Snow White the Untold Story

Once upon a time, along time ago, in a far away land, there lived a beautiful young princess. She had dark brown hair, and the most charming pale white skin any one has ever seen. In fact, her skin was so white that every body called her Snow White.

Everyone loved Snow White; they were entranced by her beauty, her snow white skin, her dark brown hair and her blood red lips. Everyone thought that her outer beauty reflected her inner beauty. They were wrong, very wrong.

Snow White had a secret that she had kept hidden for a very long time. She learned to keep her secret well, by staying indoors whenever it was sunny out. She also kept to herself a lot, or so it seemed. You see, Snow White was no ordinary princess. Snow White was a vampire!

Everyone knows that there’s no such thing as a nice vampire, and Snow White was no exception to that rule. She was evil to the bone!

Snow White awoke one miserable, wet morning. “Yes!” she shouted when she saw the rain pouring down from the sky. “I love it when the sun doesn’t shine. Now I can go outside without the sun light killing me.” She got dressed quickly and headed outside to get some food.

Snow White walked to a nearby playground with a squeaky swing set and many trees. She walked up to a group of children and they were immediately mesmerized by her great beauty. “Being beautiful makes everything so easy,” Snow White said to herself. She started talking to a nice, little boy and soon enough they found themselves walking towards her house in the forest. On the way to Snow White’s house, from the corner of her eye she spotted a handsome young man staring at her. She was distracted when the little boy who sneezed three times. “What’s the matter with you, Sneezy?” Snow White asked?

“My name’s not Sneezy,” replied the little boy.

“It is now!” Snow White exclaimed as she pulled him into her house and locked the door behind them. “Sneezy,” she said, “I’d like you to meet Sleepy, Dopey, Doc, Happy, Bashful, Grumpy and Delicious.” Sneezy looked up and saw what looked like seven dwarfs. When he took a better look, Sneezy noticed that the dwarfs were actually children wearing fake beards and old people’s clothes, and that his best friend, Billy, was one of them. Billy had been missing for over a year and everyone had thought he was dead. Now, Sneezy was starting to figure things out.

In the meantime, Snow White had become a bit hungry from her expedition and called one of the dwarf like children over. “Come here Delicious,” she said, and led him out of the house. She returned an hour later, without Delicious and with bright red lips. “You can have Delicious’ bed,” she told Sneezy. “He won’t be coming back.”

The next morning, the seven remaining children were forced to wake up early, put on their fake beards and old people’s clothes and march to work before the sun rose. Snow White followed behind them to make sure they were working. To make it seem like they were happy, she forced them to sing the most ridiculous, overly happy song that no one in their right mind would ever sing on their way to work. It went “Hi ho, hi ho, it’s off to work we go. We work all day, we work all night, hi ho, hi ho, hi ho, hi ho…”

Snow White forced the children to work every day and forced them to pretend that they were happy all the time. Her plan was to make them work until they got big and then serve as her dinner. It was an evil plan.

Snow White thought that no one knew of her evil ways, but she was wrong. One person did know. One person knew everything about Snow White. Even more than she knew, herself. That person was Snow White’s step mother, the queen. Snow White’s mother was a vampire, who died at Snow White’s birth. The queen knew this and had always tried to stop her step daughter from doing evil, but she was never able to control Snow White.

One sunny day when the 7 “dwarfs” were working and snow white was inside planning world domination, there was a knock at the door. It was Snow White’s stepmother disguised as a handsome prince from a far away land who wanted to marry Snow White. When Snow White answered the door it was love at first sight for her.

Before the stepmother came to Snow White’s house she prepared a garlic clove disguised as a blood red apple both in appearance and smell. Being a witch, and knowing so many spells this was very easy for her.

Snow White made the foolish mistake everyone made with her. She trusted someone just because he was handsome.

“I saw you walking to your house last night and you looked hungry, so I picked this apple for you,” lied the stepmother still disguised as a prince.

“That’s nice of you but I don’t really like apples,” said Snow White just trying to carry on the conversation.

“Oh, that’s too bad. This looks like the best one I have ever seen in my life. I guess I’ll just eat it myself. Sorry for bothering you.”

The stepmother was getting worried that her plan would fail; she was turning to go when Snow White said, “Wait, it looks like you tried so hard to get this for me, I’d feel bad not eating it, so how about we split it?”

The Queen was relieved to hear this and immediately cut the apple in half with the sword she was carrying as part of her disguise. Snow white, glad the prince stayed to share the apple with her, instantly took a gigantic bite. As soon as her mouth hit the “apple” she fell into a deep sleep. The only way for her to awaken was for a real prince to give her a kiss from the heart, which would change her into the lovely girl her stepmother always wanted her to become.

When the local prince heard the news about Snow White he got very, very sad. The Queen then told him if he gives Snow White a kiss from the heart, even if she does not wake up, Snow White will know how much he loves her.

“Ever since I first saw Snow White in the park I wanted to marry her, now I will never get the chance to,” cried the real prince.

“Please calm down, there’s nothing we can do now, but pray and show how much we love her, so go now and kiss her,” exclaimed the Queen in a soothing, soft voice.

The Prince listened to the Queen and went to kiss Snow White. He found her on a glass encased bed. He lifted the glass and bent over her, holding back his tears he gave her the most loving kiss from the heart. When his lips touched hers, her eyes

slowly opened and simultaneously her face changed color. Her face was no longer snow white. It was a tan color, and her lips were no longer blood red. They were a pale pink color. The Prince shocked by the transformation before his eyes, fell forward hitting his head on the edge of glass case. Blood squirted all over Snow Whit but Snow White, no longer a Vampire, was repulsed!

The seven kids who were working on a coffin for Snow White saw she was alive and that the Prince was unconscious covered in blood on the floor. They assumed he was dead by the fact he was not breathing and put the coffin to work.

The Queen walked into the room where she helped Snow White clean the blood off herself. The Queen realized her plan worked and was very happy. Snow White had no recollection of what she had been like before. The Queen placed a jasmine wreath on her head because that was the fashion for princesses in those days.

The Queen told Snow White that she was not snow white any more. Her skin was now a lovely, healthy tanned colour. She decided to call her Jasmine.

Since Snow White had no memory of what happened or all the children. The Queen cast a spell on the children and all the people in the town to make them forget about everything Snow White had done.

Jasmine loved the sunshine so much that she decided to move to Agrabah, where the sun shines every day and she could stay with her uncle who was the king.

Jasmine was lost while traveling through the desert and was helped by a young man. The young man introduced himself, “Hi, my name is Aladdin and this is my monkey, Abu.” For Jasmine and Aladdin it was love at first sight. He helped her find her way to her uncle’s palace. And the rest is another story!
