Belle is running through the forest trying to get away from Gaston's Father. He is trying to marry her. Unfortunately, Belle's father was forced to go to war by Gaston's father. She knows Gaston is in love with her too. He knows she is not in love with him. But he helped her escape with Le Fou helping him Fighting his father, his man and his own brothers. buying her time to escape. Belle knows how ruthless Gaston's father is. He killed 9 of his wife's for getting too old and ugly. but to him he thinks all women are tools only for display and the bedroom. If Belle's father was still here, he would say no to the wedding. But he is not here to stop it. Her mother tried to stop him too. but he threatened to kill her and Belle's little sister. Gaston got them out of there. Thank God it is a safe place far away from this kingdom. Since Gaston is a war hero. He has friends all over the kingdoms and some owe him favors. but they will not fight wars for him. Belle does owe him for that, but she will not marry him. But she knows he will use them against her to marry him, but she will fight for them. She is not afraid of him, not like his father. He is a crazy mad man who has a big army behind him.

Gaston - Belle, you need to run now.

Belle - what is going on Gaston.

Gaston - my father and brother are on the way right now.

Le Fou - Gaston, hurry up.

Gaston - they have a little army. And they said that they are coming today.

Le Fou - his father said to the king that he is marrying some lady in another kingdom with the same name as you but that is a lie. He wants you.

Gaston - we need to go now to the forest.

Gaston, Le Fou and Belle run to the forest. And stops to catch their breath. At the start of the forest.

Gaston sees some of his father's men. He tells her to run. Do not stop. Gaston and Le Fou go after the men to stop them. She hears the fighting and screams. Belle says sorry to them crying and starts to run. Running for days, Belle stops to catch her breath, Running night and day nonstop. She grabbed her water sack to drink. That's when she hears wolf howls. The sound of howling, her heart started to race. slowly put the water back into her bag then walk slowly away from the howling. She wonders how far the next kingdom is. She feared all the monsters in the forest. Like goblins, orcs, and nagas. The one she feared the most is the headless horseman who will hunt you down until the end. She started to panic.

Belle - "maybe it's not a wolf pack, are they hunting dogs". I have to reach the next kingdom before nightfall. Or I'll be dead or worst marry an old ugly man. God my life. why me why.

Belle walks all morning, takes 2 breaks but pushes on. Then by sunset she sees a wall.

Belle - "Great'' a big wall just by luck". Now I have to find the main gate. Mm or maybe climb a tree. Some of the trees are over the wall. Look from side to side. Tree it is but first which one. The branch needs to be strong for my big butt. I'll look first.

After a little while Belle found a good tree and branch then climbed on the wall. She sees a dead garden. Belle is confused then looks up and sees a castle that is falling apart. She is even more confused.

Belle - how? Why? There is a castle that is falling apart. There shouldn't be a castle here.

Then she grabbed her map and was still confused.

Belle - what why. there is no castle anywhere on the map there is nothing. (a low voice) why? mmm.

going over the map twice but nothing. Then Belle looked down.

Belle - oh no there no trees, great. Wait, I can use the rope. I can tie it to the branch.

Belle uses the rope halfway down the branch breaks and Belle falls in a pile of leaves. Out of breath she gets up but in pain but pushes it to the side. Then looks around to see a path. Belle walks until dawn. all she sees is a dead garden, dead tree and dead flowers. Halfway through she sees an outdoor fountain. It looks beautiful. she just stared at it for a while just mesmerized at it. There is an angel statue in the middle. Looking over she saw a new path. walking down the new path to the castle. it got bigger and bigger.
