Grimm's Fairy Tales. We all know them, but do we know the truth of them? Who were all the fantastical people and creatures told of in the stories? How did such common folk always get their way? Did all these tales really end Happily Ever After?

This is a short story I wrote for my English class while practicing switching from third to first person and I thought I'd share it. It is my original work completely, except of course for the original tale by the Grimm Brothers. Please do not steal the idea or the work, if you inspired, let me know and we can talk.

Gretel never had much of an interest in magic, not really. The inn she runs just happens to be made out of candy. But that design choice was made by the home's previous occupant, the witch Agatha, who had tried to steal the youthful bodies of Gretel and her brother Hansel. The witch had misused her magic though, and as punishment the house took away her human form and trapped her inside of a gingerbread one. Gretel has big dreams though. She wants to expand their little cottage into the finest set of lodgings in all of Germany. Money is an issue. As are the tricks Agatha plays against on the customers, always trying to worm her way back into a human form. The money problem could be solved by a wealthy investor, such as her neighbor Thomas, but that man only has one thing on this mind. And then the war came. Across the border the French have overthrown their King and established something called a Republic. German troops march west to avenge the death of their Emperor's brother-in-law and Hansel has marched with them. What's more the magic in the house is fading. The witch Agatha says it needs a new Master to make new rules and new spells, or else it will melt away into nothing. But is Gretel up to the task?
