Ella Stiltskin-Winter (1st book)

The Black Witch

  Mirror, Mirror on the wall. Who Is The Fairest of them all?

Amethyst, looked directly at the mirror. She thought about Jack, and what had happened last night in the forest. Suddenly, a vision of Jack's past, appeared on her mirror.

"King Arian." Amethyst watched as Jack walked up to the king. "My son, you must stop Queen Amethyst's plan."  King Arian had said. "You must, or we will all be dead."

Anger started to escape Amethyst, but she held the anger in. "Son, I promise you, I will kill her daughter, if she succeeds." She watched as Jack started to tremble, she could see the hurt in his eyes. But yet, she hated him. Jack nodded, and his father smiled. She thought is it possible to love and hate someone at the same time?

She had to protect Ella, for her own benefit, the cost, of her life is her daughter's heart.

Ella had woken up, and started to venture out into the forest. But something stopped her. She couldn't venture, out any further.

She had turned around, to face her mother. Queen Amethyst.

"Darling, I need to send you somewhere safe." She said. Ella tensed up. Her mother, wasn't normal, well not anymore. Her mother wore a black cloak, and a black dress, to hide her from the light. Her mother was a few feet behind her.

Then in a blink of an eye, she stood in front of her. Ella backed up. "Follow me, and take my hand." Queen
Amethyst, held out her hand.

She did as she was told, Ella took her mother's hand. She had brought her to a tower. A tall tower.

"This is where you will stay, until the world become's a safer place, my dearest, Ella." She kissed her forehead and ran down the side of the tower.

The tower was mostly empty, except for a few books, a bed and a bathroom. Since Ella had nothing better to do, she picked up a book, of the book shelf.

It was called, The History Behind The Dark One. The Dark One? Ella has heard of that name before. Her mother told her pacifically not to speak of it.

So of course she started to read it. The dark one defined as a source of Evil Matter, attached to a human being. Once the human, has been attached to the the soul, there is no other way, to get rid of it, unless the person was to be killed. If the previous dark one, was killed, then the dark matter will find it's way, to a soul who seeks it.

Then she read. There was once an powerful wizard who, could heal the wounds of people, his name was Merlin. The most powerful sourer in his time, until he created The Dark One, by accident. He created the Excalibur.

A long time ago, Merlin had fallen for a young women named, Nimue. Since Merlin was, immortal, and she was not, he had to get rid of his magic, so he used the flame of promeetheus to transform the holy grail into a sword. The sword which is called Excalibur.

However, the love of his life had somehow gotten the power of immortality. Nimue had also been, given magic by drinking out of the Holy Grail.

Then, Nimue decided to protect her magic, so now, she basically tore apart the sword, and one had been the dagger, which control's the dark one, and the other half remains inside the stone.
