Cinderella

Last week in my Comm 160 class we had to write a fairy tale in news story format. Here is  my news story version of Cinderella.

DREAMS DO COME TRUE
A young slave girl became a princess after marrying the prince of the Enchanted Forest last Monday. A girl known as Cinderella was swept off her feet when the prince asked her to marry him. Cinderella lived with her step-mother, and two step-sisters after her father died. Her step-mother quickly put her to work after her father died believing she wasn’t useful for anything else.
The prince of the Enchanted Forest hosted a ball in order to find a wife. All people of the Forest were to be invited, but Cinderella’s step-mother believed Cinderella did not belong at this ball. Her step-mother ordered her to stay home and clean the house from top to bottom.
After the rest of the family left, Cinderella noticed something happening outside. As she went to she what it was a women appeared. Her fairy-godmother had come to make her dreams come true. With a wave of her magic wand the fairy-godmother said “Bibbity bobbity boo”. Cinderella clothes transformed into beautiful gown, and a pumpkin transformed into a carriage to take her to the ball. The fairy god-mother then said “Be careful, all magic comes with a price. Make sure you are back before midnight because all this will be back to normal.”
Once Cinderella got to the ball she danced with the prince, who fell in love with her at first sight. Before he could ask for her name Cinderella had to run off because it was almost midnight. She ran so fast she left her glass slipper behind, and it was the only thing the prince had to remember her by.

The next day the prince sent out every man in the castle to scour the land to find the girl that fit the glass slipper. Finally, Cinderella was found and she married the prince.
