Summary: My friend Victoria shared with me the ancient Egyptian version of Cinderella. So now I introduce my take on this version – YuGiOh! Style!

You can read the story itself here: .

Long ago, in the lands of Ancient Egypt, there lived a young girl named Teana.

Teana was a quite lovely young lady – dark, silky auburn shoulder-length hair, soft, creamy skin, and bright, curious, cerulean blue eyes. She was also very loyal and kind, as well as a fast learner and hard worker. And like any girl, she'd have dreams…Dreams of one day going to the palace, perhaps even living there. Just like a princess…

For Teana was a commoner. And like most commoners, she and her family did not have much, but she did not let this discourage her. For she knew, as long as she believed in her dream, it would one day come true.

Meanwhile a young pharaoh sits rather boredly on his golden throne. He had skin of copper and tri-colored spikey hair of maroon and black, with golden bangs that framed his hair and face like that of lightning. Thin but strongly-built with mysterious, deep violet eyes. And he wore the royal clothing and jewelry, a cape draped behind him which matched his very eye color.

He is the son of King Akunumkanon: Pharaoh Atem.
