Once there was a girl, And her name was Little Red. She set off to her grandma's house, For Gram was sick in bed. She wondered through the forest, With her basket full of bread, She ran into the Big Bad Wolf, "Where are you going?" he said. "I'm headed to my grandma's house, Can't stop to talk," said Red. The sneaky wolf, he made a plan, And then away he sped. When Red got to her grandma's house, She saw her there in bed, "Oh what big eyes, and ears, and teeth, You have upon your head!" "The better to eat you with my dear," The hungry wolf just said. "Please don't eat me" said Little Red, "Just eat my bread instead." The end.

There were once three magical sisters who lived in the woods. Sarah had the power of sight. She could picture anyone's future just by looking at them. Janice had the gift of time. She could quicken, freeze, or [[rewind->Beginning]] it whenever she liked. Persephone had the skill of possession. She could take over anyone or anything she wanted to do her bidding. Nearby, tucked away in a cave, was a man who was constantly plotting to take the sisters' power away. [[One day...]] [[One night...]]

The man tried to sneak into their home to steal their powers. But the sisters were awake and alert when the man tried to sneak in. Janice used her power of time to freeze him in place. Sarah used her gift of sight to see his future, and she saw that no matter what path he would take, he would never give up until he possessed their power. So, Persephone used her ability of possession to make him take a long walk down a short cliff. He was out of their peaceful lives forever. The end.

The man tried to sneak into their home to steal their powers. The sisters were peacefully sleeping so the man was able to quietly take his dagger and... Let's just say they quickly went in their sleep. The powers from their bodies flowed to his and he was able to possess the power of sight, time, and possession. The nearby village and kingdom never knew what he did and he lived happily and evilly. The end.

Then I guess we're done here. Have a good life!

Well... The king was furious Humpty Dumpty couldn't be fixed so he set fire to the villages until someone could fix him. One day, there was one man who had the power of sight, time, and posession, and he put Humpty Dumpty back together. However, the people were angry at the king for burning their villages so they attacked the castle. A war broke out and everyone died. The end. Do you want to hear another story? [[Yes, I need something happier please.->I'd rather hear a different story.]] Or was that enough for you? [[Enough for me!->No thanks.]]

Actually, no. I almost tricked you though! But I'm not [[done->It was okay, I guess.]] with you yet.
