The wild swans

   Long ago when the unjust kings still ruled, there lived a young girl named Lucy, who worked in a bakery with her father and two brothers. She was happy, but trapped in her own world, bewildered by the hard, cold reality, because while she had fun, her father had to work hard every day to feed them and pay high taxes imposed by the king.
    A day like any other Lucy woke up late, and looked out the window. There she saw her father working and her brothers playing in the street. Suddenly someone shouted -Beware of the wild swans- From one moment to another, the swans came running and took her brothers. She ran downstairs but when she came it was too late.
    That night, Lucy escaped from home and went into the woods. She walked for a day following the footsteps of the swans. But when night came she decided to lie down and fell asleep. The swans found her exhausted and decided to take her with them.
   When she woke up, she was shocked by all the swans around her. One approached her and said -Don't be afraid, we won't hurt you- She was surprised that the swans could speak, but the weirdest thing was that the swan seemed familiar. -Lucy, I'm your brother- he said and continued -The swans brought us by mistake when hunters persecuted them, they were so concerned on escaping that they couldn't realize that we were with them- Then Lucy asked -But how did you become a swan?- Her brother answered -If you drink the water of the enchanted river you'll become a swan. Drink it and you'll live here happy forever!- But that was the last time she ever saw them...
