When Mai finished her chores,
General POV
Tonight was to be the first night of the Masquerade. And Mai had just finished all the chores Luella had assigned her. So now she went to tell Luella.
"Luella, I've finished the chores." Mai told her.
"Oh, well just one more thing then. Go prepare us some tea, then help us into our dresses. Then if we deem you presentable, you can go."
"Alright." Mai said. Then she was off. She headed into the kitchen and started boiling the water. She then remembered those special tea leaves that had freed Madoka. Maybe there was some still left.
She opened the cabinet, and sure enough, they were still there. She grabbed them and made the tea. Then moments later she was pouring the tea into Masako and Luella's cups. Then she walked away to see if she had anything decent to wear. She opened her tiny wardrobe (remember she doesn't know that her friends made her dresses! ) and saw mostly plain outfits and she sighed. But then she saw her navy blue dress and the mask her mother left for her to inherit. Maybe she would fit it. So she tried it on. It was a perfect fit. But she then quickly took it off and headed to Masako and Luella's chambers to help them into their first dresses.
First she helped Luella get into her first dress (the light green one from the last chapter) and it's matching mask. Then she helped Masako get into her first dress ( the pale pink one from the last chapter) with it's matching mask.
Mai's POV
Now I can finally get into my dress and mask. I ran to my room put them on and rushed back down. The second I came down Masako started screeching "HIDEOUS! IT'S HIDEOUS!"
"I have to agree with my daughter, Mai. It is HIDEOUS. Allow us to make some adjustments." Then she smirked and gestured for Masako to come over to me with her. Then they started tearing at my dress and messing up my hair.
"STOP! PLEASE!" I pleaded. But it was no use. They ruined my mothers dress. It was the only suitable thing I had in my wardrobe.
"Someone has to teach you a lesson for trying to disgrace us." Luella said icily. Then she snapped her fingers and one of the punishers stepped forward. He then grabbed my right hand and smashed my wrist into the doorway. I fell over in pain. But Luella wasn't done with me. She walked over and stepped on my injured wrist. Hard. I cried out. I also heard a snap.
"Goodbye Mai."
I just lay there clutching my wrist. I then burst into tears. They ruined my mothers dress. They injured me. Everything was going wrong, but then my friends came in.
John called out "Mai, are you alright?"
I replied "I don't know any more... I just don't know..."
I didn't see them walk in, I just knew it was them because of the mouse sounds. Ayako, Yasu and Monk all called out "Mai, we made you some really pretty dresses and masks for the ball, but Chester wrecked them."
I turned to face them. "No." I said.
John, Monk,Yasu and Ayako all replied at the same time "WHAT?"
I said "They can't just wreck your work too! I'm done with that! I'm sick of dealing with them!" Then I pulled the gold ribbon off of my wrist and wished that Madoka would appear. I wished that she would help us.
Then suddenly the room was filled with sparkles and when it cleared, sure enough the pink haired fairy was standing there. She took one look at me and gasped.
"Oh my gosh! What happened to you? No wait don't answer that, I already know. But I can help you and your friends!" squealed Madoka.
"Can you help us get ready for the ball?" I asked.
"Of course!" she replied.
General POV
(A/N: I know, only part of the song will actually be the real song, so please don't critisize me! I can't remember most of it from the movie! I also changed some of the words and stuff. There will be parts where they're talking in the song and the song will be in italics like this and the "talking will look like this" so the let the magic begin! :) (: )
A little magic would do me good
A little magic would do them good
A little magic would do YOU good!
"Oh, hmm... What is that spell?" asked Madoka.
Is it...
Clickety?
Maybe Clackety?
Or Rickety Rackety?
"What about Bippity?" asked John, "I read a spell book once and I heard about you. Isn't that your spell?"
"Oh! You're right! My bad!" Madoka exclaimed.
Grab a little Bippity!
Put it through my wand
Oh mice, you poor darlings!
Rise once more, stand as you were before!
Add a little Boppity!
Put it with the Bippity in my wand
Oh dear, you need a carriage, a coach and some lovely horses!
Pour in the final ingredient, Boo!
Add it in my wand
Now all of you need something to wear,
"Since I'm only Mai's fairy godmother, I can easily provide you with your clothes out of air! But for her...I need something else to make better!" cried Madoka.
"I know! Lets get the ripped gold dress and mask!" exclaimed Ayako.
So off went the mice. Who would soon be human again. They grabbed the gold dress and the matching mask and hurried back. They told Mai to go change into it. She did (slowly because of her wrist)
Put them together and what have you got?
Bippity! Boppity! Boo!
Fix her hair, fix her attire!
Create that carriage before I retire!
Bipptity! Boppity! Boo!
Turn those mice into humans once more!
Give her friends lovely attire, accessories and galore!
Put them together and what have you got?
Bippity! Boppity! Boo!
Put them together and what have you got?
A wonderful evening and a wrist fixed for tonight!
Suddenly Ayako, Monk and Yasu started to glow and sparkle. All you could see of them was their shapes. Then they started to get bigger and get human shapes. Then there was one more flash of light and instead of mice standing there, were 3 people. Ayako was a tall young woman with red hair and brown eyes. Monk was a tall young man with longish blonde hair and twinkling brown eyes. And finally Yasu, he was also a young man, but he was younger than Monk and Ayako. He had black hair and brown eyes. He wore Spectacles (AKA glasses).
Mai and John gasped while Madoka laughed.
"Well now it looks like it's time for the carriage!" Madoka enthused.
Then there was a flash out side and a pumpkin in the vegetable patch became a golden carriage. It appeared to be made of real gold.
"Is that...you know, REAL GOLD?" asked a very shocked Mai.
"Of course! What else would it be! I don't rip off my charges!" Madoka giggled.
The carriage was plain gold with 4 white glossy horses ready to pull the carriage.
Then John, Ayako, Monk and Yasu started to glow (again) and when the sparkles subsided... They were wearing the most fashionable outfits and hairstyles of their time period. (I'm leaving them up to your imaginations, so be creative!)
Then Mai started to glow and shimmer. Her golden dress and mask became made of real gold (woven into a soft lovely fabric like silk of course) her hair was styled in a beautiful way, with a lovely golden hair clip pinning it up. Her shoes were made of soft flexible gold that was perfect for walking or dancing. And the golden ribbon was on her right wrist wrapped in a lovely bow (the ribbon was also made of flexible gold).
"As you can tell, your wrist is healed. For now. Anyways, most of the magic ends at midnight. So be careful." Madoka warned.
"What do you mean by most?" question Monk.
"Well, since Luella and Masako would notice if Mai's wrist healed suddenly, that will stop at midnight. You guys being human again will also stop at midnight. The horse drawn carriage will stop at midnight. Basically the only thing that won't stop at midnight is Mai's outfit and hair style." Madoka replied cheerfully.
"So get going!" Madoka happily shouted, shoving them all into the carriage. Then it took off. They were all so excited. But Mai still managed to remember that Monk, Ayako and Yasu were talking mice and asked them about it.
"Well it was the curse that you have to break. We can't say anymore though." said Yasu.
So the carriage drove swiftly and smoothly to the castle.
Meanwhile at the Castle,
General POV
Naru was starting to get annoyed. After all this was Genes idea. He was supposed to see Mai here, so where was she?
No, he hadn't talked to all the potential brides lined up, coming forward to greet him, when Lin called their name. But still he was getting impatient. Wouldn't you be, if all these fake people came forwards pretending to be your friends?
He had friends but they just disapeared. What if Mai disapeared on him too? He knew that he shouldn't think like that, but he just couldn't help it.
There was only six potential brides left, Mai had to be one of them right?
Wrong. There were no more potential brides left to greet him. The dancing started. Even though they were all wearing masks, he would be able to tell which one was her right?
What if he had been introduced to her but didn't notice? What if she didn't show up? What if- but his worries were cut off when someone tapped him on the shoulder and said "Long time no see, at least with us in human form."
He turned around and saw that it was Yasu, Ayako, Monk and John. They were wearing (whatever your creative minds came up with) and Naru was wearing some kind of navy blue whatever guys wore in that time. He then turned around moments later when hel heard the crowd gasp. That's when he saw what he was looking for. Or rather who he was looking for. It was Mai, in her gold dress and mask, but he could still tell it was her.
Even if Lin hadn't drilled him on what to do with late potential brides, Naru still would have gone over there and introduced himself (well since he already knew her, he would have greeted her). So he walked over to her and bowed. She curtsied. Then Naru held out his hand to her and asked "Would you like to dance?"
Midnight: Woot! A cliff hanger! Will Mai say yes? Will she say no? You'll find out next time in Fairy Tale Series Part 1: Cinderella chap 6!
Sour: Shut up already! We all know that she's gonna say yes!
Cookies: It is kinda obvious Midnight! Well anyways since no one reviewed yet...I have to try and kill you!
Midnight and Sour: AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Cookies: PLZ R&R!
