Her bare bright pale feet crunched against the snow beneath her feet as she walked slowly into the deep darkness of her small town's forest.

Not turning back as she heard the sobs and cries of her parents, her ice-cold dark green eyes that seemed to match the tree leaves baring into the bright full dark moon, her pale feet came to a halt.

"Snow!" Her mother cried out her name for the first time in six long years.
She did not flinch as the ice-cold snow began to float down from the dark clouds above, landing on her blonde hair, making it seem to change colour ever so slightly. 

Ignoring the flakes of snow that fell onto her black tank-top covered shoulders.
Her right arm began to lift from her usual sluggish appearance.

It reached for the full moon, as it disappeared from sight as the large dark cloud covered the only source of light. Making it incredibly dark in the woods down below where three people stood still. 

None of them, humans.
No one was. In this small town of theirs..

Snow's once bright green grass eyes had turned into a dull, yet captivating dark green colour that seemed to capture your soul if you stared long enough, her tanned skin turning pale white as it looked like the moon had transferred it's white shade to her as it beamed against her skin. The once blonde hair began turning dark black as the night sky above her head, the two mixing together as you could no longer tell if it was her hair or the sky night that seemed to be falling down to the earth.

Her arm slowly falling down to her side into her natural sluggish position as her eyes closed frighteningly slow, as her mother joined her in the darkness known as sleep consumed the two women. 

Her father releasing his grip from his lover known as Ariea, he began whistling a soft tune of 'Wolves' as his feet backed away from the women, turning on his heels of his thick brown boots causing them to create a crunch from the snow that laid on the grass below as he stomped away into the light of the stars.

Leaving the two sleeping bodies, a pack of wolves of different sizes and colour, but all had the eyes of the night, began stalking towards the two as Snow's fragile looking pale body turned deeper into the snow as the wolves went towards her mother.

Trotting, then running, the wolves snarled at the woman laid in the snow who craved the light of the sun hiding behind the moon, their teeth baring, the alpha of the pack came forward as it did not hesitate to close his open mouth to a closed one against the tanned woman's neck, causing blood to fly high towards the moon as it began flowing up her face to her eyes, as the bite of a wolf injured her voice box, her blue eyes appeared as the wolves began eating her limbs one by one as she squirmed alive and in agony.

Blood turning the pale ice snow, to a cherry looking colour, her head almost dislocated from her neck, did not move as the wolves trotted away, licking their muzzle to clean it of the sweet red blood of Ariea, towards the dark side of the woods, leaving a girl and her mother who was no more than a lump of flesh and bones.

Her limbs slowly becoming numb against the coldness of the white but slightly pink snow, the snarls of the wolves repeated inside Snow's head as she opened her eyes to glance at the remains of her mother, her pale eyes closing once more, the moon became visible to them again as the dark cloud moved on.

It's bright white beams shining down on Snow as her body glistened, slowly fading into light until there was nothing there.

Leaving nothing but a whisper and a tear as she departed from the earth..

Her last words were spoken and engraved into a rock which seemed to appear where Snow's body laid last.

'Forgive me..mother for I have sinned too large to not return my love to you. Accept this tear of mine, to know that I existed. I don't wish to be forgotten..'

The tear of a young girl was hidden underneath the rock that stood still, almost seven feet tall as it loomed over the remains of her mother, the moon shining on the limbs as they slowly sunk into the snow as a flower began to bloom where her heart once was, and that flower was known as 'Snowdrop', but like every flower.. this one was taken from the ground

This one was found and plucked away from the ground by a little boy, who was curious with the world, but little did he know, just by plucking that small flower...

His fate changed drastically...
