Authors POV:

After Beast became acquaintances with (Y/n) everyone thought it would be a good idea for everyone to begin rehearsing their acts for the grand opening. 

Especially, Beast and (Y/n) were going to work extra hard. But what Beast doesn't know is that she's going to have a very difficult time "taming" (Y/n) especially in her Tiger form. (Y/n) was wild and therefore did not like to be controlled by anyone. She didn't have a choice though if she wanted someplace to stay and hide out from the Queen and everyone else.

Being obedient and Independent was better than being Controlled and imprisoned. This was better than nothing as well. Doing this will maybe even give her a chance to go back home. Who knows what can happen at this point.

-

Beast and "Betty" are currently on set with no one around but themselves. They needed to be alone if they wanted to concentrate on their act.

"Alright, Betty I won't start off too rash... I'll start off with simple things that way we both can trust each other that nothing bad will happen. Okay?" Beast gazed down at the Tiger waiting for approval.

(Y/n) aggressively nodded once to show she was eager to get started. It was hard to respond since 1) She was a Tiger and 2) She spoke a different language anyway.

"I don't know how I should treat you. But, since you are technically a cat... I suppose I should reward you somehow." Beast then reaches into one of her pockets and pulls out a very small can of sardines. "It's not exactly cat food. But, it isn't favored by many humans either.. I suppose its a very neutral snack. What do you think?" Beast opens the can of Sardines and pulls one out by the tail and holds it out in front of her to see "Betty's" reaction.

Readers POV:

My mouth watered gazing upon the luscious looking fish out in front of me. Fish was my favorite type of meat back home. It also didn't help that I haven't eaten anything since I awoke from my cave. I purred and turned in circles craving the delicious snack before me. 

I saw Beast giggle at my actions and her eyes brightened up. I suppose she thought it wouldn't be too bad working with me.

"Can you Beg for me, Betty?" She asked politely. 

That was a simple order I could follow. So I stood on my back legs and put my paws at together to show mine plead.  She giggled once again and threw the small fish into the air which I caught with ease. 

After chowing down on the fish. I nodded my head once more and stomped one paw on the floor demanding more fish. "Now now Betty. If you want treats you have to do a trick." She kneeled in front of me and looked into my eyes. "We promised to work together remember?" 

I gazed back into her eyes unresponsive. "Now, give me your paw." She said. I held out my paw and she took it into her very small hand. She shook it up and down which confused me. I did not understand what this gesture could mean. "Whenever I say paw you shake my hand like this okay?" She asked. "This means Hello or you're just being kind." She let go my paw and stood up again. "Beg", I begged, I received a sardine. "Paw", I shook, I received a sardine.  "Spin around", I chased my tail, I received a sardine. 

This is how our training continued for the rest of the day. Surprisingly without realizing it. I started to have a better understanding of the English language. It was becoming better by the minute. Even though it was very broken speech I could still be understood.

Going back into human form I shook Beasts hand and gave her a small smile and a "Thank you." I saw how confused she was that I could suddenly speak to her and show her signs of kindness but that was one of the many gifts of being a witch. Just by being around a new language I could learn it in a matter of hours. "I really. would. like. to. thank you. you are. very kind person."

She smiled back. "No, thank you for being there for me as well... I'll be glad to help any way I can."  

Authors POV:

(Y/n) and Beast decided to head back and join the rest of the family. Everyone has gathered around- they all had a very fatigued demeanor. Everyone must have been very tired after the long day of training. Mostly (Y/n) and Beast because they only had the rest of the day to come up with an act. But, they weren't nervous because they planned it out thoroughly and cleaned up any flaws to make their performance stunning. 

"How was did the training go girls? Do you think ya came up with something that'll wow the audience?" Joker walked up to them to with a smile on his face.

"I think we did fantastic for only a day," Beast responded. "Don't you think so too Betty?" 

(Y/n) beamed back at Beast. "Yes, yes. Perfect." She responded with her broken English again. Also surprising Joker. "When did the Las' learn English Beast?" He asked puzzled. "I was surprised myself. I guess it was just from all the training she picked up some of it. Either way... I think it's pretty amazing. It'll definitely make things simpler."  

Joker chuckled. "Ah, I see that's very impressive if I mus' say. It took me years to even speak half as good as I am now. Well, I'm glad it worked out well for you Beast. I'm looking forward to tomorrow." With that Joker walked off leaving the two alone. 

"Ah, Betty... we have a cage left. I don't know if you would like to share a bed with me. I don't want you to sleep outside in the cold." 

(Y/n) smiled and turned back to her Tiger form. Sleeping outside wasn't a problem for her. Being in her human form would just make her uneasy. 

Beast led her outside and into the cage where (Y/n) stepped in. Beast closed the cage and wish her a good night before walking off into the tents. (Y/n) turned a few times before laying down in a comfortable spot. She breathed softly before closing her eyes drifting off to sleep.

A tear dropped down from one of her eyes and fell onto the metal flooring of the cage.

She really missed being home.
