We all know the original tale of Cinderella. The stepfamily who harassed Cinderella for years, The Ball Cinderella went to, and the shoe she lost. The fairy godmother and of course the prince who she marries at the end.

Now, scratch all the beliefs you have about Cinderella and step into a new story. A story where Cinderella stands up for her beliefs, where the prince is no longer a brainless, nameless character and a fairy godmother who doesn't just give a dress and pretty shoes.

Meet a new and more realistic Cinderella...

- "Well, isn't this interesting?" The prince looked at Cinderella, who was crouching down behind the cabinet. "I wonder what a little mouse like you is doing here." He grinned and Cinderella's throat was as dry as a desert... -

A Cinderella story - Untold files -

Here is what happened last time. Cinderella got a new dress, a new pair of shoes, and a carriage to a ball. Her fairy godmother, or her Boss, just asked if Cinderella was nervous. To which, she replied: 'Of course not, why would I? I know my goal, and I know why I'm doing this. The rich get more prosperous every day. It's about time someone does something.'


'Good. The faster this bust is over, the faster you can go dancing.' Her Boss stroked Cinderella's cheek as they continued their fight against gravity and the *censored* stairs. Once they were finally in front of the main gates and walked through the doors, they felt hundreds of pairs of eyes on them. Cinderella could feel the Boss's hand squeezing in her hand. Cinderella smiled faintly while she swallowed her fear.


"Look, it was scary, alright! I had to do something very illegal, and I was not ready for it. The kingdom has been good to me. At that time, I wasn't prepared to become a criminal yet."


Why do you always ruin the surprise? I was just about to tell the readers what you had to do! So sit tight, and don't speak unless spoken to. As I was saying:


Cinderella smiled faintly while she swallowed her fear. Not that she was scared. She was anxious. But when you know what she was about to do, you too would be nervous. You see, in the original tale, Cinderella wanted to have a fun night out. She wanted to get away from the stress and daily nagging she had to face at home. So, when the letter of the palace came, she was thrilled. In this story, that didn't change. However, the reason why she was thrilled had changed.


You see, Cinderella had had a few earlier encounters with her Fairy Godmother. Not face to face, but through letters. Cinderella had hidden those letters out of her stepmother's sight because those letters didn't contain innocent bibbity-babbity-boo's. Instead, it was filled with instructions. And why did she take those letters seriously, you ask? It could be a stupid prank. And it could, but you should know that when someone is alone the whole time, they want something to change. Of course, Cinderella thought about it that it could be a prank. But this could also be a chance to turn things around for the better. So when the last instructions were to "get ready", she did and stitched a dress together. We all know how that ended.


'We dó know how that all ended. Can we move on? We're already at the ball. The readers know the original tale, so they remember I got a dress and what not from my fairy godmother.'


Very well. But during the ride to the castle, her fairy godmother and Cinderella spoke through their plan once more.


We're not dancing yet, sweetheart
