"Once Upon a Time in the place called,
"Winters Land."
"There was a very poor family nestled deep in the woods."
"Family of three a mother a father and a child."
...
"The man was a Woodcutter and barely made enough wage to survive and care for his family."
...
'Welcome back all my dear fans here at Fanstory!'
'And, this is Annie!'
'Annie Oakley!'
'The Greatest Female Sharp-shooter West of this Dem, Der, Mississippi!'
'And, to tell you the truth.'
'I have no idea?'
...
'Why Doctor Ricky summoned me to come back from the past?'
'Especially during these darker days with some kind of Chinese virus thing going around?'
'And, I'll tell you something!'
'If it gets near me?'
'I'm going to shoot it right between the eyes!'
...
'Well, I see that Ricky has written his first March Fairytale for the "Shed a Tears"
'Series of books that are being published by Cecile Sands from Xilibris.'
...
'So, he told me this was a true fairy tale based on a real fairy tale with Cinderella and her lost slipper.'
'So, let's see what he's got in store for us?'
'And, as I narrate and as you review.'
'Be sure to come back Fanstorians for...
"The Lesson of the Day!"
'Thank you!'
Annie...
...
'And, thank you Annie for your wonderful presentation!'
'And, I'm sorry for bringing you back from the past during these darker days.'
'But hopefully this fairytale will bring us a little bit of Hope for much better days?'
'Okay let's get back to this!'
...
'And yes, for that family?'
"The Once Upon a Time's?"
"Were Once Upon a Sad Times"
'But, they had a daughter named Bella!'
...
'And Bella was a curious child.'
'And, she played alone never made a single friend.'
'And, of course way back then?'
'Everybody was home-schooled but you see?'
'Bella was no fool and as she grew older?'
'She got much more bolder!'
'And, she did not want to live this way.'
...
'Yes, the years did past and she ran away?'
'For she figured she had no reason to die that way.'
'So at Sixteen?'
'She packed up what measly belongings she had and hit the trail!'
'To possibly prevail?'
'And, out of "Winter's Land"
...
'For days and days and days...
'She traveled, living on whatever streams she could thirst... 'Whatever berries that we're growing and birthed...
'And, finally knowing?'
'She came to a clearing at the end of The Glen...
'And, she collapsed!'
...
'She lay like a Sleeping of Beauty awaiting the kiss?'
'Perhaps her duty?'
'Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming, until...
...
'I wonder if she is okay?'
He says to himself.
'I walked these trails and I hunt these trails and now I see this sweet little unconscious being?'
'All so in need...
'All so, so, pleading?'
'And, right before my very eyes?'
I'm seeing!'
...
"She slowly opens her eyes and to her surprise?"
"She sees this kind, young, and concerned man!'
'Standing with a bow?'
"And, wondering what had happened?"
"And where was she from?'
'To where did she want to go?"
"And he says...
...
'I am just a young man and I do not seem to understand?'
'Why you're here before me?'
"And, she replies...
...
'I'm only sixteen.'
'if you know what I mean and I ran away.'
'And, I could no longer live any longer that way!'
'We had nothing, a Woodcutters daughter?'
'But no!'
'I was not the son!'
'Instead?'
'He had me!"
'But...
'We were so, so, poor!:
'And, were barely surviving!'
'And, I did not want to soon die.'
...
"With a tear in his eye he thought to himself...
'Oh Me Oh My!'
'There must be a reason this day?'
...
"So they sat by the stream at the end of the Glen...
"And, slowly became friends...

"Bella and her new friend?"
"Together were learning about life?"
"But not yet man and wife but could that ever be?"
"And you see?"
"That's going to be up to Doctor Ricky!"
