Once upon a time there lived an unhappy girl. Her name was Cinderella, her mother was dead, and her dad had married an evil witch with two daughter’s. Her stepmother didn't like her one little bit. All her kind thoughts and loving touches were for her own daughters. Nothing was too good for them - dresses, shoes, delicious food, soft beds, and every home comfort. But, for the poor unhappy girl, there was nothing at all. No dresses, only her stepsisters’ hand-me-downs. No lovely dishes, nothing but scraps. No rest and no comfort. She had to work hard all day. Only when evening came was she allowed to sit for a while by the fire, near the cinders. That’s why everybody called her Cinderella. Cinderella used to spend long hours all alone talking to the cat. The cat said,. Miaow. , which really meant,. Cheer up! You have something neither of your stepsisters has and that is beauty.. It was quite true. Cinderella, even dressed in old rags, was a lovely girl. While her stepsisters, no matter how splendid and elegant their clothes, were still clumsy, lumpy and ugly and always would be. One beautiful day, she went out to feed the talking pigs who were leaving their mother to build their own houses the first pig built his house out of straw the second pig built his house out of sticks and the third pig built his house out of bricks. After they were finished they decided to go for a walk on the way they saw a castle with a pretty lady singing out the window and thy thought that this was their destiny to save the beautiful lady so they gathered everyone to have a ball to detracted the witch that was keeping her locked up so they did that. They sent out invitations to everyone in the city making sure everyone was invited. ( Ring ) the door bell had rang so Cinder’s went to check the door and she and found that the new dresses arrived at the house with a letter saying. A ball was to be held at the palace and the stepsisters were getting ready to go. Cinderella ask if she could go too. She knew very well what the answer would be You? You're staying at home to wash the dishes, scrub the floors and turn down the beds for your stepsisters. They will come home tired and very sleepy.. Cinderella sighed,. Oh dear, I'm so unhappy!. and the cat murmured. Miaow.. Suddenly something amazing happened. As Cinderella was sitting all alone, there was a burst of light and a fairy appeared. . Don't be alarmed, Cinderella,. said the fairy. . I know you would love to go to the ball. And so you shall!. . How can I, dressed in rags?. Cinderella replied. . The servants will turn me away!. The fairy smiled. With a flick of her magic wand Cinderella found herself wearing the most beautiful dress she had ever seen. . Now for your coach,. said the fairy; "A real lady would never go to a ball on foot! Quick! Get me a pumpkin!. . Oh of course,. said Cinderella, rushing away. Then the fairy turned to the cat. . You, bring me seven mice, and, remember they must be alive!. Cinderella soon returned with the pumpkin and the cat with seven mice he had caught in the cellar. With a flick of the magic wand the pumpkin turned into a sparkling coach and the mice became six white horses, while the seventh mouse turned into a coachman in a smart uniform and carrying a whip. Cinderella could hardly believe her eyes. Cinderella had a wonderful time at the ball and their in the corner was a lady with a um...beast 0000. She was yelling at him. the beast picked her up and threw her through the roof.  The beast was just about to leave when he stumbled over Cinderella. She said “sorry” and asked him why he was leaving. He said “ I sort of got in a fight with my girlfriend”. “So you threw her through the roof” “yup” “do you want dance” “ OK ” So they danced and they danced until she heard the first stroke of midnight! She remembered what the fairy had said, and without a single word of goodbye she slipped from the beasts arms and ran down the steps. As she ran she lost one of her slippers, but not for a moment did she dream of stopping to pick it up! If the last stroke of midnight were to sound... oh... what a disaster that would be! Out she fled and vanished into the night and as she ran the beast appeared in front of her ‘what do you want’ ‘all is not lose pretty face’ .The Beast, who was now madly in love with her, picked up the slipper and said to his Beast friends, “Go and search everywhere for the girl whose foot this slipper fits. I will never be content until I find her!” So the Beast friends tried the slipper on the foot of every girl in the land until only Cinderella was left. That awful untidy girl simply cannot have been at the ball,. snapped the stepmother. . Tell the Beast he ought to marry one of my two daughters! Can't you see how ugly Cinderella is?. But, to everyone’ s amazement, the shoe fitted perfectly. Then the beast friends said, "Come with us Cinderella! The Beast is waiting for you." As soon as Cinderella gets to the beasts cave she gasps in horror and thought “Why would such a nice beast live in such a dark damp place that smells like dead fish”? He walked out and said “hello” Cinderella replied with a “hello” back. She asked the question that she had thought up in her head. He said “ What, this is just a disuse my actual house is in the cave a bit more. See I'm the prince of the land off far far away. My castle is in side the mountain behind us. Just then the beast turned in to a handsome prince and proposed to Cinderella. So Cinderella married the Prince and lived happily ever. As for the cat, he just said "Miaow!" The End
