Chapter One:
Once upon a time, a young prince by the name of Kevin Levin lived in a shining castle. Although he had everything his heart desired, Prince Kevin was spoiled, selfish, and unkind. Then one winter's night, an enchantress named Charmcaster came to the castle disguised as an old beggar woman and offered the arrogant prince a single rose in exchange for shelter from the bitter cold. Repulsed by her haggard appearance, Prince Kevin sneered at the gift and turned the old woman away. She warned him not to be deceived by appearances, for beauty is found within. When the young prince dismissed her again, Charmcaster's ugliness melted away to reveal her true form.
Prince Kevin tried to apologize, but it was too late. For Charmcaster had seen that there was no love in his heart. As punishment, she transformed him into a hideous beast and placed a powerful spell on the castle and all who lived there. Ashamed of his monstrous form, the beast concealed himself inside his castle with a magic mirror as his only window to the outside world. The rose Charmcaster had offered him was truly an enchanted rose which would bloom until his 21st birthday. If he could learn to love another and earn her love in return by the time the last petal fell, the spell would be broken. If not, he would remain a beast forever. As the years passed, he fell into despair and lost all hope. For who could ever learn to love a beast.
Meanwhile in the village of Bellwood, a young girl named Gwendolyn Tennyson stepped out of her cottage and headed into town to return the book she had borrowed from the owner of the bookshop. Everyone in town considered Gwen to be odd. Gwen's father Frank was an inventor, but the villagers considered him to be a crazy man. After walking into the bookshop, the kindly old shopkeeper gave Gwen her favorite book as a gift. After leaving the bookshop, Gwen was walking back to the cottage when she bumped into Michael Morningstar, the town hunter and hero. He was accompanied by his bumbling sidekick Cooper.
" Ah lovely Gwen. I was hoping I'd run into you." Michael said as he playfully grabbed the book out of Gwen's hands. " Michael, can I have my book back please?" Gwen said, annoyed at the fact that Michael was bothering her. " Come now lovely Gwen, why don't get your head out of the clouds and pay attention to more important things, like me for example." Michael said as he flashed a cocky grin. " I'm sorry Michael, but I have to get home to help my father. Goodbye." Cooper began to laugh, " That crazy loon, he needs all the help he can get." Gwen fumed, " Don't talk about the my father like that!" Michael glared at Cooper, " Yeah, don't talk about her father that way!" Gwen spoke up again, " My father's not crazy, he's a genius." An explosion from the basement of the cottage interrupted Gwen. She took off running leaving Michael and Cooper to laugh about their little joke.
And that's chapter one for ya. Leave a review and I will get chapter two going.
