"BEAST!!!", I screamed on the crumbling bridge of the castle as I saw the larger man almost slip from his perch on the roof. My voice cut through the air making his ears twitch in my direction.
"Christine?!", he tried to make out my slight figure in the dark and as he did a look of relief and astonishment washed over his face.
I smile at our reunion.
Until I saw Gaston raise the barrel of his pistol at the Beast. Before anyone could whisper a breath I threw my sharpened staff with as much might as I could at Gaston, my only brother and family. But as my spear cut through the air so did the sound of a single gun shot.

The Other Side of the Door
"Mademoiselle, you mustn't be too angry with him, he has had a hard time coping, you know," the teapot spoke to me. "I have every right to be angry with him. He could go meet the devil himself, and I would still have every right to be angry. He has locked me in a castle with talking teapots and wardrobes that sing for fun. I have every right," I replied, collapsing on the bed. "I do not mean to contradict you, mademoiselle, but you have had simply your freedom and your father taken away. He has had his whole body taken away and his whole life practically ripped out of his hands. Sure, he may have temper issues and he may be slightly vain, but he is trying. Trying is all anyone asks of each other. Just, try to understand." And with that note, the teapot hopped out of the room. * Beauty and the Beast Story *Complete
