“Thank you so much, Hope!” Zheng He cried. “Good Luck” Hope said with a wink. Zheng He set off at once. “Let’s Go!” Zheng He bellowed to his men. Once they reached The Magic Kingdom, they marched into the castle. “Where is Fairy Godmother?” He asked. “Hello,” said a soft voice behind him, “What do you want?” Zheng He turned to see a beautiful young woman looking at him. The minute Zheng He saw her, he fell in love with her, but first, he had to ask his question. “My dear lady,” Zheng He said, “Where is the Fairy Godmother?” The woman laughed, “ I am the Fairy Godmother!” She said. “Would you like to stay in the palace since you don’t have a cottage or house?” “Of course!” Zheng He answered, “Thank you.” After a year in Fairy Kingdom. “Fairy Godmother, will you marry me?” Zheng He asked. “Yes!” Fairy Godmother answered with a smile. They had been secretly dating over the year, so they already knew each other well. And so, Fairy Godmother and Zheng He got married the next day. One year after their wedding, Fairy Godmother had a baby daughter, Zheng He was overjoyed, and they named her Holly. One day, Fairy Godmother woke to hear the sound of war. “What is going on?” she wondered. Zheng He, who had also woken up at that moment, was also as confused as Fairy Godmother. When they looked at the window, they discovered that an army of nine thousand men had attacked The Magic Kingdom earlier this morning and all the fairies were trying to fight them off. In a flash, Zheng He gathered his men and Fairy Godmother summoned all the armies of Fairytale Land. Together, they all charged towards the army and fought them. Fairy Godmother quietly went to check on Holly, but to her horror, she was not in her room! Suddenly, a horned witch appeared in front of her, and tossed Holly out of the window to the forest. She cackled, “You will never see Holly again!” she cried evilly. “GIVE HER BACK NOW, MORINA!” Fairy Godmother yelled as loud as she could, “NOW!!!” But Morina just laughed and said, “Just go get her yourself then.” Then, she disappeared in a flash. Thankfully, Fairy Godmother did not have to. A minute later, another witch appeared with baby Holly in her arms. “Thank you so, so, so, much, Hagetta!” Fairy Godmother said gratefully to the witch, “What can I do for you?”
