~ Sequel to Mystery ~
What happens when the pressure to be a perfect princess gets to be to much for Scarlett to handle. Will she say and pretend that everything is fine. Or will she...... Read to find out what Scarlett the Daughter of Scar and Ma...
Prowling down the streets of the Isle in my lioness form gave me a sense of freedom, I haven't felt like this since the last time I was in my animal form; my other half when I choose to be good. Turning back into my human form I stopped in front of Lady Tremaine's Curl Up & Dye,stepping inside completely ignoring the Closed until midnight sign. Walking in I could hear music playing and a young girl dancing/sweeping up all the hair on the flour in the middle of the very colorful room. The little girl was Dizzy, daughter of Drizella. One of the only people on this Island that I was nice to; I mean who could not be nice to this little girl. "Scarlett!" Dizzy screeched as soon as she saw me, running up and throwing her arms around my waist ina hug. "Is Evie back with you?" She asked smiling up at me hopefully.
"Oh, no." I answered her watching as her hopeful smile dropped as she pulled away. "This place looks good," I told her as a walked around a bit. "So what's the deal, had your grandmother given you any customers?"
"Just a little witch here and there. It's mostly just scrubbing, scouring and sweeping. Lots and lots of sweeping." Dizzy told me reminding me a lot of what Tremaine s known for.
"Sounds like the old Cinderella treatment." I told her.
"Yeah. She went from wicked stepmother to wicked grandmother."
"That's not much of a switch," I informed the poorly treated girl but I mean this kind of treatment is normal for us kids here the Isle. "But, hey Dizzy, you used to do Evie right?" I questioned Dizzy remembering something Evie told me.
Dizzy smiled up at me real happy and proud of herself, "Yeah, I thought of the little braids."
'Good', "Do you have any ideas for me?" I smirked.
She walked over to my hair and examined it slowly. "The washed out blond? The best of no world. And what happened to your white streak, I mean you don't even look like the daughter of scar anymore." Dizzy then pulled me over and shoved my down into a chair as she examined my nails. " Ugh, what is this? Bored to death pink. And what happened to the claws!?" She spun the chair around. "How far can I go?"
"The works. Make me me again but worse." I told her smirking.
"Yay!" Dizzy cheered. She walked over to a table and grabbed a big pair of scissors and snipped them twice before turning towards me as my eyes widened.

A couple of hours later and Dizzy was finished so I stood up from the chair and walked over to the mirror and saw myself. "There I am!"

I turned around back towards Dizzy and handed her some money. "For you kid."
"For me?" She asked shocked.
"Yeah, you earned it." I told her. Dizzy giggled and walked over the cash register but before she could put it in, the one person I was hoping to never see again. Now there is probably a huge list of people that you would think would be on that list but the person who walked through that door was; Harry, son of Captain Hook. My ex-boyfriend.
"Fork it over, you little runt." He demanded Dizzy in his thick accent that I used to love hearing.
Just as Dizzy was about to hand over the money I stood in front of her. "Not so fast Hook." I told him closing the cash register as he looked at me with wide eyes. "Still running errands for Uma or is she finally letting you keep what you steal?" I asked him in a cold voice.
Harry froze for a second looking at me with sad eyes but the sadness was gone before you could fully register they were there and the only reason I did see it was there because of how close I used to be with Harry. "Well, well, well. What a nice surprise. My feisty kitty, still got your sassy attitude I see." Harry replied, walking closer to me.
"Don't call me that!" I growled feeling my eyes glow green.
Sadness flashed in his eyes again before he replied cockily, "What don't like being called being my kitty anymore now that you got the king of Boradon now?" He asked me trying to get under my skin but I wouldn't let him.
"Tell Uma back and I'm taking back my old territory. Because I would love to watch the fish try and fight the lion." I told him.
Harry ran his hook through my hair, "I could hurt you."
'You already did.' I wanted to reply but instead I said, "Not without her permission I bet." I mockingly told him knowing he wouldn't do anything without Uma's permission it was the main thing I hated about him when we were dating. Harry looked down at me for a few more seconds before smirking and walking out but not before knocking some stuff off of the counter and onto the floor. I gave him a bored look but he just bowed and left.
"Great, more sweeping." Dizzy said, sarcastically.
