Author's Note:

I had this story in my mind for a while, wanted to write it down for a long time. I always wonder if fairies ever made a mistake, or you know, if they patched up like, you know, the way it always goes normally. With the girls (or boys) having a bad past NOT involving love.

So, I thought that maybe that would be a great twist.

Hope you like it, and also excuse the minor errors if you found any, they are truly and sincerely unintentional.

Critisism and constructive reviews are welcomed, and also reviews about the story is very well appreciated.

Without any further ado, here is the first chapter!

Enjoy!


Gracefully Mistaken

Chapter 1

"Sorry, Fairy God Mother. You may have helped the beast, Cinderella, Aurora, and many others to find love." the now orange haired young teenage lady whispered staring longingly at the beautiful night sky. The shimmering tiny pink kind woman in her sparkling wings passed a sympathetic look.

Kyoko Mogami was the only girl in their list that had such a mishap. Her soulmate according to the fairytale was supposed to be a certain blond man.

His reputation was that of a huge star, but he declined her faster than slaughtering an animal. She had gone to parties, tried sleeping in her room like Aurora after having a chat with him to see if he would ever get the urge to kiss her.

But he simply confessed that she wasn't anything that he wanted. He desired women that were more…. desirable, who didn't have limitations. She felt like a fooled toddler, after being tricked into loving someone following the guidelines of the last fairy godmother.

In the last century, the other two fairies died due to a spell gone wrong; causing the world biggest tragedy in the magical world Kyoko lived in.

Kyoko had never known about it, would never even know that she could see the disaster of her own tale.

"I'm sorry. Dear Kyoko. But I can't leave you alone like this. Not when there is a witch on the loose since the last few decades; a reincarnation of snow white's step mother, mixture of all the evil human beings that ever lived in that century is adjoined in one soul. If she ever found out about you, a beautiful woman blooming; she would try to ruin you for good.

And destroy this magical place for good." She mumbled sadly, watching as the young pure maiden tried to hide the tears sliding down her cheeks.

"I am cursed, am I not?" she accused, sending a panicked look over the fairy. The fairy sighed, raising her wand.

"I wish you to be safe, child. Sofia died way young and I don't wish another dear child to die so soon in such a brutal way." She cupped her cheeks in a motherly way.

Kyoko missed her mother's presence, before she was caught in the incurable illness cast by Skodny. And her father dying in a battlefield he was tricked due to a false accusation.

Kyoko closed her eyes, facing the red clothed fairy one last time; ready to be transformed to another being to protect the lineage of an innocent, pure and the ideal woman to be followed. Her maturity added the glow of beauty shining from within.

"Dear Wand, Dear Wand, Transform this beauty,

to someone only a kind heart can undo,

Hidden from the clutches of Skodny,

Only to come out victorious by true love"

Before Kyoko could protest about the last line, the golden light surrounded her, her face gaining a large patch across her mouth from her left eye. Her hands looked as if she was covered with deathly skin disease.

Tears continually fell on her now heavily ugly hands. There was no way she would ever find true love.

At least Beast was lucky to have coincidentally meet Bella's father.

But Kyoko was no Beast, she had a kind heart—even approved by the Queen Fairy herself. Only Queen Fairy had no time to guide Kyoko anymore as she had to find a way to kill Skodny.

Fairy Godmother watched the amber eyed woman's pain. She was scarred, wounded by the way her love was brutally rejected.

She looked over at her destiny book, feeling guilty.

"I'm sorry Kyoko. I'm sorry for trying to find love for you again."

She evaporated as soon as the day started to fade, hoping with all her might that her spells work again like they used to for this beautiful emotion.

o0o0o

She peered outside her carriage as she was being transported to the large two-story building that looked a million years old.

Kyoko had to admit, it was perfect for her if she wanted to live all alone; safe from an evil woman who was set to destroy the magical world to make people worship her and revolve the world around her. She was a formula of revenge for all her fellow sisters that fell before her.

"Um…. mademoiselle? I—its okay if you d-don't p-pay." the man was so nervous, Kyoko couldn't help but feel all the more miserable.

Without a word, her hand surfed through her only cash and she thrust it in his hand, who, was wiping his hand vigorously where she had touched him.

She even remembered the look other townsfolks gave her as soon as she emerged from some alley; safely sneaking out of her home.

They were terrified, women hiding their children between their gowns, men cowering in fear as she was taken to the far-off castle-like building that had not a single soul residing in it.

Sighing, she held her bag in one hand, trying hard not to cry from the lack of companionship, even when she was a citizen of the same town herself. Everyone knew her bakery, everyone knew how famous her food had become. But no one knew that underneath all this…. this disease was the same sweet Kyoko desperate for love and comfort.

"Welcome, Kyoko." she jumped, frightened out of her wits when she heard that noise. It came from an enchanted box, holding the shiniest glow. It had gems and precious stones carved over it, gold on the top designed in a fashion to represent something of it's kind.

Stealthily, her approached uncertain; the box spoke yet again:

"Fear not, Kyoko. I'm Kanae, your companion throughout your life; warner and protector." a large shimmering form flickered to life in front of her eyes, a fragile image of a maiden as beautiful as a flower spreading its sweet nectar.

Her face was angular, stern and held no humor in her eyes. There was a glow in her hair, tied up by a large pin on her side which Kyoko assumed that must be holding a lot of hair. Her figure was the one that people desire, curvy in the right places. Shotaro would have begged her to marry him if he'd seen her.

"B—but I—" I didn't ask for anything, was what she wanted to say.

Kanae held an authorative hand.

"Let's get used to this life, shall we? Maybe then you'd figure out if you really asked for anything or not." she said, without a smile. She was undoubtedly talented, but Kyoko knew why.

She knew why she was being taught because—because no matter how many times she would hope she would get her Prince Charming, she was no Cinderella.

She was Kyoko.

o0o0o

"They, will clear the tables. The brooms are enchanted but they don't speak. You can either look into the well of vanity to check out for trespassers." Kanae stated, making sure Kyoko was listening to every word.

There was a moment when Kyoko started sobbing, wishing she was back in her bakery, bustling and moving around while listening to the cheerful hubbub of the people.

She wished, wished with all her might to get her life back.

Kanae took her leave, as soon as she was satisfied. However, Kyoko saw how she didn't look at her disgusted. Rather, she thought she saw a twinge of sympathy in her pretty blue eyes.

Maybe, just maybe she might be warming up to her.

o0o0o

"Kyoko, how many times should I tell you to not use the kitchen? Besides, your desserts make me float like a balloon for a day!" Kanae exclaimed as the blueberry cheesecake was presented to her on the table.

Kyoko tried to smile, but her face couldn't. She still felt melancholy although she found the comfort of a companion throughout the last year of her stay. But her heart couldn't move, like it was frozen in time. She tried to adore her with all her might, like she used to till she turned eighteen, but now that she was deprived of love, she couldn't help but feel mournful of her fate.

Kanae was soon leaving her, her job done to get Kyoko to settle down. It was difficult, but worth it as Kanae got attached to the pixie woman who had a heart of an ocean, precious diamond.

"Hey, Kyoko. Stop with that disgusting face already. It's pissing me off." Kanae couldn't help but watch her drown in the self doubt and pity she felt.

That, was something she couldn't do. It was someone else's job. Kanae looked at the sky, the queen fairy watching them.

"When will Kyoko be happy?"

The question wasn't answered.

o0o0o

"Kyoko dear, lunch is ready. Would you like to have it in your room, or…"

"It's fine, Cedric. please leave the food in my room." she mumbled, still staring at the fire cackling in the fireplace.

Cedric the stand sighed, he could use one of his hooks—long—to help with the serving like a true butler. It has been two years since his lady had a smile on her face, stepped out of the boundaries of this trapped reality.

He wished if someone would ever cross the invisible barrier and come across this land, brave enough to trudge on the path that would at least bring temporary comfort to his mistress.

So long, no one had done so far. Cedric had already given up with just a little hope kindling in his heart.

Kyoko Mogami, can never be loved again, as far as people feared and hated her.
