WE NOW BEGIN OUR STORY!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Once upon a time there was a little girl who lived far, far away in a big castle in the middle of the forest. She never got to leave the castle because her Mother and her mean old stepFATHER were afraid someone would kidnap her and hold her for ransom, because they were sooooo rich. Then finally one night after everyone else was asleep.
Kim Hill 02-27-94
the little girl decided that she just had to get out and see the real world. She got so bored being locked inside the castle walls. So she waited until everyone in the household was fast asleep. She snuck out of her room and quietly lowered the bridge so that she could cross the moat. She walked out into the bright moonlight intending to explore close to castle in the forest. Suddenly a shadow fell across her....

and she let out a LOUD scream!!!!!!! then all of the sudden.......
Sarah Barrett 03-01-94
She fell into a hole. Down, down, down she fell. When she finally hit bottom, she discovered to her amazement that she was in a beautiful city with gold and silver all around her. She began to wander down the cobbled streets past little shops and restaurants. Not paying attention to where she walked, she ran into a mirror and discovered that she was no longer a little girl. From the reflection in the mirror, she realized that she was about 20 years old and then

a man walked up behind her, startling her. He asked her name and where she was from. She answered him, and he went on about his way. she was all set to explore this strange new world. She found that all of the people of this strange new land were unusually friendly and polite. Many people greeted her with "Hello"'s and "How are you doing?"
Brandon Sharp 03-24-94
She had never before been around people who were so nice (her stepfather being wicked and all) and she felt completely overwhelmed. Everything in this new world was so beautiful she couldn't quit staring.
Kim Hill 03-25-94
As she stood and stared at all the wonderful things around her, a man of about 25 years of age walked up behind her. She was startled at the way he was looking at her. Then she remembered that she was now about 20 years old. the man asked her who she was and she told him. He invited her to his castle for dinner. Not knowing what else to do she accepted his invitation. As the sat at dinner....
Dawn McKenzie 04-09-94
At dinner she noticedthat the man was really nice and he cared about her. The girl was so happy someone liked her for what she is not for who she is. Well, the girl ate so much food that night at the mans' house she had a stomach pain. The girl had to get back to the castle that night but she had trouble walking. The man offered the girl to stay the night. She had to refuse, because if

she was not at her castle before morning, her step father would be very mad at her since she left, (especially since it was night) and she did not
Andrew Cutini 06-15-94
tell anyone she was leaving. Then! All of a sudden, she remembered that she was almost 21 years old now and pretty soon no one would be able to tell her what to do, including her mean old stepfather!!! So she changed her mind and decided to accept the kind prince's offer to stay at his castle. The prince instructed his servants to run her a bath and find night clothes to fit her. When the maid ushered the young girl into the bathroom, the girl couldn't believe her eyes. There was the biggest bathtub she had ever seen. It was filled nearly to the top with inches of bubbles. She felt like a little kid again. Then the maid came back and told her that the prince wanted to see her again before bedtime.
Kim Hill 06-29-94
After she had had her bath, she went to see the prince. When she entered the room, he pointed to a beautiful chair covered with crimson velvet and told her to sit down. When she sat down, the chair was so comfortable that she was overwhelmed with sleepiness and could hardly keep her eyes open. But then the prince said something that made her eyes open wide and she had never felt so awake. The prince said...
April Hutchison 08-05-94
you are very beautiful and I would be honored to have you as my bride. The girl went to her room and thought about all night. The next morning, when she saw the prince at the dining table, she said...
Brandon Sharp 08-22-94
"Sure, but first you have to take me shopping!"...the princess had truly become a woman. "I'll need a dress, and clothes for the honeymoon..what colors are we going to use?..I think???"
The handsome man summoned the court magician to send her away. The magician appeared and said "A La Peanut Butter Sandwiches!!!"and then...
Jeff Elliott 10-06-94
the girl disappeared. The prince was quite relieved that he didn't have to take her shopping but a little disappointed that he no longer had a prospective wife.
The girl had been a little overwhelmed at the though of being a princess, but after a good night's sleep she got used to the idea. Even so, nothing had prepared her for the sight that her wide eyes beheld. Almost immediately after the magician appeared, she suddenly and magically arrived in a land called Magellyn...
April Hutchison 10-09-94
A dark place, where vanity and pride had overwhelmed everyone. While there she encountered the magician again and begged him to send her home. The magician smiled and said...

her Great Aunt's diary, which contained several spicy adventures. You see, her Great Aunt was the only person prior to the present time who had shown her any kindmess. This diary taught her the facts of life as well as common sense. She cherished it greatly and now they were going to take it away. She refused and decided to do back to her dull life with her Stepfather and Mother. Within a few years She had decided that she did not like men at all but women had always caught her eye. She came out to her parents as a lesbian and is living with her current lover in a cottage not far from her parents' castle.
Edie Eberhardt 01-09-95
Well, needless to say her stepfather has had trouble coping with his stepdaughters lifestyle. So one day he thought long and hard about what he should do. Finally, he decided too.......
Chris Rose 01-14-95
Well, here is what he did. Now you have to remember, the stepfather was going through a lot of stress, because of his stepdaughters chosen lifestyle.
My ***, just think of what the neighboring kingdoms would think if they found out the truth!! You see the stepfather was not exactly an openminded individual. So, like most close-minded, short tempered people, he did something really stupid. So he picked up "MOTHER LOAD" (his trusty sword), and jumped on his trusty horse and headed for his stepdaughter's home.......
Chris Rose 01-18-95
On the way to the home, he met a young lady that was lost. He decided he would help her find her way back home. It turned out that this young lady was really his stepdaughter's lover, and, to much suprise to him when he found out, a witch. She had cast a spell on the stepdaughter to make her fall in love with her and hate men. Before he could figure anything out, she had captured him and was starting to cast a spell that would make him fall in love with her gay general. He had only second's left to escape when.......
Ken Traub 01-27-95
the witch spontaneously combusted. the king gagged in total horror as flames engulfed the his stepdaughter's lover. Her appearance began to change as she was slowly consumed by the flames. She grew to over 3 times her normal size and her skin became a myriad of shifting colors.
When the flames died down, the King then realized that his stepdaughter's lover hadn't been human at all, but a...
Jeremy Shelley 02-05-95
horrible demon in disguise. The part of the spell that the witch/demon had all ready cast was slowly starting to take effect. The king had a choice he could either slay the demon to save his stepdaughter and stay forever in love with the general or he could save himself by running away. He chose to.....
Ken Traub 02-09-95
slay both the demon and the general so that he could save both himself and his daughter. Suddenly the general appeared in a cloud of white smoke. He laughed and giggled like a schoolgirl. "So you don't want to marry me," he asked the king.
"Not on your life," said the king as he drew "MOTHER LOAD" (his trusty sword, remember.) He let out a loud scream as he dashed towards the demon and it's general. With a couple of strong blows of his swords, all that was left of the two villain was a bubbling puddle of green ooze.
"Nice one," thought the king as he put his sword away. Since his stepdaughter had been away for so long, he had begun to miss her. He rode his trusty steed, Lightning, to his stepdaughter's house. When he got there she was nowhere to be found. All that was left was her favorite stuffed animal on the floor. The house was a disaster. As the king looked around, he thought to himself, "This can only be the work of...."
Brandon Sharp 03-04-95
Rob the slayer. He tore into the house because he had heard of her beauty. In the struggle to capture her for his wife the whole house was torn apart. By this point both Rob and the daughter were many miles away in another kingdom. So the stepfather decided to......
Ken Traub 03-05-95
search around the house some more, hoping to find a clue as to where Rob had taken his stepdaughter. He saw muddy footprints leading to the far wall. Just as the footprints touched the wall, they disappeared. He walked over and touched the wall. As his bony finger graced the wall, it went right through. In surprise, he immediatly jerked his hand back. "It seems as though the dreaded Rob has enlisted the help of one of his evil sorceror friends," though the king, "He probably bribed Yugoh the wizard to help him capture my step-daughter." Not wanting to let the pair get the best of him, the brave king stepped through the wall. He was immediatly transported to a strange world. As he looked about, he saw...
Brandon Sharp 03-06-95
a vast land filled with many people. He began to ask some of these people where Rob had taken his stepdaughter.
While the king was out playing Sherlock Holmes, the princess was being held captive in a large castle by Rob. She looked around in disgust. "What a horrid mess this place is," thought the princess as she wrinkled her nose. "It smells like a wet horse in spring!" At that moment, Rob walked into the room.
"So, my beautiful lady," said Rob, "have you reconsidered my proposal of marrage?"
"Yes, I considered it," said the princess sarcastically, "but I still will NOT marry the likes of you!"
"WIZARD," shouted Rob, "Cast a spell on this stupid girl to make her fall madly in love with me."
"As you wish," said the wizard. "Grazahabniomitzha," said the wizard as he make quick movements with his wand."
The princess watched timidly as yet another insidious spell was cast upon her. When the spell was completed, she collapsed to the floor. Rob walked over to where she lay. He picked up her head and started to kiss her. Suddenly, the princess slapped him hard on the face.
"Ow," said Rob as he staggered backwards, "That hurt. Wizard, I thought she was supposed to love me."
"She is," said the wizard, backing up against the wall. As his back graced the wall, something shiny caught his eye. He looked at the princess. On her neck was a jeweled necklace. "Master," cried the wizard, "I know what was wrong. T.Th.That necklace prevented my magic from affecting her."
Rob swung his head around in the direction of the princess, but she was gone...
Brandon Sharp 03-13-95
The princess had ran down a wierd street. It had this black sticky stuff on it. Then she heard this odd guy say "get the **** out of the way" then a big carrige with no horses come plowing by without horses. Then a big wire came down and ....
Art Cripps 03-14-95
the dexterious princess immediatly grabbed it. It continued on its downward arc and then began its upward ascent. She released the wire and landed on a small platform. She saw a ladder at the other end and ran towards it. She heard screams of fury behind her; no doubt Rob and his accomplice. She scurried down the ladder and landed on yet another platform. This one was even more narrow than the previous one. She began to wobble and then fell. She landed on the ground, which thankfully was not a very far drop. She got to her feet and dusted her blue dress off. As she looked up, she saw a large iron bird soar overhead. This place that Rob had taken her to was certainly a very strange one indeed.
Before she could take a step, she felt a tingling sensation around her neck. It was the necklace that had protected her before. It was glowing a pale pink hue, and was humming. Suddenly a bright burst of light shot forth from the necklace. The princess observed what seemed to be a pool of water in front of her. Without knowing what she was doing, she walked towards the bright pond, and stepped through it. She was instantly surrounded by millions of starlike lights. They began to swirl about her body like a whirlpool. She felt warm all over. Then, as quickly as the sensation began, it ended. She looked around and noticed that she was now back in her own room in her castle. Her mother dashed in. "Oh, I'm so glad you're home," said the queen, "Your stepfather went out looking for you. He sent word that you were missing and went in search for you."
"I must go find him," said the girl as she sprinted out the door. As she walked outside the castle, a thought hit her. Maybe the prince would help her, if she weren't so rude to him this time around. She tried to remember where the hole was that she had previously fallen down. She looked all around and...
Brandon Sharp 03-14-95
Suddenly, the princess found herself falling through the same hole that she had previously fallen down. She landed on the cobbled street of the town once again. She arose, dusted herself off, and took off towards the prince's palace. Without looking where she was going, she ran into the cold smooth surface of the mirror that had previously delayed her. As she gazed upon the mirror, she saw the image of a little girl. One that she had almost forgotten. She was now about 7 years old again.
"I'll never be able to rescue my stepfather now," she cried. She found the remaining stump of an oak tree and sat on it, sobbing. A man walked up to her and asked her what was wrong. As the girl looked up, she saw it to be that of the prince. She suddenly embraced him, to his surprise. The prince immediatly recoiled. She explained to him what had happened. He thought her story to be unavoidably convincing and decided to trust her.
"Magician," he declared loudly, "Help to change her into what she once was." With a simple wave of his wand, the magician encircled the princess in a glowing aura of color. She spun around until she thought she would get sick. When the spell was finished, she collapsed to the ground, now a fully grown woman of 20 again. The prince ran over to her to help her up. As the girl was helped to her feet, she asked, "Is that offer of marriage still available?"
Brandon Sharp 03-15-95
The prince looked at her and asked, "What are you talking about?" She couldn't understand what was happening until she looked up and saw a young girl fall to the ground and age quickly to the point that she herself now was. It seemed like she had arrived minutes before she had previously entered and the prince was now meeting her for the first time. She looked down and noticed that the necklace was once again beginning to glow. She could not understand why it was doing this. Come to think of it she couldn't even remember where the necklace had come from. She began to think and realized that her real mother was....
Ken Traub 04-03-95
actually born of this land. She could now remember everything. How her mother had given her the necklace. How she had told her that the necklace would help her if she was in danger.
The prince was obviously befuddled. The girl that had just fallen down and aged before him looked just like the one that had asked him to marry her. The princess thought for a second and decided that if he treated the girl that had just fallen down the hole any differently than he had treated her when she had fallen, then her fate would not be the same. She told the prince exactly what had happened. The prince nodded in agreement.
And so, the prince did exactly what he had done before, even though he had no awareness that he HAD done anything like that before. After the girl had been banished once again, the latter girl (who is actually the same person at a later date) told the prince everything that had happened. She asked him if he could help her father. The prince replied...
Brandon Sharp 04-13-95
"Why do you wish for the gay city life? What does it hold for you? You have a family at home that really loves and cherishes you. You should give your folks another chance. They really love you. The girl replies...
Wade Settle 04-24-95
"No," said the girl, "you don't understand! I was under a spell that made me that way. My step-father helped me by breaking the spell, so now I need to help him. He's trapped in another world searching for me! You must help!"
"Alright," said the prince, as he saddled up his horse, "Let's go!"
The young woman, with the help of the prince, climbed aboard the horse and sat herself behind the prince.
"Hold on," said the prince as he commanded the steed.
"Whoah," the princess said as the horse jumped to a start. She clutched the prince's cape as they rode back to the land from which she had come from. She directed him to her cabin. When they arrived, the prince dismounted and assisted the girl. They walked into the cabin and searched around.
As the prince walked into one of the small rooms of the cottage, he called out, "Is this it?"
The princess ran into the room. "Yes, that's it," said the princess. She entrusted in him all the information that she knew about the strange portal.
"Well," said the prince, "if it worked once, it has to work again."
They both agreed and jumped into the portal; but...
Brandon Sharp 04-25-95
It turned out that only the posseser of the necklace could go through the magic portal. The princess suddenly felt dizzy and started to have some memories of her childhood. It turns out that not only was her mother from this world, but she was also a Fairy Queen. The neclace that was entruseted to the princess was to be used to pass though the portal to protect her from the people searching for fairy magic. The Fairy Queen went had went through the portal into a world that did not have much belief in fairies. She took her daughter to the first person she met which happened to be a local prince (we now know him as the king or her stepfather) and entrusted her to him. The princess suddenly recovered after this memory and ....
Ken Traub 04-27-95
Found that now, she too, had reached her full potential as a fairy. She now knew everything that had occurred in her shadowy past. She now knew how to use her powers and so decided to bring the prince with her. She flew off towards what had once been her home, before her mother had delivered her to the world that she had grown up in. As she entered the house, she immediatly entered one of the many rooms in the giant house. She also remembered the reason her mother had decided to take her to the other world. Her mother was afraid of all of the fairies being taken by Rob. If Rob had all of the fairies, he would control the universe by using their powers. She found her mother's necklace on her bed. It was a glimmering green. She returned to the portal where the prince had been left. She entered and came out in the human world. She found the prince staring around, still dazed from what had happened. She explained everything to him. At first, he started to doubt her, but his love for her told him she was telling the truth. She handed the necklace to him and gestured for him to wear it as he went through the portal. They now jumped through the portal again and appeared in the fairy world. Now, they set off towards Rob's fortress to free her stepfather and, hopefully, the princess' mother...
Brandon Sharp 04-28-95
But what they didn't know was that the princess's mother was already dead. Rob had found a way to trap the fairy power into a magic medallion. Once the magic was removed from a fairy they could no longer live. They continued toward the castle hoping that it was not to late. Meanwhile in the dungeon of Rob's castle, Rob was questioning the princess's stepfather to try to find out where she was. The stepfather didn't know where she was and he kept telling Rob this. The next thing he knew....
Ken Traub 04-29-95
The wizard held the medallion that the princess' mother had been trapped in up to the stepfather's neck. As soon as the necklace was placed upon his neck, he felt himself slip into unconsciousness.
It turns out that although a fairy may be dead when they are trapped inside a magic medallion, their powers still remain. Rob then questioned the stepfather, who now subconsciously had the Fairy Queens powers.
"Where is your stepdaughter," asked an enraged Rob.
In a distant voice, the stepfather answered, "She has just entered Fairy Land. She is drawing nearer and is not alone."
"If she's not alone," Rob thought, "then who could be with her."
The stepfather, who had inadvertantly read Rob's mind answered in a wispy voice, "She is accompanied by a powerful prince whom she met early in her travels."
"Well," said Rob, "I had better not take any chances. I need to get her alone to steal her powers. WIZARD!!"
The wizard appeared ina cloud of thick smoke. "Yes, my liege," he answered. "Use your magic to send the prince to a far off land," said Rob.
"But, master, you know I can't do that. He is also wearing a magic necklace that blocks my magic, but I do believe that I may be able to capture him. He is not a fairy, and thus cannot comprehend the powers of his necklace. If he cannot use the powers, I can abduct him."
"Enough babbling," cried Rob, "Just do it!!"
"Here goes nothing," said the wizard, waving his wand overhead.
"How far away is Rob's tower anyway," asked the prince.
"Not too far," replied the princess. She turned her head to look at the prince, but he was gone!!!
Brandon Sharp 05-01-95
Meanwhile back at Rob's castle, the wizard was looking through his book and realised that he could take the medallion away from the prince with the help of the medallion that contained the fairy queens powers.
Ken Traub 05-02-95
So, he went to work. He held the medallion high in the air and waved his wand. Magically, the necklace floated off of the prince's neck and, almost mangetically attached itself to the medallion in the wizard's hand. The prince, who was chained to a wall, was struggling to get free.
"You had better not harm her," exclaimed the prince loudly.
"Oh, don't worry," said the wizard slyly, "I won't. At least not much!"
This infuriated the prince and he tried even harder to free himself. The wizard walked off with the necklace and medallion, chuckling to himself about how that was like taking candy from a baby.
The princess was still confused about what had happened. "Where had the prince disappeared to," she thought. She decided to stop and look for him down below. So, she swooped down towards the ground. She saw a small village and decided to stop and see if the prince was there...
Brandon Sharp 05-02-95
She used her fairy powers to shrink down to the size of the villagers and explored the village. No one there had any idea what the princess was talking about. She left the village and continued in the direction of the castle. She could see the castle from here, but she could also see the dreaded forrest of....
Ken Traub 05-03-95
The forest of the Dreaded Druids. The druids were known to capture anyone that entered their territory. The princess would have to find a way to go through the forest to find both her stepfather and the prince. She flew towards the dark expanse of forest as fast as she could.
She twisted and turned among the maze of trees. Before she could stop, a net had swooped down upon her. The druids had caught her. They took her back to their village.
"We will cook her when the sun sets," said the druid leader.
"Oh, no," thought the girl in horror, "I have to find a way to escape before that happens, or I'll be druid kibble."
Brandon Sharp 05-16-95
The princess (who's name was Julie) was mortified at the thought of becoming food for the druids. They were leading her away to the cooking pot, and she was terrified, when she felt something cold and clammy on her neck. She looked down and realized it was her necklace! The necklace began to glow a strange shade of crimson, and in a second she found herself with the prince (who's name was Darren.) The wizard was about to turn Darren into a frog...
Julie Busby 10-18-96
When she heard a voice off in the distance. "Use the love you have for the world, my dear, or you will never make it." It took the princess a little while before she realized whose voice it was, but she soon knew, it was her mothers. She remembered that the key to being a good fairy is to use the love for people that you have. She soon began to think about her prince, and her parents. About how her stepfather had gone to search for her. She thought, maybe he isn't so evil. Her fairy powers soon kicked in...
