A Real Fairy Tale - The Treasure Hunt

She was ready. Her mind was set. She took up the map and glanced through it. The road ahead is gonna be too tough. But nothing would deter, for she's on a journey to find the treasure.

She tread along with pain, often stumbling on the stones and thorns. But she really enjoyed it. The desert heat made her weary and her body was covered up with the slush of rain forest.

Finally she made it. After all the struggles she entered there. In the dark lay a rusted treasure chest. She walked slowly to it. She picked it up and held it close to her chest. She could feel the heart beats.

It was hard to open it. But she cut it open. She saw a bleeding heart inside. From the cuts emanated a bright light which made her shine. She looked so beautiful covered in it. She became as fresh as a kid. She was all lost in the gleam. She took it up and kissed it.

Suddenly the heart turned into a man. He took her in his arms and went to the nearby stream. He then washed her clean in the flowing waters. He covered her in his blanket. She felt so cozy. He then took her to places and showed the beauty of life around. They were playing like kids. He bent forward and she climbed upon him. She saw a shining star above. She reached to it and took it in her hands.

She ran away from him and hid herself. She was amused by the star. She kept it close to her heart. And the star turned out to be a handsome man. And her search ended there.
