Inside Snow's memory.
A six year old Snow was busy riding her bicycle for she was already late. Her Mother had told her not to stay outside for so long but being an inquisitive child she decided to search the woods for the so called "wolves" the kids at school used to bicker about.
She didn't see a big rock placed in front of her bicycle, tripped over the stone and tumbled along with it into the bushes at the roadside.
"See, I told you she would fall, she is always so clumsy, such a butterbrain" A ginger haired kid said to his friend, both laughing at Snow who was busy trying to dust the dirt off her dress. She glared at the two boys furiously, they will make her late.
"Oh' i'm shaking, Are you gonna report me to your Mother. She is probably tired of treating a cursed child like you". The other kid bullied her with words snickering with his ginger haired friend.
Snow felt a huge surge of anger course through her veins after hearing what the kid called her. Like she had suddenly turned to a different person, her golden eyes shined with danger and the flames on right face shined brightly, she raised her right hand and pointed it to the boy who called her a ' cursed child '
The boy instantly fell to the ground, groaning in pain, he felt as if his body was on fire.
" p- please s-stop , I beg you, we won't do that again, I promise". The ginger haired kid begged in fear, he didn't know what to do at that moment.
"Snow!
"Stop!
A loud shout from a woman with sun kissed skin, long brown hair, emerald eyes broke Snow out of her possessed state, She stumbled into the woman's arms.
"M-mum" she whimpered to the woman before she became unconscious.
The woman who we have come to know as Snow's Mother snapped her fingers and everywhere froze. She whispered something under her breath and snapped her fingers back.
" I'm sorry ma'am we were just fooling around we didn't mean to cause any harm" the two boys apologized, they didn't remember what Snow did a few moments earlier. They scurried off and left an unconscious Snow with her Mother.
************************************************
" Mum, am I really cursed? I don't know why I did that to that boy, I didn't mean to hurt him.....Mum am I evil? Snow asked her mum, she felt scared of what she was.
" No my dear, you're just special.... Don't let Anybody tell you otherwise. Now sleep" Her Mother cooed, She repeated what she did to the boys earlier.

Another scene in Snow's memory.
Snow helped her Mother to set up the tent for she was happy her mother took her camping for the first time like the other kids at school. She tried making a campfire,and she matched two stones together like she has seen in the movies.
She got tired of the stones, they didn't do what she wanted. she threw them over the dried sticks in frustration and instantly the sticks caught fire.
She stumbled back in surprise and fear, her little mind tried to process what happened.
"Snow, did you do that ? Her mother asked whilst moving closer to her.
"I don't know how I was able to do it mum it just j-just .....I don't know mum" she stammered while burying her head closer to her mum's chest.
"It's okay Snow... You'll be fine" Her mother patted her hair, sighing dejectedly.

Another scene in Snow's memory.
Snow sat in between her mother's legs, listening to her mother explaining to her something she has never heard before.
"Some of us were born with incredible powers, we are different from other humans. Me and you were born with incredible gifts Snow, A lot of bad people will want to harm us because of it which is why we need to keep it a secret.
There are other creatures out there living in the midst of ordinary humans but never be surprised no matter what you see or who you meet.
Snow nodded.
"So it's not a curse? What about my unusual birthmark? What are we mum? Snow questioned.
"I'm a witch but you are something greater Snow, You are not a curse. You are just like your father ..... Very, very special. Her Mother replied with a sad smile at the mention of her late husband.
Snow turns her head swiftly to her mum in excitement " Father was just like me? She squeals, liking the fact that her and her lost Father shared something in common.
" Yes Snow..... He was just like you". Her Mother answered absentmindedly.

Another scene in Snow's memory.
Snow sits in the middle of the room Indian style, facing her mother who was also sitting on the floor, Indian style. She snaps her finger and an already opened book lands on Snow's lap.
" To learn how to protect yourself and those you love, you need to study all what is written In this book and practice with me" Her Mother explains.
Snow looks down at the book then back up at her mother . The wordings looked strange to her.
She frowned
" But I can't read what's in this book ... It's not in English mum " Snow complained.
" look deeper child"
Snow squints her eyes, reads the book with more concentration and finds herself understanding the writings in the book.
They both spent weeks learning and practicing spells from the book until she was sure Snow had learnt what she needed to learn.
" Remember Snow never use your gift to harm an innocent person or Everyone you care about will leave you" Her mother said to her sternly on the last day of training. Snow nodded and promised to use her gifts to protect people.
