Cerise Hood POV

Chapter 12: Legacy Outfit

(With chapter 8 Daring POV)

It was yet another legacy class, all about outfits and image, how to put yourself out there for the big day. Sometimes Cerise wondered if these classes were just for the rich people, I mean for the average people like herself, they can't afford to make a big beautiful gown just for a night. And it's a night that you walk up stage to sign your sole to a predetermined story, Cerise just might not feel like dressing up for that.

After Maid Marian explained the difference between casual wear party wear and formal wear, she instructed the students to try and imagine and sketch out their dream outfit for Legacy Day.

Earlier that weekend Cerise Mom had given her a present when she visited home. It was her mom's Legacy day outfit, and it's now going to be hers. It looked great, and cerise believe nothing will make it shout 'little red riding hood' more than it does now, so there was no need to change it. Cerise then proceeded to sketch that same Long cape and dress combo on the pice of paper. Well, maybe she can catch some sleep in this class.

"If your stuck with ideas, don't be afraid to look into the other characters in your story for inspiration." Cerise woke up to Maid Marian voice. "For example picking Colours from your partner, and incorporating them as accent colours in your design" she glanced down to her picture 'include other characters...' she thought.

--Lunch break--
"Cedar! You know of any fabric store around?" Cerise asked

"Ooh ooh!" Cedar lighted up. "You want to modify your legacy day outfit! Add an element of other characters in the story!"

Yes! A fur trim around the hood! Cerise smiled, "Nothing gets pass you dose it?"

"I want to try my hands at making my own costume, and I know who can help us!" Cedar said happily "Ashlynn!"

"Ashlynn? The Royal?"

"Yeah she's making her own costume! And she's planning to show me some cloth shops, you should join us!"

'A Royal making her own costume? If you think about it, working hard for nice things is part of her story..' Cerise thought 'but still... a Royal interacting with someone not in that circle is strange as it is.' At that moment when she looked up from her thoughts, she saw, Ashlynn looking towards their table, smiling shyly at..... 'ok, I think I sort of get it now' Cerise thought with a smile of her own.

"Scream!!!!" Fully unprepared, Cerise ducked her head with her hands over her hooded ears. 'What is going on?' She turned to look at where the outburst came from, Daring Charming with a sea of girls, should have known..

--Break--
After Jack Be nimble's class and the tall tale assignment, it became even clearer to Cerise. Come on the initials carved on the tree in the enchanted forest, how did she not see it before.

Cedar did a good job not letting the truth out, and Cerise won't tell either, it's not her business to tell.

When someone's love is so strong that they are willing to brake the rules, it's true and precious. And Cerise firmly believes in that, with all her being.
