A mistreated Circus performer named (Y/N) runs away and stumbles upon an enchanted castle with talking teapots, candles, clocks and a beast. What happens when her cruel master finds her again? Does she stay with her new friends or does she go back t...
"It's Mrs Potts, dear," an old female voice replied.
"Come in."
A teapot and a teacup came in on a table with wheels.
"You're a teapot," I said.
"I am and you must be (Y/N)," Mrs Potts said.
"I am."
"You look very underweight."
"I am. I wasn't fed properly."
"Oh, you poor dear. Some lovely breakfast will fill you right up."
"This is going to sound silly but, what is breakfast?"
"It's something you eat in the morning," the little teacup said with a young boys voice.
"I've never had a breakfast before," I told them.
"Well, I think it's high time you had one," Mrs Potts said, "but first, how about a nice cup of tea to start the day?"
Mrs Potts poured some steamy, brown water into the teacup, added a white block which quickly disappeared and the teacup jumped over to me. I took a sip only to be greeted by a burning feeling. Mrs Potts apologised saying she should've warned me. I told her it was alright. After that, they gave a much-needed bath and they cut my hair to the length I wanted it. (A/N: or if you want to keep it long, they just gave your hair a trim) I got dried, dressed in my non-performing clothes and found the beast with Cogsworth and Lumiere looking at, I'm assuming, Belle from the balcony. She was apparently here before me. Belle was walking with her horse and something else was playing in the snow.
"I've never felt this way about anyone," the beast spoke up, "I want to do something for her. But what?"
"Well, there's the usual things- flowers, chocolates, promises you don't intend to keep," Cogsworth said.
"Ahh, no, no. It has to be something very special," Lumiere told him, "something that sparks her interest... wait a minute!"
"Sorry but, I don't understand what's going on," I said.
"Never you mind that," Cogsworth said.
Lumiere took the beats away while I stayed with Cogsworth. Surprisingly, I felt comfortable with the clock. Ha had a sort of presence that made me feel safe, warm and welcomed.
"Now, my dear, may I ask what you're wearing?" Cogsworth asked.
"The only other clothes I have," I replied.
"Your master didn't treat you well at all! Come with me," Cogsworth hopped down from the bannister and led me to my room.
The one who gave me a bath earlier was called and started to measuring me in front of the mirror as Cogsworth gave suggestions for new clothes. It was all kinda rushed so I wasn't sure what was going on. Cogsworth left while I stayed and got measured. Soon, (F/C) materials were wrapping around me making a dress. The dress was finished rather quickly. It was (F/C) with (F/C) netting with some sort of silver stars on it, the top was also almost covered in silver stars and it was all held up with thin straps. The dress itself was beautiful but the one wearing it wasn't. You could see some of my scars, new and old. I went out to the courtyard to see everyone covered in water.

"What happened?" I asked.
"Just a slight mishap," Cogsworth said before going wide-eyed, "oh! My dear, you look stunning!"
"Don't lie to me Cogsworth," I said, "I'm covered in ugly scars."
Cogsworth asked to see them so I kneeled down so he could see. H saw the small, faint ones on my chest but gasped when he saw the bigger ones on my back including the more recent ones.
"Your... master did this?" I nodded, "well, it's a good thing you got out when you did."
After that, I had breakfast, which I ate all of, and decided to get in my performance outfit because I wasn't really comfortable in my new dress. I went into the room I met Cogsworth and Lumiere just the other night. It was now clean and shiny and beautiful. I went over to the piano and started playing a random keys since I had no idea how to actually play when the piano started playing itself. I asked it to play a random melody as I danced to it.
(A/N: you're not singing this BTW)
I heard some clapping at the doorway coming from Cogsworth.
"That was amazing," Cogsworth said.
"Something I learned to do in the circus," I told him.
"What else did you learn there?"
"Umm... trapeze, magic, illusion, dance, sing and... I learned how to steal..."
"You're a thief?!"
"For my masters' enjoyment. I hate doing it."
"Well, we will never make you do anything you don't want to or treat you the way your master did."
I thanked him for being so kind. I was then given a tour around the castle and met a few more of the ornaments. I was also told about a curse that was placed on everyone turning them into ornaments and made the beast onto, well, the beast. I asked him how to get rid of it and Cogsworth told me that if the beast learned to love another before the last petal falls on a rose, the spell would be broken and if he didn't, he would remain a beast forever. Never heard of the word before, I asked what love was. Cogsworth said he would explain some other time. I have so much to learn.
