Princess of Swan Lake Chapter 2: Life at the Lake so far
Odette quickly adapted to her life as a swan. She learned the fly as frequent as a swan but no matter how much time she spends with her newfound friends...she deeply misses home.
"Feeling homesick?" Ask Amethyst, trotting towards the Swan.
"Honestly, yes, but I know I can't go back. I thank Persephone for everything she could for us. So I have no right no complain."
"Well, the sun's getting set in the next hour. I'm surprised you adapted to this lifestyle fast."
Odette was surprised herself, being a swan was so easy and she learns every day, but she wished there was a way to change the spells casted on them and be normal again.
Odette just smiles."I tend to learn very quickly I supposed."
The next hour of swimming in the lake, the sun finally settled down and every one reverted back to human.
Odette stretches a little."Another successful day with trouble." She said, sitting.
Well, she wished she kept that to herself, as soon as she heard cackles in the distance.
Odette jumps."I'm gonna go look." She said, getting up.
"Be careful and stay outta sight of him." Persephone warns."He'll do anything if he sees you."
Odette nods and she stealthily go from tree to tree, slowly as she gets closer, she hears little whimpers and cries.
She finally finds them and hides.
The scene was a little cream deer, who was shaking scared. Rothbart and Odile were there as well, but Rothbart did most of the talking.
"Now you'll have to listen to me. If you steal the gem from me..I'll change you back. Or refuse and you'll be stuck this way forever." Rothbart says, his smirk never leaving his face.
The deer shakes their head and starts to run in a certain direction.
Odette quickly follows the deer, calling for it as she ran.
"No! I don't want to steal!" They say, and hides in the bush.
Odette stops and sits on the ground, talking to the deer behind the bush."Shhh...I won't hurt you. You can tell me what happened."
The deer didn't say anything for a while but they let out a sigh."I was following a butterfly and then I got lost, I try to go back but i got lost and couldn't find my way back. I was wondering till the big eagle thing came and turned human. He only stared at me and turned me into a deer and told me steal something, he would change me back! But I don't wanna steal!"
Odette pets the deer's ear."I know you don't. I'm like you." She soothes,"I'll take you to our lake. My friend can help you."
She leads the deer to the lake, everyone stopped to look.
"Who are they!?" The deer gasp.
"Just like you, turned by that man."
The deer sighs as Persephone flies over."Hello there. What's your name?"
"Francis." The deer answered.
Persephone smiles and turns Francis to their human form.
Odette smiles.
Vanessi and Vixon talked to Francis, trying to make them welcome in the lake.
Odette sat by the tree and watches everything, them talking and dancing a lot.
Odette Giggles as Daisy shyly trying to follow the Hyperactive Vixon's moves, along with Vanessi.
"Come on, Odette!" Vixon cheers."Dance with us!"
Odette shrugs and starts to dance her signature dance of the swan and dances with the children.
Everyone continue to dance happily till sunrise and revert to animal forms.
"Let's go it again soon!" Vixon said.
Odette and Daisy retreated to the lake and swam around, talking, which seem like for hours.
Daisy normally would hide under Odette's wing whenever she can, Odette never minded.
Suddenly an arrow came and hit a nearby tree.
Daisy screams and hides in Odette's wing, shaking and crying.
Odette gasp and swims Daisy to a nearby bush and flew to see a women, wielding a bow.
Odette gasp and swoops down and stops the women.
"A swan?!" She gasp.
Odette flew away and the women aims for her.
"Do it..Do it..."Whispered a voice in her head.
The women tried but drops her aim.
Odette noticed and flew down to the rim of the lake.
Where she transforms to her human form as the sunset once again.
The first thing she does? Stomps to the hunter and grab the bow."How dare you do that to us?! That was so uncalled for!"
The women face went a little red at the swan women and clears her throat.
"I'm sorry..." The women said and bows."I..I apologise, I was supposed to be hunting in my spear time. And I got lost."
Odette sighs as Daisy comes to Odette and clutches her arm.
"I'm Princess Leia." The women said, looking down at Daisy.
"I'm Odette and the girl you scared is Daisy.."
"I'm sorry, Daisy."Leia apologized immediately."But..how are you all..."
"It's a little bit of a long story.." Odette said, looking down.
"Oh, I suppose so."
Turns out, Leia came the same waterfall but some dark magic opened it for her and she entered.
"Rothbart.."Amethyst growls.
"Why does he want me? I mean I am supposed to marry but I haven't meet someone I would marry."
Odette nods and looks down."I'm here so I can save the enchanted forest one day."
"Your braver then you think." Amethyst said, nudging her.
Odette rolls her eyes.
Leia and the others have a good conversation before Leia leaves so she doesn't report being missing.
Leia walks to the waterfall and gets on the her horse to ride home.
Rothbart stops the horse."Hello there!"
Leia looks."Hmm?"
"Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Rothbart. And I came here with a proposal." He said, walking towards the princess.
"May I ask what it is?"
"I'll have you marry my daughter. I heard from the grapevine that you were looking for a spouse."
Leia nods."Yes I have."
"Make a proposal for a ball in 3 days, and you'll meet her on that day at that ball."
Leia nods."Alrightz but I don't love her, you'll leave this be. And if I do, I'll marry her."
Rothbart smirks and nods."Of course."
