A Cinderella Story

by jyuhachi1994

Erza's life became miserable when her Father died. Under the rule of her step mother, Jiemma she was forced to work on her own house and being kept from other people. What would happen if those people that she is not supposed to meet, meet her? (I already did this once, but there was a problem before, read my profile description) I don't own Fairy Tail...

1. Chapter 0 -Prologue

In Kingdom of Fiore, the status of each family is divided into five levels:

First Level: Often called the Royal Family, in which the King and Queen of the Kingdom lives. In Fiore, the Vermilion Family ruled the people around them. They lived in Palace that is located far North End of Fiore. They covered almost half of Fiore, and are called Magnolia. Though they rule the kingdom, the rules are from the higher committee, or called the elders.

Second Level: Consists of Seven Noble Families: Heartfilia Family, Dragneel Family, Fullbuster Family, Blendy Family, Kotobuki Family, Dreyar Family, and Mikazuchi Family respectively. They lived inside the land where the Palace is located, inside the Magnolia. Though the most of the members of Mikazuchi Family lived overseas.

Third Level: The families that are in middle class. They lived at the East and West side of Fiore.

Fourth Level: The Family that work directly under the King and Queen's order. Like Maids, soldiers, and guards. They live at the very end of the palace, near the big gate.

Fifth Level: The Family that doesn't work directly under the King and Queen's order. They are the people who live in the Capitol, located in the South of Fiore.

The Kingdom of Fiore has one rule that is passed since the Vermillion became the ruler: The Prince of Fiore must be kept from others until he reached the age of 18. No one must know who he is. The same goes to the Princess, but when it just turned 16. The Prince must choose a Princess from other country to become his bride, and same goes to the princess. They must not choose people lower than themselves.

The children in noble family are not like as the Prince and Princess, but if possible they are kept away from other family lower than their status. They are kept in the palace to study. The bride/groom they must choose is from the noble family too

These rules were not made by the King and Queen, instead the elders. However, most of the people from middle class to fifth class and from other country thought that the King and Queen made it.

But the story revolves around a particular girl name, Erza Scarlet.

Erza Scarlet

17

Erza's life would be said like Cinderella. Her mother died when she was 6 and her father remarried when she was 8. Her step mother had two daughters to her former husband. And at the age of 13, her father died. She was left living with her not biological family. In her own house, she became maid. She sure was a Cinderella, but that only happened after her father's death.

Erza was caring and very protective to her friends that she learned how to hold swords and also learned how to fight. However, those skills were forgotten by Erza when the source of her strength died.

Jiemma, Erza's step mother, locked her up for a year after her father died. And those years, Jiemma spread false rumors that she got mental and nowhere to find. After a year, she became slave in her own house and prohibited to go out, though Lucy made excuses to let Erza go out of the house. But it was not as freedom as they thought, because people in the Capitol thought she already died, so she needed to cover her hair to hide the truth about her. Only few people know about the truth.

Her Scarlet hair was the only evidence that she was the only daughter of the Scarlet Family. Scarlet Family was supposed to be in the second level family, but her mother and father chose to live in the third level family. They wanted at least to give Erza a normal life.

Mavis is kind and protective to her family. She cares guides and protects the palace whenever possible. She seems to be quite cheerful as she's smiling and happy most of the time. Mavis can also be quite carefree and reckless, and this side of her is shown when she is in front of her King and her children. If possible she doesn't want the way the elders order the children to be kept away from others.

Two strands of hair frame her face and reach down below her shoulders, with the left one starting from a prominent, high fringe. Cana has large brown eyes, with long eyelashes. Her face is visibly sharper. Unlike Jellal and Wendy, she can go out of the palace whenever she likes. She doesn't listen to the elders' orders.

Loke is very flirtatious with attractive women, being top ranked as the "Noble you want to have as your boyfriend", according to the Fiore's Teen magazine.
