Once upon a time, long, long ago well, more like 20 years ago, Belle married the Beast, also known as Prince Adam, in front of 6,000 of their closest personal friends. Instead of a honeymoon, Beast united all the kingdoms and got himself elected king of the United States of Auradon. He rounded up all the villains and sidekicks and he booted them off to the isle of the lost with a magical barrier to keep them there. This is where I grew up, no magic, no wi-fi, no way out. At least that was how it seemed. But then something wonderful happened. Something that I never could have imagined would change my world forever.
Young Prince Ben, soon to be King Ben, looked out at the Isle of the Lost for what seemed like hours. He had had the dream again last night. The girl, running wild. Her blu hair flowing behind her like a waterfall, emerald eyes sparkling as she sings along with four other teens.
"Sleeve. Head. Ah-ha!" Ben was brought back to reality by Lumiere. How he wished to be anywhere else than getting another fitting for his coronation. He looks to the door to see his parents walk in.
"How is it possible that you´re going to be crowned king next month? You´re just a baby." Said Beast. Both Ben's parents looked at their son with pride in their eyes.
"He is going to be 16 Adam. He can't be our little boy forever." Belle stated as her son smiled at her.
Beast said jokingly "16? That´s far too young to be crowned king. I didn´t make a good decision until I was a least 42." Offended, Belle said "Uh, you decided to marry me at 28."
"Ah, it was either you or a teapot… I'm kidding" Beast quickly tried to calm his wife. Never make such a smart woman angry. It never works out well.
Ben decided it was time to tell his parents what had been on his mind for the longest time. "I´ve chosen my first official proclamation. I´ve decided that the children on the isle of the lost be given a chance to live here in Auradon. Every time I look out to the island, I feel like they´ve been abandoned."
"NEVER! Do you not remember what those people did to our citizens? It's not safe!" Exclaimed Beast.
"Dad these are the kids we are talking about. They have never done anything to have all this anger directed at them." Ben tried to reason with his father. Easier said than done. "We start out with a few at first, only the ones who need our help the most. I've already chosen them."
Beast did not look convinced. "Oh have you?" Belle decided to be the voice of reason. "I gave you a chance after all you had done. Why not give these kids a first chance?" Ben looked gratefully at his mother.
"I picked out five that I would like to bring over."
"Who are their parents?" Belle wanted to get all the facts so that she could help her son as best as she can.
Ben decided to say them slowly, as to let the information sink in. "Cruella De Vil...Jafar...Evil Queen...Maleficent…and the Enchantress."
Beast looked like he was about to explode. "The Enchantress! The woman that turned me into a beast are you insane!"
"DAD! Her daughter hasn't done anything. All the kids are innocent."
Belle decided to step in "If she hadn't turned you into a beast we never would have met and fell in love. I think Ben is right."
"I suppose their children are innocent." Beast finally gives into his wife and son.
Ben grins from ear to ear as his parents leave. Once he is alone he jumps in excitement.
Finally he is getting his dream. Finally he will meet the girl in his dreams.
