"There's something else that you should know." Lachlan says as he looks away from me.
"What, what is it,tell me." I touch his shoulder to turn him around so that I can see his face.
"Uh, we call her the Evil Queen because of how she hunts people down." He still won't look me in the eye. "She uses fairy tales."
"What do you mean?"
"Like,you know how Cinderella ends."
"Yeah."
"Well, if she's hunting someone down with a step mom,then she'll use her magic to make the step mom evil,like in the story, but she'll change the ending. Instead of Cinderella going to the ball and living happily ever after,she'll make the step mom kill everyone in the family, then take all their powers and give it to the Evil Queen. After that, she'll kill the innocent step mom her self."
My eyes widen.
"What fairy tale is she using against my family?"
"Hansel and Gretel." Of course a twin brother and sister!
"Ok,but why won't you look me in the eye?"
"Because,I'm your version of the gingerbread house."
