What if I told you all that the same enchantress who changed the Beast was not alone? What if I told you all that she had a brother. A brother who ruled over the magical realm and was not too keen on what Prince Adam had done to his sister when he was still an arrogant brute.

"It seems to me like he still needs to be taught a lesson," He said, looking in a large crystal ball in his throne room. The room was dimly lit, but that did not bother the large enchanter at all.

"Dear brother. I am sure Prince Adam learned his lesson. He is no longer the monster we thought he was." The enchantress replied.

"Are you sure sister? It appears to me that he still needs to learn about love and how to love." The enchanter replied.

"Malchior. Please listen. He has earned his freedom because he found someone to love him, even in his beastly state."

"I see. Well then…you will not mind if I happen to drop in on his castle to see for myself."

"Can you not watch him through the crystal realm ball?"

"I prefer not to. I wish to see him in person." Malchior replied. The enchantress could only nod and heed to her brother's wish. He was the most powerful of their realm and he could not be stopped even if she wanted to stop him!

In reality, Malchior wanted to know if Prince Adam truly changed. Changing one's heart and personality is not an easy task. Therefore, he needed more proof. He snapped his fingers and in one moment, he changed himself into an elderly gentleman who was dirty and definitely not pleasing to the eye.

"We will see Prince Adam…we will see…." He smirked. And with those words, he disappeared to Earth.

Meanwhile at the castle….

"Please leave me alone!" Adam snapped at Lumiere.

"Master listen. I know that you don't feel well. Please eat this pea soup!"

"I told you I hate pea soup Lumiere!" He growled.

"Adam please…he's only trying to help," Belle said, now walking in the room wrapped in a thick blanket. She too was sick.

"Belle, go to bed my dear! You're sick!" Adam said, now walking over and gently feeling her forehead.

"But master!"

"I refuse to eat any of that!" Adam snapped, now turning and looking at Lumiere once more.

"Well if you won't eat any of that, at least have some of this gingerroot tea and fish oil syrup! It's the only way to clear that fever and clear those aching muscles!" Cogworth said, now walking in with the fish oil.

At that very moment, Malchior had just come to the large castle door with his basket filled with various roots and plants. He was just about to knock when Lumiere came running out the front door!

"Oh my! Pardon me!" Lumiere said quickly.

"Is everything alright Sir? I was only going to ask if you wanted to by some of my mint plants or roots for ginger tea?" Malchior replied, still in disguise.

"No sir! I mean, no thank you! The master is very ill at this time but refuses to take any of those items!"

"I see…" Malchior replied.

"Please excuse me!" Lumiere replied, now quickly running out to grab more firewood for the fire. Malchior then became invisible and entered the castle.

Chip was just walking in with some hot milk for Prince Adam, but once again he was being stubborn!

"Hot milk for you master!" Chip grinned.

"No thank you." Adam huffed, now sitting in a chair with Belle next to him.

"But master you have to have something!" Chip said, now becoming concerned.

"Please drink it Adam…you won't recover if you don't!" Belle said in concern.

"I don't want it and I'm not sick!" Adam growled, now becoming angrier. Malchior watched them even closer and saw Chip becoming a bit frightened.

"Master please…mom is out of town for a bit and she told me it was my job to take care of you!" Chip replied.

"I am here! I have more tea! This tea is different! It is made with mint not ginger!" Lumiere said, now walking in and very tired from making different things for his master.

"I said…no!" Adam said, now looking more agitated.

"B-But…" Chip started.

"ENOUGH!" Adam roared, now standing up and making Chip fall down on his rump in fear and spill milk all over the floor!

"Adam! You scared him!" Belle said in alarm, now quickly wiping her own feverish forehead and getting up to help Chip.

"Oh Chip..I…I…" Adam started and kneeled down to try and help him up.

Suddenly, the entire room went dark! Deep and terrible laughter filled the room and soon a large being suddenly appeared in the middle of the room. He was approximately 9 feet tall and he had long pointed ears, pale skin, green eyes, noticeable fangs, long white hair, and he was wrapped in a large green robe-like garment.

"WHAT ON EARTH?!" Belle gasped.

"Who are you?! Get out of my castle!" Adam thundered.

"Ah ah ah Adam…you cannot remove Malchior, the enchanter that quickly." Malchior grinned smugly. "I now see you still have a lot to learn about loving others."

"What are you talking about?! I broke the enchantress's spell!" Belle said confidently.

"I know you did my dear. But look at the way he treated his servants. He scared that young child half to death and didn't even try to listen when they worked so hard to make him those things to make him well." Malchior thundered. Everyone flinched except for Prince Adam.

"You don't frighten me. I made a mistake and I understand that. But…"

"But nothing." Malchior said, now turning and seeing Chip still on the floor in horror and covered in milk. "You poor creature. You deserve someone that will treat you better than he has," He said, now kneeling down and putting a hand on Chip's head.

"Stay away from him!" Adam warned. Malchior ignored him.

"My dear young man…let's may a deal." Malchior grinned deviously.

"W-What kind of deal?" Chip said, still trembling being in the shadow of a large being.

"Now now, do not fear my young man. I will make you a deal. If you agree to be my servant, I will make your master and his wife much better. Their sickness will be gone." Malchior promised.

"S-servant! B-But I can't leave my mom and my family!"

"Chip NO!" Adam bellowed, now rushing forward, but Malchior put up a clear barrier that prevented him from getting through!

"Chip don't listen to him! You can't leave us!" Belle yelled, now running over, but unable to get through!

"Don't believe him little one!" Lumiere said, now starting to cough.

"See young one. Your other friends are becoming ill as well. You wouldn't want your mother to be ill as well would you?"

"No," Chip said, sadly. "But I can't just leave! I don't know you!"

"It is up to you young one. But remember…I won't wait forever. It is the health of your master and your friends or to be my servant." Malchior replied, now gently taking Chip's chin and making him look at him. Chip stared into his haunting green eyes and tears welled up in his own eyes. For a young 9 year old boy, he felt like he didn't have much choice. Taking a deep breath, he looked away from the titan but then looked back at him.

"I-I will b-be your servant i-if I can come and visit them from time to time."

"Hmmmm?"

"I won't go unless I can come back to visit!" Chip said sadly. Malchior looked at him with a raised eyebrow in amusement. After a few seconds, he chuckled and gently ran his hand through his hair.

"I accept your terms young one."

"CHIP SAY NO!" Cogsworth bellowed, now afraid for Chip's safety.

"He said yes?! Chip stop!" Adam said in horror, now banging harder on the forcefield.

"Chip!" Belle screamed, now tears streaming down her face. But no one had time to say anything else…before they knew it the Enchantor gently picked Chip up and looked at them. His eyes glowed white and they slowly began to disappear.

"The deal has been made. Chip has agreed to be my servant for your health to be restored." He said, and without another word, they were gone.

Everyone slowly began to feel better but now they had a bigger problem: Chip was in the hands of Malchior the enchanter and they had no way to get him back.
