[Justin, easier to just swim down]

Chapter 1


Eugene hadn’t felt this terrified in all his life. He was the oldest of the group, at age twelve, so he was expected to be the bravest and the strongest; but right now he felt as far away from strong as one could get. They were all orphans. Most of the time, they stayed at the same site in the woods, but occasionally they would move if animals or people discovered the site. Tonight, someone had discovered the site. And it hadn’t gone too well.
He ducked under a tree and lifted one of the little orphans into his arms. The hooves behind him were only growing louder, his heart pumping faster, his legs moving slower. He could never be sure how many survivors were still running behind him. He skidded to a halt as the path in front of him suddenly cut off, and he veered to the left. He heard a few behind him, followed by shouts and more hooves. Eugene was heading into thicker woods now. A branch scraped across his cheek, sending the blood down his chin. The sky was getting darker, and little Julian whimpered in his arms. He kept running until his legs felt like lead. Normally at this time of day he would stop to look at the stars, but tonight there was no such enjoyment. Tonight he had to stay alive.
Eugene sprinted with another final burst of energy until he came to a cliff. Below was a rapid cascade of freezing cold water. He looked behind him and counted only six kids. The cavalry were close behind. In a moment of panic, his mind led him to the extreme. “Hold on tight, Julian,” he said at the large, apprehensive eyes looking up at him. Then, in one quick motion, Eugene jumped into the current below.

* * *

The water almost numbed him to the bone. Even after he had survived jumping off a cliff, he might have gotten hypothermia and died by the hand of Germany it self. His arms felt lighter, and he realized he had let go of Julian. His mind filled with worry. He swam deeper and found the toddler flailing around, trying to reach the wind above. Eugene kicked rapidly and propelled over to Julian. He reached out to him and scooped him up, just before he hit the rocky floor. Quick currents were passing over them, and it was hard to break the surface. When Eugene finally made it to air, he only counted three that had jumped. Above him, he assumed, the others had been forced into their worst nightmare: captivity. In the morning, there had been fifteen; now there were only five.


The boys slept in a somber silence; the melancholic scent of death hung in the air. Eugene had made a small fire to keep them warm, but anything too large would send a smoke signal out to the soldiers of Corona. His cheek was healing, but the others’ bruises and cuts had no such luck. Plus, they were all soaked in freezing cold water, and had just sprinted about four miles. They weren’t in the best shape.

It's going to go on after that, but… that's the beginning! :)

Ohmygosh that's really good!!!!!!!!!!

[Justin, easier to just swim down]

Thanks! It took a lot of going back and editing. I have a bad habit of rushing things, so thats why I'm good at chase scenes: they're supposed to sound rushed! XD I think I told some of you guys about this story earlier, but… its changed a lot :P The main villain will probably be Lucifer Tremaine (husband of the evil step mother, who in Cinderella is a cat). I also want to put Gothel somewhere in there, but I'm not sure how… she might end up being the mother of Prince Adam (the beast) but they don't look much alike. Also, since there's a magic flower in Tangled and in Beauty and the Beast, there will be something about that… idk, tell me if you have any ideas! :)

[[deleted user]]

That sounds so cool!!!! And okay...I'll put my thinking hat on haha :p and lol I tend to be too descriptive in more actiony scenes when i'm not supposed to and i'm not descriptive enough in normal parts -___- :p

[Justin, easier to just swim down]

/: Writing is so hard… so many things to think about, but then when you just plop them in there, it doesn't "flow", so then you have to make it sound good and use cool words, and then you have to worry about not reusing words because that sounds "awkward", and… yeah :P

[[deleted user]]

Ugh I know, right? I always repeat words too...such as "I" or "she" or the character's name. I always have to go back and fix it so it doesn't sound..weird. Lol.

[[deleted user]]

[[deleted user]]

@ Hermes aww:/ that happens to be a lot too. Then i have to rewrite everything!

[[deleted user]]

Gtg again...have to run errands with my sis.

[➳Halina➳]

K. I REALLY wish I could open up Ask Broadway- It's finished!

[Justin, easier to just swim down]

Is it opening March 1st?

[➳Halina➳]

That's what you said.

[ʟ ᴀ ᴜ ʀ ᴀ]

Why can't it be opened earlier? And Halina, do you need any help with it?

[➳Halina➳]

No, I got it.

[ʟ ᴀ ᴜ ʀ ᴀ]

Okay, but why can't it be opened before March 1st?

[➳Halina➳]

I think because they are focused on getting people into the present ASK groups, and there are so many already. But, Hermes, can I open it earlier or no?

[ʟ ᴀ ᴜ ʀ ᴀ]

Well, tell me when it is opened, because it sounds really fun!!!

[Justin, easier to just swim down]

…..hmm…………… nah just stick with March 1st. You'll survive XD

Aww! :( Why do people do that to you?! At my school there's a strict no bullying policy, and there's no popular group (At least in my grade) so I can't relate. D:

Maybe because some people are inconsiderate jerks who don't care about anybody else's feelings:(
And my school has a no bullying thing too..And this thing called "THINK" Is it Thoughtful, Helpful, Inspiring, Necessary, and Kind? Pft...nobody even follows THINK-_- And lucky(about the no popular group thing)

[≈aleх: pнoenιх oғ тнe ғlaмe≈]

I could relate in Elementary school... Middle school is... not as bad. I'm not excluded anymore :/

[[deleted user]]

Aww, being excluded is the worst feeling ever(Well, one of the worst feelings..)
And I hate middle school. Elementary school was ehh...4 grade sucked..5 grade was actually okay. The 2 half of the year was. And then came 6 grade(ugh) and 7 grade this year..YAY!*Sarcasm*-_-

[[deleted user]]

I gave up on friendships. But Before, I would be a Loner, and then be "friends" with somebody..then that person would hate me for an unknown reason and ignore me/leave me out on things/bully me. Then I'd go back to being s Loner. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat.
But NOW, I'm a full time Loner!!!! HAHAHAAHHAAHHAAHAHHAHAHAAHAA!

._.

Mal: It wasn't that funny...

Me: I established that 2 seconds ago. Thanks-.-

[[deleted user]]

Wow I suck at jokes. Full time loner...*Bangs head on wall whilst muttering to self*

[≈aleх: pнoenιх oғ тнe ғlaмe≈]

:/

[[deleted user]]

:( Err...On a brighter note...I saw something online and HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA it's so funny:P AND ITS AN HP REFERENCE!

"People ask why girl's go with each other to the bathroom at school. Well, Hermione went alone and got attacked by a troll."
BAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAAHAAHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHHAAHAHHAHAHHAA! That sounded so forced and insane O_O

Though that's not the real reason, obviously.... 'popular' girls in my gradee who go to the bathroom together don't even like books thus haven't read HP._. they just go to the bathroom together so they ca fix each other's hair and help eCh other with their makeup-_-

[≈aleх: pнoenιх oғ тнe ғlaмe≈]

And share gossip, I'd imagine -_-

[[deleted user]]

YUP! That too. It's annoying. When I'm hiding in the stall during lunch(Yes, I do that-.- to avoid...certain people >.<)i can hear those stupid girls who havethe IQ of a crayon box(-_-)gossip and gossip. JUST SHUT UP ALREADY!!!!!! NO ONE CARES WHOS DATING WHO YOURE 12 YEARS OLD YOU SHOULDNT EVEN BE DATING(though that's my opinion on little 7 graders dating)UGHHHHHH!

[≈aleх: pнoenιх oғ тнe ғlaмe≈]

unugh:hn-m+n&b&-'j+h'h:j:'&

[[deleted user]]

It's scary >.< 12 year olds dating. Making out with other people._.(Excuse me while I....*vomits*)Jeez. Stop trying to grow up so fast-_- And elementary schoolers date too...WTH(HADES not...He**)That's just weird :/ I'm not allowed to date until I'm 18. And I don't even plan on dating anybody ever. Forever alone. I have Jem Carstairs from TID-he's all I need^_^ but anyways...Kids these days >.<

[≈aleх: pнoenιх oғ тнe ғlaмe≈]

IKR?! People are so immature! My friends constantly bring up "private parts" and "love making" while I'm trying to enjoy milk and a cookie -_- Did I tell you one of those friends LIKES me???
