2. Chapter 1 - The Family
Many years ago, a Royal family of five lived in a faraway land called: Analaia.
Unfortunately, when the Queen gave birth to Charles (the third and final child) she
became terminally ill; but there was a cure. Luckily for her, a flower called Melanie
was hidden in a deathly castle that a evil King owned. He was called King Bansi.
However some people called him the ghost-of death.
A few hours after the birth, the King set a meeting for the eldest son Hansel.
“Come in boy!” bawled his father.
“Now as you shall know your mother is ill and I need you to obtain the Melanie
flower” his father exclaimed.
“Do I have a choice dad?” he asked politely.
“Yes and no. I offer you a choice but know that you have none. Good luck lad!” the
King said wisely, patting his son on the head for comfort.
3. Despite feeling anxious, Hansel knew
that he must complete this quest to
cure his mother-this wasn’t going to
be easy. So off he set, heading
towards the forest of lost souls…
4. Chapter 2 – The Forest Of
Lost Souls
Gingerly approaching the forest of lost souls, Hansel stopped at a
holt. There it was… Would he dare to enter? Suddenly his heart
started to pound like a constant banging drum in his tight chest.
Blood drained from his face-he went as pale as a wicked ghost.
Hands shook. Knees trembled. A trickle of trepidation crawled
down Hansel's bony spine. Hairs stood up on end at the back of
his sweaty back. What would happen next?
Pacing forwards, a gust of wind swept right through him. “
SPITSPAT!” a spitting sound echoed around him.
“SPITSPAT!” there it was again. Nevertheless, he carried on
walking. All of a sudden, a menacing figure stood before his very
eyes. “SPIT!”
It was a spitting unicorn! Hansel ran as fast as his skinny legs
would carry him. Would he survive?
5. Panting fast, Hansel turned to look behind
him and luckily Misty (the spitting unicorn)
had gone. Stopping in his tracks, he had
arrived at some strange looking cross roads.
What would they lead to? Who will be
awaiting him? Will he choose: West or
East?
West
East
6. Chapter 3 - East
Having decided to go East, Hansel continued on
his journey – he was now one step closer to
finding the Melanie flower. Before long, he came
across a cave -a daunting cave- Which was his
only option. Feeling terrified, Hansel Swiftly
approached the cave… As he entered in, his
shadow dissolved into the surrounding darkness. It
was so dark that he began to see things.
Suddenly, Hansel noticed a bottle green glow
beaming onto the damp walls of the cave; but
then he spotted a pile of bones in a mound on the
floor and bats began to circle . Hansel really
7. West
Having decided to take the West path, Hansel continued on
his quest (to find the flower). After a while, he reached a sickgreen looking river bubbling and spitting. This was his only
option. Running towards the bridge, he noticed a bottle poking
out of the thick slimy river so he went to fetch it.
Reaching into the water, he yanked out the bottle and it had a
note on saying ‘shrinking potion’ so he popped it in his pocket
ready to defeat King Bansi the ugliest smelliest King ever!
Chapter 4 – Belly Castle
8. Chapter 4 – Belly
Castle
After a while, worn out Hansel arrived at the menacing
Belly castle where King Bansi lives-this was the moment
he had been waiting for… Laying before Hansel's very
eyes, was the humongous Grand opening. Was this the
last time he’d be out in the open?
Edging towards the wooden ancient door, he grabbed the
handle and haled the door open. King Bansi appeared
before him laughing an evil laugh.
“what brings you here boy?” Bansi bellowed.
“I’m obtaining the Melanie flower” he explained.
“Well you’ll have to fight for it!” The King growled.
9. Suddenly King Bansi with drew his sword
and they began to fight. Fighting and
Fighting they just wouldn’t stop. Hitting,
spitting, kicking and hissing; but then
Hansel remembered his potion so he
grabbed it out and emptied it all over him.
Suddenly he began to shrink. Smaller and
smaller. Then he was as small as an ant
until he was gone! Slowly walking towards
him he stood on him to make sure he was
dead…
10. Chapter 5 – Victory!
Jumping with joy, Hansel ran over to the cage and
grabbed the priceless flower and held it for away
imagining what it would be like with his mother
cured.
Suddenly, he felt a tingle go down his back as he
blinked he was in his mothers bedroom again
holding her hand. “Oh my precious baby your
back!” she said trying to smile.
“Here mother drink this” he said sweetly as he
squeezed the flower into some honey.
