Once upon a time, somewhere deep in the castle, there lived a very spoiled beast...
Hi, folks! Joshua Sumter here.
Will you take a look at that? Pretty weird, huh?
Well, you're not gonna believe this, but that beast you're looking at was once a human being, and not just any human being, that girl was a princess. A spoiled one, to be precise! Oh, yeah!
This is her story. Well, it's actually, also the boy's story. Let's just say it's a love story between those two. It's a tale of a boy who meets a girl, uh, princess, er, beast!
You know what, it's the story of Beauty and the Beast. Some of you already know how the story goes-but this time, it's genderbended.
Anyway, that princess/beast fell in love with this boy and he left the castle for no reason! Oh, is that hard to believe?
Well, look, I'll tell you what, you go back aways, you know, before she was a beast, and this would all make sense.
Right, okay...
Once upon a time, in a far-off land, there was a magnificent castle that thrived in the middle of a beautiful forest. There, in the castle, lived a young princess. Although she had everything her heart desired...
Okay, let's face it - The princess was spoiled, self-centered, and selfish. The girl was a real jerk. I'm talking MAJOR diva, COMPLETELY-um, well, sorry. Okay, back to the story...
One cold, winter night, an old man came to the castle doors. He offered the young princess a rose in exchange for shelter.
At first, she looked at the old man's appearance and finally...she refused.
But it turns out, the old man was really the enchanter in disguise! He now cast a powerful spell on the castle and everyone who lived there - even turned the princess into a beast!
The rose the enchanter had left for the princess was really an enchanted one.
If she could to learn to love another and earn that love in return before the last petal fall, the spell will be broken. If not...well, she'll be remain a beast forever.
Years passed, and she fell into despair and lost hope. After all, who could ever learn to love a beast who was actually a princess who thinks of nothing but herself?
Yep, that's how that spoiled princess turned into a beast, alright. But you're still wondering about why she was sad in the opening?
Well, let me take you to the young boy who had changed her life...and her spoiled and selfish ways.
His name...was Beau.
Oh, come on, Joshua Sumter. I'm the narrator, and you're the guy who wrote this whole genderbended fanfiction. You know what, whatever, okay? But I tell the story and you acted out. Got it?
Okay, okay, yeah, I get it! Just get on with it, already.
Okay, let's see...
Tell you what, Narrator, I'll be in charge of telling this story. After all, I wrote it! Okay?
Fine! But don't get any funny ideas.
Oh, I'm just getting started. All right, ladies and gents, it's MY turn to tell this tale! *Ahem!*
This is the story of a young, fearless boy who wanted something more, and a beast, living under a powerful spell of epic proportions. They were perfect for each other, but they don't know it yet. That's what I'm about to tell you of how that happened as we are about to enter the story...
