Beauty and the Beast

Blake

Once upon a time in a faraway land, a young princess lived in a shining castle. Although she had everything her heart desired, the princess was spoiled, selfish, and unkind. But then, one winter's night, an old beggar man came to the castle and offered her a single rose in return for shelter from the bitter cold. Repulsed by his haggard appearance, the princess sneered at the gift and turned to old man away. But he warned her not to be deceived by appearances for beauty was found within.

And when she dismissed him again, the old man's ugliness melted away to reveal a handsome enchantment. The princess tried to apologize but it was too late, for he had seen that there was no love in her heart, and as punishment, he transformed her into a hideous Beast and placed a powerful spell on the castle, and all who lived there. Ashamed of her monstrous form, the Beast concealed herself inside her castle with a magic mirror as her only window to the outside world. The rose he had offered was truly an enchanted rose, which will bloom until her twenty-first year. If she could learn to love another and earn their love in return by the time the last petal fell, then the spell would be broken. If not, she would be doomed to remain a Beast for all time As the years passed, she fell into despair and lost all hope, for who could truly love a Beast?

Now in the present, Blake steps out of her house wearing a white and blue dress with a basket walking so innocently, with the birds chirping in the background she couldn't help but sing her usual day. 

Blake: "Little Town it's a quiet village. Every day like the one before. Little town full of little people waking up to say...  "

Just as she was about to continue people from the village started to sing along.

"Bonjour!"

"Bonjour!"

"Bonjour!"

"Bonjour!"

"Bounjor!"

Blake continues, "There goes the baker with his tray, like always. The same old bread and rolls to sell. Every morning's just the same since the morning that we came to this poor provincial town..." "Good morning, Blake!" says the baker as sees Blake pass by his shop. "Good morning, Monsieur" approaching the Baker. "Where are you off to?" "The bookshop! I just finished the most wonderful story, about a man with two souls and-" interrupted by the baker "Yeah that's nice, Maire! The baguettes! Hurry up!" Ignoring the fact that the baker was ignoring her, she carried on her stroll downtown.

"Look there she goes, that girl is strange, no question. Dazed and distracted, can't you tell? Never part of any crowd. Cause her head's up on some cloud. No denying she's a funny girl that Blake" Blake hops on the back of a wagon to get there faster.

"Bonjour!"

"Good day!"

"How is your family?"

"Bonjour!"

"Good day!"

"How is your wife?" With that question, the seller gets hit on the head by his wife with a rolling pin.

"I need six eggs!" women carrying at least six or seven babies

"That's too expensive"

Blake sings, "There must be more than this provincial life!" Hopping off the wagon to enter the bookshop. "Ah, Blake." says the bookseller. "Good morning, I've come to return the book I borrowed." "Finished already?" "Oh, I couldn't put it down. Have you got anything new?" bookseller laughs while he responds "Not since yesterday." As Blake steps up to the ladder to reach the high shelf "That's alright. I'll borrow this one." picking out the book 'Ninjas of Love'. Bookseller looking closely at the cover "That one? But you've read it twice!" "Well, it's my favorite!" Blake swings on the ladder, making it roll down its track "Far off places, daring swordfights, magic spells, a princess in disguise." "Well if you like it so much then it is yours." "But sir!" "Really Blake I insist!" "Well thank you, thank you very much!" Blake now leaving the bookshop

Three that were looking through the window, now look at Blake walking away. "Look there she goes that girl is so peculiar! I wonder if she's feeling well. With a dreamy far-off look! And her nose stuck in a book! What a puzzle to the rest of us is Blake" Blake sits on the edge of the town fountain, singing to sheep and the washing woman in the background, who leaves.

"Oh isn't this amazing! It's my favorite part because you'll see! Here's where she meets Princess Charming. But she won't discover that it's her 'til chapter three!" A man chasing his sheep away and Blake now leaving the fountain. "Now it's no wonder that her name means 'beauty'. Her looks have got no parallel. But behind that fair facade. I'm afraid she's rather odd. Very different from the rest of us...She's nothing like the rest of us is Blake"

Geese now flying overhead. A slash is heard and one of the geese plummets to the ground. A girl named Ilia runs over and holds a bag out to catch the fallen bird. She missed it. She hastily shoves the Goose in the bag and hurries back over to the one and only Adam Taurus. "Woah! You didn't miss a shot, Adam! You're the greatest!" Adam puts his sword away while responding "I know." "Huh. No beast alive stands a chance against you! Hahaha! And no girl, for that matter!" Stopping their track Adam talks back while picking up Ilia by the neck "It's true, Ilia. And I've got my sights set on that one!" pointing his weapon towards Blake "Wait, the inventor's daughter?" "She's the one! The lucky girl I'm going to marry." "But she's-" dropping Ilia "The most beautiful girl in town" "I know but OWW!" hitting Ilia in the eye with his weapon "That makes her the best. And don't I deserve the best?" "Well, of course, I mean you do, but I mean" Adam starts to sing as well.

"Right from the moment when I met her, saw her. I said she's gorgeous and I fell. Here in town, there's only she. Who is beautiful as me. So I'm making plans to woo and marry Blake." While Adam sees Blake walking by and away, Adam does the same but behind her. While three random girls see him and start to come overjoyed.

"Look there he goes, isn't he dreamy. Monsieur Adam, oh he's so cute. Be still my heart, I'm hardly breathing. He's such a tall, dark, strong, and handsome brute"

Blake walks easily through the crowd of people in town, while Adam struggles to catch up to her

"Bonjour!"

"Pardon!"

"Good day!"

"Mais oui!"

"You call this bacon?"

"What lovely grapes!"

"Some cheese!"

"Ten yards!"

"One pound"

"'xcuse me!"

"I'll get the knife!"

"Please let me through!"

"This bread!"

"Those fish!"

"It's stale!"

"They smell!"

"Madame's mistaken!"

"There must be more than this provincial life!" Blake sings loud spinning around with a wonderous look. "Just watch I'm going to make Blake my wife!" Now all the townsfolk gather around Adam and eventually surround him.

"Look there she goes a girl who's strange but special! A most peculiar mademoiselle" Now Adam attempting to climb the roofs of homes to reach Blake faster "It's a pity and a sin. She doesn't quite fit in!" But she really is a funny girl. A beauty but a funny girl. She really is a funny girl! That Blake!" With the singing ending Blake turns around when the people return to their normal routine of the day. And Blake was about to head home until he cut in.
