Fic prompt for Ever After High(EAH)

Apple screws up ✨ a lot ✨, enough that everyone who found out hates her and the authorities want to put her in mirror jail. She's ran off to winterland, getting frightened and mocked by local villains, and to preserve her reveredness in some sense she's using her dark magic to wormhole people to winterland who do not know, and tries to form a group with them, telling them she also mysteriously got wormholed there.

After she gets everyone she needs she'd want a way to cut off winterland from the rest of the world.

OK, START!

Apple white didn't know she'd been recorded, if she'd known she wouldn't have- 😟, she-, she didn't think it'd be that bad, raven isn't choosing her destiny, the world itself could fall apart, and- and-, "she manipulated me, she knew that I was, that people could start disappearing if raven didn't do her destiny, she promised me that I'd be poisoned if I went with her on whatever she was doing, and it's not like i could put her back, i was under her thumb, she's the evil queen, she knows all kinds of sorcery."

"Apple white, you knew that she was dangerous, yet you never reached out to the authorities, she did so much damage last time she was out! It was reckless, careless, and to allow her to access your fellow classmates!"

"Now now, it's clear she was in distress, her reasoning is-."

"Obscene, you have let your students run a muck long enough, I'm seeking the council of knights."

"You can't"

"I can"

"I can and I will, I have every right to."

Apple could believe what she was hearing, everything that she wanted to avoid, things had become so real, too real.

"I promise, things can go back to how they were, I won't do it again"

"How many times has she been let off the hook? 😡 You just crossed so many lines, you can't just "take it back" with something so serious, ... guards, detain her for the trial."

"T-Trial, detain." 😨

The guards sluggishly move towards her, " m'lady, the holding carriage is here, think of it like a waiting room, the holding building, I don't think you're a bad kid, (grims brother frowns at that), the evil queen is so manipulative and sinister, can't imagine it can be easy resisting her brainwashing."

He took her by the arm, not roughly, more for show than much else, she could break out of it just by spinning, not that she'd try.

They ushered her closer and closer to the wagon, and the thought of the trial lingered, she looked around, and saw only scowling from her peers, they'd seen the video, they knew she kept it quiet to save herself from trouble, and since it's all out, she'll be in trouble for ever after. No one will ever love her again, not after this, all her friends, accept those who haven't watched the video, that's the only people still on her side, and they won't last, the video is spreading through the kingdoms. If I get into that carriage I'll never see the light of day again.
