Alora Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Alora. She lived under a queen's castle. In her quaint village of gnomes, Alora was exceptionally tall. She was taller than the gnomes already at the age of 10. Confusion rose in the village wondering what they should do. Alora wanted to hide in the undergrove, where she once had, but she was now too big to hide behind the bushes. The villagers' remarks made towards Alora started piling up by the time she almost turned eleven.

The witch liked the little girl very much. During the nap, the witch took her magic wand and gave her own immortality to the little girl so her friend would live forever.

When the little girl woke up, the witch asked if she would like to join her in a game with wands. The witch liked to play this game. The little girl agreed and the two had a duel to see who could cast the most beautiful spells. At the end of the game, the witch suddenly sat down and told the little girl she wasn’t feeling well. The little girl asked how she could help, but the witch said she had helped her more than she knew. The witch asked the little girl to go back home. The little girl wanted to stay longer, but the witch insisted she leave. When the door shut, the little girl remembered that she had forgotten to give the witch the cupcakes so she went back and knocked on the door. No answer. She knocked again.

The Witch and the Little Girl Once upon a time, there was a very scary witch. Everyone was afraid of her, except one special girl. She was sweet and kind and everyone loved her. She was so sweet, she didn’t believe that the witch was scary. She saw the good in everyone. One day she was especially curious about the witch, so she went into town and asked everyone about her. No one dared to talk about the witch, they just smiled and walked away. She was still curious though, so she found out where the scary witch lived and decided she would go to meet the witch for herself. The little girl was so sweet that she brought a basket of cupcakes.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

The Witch and the Little Girl-Antea.docx

The next day the little girl told her mother she was going out to visit a friend and started her adventure. The witch’s house was just outside the village. As the little girl walked to the witch’s house, she thought of an escape plan even though she wasn’t expecting any problems. She found herself at the end of the village and then entered a dark forest.

The door opened by itself and the little girl saw the witch laying on the sofa. The witch had died in her sleep.

The little girl was so sad. She ran all the way back to the village and told everyone that the witch had died. Everyone shouted that she was a hero! But the little girl didn’t feel like a hero at all. The little girl went home crying while the village celebrated. Later that night the little girl was in her room, very sad. 

Suddenly, she saw the witch outside her window. But she looked different. She looked so beautiful. The witch then told the little girl how she was stuck in a horrible body because of a curse. She had to do a selfless act and then the curse would be broken. She hadn’t really died, the curse had just been broken. The little girl took the beautiful witch by the hand and they went to the village. The villagers were surprised when the little girl told them what had happened and when they saw the beautiful witch. Everyone was happy and they all celebrated together!

Unknown&nbsp; Once upon a time, there was a boy that realized he didn't have a reflection in the mirror. After he saw that, he woke up. He said to himself: "It's just a dream!".&nbsp; He got out of bed and had his morning routine. He went to school but something was weird, everyone was ignoring him. They would not look at him, greet him, nor talk to him. When he came home he opened the bathroom door and entered inside. He washed his face with water and then looked in the mirror. There was no reflection. He blacked out. The boy then woke up in his bed. He thought he had been double dreaming. He went to the bathroom and saw a familiar face in the mirror laughing at him. He realized the face was not really his.

One day the village chief called Alora to come to his office. “Alora, my dear, I am afraid we have come to a decision. This is not my own belief, but solely the villages'. But we have decided to send you to the above.”&nbsp; Alora, baffled by what the village chief said, shouted at him: “No! You can’t send me to the above grounds, what would they do to me?”. “Alora, we are afraid we have no choice but to reconnect you with your own kind." Alora had no choice but to leave. On her way out she swore that she would return someday.

Once Alora finally made it to the above grounds, she saw the sun for the first time. Realizing her new discovery, she went to a nearby villager and asked them: “How far away is the roof?” The villager pushed her away thinking she was playing with her. Alora further stared at the sky, not realizing for a bit until she looked next to her and saw a boy looking at her with a weird face. “What are you doing?” asked the boy. Alora then answered with the same question she had asked the lady.&nbsp; The boy laughed at her face, but before he could answer Alora walked away.

SCHOOL RIOT&nbsp; 	Once upon a time, there was a school. It was supposed to be a building where children learn, but it was actually a place where they learned useless facts and if they didn't know them, they failed and could never get out. We are Carlo and Josip, and we are the main witnesses of the following "sabotage".&nbsp; 	There was a Christmas fest, and our class had great ideas on how to earn money. All the money earned was taken away by the school from all classes. They said they'd use that money to improve our school, but they didn't. All the students were angry. After the Christmas fest at school, we all got big reading lists, which made us even angrier. That drop overflowed the cup.&nbsp;&nbsp; 	We held a secret meeting of students of all classes where we decided to rebel. The deal was to influence the teachers and the principal to change their actions. Then we, Josip and Carlo, came up with an idea. We would make flyers with a list of all the necessary changes and paste them all over the school and classrooms.

Finally, the teachers and the principal realized how persistent we were and that we were not going to give up until the change came about. After a week, they realized we were right and accepted our ideas. Then the events at the school suddenly started changing in the right direction, and guess what? We all lived happily ever after.

THE OLD WISE PATRICK Once upon a time, there was a ship that was sailing in the Pacific Ocean. The captain of the ship was an old wise Patrick, who knew every corner of the Pacific Ocean.

One day it was raining heavily, and the Ocean was very angry. The Kraken wasn’t sleeping, it was on the surface, restless. The ship was going in Kraken’s way. When it saw them, it immediately attacked the ship. They were fighting intensely. Once the old Patrick arrived on the deck, he used his special power of meditation and calmed the Kraken down. &nbsp;After calming down, the Kraken had no choice but to go into its mysterious cave defeated.

The door was a little stuck, but they managed to enter. Unfortunately, her dad was sick. The cat said: “You go make him some tea; I will take care of him." She responded: “But you're just a cat. How can someone like you take care of him while I'm gone?“. The cat went silent. Jim didn't want to ask any questions, so she went to make him tea. Suddenly, she heard screaming. The cat ate her dad. She went to fight the cat, but she lost and the cat ate her.

About three hours later, a hunter came and saw a fat cat. Something had happened, he thought. When he saw the cat's face, he knew that the cat was the evil cat king. He shot him and rescued Jim, her dad, and the cat. The cat apologized, but they didn't forgive him, although they did give him a second chance. And they lived happily ever after. THE END

She would promise them something, but in return, they would have to give her their beauty. That is also how she got a hold of the king's daughter, Ariel...

Eva &amp; Ema's (7B) horror fairy tale

BABA YAGA There was a legend that in the dark woods of Krim an evil old lady lived. The only way she could survive and live eternally was to devour children. She had a magical house that could walk on her command. One day a child got lost in the forest she lived in. As soon as she heard the child crying, she moved her house towards him. The child went in hoping that there was someone who could help him because he was really cold and hungry. The house was empty but there was a cozy-looking bed, a fireplace, and some food. The child ate and decided to rest. While resting the child fell asleep. But in the middle of the night, he woke up because he heard a noise. He was scared and had a bad feeling in his stomach.

When he turned around, he saw an ugly old lady crawling around. He screamed and the next moment he was gone. Baba Yaga took his soul and ate his body. By eating his body, she finally got what she wanted, to be younger again. But he wasn’t her last victim. His single mom got very worried and caused a riot. A few people whose children had also gone missing all went to the woods to find him. They got lost in Baba Yaga´s woods. And came across her house.

He saw German soldiers and tried to behave as usual. They approached him because he was wearing weird clothes for the time, and asked him a question in German. He was scared and didn't say anything, and the Germans forced him into a questioning room. He told them everything about the machine and they went to Hitler to tell him about the man. Hitler threatened that if the man didn't say what would happen to Germany he would be tortured. The man admitted that Nazi Germany would be defeated. He explained when and how it would happen.

After he was taken into a waiting room, he managed to flee. He ran out of the building and soldiers chased him to the house where he had left the machine. They started shooting at him. He went to the basement, changed the date,&nbsp;and pushed the red button. He went back to the year 2007, but it was different. The man appeared in a museum that had red Nazi flags on the walls, and all the people there were staring at him. German soldiers approached him and took him into a car. While they were driving, he realized what he had done.

She started getting scared, and just when she thought she should turn back, she saw a house. It must be the witch’s house, she thought to herself. She walked to the old wooden door and knocked. The witch herself opened the door. 

She wasn’t expecting the girl, but she invited her anyway. The witch was very sweet. The little girl was surprised, but quickly got over it and was just as nice back. The two new friends talked and talked, and the little girl got tired. She had walked the whole way to the house. The witch saw the little girl was tired and gave her a blanket, and told her to take a short nap.

There was a lady who walked by. She approached her in a state of shock: “Dear, why are you so pale? You must come with me to the royal hospital!”&nbsp; Alora, staying quiet, looked at the woman with a puzzled face before she grabbed her arm and took her to the hospital. Alora was examined there and questioned about her habits. Luckily it wasn’t much of a problem, but not so luckily the doctors were asking Alora questions she couldn’t answer. Where Alora lived must remain a secret, and what Alora did wouldn’t be perceived as normal. The doctors, curious about Alora, decided to call in the woman who had brought her in.&nbsp; Alora had to go with her and the woman looked very happy to take her in.

When they arrived at her new home, Alora looked up and saw a castle before her eyes. “Welcome to your new home! Well, temporary.” “Oh my! It’s beautiful, I am honored to be staying here.” “It’s my pleasure, darling. Why don’t we get you situated?” The woman brought Alora to a beautiful room on the first floor of the castle. She told Alora to make herself at home.&nbsp; “I must go to a meeting now. If you need anything, just ask the help, there are many of them here.” Alora just nodded her head as the lady left.

The evil witch opened the door even before she could knock. But Ljerka didn’t know who she was, because she was all dressed up. Ljerka introduced herself and the witch asked her if she would like a cup of tea with mushrooms. Ljerka accepted the offer and came inside.

When she drank the tea, she started feeling dizzy. The witch said that she had put in drugs and that she was going to die.

At that moment, a wizard barged in. He cursed the evil witch and cured Ljerka. He told her that he was going to take care of the witch and that she should go home. On her way there, she met a handsome young boy named Zvonko and asked him if he could take her back to the village. Along the way, they talked about their lives and got really close. When they got there they kissed. They got married at the age of 19. They had 15 kids and lived happily ever after.

He turned around just to see his own Shadow grow bigger than ever. The Sun went down together with the shadow. Together with Timothy. He was swallowed by the darkness of the Shadow. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Timothy walked through the hallways. Through the Shadows. All of them were the same, but he saw them in a different way. In a strange light in which they shined. They were darker than the night and brighter than the Sun. The darkness in them made some devour their rightful companion. Their “friend”. That scared Timothy. He now became afraid of the Shadow. Timothy ran but the Shadow followed him. He ran into the Sun. It seemed brighter than it usually was. As bright as the shadow. Timothy stopped running. &nbsp;

He now was a shadow himself. Nobody realized Timothy had vanished. Nobody would’ve cared, but even if they did, Timothy had already forgotten. He became everything he ever wanted to be; Nothing. He was the darkness of one’s heart, he was a soul, he was a memory and he was the truth. He finally came into the light. He wasn’t afraid of it anymore. The Shadow. He was his very own Shadow.

SHADOW Once Upon a time, there lived a boy called Timothy. He was sadder than a bowl of cold soup, thinner than a stick, and smarter than a… rock. He felt uncomfortable in the light so he always walked through the Shadows. The Shadow was his friend. It didn’t follow him around, but it appeared when he needed it the most. His own Shadow. After spending time with it, he realized everyone has their own shadow. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ”They’re everywhere.”- He said.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Back to the future Once upon a time, a man was walking with his two friends in the year 2007 and they saw an old broken house. They were interested in what was inside, so they went in. There was a lot of dust and spiderweb. They didn't see anything interesting, but suddenly one of them fell through a carpet. They noticed that there was a hole under it and the other two jumped in. It seemed it was a hidden basement with a strange machine. That was a metal machine with a seat, buttons, and levers. There was a date which you could change with buttons. They didn’t know that it was a time machine, but they wanted to see what it could do. Nobody wanted to go first, but one of them said: ‘’I will do it’’. He sat in it and pushed the red button.

The machine started to shake and glow. It glowed so much that they couldn’t see anything and it suddenly disappeared. The man who was sitting in the machine went to the year 1942. The house looked new. He went outside, saw the date in the newspapers, and couldn't believe that it was the time of WWII.&nbsp;

When she woke up in the morning, Alora realized that she missed her life underground. She got up, tried to pick up a shoe on the ground, and saw that a tile below it could move. Alora grabbed the tile and suddenly realized that her room had been directly above her homeland. Shocked by this discovery, she soon learned all the tiles in her room were removable. Though Alora didn't move any more of them, she was tempted to do so.&nbsp; Soon Alora called in the woman and told her, “Ma’am, could we perhaps turn this room into a greenhouse? Before my family passed away, I had lived in a greenhouse and now I wish we could do the same here.” The woman was startled by what she said, but answered: “Yes! Absolutely we can, sweetheart, this is just one of many extra rooms we have without use, but we could create a small greenhouse here.” Alora jumped excitedly because she could now live with her family again.

Several days later, the villagers began working on the greenhouse, but once they discovered the gnomes' existence, the work ceased. Alora went to the people to ask why the construction had stopped. They told her it was because of a gnome infestation below. Alora soon rushed to the gnomes and asked them how they were. The gnomes furiously snapped at her baffled by her betrayal. Alora responded: “I just wanted to live in the castle and with you!” Soon the gnomes all fled.

A day later, Alora was looking at the progression of the greenhouse and was horrified to see the gnomes' village being set ablaze. A shriek of horror filled the castle. Alora realized that the gnomes had wanted her to reconnect with her kind, and in her own state of selfishness, she had gone to kill and destroy the village.

MINES Once upon a time, there was a boy named Fićo who had a normal life. He worked very hard in the mines with his friends Zuzi, Željka, Roko, and Štefica. Their boss Maja was very strict and she wanted them to be very hardworking. One day Fićo was tired, so he said: „I wish I had nothing to do“. What he didn't know was that the wish was going to become true. The next day he couldn't get out of bed, so he decided to stay home, eat chips and play video games. His friends got worried because he never missed a day at the mines. The first five days went great, he was happy and relaxed, but he wanted to see his friends and go to work. Out of tiredness and sadness, he screamed: "I wish everything could go back to normal!“. Suddenly, a portal appeared. He went through it, saw his friends at the mines, and started working. He realized he should be grateful for his life.

Ursula-the birth of a sea witch Once upon a time, there was a beautiful mermaid called Vanessa. She had dark hair and midnight blue eyes, and a dark purple tail. She came from a rich family. Her father was a doctor and her mother knew how to use natural sources. She had a red-haired sister whose name was Athena. Vanessa was always jealous of her sister because she was about to get married to the future king whom she loved. On the day of her sister's wedding, she came in wearing a red dress, which meant that she wanted to ruin their marriage.

Ursula

On their wedding night, Vanessa went up to the stage and started singing the best she could. The king and her sister were horrified by her singing. They said some mean comments and told her to go because they didn't want the wedding to be ruined. Vanessa ran away in tears saying she would get her revenge. A few years later, seven daughters were born to the king and queen. Vanessa heard the happy news and took her chance. She went up to the sailors in her human form and told them there was a mermaid they needed to catch and where they could find her. The sailors waited at the spot, and when Athena showed up, they caught her. Athena cried for help, but no one came.

Little Blue Riding Hood Once upon a time, there was a girl named Jim. She was wild and she would always wear a blue cap, but one particular day her grandpa told her to go visit her dad. She said: “OK!“, and just as she was about to open the door, her grandpa said: “Don't talk to strangers!”. The little girl was off to see her dad and while she was going through a forest she met a cat, but the cat could talk. The cat said: “Hello, little girl, where are you going to?“.

Jim panicked, but she remembered what her grandpa had said: “Talk to strangers!“. So she responded: “I'm going to see my dad, would you like to join me?“. The cat grinned and nodded, and so they went to the house where her dad lived.

They yelled out his name. They needed a break, so they went inside. One of the people who came looking for him was a priest. He fell asleep and got possessed by Baba Yaga.

He was now her slave but only during the night. That same night there was a huge blizzard, and in the morning they couldn’t leave the house. They weren't properly dressed and would freeze to death. So, they decided to stay inside until the weather calmed down. At nighttime the priest would deliver the people to the basement where Baba Yaga was hiding, then he would go back to sleep and not remember anything except for some blurry images.

There were fewer and fewer people until only the priest was left. Baba Yaga ate him as well, for she no longer needed him. The people's spirits wandered around the forest and finally reunited with the boy.

Every morning another person disappeared, and everybody panicked, but they still couldn’t go outside because it got even worse.

Baba Yaga is still peacefully sitting on the sofa by the fireplace hunting her victims but remaining a mystery.

But in the end, Turkey the turkey who lived in Turkey ended up being a smart little baby turkey. One day Turkey the turkey who lived in Turkey met Chick the chick from Chic-fil-A, who ran away from India because people there made chicken curry. She said she needed help so Turkey let her in his house. Chick the chick explained everything to him and Turkey thought the people from India made turkey curry, too. He was so scared that he buried Chick the chick alive so he would never have to worry about people from India again, but when Turkey fell asleep, Chick the chick turned into an Indian guy.

Ljerka Once upon a time, there was a small village called Winderworld. Not too far away, there was a big scary dark forest. In that forest, in a small hut, lived an evil witch called Baba Štef. There was a girl in the village named Ljerka who lived with her family. She had 7 sisters and 5 brothers. They had a medium size farm where they had 5 monkeys, 8 snakes, a crocodile, and 50 hamsters. Ljerka went to the forest to search for blue frogs. At one moment, she realized that she went too far and that she got lost. Then she saw the hut and decided to go there and ask for help.

The tears of a darling&nbsp; Once upon a time, there was a girl that no one in her village liked. They said she was too kind. In the village, everyone was so ruthless and rude, all except her. She was the black sheep.&nbsp;

One night on the full moon her stepmother blindfolded the so-called by many "darling of the village“ and took her into the dark forest. When they were far too deep into the forest the stepmother let go of the girl's hand and ran away. Once the girl took the blindfold off and realized she was left alone in the darkness with no way home, she sat on a rock and wondered what she had done to deserve that. Warm tears started rushing from her eyes and down her face. The moonlight managed to find its way through the trees and it shined on the darling making her feel warm. Her hands started to harden and it soon spread through her entire body until it was stone. Her now dried-up tears left dark marks on her cold stone face.&nbsp;

Today, the once-living girl is still there, sitting on that rock for people and tourists to see her. It is said that on the full moon she becomes a little more alive and her darling tears roll down her face and softly fall onto the ground. But it is tears of happiness that she cries because she is finally loved.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;

His dad put his index and middle finger in the air and swung his hand to the bottom of his chest while saying the magic words: “I’m going to get some milk!” A vortex of some sort started forming around the dad’s body. The dad was slowly disappearing. In a few seconds, he fully disappeared along with the vortex, but there were still some weird purple particles. The dad never came back.

A romantic fairytale

All stories start with “once upon a time”, but this one doesn’t. This one is happening now. There is a little kingdom on the top of a mountain called “Ružica grad” where fairies live. They are happy, but also sad because their kingdom is named after their hero who is buried there. There aren’t only fairies there, there is also a dragon. They are friendly until you try to steal from them. They dislike thieves, traitors, and royalty. Their life is simple and beautiful. They live off honey and have different bug wings, some like butterflies (they are in charge of food), some like dragonflies (they are in charge of post), and some like stag beetles or bees. They don’t have an army because they don’t need one (they have a dragon to protect them). The fairies are playing when they hear a loud roar. They fly home. For some reason the dragon is angry; he comes out of his cave and speaks in a slow and deep voice: “Who has stolen from us!? Who has stolen from me!?”. The fairies all shudder and stay quiet. Fairies don’t steal and never has anyone ever stolen from them. They don't realize that one of them is an imposter; one of them isn’t a real fairy. It is a tiny man called Joey.

They are all afraid, including Joey. He is putting back the treasure and is even thinking about apologizing to the dragon. Then he realizes the dragon would probably rip his head off, so he runs away. He is the only one who has ever tried to steal from them ever again. The end
