Princes are Evil:
Chapters: 18
Quality: Not so good, but it's cute.
Summary: A prince gets cursed with no emotions. A girl breaks the curse unintentionally.
Story at a Glance: The unicorn was walking away from me. It paused a moment and looked at me. Did it want me to follow it?
There comes a time in one's life where one has to make an extremely difficult decision. No, this was not that time. Given the choice between following a unicorn or keeping company with an evil, beady-eyed rabbit, I chose the former. It wasn't a hard choice at all. I just should've chosen the latter, because where did that stupid unicorn lead me?
Back to the Fairy Town.
Unicorns were officially marked as evil from that point on.
Or So The Story Goes...:
Chapters: 45 + Prologue and Epilogue
Quality: Best so far.
Little info on it: This is an angsty, dark, and dramatic fic. It also does have some humor, but not as much as PAE or RP. This one may be written the best out of all my stories thus far. I'm not exactly certain, though.
Summary: Everyone knows the story of Cinderella... How she was forced to do all the chores and lost her title because of her evil step-family, but ended up going to a ball and falling in love with the prince with the help of a fairy godmother? Well, so does my younger sister, Cindy...er, Cinderella. Step-sister, might I add. And she'll stop at nothing to make it a reality.
Story at a glance: “I want to marry a prince no matter what.” She laughed. “My mother died when I was born. Papa left me to decide my own name. So, I decided that Cinderella most fit me, and look what happened. I got a stepmother and stepsisters! My stepmother is cold and selfish, and my stepsisters are ugly and stupid. What more could I ask for? All I need now is a fairy godmother and a ball. Then Prince Alexander will fall in love with me, and we’ll live happily ever after.”
“In the story Cinderella’s father died,” I told her. “And she was forced to become a maid.”
Cindy yawned, as if she thought my objections were boring. “My dear Drusilla,” she said, giving me an evil grin, “why would I have to sully my hands when I heard from Stacey that you are such a good maid? I never much liked that part of the story, personally.” She looked down at her fingernails. “But if somebody must play that part, perhaps it could be you. Don’t you spend most of your time outdoors anyway? Not very ladylike, I assure you.” Finally, she met my eyes again. “And as for papa, who’s to say that he isn’t going to die? It seems to me that fighting in a war could very well be—how should I put it?—tragic.”
Kiss of Twilight: Prelude to an Evening
Chapters: 36 + Interlude
Summary: When I think back on the tale of Sleeping Beauty, I don't remember her having to go on a quest. Was she raised by her aunt and uncle? No, she wasn't. And her prince charming? He was charming, wasn't he? Her only obstacle was a spinning wheel. I have jealous princesses, a deformity, diseases, a hostile family, and a witch to deal with in addition to the spinning wheel. And my charming prince? I think he'll let me sleep for an eternity. What happened to the simple fairy tale?
Little info on it: First part of two. This story revolves around Cinderella's daughter, Helena. The characters from OSTSG are in it, as well as a slew of new characters. I was originally going to put my favorite part as the preview, but now I'll have one of the final chapters instead.
Story at a glance: Her attention stayed on me. "You've been contaminated by her, haven't you?" she asked, her hand reaching out and tucking some hair behind my ear. It was a motherly gesture, but it made me feel ill. "She raised you well, I'm sure. She's probably taught you morals. I never much cared for morals. Your sister will become the most beloved in the lands. You will be queen of Exultia: by choice or force."
"You can't do this," I said, glaring at her.
"Can't I? You seem to forget who is queen of Exultia. I'm your mother, not her."
One of the guards grabbed me and began to lead me away.
"Oh, and Helena?"
I turned, weary.
"Happy Birthday, darling."
Works in Progress:
Kiss of Twilight: In the Absence of Light
Posted: Chapter 2
Chapters left: Many
Little info on it: Second half of Kiss of Twilight. This story centers more on Helena's quest to become the most beloved in the lands while facing many obstacles: the most prevalent being her mother. There will be more character development in this story (because Helena was still a bit of a child in the last one), romance, and a few deaths.
The Sparrow and the Wolf
Posted: Prologue
Chapters left: Not sure
Little info on it: Melina's life seems to be shrouded in darkness. Who is she, really? Why is she so powerful? In truth, she's not even mortal anymore. Long ago, she was approached by a boy (Ciel) and coerced into a quest along with the boy's brother and her cousin. This is the story of the boy's brother: Lycan. It really will shed some light on Melina's past. If you take the tales of Beauty and the Beast, Little Red Riding Hood, and something completely different, then shove them in a blender without the lid, the mess around the room would be this story...sort of. That's a strange analogy, isn't it?
The Catalyst: (temporarily on hold)
Posted: Chapter 8
Chapters left: ...hard to say. I've still got to finish writing this one.
Little info on it: My somewhat serious story. My first story for Fictionpress. sniffles It's my baaaaaby. There's supposed to be a more serious tone in this... Because it's my first story, the quality starts off horribly. It gets better with time, I think.
Summary: Girl finds out she's this 'catalyst'. Girl is supposed to be killed. However, the guy who was supposed to kill her gets an unexpected attack of conscience.
Story at a Glance: She grunted from the impact. "Put me down!" She angrily pounded on his back. "Are you listening to me? If you don't, I'll kick you! All I want is answers."
"You'll get them when we start going again," he said in his steely voice.
"No," she protested weakly. "Then you'll just ignore me."
He stopped walking to the passenger's side. "Ignore you? Hell, I'd probably never ignore you. You're the only reason I exist in this world."
"What do you mean?" she asked, pushing herself up from his back to get a look at his face.
Royal Predicament: (also temporarily on hold)
Posted: Chapter 7
Chapters left: I'd like to say that there'll be more chapters in this than the first book. I think I'm right, too.
Little info on it: Rhian returns in this Epic novel. Epic. Ha. That's a fun word. Maybe it's not Epic, but Epic was sure fun to write. Not only does she return, but so do the rest of everyone's favorite characters: Gavin, Leah, Ash, Lana, It. Also, cameo appearances (o.O)by: Ahanu (DEMON!!), Dani, Brad, Mistrel, the strange old guy, and a few more. The ending's going to have a MAJOR twist. Be forewarned.
Summary: The extremely hot prince and marriage looming in the distance. Happily Ever After? Since when did that exist in Rhian's vocabulary. Now she has to become queen of Reise. Easy task? No way! Not with QC critiquing her every move and conspirators out to destroy her... Happily Ever After just took on a new meaning...
Future Projects? (a.k.a. stories I'll write when I get around to it...)
Thorns of a Tulip: Lenne has never exactly been little miss act-all-feminine-and-let-the-men-handle-the-dirty-work. So, when her best friend leaves her alone, what does she do? She joins a crew of pirates who aren't exactly what they seem.
Rainy Day: When Lynn began writing a story about elves, and how they could possibly be evil, she never imagined that it would cause her world to intermingle with the very world she had created. Then again, she never imagined the story writing itself, either... (title probably subject to change)
Seemingly Innocent: With crime at a dangerously slow pace, Fox finds himself wishing for someone with enough genius to not get caught at the scene of the crime. Well, he got what he wished for. Only, will he be able to catch her?
Liberation of a Lost Soul: Ever since the day he was created, Nick has been cold, unemotional. Could one girl save him? Or would he lose his humanity forever? Nick/Mary mini-story
No Protection Please!!: Quinn had a normal life. She lived with her mom and annoying younger brother, spending her time eating cheese puffs and mocking Dr. Phil. That was, until Kale Montgomery showed up on her doorstep one day. Now? She's the target of about a dozen terrorists who all want her and this 'secret code' she supposedly knows. Not to mention she's being protected by a gun-happy, no-nonsense guy who just happens to be extremely hot. Somehow the people on the Dr. Phil show seem normal now...
Mirror Image:One wishes for adventure. The other wants stability. They are entirely different, like two sides of a coin, but they look exactly the same. By chance, they meet and switch places. (The Prince and the Pauper with a twist)
Cindy has won Judge's Pick Best Villain at Some Kind of Wonderful. Thanks for all the support! Although...I don't think Cindy'd be too happy if she knew.
