Mother Ghost and the Dark Mystic Forest (Chelsea's Bedtime Story)

Once upon a time there was a dark mystic forest full of all kinds of creatures from reapers and zombies to banshees and giant man eating spiders
However one creature in this terrifying forest stood amongst the rest tho in all honesty she wasn't a creature
She was like the queen the forest she ruled the different beings and promised them protection from the outside world if they stayed and refused to harm her
She loved them all no matter their looks or horrific talent
She had a dark house built high on a hill in the middle of the forest
Did I mention she wasn't alone?
She had two little girls one they called Red the other Grettle tho those weren't their real name
They traveled the forest fearlessly skipping and playing with all the creatures
Tho they aspired one day to leave the forest to adventure other lands they were to happy in this dark world with their mother and her followers
One day the girls went missing
Their mother was terrified her daughters were her world
She looked from every edge of the forest for her two girls
She called their names for hours never getting a single reply
Then the creatures saw something they've never seen from their queen...she began to cry
No one had seen her Red or Grettle since they left their mothers house to visit Barry the Zombie (yes zombies have names)
The distressed mother quickly went to question Barry
He said he hadn't seen them he even still had the sugar cookies he made them the night before...he offered the cookies to the queen
She took them (they were secretly her favorite... Barry makes amazing cookies:3 for a zombie at least)
She thanked Barry and went on her way
She distressfully trudged home getting her hopes up every time she heard the creature children playing amongst themselves in the forest
She feared she'd never see her girls again
Once she reached the door step she saw a color too familiar...red...
It was a piece of little Red's dress
She pulled it from a thorn bush (one of many that surrounded the house)
On the other side she saw something else she knew
Climbing over the bush she realized it was Grettle's ribbon for her hair
"A trail" she thought
Next was a doll with pins shoved in its body
Then a monster toy with sharp teeth
She knew someone had to have taken her daughters
Her daughters wouldn't have lost these items any other day
Terrified of how she may find them she walked on oh so paranoid
Still finding pieces left by the joyice girls
Then she found maybe the worst thing ever
On any other day it wouldn't have bothered her but her daughters were missing and now she sees blood
Everywhere like something had been massacre with no trace as to what it was
Suspecting the complete loss of her daughters she cried more
Knowing nothing was left for her without her darling girls she took her life leaving a single letter
The letter was to be published and sent to all residents of the forest it told them of the girls' disappearance and how the mother thought she found them
If it turned out she was wrong the girls would have option to take on as queen if not the queen knew they'd be safe
(No humans would dare walk even close to the mystic forest for fear of death anyway they'd never know the loss of the queen)
All the creatures left something in remembrance of the queen and her daughters
But who was to know the girls were fine
An hour after they went home..they'd fallen asleep in a small cave
They had left their stuff outside their house unattended I
supposed something had the means to drag it away
Tho this is a bedtime story so it has a happy ending
See when the queen died she didn't exactly die
She lives in a dark mystic forest full of anything from reapers and zombies to banshees and giant man eating spiders
She became one of her many subjects but not a flesh eating zombie or blood sucking vampire or even Frankenstein's monster...
She became who they call Mother ghost
Forever ruling and protecting the forest watching her girls grow
And they lived happily ever after...the end
