Cursed Beauty

Inside The Letter and Lurking Danger

               Gaston went to see LeFou he asked him for the letter to which LeFou wondered how he knew Gaston said "I saw it last night but you didn't give it to me" he said "Are you sure you want it? It was written by Briar" he said "Yes I'm sure" he handed it to him and Gaston went to reading it he still remembered the dream and now reading the letter he knew what she meant he was finished and turned to look at LeFou he said "I'm going after her" he said "Gaston, you don't where she is? Or where she went?" he said "No, but I know someone who does and I will face anything or anyone to have her back with me come heaven or hell she will be my wife and I will be her husband" LeFou said "Okay, I'm coming with you to make sure you don't get hurt or worse". They came to the castle they saw Belle out and about looking at the scenery she noticed them there LeFou got down playing mediator between the two he said "Do you know where Briar's parent's kingdom is?" she said "I don't but my husband does" looking at Gaston who seemed focused she said "Hello Gaston" he said "Belle" LeFou said "Briar gave me a letter to give to Gaston explaining everything" Belle said "I figured she would, she has had a rough life but she does deserve happiness even if it's with Gaston, I wouldn't deprive him of that given everything of late" LeFou said "So a map?" she said "Of course, I'll be right back". Belle came back with a map with directions on it she handed it to LeFou who got back on his horse she said "When you find her tell her I'm thinking of her and I hope she get's her happy ending" he said "Will do" she glanced at Gaston who was trying not to show emotions of any kind she said "Paige, is a lucky girl I'm happy you two found each other and I hope you would love each other just the same" Gaston said "Thank you" the two rode off on their journey to finding Princess Paige. Little did they know that danger lurked around every corner and it had vengeance on it's mind.

              Lady Tremaine and The Grand Duke they were at a village from being ousted by King Henry II Kit and Queen Ella as well as her daughters Anastasia and Drizella the two were talking over drinks on the one person who got in their way and it wasn't Ella but Princess Paige. The Grand Duke said "That girl was trouble, and she cost me everything" she said "She had to ruin my girl's chances of being nobility" he said "Imagine her away from King Kit's kingdom she be vulnerable to any attack" Lady Tremaine said "If we do see her again she will know that I'm not forgiving when she entered my life" they clanked their glasses of liquor he said "I would drink to that day". Paige's carriage pulled up to that same village where the people came to see who has taken a leave in their home of course Anastasia and Drizella reported back to the two that a royal carriage is in the village Lady Tremaine said "I guess we could see who it is after all they may need some guidance" The Grand Duke said "Of course they do". Paige still in the carriage she was still thinking about Gaston and the dreamscape where he proposed to her and she accepted that brought feeling to her sadness Sir Bromley said "You want to stretch your legs?" she said "Sure" he helped her out of the carriage she was offered gifts by the people she thanked them and smelled the flowers thinking of Gaston when she saw a little girl by her lonesome she gave a single rose to her she said "For me?" she said "Everyone needs some beauty in their life, why not you?" she took it and hugged her Anastasia told her mom the royal is a princess she said "Well, a princess no doubt needs guidance and that means power". While The Grand Duke went to investigate the carriage but some of the villagers made sure no one came near it so he was thwarted nonetheless. Paige saw a lute player she wanted to play it and the guy allowed her to she strumming it when several of the people started dancing she handed it back and joined in

she stopped and went with Sir Bromley toward the carriage when she was stopped by the little girl earlier she said "For you princess, so you can have beauty in your life" tears fell from her face seeing this girl return the rose to her was uncanny and sweet she hugged her and rose back up locking eyes with a older middle-aged man he looked like he was worn out and tired but his outfit was familiar like he was of some importance he bowed to her she nodded and turned 

away she got in the carriage while he had a wicked smile on his face and was surprised to see that fate was rewarding to him and vengeance will be soon at last. The carriage took off Sir Bromley said "That was refreshing wasn't it?" she said "Yes it was" she was trying to picture where she seen that man before or his outfit she took a nap against the carriage wall she remembered that pesky man that followed the King her uncle around she remembered his clothing when she jolted awake scared Sir Bromley said "Princess, you okay?" she said "How far are we to home dear uncle?" he said "We should be there in two days if everything goes right, why?" she said "That man that bowed to me before I got in the carriage" he said "What of him?" she said "I didn't think of it then but now I know who he is" he saw she had fear on her face he said "Princess who is he?" she said "The Grand Duke, he knows I'm here not protected by Kit and that I'm vulnerable" he said "He wouldn't dare lay a hand on you?" she said "Uncle, he and Lady Tremaine were banished from Kit's kingdom that means they can be quite dangerous together and there's only you, me and the coachman" he said "I'll make sure we pick up the pace" she said "We have no idea what they plan on doing to me, but I fear it will be worse than my curse". The Grand Duke was sitting merry at a table when Lady Tremaine greeted him she said "What you smiling about? The carriage left and I still don't know who the princess was" he poured her a drink he said "But I do?" she said "You do?" he said "What can I tell you about getting your revenge on that princess who ruined our lives?" she said "Depends if she left King Kit and Queen Ella's kingdom" he said "That carriage that left here, she was the princess in it she didn't recognize me when village girl gave her a rose but I bet she won't know until after our plans" she smiled she said "To revenge" he said "To righting the wrongs done to us".
