The Anti-Fairy Tales The Giant And The Fish Part Two

 The Trip


The following day Pheoshan woke from a short and light sleep. In fact she hardly got that much sleep at all! All she could think about was how she whipped the old librarian. She recalled each whip and each cry in vivid detail. She repeated this in her mind again and again, almost like it was on a loop. A loop that made her feel sick. Yet try as she might, she could not get it out of her head!

What am I tuning into? Why did I do that? Could there have been another way? Could I have not stopped myself or persuaded him not to harm the old man? Why did I not just say no to him?

What am I doing? What am I doing? What am I still doing here? Nevermind that, what will I be once I leave this place?

Yet it was at this moment she realised that even if she and the Kin siblings were to escape, he would only chance after them. Yet even worse she would be leaving others behind to be abused by him. This was the one thing that shifted her purpose of being here. She knew that it was going to be a challenge. Yet deep down, regardless of what she might tell herself, she knew that she was the only one that could do this task. No, more like she was the only one who would do it.

I have to kill this giant.

But how? He's bigger than me!

One step at a time.

She wiped away the rest of the sleep in her eyes as Engleman pulled the bars off and gave her the potion. She drank it and soon she was being offered a pair of black leather trousers and a top made of sheep's skin.

"What is this for?"

"We will be going on a trip."

She frowned.

"Where are we going?" She asked out of curiosity.

He smirked.

"I will tell thee on our way."

She forced a smile upon her face.

"Oh, I see. Leave it a surprise."

He let out a laugh as he turned away, giving her some privacy as she put on the clothes.

"Will we be needing any food?"

"Yes."

"Then I will get the cooks on that."

"Good girl. Also do not forget thine whip!" He sang.

She nodded as she felt her blood run ice cold. She walked to the door and then took the whip and walked to the kitchens.

"Look, all of you, prepare some food for the road. We will be going on a trip."

They all looked at her and nodded. She helped them all prepare the food. She glanced at the clock and took a sip of the potion. She ensured that she looked at all the food. Making sure that it was to Engleman's standard. Once she knew that the food was up to standard she joined Engleman at the door. She noticed that he had a fishing rod.

"We're catching fish?"

"Yes, but just one." He said as they left.

"What fish is that?"

"A fish that was created by none other than the Prince Captain himself!"

"Who?"

He looked at her and frowned.

"Never mind. The fish that I am looking for is called the cerlock fish. It hath purple scales with an emerald shine. One eye is green and the other is amber."

She nodded as they travelled for an hour. She took a sip of her potion. She used it to count how many hours went by. They passed a small town before they arrived at an emerald lake. It was surrounded by turquoise trees with purple bark. The whole place almost sparkled as the sun touched it. She had to drink in the absolute beauty of the place.

Then she heard a giant jump out of the bushes. He pounced upon Engleman. He punched down. He dodged the fist and punched him in the gut. He then pulled out a dagger and drove it into the back of the head of the other giant. He pulled it out and cleaned the blade.

"What a waste of my time! Now, let us start fishing."

"Wow, that was amazing!"

"Thank you!"

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!
