This is a collection of stories from the same universe. The students of CHS preform plays from stories such as Beauty and the beast, sleeping beauty, faithful john, bearskin, mother holle and many more. a wide range of familer and not so familer characters put their acting skills to the test. there is also a narrerator for each story but I'm leaving their identity up to the reader. so what do you get when you bring a whole group of students with differing personalites together?

fun and crazy antics.

Rumplestiltskin

once upon a time there lived a miller and his daughter. Her name was Melissa and she was a caring, hardworking girl who did her best to put food on the table for her and her father everyday. Her father on the other hand though he loved his daughter a great deal couldn't help but exageratte her abilites to the townsfolk any chance he got.

"I swear to you my daughter can make an entire feast out of just an apple and a slice of bread." he would boast to his friends at the local pub.
His friends would roll their eyes for they knew he was pulling their leg. However, the king's duke did not.

"My daughter can spin straw into gold." the miller was telling his friends.

"Impossible." said the duke

"I swear on my life, my dear Melissa can spin straw into gold"! the miller exclaimed pounding his fist on the table.

"Well if that's true, the king will want to hear about this." said the duke getting up to leave.

"But..I..well."

"Oh, and if we find out you were lying...it will be your life."

The miller walked home desperate to protect his daughter.

Melissa met her father at the door.

"Welcome home father, I've made beef stew, biscuits and fresh Apple Butter."

"Wait Wait hold everything."

"Huh, Pinkie Pie? what are you doing here, your not in the story yet."

"I know Apple Jack is Melissa so all the apple stuff makes sense, but where are the cupcakes, or the cookies or the chimy cherry chungas?

"The point is there poor and can't afford such luxeries."

"But they can afford apples?"

"Yes Meissa has an apple tree."

"ohhh, okie dokie lokie."

"Can I move on with the story now?"

"Sure, what's stopping you?"

Anyway, Melissa and her dad sat down to eat the hearty meal that she had prepared. They were just about to cut into their apple pie when there was a knock on the door.

"In the name of the king, open up. " called a guard.

Melissa got up, "Hold your horses...or er nevermind, just wait."

"No Melissa you can't open that!"

"But it's the king's guard I have to."

"If you don't open this door I will be forced to break it down."

Against her father's wishes, Melissa opens the door for the rainbow haired guard outside their door. The young guard walks inside up to the miller.

"You are under arrest for lying to the duke of Crystalin"

"What! father what did you say?" asked Melissa

"I..I..told some of my friends you could spin straw into gold and the duke overheard me."

"What in tarnation were you..I mean..oh please sir spare my father!" Melissa pleaded with the guard, who though looked rugged and harsh was kind and compassionate.

"Well, I suppose if you were able to prove to his majesty that you really could spin straw into gold, he'd let your father go."

"phew that's a relief, I mean thank you kind sir."

"But I must warn you, if you cannot spin straw into gold the king will have both of you killed, and you know that would be bad. though I would like some medivial stuff, I mean that would be awesome!"

"Ehem, Rainbow Dash..."

"Oh yeah, so you come with me..uh"

"Melissa."

"Seriously, that's the best the writer could come up with."

Hey! I'm saving all my better names for later stories, now stop complaining or I'm writting you as a rock in the next one!

"But a rock doesnt' do anything!"

Then I suggest you move on with it.

Fine Fine "So what do say Miss?" the guard turned towards Melissa.

"I have to try something, alright I'll go, who knows maybe I can spin straw into gold! and we need to move the story along anyway."

So the guard took Melissa to the castle where they were met by the duke.

"Soooo this is the girl who can spin straw into gold." he said eyeing Melissa carefully. "The King wants to see you right away."

He led Melissa past 2 butlers who were uh what are you guys doing?

"we're practicing our rapping bit"

but there isn't any raping in this there isn't music at all in this.

but we don't have anything else to do

Well, uh go clean something.

but that's the maids job!

I don't care, go now.

"Oh thank goodness I thought they'd never stop"

"Rarity, you and Fluttershy aren't supposed to appear until later"

"All right, I'm going!" but I still think I should have played the part of Melissa.

Uhuh well moving on!

The duke led Melissa past two butlers cleaning the bannister, two maids who were sweeping and the cook who was making what looked like blueberry muffins.

"Dang those smell great!"

"Aww thanks AppleJack"

Sure thing Derpy, see you later.

Ehem, try to stay in character guys please,

what about snips and snails?

what about them Derpy?

They're practicing their raping in my kitchen

What? but they aren't ugh I'm not getting paid enough for this

I thought you weren't getting paid.

Exactly.

The duke leads Melissa into the thone room where the king is there waiting on his throne a rather serious look on his face.

"Your majesty." said the duke bowing. He pushes Melissa in the side who immeditatly curtses.

"Uh yeah, what he said."

The king stood up and walked down towards Melissa eyeing her slightly as he did. "You can spin straw into gold."?

"Um apparently."

"Then you must prove it, follow me." He led Melissa to a large room filled with straw and a single spinning wheel.

"You have until tommrow morning to spin all this straw into gold. "

The duke grinned slightly, "but if you can't then you and your father will be" he slid his finger across his throat.

The nodded and left with the duke. Melissa heard the door locking behind them. She took some straw and tried to run it through the wheel.

"This is impossible! did the king seriously think."

So with nothing left to do Melissa fell into the pile of straw and cried.

excuse me what?

you fall down into that straw and cry your eyes out.

I don't really..

do it.

but

NOW!

"Oh what will I do now, my father.."

She's so busy crying she doesn't notice the flash of light as a strange pink creature appears.

"Why are you crying?"

Melissa looks up to see a strange sight, It was a small elf like creature who was entirely pink. She wore a dress that was made up of patches of diffent matrial. One section was blue with balloons, one was red with streamers, one white with polka dots and so on and so fourth. She had poofy pink hair and wore and small black top hat that only covered about half of her head with her ears sticking out underneath.

"Who are you"? asked Melissa

"Well I'm me of course!"

"uh me who?"

"Applejack you know me, it's Pinkie Pie."

Pinkie your not supposed to reveal your name to her!

but I didn't say my name for this it's

Pinkie shh."

alright miss narrator person.

"What are you doing here"? Melissa asked the strange creature.

"I'm here to help you! why are you crying?"

"I have to spin straw into gold."

"so?"

"Well I can't do that."

"I can. I'll do it for you."

"You will really? that would be great"

"but it's gonna cost you."

"I don't have much um.." Melissa looks down, oh how bout this necklace my father gave it to me."

"That will work" said the creature taking the necklace from her and sticking in a random pocket in her dress.

"Now I must get work but first

Sleep Sleep
close your eyes
until the sound
of the rooster cries

as she said those words Melissa eyes grew heavy and she slowly drifted off into a deep slumber.

The next morning as the rooster crowed Melissa woke up to a room filled with gold thread.

The king and the duke entered the room and were shocked at what they saw.

The king smiled and ran into the room, "gold! this is amazing! just think of all the help we can give the people with all of this!"

The duke gathered the thread in his hand, "This is unbelievable" he said

Melissa curtsied to the king. "Now that my work is done your majesty, I'm going home."

The king held is hand out, "No you must spin another night."

"but I can't"

"You have to, I demand it. You can sleep now but tonight you will spin another room full of straw," He turned to the duke, " go fill the large storage room with straw."

"right away your majesty." he turned to a maid walking by, "go fill the large storage room with straw." he told her pushing her along.

And so that night Melissa was locked in an even bigger room filled with straw and one spinning wheel. She tried once again to spin the straw into gold, but she just couldn't do it.

Seriously? who on earth could even do this? It's impossible!

Well me of course Apple Jack

Pinkie Pie, your not exactly supposed to be human you know

Guys stop getting out of character!

Sorry Twilight.

So the strange elf arrived once again...um Twilight get off the stage.

oh sorry

"What seems to be troubling you?" she asked

"I have to spin more straw into gold and I still can't do that!"

"Is that all? Well I can."

Melissa looked at the elf pleadingly, "please will you?"

"Yes, but I need some sort of payment. Don't know why normally I'd just do it for free since your my friend."

ahem Pinkie your not friends in this, you don't really know each other.

Melissa looked around finally handing over the ring that had been given to her by her late mother.

The elf slipped the ring onto her finger and began to spin the straw chanting as she did

sleep sleep
close your eyes
until the sound
of the rooster cries

The next morning, the King and the duke are both amazed to see the room full of gold thread. The duke ran over and ran his fingers through it.

"This will certainly keep the royal tailor busy for awhile." he said glancing over at the King

The king nodded and turned towards Melissa, "You may sleep for now, but tonight I want you to spin straw for me one more night."

"But sire I don't' know If I can." The King took Melissa's hands in his and gazed into her eyes,

"Please, If you succeed, I will make you my Queen." Melissa gasped, She blinked a few times to make sure she wasn't' dreaming, she wasn't
Melissa nodded her head and the King smiled releasing her hands. "Great I'll have one of my servants show take you to your room to rest."

With that a young maid with light pink hair led Melissa out of the room as two servants worked at gathering the gold thread.

"Will there be anything else madam?" the maid asked

"Um actually, can I ask you something?" the maid nodded her head. "What's the king like? I mean really like?" the maid pondered this for a moment.

"I suppose from what I've seen is that he is kind but firm. He will protect what he cares about no matter the cost, and if you want to know whether you should marry the king or not, well I think he likes you."

"really?" said Melissa blushing. The maid nodded her head and took her leave.

That night Melissa was put into another room filled with straw and a single spinning wheel. She waited around for the servants to leave and than called out, "Are you here little elf?"

"Well of course I am." a voice called behind her. The little elf layed on one of the piles of straw, "Need my help again?" she asked

"Yes, but I don't' have anything left to give you."

"A little gator told me the King plans to make you
his bride."

Yeah, so?"

"if I spin this straw, then I get your first born child." Melissa's eyes widen.

"What? but I don't even know if I'll have kids."

"Of course you will."

"and you know this how?"

"because I read ahead in the script, now come on so we can get to the best part." So, Melissa agreed to the elf's deal and once again the elf began to spin the straw while chanting

sleep sleep
close your eyes
until the sound
of the rooster cries

The next morning as soon as the King saw the golden thread, he took Melissa's hand and got down on one knee, "Will you be my Queen?"
he asked

"yes." Melissa said realizing that she had fallen in love with the King.

There wedding was beautiful and grand and everyone in the kingdom came to see their new queen.

"She is certainly beautiful."

"I heard she is the one who made all that golden thread"

A few years later, The king and queen were blessed with a beautiful baby girl. They named her Charlotte after Melissa's late mother. Melissa couldn't be happier and the king came to realize there were more important things than gold. Yep everything was perfect...but not for long.

One day, while the King was out recruiting some new guards, Melissa was in their room rocking Charlotte to sleep when all of a sudden a small wind whirled through the open window. The little elf had finally returned. Melissa looked in horror as she remembered her promise.

"Hi, I've come to collect." said the elf

"couldn't you take something else? I could give you jewels or fine silks or."

"Nope I already have enough of those all I want is what was promised me." she said reaching for the child.

"No!" Melissa screamed pulling Charlotte towards her. The elf looked a little shocked but soon regained her composure and spoke

"Looks like we've come to a problem, you owe me that child but you won't give her up, hm what to do." She paced around the room thinking. "I know we'll play a game!"

"a game?" Melissa asked confused

"Yes, if in three day you can guess my name, you may keep the child, if not I get to take her."

"Well um."

"or I could just take her right now." she said reaching out again.

"No!" Melissa said pulling back," I...I accept your challenge." she told the elf firmly.

"I will return tonight then." the elf said disappearing. As soon as he vanished the King appeared

"Darling, who was that you were talking to?" he asked

"I'll tell you everything but I fear you won't like me very much if you know the truth."

"I hope that isn't true." And so Melissa told the King about the little elf that had helped her and to her relief the King reassured her that he loved both her and their daughter.

"I don't have any idea what its' name could be!" she said.

"Don't worry I will help you." The king said and immediately got his best scholars to search the kingdom for odd and peculiar names. Later that afternoon they gave an entire list to Melissa.

That evening Melissa waited in her room, Charlotte sleeping peacefully in her crib right next to her. Melissa didn't' have to wait long as the elf appeared almost instantly.

"I'm back! So then, do you know my name?"

"Is your name Dulce?"

"Nope."

"Harmony?"

"Nu uh."

"Orion, Semaj, Jett?"

"No, nope and no."

Melissa continued giving off names, but the little elf just kept shaking its' head. When she ran out of names from her list the little elf laughed, "Well you have two more nights to guess my name. "she said disappearing into the night sky.

"All right this is taking a bit too long, so let's just skip to the last day. "

Alright, so Melissa was nervous for it was her last chance to correctly guess the creature's name.
She was about ready to give up and just hand her child over when two knights came in out of breath.

"Your majesty, We...just saw... pink...creature." exclaimed one of the guards.

Melissa's eyes widened, "And what happened?" she asked him.

" We were out on patrol, and we started to hear singing, we headed over to where the sound was coming from and saw this small pink elf creature dancing around a fire singing,

" chocolate gems it's all the same
she will never guess my name
I really really love this game
soon the princess I shall claim
chocolate gems it's all the same
Rumplestitskin is my name"

Melissa gasped at what she heard, "so it's Rumplestiltskin." she thought, "Now my child is safe."

That night, Melissa waited in her room, holding Charlotte. She looked around before calling out, "Little elf are you there?"

The little elf popped her head into the window, "Well duh, I told you I was going to be didn't I?" She plopped herself down on the bed, "So do you know my name?"

Meliisa placed her hand on her chin looking a mixture of wonder and worry. The little elf just smiled believing she had already won.

"Is your name Sarah?"

"no."

" Clara?"

"nope."

"Jessica"?

"not even close."

Melissa looked up and sighed, before she finally spoke

"oh well, sometimes you win sometimes you lose
but I suppose its just an excuse
it's all apart of your silly little game
Rumplestiltskin is your name!"

"WHO TOLD YOU THAT? WAS IT RAINBOW? RARITY? IT WAS TWILIGHT WASN'T IT"!! the little elf angrily stomped her feet screaming. Her eyes burning red with hatred and the realization that she had lost at her own game. A huge gust of wind blew in from the balcony and lifted up the little elf. She was blown far away never to be seen again... or at least so we thought.

A couple of years later, the young princess Charlotte was playing in the courtyard with her pony doll, when she dropped it into the well. Desperately, grabbing at the air as her doll fell deep into the well, her eyes filled with tears.

"Why are you crying?" asked a voice. Charlotte turned around to see a strange pink creature standing before her grinning.

And they all lived happily ever after...

"For now anyway."

"Pinkie Pie!""

"What? hmm what is this? ahh we lost a narrator. Oh well guess I have to finish,

The End.
