Blood is Thicker Than Water 2.0 Gretel: Hansel: Gretel: My name is Gretel, and this is my brother, Hansel.

People live, grow and die, this is the most absolute law of nature. This is the orthodox of most earthlings. We were once the most loyal believer of this view. Until now. We know the risk, but we have to tell you.

Hansel:

What youre going to hear was a story that will change your life forever. Hansel and Gretel are siblings who used to have a mother until their mother died in an accident, they were mourning their mothers death in a funeral. Gretel: Mother, you left us when we need you the most; frankly, I have no idea what I can do without you. Nevertheless, I promise, I will take care of brother and make every day we lived count so that your sacrifice worth it. Hansel, let us light up a candle and recite the prayer to mourn our mothers death, shall we? No, I will not, mother is dead because of my stubbornness, and yet you expect me to recite a prayer and everything will be okay? NO! It should be me who had died! Not our mother! Hansel! Hansel! Where are you going!

Hansel:

Gretel:

Hansel ran away from the funeral due to the guilt that overwhelmed him, nonetheless, he went back to his mothers tombstone that night when everybody had gone and spoke to the tombstone hoping that his mother could hear him. Hansel: Stupid, delusional, exasperating sister. And I know what youre going to say, mom: It makes her feel better, So what? For how long? A minute? a day? What difference does it make? Because in the end, when you lose somebody, every candle, every prayer is not going to make up for the fact that the only thing you have left is a hole in your life where that somebody you cared about used to be, and a rock with a name carved into it. So, thanks for everything you had done for us. How I wish you are still here. I am still here, silly son. WHAT?! MOTHER IS THAT YOU?! YOURE NOT MY MOTHER, WHAT ARE YOU?! You shouldnt say that, RAWR!

Mother: Hansel:

Mother:

Hansel:

AH!!!!!MONSTER!!!!!

(Hansel ran away) Gretel: Whatever you remember of the story, if you remember anything at all, it shall only be a fraction of the truth For whatever else our mother was, a mother, a housewife, I shall see her as a woman who struggled against the darkness. She is a VAMPIRE!

Hansel:

Together:

(Narrator shows a card written a few days before Hansel and Gretels mothers death) Hansel and Gretel were both in their high school. It was their lunch time. Mother: Gretel: Hansel: [Eating] Mother was looking around at the students scattered all over the school compound. Gretel: Mother: Mom, what are you looking for? Erm, nothing, just enjoy your food dear. My dear, see what Ive brought you, taadaa----! OH MY GOD! Tarts! Our favourite! Thanks mom! Great, Im starving now.

Hansel was alarmed. Hansel: Mother: (lean closer) Dont tell me youre thirsty right now, mom. Im just fine, Hansel, dont worry about me, Ive been trained to restrain the thirst for years. Now if you dont mind, I would like to go to the washroom while you finish your tarts. All right, you know how to handle it, dont you, mom? I mean, (lower his voice) your thirst. Im just all right, dear! Dont you be such a nagger, Im your mother and of course I know what I should do! Yeah, dont worry Hansel, mom has been doing this for years. Your anxiety is just so unnecessary. Okay, okay, I believe in you.

Hansel:

Mother walked away. Although Hansel declared his trust in his mother, he was still feeling a little bit worried to have his mother left alone while shes thirsty, for she is a vampire. So he quickly stuffed all his tarts into his mouth and tailed his mother all the way to the washroom to ensure her safety. No, to ensure OTHERS safety. He felt odd, perhaps he should quickly understand that it was actually an omen, but unfortunately he didnt. He should have sensed it wrong earlier. Hansels mother was walking in a thoroughly different direction from the washroom. Before Hansel could react, she sprinted forward too quickly at a handsome guy nearby. However, Hansel managed to regain his instincts and flung forward to pull his mother away before she could bare her venomous fangs on the poor guys neck. Luckily, Hansel was so fast that she didnt manage to even touch the guy yet. Hansel: Mother: Hansel: Mother: Mom, do you know what the hell are you doing?! You will kill him! Listen! Listen! Listen! Mom! You have to control! Listen! Listen! Listen! Let me speak! You think youre the only one in the world that has problems, cats have problems, dogs have problems, humans problems, and of course vampires have problems! I was too thirsty! Youre so lucky that your DNA coordinated you to have 23 pairs of chromosomes instead of 25! Youre born to be as a human but not as a kind of mine! Youd never know how I feel! Do you know how hard I restrained when nursing you and your sister up? You just dont see how much I sacrificed for you both! I know that you sacrificed a lot, but you cant just treat them as your human blood bag! Try on those stray dogs and cats! Listen! Listen! When I speak, you must listen! Because I have degree, and youre only o-level, you must respect the adults! I have not been fed for two days already, and now you get to have your lunch and so why cant I get mine? Just in case you dont know, the blood bank in our home is dried up! Do you know how long hasnt your father refilled it for me? Do you know how hard it is to refill the blood bank? Now that God has given me such a chance to be seated in a school full of food so why dont I take it gratefully and use it wisely? Fine, Im wrong, Im sorry, I shouldnt do it in front of you! Happy?! (storms off)

Hansel:

Mother:

Hansel: Mother: Hansel:

Mom, youre mad, calm down.. Come on, chill now. Dont touch me! Ill leave here right now and disappear from your sight! Mom! Please calm down right now! WHERE ARE YOU HEADING MOM!

BOOMSHAKALAKA--In the blink of an eye, their mother disappeared. Hansel: Oh Man! Why do you keep disappearing like that? Please dont do anything stupid. Hey, sister, have you seen any sign of our mother? Seriously?! She is a vampire, shes like 100 times faster than Ussain Bolt, finding her is like searching a needle in a haystack. Yea, Yea, Yea, youre right, maybe we start searching near the school, she wont go anywhere far, after all, she has to feed on someone

Gretel: Hansel:

Hansel and Gretel start searching for their mother until they come to a toy shop, they saw a little girl at the counter buying a doll. The Cashier: I'm sorry, but you don't have enough money to buy this doll. Little kid: Hansel: Gretel: Little Kid: Miss Gretel, are you sure that I dont have enough money? You know that you don't have enough money to buy the doll, my dear. Who do you wish to give this doll? It's the doll that my sister loved most and wanted so much . I wanted to give her for her BIRTHDAY. I have to give the doll to my mommy so that she can give it to my sister. Why do you have to give it to your mom first? Why dont you just give it straight to your sister? Because Daddy says my sister is now at somewhere far away from here, and Daddy says that Mommy is going to see her very soon too so that she wont be so alone over there, so I thought that she could take the doll with her to give it to my sister. I told daddy to tell mommy not to go yet. I need her to wait until I come back from the mall. I want mommy to take my picture with her so my sister won't forget me. I love my mommy and I wish she doesn't have to leave, but looks like my sister needs mommy too.

Gretel:

Little kid:

Daddy says Im old enough to be capable of myself, so I think mommy should go to look after my sister rather than looking after me here. Gretel: Suppose we check again, just in case you do have enough money for the doll? OK, I hope I do have enough.

Little kid:

Gretel added some of her money into the little girls hand without her seeing and they started to count it. There was enough for the doll and even some spare money. Little kid: Thank you God for giving me enough money! I asked God so heartily to grant me enough money to buy this doll last night before I went to sleep, so that mommy could give it to my sister. He heard me! I also wanted to have enough money to buy a white rose for my mommy, but I didn't dare to ask God for too much. But He gave me enough to buy the doll and a white rose. My mommy loves white roses. Hansel, have we ever read about news which mentioned a drunken man in a truck, who hit a car in the opposite lane and caused terrible injuries to a young woman and a little girl? Apparently, we did, the little girl died right away and the mother, wait, oh my god, oh my god, it cant be! The mother was left in a critical state. The family had to decide whether to pull the plug off the life-sustaining machine, because the young woman would not be able to recover from the coma. Was this the family of the little boy? The love that the little girl had for her mother and her sister is still, to this day, hard to imagine. And in a fraction of a second, a drunken driver had taken all this away from him. She loved her mother so much that even though her mother is at the brink of death, for no reason we should not love our mother when she is still healthy! I mean she cant even die! I realized our mother did so much for us, she loved us dearly, we should not treat her rudely. Yes, no matter what she is, undeniably, shes still our one and only mother, it is her who gave birth to us, it was her who raised us, I regret for my inconsideration and for treating her unmannerly, lets stop talking and keep searching for her shall we?

As Hansel ran across the road, a lorry nearby moving towards Hansel uncontrollably, Gretel shouted trying to alarm her brother. Gretel: Hansel! Come back! The lorry!

Its too late, the lorry was about to knock down Hansel. In the brink of death, their mother appeared and pushes Hansel away.

BANGGGGG! Before anyone could say anything more, mother was knocked down by a lorry which rushed by, proving that Bernoullis Principle is once again true that when an object is moving with a high speed, the other objects nearby will move towards it because of the difference in pressure. Everything fell into Hansels eyes like the leaves in an autumn. Hansel stood still, his brain was temporarily disabled as he saw his mother flew up into the air after being knocked, crashing down hard on the road responding to the gravitational force, and then being stabbed by a flashing stake of wood pointing strangely out of the grass nearby. Gretel managed to rush in and cried. Gretel: Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Thats not a stake of wood, is it? Its not a stake of wood! Somebody please tell me its not a stake of wood! Mom should never be stabbed by a stake of wood! Vampires should never be stabbed by a stake of wood! Vampires die of stakes of wood! Nooo!!!! Why saving me?! You know clearly that you could not escape even if you managed saving me, why risk your life?! Tell me why! MOTHER!

Hansel:

[Hansel and Gretel cried.] Mother: (In a weak tone) Because I had lived! For a few centuries, few hundred years, and your life had barely begun, I always hope for the best for both of you, you deserve a normal human life, not a miserable one like mine, maybe its not a bad idea to put an end to my eternity full of misery. I love you, Hansel and Gretel (Mother closed her eyes to death ) NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hansel:

Gretel:

(glares at Hansel) It was you, you are the reason our mother died, she sacrificed her life for you, you sure as hell make sure every living day she earned for you worth it!

So, Hansel and Gretels mother died, however, Hansel could not accept the fact, he ran away from the funeral ceremony and came back at night when no one was there, he talked to his mothers corpse hoping that she would listen. Hansel: Mom, thanks for everything you had done for us. How I wish you are still here. (sob) (spring up from where she lies) I am still here, silly son. RAWR!

Mother:

(Hansel and Gretel run away, Hansel shouts from a distance) Hansel: Mother: Hansel: Mother: Seriously mom, this is the second time of the ending, do you think that you could scare me twice? Dont you know what kind of monster I am? I am Yea yea yea, youre a vampire. And guess what? Id brought some garlic! AH!!!!!!!

THE END
