Alright, sooo... everyone seemed pretty eager to see this, that's why I decided to wrap it up *before* starting to study :P
As I wrote in the description of the preview, the deadline for this challenge is in the middle of my finals & I didn't want to find myself torn between actually passing the finals or passing the next round, lol
That's why I started this as soon as I saw the results (luckily enough inspiration for this challenge came during Maths class & I found the perfect music for it :P).

Anyways, we were asked to take a fandom & rebuild the story to mimick a fairytale (I hope the one I picked is obvious enough... the title of the "movie" kinda recalls the soundtrack, if you want one more hint :P).
Awesome challenge, if you ask me :)
Cara was in this video before I even thought about making one, but I needed to find a prince... but there are no princes for Cara in LOTS, so what's my fav crossover couple? Oh, yeah.
So, after Pendragon jr. came into play & all the other pieces started going into place by themselves.
Oh... there's a surpise... person. You'll know who I'm talking about at around the middle of the vid :P Most Cara fans will be pleased about my choice :)

Don't read further if you don't wanna be spoiled. OR you could first watch the vid and if you don't understand come back and read. As for the lovely judges, in case you don't know the fandoms, do as you wish :)

------STORYLINE------

This is set in the wonderful AU universe Zedd created in Unbroken. Cara is a young widow, mother of two & school-teacher. (Richard & Kahlan are off making babiez in D'Hara & the Keeper is NOT going to ruin this for me). One day she wishes to be something more... maybe a princess?
And who answers her desperate call? But, of course, the awesomastic Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander, Wizard of the First Order.
He grants her her wish & takes her to Camelot, where she is formally introduced by a very funny herald as Princess Lorelain of Thryce, with a crossdressing Zedd as her aunt & Richard (borrowed from his boring kingdom of D'Hara) to play her golden-haired brother. Cute. Hot. Whatever.
ANYWAYS... That stud of a Prince Arthur falls for our newly-become Princess and wants to "spend more time with her".

She falls for him as well, cuz, you know, they're hot, but Zedd cockblocks once more and brings her back to reality: she's not really a princess and can't really be together.
The carnival act leaves Camelot & Cara goes back to her old life... but someone pops up :)

A fight between love, royalty and two hotties. Who & what will win? No idea. I'll leave that to you.
I love Arthur, but they're kinda impossible... and I also love Leo, but he's kinda dead in the non AU version of LOTS... so I guess that leaves Cara's book interest, Benjy, but I ain't confusing you more than I already have.

------CHARACTERS------
Cara Mason (Tabrett Bethell)

NOTES:
*this is an AU, crossover trailer and it's purely fanmade.
*the scene in the end is a bit too long to be that of an actual trailer, but it was a perfect ending and I couldn't really cut it to bits.
*the subs can be considered distracting, but I hate to add voiceovers because most of the time people can't understand them... so I thought it might be easier to follow the story without having to check the description for every line.
*If I fail my test tomorrow (I will let you know), this video is NOT to blame :)
*this video description was written at 12AM & it might be a bit... out of the ordinary.
*I think I missed something.... I'll come back and add... tomorrow :)
