A/N: this is written for BondofFlame08's 50 theme challenge: Forgotten Couples. It involves crack pairings set within the KH universe so it's quite challenging as it has to be a couple no one has written about before.

The couple I've chosen anyways, is Belle from the Beauty and Beast and Prince Philip from Sleeping Beauty. for those of you who don't know, Belle appeared in KH1, KH: CoM and KH 2. Philip only appeared in KH: BBS but he still stole my heart in both game and movie, none the less. The reason for this couple?-I've always found Aurora to be quite shallow, selfish and Mary-Sueish despite her extremely good looks. Belle on the other hand is witty, intelligent and judges people by appearance. She doesn't fall in love with a random stranger in the woods but gradually falls in love with a beast over time.

What'll happen if Philip and Belle were to actually meet in KH? Here's my take on a possibility.


"What's going on?" Philip whispered quietly.

The world he had come to know, love and hate was crumbling into darkness before his pleading eyes. Debris of rocks and earth defied the laws of gravity and soared into the spiral of doom that gyrated above, fading to nothingness and all Philip could do was question himself at why this was all happening.

At the highest peak, an inscrutable figure raised her arms into the sky, laughing hysterically at the people who ran amuck in this armaggaden. Philip recognised this laughter too well. It was the cackling of Maleficent, the witch he presumed dead yet here she was, the source of the darkness wallowing up any light left in his world.

"Philip!" he heard Aurora call and the prince turned frantically to see her fading into a vortex of black. Monsters that were no taller than a dog danced about the princess; their glowing yellow eyes contrasting with their slim, dark silhouettes. They appeared to be similar to the Unversed yet there was something far more sinister emanating from them.

They dragged Aurora deeper into the vortex.

"No!" he cried, reaching for his sword and striking at the creatures that lingered about him. It was no use as his attacks had no effect on them. Instead, he was pushed over the edge of a precipice and before he knew it, he was swallowed into a sea of darkness.

He gasped for air, feeling a burning sensation inside his chest daring to burst out of his body. Waves of darkness washed over him, encouraging the warmth in his ribcage to give way.

Philip clutched at his torso but it was too late, he had lost Aurora and now, he lost his heart. He watched, dazed, as a luminous ball ripped out of his chest and disintegrated in the darkness. All consciousness evaporated from his mind until he was left in the chasms of nothingness, and possibly... He'd stay like this forever.

He was a Heartless now.
