Base on Beauty and the Beast. (I Love the new movie. The animated and the live action are amazing!) So I decided to make a story but with Taker/John. The characters are going to be the same but a little different. I'm going to try to mix the animated and the movie version into this story.
M/M don't like! Don't read

Chapter 1
Once a upon a time there was a dark, powerful castle up in the north. There is a prince of darkness living there with his people. He gets everything he wants, respect, money, fame, everything he can ask for. He is living happy; but he is not really kind. He thought he is going to have power; fame but all that changes in one night
"Shawn!..." yells Taker
Hunter and Shawn look at each other. They all ran to the room where they find their Prince of Darkness Taker. Shawn runs as fast as he can try not to get him even angrier.
"Shawn!"
Hunter runs behind him; laughing at Shawn.
"What did you do?" ask Hunter
"Nothing…this time…I swear" says Shawn
They both stop in front of the door. Shawn knocks a few times.
"Come in" says Taker
Shawn and Hunter open the door. Hunter pushes Shawn inside and runs to hide behind a table. Shawn glares at him.
"How dare you…we are supposed to go togeth…"
"Shawn…I've been calling you"
"I'm sorry…master…I was just….um…getting water"
"It took you five minutes to answer my call"
"It won't happen again" smiles Shawn
"Better not"
"It won't"
"Now come on…we got a big day today" Taker smirks
"OH right…a big day…come on…let's get you all fixed up"
Taker walks to the chair and sits down. He is ready for today; it's his birthday and he can't wait to see what everybody brings. There is going to be a ball today; a masquerade theme. He looks around and he sees Hunter walking in with a smile.
"So Master…what are you going to wear?" ask Hunter
"That outfit over there" Taker points to a blue with black outfit along with a mask that is resting on top of it. He loves the color blue and black. Hunter nods and picks up the suit.
"I can't wait for today…there is going to be music…and…people…and…um…" says Shawn
"It's going to be fun"
Shawn takes the suit and hands it to Taker.
"Get dressed master"
Taker is slowly walking around greeting people. The music is playing softly but with great power. The people here are beautiful people; some of them are even music composers. Each of them knows some type of music. He smiles at everyone who has come to join. He is wearing a mask; along with many others.
Shawn is walking around lighting the candles up. He wants it to look spooky. So he guesses that candles are good to use. Hunter times people; he hopes they make it before the door closes. He is looking at his watch. Taker said the door closes at eight. He is ready to close.
Taker looks at Chris Jericho. He is playing the piano with the band. Taker knows Chris can sing but he doesn't really want to hear him.
"Master…how are you today?" ask Stephanie as she is handing out drinks.
"I'm doing great thank you" Smiles Taker
"Good…the food is almost ready" says Stephanie "The cooks are almost done"
"Good…I'm starving"
Shane is running around with the Saint Bernard. He dodges everyone and stops as he almost hits Taker. Stephanie holds her breathe hoping the master doesn't yell at him.
"Careful kid…" smiles Taker
Stephanie lets out a sigh. Stephanie takes care of Shane; he is her brother here. Taker looks at the time. It is eight now. The party is about to begin. Hunter closes the door and locks it and runs to the ball room.
Taker sits on his throne and watches everyone have fun. He can see some gifts piling up on him. He is enjoying it right now. Then the people decide to dance along with the dance. Taker stands up and walks around the dance floor. He dances with one to the other. He is having fun.
Taker then walks in front of everybody and they all start bowing down to him. He lifts his head up high. Taker tells them rise. He keeps walking around while the people dance around him.
Taker laughs along with others until there was a knock. Taker stops as he growls.
"Who would dare interrupt me?" ask Taker
Shawn looked at Hunter. They both don't know what to say. Chris stops the music and looks at the front door. Stephanie tells the cooks to wait for the food. They all stood there quiet.
"I guess…it was nothing…" says Taker "Let's continue"
"Okay…" says Chris as he is about to play music the knock was heard again.
Taker growls as he walks to the door.
"Everyone…stay quiet" says Taker
He opens the door to reveal a weak man standing in front of him. Taker looks down at him with disgust.
"I'm sorry to interrupt…but it's raining out here and I seek shelter"
Taker still doesn't say anything. He looks out the door. It is raining; hard. Taker thinks for a while.
"Do you have something to offer me?" he ask
The man takes out a rose. "All I can give you is this rose"
Taker stares at the rose. He looks back at his people and laughs. He keeps laughing; not believing what is happening. He can't accept the rose.
"You got to be kidding me"
Taker grabs the rose and shows it to the people. They all laugh along with him.
"This is nothing…" he gives the rose back "Go back the way you came from…"
"Please…just until the rain calms down…"
"No…now go on!" says Taker
"Don't be deceived by appearances…for beauty is from within" says the old man
Taker growls as he turns away from him.
He closes the door on the man. He shakes his head in disbelief.
"A rose…won't get you anything" says Taker "Let's continue my party"
The music is about to hit until the door bust open. Taker falls down along with some others. He gasps as he gets up slowly; turning to the door. He blinks a little to see someone standing there.
Shawn and Hunter are surprised.
"Master…you okay" asked Shawn
"I'm fine…" says Taker
Taker stands up with awe. He sees a man; the same size as him; with fire around him. The man is strong and powerful. Taker eyes widen.
"Who are you?"
"I'm Kane…" he says
"What do you think you're doing?" ask Taker
"I wanted shelter but your cold heart said no…" said Kane "I'm going to return a favor for what you did"
Kane raises his arms and fire starts forming around Taker.
"Wait…stop…" says Taker as he falls to his knees. "Stop…I'm sorry…I'm sorry"
Kane doesn't stop. He just keeps going. He can feel the prince heart; it is cold, and no love in his heart.
"I'm sorry…" says Taker
"I see no love in your heart…for your punishment…"
Taker yells out as he feels something change in him.
"Master…" yells Shawn
Hunter feels his clock grow around him. He yells out in pain as he slowly shrinks.
"Hunter!" yells Shawn
He stops but he trips and falls next to candles. He felt his hands go on fire; but he is not feeling any pain. Shawn looks to his master, who is still yelling out in pain. The castle starts getting on fire; slowly changing.
Hunter looks at Chris; who is stuck to the keyboards of the piano. Stephanie hugs Seth and both start yelling in pain. Stephanie drops a teapot while Shane breaks a teacup holder.
Taker looks at his hands and sees claws growing. He starts to roar instead of yelling. He falls down and closes his eyes.
Kane looks around the place. He sees some people who are still there. He tells them to leave; and erases their memory. Now everyone won't remember that there is a prince or a castle anymore. He even cast a spell that erased music. The people don't know music anymore. He sends them off to a little village. Kane places the rose in front of Taker.
Taker gets up on his knees. He sees the rose in front of him. He picks it up.
"Take care of this rose…."
"What did you do to me?" ask Taker
"I've turned into what you truly are…" says Kane "A beast…"
"No…" Taker whispers
"Take care of this rose, don't let it break."
"What…?" ask Taker
"You need to learn how to love; and someone to love you back before the last pedal falls the spell will be broken. If not you will be doomed and be a beast forever"
Kane makes him fall asleep.
A few months past. Everything had changed. The master has remained a beast. Taker gets up with a groan. He runs to the mirror. He stills sees the same beast. He can't believe it. He keeps staring at the mirror. He sighs in despair. He is losing hope; nothing had changed. He had to accept the fact that he is now a beast.
Taker looks at his painting. He can see him a human in the picture but not in the mirror. Taker rips the painting and starts destroying his room.
"NO!" he yells.
He stops as he sees the rose. He kept it in a vase.
"It's hopeless" he whispers "What do I do?"
Taker sits down and looks down. He doesn't know what to do.
"Who could ever learn…to love a beast" whispers Taker
...
Yup…Taker as a beast. Let's see how it goes.
