Chapter 9: The Rose
The gang had been messing around and talking for the whole two hour ride to this 'Beast's Castle'. Syrus was a little nervous to say the least that they were going to a castle that supposedly had a beast inside.
"I mean really!" he continued with his rant to the others. "Why would a beast have a castle anyways?! It doesn't need a castle! (gasp) What if the beast ate the person who really owned the castle! What if he'll eat us next! I DON'T WANT TO BE BEAST FOOD!!"
SMACK!!
"SHUT UP SQUIRT!!" Chazz shouted after he hit Syrus in the head. Syrus had been ranting none stop for a while now and Chazz's patient's was LONG gone. But his and Atticus' game of pool lasted a really long time and he never really got the chance to hit poor Sy on the head till now. "I have a keyblade and everyone else has weapons! We can handle almost anything that comes our way! A little beast won't be able to take down THE Chazz anytime soon!"
"Chazz don't hit Syrus" Alexis said in a monotone while not looking up from her book that she had really gotten into in the past two hours. "And someone go see how far away we are!"
"I'll go!" Jesse said getting up and heading to the piloting room. He looked out the big window that was the front wall and his eyes widened. "Hey guys!" he called down to the others. They came up a few moments later and gawked at the sight in front of them. "I think we're here!" in front of them was a giant castle that was on top of a chunk of earth. Jesse got into the pilots seat and drove onto the world. They landed in a courtyard that had flower pots everywhere and a pair of big doors at the end. They stepped out of the ship and headed for the door. Chazz and Hassleberry went up and pushed the door open. Turns out it was easier to open then they thought and they ended up falling on the floor and having the door open with a big BANG!!
"RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" well if you can't read what I just typed for some weird reason, there was a load roar that echoed threw out the house. "WHO'S IN MY HOME!?!?" Syrus eeped, Chazz gulped, Jesse and Alexis looked curious, Atticus was unfazed and Hassleberry was ready for a fight.
Now that they got a good look at the room, it was a long hallway that had a few doors on the sides and was purple but the lights were dim and gave it a haunting feeling. At the end of the hallway were to long staircases that went up to the left and right. And in the center of where the stairs split is a large set of doors.
"So," Syrus squeaked out. "Anyone else up for leaving?"
"I'm with half pint!" Chazz said slowly edging for the door along with Syrus. But Jesse grabbed Sy by the collar of his shirt and Alexis grabbed Chazz in the same way. "Lex! What are you doing!? There is a beast here that could eat us in one gulp! Why do you want to stay here?!"
"Cause Jaden might be here and you havta lock up this world to keep it safe!" Alexis said looking around. Just then the doors on the other side of the room by the stairs banged open. A being of about 7 feet stormed out of the doorway. On his legs were black pants that must have only been used for special occasions. He had a blue coat on with little ruffles at the end by his wrists. Under that was a light brown nice shirt and at the top a white undershirt that was totally visible (not sure if it is an undershirt but you people can deal cause I really don't know what it is!). He had freaking huge shoulders and had no shoes on. And like I said, he was a being and not human. He had brown fur that covered his body and his feet had claws on them along with his hands. "O my god!"
"HE'S SO FLUFFY!!" Atticus cried. He started to run to the creature but Hassleberry grabbed his collar.
"Hold it there solider!" he said. "If you go and hug that thing you might get clawed!" the creature growled as he stepped down a few steps. He looked really pissed. They heard chuckling from behind the creature. He turned around and there was a women standing there. She had an elegant yellow dress on that expanded a good foot out at the hips and went all the way to the floor. she also had elbow length gloves that were yellow. Her hair and eyes were a chocolate brown and her hair was up in a pony tail, but a lot of it was loose and down on her shoulders. She stood behind the creature and hugged his arm while she smiled at them.
"Looks like we have guests!" the women said smiling. Alexis let go of Chazz and the women let go of the creature. They both walked till they were in the middle of the room and shook hands. "Welcome! My name is Belle!"
"Hi!" Alexis said smiling back. "I'm Alexis! And these are my friends Chazz, Jesse, Hassleberry and Syrus! The last one is my brother Atticus! Who's your friend?"
"He won't tell me his real name, so I just call him Beast! He's actually very gently despite his size!"
"Belle!" the Beast called out. She turned around and gave him a questioning look. "What do you think you're doing?! They could be with that Organization XIII or something here to kidnap you! Let me take care of them!"
"O Beast!" Belle said with a wave of her hand. "They're long gone and you know it! And you were always nice to our other guests that like to show up and make a lot of noises!"
"But they were our friends! We don't know these people!"
"You don't! But I do! This is Alexis, Chazz, Atticus, Hassleberry, Syrus and Jesse!" Beast stared blankly at her before smacking his forehead. "Just be polite Beast!"
"I don't mean to be rude little lady," Hassleberrys spoke up. "But why is that there man, uh, not a man?"
"It's a curse" Belle answered. "He was mean to a lady asking for shelter and turns out she was a witch. So, if he can love and be loved in return he'll be turned back to normal. But there's a catch. The witch offered a rose as payment if she could stay, but, like I said, he wouldn't let her. So once to rose looses all it's pedals, the spell will be permanent."
"You mean this rose?" came a voice from behind. They all spun around to see a hooded figure in a black cloak that was standing on top of the door frame to the room that Beast and Belle just came from and he was holding the rose in his hands. The rose was in a glass casing and was glowing a bright pink color. "This rose that you treasure almost as much as life itself? I wonder what would happen if I dropped it…" as he said that his grip on the glass started to loosen and the case slowly fell out of his grip. He then let go of it completely.
"NOT ON MY WATCH!!" Alexis shouted as her hand glowed pink. She thrusted her right arm in the direction of the rose and her whip came out and wrapped around the glass case. She brought her arm back to her side and the whip and case came with it. she caught the rose and handed it to Belle. "Keep it safe!" she said with a smile. And while that was going on, Chazz summoned his Keyblade, Hassleberry his guns, Atticus his guitar, Syrus his staff, and Jesse his bow.
"Lex!" Atticus called. "You and me better protect Belle! I'm better at protection and you can get my back! Hassleberry, Chazz, Sy and Jesse go help the Beast!"
"RIGHT!!" everyone shouted. Atticus ran over to join Alexis in protecting Belle and the others ran and joined the Beast. Just then, the little black twitchy things that appeared at Duel Academy popped out of the floor. "HEARTLESS!!"
"LET'S DO THIS!" Beast shouted as he jumped into the air about to male the intruder. The intruder jumped out of the way just in time for Beast to miss him and hit the door frame and smash it to pieces. He landed right in the middle of the boys and Belle, Alexis and Atticus. He then started to run towards Belle. "BELLE!"
"O no you don't!" Jesse said as he loaded his bow with 5 arrows and fired. Only one of the arrows hit and it was just a little graze on the arm. But it was enough to make him falter for a second which let Chazz run up and hit him on the back. He cried out in pain as he turned around and hit Chazz in the face with his fist. "CHAZZ!!" Jesse fired a few more arrows. But the hooded figrure opened up a portal and staggered in, but not before have an arrow jabbed into his leg first.
Alexis and Atticus were having a little less luck however. It was easy, but not that easy. Alexis cracked her whip on the head of a heartless and it disappeared. Atticus strummed his guitar and some water started to form in the shape of the heartless. He strummed again and sent the water heartless to kill the regular heartless. With one last crack of the whip the heartless were gone. Beast and the others ran to them.
"Belle! Are you alright?!" the Beast asked frantic. Belle chuckled.
"Just like old times, huh?" Belle asked Beast. He cocked his head to the side in thought for a moment and then a grin appeared on his face. "I told you they were friends!"
"I should trust you more, Belle."
"Wonderful! A lovey dovey moment!" Hassleberry and Chazz said together.
"I think it's sweet!" Alexis said smiling.
"Whatever! Can we just find the Keyhole so that we can go and find that Slacker?!" Chazz asked totally not completely irritated. Just then the glass case that held the rose started to glow a bright yellow. It rose from Belle's grip up into the air. The room glowed as a giant imprint of a keyhole appeared under Chazz as his Keyblade started to glow. He aimed it at the rose and a loud clicking noise could be heard. The rose then fell back down slowly into Belle's arms. "What the hell was that!?"
"That was you locking the world silly!" Belle said grinning at Chazz. "It means that this world is safe from the heartless for a while! Thank you for your help! But we never did get the reason why you guys are here." The smile was replaced by a look of confusion.
"O!" Syrus spoke up. "We're looking for a friend of ours! He disappeared and now we're looking for him!"
"I know a trick that could help you lot!" the Beast said. The others got a look of pure surprise and then anxiousness as they leaned in, eager to hear what he had to say. "Just believe that you will find him and follow your heart! It will take you anywhere!"
"Thanks Beast!" Jesse said. "Come on yall! Let's go find our friend!" the others followed after him while waving to Belle and Beast. Once the door to the room was closed Belle looked at Beast.
"You don't think that they're looking for…" Belle trailed off.
"I get the feeling that they might." The Beast said with a chuckled. "That lot reminds me of him!"
"It'd be nice if he came by a little more often though!" Belle said with a huff. "Now, where were we?" she asked turning to Beast as they started to walk back to the ballroom at the end of the hall.
