Well I got another inspiration blerb. Remember to review. please.
They sat at his feet, silently hanging on his every word. Their faces completely drained of color when he spoke of the beast's order. "This is my fault. I'm so sorry Father! I will go to the beast!" Andre rose shakily to his feet, " No daughter, I have lived a full life, and you know how to care for your selves. I will go to the beast. As I told the beast, I am not the kind of man who would sacrifice his own daughter merely to save his own miserable life."

Serena and Rei stood outside the cottage. "I'll never see you again! Oh what will I do! I need you here Serena! I can't lose you to!" "Oh Rei, surely the beast isn't so heartless that he won't grant me a visit from time to time. You will see me again, it might be a wile, but you will see me again!" Serena assured her sister. "Serena the beast is going to kill you! Don't you realize that?" Rei hissed. "He gave Father his word that he would not." "What good is the word of a beast? He takes apart a family for his own selfish reasons! I hate him!" Serena granted her sister a small smile, " I have no love for him either. Rei, you might want to get some sedatives for father. I had been using them on you when father was gone so we only have a few left." Tears blurred Serena's vision. "I'm going to miss you Serena! I love you!" "I love you to sister, and I will miss you as well." Serena mounted the small horse and looked back to her sister and the home she was sure she would never see again. "Give Father my love, and tell him I'm sorry for going behind his back like this. Farewell!
The forest was thick. Every thing was white. It all looked the same! Serena could only assume that the horse knew the way, or maybe the beast was watching her somehow. Perhaps the path to his castle was enchanted and only those he wanted to find it ever found it. Then what of the beast himself? What exactly was he? Maybe he was a great sorcerer who had decided to appear as something else, But why a hideous beast? Why not something beautiful but still intimidating, like a lion, or a wolf? Or maybe he wasn't a great sorcerer at all! What if he was a sorcerers apprentice and tried to do some magic and turned himself into the horrible creature who attacked her father, and his master left him that way to teach him a lesion! Hmm.either one makes sense.
Serena had been so deep in her thoughts that she hadn't even realized that she had arrived in front of a set of huge iron gates. She dismounted and led her horse to the gates which swung open silently and closed just as silently when went through them. There was no sound but the steady crunch of the horse's hooves on the snow. She had decided to name the horse She had named the horse Luna, as she had a crescent mark on her forehead, she figured that the horse was going to be her only sense of warmth in this cold, dead place. The horse stopped in front of a stable whose door was open and waiting. Serena led the horse into a stall and un tacked her. rubbing her down with towel, and throwing a blanket over her that she was positive hadn't been there a second ago. She gave the horse some hay to munch on and stood petting her. "Well Luna, I guess I can't put it off forever. I have to face him sometime."
