Conner Bailey

Conner Bailey is one of the main protagonists of the “Land of Stories” by Chris Colfer. He is the twin brother of Alex Bailey, son of John and Charlotte Bailey, and grandson of The Fairy Godmother. He is a human who has fairy magic in his blood. Unlike his sister Alex, who loves to use magic, Conner doesn’t use magic for he is afraid he can never be as good as Alex. Instead Conner became a writer and made his own stories. Conner, along with Alex, travels through books and has adventures in them. Together, he and Alex are the first children born from two people of different worlds

Appearance and Personality
Conner Bailey is described as looking a lot like his sister and so he has short strawberry blonde hair and has bright blue eyes. His outfits are prone to change throughout the books so they come from Jeans and shirts to medieval clothing.

Conner starts out as a kid who has a hard time paying attention to the class, he sleeps during class. He is a funny kid for he often makes jokes on the fairy tales. He can be a bit in denial, such as not believing he is in the fairy tale world despite seeing knights and a Goldilocks poster. He also gets discouraged when he thinks a situation is to hard such as being in the middle between the two entrances of the Red Riding Hood Kingdom.

Conner also thinks realistically in an event such as believing that when he and Alex get home their mother would be an old lady by then. Conner can be a bit rude by making bad comments of someone, such as asking Froggy “ What are you?”.

Conner can be a bit selfish, for he didn’t want to help out Trix and her problems, as he only wanted her tears.

But overall Conner can be brave and think his way through situations, such as finding a way to escape the Troll and Goblin.

Background
When Conner and Alex were born, this caused the Fairy Tale world and the Other world’s time differences to synchronize into the same pace, due to them being children of both worlds.

Conner Bailey would often have a hard time paying attention to the class, as he would sleep during a session. He would also slow down in math because he felt that he was stupid.

As a kid, he and Alex would visit their grandmother and listen to the fairy tales in the “Land of Stories” book. They became fascinated with what they read.

Like his sister, Conner felt bonded with their father. Whenever he felt like he had a terrible day at school, he would go to his father to tell him his problems. Mr. Bailey would tell his son a story that would make him feel better and Conner would feel great again. When his father was killed in an accident, Conner felt miserable. The family had to move to a smaller house. Alex and Conner would hardly see their mother, for she is a nurse who works in a children’s hospital. They also didn’t see their grandmother very often for she had places to see. Conner and Alex felt that their lives would be forever miserable without their father.

The Wishing Spell
After a hard time in school, Conner and Alex would head to their house. When they enter the house, they see their grandmother, who showed up in their front door. She came to celebrate the twin’s twelfth birthday while their mother was at work. They had a great dinner and wonderful presents. After the celebrations, their grandmother gave them a special gift, the “Land of Stories” book that they have read when they were kids. As happy as they were, their grandmother had to leave when she takes them to school tomorrow. Conner and Alex didn’t want her to leave but they knew she must be busy. That night Conner heard some humming from Alex’s room. When Conner was at school with Alex the other day, he noticed that Alex wasn’t acting like herself.

For a whole week, Alex wasn’t paying attention to the session and even slept in class at one point. Conner was wondering why was Alex turning into him. Conner became suspicious when Alex went to the bathroom and brought her backpack with her. Conner followed Alex to the girls bathroom and demanded to know why was she acting like that. Alex said that the book has been glowing and maybe magical. Conner thought that she was going crazy, and he wanted to calm her down, until the book glowed. Alex said that she’s been throwing socks and books into the book and she guesses that it may a portal somewhere. Conner believes it’s dangerous, especially since a bird just flew out of the book, and he tells Alex that they should get rid of it. Alex didn’t want to so she ran back to class and Conner had to follow her.

During class the book glowed again, which caught the attention of the teacher Mrs. Peters, and she asked Alex what was in her backpack. Conner threw a book at Mrs. Peters in order to make her focus on him. After school Alex left to go home while Conner had to stay behind to have three weeks of detention. Conner realized that Alex didn’t want to get rid of the book was because she planned on getting into the book, so he left detention and ran to the house. Conner ran to the door and saw Alex fall into the “Land of Stories” book. Not knowing what else to do, Conner jumped into the book after Alex.

Conner landed next to Alex in a grass plain with trees. He was mad at Alex for going into the book, and now they can't go back home. Only by seeing some knights and a wanted poster of Goldilocks, did Conner and Alex realize that they were in the fairy tale world. Conner couldn’t believe that they were in a Another dimension and asked Alex what were they going to do. Suddenly Conner and Alex were encountered by Froggy, a talking man sized frog who dresses up fancy. Froggy offered to take them to his shelter in order to avoid wolves. Conner was skeptical at first but he agreed with Alex and followed Froggy. Once there, Conner and Alex asked Froggy where they were and who was he. Froggy says that he was once a man who was transformed into a frogman by an angry witch. He tells them that they were in a dangerous part of the fairy tale world, especially since, Snow White’s wicked stepmother, the Evil Queen, has escaped prison. Conner and Alex wanted to know if there was a way home, so Froggy gave them a journal that will take them to a journey around the kingdoms in order to make a special wish called “The Wishing Spell”. Conner and Alex decided to use this as an opportunity to return home. The next morning the twins said goodbye to Froggy, who didn’t want to come with them for he feared what the world would think of him. Alex and Conner traveled through the Woods and briefly encountered the “Big Bad Wolf Pack”, who were descendants of the original Big Bad Wolf. They were saved by Goldilocks, who didn’t seem as bad as the world viewed her as. After that they reached Rapunzel’s tower.

Once they entered the tower, Conner and Alex read through the journal, which explained that they need to collect eight specific items, which were around the kingdoms, and once united the spell would be activated and it would grant any wish, including a way to return home. Conner took one of Rapunzel's leftover locks in the tower, and so there were only seven more items to go. After that, the Twins traveled to Cinderella’s palace so they could get one of her glass slippers.

Once they entered the Charming Kingdom, the Twins met Queen Cinderella and her husband King Chance Charming. Conner and Alex learned that there were four Charming brothers, three were married to Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty and Snow White. There was a fourth Charming but he’s gone missing. After the kindness the royal family showed them, the twins didn’t have the heart to take one of the slippers. As they were leaving, the twins heard more news of the Evil Queen. Conner didn’t think that this would involve them at all and told Alex to not worry. When they woke up the next day, Alex realized that a glass slipper was in their pack, even though none of them took it.

After that, the duo traveled to The Red Riding Hood Kingdom, where there was a wall and Conner was mad that they weren’t any close to one of the four entrances. Conner found a way by climbing a tree and hopping over the wall and landed on some hay. After Alex followed Conner, they traveled around the Kingdom and met up with Jack, from “Jack and the Beanstalk”. He was heading to Queen Red Riding Hood’s castle, so the twins followed after him. Once they entered the castle they met Queen Red who was absolutely obsessed with Jack and wanted to marry him. While she was distracted, the twins traveled to the basket room to find a piece of Red Riding Hood’s basket. There were too many baskets, so the twins had to leave the castle, to search again that night. They didn’t have any luck finding the basket the second time they visited. They had to hide when a mysterious woman snuck into the basket room, founded the basket and took a piece off of it, and lit the room on fire after she realized she wasn’t alone. The twins took a piece off of the basket and left the burning castle. This concerned them for they realized someone was also looking for the “Wishing Spell”. They later noticed Goldilocks and Jack telling each other that they missed each other, and they hope they could get together after clearing Goldilocks name.

After leaving the Red Riding Hood Kingdom, Alex and Conner were lost in the woods, this made Conner very angry because they couldn’t find their way through the woods. Suddenly they were caught by a Troll and a Goblin, named Bobblewart and Egghorn. The twins were taken all the way to the territory of the Trolls and Goblins, which was deep underground with human slaves. There were lots of Trolls and Goblins who ordered the slaves to give them food and drinks. There was a Troll king, with his daughter alongside him, and a Goblin king. Between them was a stone crown. The twins were taken to the dungeons, which were full of human slaves, including the travelling tradesman who gave Jack the magic beans. The twins lost hope until they were approached by the Troll king's daughter, Trobella. She was madly in love with Conner and even called him "Butterboy". She said that she will free them in exchange for a kiss from Conner. Conner didn't want to kiss her but he reluctantly complied. After they were freed, Alex and Conner led the slaves to the surface. Before they could go, Conner noticed the stone crown and approached it (it was one of the items for the wishing spell). Unfortunatly, as Conner grabbed the crown, he fell down on the Goblin Kings lap. Conner and Alex barely made it out of the territory from the angry Trolls and Goblins.

Alex and Conner ran all the way to the Fairy Kingdom in order to obtain a fairy tear. They met a fairy named Trix, who cried because she turned another fairy's wings into dry leaves, after he insulted her. This made the Fairy council furious and soon she will go to trial that will determine her fate. Alex felt bad for her, but Conner saw this as an oppurtunity to get fairy tears. So he told Trix that she was probably going to get crushed by an ogre after she gets banished. Trix cried after hearing this and Conner took one of her tears. Alex said that she wants to help Trix out during the trial, even though Conner didn't want to for he thought it was a waste of time. Although Conner decided to go to the trial in the end to at least support Trix. Once there the Fairy Council decided to banish Trix for misusing magic. Conner didn't think this was fair so he made multiple points about how that fairy started it and Trix did turned his wings back. Conner said that even though he may not be perfect, he doesn't think that anybody should deserve such a harsh punishment. Conner complained to the Council that while they were busy looking through something so small and pointless, he and Alex have been kidnapped by the Trolls and Goblins. The Council felt ashamed and so they cleared Trix of all charges and left to teach the Troll and Goblin king's a lesson.

After that, Alex and Conner traveled to the Sleeping kingdom to obtain Sleeping Beauty's spindle. They noticed that everyone was sleeping from withdraw, due to the one hundred year sleeping curse put upon them. Conner and Alex meet Queen Sleeping Beauty and her husband King Chase, who were busy discussing what to do to keep the citizens up from sleeping. Conner suggested using a rubber band to keep the people up. So while he was searching the backpack for rubber bands, the Glass Slipper slipped off the pack. King Charming thought they stole the slipper so he ordered guards to chase them, although Sleeping Beauty halted them. She met a person who was also looking for her spindle, along with other items, to complete the wishing spell. So she decided to give the twins the spindle, as long as they return it to her.

Later Alex and Conner disembarked for the North kingdom, where they would take one of the jewls from Snow White's glass coffin. They had to move pase the guards, who were on the lookout for the Evil Queen. Alex and Conner snuck into the room that was suppose to have the coffin, but it was just a dead end. Queen Snow White spotted them and demanded to know why they were here. The twins explained that they were on a scavenger hunt and the jewels were part of the list. Snow White told them that she gave it to the dwarves that helped her out. She warned them that if her stepmother is also looking for the items they were looking for, the Evil Queen wouldn't hesitate to harm them for she is "heartless".

Alex and Conner went into the woods afterwards, to find the jewels. They noticed a curvy tree similar to what their father told them as kids. Alex got into a fight with Conner, that if that tree was from their father's childhood, than it means that their father lived in the fairy tale world. Conner got angry about why didn't their father tell them about this. Alex calmed him down by telling him that he probably felt that they would be to young to understand the truth and so he would tell them when they got older. Unfortunatly that never happened for their father died. After calming down, the twins went into the mines to get the jewels, which they succeded. Suddenly they were approached by the Big Bad Wolf Pack. Their leader, Malumclaw, told the twins that they had to follow them to their benefactor, who needs the twins for something important. Conner and Alex escaped the wolves by hopping into a minecart and thrusted through the mine. Unfortunatly they crashed through a dead end, but made it out alive. Then they were knocked out by Bobblewart and Egghorn, who captured the twins once again.

As Alex and Conner woke up, they learned from the troll and goblin, that the whole species is furious at them for telling the fairies. So Bobblewart and Egghorn are taking the twins back to their territory, so every troll and goblin can beat up Alex and Conner. In order to escape, Conner drew his own blood to attract the attention of the big bad wolf pack. As the monsters were distracted by the howling, Alex broke Cinderella’s glass slipper and used the shards to cut the net the twins were trapped in. The twins ran for their life as the troll and goblin were eaten by wolves. The pack was chasing the twins to a cliff where the twins had to either jump to the sea, or stay and get captured by the wolves. Conner pushed Alex off the cliff and followed after her.

Conner and Alex nearly drowned, but were saved by some mermaids, who provided them a magic bubble that allowed them to breathe. The mermaids took the duo to the Seafoam Spirit, who is the mermaid from “The Little Mermaid”. The Seafoam Spirit had the power to read their thoughts via water, and so she knew that the twins needed one more item for the Wishing Spell. The item was the saber, the same one where the little mermaid’s sisters traded their hair to the Sea Witch so she could give the mermaid the saber to kill the prince that broke her heart. The saber was in a bush pit located in the Sleeping kingdom, the bush was enchanted to trap anyone who comes there. The spirit gave the Twins shells that repel the vines, so they could get the saber. The Spirit warned the twins that the Evil Queen was also after the Wishing Spell. The woman with the basket, who is the Evil Queens Huntswoman, and the Big Bad Wolf Pack also worked for the Evil Queen. The spirit warned the twins that the Wishing Spell was used before, and it can only work once more, this made the twins more desperate to get the saber.

The twins were led by the mermaids out of the water and into the Sleeping kingdom. Wearing their shells, Conner and Alex went into the pit and the vines were repelled by the shells. It took a while but Conner founded the saber, thus completing the list for the Wishing Spell. As the twins were climbing out of the thorn bush pit, their shells were caught by some vines and broke apart. The twins were nearly dragged to the bottom, but they were pulled out of the pit by Froggy. Froggy explained that he was looking all over for them, because the Fairy Godmother wants to see them, and in exchange she will turn Froggy back into a man. Conner thinks that the Fairy Godmother wants to see them because she’s mad that they “stole” and broke one of the Glass Slippers. Conner and Alex were afraid that if they go to the Fairy Godmother, she will take away their items. The twins decided to go with Froggy to the Fairy Godmother so she could help out Froggy with his curse. Before they could do so, they saw Goldilocks carrying Queen Red, who planned on throwing the helpless Queen into the abyss. Before Red fell, she was rescued and captured by the Huntswoman and ran off with her. Alex and Conner didn’t know what to do, until they were once again approached by the Big Bad Wolf Pack. The Wolves demanded that the Twins, and to extension Goldilocks and Froggy, come with them to the Evil Queen, or they will rip them to shreds. Froggy ran off to find some help and he out hopped the wolves and left. The twins were prepared for the worst.

Conner, Alex and Goldilocks were lead by the wolves, to an area of the Sleeping kingdom that was completely dead. They arrived at an abandoned castle,(No longer abandoned as it was occupied by the Evil Queen). Once they entered the Castle, Goldilocks was sent to the dungeons, where Queen Red also resides, while the twins standed before the Evil Queen. The Queen, took away the items and prepared to use the Wishing Spell. Conner pushed the Queen, and she dropped the Fairy tear to the floor, which evaporated, and the Spell was incomplete. The Queen hit Conner in frustration for foiling her. The Queen needed a fairy tear so she looked through Alex using a Magic Mirror, and looked at her funny. The Queen decided to tell the twins her tragic backstory. The Queen’s name is Evly, and a long time ago she was a prisoner to the Enchantress, who cursed Sleeping Beauty to slumber. Evly was forced to work for her, but she fell madly in love with a man named Mira. The Enchantress was furious and tapped Mira into the infamous Magic Mirror. Evly was saddened with vengeance and so she used a knife, dipped with a powerful poison, and stabbed the Enchantress. The Enchantress ran off to the woods, and presumably died. Evly couldn’t get Mira out of the mirror, no matter how powerful a witch’s magic was. Evly was heartbroken with grief so she asked a witch named Hagatha to remove her heart, and turn it into stone, so she wouldn’t have to live with this pain. Because of this Evly was truly heartless and emotional, unless she touches the heart of stone, and so that’s why she never loved Snow White and always treated people terribly. Evly wants to use the Wishing Spell so she could free Mira. The story was too sad for Alex, so she cried out some tears, which Evly collected and placed them into the Wishing Spell items. This activated the spell.

Conner was confused to know how did the tear worked if it had to be a fairy’s tear. The Evil Queen then used her wish to free Mira from the mirror. The spell worked and Mira was free. Evly held on to her heart of stone, and felt happy to see Mira again. Mira unfortunately died from being trapped in the mirror for too long. Evly was saddened by this and ignored the world around her. At the same time, Froggy arrived with Jack and Snow White’s Knights, the knights were prepared to blow up the castle, so Jack and Froggy needed to save their friends inside it. Alex and Conner tried telling Evly to let go of her heart so she could get out of the doomed castle, but she wouldn’t listen. A cannonball knocked the magic mirror and it trapped Evly and Mira’s body, so they were trapped in it as the mirror shattered. Froggy arrived to save Alex and Conner from the crumbling castle, and so they managed to escape. Alex and Conner witnessed Goldilocks fight the Huntswoman, who was going to lose the fight from the wicked lady. Jack launched a cannonball to the Huntswoman and save Goldilocks. Unfortunately the knights arrested Goldilocks for the number of crimes she committed on the kingdoms.

Alex and Conner were headed to the Northern Kingdom again with their friends, they were said that they couldn’t use the Wishing Spell to return home. They stayed in the castle for a couple weeks, needing to relax after their long journey. They learned that Goldilocks escaped prison and Jack went missing. The twins knew that wherever they were, they finally had each other. The twins, Queen Red and Froggy were invited to join the royals into celebrating the birth of Cinderella’s baby, Hope. The twins arrived there and felt happy to celebrate with all the people they grew up with. The twins learned that Snow White was the one who freed the Evil Queen, because she heard her tragic story and felt bad for her. Sir Lampton, Cinderella’s head of the her royal guard was the one who put the glass slipper in their bag for he knew they needed it. Sir Lampton told the twins that the Fairy Godmother would like to see them now. The arrived in a room and met the Fairy Godmother, who was revealed to be their Grandmother.

The twins couldn’t believe their eyes to know that their Grandmother, and therefore their father, actually came from the fairy tale world. She explained that she had the power to travel from the fairy tale world to the human world, which is called the other world. She told her grandchildren that their father wanted to go to the other world so he could be with his love Charlotte. Her son John loved the other world for the hard work the people go through. He fell in love with Charlotte and even dated her. The Fairy Godmother forbade John to go to the other world because back then there was a time difference between worlds where the other world was faster than the fairy tale world. She didn’t want to lose her son from time. So to return to the other world he had to use the Wishing Spell, to reach to Charlotte. Then a miracle happened when the twins were born, the world synchronized in time. This was due to the twins being born from two different worlds. After explaining everything, the Fairy Godmother went to the celebration with her Grandchildren to say goodbye to everybody. She turned Froggy back into a human, he was revealed to be the missing fourth Charming, Prince Charlie Charming. The Fairy Godmother then summoned a portal that lead back to home. Conner immediately ran to the portal and said a quick bye to everyone. Alex and his Grandmother followed after him back to home.

The Enchantress Returns
Alex and Conner finally returned home from their adventure. They’re reunited with their Mother, Charlotte, who was very happy to see them again. She told them that she had to give out so many excuses to their school on why they have been missing for three weeks. Alex and Conner’s Grandmother has to return to the Land of Stories, to finish up some business. She promised she would meet them again some day, and even teach them magic, something Conner doesn’t think is good for him.

A year has passed since and Conner and Alex became thirteen. They never saw their grandmother, or any piece of magic, for a whole year. Conner has been working on stories of what he and Alex went through, and gave them to his teacher. She thought they were plagiarized so she gave them to Mrs. Peters, who became the new principal. Mrs. Peters thought they were “original”, so she called Conner to see her. Conner thought he was in trouble, like always, and he was nervous. He delighted and surprised to hear that Mrs. Peters loved his stories, and asked him what inspired him. Conner said it just “came to him”. Mrs. Peters suggested that Conner should become an author, which made Conner proud of “his work”.

After school, Conner and Alex went back to their home and saw some flowers for Charlotte Bailey, from Dr. Bob. Conner predicted that Dr. Bob has been dating their mother for the last six months. This started when Bob gave the twins a border collie, named Buster, and now the flowers appear to be the answer. This was confirmed by Charlotte when she came home. She said that Bob made her happy and feel able to move on from her husbands death. The same thing applied to Bob when his wife passed away, so when they met each other they fell in love. Conner and Alex were angry at their mother for doing this to their father, they feel betrayed. They later had a chat with Bob, who told them that the dog wasn’t a bribe and that he cared for the twins too. He even told the twins that he was going to engage their mother and asked for their blessing. Conner and Alex had a private discussion about this and agreed that they were doing this for their mother, as long as Conner doesn’t call him “Dad”. Bob said that he has a bigger house than they do and it even has a swimming pool, this made Conner excited to have Bob as his dad.

Alex, Conner and Bob prepared a dinner, from Charlotte’s favorite restaurant, and waited for her to come back. She didn’t come for hours, and this worried the twins a lot. The last time they waited for a parent they lost one. Then the door opened and a dozen knights from Cinderella’s guard entered the house, alongside Xanthous, a fire fairy from the Fairy Council, and the Fairy Godmother. The twins were surprised to their Grandmother again, but she wanted to know where their mother was. The twins said that didn’t show up for dinner so she’s missing. This concerned their Grandmother so she decided to give the twins some news, their mother has been kidnapped.

Conner and Alex were shocked and demanded answers but their grandmother wouldn’t give them answers. The Fairy Godmother turned the knights into gnomes, so that if any danger comes they will fight back. She revealed that Buster the Border Collie was really Sir Lampton, the head of Cinderella’s royal guard, and left him and Xanthous to watch the twins. Alex and Conner were angry at their Grandmother for not showing up for years and now she puts them under house arrest, without even telling them what’s going on. Their Grandmother hopes that they understand that she is doing this to protect them, and then she leaves to the Land of Stories.

For weeks Conner and Alex have been waiting in the house, wondering whether their mother was all right. They only received minor updates on what’s been going on in the fairy tale world, such as Charlotte being kidnapped by someone in the Land of Stories. Alex and Conner were thinking how did their mother get kidnapped from the fairy tale world. Conner thought that maybe there are entrances from the other world to the fairy tale world. Xanthous and Sir Lampton had to go back to the Land of Stories, for important business. They were going to leave Mother Goose to watch the twins.

Mother Goose arrived, although she surprised the twins by revealing to be an old magical lady, who rode a horse sized gander named Lester. Mother Goose had a fun time with the twins, especially Conner, who thought Mother Goose was amazing. Mother Goose would tell Conner and Alex stories of how her life, including one where she is the Mona Lisa. Later the next day, Conner would realize that Alex had left the house, he knew where she went. He told Mother Goose that Alex was sick and was throwing up all over her room. When she wasn’t looking, he convinced Lester the Gander to ride him and take him to Alex. Conner had to save Alex from falling off a bridge. Conner demanded to know why did Alex left him behind. Alex told Conner that she was heading to their grandmother’s house to see if there was a way to the Land of Stories. Alex didn’t want Conner to get in trouble by bringing him into this, especially since she made Mother Goose tell her what’s been going on in the Fairy tale world. The Enchantress was back and she has started taking over the Land of Stories and kidnapped Charlotte. Conner didn’t care how much trouble they would be in, as long as they’re together. The twins entered their grandmothers house, and looked for a way to the Land of Stories. Conner spotted a painting that looked like the Ugly Ducklings pond. Alex grabbed the painting and activated the way to the fairy tale world. Unfortunately it teleported the house, with the twins inside, under the lake. The twins had to get out of the house to avoid drowning. After getting out of the lake, Alex and Conner realized that they were back in the Land of Stories.

Conner and Alex realized they were back in the woods, a place that brought bad memories. Conner and Alex followed a fox wearing a hood, naturally they followed him. They saw several hooded animals talking about what to do about the Enchantress, since she completely covered the Sleeping kingdom in vines. The animals left once they realized they weren’t alone. Alex and Conner were approached by one of the hooded animals, who turned out to be Froggy. The twins were delighted to see Froggy again, and they were surprised to see him as a frogman again. Froggy was turned back into a frog by the Fairy Godmother to see how the criminals of the kingdoms were reacting to the Enchantress situation. Alex and Conner told Froggy that they snuck back to the world without permission from their Grandmother, so they could rescue their mother from the Enchantress. Froggy decided to help them out without letting the Fairy Godmother know about them, he made the twins come with him to the Red Riding Hood Kingdom.

Conner and Alex followed Froggy to the kingdom, when they went in, they met Red again. She and Froggy were required to join the Happily Ever After Assembly, to discuss what to do about the Enchantress attacks. Conner and Alex wanted to go into the meeting, without anyone noticing them. Conner saw a painting of Red in a large dress, and he suggested that he and Alex hide under the dress while she’s at the meeting. Everyone agreed to the plan, to Red’s dismay.

Conner and Alex were under Red’s dress, as she went into the Assembly. The twins saw what was happening under the dress, through a few loose seams. They heard that the Enchantress had kidnapped CInderella's daughter, Hope, and that she was taught by the Fairy Godmother herself. The Fairy Godmother stated that ever since Ezmia was stabbed by the poison from the Evil Queen, she has become stronger and has lost all good inside. In other words, even the Fairy Godmother doesn't know how to stop her. Then everyone witnessed the Enchantress appearing in the room, and she is happy that they are all here. She said that she has kidnapped the Fairt Godmother's granddaughter (In reality she has Charlotte Bailey, who has pretended to be Alex in order to protect her.) Ezmia asking the royals to lend their kingdoms to her, and in return, she will spare them. Despite the events that have happened, no one complied. Ezmia then stole the Fairy Godmother's soul. This made Conner want to come out of the dress and his grandmother, but Alex stopped him so no one would know they were here. The Enchantress left the room, and for the first time ever, no one knew what to do.

As Conner, Alex, Froggy and Red returned to the Red Riding Hood Kingdom, they noticed the wall that surrounded the kingdom has vanished. Conner realized that Ezmia has continued her attack across the kingdoms. When they entered the library section of the castle, they were reunited with the outlaws, Jack and Goldilocks. They came to the castle to see if they could do anything to help, but no one thought anything could stop the Enchantress if the Fairy Godmother couldn't. Conner then realized that there was a book in the library, that had a list of spells and legendary items, and he told the group that they could assemble a weapon that could defeat the Enchantress. The group didn't think anything from the book was real, as they believe they were just legends. Conner tried to remind them that the "Wishing Spell" was considered fake, but he and Alex proved that it was for real. So what made them think that whatever is in the book was fake. This brought back hope for the group and so they read anything that could potentially stop the Enchantress. The best one was an item called "The Wand of Wonderment". It was a wand that could only be assembled by combining six cherished items from the six most hated/feared people in the world. The group realized that they would have to go across the world in order to steal items from dangerous people, so they gave up hope again. Conner made every pay attention on him again (by burning one of Red's portraits). Conner said that even though this quest sounds like suicide, it would be even more suicidal if they didn't anything while the Enchantress destroys everyone and everything they love. This made the group lighten their spirits again, and now they were prepared to save the world.

The six most hated people in the world were, the Snow Queen, Cinderella's wicked stepmother, the late Giant from the beanstalk, the Evil Queen, the Sea Witch, and the Enchantress. The group needed their most cherished items, so they predicted what items they could possibly be. They needed the Snow Queen's Ice staff, something from the wicked stepmother, something from the Giant, the pieces of the Evil Queen's Magic Mirror, the Sea Witch's jewls, and something from the Enchantress. The group knew they had to use some sort of transportation, Froggy suggested that they use a wooden ship powered by sails to make it fly, like a hot air balloon. Queen Red rounded up her civilians to build the ship, while the others prepare supplies and destinations to get ready for the trip. That night, Conner saw some ghost girl who was pointing east. He was terrified, so he talked to Alex about it in the morning, they agreed not to bring this up in the trip. With everything ready, Conner, Alex, Froggy, Queen Red, Goldilocks, and Jack, boarded the ship (the S.S. Granny, dubbed by Red) and flew to the skies as they made their destiny to the snowy mountains of the Northern kingdom. Where the Snow Queen currently resides.

The Granny arrived to the mountains. Conner and Alex, with Jack and Goldilocks, entered the Ice castle of the Snow Queen. From there they saw her sitting at her throne, with her manipulative Polar bears beside her. Jack distracted the bears, while the twins approached the blind queen. They almost grabbed her staff, until they made a crunch of snow caused by stepping on it. The Snow queen attacked them, she tried freezing them, but she couldn't see them. The Queen was escorted by one of her Polar bears, he would be her eys by telling her where the twins were. The duo entered a room with walls that were reflective. The bear couldn't tell which one of the reflections were the real Alex and Conner, so he made the queen freeze the wrong Alex and Conner. Eventually the bear was accidently frozen by the queen, she was so furious that she shrieked so loud, it caused a bunch of snow to drop on her, knocking her out. Alex and Conner swiped her staff and froze the other bear attacking them. Once they had what they needed, they reunited with their comrades, and left the kingdom.

The group travelled to the Charming kingdom in order to get the Stepmother's item. Conner went with Alex and Red and entered the Stepmother's house. They met her daughters, and had a conversation with her. The Stepmother, who's name is lady Iris, assumed that they came to her to mock her in the face for being cruel to Cinderella. Alex asked her why was she so cruel to Cinderella. Iris replied by saying her second husband would always spend his time with Cinderella before he died. When he passed away, every time Iris saw Cinderella, she would be reminded of him and it would cause her heart break. Conner and Alex noticed Iris's ring, and that made them believe that the ring was her most prized possesion. Conner told Iris that they are on a quest to stop the Enchantress and save Princess Hope. He told her that if he gives them her ring, it would be the nicest thing she has ever done for Cinderella. Lady Iris complied and gave the group her ring. As the group was leaving, they heard news that the Enchantress had knocked down Rapunzel's tower. After learning that the Enchantress was destroying monuments in order to bring down symbolism, Conner believed that the Enchantress was after souls.

The crew of the Granny, returned to the Red Riding Hood Kingdom, the beanstalk had been chopped down so they had to wait for it to grow back. Alex, Conner, Froggy, Jack, and Goldilocks, climbed up the beanstalk, a task that proved to be difficult. Once they reached the top of the beanstalk, they saw the Giant's castle. Once they entered the castle, they noticed many portraits of the Golden Harp, who was in Jack's house in the Red Riding Hood Kingdom. As the group realized they came to the castle for nothing, they were hunted by a giant cat. The group ran back to the beanstalk, with the cat following after them. Red had to chop down the beanstalk, and she did it with tremendous strength. The Cat went back to the clouds, and the group was safe. Alex and Conner had to tell the Harp that she was coming with them.

The group didn't know what would happen if the harp touched the wand and how would she even be a part of the wand. Until they figured out how to make the harp a part of the wand, the crew voyaged to Sleeping kingdom, where the wrecked remains of the Evil Queen's castle resided. Alex and Conner were the only ones to fit into an entrance that leads to the wrecked castle. The twins used the wand to collect the remains of the Queen's Magic Mirror. They realized they weren't alone when they saw Evly in some shattered remains of glass. Evly didn't recognize them at first, due to the mirror's curse making the prisoner forget who they were. Conner made Evly remember who she was, by mention her title "''The Evil Queen". ''Evly felt bad for what she has done, and asked the twins to forgive her for what she has done to them. The twins forgave her, due to her not being able to feel her emotions. Conner and Alex suggest that when the wand is complete, they could use it to free Evly. Evly didn't want to be free, for she believed she deserved to be alone. Evly told them that they were being followed by a ghost girl know as "the Lady of the East". She also told them that the only thing Ezmia loved most of all was "herself". The twins wanted to more answers, but Evly forgot who they were again, due to the curse. Knowing that there was nothing they could do to help her, the twins returned to their friends, and left the kingdom.

The group then discussed how were they going to get the sea witch's jewels, they have to trade her something valuable. Goldilocks suggested that they trade Red for the jewels (A Queen is valuable). Red didn't want to go with it, she absolutely refused. So Goldilocks decided to dress up as Red and be given to the Sea Witch. Alex then told Conner about her experience with the Snow Queen, she told Alex "Of the four travellers, one will not return". Conner didn't think this made any sense, as there were six travellers in total. Then, Conner and Alex saw the ghost girl again. Conner kept asking her "what did she want"? The ghost girl disapered again. The Granny landed on the sea, the crew didn't know how to get under water. They were surrounded by mermaids, the "SeaFoam Spirit" was there too. The spirit wanted to help out the twins with their quest to stop the enchantress. She gave the crew special sea shells to breath underwater. She also provided the group a giant sea turtle, he will help them reach the bottom of the ocean quickly. Within a half hour, the group reached the bottom of the ocean, into the lair of the Sea Witch. The group entered the lair, Alex and Conner went into the Sea Witch's room, with Goldilocks and Froggy beside them. The quartet met the Sea Witch, she wanted to trade a few pearls for "Red". Conner demanded the witch gave them her jewels, he made up a story about how he and his friends were cursed to become a frog and two kids. The Sea Witch changed her mind and decided to the trade, which was complete. But as Froggy and the twins were leaving, the witch used her cuttlefish to taste Goldilocks, to see if he tasted royal blood. The Sea Witch was furious once she realized she had been tricked. She, with help from her seapets, attacked the group. During the battle, Conner kicked the witch's cuttlefish (which trapped her head in his mouth). The group ran back into the turtle and went back into the Granny. As the ship started flying again, a few anglerfish jumped out of the water and ripped the sails. The Granny crashed landed into some part of the kingdom. Before Conner and Alex blacked out, they saw a Troll and a Goblin walked toward them.

Conner and Alex woke up in a minecart, driven by a troll. They saw their friends, and the harp, were in other carts. When they realized they were returning to the Troll and Goblin Territory (renamed to Trolblin territory, they were worried. When the group reached underground, they noticed that the Trolls and Goblins weren't as ugly as they remembered, they were even clean. They also noticed the human slaves were not even rugged or scared, they were absolutely bored. Conner and Alex were taken to the waiting rooms, where they were to dance with the Trolblins. They saw their future stepfather, Dr. Bob, also in the waiting room. He said that he has been searching all over for them, after sneaking into the door that led to the Fairy Tale world behind the Fairy Godmother's back. Then everyone, except for Conner who stayed in the back of the line, danced with the Trolblins. Conner was forced to get into the dance floor and, to his dismay, he saw Queen Trollbella. She was happy to see Conner again, she even made a stone bust of him in case he ever returned. She told Conner that the previous kings were killed by some rocks that landed on them. She became queen and renamed her people into "Trolblins", combining the names of the two species. Trollbella told Conner that she wanted to marry him. Conner was worried that if he said no to Trollbella, she will possibly punish his friends. Before he could say anything, an hourglass appeared and the sand was almost gone. Ezmia had asked her to surrender her throne to her, Trollbella didn't take her seriously and refused to. Alex knew that when the hourglass ran out of sand, something bad was going to happen. Then when the hourglass's time was up, a flood of water rushed toward the crowd. Everyone ran for their lives to the exits, while Alex and Conner stayed behind and used the ice staff to freeze the water. The ice broke, and the twins joined their friends into the surface.

Alex, Conner, their friends, and the Trolblins, barely made it out of the territory. The group only needed one more item for The Wand of Wonderment, The Enchantress's item. As the group prefered to wait until something came up, Conner and Alex went to a walk. As they were walking, they met the ghost girl again. She motivated the twins into following her, the twins gladly did so. Conner and Alex went into an underground entrance, that led into Sleeping Beauty's castle. The twins met King Charming there, who they told if they know who the ghost girl is. He told them that is the ghost of Queen Beauty (from the story "Beauty and the Beast). The ghost of Queen Beauty told the twins that they need to stop the Enchantress. Another ghost arrived, The ghost of Hagatha (Ezmia's Master). She told the duo that the Enchantress planed on creating a portal that led into the otherworld. She will create the by conquering the past, (destroying national monuments), conquering the present, (Taking the thrones of the Happily Ever After Assembly) and conquering the future (Kidnapping the heir of man and magic). She also needed to master the seven deadly sins. Alex realized that if Hoper was the heir of man, does that mean Alex is the heir of magic). Hagatha told them that Ezmia's greatest possession was her "pride". The twins knew what the final item was, so they had hope again. A third ghost, named Gloria told the duo that she needed them to return to their friends. She said that she helped built the wand, and now the twin's must take Ezmia's pride. When the siblings returned to their campsite, they learned that the Harp had touched the wand and became a part of the wand, sacrificing her life. Conner knew that the Harp's name was Gloria, and told the group what was the final item.

Suddenly, giant cursed vines launched out of the ground and began capturing the royals. Conner had to save Trollbella from getting pulled underground. The pull was too strong for Conner to handle, so Alex had to grab Conner too so he wouldn't fall in. Conner didn't want Alex to get pulled in too, so he kicked Alex and he, Trollbella, and their friends were taken to a tower made of rocks and roots. Conner witnessed all of the royals tied up to the walls. He saw his mother, locked up in a cage with Princess Hope. Ezmia mocked everybody in the room for not giving up their thrones earlier. She told them to give up their thrones, or she will throw Hope and the Fairy Godmother into the flames. One by one, the royals gave up their thrones. All that was left was for Queen Red to give up her throne. Red was about to give up her throne, when Alex showed up (with the incomplete Wand of Wonderment in her hands) and interrupted the spell. Ezmia warned Alex to go away or she will kill her, Alex then insulted Ezmia and called her a bully. Ezmia was furious, so she blasted Alex out of the tower and Alex fell far away and possibly died. Everyone was shocked, but not as shocked as Conner, who witnessed his only sister get blown away.

Relationships
Alex Bailey: As his twin sister, Alex is Conner's closest companion. Even though they don't see eye to eye with everything, they make it through the most difficult challenges together as they got each others backs.

Froggy: Conner was afraid of Froggy when he first met him. He didn’t trust him at first. But he changed his mind when he saw that he really was trying to help him out. Conner was the one who named him Froggy. Conner did yell at Froggy whenever he wouldn’t listen to him and Alex, such as he kept calling them children, when they became teenagers. Overall he thinks of Froggy as a great friend he can always count on thanks to Froggy coming to the rescue.
