Well, for a modern day fairy tale fanfiction, you could do a Little Red Riding Hood story where she's a delivery girl in a big city. The wolf could be a corrupt businessman who tries to steal her packages. Or perhaps a Sleeping Beauty story where the princess is in a coma in a modern hospital and the prince is a doctor who falls in love with her while trying to find a cure. Also, a Goldilocks story where Goldilocks is a homeless girl who stumbles upon the three bears' modern apartment while looking for shelter.
In a modern day fairy tale fanfiction, an interesting plot could be a Hansel and Gretel story. Instead of a gingerbread house, it's a modern - day candy factory owned by a wicked entrepreneur. Hansel and Gretel are two kids from a poor neighborhood who get lured in by the promise of free sweets. Another plot could be a Rapunzel story where Rapunzel is a girl locked in a high - rise apartment by her overprotective mother. The prince could be a window - washer who discovers her. And for a Thumbelina story, Thumbelina could be a tiny girl in a world of giants (tall people in a modern city) and she has to find her place among them.
One idea could be a modern Cinderella story where she is a struggling artist instead of a maid. The prince could be a famous art collector who discovers her work at a local gallery. Another could be a Snow White retelling where the seven dwarfs are a group of misfit hackers who protect her from the evil queen's cyber - attacks. And a third could be a Beauty and the Beast story set in a high - tech research facility where the 'beast' is a scientist with a disfiguring accident and 'beauty' is a young intern who helps him regain his confidence and reverse the damage.
One idea could be that the Beast has a secret power that he's been hiding from Belle. Maybe he can communicate with the forest animals in a unique way and they help him in his quest to win Belle's true love. Another could be a backstory for the Enchantress who cursed the Beast, showing her reasons and her own journey. Or perhaps Belle discovers a hidden library in the castle that contains the secrets of breaking the curse not just for the Beast but for the entire enchanted castle and its inhabitants.
In a Goku fairy tale fanfiction, you could have Goku as a Jack and the Beanstalk type character. He climbs a huge beanstalk to a land in the sky where he has to face off against powerful giants. But instead of using just a sword like Jack, he uses his ki blasts and martial arts skills to defeat them.
Well, it's unique because it can take the familiar Twilight story and add a touch of the fantastical that fairy tales are known for. The settings can be transformed. Instead of the normal Forks, we might have a magical town filled with fairy - tale creatures. And the relationships can also be different. Maybe Edward is not just a vampire, but also has some sort of fairy - tale related power or curse that affects their relationship in new ways.
Well, you could set it in a magical reform school in a far - off land. The students could be from different fairy tales. Maybe Cinderella's stepsisters are there to learn about humility. And the curriculum could include things like spell - casting for good, and lessons on how to be a better person in a fairy - tale world. You could also have a mystery element, like someone is causing trouble in the school and the students have to figure out who it is.
You can't go wrong with including characters like a modern - day princess. She could be a businesswoman or a student who still has that air of royalty. Fairy godmothers are also great, but in a modern version, she could be a wise old woman who runs a magic shop or an eccentric neighbor. And of course, the villain. A wicked stepmother could be updated to a mean - spirited boss or a jealous rival at school or work.
Perhaps a story about a mystery within the abbey walls. For example, an ancient artifact goes missing and the characters have to use their wits and knowledge of the abbey's history to find it. It could involve exploring hidden passages and deciphering old clues. This would give a sense of mystery and intrigue to the fanfiction.
Modern day fairy tale romance novels often feature strong, independent heroines. They usually have a magical or enchanted element, like a hidden kingdom or a special power. The heroes are typically charming and brave. There's also a focus on the journey of love, with obstacles and misunderstandings along the way that the couple must overcome to be together.
One idea could be to set the Fairy Tail characters in a modern-day high school. Natsu could be the trouble - making but kind - hearted delinquent, and Lucy could be the new student who gets drawn into his wild adventures. Another idea is to have them in a modern city where magic is a secret but still exists, and they have to fight against an evil corporation that wants to use magic for their own gain.
One idea could be Naruto as a street artist in a modern city, using his ninja skills in unique ways to create amazing art. Another could be the characters attending a modern - day ninja academy that teaches both traditional ninja arts and modern technology for espionage. Maybe also a story where they form a modern - day ninja sports team, competing in extreme sports using their ninja abilities.
Another plot could involve a prophecy that states only the one who can balance the power of the two swords can bring peace to the land. The protagonist is chosen to do this but faces many temptations and obstacles along the way, as there are those who want to use the swords for their own evil purposes.
