Cinderella

Chapter 6: My Fairy Godmother......

Ella walked around in town with one of the strangers of the town, telling her story about her stepmother and stepsisters.

"Why do you still stay with them?"

"The house is a keepsake to my family, they'd be upset if I left it."

"I see."

Then, the town was interupted by the sound of the guards.

"Attention! Maidens of the land. The prince, is holding a royal ball, to choose someone to become his wife."

Whispers started going through all of the crowd. Ella however, did not care. She had no intrest in the prince, she probably couldn't even go anyway. Only nobles....

"Along with this, any maiden, noble or poor is invited to attend!"

This sparked everyone's attention. Ella could go meet Kit! Excited, she quickly got back to her house to tell her stepmother and sisters the news.

"The prince is holding a ball! And everyone is invited!"

This caught their attention immediately, they started discussing.

"He also said, he's going to choose his bride!"

Drizella and Anastasia were looking at eachother in excitement.

"Oh, I have two horses in the race! Win his heart my girls!"

Ella stayed there smiling.

"Well what are you doing staying here? Go into town and ask for 3 dresses from the tailor!"

"3? How thoughtful, for you to think of me."

Ella's stepmother looked at her in confusion.

"What?"

Drizella and Anastasia smirked.

"I think she thinks the thrid dress is for her."

"Oh. Let me be clear, one dress for Anastasia, One for Drizella, and one for me! NOW GO!"

Ella started heading to town to get the dresses.

Ella, not being able to get her own dress, didn't see why she couldn't wear one of her mothers.

She helped Ana and Drizella get ready for the ball.

"Tighter."

Ella pulled the straps on Drizella's dress.

"Tighter!"

She pulled them again.

"Tigh-t-er!"

"There we go...."

Anastasia looked at Drizella.

"Let us fight for the princes heart, but we shall never be enemies. Agreed?"

"Agreed."

Ella spoke up.

"Wouldn't you want to know what he's like?

"Not really, since that might change my mind."

They started getting prepared themselves. Ella went up to the attic to finish any finishing touches on her mother's dress. She wore it and went down to the stairs.

"Oh.... my daughters, I've never seen you so beautiful..."

Ella walks down the stairs and Tremaine looks at her.
