The Tale of Cinder-Hiei
Once upon a time there was a grumpy demon named Cinder-Hiei. There wasn't any particular reason for Cinder-Hiei to be so mean and grumpy towards everyone, that's just the way he was.
He did, after all, have a loving sister who was clueless as to his existence, and an idiot future- brother-in-law.
Yep, to most people Cinder-Hiei's life was pretty great. No evil stepmothers (those had been pretty popular lately), no extra chores (even though everyone knew you had to be poor and over-worked to get in a good fairytale), and certainly no romance problems.
While some people, like his friend, Snow-Kurama, had dozens of fangirls flocking to their homes, Cinder-Hiei simply killed off everyone who dared set foot on his property.
This, incidentally, was a tiny cave twelve yards away from the home of the most beautiful princess in the land.
What a coincidence.
Riiiiight.
One day the princess made an announcement in the public square—which (what a coinc-E- dink) was in hearing distance from Cinder-Hiei's bedroom window.
"I am, like, have a ball! Like, so all you hot dudes come, like, to the castle!" She jumped up and down, squealing loudly. "Like, OH MY GAWD! We'll have, LIKE, so much fun. And it's, LIKE, tomorrow night, so have all, LIKE, your totally nice tuxedos ready by then. See ya, LIKE, later!"
In his bedroom, Cinder-Hiei glared in the direction of the castle, and rolled over. How the hell had the most powerful ruler in the land ended up with a blond airhead for a daughter?
Oh well.
Pulling up his quilt, Cinder-Hiei went back to his dreams of death, gore, pain, and suffering.
He was just getting to the good part of the dream, when he felt an unbelievably annoying tap-tap-tap on his shoulder.
"What?" Cinder-Hiei shot a death glare at the intruder.
"I'm your fairy godmother," the little guy said cheerfully. "Uh...I mean godfather. Yeah. That's what I meant. My name's Koenma."
Holding up his wand, he poked Cinder-Hiei's nose.
Cinder-Hiei went a bit cross-eyed.
Stupid fairies...always do stupid things...they should all DIE! He thought to himself.
"There! Much...uh...oops." The fairy shrugged sheepishly.
Hiei looked down, and saw that he was dressed in the most beautiful blue silk gown he'd ever seen. Then again, he hadn't really seen all that many beautiful blue silk gowns before...
And glass slippers. Now that was a little too over the top.
"What did you do to me?"
"Hmmm," Koenma shrugged. "Don't really know. But personality's what counts, right? So you'll be fine."
"Fine where?" Cinder-Hiei looked around for his sword. He could cut the idiotic thing off!
"At the ball, silly." Turning into a coachman, Koenma poofed himself and Cinder-Hiei to a limo that had previously been a squash in Cinder-Hiei's garden.
"Hey! I'd been planning on making stew—"
"You'll get over it." Koenma waved his wand, and made two hit men appear. "Bob? Tom? Please escort Cinder-Hiei into the limo."
And so, scrunched between two over-sized assassins, Cinder-Hiei made his way to the ball.
At the ball, after being lectured on the proper way to behave towards a lady, Cinder-Hiei was released, and free to eat appetizers and participate in small talk.
This wasn't really all that fun for poor Cinder-Hiei. He hadn't had much experience with small talk before.
But that was when the princess spotted him. "OH MY GAWD!" She looked him up and down. He was obviously a cross-dresser, in that gown. But he was a cute cross-dresser. And when they were married, they could, like, do each other's hair! "I choose you to be my husband. Or wife." Cinder-Hiei glared. "Whatever."
"No." Deciding to make his escape, Cinder-Hiei ducked under some lady's hoop skirt, and rushed out the door.
But, unfortunately for him, he had left behind one of his glass slippers...
The next day...
Cinder-Hiei happily got up from his bed, and found Koenma glaring at him from his nightstand.
"What did you think you were—Eeeeeeeeeeeek!"
Koenma flew through the window, and Cinder-Hiei went down to breakfast smirking.
Just as he was sitting down to some well-deserved Coco Puffs, Cinder-Hiei heard someone knocking loudly at his door.
Opening it, he found the princess standing there. "Hiya honey!"
Cinder-Hiei paled. "How did you find me?"
"Well you see, I just, like—"
Slamming the door in her face, Cinder-Hiei gathered up all his clothing.
Packing only his most prized possessions, he moved to Japan, changed his name, and took a part in an action anime.
After chopping off all the princess's hair, of course.
And he lived happily ever after.
"Wow," Cinder-Hiei shook his head. "What a bad ending."
The End
