The prompt was: DETOUR
So I just started writing and this is what happened - un-edited and done in about 75 minutes. Enjoy! And run over HERE to check out the other people that joined in on the challenge so you can read what they've written!
Update: I removed this for a couple of reasons, so if you happen to be stopping by a post this far back, well, go check out the other entries!

Ooo! I love fairy tale retellings!!! I'm dying to know where this is headed! Mean to stop where you did. :-P
Haha, nice story and incorporation of the fairy tale. :) And you DID leave us on a cliff, didn't you? :D Good job, and holy crap how did you write so much so fast?! lol
Thanks guys! This was such a fun thing to do! Unfortunately I don't think there is any more. It's a lot darker than my usual fare, but I likes it! I think I'll pull it down in a day or two and work on some revision.
Have no idea how I wrote so much so fast. Just got into the groove, figured out where the story was going and wanted to get there.
I'll definitely be keeping my eye out for more challenges like this in the future :)
Mmm, Val and Greta stew. Delicious! That was a darkly fun spin on a classic tale. I liked how you worked in the gingerbread and both the names Hansel and Greta for Gretl.
And I'm with Regan in my amazement at how many word you cranked out so fast.
Well done!
Yooooiks! I could smell that gingerbread. Which is a feat since I have a sinus infection and can't smell a darn thing. :) Very nicely done, I wanted to jump in and warn them! I love ff :)
Since you're so VERSATILE, writing NaNo and flash fic at the same darn time... go pick up your award over at Le Dange. ;)

Noooo! Run, girls, run!!

Sweet story!
Great job! I was screaming at them to not go in but they just wouldn't listen!!!
Love this line -- If I’d been in a fairy tale I would have taken the darker path, because the lighter ones were always the illusions
ahahaha.... Amazing! I love that ending there. *cackles*
Ooh... "(Trying to Feed an) Inquisitive Squirrel" is one of my favorite Deflated Ghost Chicken tunes!

Dun-dun-dunnn...
"Mr. Hansel"

Nice job!
