Once Upon A Ever After!

Chapter 27: Grimm Brothers!

Real World!
     Marvin, otherwise known as Milton Grimm, was sitting at his desk in his office at the high school. He's the principal and always a very busy man. Then his little brother, George, otherwise known as Giles Grimm, knocked and walked into his big brothers office. George is the vice principal of the high school. George has an office too, right next to Marvin's. "Hey, Marvin. Do you have the fax that's due tomorrow?" George asked and Marvin looked at his stuff. Then he picked up a file and noticed it's the one that his little brother was looking for. "Here it is." Marvin replied as he handed it to him, and George accepted it. "Thanks." George stated as he opened the door. "Make sure you turn it in on time." Marvin stated and George looked at him and laughed. "Don't worry, I will." George reassured as he walked out.

Flashback!
      Milton Grimm was angry. After Raven graduated, she said that she would not fulfill her destiny, and she hasn't yet. He sighed, knowing she won't. He wants her to, he still wants everyone to follow their destinies. Now, no one will follow. Well, for the most part. Milton stood up and started pacing as he thought about. Maybe all he needs to do is to force destiny, he's thought about it before, but he never went through with it. He wishes he would of done it right after graduation. I mean, look at what Raven's choice has caused. Lizzie and Daring are dating. Ashlynn and Hunter are a week away from being married. There's so many other horrible things like those happening too, at least in Milton's eyes. He knew what he had to do.
      Raven and Apple just finished watching Mean Royals, for the billionth time, at Apple's castle. They got up from her bed, and Apple put it up. They walked down the stairs and to the kitchen. "That movie never gets old." Raven stated with a chuckle and Apple laughed. "So true." Apple agreed. "Miss. White. Would you like a something to eat?" A servant asked. "Anything would be fine, my friend and I don't care." Apple replied and he nodded. "I'll notify the cook." The servant stated and he left as Apple turned to Raven. "It seems like you have a nice life here." Raven stated as she looked around and Apple nodded. "Yeah, I love my life, and it's amazing being Queen." Apple replied worn a smile. "You seem like you enjoy it, I figured you would." Raven agreed. "It's just who I am." Apple stated as she and Raven sat down. "Just like it's just like me to not want to follow my destiny." Raven stated. "I'm sad that I don't have a true love, like it seems like everyone else does. But I'm fine, I'm happier then I thought possible without that poison apple and Daring's kiss to wake me up." Apple explained and Raven smiled. "I'm glad." Raven stated and Apple smiled too.
      Then the door open and they saw guards walk in, and then Snow White walked in, and then more guards behind her. A guard closed the door behind her, and Apple smiled to her. "Hello, sweetheart." Snow greeted her daughter. "Hi, mom." Apple greeted. Snow turned to Raven, who got nervous. "Raven Queen, daughter of the Evil Queen, right?" Snow asked with a fake smile. "That's right, Mrs. White." Raven replied. "It's your Majesty, to you." Snow replied as she glared at her, but still had a scary fake smile. Raven frowned and sighed as she put her head down. Apple looked up at her mother. "Mom." Apple stated and Snow looked down at her daughter. "Yes, dear?" Snow asked. "Don't." Apple replied. "What?" Snow asked, acting innocently. "You know what you did. Raven is a dear friend of mine, and I love her dearly. So, please, I'm asking you this as my mother, be nice to her. You're nice to all of my friends, be nice to this one too." Apple stated and Snow just chuckled. "But, dear. She's a rebel, not a royal. Plus, her mom is the person who tried to kill me. She poisoned me, until your father saved me." Snow explained and Apple shook her head as she stood up, to face her mom better. "That was your fault too, you chose to follow your destiny. That means, you chose to be stuck in a sleeping curse until you got saved." Apple explained. "How dare you speak to me like this?" Snow asked her daughter, confused. "Because I am Queen now, this is my castle and my kingdom, and I'm not about to let anyone be mean to my friends around here, not even my own mother." Apple replied as Snow glared at her. "Apple." Snow stated. "Mother." Apple stated as she glared sat her. Snow looked at Raven, and then back at her daughter. "We will talk later." Snow stated and Apple smirked. "Actually no, we won't." Apple stated and Snow shook her head as she walked up the stairs. Apple sat back down and looked at Raven. "Wow. Thanks for that." Raven stated with a small smile and Apple smiled too. "Anything for a friend." Apple stated. They got up and hugged.

Real World!
    It was pouring down rain when Rachel was driving home from work, and it was getting kind if late, but not too late. Her car broke down, and she couldn't fix it, no matter what she tried. She sighed as she grabbed her jacket and slammed the door shut. She put it on and started walked home. "Rachel?" Alison asked from her front porch with her door open. Rachel stopped walking and looked up. "H-hi, Ali." Rachel greeted as she shivered on the cold rain. Alison grabbed her umbrella and opened it as she ran over to her, and made sure the umbrella was over both of them. "What are you doing out here in this weather?" Alison asked. "My car broke down, and I needed to get home." Rachel replied. "Why didn't you call anyone?" Alison asked. "Because my phone died and I lost !y car charged a few weeks ago." Rachel replied and Alison shook her head as she grabbed her hand and led her inside, closing the door behind her. Alison put her umbrella up and took Rachel's jacket, putting that up too. "Go in the guest room, you'll stay there tonight, you know where it is." Alison stated and Rachel sighed. "Ali." Rachel stated. "You can wear any nightgown you want that is in there and choose any clothing you want to wear for tomorrow, and you can return in when you can. There's a charger on the bedside table, you can use it for the night." Alison explained and Rachel smiled at her. "Thank you, for everything." Rachel stated and Alison nodded with a smile. "Anything for my friends." Alison stated as she smiled too. They hugged, no matter how wet Rachel was from the rain, and then Rachel went upstairs.
       "What are you thinking about?" George asked. Marvin looked up and saw his younger brother at the door way of his office. "Yeah, I thought you left already?" Marvin asked as he pushed his eyebrows together. "I did. But midnight rolled around, you still weren't home, and I got worried." George replied and Marvin sighed as he looked down. The only family either one of them has, so they live together, because of how close they are. "Marvin." George stated. "Yeah?" Marvin asked as he looked back up. "Are you okay?" George asked and Marvin nodded. "Of course, I'll be out in a minute." Marvin replied and George nodded. "I'll wait for you in the car." George stated and Marvin nodded. "Okay." Marvin agreed. George walked out and Marvin sighed as he looked back down. The truth is, he's not fine. He's been a high school teacher as long as he remembers, and he remembers when Rachel was here. He hated her. He has certain beliefs, but she broke all of his beliefs, and made all of her classmates follow their beliefs too. He will never forgive her, and he wishes there's something he can do to change it.
