Chapter 1: The beginning before the beginning
Its time to tell truth. The truth about what really happened when I bit that apple. Yes, this is coming from me Snowhite. It’s all his fault that stupid little- I can’t even say it! He so awful He spread this rumor and made me look like the girly girl princess. I was the hardiest of them all! Everyone calls me the prissy princess, just because I had a high voice! I’m tired of being made fun and here all these lies about stepmother, the dwarfs, the prince and me. So here's the real Story because the public deserves the truth whether they want to hear it or not.
One day my Mother was out carving a wooden toy for when I was born. ( Carving was one of her favorite pastimes she carved under the tables during boring banquets, and council meeting, since she was not included in any of these things and was only there as a public figure.) Right now, she was making a buck for the set of woodland creatures she was making since she didn’t know if I was a boy or a girl. As she was carving the antlers, her hand slipped and she cut herself. In surprise, she dropped the figure and her knife. She watched as a line of blood ran off her finger and dropped onto the snowy ground. (Don’t ask me why she was outside, in the middle of winter, probably hoping to find a buck to carve off of.) When she looked at the ground she looked at the wooden carving made of ebony, (ebony was her favorite wood to carve with, she was also carving with here favorite knife with a gold handle and a blade of silver, it was an anniversary present.) and thought “My goodness what their was a girl like that with skin as white as snow, hair like ebony, teeth as shiny as silver, lips as red as blood, and a heart as pure as gold! Why she would be the prettiest and nicest thing on the planet!” The young queen was suddenly filled with a desire for such a daughter. She called on her fairy godmother to grant this wish. (For every member of royalty by birth rights of marriage have a fairy godmother.) Her fairy godmother agreed to this but told her that bringing a creature so good into the world would cause her a considerable amount of pain. My mother just nodded and looked back down at the almost finished buck and another thought struck that would make her perfect child complete. “I want” Mother stated, the fairy was already looking upset at what my mother was going to say “My daughter to be able to talk to animals and have animals lover her and understand her.” The fairy crying by now, the fairy managed to sob out the words “ The ch-child would b-be too per-perfect to be born in-into the w-world without, without, without you dy-dying!!” fairy was sobbing this hard because she loved the queen and knew the queen would do anything to have this child even give up her life. Since what the queen wanted, the queen got. Mother just lifted her head high and accepted death like that.
After the fairy left my mother made her will, along with a paper that stated her dying wishes. She started making things that only girls would want. Like necklaces and bracelets out wooden beads, she had carved. She painted pretty designs on the beads. My father was to busy to notice that she was now referring to they baby as “she” and only making items girls would want. But her best friend Melissa, noticed. Melissa was mother’s friend since she was a young duchess; they had grown up together, playing in the passages, and the gardens. Only Melissa was not of royal personage, she was the daughter of a maid. As soon as Melissa was old enough she became Mother’s maid, actually Mother insisted that Melissa would be her maid. Today Melissa still was Mother’s maid, though she rarely played the part. Mostly she was doing whatever Mother was doing since it was Melissa who had taught Mother how to carve in the first place.
The day after mother had made her wish Melissa confronted her in the nursery where Mother was rocking in a rocking chair that she knew she would never use . “Gabbie what are you up to?” Melissa demanded in a stern voice, she had a glint in her hazel eyes that meant she was going to get the answer out of Mother whether she liked it or not. Mother sighed knowing Melissa wasn’t going to like what she heard “I’m going to die when I give birth to my baby” Mother mumbled from somewhere inside the curtain of thick blonde hair that covered her face. “Oh, no Gabbie no,” Melissa moaned” Why? Why here? Why now?” Melissa was more than just anguished for the lost of her friend, she was also mourning the lost of a happy future, for she was having a child due in the same month and they had planned for the children to be friends and have play dates together while they talked about what their children had done, and how they acted. If Mother died, Melissa wasn’t sure she could make it through the loss of her only friend. Mother than explained the whole thing while Melissa ran her fingers through her chocolate hair and tears pouring down her face as she learned the fate of Mother, though the not the whole time did she make a sound, for she knew that if she started weeping out loud Mother wouldn’t finish and she wanted to know every detail. Finally, when Mother was done Melissa let it all go sobs racked her body as she fought to breathe through her wails. Concerned for her friend showed in Mother’s sapphire eyes as she wrapped an arm around her friend. Secretly Mother was frightened since Melissa had always been the strong one. She wrapped an arm around her sobbing friend. “ Lissy, Lissy” Mother whispered “I thought you would take this better” Melissa looked up when she had calmed down enough to speak understandable words “ I’m sorry I’m sorry” Melissa’s voice cracked, hoarse from all the crying “ I should take this better, its just you’re my only friend and I don’t think I can stand to loose you.” Melissa looked up. Hazel eyes met sapphire, the hazel eyes bloodshot from crying, sapphire filled with concern and they both understood. Their lives where so irrevocably linked together that it would be impossible for one to live without the other. “What are you going to do?” Mother asked as Melissa got up dusted of her close and started to head for the door. “Die with you of course” Melissa stated as she left the room and walked down the corridor a plan forming in her head. She left Mother alone in the nursery to think of how she had caused the death of her best friend.
Melissa was running down the corridor as she finished her plan she thought a loud “Gabbie obviously hasn’t seen the flaw yet.” she muttered as she slowed down to a walk, out of breath still thinking. She kept walking until she reached her bedchambers, which were much more lavish than normal bedchambers for a maid. She sat down on her queen-sized bed and called upon Mother’s fairy godmother, since Melissa wasn’t royalty the Queen shared hers with Melissa. When the fairy popped up she sighed in relief seeing that it wasn’t Mother.” What can I do for you?” Melissa didn’t really want to break the fairy’s happy mood, she sighed. “Well it’s about as fun as a task as that Gabbie gave you.” The fairy's face drooped. “Not you to?” she asked in a quiet voice. Melissa nodded slowly. “Here is what I want, I want to have a baby boy that is to be born on the same day as Gabble’s baby, and I want him to have hair the color of carrots and tomatoes, eyes blue or green depending on his mood, the build of one who can run fast, teeth as shiny as silver, a heart of gold and her should be able to shape shift, also can you let the girl shift into any animal, can you do all that?” The fairy nodded her head “I would like to request one more thing” Melissa leaned up close to the fairy and whispered something in her ear. “I can do all this child” The fairy said gravely “But you do know that you, will-““Die?” Melissa answered, “Yes I do” and with that, she returned to the nursery and explained every thing to Mother. They both decided that they would live out of the remainder of there life as if nothing had changed. They set down to make things for their children that they would never see.
It was the Month of April when we were born. Fathers tan faced was flushed with worry, as was Melissa’s Husband, as they watch their wives scream in pain that was ten times worse than normal labor pains. As we were pushed out, bother or Mothers declared or names with their dying breaths. “Call her” Mother gasped, “Call her Arabella Cassandra Gabriella Sara Whitney” on the other side of the room, Melissa had quite a less mouthful to say, “His name will be Aymery,” Melissa stated and with that they both died. Melissa maid of the queen was never to be again. While Queen Gabriella Diane Fiona Rebbecca was dead as well leaving behind to perfect (literally) children. The female child was of course me.

It explained a lot of things that the movie didn’t, like the animals and what happen to her mother. However, it can still be improved, so here we go!
