I inhaled the air, sweat, blood, cheers, and adrenaline. A small smirk appeared on my face, as I focused on the scene that was developing right in front of me. The ring was being cleaned, from the last match, and that only meant that Beast was about to come out and prove to the world how you have to fight.
I fixed my jacket and made sure that I was in sight for Orin to keep an eye on me, after all, he is my godfather and he promised my father that he was going to protect me. It wasn't like I was in danger, everyone knew that I was Beauty, Beast's daughter, and those who even thought of doing something to me would have to face the wrath of my father, and well, mine as well.
The roars of cheer became louder, and his signature song started playing, Hells Bells- AC/DC, joining the rest of the crowd, I stood up in my seat and started shouting. Beast gave one look to the crowd, and once he stopped on me, he gave me his special wink, and our signal, claws. I returned the signal, and he was all ready to fight.
The cheers never died, once the fight started, in fact, they became louder. Punch, jab, skip, double punch, uppercut, evade, backward kick. Pum. The opponent, Danger, was on the floor. My father turned to face me and we both smirked, this was going to be easy. The first round was done, and as the referee signalled for the second round, something caught my attention, the crazy look on Danger's face, I became unsure, there was something wrong.
Climbing down the bleachers, I shouted and shouted scared for my father. And just as I arrived to Orin, my father was already on the floor, his dead eyes trained on me.
"DAD!" I shouted as I climbed into the ring, kneeling right next to him. "Come on, Beast, come on, don't do this. I need you, don't you dare leave me with the Enchantress!" I cried.
"Belle!" Orin shouted. "Move, Belle, come on baby," He whispered as he cradled me into his chest. "He is not waking up."
And just like Orin said, he never woke back up.
