but not now. After years of being glutinous, it had grown too heavy for it’s body. Upon seeing them it charged at them, making it's body sway from side to side rapidly. They all moved out of the way. They ran to opposite corners. Then it turned around and looked at Shiro directly in the eye. Soon Loc ran and went to jump upon it’s back only to feel pain in her side. The next moment she slammed into the walls. Then a spike fell from the roof of the cave. Loc rolled out of the way and soon the itching flared up as she felt her bones being crushed. Yet then she saw another fall and another an...

The Nine Dragons The Dragon Of The Ground Final Part

 Sorrowful Rest Loc spent most of her time between sleep and rest in the underground library, as she tried to stop herself from crying. Looking at the whole place, Loc could not help but feel nostalgic for Billy’s Bookshop. She almost could not help but feel the expectation of the faen walking up to her asking her for what book she would like to buy and read this time. Yet this brought more tears as she had to remind herself that she was not in her world as she picked out the first book. She sat on a stone bench outside and looked at the book and opened it. In the year of three after the dragon  defeated the royals and has taken all our first born and killed them. Then another dragon of great beauty and  majesty carved out pits where she  regurgitated up a strange liquid that made up a series of pools. Then the  rock dragon did the same and put the dead firstborn in. Then they all grew  rock over their flesh and came out alive and as rock. Then, upon the or...

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Final Part

 The Piece  They looked at the piec. Doormaze walked up to it. She picked it up and took a closer look at it. She felt very tired as she looked at the other two. “Well, what are you waiting for?” She looked up at the castle as she let out a yawn. She then looked back at them. She could tell that both of them were tired. “What?” “We’re the only people here.” “And?” “We’re all tired and I don’t know when the next time we will be sleeping in a good and warm bed.” “So?” “I think that we should call it a night. Find a bed and take some time off tomorrow.” “Why?” “We all need it.” They looked at each other and they soon found a velvet royal purple bed. They flopped into them and went to sleep the moment that their heads hit the pillows. The following day Doormaze looked around the castle, wondering who lived in it and what they were like. She then walked into a library filled with dusty only books of all shades of purple. She looked at the spines with writing of silver and gold. Her...

She and the twins explained everything to them.

Promise!” “Well, your mum will be coming soon. She has been worried about you all afternoon. You know that she’s a busy woman and she gets worried when you don’t come home.
