There once was a princess named Marabelle, who lived in a coastal city called Auroria in The Empire of Aurorans. Everyone loved her. She traveled around the whole country on her horse, sharing her love for her country and its people. But meanwhile, across The Great Adriatic Ocean, were 5 witches who watched her in their big crystal ball. Their names were Georgia, Caraline, Elizabeth, Anes, and the scariest of them all, Ella the Great. They looked like ordinary people. But only they knew of what was to become of Marabelle. . .

The witches sat in a circle and gave a siance to the dead. They waited and waited for a ghost to come. But nothing came. They were just about to give up, when,the clock struck midnight. As soon as it did, the candles flickered and danced on the wall. The room began to fill with mysterious sounds. And, within a moment's time, the room grew dark as it had once been. Everything stopped. All the noise, the lights, gone. The witches cackled cowardly, as if one had played a stupid trick on them. Caraline called, " Who's there?" Ella the Great simply covered her mouth until Caraline could simply breathe no more, and let go. " Could you be any louder? It was just the wind," Ella cried sarcastically. But even the didn't know of what was to happen to them.

Sorry about that. The computer was slow and I kept pressing the button. I will continue the story as soon as I can. Just to tell you, this isn't going to be a boring fairytale with a prince and that stuff. It will be great. Oh, and there will be no romance in this story! That includes no prince. The only romance there will be is that Marabelle loves her horse, Angel. That is All.

As soon as Ella said that, a gust of wind soared through the window and blasted onto her face. All the other witches were now moving away from her as she rose and started to float in the air."Who dares bother me?" She cried, hypnotized. Everyone gazed, mesmorized."I said, who dares bother me?" She cried again, only to cause the other witches to move away even farther. Finally, it was Elizabeth who spoke. "We n-need your h-h-help. W-w-we wish to destroy Goody Two Shoes." Ella remained silent. She continued to stare at Elizabeth. But now even the ghost didn't know what to do next. . .

"You fools! I am not a ghost of hell! I am a ghost from heaven and I shall not help you nor your Goody Two Shoes!" Ella screamed in such a rage no one could have described. As soon as she said that, the ghost came out of Ella's body and she fell to the ground with a loud thud. The witches rushed to her aid. " Don't even try to destroy my daughter! She is stronger than you will ever be!" And with that the ghost cried a bloody curse to them and flew around the room, destroying everything in its path. Then as soon as it came, it disappeared. " Fine then, we don't need your help! We are much stroger than you!" Anes screamed at the ghost, which was no longer there. "Everyone, I have a plan," Georgia whispered from behind a chair. "We are going to have a little fun tonight," She whispered, her voice hoarse. The other witches cackled loudly and mysteriusly. Marabelle was in for a surprise...

The witches dressed so quickly, they were ready within a minute. They brought no suitcases with them, for they knew they won't be gone long. So they boarded the boat, as quick and silent as mice. No one said a word as they crossed The Great Adriatic Ocean. After an hour, they reached Auroria. The Auroran Castle lay upon the high cliff, making it almost impossible to climb inside the tower. But the witches knew how to get there. They held up their staffs and within a moment they were in Marabelle's bedroom. Without a sound, Ella put a hand over Marabelle's mouth and pulled her off the bed. She woke up and tried to scream, but Ella's grip on her mouth was to strong for any sound to come out. The girl struggled and finally, managed to get Ella off her. But no sooner than she got out did Caraline grab her. Her grip was much weaker than Ella's. She managed to squirm out and attempted to jump out the window. All the witches tried to grab her, except Ella. "Let her be. She'll die anyway." And with that everyone stopped. But now Marabelle was holding onto a piece of brick sticking out of the wall. And it was becoming loser and loser. Marabelle slipped and let go of the brick, falling to what seemed like her death. . .

Marabelle, holding her breath, did not even try to scream. It would just make the witches feel good, and anyway, the walls were too soundproof that no one would hear her. Suddenly, she heard something beneath her, and so she looked down and saw her horse, Angel. "Get help, Angel! Move away! I do not want to fall on you!" Marabelle cried. But Angel didn't move. Instead, she jumped into the air and started to fly. At first, Marabelle didn't believe her eyes. But then she saw wings coming out of Angel. And then, she realized, she had wings coming out of her as well! "AHHHHHH!" Marabelle screamed, joyfully. She was flying, absolutley flying. Then, to what seemed like her imagination, Angel started talking to her. Could this day have gotten any more unimaginable? " You are the Queen of Angels, Marabelle. You have great powers of which I cannot explain, but you will learn of them as you make your journey to Adria(Adriatic Islands), but for now, I will be your guide, and then you will be the great and powerful Marabelle, Queen of Angels. You shall rule all the Heavens." Angel became silent. Marabelle looked forward, and suddenly saw the witches flying at her. She raised her hand, and the palm of her hand kept the witches flying home, her powers destroying them...
