Nags: Hello everyone! This is my first fan-fiction, and was heavily inspired by the Cinderella (both Disney versions of cartoon and live-action movie)!

Mina: Nags, when will the story start..? ^^;
Nags: Okay, alright !

Heavily disclaimers: I do not own the works of shugo chara, nor its characters. I own Mina, and only Mina.

Once upon a time ago, there was a girl named Mina Aikawa who lived with her rich-working father and her kind-caring mother. Her hair is dark brown, with halfway of her hair in hot pink tied with a purple bow on the back, her eyes are of dual color of sky blue, and light purple, with her dress is white shirt, and red skirt with brown leather shoes.

In the sweet afternoon,

Her home was a normal 2-story house for a well-off family of 3, flowers of various species growing everywhere, and an garden to take care of with relaxing time always there. Her mother tending the weeds of the garden and Mina picking up flowers to give around in town, before her father came home from work.

Mina saw her father from afar before running to him, "Hello dad!" She smiles, and gives him a big old hug as her dad returns the hug.

"Hello Sweetie." His father says, trying to cover his tried tone with a small bit of happiness before his wife stands up, to hug her big old family. "And hello you too hun." Her mother says before giving her husband a smooch on the kiss.

"Mom ew! No kisses when I am here." The small 10 year-old daughter whined, before teasing, "Just kidding!"

After Dinner,

"So Mina, I will be attending somewhere for work overseas. " Her mother spoke once she sat down on the comfy sofa in their living room, then Mina who was playing with her dolls looked at her mom, "But why mama? Why can't papa go instead..?" She whines before her mother gives a smile to comfort her daughter and pulls her for hug. "Don'tn't worry about it, I won't be gone for long."

It wasn't long until next morning that her mother departed to board a ship and left.

A week later,

A strange man who was clearly a messager arrived at the doorstep, knocking on it, as Mr. Akiawa opens it up, asking,

"Hello there sir."

"Hello, is this the Akiawa's household?"

"Yes it is, is there something you need?"

"Its.. Its about your wife... She is decreased from that shipwrecked that happened last week. I am sorry for your loss.." The messager tipped his cap before leaving to deliver similar news to other families.

Mina walked out from her upstairs bedroom to peak from the hallways of her stairs before seeing that her dad was in tears, then walked to him, holding her teddy bear, then asking him,

"Papa... Is.. Is something wrong..?" Her dual colors eyes were starting to fill with tears, as her dad pulled her in for a hug, and cried together.

Within a couple of months of losing her mother,

From the servants gossiping that her father remarried...

Mina learned that she will be getting a new mother, and sisters! She hoped her new family members will be kind to her! When she heard the door open downstairs, and a mixed of voices being heard, Mina woke up quickly to look proper! Her hair tied into a ponytail by a purple ribbon, and wearing a blue dress before running down to greet her new family members.

The small child's mouth nearly jawdropped when she viewed her stepmother and her sisters in the living room, where the a strange lady was ordering the servants to place the boxes.

"Move it over here! Be careful. If you break it, you will have to pay for it." Her orders were direct and cold. Her eyes slightly narrow as she was getting tried of ordering around.

Yukari Sanjo was her stepmother. The stepmother's hair was wore in a neat bun, her grown was fashionable and beautiful as if, she came from a royal family, then pushed up her glasses when she spotted the young about-to-be-her stepdaughter. "Are you Mina?" Her tone comes off as slightly caring but ever so annoyed.

Mina nodded her head and replied, "I am Mina." Before seeing two step-sisters behind her new mother.

One girl had blonde hair with two high pigtails, just sweeping straight before the sister's violet eyes landed on Mina, "Hm?" Her voice is icy as winter, "What are you looking at?" Her dress was a simple but fashionable purple dress.

"Oh.. Um.. Sorry!" Mina apologized, before bowing.

"Humph." Utau dismissed her, mostly due to her trying to follow her mother.

The last family member Mina saw was..

A smaller pink-short haired girl who seem to be around Mina's age and wore a black dress. Her golden eyes met with eyes of sky blue and light purple before the small sister spoke, "Oh Hello...! I am Amu, nice to meet you-."

"Amu, don't talk to.. the stranger like that. You are meant to be a proper woman." Her older step sister interrupted her younger sister, "Come, we must settle in our new home now."

"O-Okay Sister.." The pink-haired girl looked at Mina before following her step-mother with Utau. Soon, the two disappeared to bicker with each other, as her stepmother tried to control the two girls, saying things like, "You must behave like a lady.", "Girls, behave." or, "Girls, stop it. Now control yourself." What her stepmother said didn't make any sense, but Mina shrugged it off before gonna run to her bedroom, as she bumps into her father who was running down the stairs,

"Oh dad! Sorry.." Mina gives a small smile before standing still after bumping, "There is a um.. Lady with her u-um kids." She plays with her fingers a little, "W-Who are they..?"

"Ah, I see you met your new mother and your siblings." Mr. Aikawa replies, before guiding his daughter down the stairs and taking her to the dining room, just so they could have some space alone without anyone overhearing.

"Well you see sweetie, I.. I decided to remarry. You will understand when you get older okay..?" Mr. Aikawa starts, before slightly brushing his dark brown hair, and his purple eyes closing to rub his temples. He hasn't been resting well after losing Mrs. Akiawa, but he kept up an appearance to in order to provide income, and a roof for his daughter. "If there is anything you need, please tell me okay?" He patted his daughter's head before leaving to take care of his wife and his new daughters.

A year had ended after the arrive of her stepmother and stepsisters. New changes has happened upon our heroine's life.

How will Mina fare? Is she able to deal with her sisters?

Nags: hello everyone! You have reached the end of the prologue. I admit I went a little too far fetched, and my pacing would have been better. Chapter 1 will start soon! If you have any questions, I may set up an Q&A. Thank you!
