Halves of the Lightning
Part 1
The Awakening
It was midday and Snow White had just come from the forest picking some lovely flowers that she would take to the dwarfs’ cottage later on before they got home. As she entered the courtyard, she was hoping that she wouldn’t run into her evil stepmother the Queen. Snow White didn’t know why the queen was so jealous of her, so she tried to stay out of her way as much as possible. Snow White entered the castle and walked east to where the kitchen was to get a pot to put the flowers in when she stopped in front of the large door that lead to the queen’s lab. Snow White’s been up there before and the Queen gave her such a tongue lashing and told her to stay away from there or else. Snow White thought about that for a moment and then looked around to see if anybody was there and then opened the door to go the stone stairs to the lab. Once in the lab, she marveled at all of the glass bottles with different color liquids and powders in them on the shelves, and the counter by the west wall full of tubes and other things, and also a cauldron in the far north corner. But what really caught her eyes was stand in front of the only window in the lab that held a very large book. Snow White went over to read, but the stand was a little too tall for her, so she found a small bench, dragged it over and stepped up to the stand. Now she can read the book better and started to flip the pages, reading all the spells and incantations. She didn’t know what some of the words said, mainly because it was written in different languages, but nonetheless continued looking. She finally got to a page that had pictures in it and saw drawings of a man, some fishes and birds and snakes, and some of water and boats. The letters were written in a funny language that she couldn’t say but there were six names written in English, one under the other with the first letter of each name bigger than the others:
Solomon
Hercules
Atlas
Zeus
Achilles
Mercury
Snow White was beginning to say the first name, when she heard horses in the courtyard. She went to the window with the bench and saw that the Queen had arrived and was not in a very good mood. Snow white quickly dragged the bench to the stand and ripped out the whole page she was looking at and placed the book back to the way she found it. She replaced the bench to it former spot and then ran down the stairs and quietly closed the door behind her when she heard the queen’s voice in the distance. Snow White ran into the kitchen and hid under the long cutting table as she can hear the queen getting closer until she heard the sound of the big door opening and footsteps going up to the lab. Snow White was worried that the queen would know she was there, so she grabbed a small pot and ran out the back way and into the forest toward the dwarfs’ cottage.
When Snow White arrived at the cottage, she went to the well to get some water, then entered the house and saw all the dishes piled in the sink. Snow White immediately went to work cleaning the dishes, making the beds and dusting the place until it was clean. She then went back outside and sat on a small chair in front of the house and pulled out the page she ripped out of the book and started to read. When she started to read the strange writings, dark clouds all of a sudden appeared. She continued to read and the clouds got thicker. She then read the six names and said the word that was under the list, “Shazam!!!” She was then hit with a strange bolt of yellow lightning and thought she was going to die, but she started feeling a strange sensation all over her body. The sensation grew more and more powerful as she was engulfed in the lightning. Snow White could literally feel her body changing and when the lightning disappeared, so did the dark clouds. She felt herself to see if anything was burned, but she saw what was an amazing sight. Snow White looked at her arms and saw that they were bigger than she ever seen them. Also her legs were bigger too and her chest was also bigger. She noticed the outfit she was wearing was strange indeed. It was red with gold lining and she wore a gold sash that was draped around her waist and gold boots on her feet. Snow White also looked at the white cape with gold lining she wore around her neck and noticed it went a little past the small of her back. But most of all, she saw an image of a gold lightning bolt on her now large chest and gold wristbands on each arm. “WOW, I don’t believe this!!! This is great!!!” And she noticed her voice was a little deeper when she spoke. Snow White marveled at the whole outfit and started twirling and jumping until her last jump propelled her into the air. After a brief moment she stopped and found herself float on air, “I can fly?!! Yeesss, I can fly!!!!! Yippee!!!!” She then started headed west away from the castle and started flying high in the sky. Snow White was very excited as she was passing a gaggle of geese and soaring though the clouds. She then dove towards the river below and was able to level off just a few inches from the water. “I wonder how fast I can go?” she said and picked up speed as she left huge walls of water behind her. After a moment she went straight up, twirling as she slowed down to hover in the air, “that was great! I never felt this before and it was so wonderful! I wonder what else I can do.” Snow White flew back to the cottage and noticed the very big boulder on the cliff. She swooped down to it and walked around looking at it, “I wonder if I can…..” and then she placed her hands at the lowest part of the boulder and with a surprised look, she easily hefted the huge boulder and held it with her left hand, “WOW!!! I’m really strong!!! This boulder must very heavy. I could never have done this before! I always thought it was dangerous for this to be here anyway.” She made a fist and with a swing of her right hand, shattered the boulder into tiny pieces of stone and dust “Even my punch is powerful, this is really great!!!” With that, she dusted off her hands and flew back to the cottage. “I can’t wait to show the dwarves what I can do! They’ll go absolutely crazy!” She knew they be coming home anytime now, so she had to change back, but didn’t know how. “Hmm, maybe if I say it again, that would change me, Shazam!!!!” Again the lightning bolt engulfed her and in moments Snow White was herself again. Snow White went in the house to prepare the dwarfs’ supper, “I think I’ll show them after supper, they’ll be very surprised.” Just then, another thought came to her, “if the dwarves will react surprised, I wonder how the Queen will take it?” Some hours later she could hear the faint singing as the dwarves were coming home from a hard days’ work in the mines. It was almost time and she wanted to see their little faces when she showed them her surprise. Doc was the first to enter, followed by Grumpy and Bashful, Sneezy and Dopey and the others. “Well hello princess, how was your day?” Snow White turned and smiled broadly “You guys are not going to believe what happened to me today, but when I show you, you’ll be shocked in which the likes you never been.”
