Woah... (Backstory on Why Apple White is the Way she is)

This is all copied from Apple White’s diary but I think you should read this, it might change some of y’all opinions on her...:

Fortunately I can always count on Briar, "Psst! Apple!" As the class was leaving, she hung back, and tossed a considerable length of Holly's hair out the window. She had that impulsive look in her eye, "Let's go shopping." I was hesitant, but Briar made a great point, "The tour's the same every year. It's not like we're ditching class." We made our escape for some much needed princess time.

Just over the bridge from school is the best shopping in the land - the Village Mall in the town of Book End.

We dropped by the Mirror Store to get the new Mirror Pad for Blondie Lockes' birthday. It's perfect for investigative reporting!

We were having a ball, but there was still one thing on Briar's mind, "Why do we have the White Queen as a teacher?" she adjusted her new sunglasses, "Shouldn't she be running Wonderland?"

"Wait a spell, Briar, you didn't hear?"

Wonderland isn't part of our kingdom, but there is a magic gateway so the Wonderlandians can come to Ever After High. Normally the White Queen and the Queen of Hearts rule Wonderland together. But I overheard my mom and dad talking, and something so terrible happened that everyone, including the White Queen, had to leave. Then they sealed the gateway.

"I want to start a charity for them until this whole mess is resolved. It must be really hard to lose your home."

Briar looked over my shoulder, and suddenly ran off, "I'll catch up to you later." Since I wasn't wearing my glasses, I couldn't see who she ran after, but it was late, and I needed a spellbinding hairstyle before classes started.

The Tower Salon has the best stylist in town. Her name is Poppy, and she really knows her way around a crown of hair! However, there was a wicked surprise waiting for me - Madam Baba Yaga, the school's advisor for sorceresses. She smirked ever so slightly,

"Hello, Ms. White. I trust you have a note excusing you from Orientation?"

How did she know?

Rule #1 - Never lie to a teacher, especially when she can magically turn you into a toad. I composed myself, "No, ma'am."

I knew I was in trouble. Her eyes narrowed to slits, "You may be the future Snow White, but you are not above the rules... your highness."

She clapped her hands twice and in a sudden PUFF I was in detention. All I could hear was Baba Yaga's high-pitched cackle.

This year was starting off on the wrong slipper. Who did Baba Yaga think she was? What a royal pain she is! I mean, I'm not one of her students... I'm not studying to be an evil queen with black magic. Why did she have it out for me, anyway?

The truth is... The truth is... The truth is I was mad at myself. My parents invested so much in me, and here I was in detention, waiting to see Heaster Grimm. Some example I set. If I'm supposed to be the future queen, I need to act like it. Otherwise they might close the book on me.

See, if you rebel against the system, your story is forever locked, and you vanish from memory. So you see being the next Snow White is not just about being beautiful and popular. If I'm lucky enough to get out of this mess, I'm going to be the best Fairest One of All this school has ever seen. And that's just what I was going to tell Heaster Grimm.

As if on cue, a door opened, and imagine my surprise when Briar poked her head out and said, "The Heaster wants to see you."

(The Heaster made Briar tell Apple to ditch the orientation so that she would get caught and he would be able to manipulate her into having her make Raven turn evil)

Usually I don't consider it charming to cry in public. But in the case of being sent to the Heaster's office, I'll make an exception. I broke down in tears, but the Heaster was kind as always. He calmed me down, and explained that while he was shocked I broke the rules, he understood what it was it was like to be young.

But his tone quickly became very serious, "However, you picked a poor time to behave out of character, your grace. I cannot allow our star student to set an example of rebelliousness on the year of her Legacy Day. I'm afraid there must be consequences."

Tears welled up in my eyes as Heaster Grimm turned to the window, "You are officially removed from your position as head of the Royal Student Council. I shall appoint Ms. Duchess Swan in your place. I'm sorry."

This couldn't be happening! If I got kicked off the Royal Student Council, no way I could face my parents. I pledge to let me make up for my mistake, "I'll do anything."

He visibly sighed, "There is one thing. It has come to my attention that Raven Queen may be unhappy with her destiny. As the Evil Queen, it is important that she embraces her legacy. Can you think of anything to help?"

This was a shock. Raven was a sweet girl, but I never imagined her not wanting to be the next Evil Queen. If I was reading Heaster Grimm right, he's afraid she wouldn't pledge her destiny. And if she didn't, she was in danger of vanishing from memory! Not only was she endangering herself, but she also put the destinies of me, Daring and so many others in danger.

I knew what I had to do, "Sir, I formally request a transfer to room with Raven Queen."

Smiling, Heaster Grimm said I was still head of the Royal Student Council. I had a new quest - to save Raven Queen. Some people may have thought it odd for a princess to be friends with an evil sorceress, but if I could help Raven see the light it would all be worth it. But that's a story for another day.
