They all say that unicorns are made of sweet and cute things but they don't know or haven't visited the other side.

Some time ago, no matter how long, two children, Annabelle and Maria set out into a forest. Now before I proceed into the story you must know, this forest was well lit; safe, meaning no dangerous creatures and beautiful. Anyway Annabelle and Maria set out into a perfectly safe forest and along the way they stopped and found a lovely patch of flowers. As young girls do when they come across a beautiful patch of flower, they decided to pick them to take home to their mother.

One thing that they didn't know about this forest was that it was filled with unicorns. Back then they thought seeing a unicorn was good luck and that if you got to touch one then you would be gifted for your whole life. Anyway they thought that they might be lucky enough to see a unicorn, well they got half of it right, the part about seeing the unicorn I mean.

So they came across a beautiful white unicorn, 'Annabelle! Look!' gasped Maria excitedly pointing at the beautiful creature that laid in front of them. Together they slowly walked out to the unicorn but Annabelle stopped half way, the brilliant beast's eyes turned fiery red and what were the hooves of it turned into sharp talons. 'Maria! Turn back now! Or in other words RUN!' But Maria, being Maria was much more stupid than her older sister, 'Wait a second Annabelle, I might be able to pat him!' By that time Annabelle was really worried for her sister but if her sister couldn't listen than how could she help her if there was any trouble.

As quick as a flash the beast raised its legs and scratched poor Maria. But the scratch was no ordinary scratch, it had lots and lots of poison in it, anyway Annabelle rushed to her sister's side muttering under her breath. When they got back to the village Annabelle ran to her mama and told her of the danger in the forest. By the time they got back to Maria the doctors were examining her, and thy said the dreaded news, 'Maria is dead'

And that is the story of Maria and Annabelle and that beast that still roams the forest waiting for his next victim. Annabelle only died a year later due to mental illness, but I got this story out just before then. Be warned: never go into a forest that unicorn are in
