Morning - Dark Star Pharmacy

Henry was reading a comic book, "Wolverine vs Hulk". Daniella was nearby, flipping some magazines

A girl walked closer, "Whatcha reading?"

"The Hulk versus Wolverine" Henry answered

"Nothing" Daniella answered nodding at Henry"Just making time for him to finish"

"I'm Ava" The girl told them "I think I've seen you around school. You're in Miss Blanchard's class, right?"

Daniella and Henry smiled, nodding.

A boy walked closer, "Almost ready, Ava?"

"This is my brother Nicholas" Ava told them

"Hi" Nicholas told them. Daniella and Henry smiled "Come on, lets go"

Ava looked at Henry and Daniella "You wanna come hang out?"

Daniella shrugged

"Sure" Henry answered

They picked up their backpacks, following after Nicholas and Ava. Nicholas prepared to pull the handle of the door to leave

The pharmacy's owner, Mr. Clark, pushed the door close, sneezing "Where the hell do you think you're going?" He pointed at Henry "Open up your bag"

"What?" Henry asked

"Don't think I didn't see you rob me" Clark told him. He looked at Daniella, "You too, girl" Ava and Nicholas exchanged a glance "Open your bags"

"But, we didn't take anything" Daniella told him in confusion

Clark opened their bags to find some chocolate bars "And liars, too"

Henry turned to Ava "That's why you were talking to us. So your brother could put that stuff in there"

"Henry" Clark scolded "Daniella. I'm shocked" He turned to Ava and Nicholas "And you two, just who do you think you are?"

Flashback

Enchanted Forest

Day - Woods

A woodcutter chopped down a tree for his son and daughter, Hansel and Gretel. "A fine specimen, the wood it provides will keep our family's hearth for warm this winter"

"Can't I have an axe?" Gretel asked

"Huh?" the Woodcutter asked

"You did say you wanted me here so I could help" Gretel pointed out

"That I did" the Woodcutter agreed "So, here's your task: take the cart, go fill it with kindling. The drier, the better""

"Okay" Gretel told him, walking away

"And, have your brother accompany you" the Woodcutter told her

"Okay" Gretel replied, grabbing the cart, looking at Hansel "Come on"
