The Celestic Warriors' spaceship hovered above a breathtaking landscape, blanketed in an endless sea of white.
Snowflakes glistened as they danced through the crisp air, and the towering pines were frosted like glass sculptures.
Inside the control room, Jim adjusted the monitor, studying the world below.
Jim: "Snow-White's world... Looks like we're in for another fairy tale adventure."
Naomi: (smiling) "Hopefully a peaceful one this time."
Mike scoffed, arms crossed.
Mike (in a bored tone): "You think anything's gonna be peaceful with those monsters lurking around?"
Heidi: (grinning) "Besides, I wouldn't mind a little action. I've got some stress to blow off."
Despite their bravado, both of them still bore the emotional scars of the previous battles.
Though their bond had strengthened, the fear of losing each other remained-something they refused to acknowledge.
The ship landed softly on the snowy plains, the hatch opening with a hiss.
As the four stepped out, a gust of chilly wind brushed against them.
_ _ _
The snow crunched under their feet as they ventured into the wintry forest. It was eerily serene. A delicate silence lingered, broken only by the occasional whisper of the wind.
Then, through the mist, they saw her.
A young woman with skin as pale as the snow, lips red as a rose, and hair black as ebony. She wore a simple blue and yellow dress, yet there was an undeniable grace about her.
Snow White.
She turned towards them, startled but not frightened.
Snow White: (politely) "Oh! Travelers? Welcome to the forest. What brings you here?"
Naomi stepped forward with a warm smile.
Naomi: "We're just passing through. We heard stories about this world and wanted to see it for ourselves."
Snow White nodded, her gentle smile unwavering.
Snow White: "Then you're more than welcome. But do be cautious-the Queen's spies roam these woods."
The Celestic Warriors decided to accompany Snow White on her journey. She explained that she had recently fled from the Evil Queen, who was jealous of her beauty and sought her death.
The dark tale played out exactly as Naomi had described from the original story. However, knowing the threats that lurked, they stayed alert.
As they walked, Heidi couldn't help but admire Snow White's optimism.
Heidi: "Even after everything the Queen did to you, you're still so... cheerful. How do you do it?"
Snow White's smile softened.
Snow White: "Because I believe kindness will always find a way. No matter how much darkness there is, there's always light if you choose to see it."
Her words lingered, causing Heidi to glance at Mike. He caught her gaze, quickly looking away, flustered.
Jim and Naomi exchanged knowing looks.
Soon, they arrived at a quaint little cottage, nestled within the snowy woods. Smoke puffed from the chimney, and the sound of laughter echoed inside.
The door creaked open, and out popped a curious face - one of the Seven Dwarfs.
Grumpy: "Who goes there?!"
Snow White giggled.
Snow White: "It's me, Snow White! And I've brought guests."
The dwarfs quickly welcomed the group, though their suspicions lingered on Mike and Heidi.
Doc: "Hmm, strange clothes you two are wearing. Travelers from afar, are you?"
Mike grinned, attempting to act casual.
Mike: "You could say that. But don't worry, we're not here to cause trouble."
Heidi smirked.
Heidi: "Unless someone asks for it."
The dwarfs exchanged unsure glances, but Snow White's reassurance eased their doubts.
They spent the evening enjoying the warmth of the cottage, with laughter and stories filling the air. For a moment, it was as if the vampire family had never existed.
Meanwhile in the depths of Vampire Family's Spaceship, Alucard seethed.
The previous loss had left him humiliated. His plan to corrupt Mike and Heidi had failed.
He slammed his fist against a wall of swirling darkness.
Alucard: "Enough of this foolishness!"
A dark energy pulsed around him, his crimson eyes glowing with malice.
Alucard: "If they refuse to break, then I will shatter them myself!"
Summoning his power, Alucard prepared to unleash devastation.
Alucard: "Snow White's world will be their grave."
The wicked laughter of the dark Prince echoed, promising the destruction to come.
Lilith from a distance smirked looking at him. "How unfortunate! I feel bad for those kids. They have no idea whom they are dealing with this time."
Back to the story...
Snow fell gently outside the cottage, the soft crackling of the fireplace creating a warm atmosphere.
Mike and Heidi sat across from each other, pretending not to glance at one another, their lingering blushes betraying their defiance.
The dwarfs, having grown fond of the Celestic Warriors, laughed and shared stories. Snow White's gentle laughter brought light to the room, though Naomi and Jim couldn't shake the feeling of looming danger.
Jim: (whispering to Naomi) "The Vampire family won't let this world stay peaceful. I can feel it."
Naomi nodded.
Naomi: "We have to be ready. But until then, let them enjoy this moment."
Snow fell gently across the forest, blanketing the ground in a shimmering white.
Despite the bitter cold, warmth radiated from within the quaint cottage, where laughter and joy echoed.
Mike, Heidi, Jim, and Naomi sat with Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, the weight of past battles momentarily lifted.
They shared stories, ate hearty meals, and exchanged smiles as though the darkness of Alucard had never touched this world.
But deep within their hearts, both Mike and Heidi remained cautious.
_ _ _
The next morning, Snow White ventured into the woods to gather berries, accompanied by Heidi. The young princess hummed a sweet tune, the cheerful melody lifting the spirits around her.
But as they reached a small clearing, a hunched figure in a dark cloak emerged from the shadows.
A withered voice croaked.
Old Woman: "Dear child, would you like a taste of my finest apple?"
Snow White, despite Heidi's uneasy gaze, smiled kindly.
Snow White: "Why, thank you! How generous of you."
The old woman's wrinkled face twisted into a sinister grin.
Heidi stepped forward, grabbing Snow White's arm.
Heidi: "Wait! You shouldn't-"
But it was too late. Snow White bit into the gleaming red apple.
A sharp gasp escaped her lips as the color drained from her face. Her body trembled, and she collapsed into Heidi's arms.
Heidi: (panicked) "Snow White! No!"
The figure disappeared into the shadows, her cackling laughter echoing through the woods.
After almost an hour...
The dwarfs' cottage became a scene of sorrow.
Snow White's lifeless body rested within a glass coffin, her hands delicately placed over her chest. The tears of the dwarfs pooled at their feet as they gazed upon her pale face.
Mike, fists clenched, remained silent. Naomi held back her tears, watching the heartbreak consume the atmosphere.
Jim whispered, almost pleading.
Jim: "The prince... he'll come, right? He has to."
And so, they waited.
Days passed, and finally, the prince arrived.
A noble figure clad in royal attire, his sorrow evident as he knelt before the coffin.
Prince: (softly) "My beloved Snow White..."
He lowered his head, his trembling hands pressing against the glass.
But just as they began to believe in the prince's hope-
The sky darkened.
A blood-red hue washed over the clouds, and an ominous wind howled through the forest. The dwarfs huddled in fear as the ground trembled beneath them.
Then, from the shadows, a twisted figure emerged.
Alucard.
Draped in flowing darkness, his crimson eyes gleamed with malice. His sinister smirk widened as he gazed upon the scene before him.
Alucard: (mocking) "A fairy tale's ending? How quaint."
Mike immediately stepped forward, his body brimming with protective rage.
Mike: "Get out of here, Alucard!"
Heidi: (snarling) "Haven't you done enough?"
But Alucard simply raised a single hand.
Alucard: "Enough? Oh no... I've only just begun."
With a cruel flick of his fingers-
BOOM.
The glass coffin shattered. A shockwave of dark energy erupted, sending Snow White's body flying. Her frail form struck the snowy ground, unmoving.
Heidi: (screaming) "SNOW WHITE!!!"
Her shriek echoed through the valley as tears welled in her eyes. She sprinted toward her, but Mike grabbed her arm, keeping her from rushing headlong into the swirling darkness.
Mike: "Heidi, wait!"
The prince, consumed by desperation, charged forward. His trembling hands reached for Snow White.
But Alucard's twisted laughter rang through the air.
Alucard: "You thought a simple kiss would break the curse?"
With a snap of his fingers-
BOOM.
A searing explosion engulfed the prince. Fire and smoke consumed him, and when the flames subsided, there was nothing left.
Heidi: (voice trembling) "He... he killed them both."
Mike: (his eyes narrowing) "Alucard..."
Their fury ignited.
Their aura flared, brilliant yet burning with vengeance.
They felt the weight of every battle, every loss, and every tear. Alucard had gone too far.
After a few tense moments...
The sky churned with dark clouds, a crimson hue painting the snowy landscape.
The remains of Snow White's shattered coffin lay scattered, and the prince's body was gone - consumed by the flames of Alucard's twisted power.
Mike and Heidi stood trembling, their fists clenched, their bodies aching. But it wasn't the physical pain that burned within them - it was the unbearable rage.
Mike: (voice trembling as he panted) "You killed them... You killed Snow White and the prince."
Heidi: (gritting her teeth, huffing) "We'll never forgive you!"
Alucard, draped in shadows, smirked as if savoring their anguish.
Alucard: (mocking) "Such passionate hatred. Delicious."
His eyes gleamed with malice.
Alucard: "Come, little warriors. Entertain me."
Mike charged head-on as he transformed. His water magic surged from his wand like a fierce torrent.
Heidi transformed and followed, cracking the ground by smacking her meat hammer hard sending gigantic shockwaves to Alucard.
Mike: "Aqua Tempest!"
Heidi: "Giganto Quake!"
The combined attacks roared toward Alucard, threatening to consume him. But with a mere wave of his hand, a barrier of swirling darkness absorbed their power. The energy dissipated as though it were nothing.
Alucard: (smirking) "Pathetic."
He retaliated, unleashing a dark blast that tore through the snow, sending the warriors sprawling.
Mike crashed into a tree detransforming automatically, the force knocking the air from his lungs. Heidi skidded across the ice, blood dripping from her forehead leading her to detransform.
Heidi: (panting) "He's... too strong."
But they refused to surrender.
Mike struggled to his feet, wiping the blood from his face. His determination ignited once more.
Mike: "We're not done yet!"
He transformed and shifted to lightning magic, sending streaks of electricity crackling through the air. Bolts of golden light struck Alucard, illuminating the battlefield.
Simultaneously, Heidi transformed and stormed toward him, using her immense strength to drive her battle forks down with incredible force.
Heidi: (shouting) "Take this!"
The ground shattered beneath her blow, causing the earth to quake. For a moment, Alucard stumbled.
Alucard's laughter echoed.
Alucard: (mocking) "Did you think you could match the power of the Main Family?"
He raised his hand, and the air itself twisted. Shadows lashed out like tendrils, wrapping around Mike and Heidi. The constricting force crushed them, pain searing through their bodies.
Alucard: (grinning) "You are nothing but insects."
He launched them high into the air, then with a flick of his wrist -
BOOM.
A dark blast slammed into them, sending them hurtling to the ground. They crashed into the snow, leaving behind a deep crater.
Mike coughed violently, blood leaking out of his Warrior suit. Heidi lay motionless, her breathing ragged.
Still, Mike dragged himself toward her. His trembling hand reached for hers.
Mike: (whispering) "Heidi... stay with me."
Her eyes fluttered open, dull with exhaustion.
Heidi: (weakly) "I'm... sorry, Mike."
But there was no time for regrets.
Alucard descended slowly, his crimson gaze glowing with satisfaction. The darkness around him pulsed - a terrifying reminder of the sheer gap in their power.
Alucard: (smirking) "THIS is the power of the Main Family. The legacy of darkness that no light can extinguish."
He gathered a mass of crackling, malevolent energy in his hands. The overwhelming pressure threatened to crush everything beneath it.
Alucard: "Now perish - and become part of the void."
Mike and Heidi: (weakly) "No..."
The blast was unleashed.
BOOM.
A blinding explosion engulfed the battlefield, shaking the entire world.
As the smoke cleared, the snow lay scorched and shattered. A vast crater marked the spot where the warriors once stood.
No movement.
No sound.
Only silence.
Alucard hovered above the desolation, a victorious grin plastered across his face.
Alucard: (mocking) "Such a waste. But at least you were amusing."
He gazed into the crimson sky, satisfied.
Alucard: "And now, the tale of Snow White ends... in tragedy."
Assuming his enemies to be dead, he vanished into the swirling void, the shadows consuming him.
