A/n: Hey every body. Here is a new story of mine based on the movie Ever After, a Cinderella story. This story will be staring Sakura as Danielle and Sasuke as Prince Henry the second. Please read and review and now enjoy.
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or Ever After.
A carriage stopped in front of a grand castle and two men wearing suits stepped out of the carriage. A man came out of the building and gestured to follow him inside.
The man led the two gentlemen into the castle and up a large stair case. They all walked in silence until they reached two oak doors. The man that was leading that was knocked on the doors before opening them.
Inside the room there were servants and a very old woman with faint blond hair that was sitting in a large four poster bed, beside her bed were two chairs that had be put out for the gentlemen.
The room was decorated with expensive pieces of furniture and paintings. One of the paintings was set apart from the rest. It was set on an easel next to the woman's bed it, draped around the painting was fabric of deep purple.
The man that led the gentlemen into the house walked toward the old woman and bent down and whispered in her ear, "The Grimm brothers' Tsunade-sama." The man showed the Grimm brothers to their chairs by the bed and told them to sit.
Tsunade took a cup from the table next to her bed took a sip of the liquid that was in it a put it down before she started to talk to the Grimm brothers'.
"Good day gentlemen and thank you for coming," Tsunade's voice was a little raspy yet held power and authority. "I suppose that you are wondering why anyone my age would like to talk with someone who writes children's stories."
The Grimm brother with short light brown hair spoke "Your letter was definitely intriguing Tsunade-sama."
"I find your collection of folk tales impressive," complemented Tsunade, with a smile on her face.
"Thank you," it was the second Grimm brother with black hair that said this.
"But," suddenly the smile vanished from Tsunade's face, "I was sorely disappointed in your version of the little cinder girl."
The second Grimm brother tried to convince her other wise "Some swear that it being told with magic pumpkins and fairy godmothers' is closer to the actual true."
The first Grimm brother stepped in to help by saying "Some claim the shoe was made of fur and others' glass. But I guess will never know."
After the Grimm brother were done speaking Tsunade called froth a man servant and whisper in his ear. The man nodded and went to a table on the other side of the room on the table were a lot of sliver boxes."
The second Grimm brother was looking around when this was happening. He cot sight of the panting of the girl that was set apart of the rest. 'I wonder why that painting is set apart from the rest, why is it so special,' he thought.
"Forgive me your majesty but who is that painting of ?"
The servant that Tsunade had sent to the table had returned carrying a large sliver box. He opened the lid and Tsunade reached in saying "That is Sakura Haruno and this was her glass slipper." She had pulled out a Shoe that was made completely of glass and was studded with diamonds and rubes.
The first Grimm brother said "Then the story is true," with excitement dripping from his voice.
"Yes, now what that phrase you use," Tsunade paused for a few seconds trying to remember, "Ah yes, once upon a time there live a little girl of eight years who loved her father very much."
--------------------
A little girl was getting ready to meet her father whom she hadn't seen in months and her new stepmother and step sisters.
'I wonder what they will be like,' thought Sakura to her self as she pulled back her pink hair into a braid.
'I hope they like me, then we can be really good friends,' Sakura smiled she would love new friends. The only friend that she had that was her age was Naruto, a boy that live in the house down the rode about a half a mile. And he was always training to become a shinobi.
Sakura put on a red dress with white silk rimmed around the edges.
Tat... tat… tat.
'What's that noise,' thought Sakura she ran over to the window and saw Naruto standing out side.
"Wow you look like a girl," yelled Naruto when he saw Sakura looking out her window.
"That's because I am a girl, baka," yelled Sakura out her window.
"Yeah but today you look like one," yelled Naruto knowing that this would get her mad.
"Boy or girl I can still beat you to a pulp," yelled Sakura.
"Prove it," demanded Naruto.
"All right I will," Sakura bolted away from her window, out of her room, and down the stairs too the front door. She ran by her servant named Louise who yelled after her saying "Mistress your father returns any minute with the Baroness."
But Sakura didn't hear a word of it. 'I'm going to teach Naruto a lesson.'
--------------------
"The master is here," called out Moirés.
All of the servant that work at the Haruno estate came bolting out of the house or out of the fields they all lined up in front of the house just as Sakura's father rode his horse with two carriages following him on to the grounds. He stopped right in front of the house and hopped off his horse to be met by Moirés.
"Good to have you back Master," said Moirés politely.
"It's good to be back, but where's my daughter," asked Sakura's father looking around.
At that moment the door of the first carriage opened up and a little girl that was about the same age as Sakura stepped out. She had red hair and she wore a red dress with a gold trim. She looked around while another girl stepped out of the carriage.
She also seemed to be about the same age as Sakura. She had long blond hair and blue eyes. She was wearing a dark Green dress with white sleeves and trimming.
Then a lady stepped out of the carriage. She had black hair that was up in a beautiful bun. She wore a teal dress with gold embroidery on it.
She walked up to Sakura's father and said "It looks simply wonderful."
"Papa," yelled Sakura she ran and jumped into her fathers arms.
"There you are! You've got mud on you, have you been playing with Naruto again," asked Sakura's father.
"Yes and I slaughtered him," Exclaimed Sakura looking over her father's shoulder.
"You slaughtered…"said Sakura's father turning around. Naruto stood a few feet away completely covered in mud.
Sakura's father broke out in laughter. "Yes you did." He turned back to the Baroness. He put Sakura down and said to her "I was hoping to present a lady and a clean one at that, but this will have to do."
"Sakura I would like you to meet Baroness Tamura," said Sakura's father pointing at the lady wearing the teal dress. "And her daughters Karin," he pointed at the girl with red hair, "and Ino," he finished. pointing at the girl with long blond hair.
"Girls say Hello to your new step sister," said Baroness Tamura.
"Hello," said Ino and Karin at the same time.
"Okay now that we all know each other lets go have dinner," said Sakura's father. "Sakura will you please show your new mother and sisters to the dinning room. I must tell Moirés what to do with their things."
"Hai , Papa," said Sakura excitedly. "Follow me."
The Baroness and her two daughters followed Sakura in to the house.
"Moirés I want you to unload the second carriage and put their things in the pantry until we figure out were to put them," said Sakura's father in a commanding tone.
"Yes Master," said Moirés.
Sakura's father pated the old man on the back and walked in side.
--------------------
"Utopia," read Sakura. She was lying in bed when her father had come in to give her a gift. It was a book called 'Utopia'.
Sakura's father took the book from her and started flipping trough the pages. "It might be a bit big for you, but I thought you might like it."
"Will you read some to me Papa," asked Sakura.
"Not tonight, you've had a big day getting a new mother and sisters all at once. Do you like them Sakura," Sakura's father asked.
"Yes very much, they were so nice at dinner," said Sakura.
"I'm glad you like them because I have to go to Suna in three days, I'll be there for four weeks," said Sakura's father with a bit of regret in his voice.
"But you just got back, please go for only a week," pleaded Sakura.
"Two weeks."
"One."
"Two."
They both made fist and hit them against the bed three times and made figures with their hands. Sakura's father had paper and Sakura had scissors.
"Fine one week, good night Sakura," said Sakura's father. He left the room so she could sleep.
---------Three days later------------
Sakura's father stepped out of the house to see everyone lined up to see him off.
"I don't think I've ever seen so many depressed faces' in my live. I'll only be gone for a week," said Sakura's father.
"Then go. The sooner you leave the sooner you return," said Baroness Tamaru. Sakura's father quickly kissed her and continued done the line.
"Maybe the three of you can get to know each other better while I'm gone," He said pointing at Karin, Ino, and Sakura.
He walked up to Sakura and knelt beside and said to her "I'm counting on you to so them the ropes around here the Baroness isn't used to working."
"Yes Papa," said Sakura sadness was just dripping from her voice.
Sakura's father pulled her into a hug. "It's only a week Sakura," he said into her ear. He let go of her and walked of to his horse. He got on to his horse and trotted off toward the gate.
"Let's go back inside girls," said Baroness Tamura turning to go back inside.
"Wait, he always waves at the gate," Sakura told the Baroness.
The Baroness just gave her a funny look and continued to go inside. Sakura turned back to watch her father go.
Sakura's father suddenly grasped his left arm and then his heart. He started to bend over, and then he fell off the horse he was ridding on.
"Papa," screamed Sakura.
'No, this can't be happening,' thought Sakura trying to contain herself as she ran over to her father's fallen body. When she reached him she couldn't control herself any longer.
She collapsed by his side and started to shake him while crying "Papa….Papa."
Baroness Tamaru ran out of the house upon hearing sakura scream 'Papa', when she saw her new husband lying on the ground she ran over to him as fast as she could. She sat down beside him and rolled him on to his back.
"Darling…" whispered Baroness Tamaru.
Sakura's father looked at the Baroness then at Sakura. He lifted his hand to Sakura's cheek and said quietly "I love you." His eyes flittered closed and he took his last breaths'.
The Baroness gave Sakura a dirty look before practically screaming "Darling you can not leave me here…. You can not leave me."
Moirés lifted the Baroness off the ground and pulled her into a hug as she cried into his shoulder.
Sakura started to shake her father's lifeless body crying "Papa, please come back…. please come back…please."
--------------------
"It would be another ten years before another man entered Sakura's life."

A/n: This is the longest thing I have ever written and it's only the first chapter. If any one was wondering it was Tsunade that said the last sentence. I kept some of the names the same from the move like Moirés and Louise, so please don't get mad at me for lack of creativity.
Please review and tell me what you thought of it. By the way reviews do tend to make me update sooner, so if you like this story and want more you should review.
