Hey guys! Thanks sooooo much for the reviews and support. Thanks so much, I was having second thoughts about making this fic, but I'm so glad you guys like it. . XD

The first pairing I tried was GajiLevy, but that reminded me of little red riding hood. Then I tried JellaErza, but Erza would probable killed the beast at an instant. .XP

And then there was GrayJuvia, but that's the little mermaid. . So I went with my favorite pairing NaLu.

So anyway, I hope you guys enjoy my version of Beauty and the Beast, but with a hint of Disney's version, and the dark origin.

Enjoy. .


The Beauty and the Dragon. .

It's a quiet, calm, peaceful morning at a small village, filled with the most kind hearted, loving people you have ever meet. And in that village leaved a simple merchant man named Makarov, with 3 loving daughters, named Angel, Flair and Lucy he loved them all so much. But the youngest among them, is by far the most beautiful of them all and the kindest of heart, with golden hair that flows perfectly in the wind, eyes that would sparkle in the sun light, and a smile that would melt even the coldest of heart.

Yes, her beauty was known throughout the entire village, and her is Lucy. She is love by all who ever meets her. But to her two older sisters, they find her as nothing but an eyesore. Whenever she's around none of the men in the village wouldn't even notice the two them. Even their own father favored Lucy more than them. In which their hearts are filled with nothing but hate and jealousy for their younger sister. So every day they would make poor Lucy work in the fields in the hot sun all day, if not in the fields they make do all house choirs like; cook the meals, wash the dishes, do the laundry, the marketing. Everything! While they just laze about and did nothing, but watch their sister toil under the sun, hoping that the manual labor would make her beauty fade.

But no such luck, her beauty still surpassed the beauty of her sisters, which in rage them even more.

One day their beloved father Makarov said that he will be heading down to the harbor to meet a ship that has crates filled with precious ivory and shine silk.

"My dear sweet daughters, I'll be back in as soon as I can, and when I get back, we'll all be rich beyond compare." Makarov said with a wide grin on his face.

"Tell me my daughters; what would you like as a present when I return?"

"I would love a new fancy dress and jewelry to match father." Said Angel

"She already have too many dresses father. I want new beautiful accessories, for my beautiful hair, with diamond." Said Flair.

"And what about you Lucy? What would you like my dear child?" Said her father a smile on his face.

"Just came back quickly and safely father, that's all I asked." Said Lucy with a sweet smile as she handed to him his coat.

"Oh! Come now my dear. Surly there must be something that you want? Tell me." Said Makaravoz.

"Well. . I would like a rose father. That's all I ask. It's been a while since I've seen one." Said Lucy.

"Oh! Wow! A rose. How cute" Angel said sarcastically.

"Hahaha! How pathetic can you be?" Teased, Flair.

"Alright you two, that's enough! For you my dear Lucy, I'll bring you the most beautiful rose in the world." Said Makarov with a smile.

"Thank you so much father."

"Alright then girls. I'll be on my way now. Please take good care of the place when I'm gone alright. I love you all." Said their father as he rode off on his horse as his daughters waved him good bye.

When Makarov reach the docks, horrible news struck him. The news was that a deadly storm destroyed the ship that was carrying the crates filled with precious ivory and shine silk. The poor merchant then rode back home with a heavy heart that he could not give his daughters their gifts that he promised them. But then when Makarov is on his way home a heavy snowstorm greeted him. The blizzard is so strong that he and his horse couldn't see the path in front of them. But as luck would have brought him, he happens to stumble upon a magnificent castle. As Makarov was about to knock on the castle doors, the two magnificent doors, magically opened by themselves.

Makarov steps inside the castle, and saw himself in a grand and spectacular hall, made of marble, and precious stones with a great chandelier hanging at the middle.

"Hello! Who is master of this place? Please, allow me to stay the night, the snowstorm outside is so strong that I can't even see the road in front of me." Makarov called out. He explored the halls and found no one; he then caught a delicious scent. He followed the scent into a grand dining hall with scrumptious meal prepared for him. So he sat himself down to eat, but then waited for the master of the castle to eat with him. Hours pass, still no one appeared and so his hunger over whelmed him and he began to eat. His wine glass started to fill itself, and then the food magically started to fly into his plate.

"OH MY! This is really in an enchanted castle." Makarov said in astonishment. So he ate his fill and began wondering the castle again and found a king-size bed with bed sheets made of fine silk and pillows stuffed with feathers. Makarov lay down on the soft bed just to rest for just a moment, but when he awoke it was already morning and to his surprise his found himself dressed in fine night gown, and his clothes all a dry and properly folded in his bed. He quickly then got dress and headed to the great hall to search for the master of the castle, but still no such luck. Not one person is around.

"Oh Thank you! Thank you so much for your kind hospitality! Thank you so much." Makarov yelled with glee. As Makarov was about to leave, he caught a sweet scent of roses in air and remembered her daughter Lucy. So he followed the smell into a magnificent garden filled with roses of different color. Makarov, searched and searched for the most perfect rose and finally found a beautiful red rose and plucked it.

At that very moment he hired a monstrous roar that made the very earth tremble before his feet. He can hire his heavy breathing from his back, with great fear. He slowly turned his head and saw a horrific monster standing before him. The monster stood 6 feet tall wearing a dark long coat and tattered clothes, with sharp deadly teethes, horns sticking out of his head, sharp claws for hands, red scales covering his body and a tail with spikes on its back.

"HOW DARE YOU! I showed you my hospitality and this is how you repay me? BY STEALING FROM ME!" Yelled the monstrous figure.

"N-N-No My lord." Makarov replied with fear.

"CALL ME DRAGON!" The dragon beast yelled.

"Please. . Please forgive me dragon."

"SILENCE! For your insult your punishment id death!" Said the dragon, with what the dragon said the poor merchant fell to his knees and begged to the dragon beast.

"Oh! Please no, dragon please I beg of you spare me. I was only picking this rose as a present for my daughter, Lucy."

"You have a daughter?"

"Yes, three lovely daughters. That needs me. Oh please let me go."

"Hmmm. . .Alright then old man. I'll let you leave, but on one condition. You must send one of your daughters to leave here in this castle, or you must come in their place." Demanded the dragon.

"Wait! You can do that!"

"SILENCE! Either one of your daughters comes to here willing to take your place or you'll have to come back. You have 7 days to decide old man; I will send a white stallion to your house to collect. And if you don't send anyone out. I'LL BE THE ONE TO GO THERE MYSELF AND CHOOSE ONE OF YOU MYSELF!" Said the dragon beast as he placed his hand around the merchant's neck and filled him of the ground.

"No. . You-You can't do that. Please. ."

"Oh! Yes I can. Remember old man. You only have 7 days to decide. Now go!" Said the dragon as he tosses him aside.

"NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOO"
