At the castle, the evil queen sat anxiously in her throne in the great room, waiting for the hunter, whom she hired to help her with her scheme, to arrive with Serena White’s heart.

“What took you so long?” the evil queen asked impatiently when the hunter finally showed up in the great room and noticed him carrying a fancy purple box as he bowed to her.

“I apologize, your majesty,” the hunter lifted his head to look at the evil queen’s face. “After I killed Serena White, I wanted to clean out her heart before you received it.”

“That’s reasonable,” the evil queen agreed as the hunter handed her the box. She lifted the box with her black finger-nailed hands to glance at the heart.

“It looks so delicious, it must be immediately cooked and served for dinner and since you helped me get rid of my stepdaughter, would you like to have this heart with me tonight?” the evil queen offered the hunter as she shot at him a grin.

“I would love to, your majesty,” the hunter smiled nervously.

That evening, the evil queen and the hunter had Serena White heart stew with baked bread and red wine. Before she went to bed, the evil queen looked into her mirror and asked, “Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who’s the fairest one of all?”

The face of the mirror appeared and replied, “In this land, she shines so bright. She’s the fairest one and she’s Serena White.”

The evil queen’s faded into anger. “You mean, that little twit is still alive?”

“Unfortunately,” the mirror replied. “The heart that you ate for dinner is a heart of a pig.”

“I don’t care what I’ve eaten right now,” the evil queen snapped. “Where is she?”

The mirror’s face was replaced with Serena cooking dinner while the seven ghosts and the skinless animals help clean outside and inside of the cottage. The evil queen recognized the seven dwarf ghosts, especially the dopey-looking one (whom she remembered casting a non-talking curse on him).

“Why do these seven buffoons look familiar?” asked the evil queen with curiosity.

The cottage cleaning image faded away and the face of the mirror appeared.

“You murdered them a long time ago at the mines and stole their treasures, remember?” the mirror reminded her.

“Oh yes, I do remember,” said the evil queen. “Well, I’m exhausted. I have a long day tomorrow.”
