but even after all of this, the two uly step sisters werent nearly as lovely as cinderella was in her rags. this made them both very jelous and very angry, and they began to tease her.
" too bad you cant come to the ball, cinders!" sneered the first stepsister.
"yes," laughed the other one. "they'd never let a shabby creature like like you near the palace!"
cinderella said nothing, but inside, her heart was breakihg. she realyy wanted to go to the ball. after the sisters left, she sat and swept.

"dry your tears, my dear," said a gentle voice. cinderella was amazed. a kind old lady stood before her.
"only joking! your step sisters sent me to make sure that the prince never see's you." the lady said. her dress turned black and she cackled.
"my magic wand i hold in my hand turn this girl into a toad."
suddenly everything seemed very big and tall to cinderella. but it was her that had changed. cinderella had shrunk. she tried calling for help but all that came out of her mouth was a loud "CROAK!"

"looks like shes gone and ran off!"
"at last she's gone." the mother cried.

"im not wanted here." she thought and hopped off. she found a nice pond and it happened to be in the palace garden. so she sort of got her happy ending. if you call it happy.
