Beyond beauty and imagination we follow the lives of young Gretel and her brother Hans, as her only daughter relives their past through a forgotten diary. 

A story of the love and connection between brother and sister, they have only each other within a world filled with deceit and those who wish to invoke revenge for their people’s history…, and those who want to discover the secrets of the powers they possess.

Gretel by watdoiread

"Whatever your plan is, we did what you asked. Now you have to keep your promise and find our father." "Of course, to reunite your family so you can live happily ever after... You were left alone in the woods. You deserve better than a father who'd abandon you." ~~ "You and your brother have impressed me. You aren't the first boy or girl that I've sent into that sticky, sweet house... But you are the first to emerge. And as a reward, I've decided to invite the two of you to live with me, here." "You mean, that we get to live in a castle?" "Yes! You would have your own rooms of course, personal carriages, valets, too. All of your dreams could come true..." "Yes!" "No!" ~~ "Hansel please, listen to reason! She is called the Evil Queen for a reason!" "She can't be so bad if she has offered us a home, Gretel." "But she's the reason our father is gone!" ~~ "You're not my sister anymore... You betrayed me, and I'm royalty now. Get out of my sight!" "It is you who has betrayed me Hansel... and I will never forgive you for this." ~~ We all know the story of Hansel and Gretel: how the two kids were sent into the witch's candy cabin by their stepparents and escaped by tricking the witch into her own oven. But maybe the story is not quite as you think... In a land where magic trumps all and most will do anything to have a piece of it, should Gretel really be surprised when the idea of magic and castles and luxury lures her brother into abandoning her for the Evil Queen? In the throws of a brothers betrayal, magics price, and her sudden shift from beloved daughter to orphan, what is Gretel to do? Will she be able to handle it all and go through life alone? Read to find out. *An ouat fanfic about what could have happened if Hansel accepted the Evil Queens offer* Top Ratings! 8th in hanselandgretel

Gretel by PumpkinSprite3

You've heard the story of Hansel and Gretel before, but never like this. When Hansel and Gretel are abandoned in the woods, they think they won't survive-that is until they come upon a mysterious Raven that leads them to safety. They think they are out of the woods, but in reality, their troubles are just getting started. Once led to a beach, both twins are quickly devoured by a massive fish. Inside the creature, they come upon a house and the lady who lives there. Unfortunately for them, she is a witch and she quickly captures both the children. She locks Hansel away and forces Gretel to become her apprentice. Can these young children escape? Will Gretel be able to cope with the training she is forced to endure? Only time will tell.

Europa by nilan10

In order to embark on a mission to discover alien life on the icy moon of Jupiter Maria must leave her life on Earth behind, including her father and her seven-year-old son Diego. She thought the hardest part of the mission would be saying goodbye, but little does she know what awaits her and her crew on Europa, an environment that has never been explored from the surface until this mission. Perhaps alien life was never meant to be explored by humans... Will she fulfill her promise to her father and son to make it home alive, or will she fail to make good on that promise like her mother did when she was a little girl? Note: This story was written during a challenge to write an entire book in one week! I vlogged the whole process on my YouTube channel (Patrick Procrastinates Writing), my Instagram (@memesforwriters), and my TikTok (@memes4writers). Be sure to check those out if you want a behind the scenes on my writing process behind this project! I will continue to work on Europa, but I will not update this version as it shows what I was able to accomplish in the seven days of the challenge. Please let me know what you think (don't be afraid to be mean).

Gabriel is the heir to Montes De Alba inc, a company involved in the production of food and food-related products. Rebecca cant handle giving birth to the twins and dies a few days later.

The next year, Helena receives news that her brother, Adrian, and his wife Paulina died in a car accident, that leaves their only child, 2, year-old Adrianna with mild injuries.

Carlos and Helena bid their time, as they learn about Montes De Alba inc. When the twins, turn 6 years, Helena and Carlos, start planning to actualize their plans to kill Gabriel. Helena however decides to get pregnant before killing her husband. She manages to convince Carlos to delay their plans for killing Gabriel. Gabriel is overjoyed and Carlos is furious, about the pregnancy. When Helena is four months pregnant, she and Carlos kill Gabriel. Helena gives birth 5 months later, to a daughter. To reduce suspicion they wait for some time. During a trip to an isolated forest resort, they leave the twins in the middle of the forest, and they are found by Armando and Luisa, a couple who lives in a nearby small town. Hernan and Gabriela are taken in by Armando, Luisa, and their family.

The Third Hunter by ShortyJs

Everyone knows the story of Hansel and Gretel. They were two little kids who found a witch's candy house and were caught eating it. The two children almost got burned alive, but made it out by burning the witch instead and lived happily ever after. Well, this isn't that story. Hansel and Gretel did indeed find a witches house, were almost burned alive and killed a witch, but there was one very different addition to the story. Their little sister named Scarlet joined them on their adventure.
