Prologue

Everybody knows the tale of Snow White. A young, beautiful woman enslaved to the evil queen - who happened to be her stepmother - who is then meant to be killed by the queen when the wretched woman asks a mirror who the fairest of them all is. Only Snow White escapes into the forest, leaving a confused hunter behind to wallow in his sadness and despair while she makes friends with seven kind dwarves and the friendly forest animals.

Some say I'm like Snow White. It depends on how you look at it, really. I may have escaped the clutches of the wicked but the hunter never stopped looking for me and when I ran into the forest, there wasn't a hint of a smile or sweet animals to help me along my way. In fact, I'm nothing like Snow White. I still have a twisted mother who itches to get her hands on me, and my prince never arrived.

I wasn't insanely beautiful like Snow White either. She had soft ivory skin with the perfect amount of blush, her doll-like features bestowed a fairy like appearance upon her porcelain self. Midnight black hair remained soft and convoluted. I, on the other hand, was much to narrow with my face. My cheekbones stood out and my eyes were a boring brown, while my hair never seemed to maintain perfection. My body was hardly anything to be jealous over, considering the fact it was covered with scars and imperfections and there were to many to count. I believe the only real connection I had to Snow White was the fact that we were both relatively quiet and shy. At least she got to break out of her shell, while I remained behind my walls.

It was quite a bit humurous to me, how easily someone can intercept a definition to be entirely different than originally meant to be. I mean, I am the most twisted and contorted person out there yet I still get the comments, 'what a lovely girl!'. People can overlook the true problems because of their fear of focusing on the negative. Instead of being realistic, they decide to be optimistic. The human race nowadays are so terrified of being perceived as a 'pessimist' or an 'antagonist' that they decide to completely ignore the flaws that stain our world in order to be seen as someone who is happy and full of life.

Of course, there are plenty of negative people out there who their full intent is to bring everyone down, but that's beside the point. All I'm saying is that the fear of being an awful person blinds people from being realistic. Plenty of bad things have happened in my life, and I've come to accept it. There are horrific events happening right now, and speaking about them won't make you a 'debby downer' or whatever. It just makes you aware of the actions that take place that maybe aren't all that good.

Maybe that was the major fault in Snow White. No matter how positive she acted, she ignored the true reasons why she was living with seven small men. She almost got killed by her own stepmother. But because she acted so happy and gleeful, everyone surpassed the real issues that were involved. Nobody took into account that she got backstabbed by her own flesh and blood, was tracked down and driven out of her own place (let alone the fact she was forced to be a servant).

I used to admire Snow White, for staying so positive. But now, she was just silly and naïve. How could she forget everything that happened to her? How did she just turn a cold shoulder to her life she was kicked out of, all for a prince she didn't even know was coming? Maybe I'm just to much of a realist and can't wrap my mind around the obvious concept of Snow White. While others take Snow White as a brilliant movie that "displays the brightness to all the dark things that happen to us all", I see it as a false account of the real world.

Then again, who said Snow White was real anyways?

Hello my dear friends! Here is the Prologue to my new story, Predators Eye which is part of my One Direction series, The City Series! I will explain the updating schedule in Chapter One. This prologue foreshadows a lot in many, MANY different ways. So pay close attention, besides, you guys know how much I love symbolism.

Elena Vinokourov, the main character in this story, is on the side! I see her as the actress Odette Annable. With every chapter, I will have a picture that either relates to a character, a place, action or outfit (all outfits are either taken from Tumblr, Google or Polyvore. All credit goes to the creators of those images).

Anyways, love you all so much! Enjoy xx

HUGS AND KISSES XOXO
