The next day, the seven ghosts said goodbye to Serena White as they grabbed their mining tools and head towards the mines to see if they could find anymore diamonds, gems, or gold. Serena White stayed at the cottage as she cooked up a large feast full of beef and vegetables, along with a few apple pies.

Meanwhile, at the castle, the evil queen went into her secret spell room near the dungeon to dip a candy red apple into a black cauldron full of green liquid called poison.

Then, she placed a pinch of dust, a frog’s tongue, deadly nightshade, and a few strands of her ebony black hair into a dark violet cauldron full of warm water. She stirred it, placed it into a black goblet, and took a huge gulp. Suddenly, her hair turned a stone grey, her purple pupils turned black, her back arched, her skin turned wrinkly, and her purple gown turned into a black cloak with a hood that partially covered her hair. Even her voice turned raspy.

“Finally, my transformation is complete,” said the evil queen, now older. “And this time, Serena White will die and I will be fairest in the land!"

She cracking voice burst into evil laughter as she grabbed a few red, yellow, and green apples (including the poisonous one) and placed them into a dark brown basket. Trying not to be seen by the guards, she took the path to the castle garden where she can use the vines on the castle wall to escape. When the evil queen walked into the garden, she saw that the prince was sitting at the fountain looking worried.

“What are you doing here?” she asked the prince as she walked towards him.

“Oh, I very sorry for trespassing,” the prince apologized nervously. “Have you seen Princess Serena White? I haven’t seen nor heard of her in two days.”

“She’s very ill,” lied the evil queen. “Would you like me to escort you to her bedroom to see her?”

“That would be lovely,” the prince’s worried look faded into a smile. “Thank you very much, madam.”

“You’re welcome, deary.”

The evil queen trailed behind the prince and told him the directions he should go. She then took out a dagger she hid in her black cloak and stroke it through the prince’s back, making him fall down the carpeted floor dead with his blood staining everywhere. Then, she into the village to visit the hunter and used the same dagger she used on the prince and stabbed him as well.
