Cloaked


This is a one of a kind story combining a few different fairy tales, that including The Frog Prince, The Shoemaker and the Elves, The Six Swans, etc. The story takes place in Miami; it tells the story of a teenage boy named Johnny that works at a shoe repair shop at a hotel called the Posh South Beach hotel. One day, a visiting princess asks Johnny, to find her brother who was been turned into a frog and set loose in the “Florida Keys”. He takes the quest with the prize of marrying the princess. Before then, he is given 10,000$, a magic cloak that can take him anywhere  and an earpiece that lets him talk to “used-to-be’s” which are animals that used to be people.
 Johnny ends up talking to a fox, six swans and a rat.  The swans are the first “animals” he talks to so he can get information. The swans give him the information in exchange for Johnny to look for their sister in his journey. After, they send him to talk to a rat named Cornelius. Cornelius tells him about the fox named Todd. Todd does not believe that Johnny is worthy enough to find the prince. He gives him test of courage and makes sure he is worthy. Johnny has so much to worry about because he has a witch and her son hunting down the frog as well, fight animals of myth and do other things.
In short, Johnny has to go all around Florida with his best friend Meg hopping that they don’t dies in the process.
