Okay, this is the sequel I promised to my story Cinderella...not really much to say except I'm sorry I haven't posted anything sooner.
~Prologue~
It's a rainy day, and the fairies are feeling mischievous. They're all pestering me, but one voice is missing. She's usually very loud, which is why her silence is so obvious. I search the room and find her in the corner, staring into her magic mirror, a small frown fixed on her face.
"Godmother?" The fairy doesn't respond, her face darkens slightly, troubled by what she sees. "Godmother!" I raise my voice and this time she turns to me.
"Arthur?"
"Yes?"
"What have I done?"
"I don't know. Maybe you should tell me." I try to sound kind, but the dread in her voice is making me nervous.
"It was at the ball. You know how I love balls."
"Yes, but I didn't know you followed me there."
"I did, no one noticed me. While I was there I found an intriguing boy with a passion for music. He was so lonely! I couldn't stop myself!"
"What did you do?"
"He is the prince. I just couldn't leave the poor boy like that."
"Tell me what happened." What did she do this time?
"I tempted fate. I changed his destiny."
"You did what?" She can't! It's not possible!
"I changed his fate."
"Godmother, you can ruin lives by doing that."
"I know."
"No. You don't know! You have no idea what you've done!"
"I do know! I just saw it in the magic mirror! That other boy…he was crying…it was horrible."
I sigh, godmother can be ridiculous at times. "You have a good heart."
"Thank you."
"You must set it right."
"I know, but how?"
"You'll think of something."
And that is the cliffhanger ending of the prologue...probably won't get anything more up today, but I might add the "first chapter" tomorrow :)
