       I am dreading this one haha buuuuut, it should be fun. xD

      Anna and Elsa are next.

       Enjoy.

      Giselle sat in her cottage and stared out the window dreamily. She longed for an adventure and love. "We got them," Pip announced, causing her to turn to him with a smile. All her animal friends had been helping her find things to make up her perfect prince. They gave her sapphires for eyes and a caterpillar for a mouth.

        Giselle stared at it and sighed sadly. How she wished he was real. "What's wrong sweetheart," Pip asked as he scurried up her arm and sat on her shoulder.

       She sighed and looked at him sadly. "I just wish," she paused and then began singing.

        Edward was hunting trolls when he heard a beautiful voice ringing through the air. "I must find the maiden who belongs to that voice," he announced as he steered his horse away from Nathaniel and the troll and went in search of the owner of that voice.

       Nathaniel sighed and told the troll to beat Edward there. If Edward found the owner of that voice, Narissa would kill him. The troll sprinted past Edward and reached Giselle's cottage. Giselle spotted the troll and screamed. She tried to scurry away from it, but it picked her up and brought her to his mouth.

      "Unhand her you vile creature," Edward yelled as he threw his sword at the troll's stomach. The troll groaned and dropped Giselle, who luckily fell right into Edward's arms. "Are you okay Milady," he asked her as they gazed into each other's eyes.

       Giselle nodded shyly and then introduced herself to Edward. "Giselle! We shall be married in the morning," he announced as they rode off into the sunset.

         Giselle and her animal friends worked to get her ready for her wedding. When she arrived at Edward's castle, she was stopped by an old woman. "Come with me dear, I have a magical wishing well. When you wish in it, it makes all your dreams come true," the woman said happily.

       Giselle perked up at this and looked into the well to make her wish. The old woman smiled and pushed Giselle down into the well. Giselle fell for some time and finally landed hard. She squinted at the bright light that was shining through some holes above her. She stared at her skin and then lifted a tendril of her hair and studied it.  "What happened," she asked herself.

       She pushed the lid above her and climbed out of the manhole. The street was busy and full of people and cars. A car just missed her as she hopped out of the street. Giselle had no idea what the cars were, but she was sure she needed to stay away from them.

        As she came to a dark alley, the rain began to fall. Giselle looked around for refuge, but she couldn't find any. There were no trees around or tiny cottages, just tall darkened buildings. She began to lose hope, a feeling that she definitely didn't understand.

        She suddenly spotted a billboard with a palace on it. Joy welled up inside of her as she climbed up to the doors of the palace and banged on them.

        Robert stared at the woman on the billboard and debated on helping her, however his daughter made the choice for him when she jumped from the car and ran towards the billboard. Robert called to his daughter, which startled Giselle, causing her to fall onto him. Robert stood up and helped her up then groaned from the shooting pain in his arm. "Are you alright," he snapped at her.

       Giselle pouted and shook her head. "I am so very lost and in this strange land. Nobody has been nice to me," she said sadly.

       Robert snorted then muttered, "Welcome to New York."
