Hello my lovely snowflakes!

Imma back with new story again!

I actually started writing this before I started Simply Meant to Be but I got side-tracked, so technically I didn't break my promise about not starting any new stories. Ha!

I know I need to stop but I'm at that stage for a beginner writer where ideas just flow like a river. And I can't waste precious water! I must let my people drink!

Anyway...I have no idea when I'm actually ever going to have time to finish any of the stories I started cause I never have time to do anything! But that doesn't stop me from making a new story to keep you all hooked on cliff-hangers...I'm sorry...

But that aside, lets enter the snowstorm!

The kingdom of Fiore was always known as the "Kingdom of Kindness" mainly because of its royal family. The queen, Mavis Vermilion, and the king, Zeref Vermilion, had been in rule for years and were known to be the best king and queen Fiore ever had. They cared for their people, not money and power, and tried their best to make sure that each individual person was well taken care of.

Due to their kind nature, the people always insisted that the two have children so that the kind Vermilion family could continue their rule long after their beloved king and queen passed. Sadly, due to Mavis's small structure, her doctors dubbed it impossible for her to give birth and still remain living. No matter what the doctors said, Mavis was determined to have children and keep the Vermilion family in rule over Fiore.

She and Zeref decided that if they couldn't have children of their own, they would adopt. They didn't just want one child from an orphanage in their kingdom. They wanted three kids from different kingdoms so that they would have a sense of diversity in their castle.

They ended up adopting three girls. The first one that they adopted was named Levy McGarden. She was adopted from Cartatura, also known as the "Kingdom of Literature". The second one that they adopted was named Juvia Lockser. She was adopted from Apamare, also known as the "Kingdom and Water". The last girl that they adopted was named Lucy, her surname was unknown. She was adopted from Stelumina, also known as the "Kingdom of Light". Each girl took up the surname Vermilion once they were taken in.

The people of Fiore were skeptical of the girls since their roots were unknown. They were afraid that they would end up becoming terrible rulers and plunge their peaceful, happy kingdom into an era of dark ages. Mavis and Zeref promised to raise the girls to be proper and kind princesses, and they kept their word.

The girls grew up to be as sweet and kind as their foster parents. They hardly ever stayed in their castle and most of the time would be found somewhere in the villages. They would play with the village children and gain friendships with everyone they met. Everyone absolutely adored having the young princesses around and knew that they would become great rulers.

Around when the girls were five years old, Mavis and Zeref brought home another girl, Wendy Marvell. Levy, Juvia, and Lucy weren't told about it. All Mavis told them was that Wendy wasn't adopted so she wasn't legally their sister.

None of the girls really knew what she meant (they were only 5 years old) so they didn't let the news phase their minds. They took Wendy with them to the villages (once she was old enough) and treated her just like their own sister.

This happy royal family stayed calm and peaceful for many years, but nothing stays that way for to long. As Levy, Juvia, and Lucy got closer the age of 18, the pressure of marriage was brought upon them by other kingdoms.

The kingdom had lost a lot of money getting over a recent plague and the other kingdoms took that as an advantage to finally get the king and queen to arrange marriages for their precious daughters with rich heirs to thrones. They pestered them with the fact that it would be the only way to save their royal family from poverty.

Mavis didn't care about herself becoming broke, she didn't care for money or expensive things. Hell, she never even wore shoes or fancy clothes unless it was for some special event (although Zeref would still have to do a little convincing). What she cared about was how badly her kingdom would suffer, if they lost the money. How would she feed them or keep them healthy? She hated to admit it but money was what kept kingdoms functioning.

Still, she never once agreed to arrange a marriage for any of her daughters. She cared about them to much to rob them of the right to marry for love ,just like she did. That was until a certain offer came from the royal family from Foceata (a.k.a the "Kingdom of Ice and Fire").

They offered to send their sons over to the kingdom for them to meet Fiore's princesses. It would be up to the children to decide if they wanted to marry or not. Mavis was still against the idea, but Zeref eventually convinced her to reconsider, he too cared for the wellness of his kingdom.

And with that, Mavis decided that she would agree to the deal that the royal family made.

And we've made it to the ice castle!

Okay, I have a few notes for this:

1) This was just a prologue, the whole story isn't going to be told in this fashion.

2) Yes, I ship Zeref and Mavis. They're cute together.

3) I actually like Zeref and don't think he's really bad at heart so he's not evil, he's the good guy.

4) The name's of the kingdoms are BASED off of Roman words, they're not actual Roman words.

5) The four main pairings are going to be NaLu, GaLe, GruVia, and RoWen, but there are still gonna be tons of other parings.

So that's all. I just wanted to clear a few things up about this so you weren't confused.

This is a warning for anyone out there right now, the rating is not definite. I've been thinking about starting to write lemons (I'm blushing just thinking about it) but for now I'm still not sure. It might be a different story, or not happen at all. All I'm doing is warning you.

*Stand. Bow. Aye Sir!*

And I'll see ya next storm!
