"Without a doubt, my twin and I are hexed. The gods don't want us to escape. They want us to meet our doom, and there's no denying it as we continue to travel into the dreaded night that doesn't offer us any chance at life."
 
The story of Hansel and Gretel is one that has roamed our society since its inception in the early 18000s. From the imaginations of Jacob and Wilhelm, the Brothers Grimm was born, and with it, a plethora of eerie children's tales told in ever corner of medieval Europe.

This version of the siblings' tale, however, will tell you about a fair pair of twins and the darkness which looms over their town. Hideous creatures terrorize the region, and no one has ever faced the Witches and lived to tell about it. Because everyone says the Witches are unbeatable.

I say we find out, shall we?

Shrek: Once Upon A True Love's Kiss [Book 1] by TashaFarthing

We all have those weird dreams where we fight dragons, dream of a 'happily ever after'...or in my cousin Alice's case; make friends with a unicorn that literally poops edible rainbow candy. Alice and I, along with our friend Zero, help my aunt and uncle clear out their basement during spring break while they went away for their wedding anniversary. It all started when I ever so gracefully (but accidentally) tripped over a cupboard box (which in my defence, I never knew was there) with the words: 'Fragile - DO NOT TOUCH', written in black marker all over the box. While Alice and I were arguing, Zero tried to grab our attention. When he finally did, we were surprised to see him being sucked into a freakin' green swirling portal! Turns out, inside the box I tripped over had a crystal ball rolled out of it, and glowed a bright green. That was when we realised that that crystal ball, was the reason why a portal appeared and was trying to pull us in. And of course...I got separated from them, didn't I? Would you believe me if I told you we entered the world of our favourite movie when we were kids? You know...the Dreamworks movie, Shrek? The one with the fairy tale and Disney characters in? Yep, that's the one! Oh, sorry! I almost forgot to introduce myself: My name's Willow, and this is the story of our journey in the world of Shrek - creating bonds with Shrek himself, Fiona, Donkey and the gang...heck, even Dragon, too! What could possibly go wrong?

NOTE: This is completed but unedited. It will be going through major changes soon including with plot and character changes. Once it is all changed, a notice of Completion will be added! Thanks! Sins and Secrets Book 1: "How do you think all your little Alpha buddies will feel," he hissed, his hot, rancid breath whispering across the back of my neck causing my stomach to sink, "When they discover the dark secret you've been hiding? Do you think they'll respect you still? Do you think that little mate of yours will still want you?" At the thought of Tiberius, my wolf went crazy. My body jerked at the restrained that held me down, the smell of burning flesh filling the room as the silver began to cut into my wrists. "Go to hell." We snapped as my whole body began to go numb. "Oh can't you see, my sweet little bird," he came closer, his lips practically pressed against the skin on my cheek, "You're already there." --------------------------------------------------------------------- My name is Cara Eldoran. I am one of two Alpha's within my pack. Two years ago, I stood frozen to the ground and watched as someone I loved killed my older brother in front of me. There were no screams or tears. My whole body had gone into shock, and I was left to watch the horrors unfold in front of me. But I will lose no one else. Alpha's are going missing. They are being taken from their homes in the middle of the night and are never seen again. Sometimes I wish that being taken was my biggest problem. That all I had to worry about was making sure my windows were locked at night and that I was safe in the arms of my mate, but there is much more at stake then most realize. I vowed revenge for my brother the day he died, and I will stop at nothing to get it. Not even the dark secrets that could destroy me will stop my lust for vengeance. ---------------------------------------------------------------------

The Ginger I fell in Love with

21 parts Complete

So, for those that are Harry Potter fans I bring you this book, but this is a Fred Weasley love story. I don't own any of the original Harry Potter Characters. I am also not going to follow the book exactly with how certain things happened. Hope you enjoy it. I sat in the windowsill behind a statue looking at the Hogwarts grounds, watching all the different students running about. I was pulled out of my daydream when two gingers came running down the corridor making a lot of noise. "Where are we going to hide Georgie?" "Behind the statue Freddie." "Before I could think to move the twins were on top of me. They looked just as shocked as I was. And that's how I became friends with the Weasley Twins. I am Rosalie Holmes. Rose for short. I am a half blood witch. My dad is a muggle and my mum is a witch. I live with my dad and have never met my mom. I am in they I become good friends with the Weasley twins. I mean what could go wrong?
