AND THE
BEAST
- Chapter: 3
BEAUTY!
Catherine: A BEAUTY! I can't believe they call her that!
Dorothy: all she ever does is read! Doesn't that stuck up twit have anything better to do?!
Catherine: I know I mean it's like she thinks she's better than we are!
Cadet Noin: the two sisters always bickered and whispered about their sister and how she never did anything useful. Though this isn't true far from it! In fact for Lucretzia or as everyone called her "Beauty" did far more work than the two of them put together. She spent most of her free time reading could books and gazing at the stars for although she knew she had a pleasant life she was sick of her sisters complaints of her and she knew this sounded silly but she wish she could go up there by the stars. Beauty's father was a wise and rich merchant who was on his way to the capital to see if he could help support the funding of the war for a war between the cruel alliance who had destroyed the late Peacecraft kingdom, and the newly founded OZ. Beauty wished she could help end the war for although she hated the alliance and blamed it to be the cause of her mother's death she didn't want to see any more lives lost.
Trieze: Dorothy, Catherine, and Lucretzia! Come here
Dorothy: yes?
Trieze: good your all here. As you know I am about to leave for the capital and because I cannot take you with me I will bring something back for you what would each of you want?
Dorothy: Jewels!
Catherine: Silk!
Noin: hah like I need more jewels and silk I have more than I know what to do with! But I know he can't take me with him this time sooo…
Cadet Noin: glancing over out the window that looked over the garden she noticed there were no roses.
Noin: a rose
Trieze: a rose? Yes a rose is an excellent choice one that I believe out shines the beauty of any jewel or silk and yet lasts for such a rare moment before withering.
Cadet Noin: that night the merchant left his three daughters, waved goodbye and left down the road. The merchant arrived safely to the capital did his business and a few days later left but a strange event happened. The Merchant had never been lost before and if the merchant wasn't a down to earth sort of man he would of swore that the path had been bewitched for it seemed to change and twist. By the time the merchant was convinced he was lost a storm blew up and the cold white crystals know as snow began to fall the curtain of white blinded his eyes and then his mind went blank.
When he woke up there was no sign of snow, but an orchard of orange trees in a row on either side of him and a sun was shining over head. Now if the merchant was bewildered when he looked at the orchard and how impossible the weather could change so quickly imagine his shock when he looked over to find it still was snowing except over where he was laying looked like dead summer! It was like a strange dream a picture cut in half one warm the other cold.
Trieze: what a strange and wonderous place I have entered well although this is very strange I should find out where I am.
Cadet Noin: the merchant decided to look around the area as he walked through the orchard every type of fruit seemed to grow there. When emerged from the orchard he found himself in a beautiful yet haunting garden filled with mysterious sculptures and looming hedges. As much as the merchant would have liked to stay and admire the vast garden he figured he should quicken he pace before the sunset. Walking a little farther as the amazement went away he realized that he was exhausted so he found a stable and fed his horse leaving his worn out horse to rest he continued on to discover a magnificent castle.
Trieze: I hope the owner of this castle does not mind if I allow my self in but perhaps I can ask for shelter.
Cadet Noin: looking into the next room for any sign of life only to find none. He did notice however a large dinner set for one person.
Trieze: it's seems as if I were expected but I shall wait a while for a servant to appear and ask who lives here.
Cadet Noin: so the merchant waited and waited and waited and…
Duo: we get the point
Cadet Noin: hush
Cadet Noin: but no servant appeared, finally from starvation and desperation for his stomach was now telling him he had not eaten in quite a while he started to eat the meal…when he could eat no more he left the room and walked through several rooms until he came to one that had a comfortable looking bed in it. As he was very tired, the merchant shut the door and went to sleep.
Treize: Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Cadet Noin: when he awoke he amazed to find a new suit of clothes lying at the foot of his bed in place for his damp and spoiled ones from the storm.
Trieze: this must the palace of a good fairy that has been so kind to me.
Cadet Noin: Looking through the window in his room he saw the garden he had passed early at night and saw a beautiful arrangement of roses, beautiful deep red ones as crimson as a drop of blood from a ladies finger, pure white ones as pale and as glowing as a full moon in the dark sky, delicate pink ones, and soft yellow ones that would bring a smile even to the gloomiest face, some even looked like they could pass as gold.
Trieze: Beauty would love this view I'm sure there are enough flowers for even her love of them.
Cadet Noin: the merchant changed his clothes and returned to the great hall, the entrance of the castle. There he found hot chocolate he drank the chocolate and said
Trieze: thank you whoever you are I am grateful to you
Cadet Noin: and made ready to leave, but on his way out he remembered beauty's request and when got to the part where the rose grew he plucked a beautiful red one but as he did heard a frighting voice say,
Voice: drop the rose you ungrateful wretch you steal my roses and clothes you must work for the alliance. You shall die for it.
Cadet Noin: merchant slowly began to turn and explain but by then the cold metal was already pressed against his throat.
Oh scary! So what do you think? Please review so I know your enjoying it I know I need to work on my other one but I haven't been inspired for the next chapter so that's why I'm working on this one well I'm getting hungry so I'm gonna go eat something see ya later Ja ne!
