THE SNAKE CURSE
Once upon a time there lived a girl named Keke. She lived in the quarantine valley of a small town called BeeBee. She was very beautiful and very well liked by the people in the town. She was also very mysterious because people only saw her during the day. Keke lives alone in the valley because she was cursed by a sorcerer. The sorcerer cursed Keke because the town of Beebee was plagued with selfishness and greed. The curse was that at sundown, Keke would turn into a snake. Only a pure act of kindness would break the curse. This curse prevented Keke from attending any functions that were at night. Keke felt alone most times. One day as Keke went into town to gather supplies, she overheard that there would be a dance coming in town. Keke knew she couldn’t attend this dance because it would be after sundown. Keke heard a girl named Megan talking to her friends. Megan gushed about her plans to seduce the men at the dance. She especially had her eye on the most eligible bachelor named Idris. Keke wished she could attend the dance but quickly shook the thought from her head when she remembered her curse.
As Keke was heading home, she stumbled across a man sitting by the river singing. She hid behind a tree and listened to him sing beautifully. This man was oblivious to the fact that she was there. Keke was so impressed by his voice and tried to see if she could get a better look at his face. He turned around and she noticed it was Idris. The most eligible bachelor in the town of BeeBee. Keke was absolutely shocked and unknowingly let out a gasp. Idris turned towards the tree and noticed someone there watching him. Keke tried to run away but she wasn’t fast enough. Idris called to her and asked her to join him. Keke went over to the river banks and sat with him. He was very handsome and had a very calming presence about him. Keke told him that he had the most beautiful voice that she has ever heard. He told Keke that no one else has actually heard him sing and that’s why he only does it by the river. Keke and Idris ended up talking for hours and bonding over their love for music. He informed Keke that he would be attending the dance and then leaving the town of BeeBee. Idris said he would love to see her at the dance one last time and he enjoyed spending time with her. Keke noticed it was getting dark and she had to leave before turning into a snake. Keke remembered Megan and her plans and her heart immediately sank. Keke got up and ran away.
While Keke was walking home, she kept thinking about Idris and how she would love to go to the dance with him. While Keke was lost in thought, she heard a croak. She turned around and noticed a chameleon looking frog. It was so beautiful and she admired it. As Keke tried to touch the frog, it hopped away. Keke began to follow the frog and it led keke down a path that was very foggy. Keke lost sight of the frog but noticed a figure standing in the fog. Keke called out to the person and the person called Keke by name. Keke was afraid and the person told her not to be scared for she was the great sorcerer Arisa. Arisa told keke that she could offer Keke what she desired the most. Keke told Arisa that she only desired to go to the town dance and meet Idris once again. Arisa gave Keke some enchanted shoes and told Keke that if she wore them then she would stay human the entire night. Arisa also told Keke that the shoes were only good for one night and Keke was not allowed to take the shoes off. Keke was overjoyed and accepted the shoes and headed home. On the night of the dance, Keke wore the shoes before turning into a snake and then went to the dance. As she arrived at the dance, everyone was surprised to see her there. Keke and Idris’ eyes met and he immediately went to her. Idris asked Keke to dance with him and then Keke accepted. Megan was furious about this and decided to send her friend Tinashe to sabotage Keke. Tinashe went over and shoved keke and stepped on her shoes. This made Keke’s right foot step out of the shoes. Keke turned into a snake right in front of everyone. Some people screamed and ran away while some people tried to kill the snake but idris picked up the snake and took it to safety. This act of pure kindness broke the curse and Keke returned to human form. Idris was surprised but very happy to see Keke as herself again. Keke was given new life and was delighted. Idris decided not to leave town but stay with Keke and live happily ever after in the town of BeeBee!
