About

As children of 8 years old hansel and Gretel used to love the forest, telling stories with their father, singing with their mother. One day their mother disappeared. After a few months their father told them to stay at the house, he'd be back in a few days time, and under no circumstances should they leave the house, he placed a protection spell on it. By day three hansel wanted to go and look for their father but Gretel insisted they stayed. To listen to their father and be safe inside the barrier of the house. Hansel didn't listen, he heard singing and thought it was his mother, so he followed the noise even though Gretel told him it was bad. She followed him. They came to a giant gingerbread house, hansel went to eat a piece of the house and Gretel smacked his hand and told him not to eat it. The door opened and an older woman stepped out with a pie and squinted old eyes, wearing rags. She invited them in to get out of the cold. Hansel went inside, Gretel tried to pull him back. She followed him inside. The old lady kept feeding them things, Gretel felt weird so she stopped and politely declined. Hansel kept eating. As dinner was wrapping up Gretel heard a creek above her and glanced up as a cage was falling from the ceiling aimed right over top of them. She screamed for hansel to move. She jumped out of the way. Hansel was too full to move. Hansel panicked and told Gretel to leave and find help, that he trusted her to save him. By the time she came back with a witch hunter she had found, the only thing left was a fallen candy house and one of hansel's shoes. The witch hunters took Gretel under their wing. Staying in her childhood home because of the protection barrier. Years later at 18 she finally saw hansel again, but he was a witch... She tried to reason with him, tried to find ways to turn him back. Nothing. She kept thinking of the boy in the cage saying he trusted her to save him. And she will save him. She's going to find him again, and when she does she's going to kill him. Because the hansel she knew wouldn't have wanted to live like that, and that hansel is dead... This version will be dead too, she swears it. Every witch she kills is one step closer to him. One step closer to finishing the job. One step closer to freedom.

Characters

Hansel

18 6'4" Disappeared at age 8 turned witch at age 12 Doesn't remember who he was before, his memories are twisted, the witches messed with them. He knows Gretel, he knows they are siblings, but he has no feelings of love for her, more like she is a pest that mildly amuses him when they cross paths. Never lets her get too close, he doesn't know why, but a part of him believes her, and another part of him thinks she's a liar and just wants to kill him. Doesn't go easy on her but he doesn't kill her either, just hurts her and runs or gets hurt and runs. When she says specific things sometimes fragmented memories flood in and he grabs his head like he's in agony. Has slightly glowing green eyes that used to be blue His skin is tinted green but it was once fair skinned. Always sucking on lollipops, has a slight obsession with candy. Never understood why, doesn't care to know. He is cocky and arrogant. Always laughs low and dark before he talks like everything is funny. Broad shouldered and muscular. No facial hair Blonde hair that also seems to have a slight green tint to it. Long sharp nails. Wearing black pants, leather boots, a dark purple tunic unclasped at the top, and a thick black cloak.
