Book !, Chapter !
"Well
there are so many funny things about Halloween," said S.I.M.O.N.,
"But one thing I really don't follow up on this whole Trick Or Treat
thing." He stuck a knife into a pumpkin and began to cut around the stem.
"All I ever see are treats, and you'll get in trouble for tricks. And how
do you know the little brat at your doorstep dressed up like a goblin isn't an
actual goblin? It's so confusing!"
Ursela
turned around from her pumpkin patch outside. She stuck her head through the
slide door to the inside. "I'm sorry, were you talking to me?"
S.I.M.O.N.
just rolled his eyes. "Never mind then."
Ursela
rolled some pumpkins into her house, rabbits and squirrels following behind. From
the field they heard their dear friend Drake growl. He came too the door, mauled
rabbit in hand and slammed it on the floor. The other critters backed away
slowly, hiding behind Ursela in fear.
Drake gave
Ursela a fierce glare, then met her eye to eye as he walked to the kitchen with
two pumpkins, on one shoulder. "Get your little bastards together, Snow
White," he said bitterly, then slammed the pumpkins on the table. this
nearly made the knife in S.I.M.O.N.' s hand fly out, but he kept a steady grip.
He set the knife down carefully and brushed off the dirt on his button-up. Then
S.I.M.O.N. gave Drake warning look. "You know, I'd appreciate it if you
didn't take such a close friend's name in vain." he said.
"Yeah
yeah yeah, I get it Mr.Fairytale, you wanna go home," complained Drake,
"Well, you already know kid, you can't go back until we find a legitimate way
back." He stuck his hand into the top of the pumpkin, long, sharpened
nails piercing the pumpkin, and ripped
out the stem. "Until then, you're just gonna have to live in our world."
S.I.M.O.N.
let out a heavy, sad sigh. "Yes, I understand..." He then looked at
Ursela's bookshelf, which had many old books, including the Fairytale
collection that he had came from. Back in the book world, he was a fairy prince
of the sun, a true fae of royalty. And he still has his magic, but he's stuck
in a mortal body. Which means that unlike his royal fae body, he can die very
easily. Which also means he has to be careful, VERY careful, here in Fitzville.
Because
there are people like Drake, wanted criminals and mass-murderers, that live
here in Fitzville, and the mayor is too scared to even try to do something
about it. 'Though,' thought S.I.M.O.N., 'It's probably the smart thing to do,
hiding and all, since they don't seem to be the normal Earth criminal. Though
if this was my city I would execute them.'
The thought
of burning Drake at the stake somehow pleased him. It sent a hot sensation from
his heart to his ears, and he giggled with excitement. He closed his eyes
whilst still giggling, and he had zoned out a bit.
Because
when he had opened his eyes, he had found the knife he was using to carve the
pumpkin in Drake's abdomen. Drake looked down blade, then slowly brought his
head up to meet S.I.M.O.N.'s in an angry
gaze. he pulled the knife slowly out of his stomach. And dropped it on the
ground.
"You
better run, kid," growled Drake, warning hi m.
S.I.M.O.N.
smiled with confidence yet worrisome. "Bring it on, a prince can surely
take you down."
Is S.I.M.O.N. the prince from Snow White? I like the idea of characters being plucked from their fictional worlds. I Drake not mortal because he is in his world still?
ReplyDeleteS.I.M.O.N. is the prince yes. I decided to add a my own little background for him, since he isn't really given one in the fairytales. And I don't understand the second question...
