The Beast looked through his mirror as he was brushing his fur and licking his teeth cleaned. He sat on his chair, waiting for Belle to come but an hour or two had past and she still hasn't come.

"Why am I still waiting?" the Beast said to himself as he looked through his window, "Mrs. Potts!"

"Coming, sir! Coming!" Mrs. Potts and Tia came in along with a cart as she heard his master's call. "What a brisk day! Why, you look positively chilled to the bone." she said as she approach him. "Where's Belle?" the Beast asked as he sat down. "How about a nice cup of tea, sir? Just a spot." she said as her master grabbed the teacup.

"Forte, play Belle's song!" the Beast commanded. In the other room, Forte starts playing but it didn't sound like a happy tune. "You're not singing!" he said and Forte sigh and sang which is sounded gloomy, " Deck the halls with boughs of holly, Fa-la-la-la-la, La-la-la-la." "Louder!" the Beast commanded and Forte spoke a little louder. Saber just covered his ears as he was not enjoying the song.

While Forte sings, Mrs. Potts looked at the Beast. "A bit more tea, sir? Good for the heart, you know." "No, thank you." he said politely. "Just a spot." "No more." "Well, there's always room for tea, love." "I said no more." "Oh, dearie me!" "Poultea." said Tia.

The Beast looked at the two. "Mrs Potts, are you and your Poulteageist trying to distract me?" he asked. Tia shook her head no. "Goodness, no, sir." she looked at the window and gasp, "Heavens. Is that a Articuno? Rare this time of year." "Poultea..." Tia floated back away a bit as the Beast burst.

"Enough! Where's Cogsworth? Where's Belle?" "Belle? We... can't find her, sir." "Poutea..." Tia felt a little shook, knowing that this would happen. "What?!" the Beast roared as he shattered the teacup to the ground and got out of his seat. "Leave me!" he yelled.

He entered the parlor and grabbed the mirror from the table. "Show me the girl!" he growled. The mirror glass showed him that Belle was on a sleigh with her friends and Philippe the Mudsdale was driving through the snow. The Beast growled with anger.

"I will bring her back!" he roared. "No!" Forte spoke, "Um, she's abandoned you." The Beast growled and then turned to Forte. "Listen to your old friend, won't you? Have I ever steered you wrong? Led you astray? No. But the girl…"

Forte starts playing a tune as music notes came and cupid-like images that looked mean around the Beast.

Forte: The quickest way to break your heart

Make you depressed and ill

Is to get tangled up inside

The side effects could kill

All passion is a waste of time

A deadly game pour vous

I am your friend, your cher ami

I wouldn't lie to you

If you must love someone, may I suggest

You love yourself! Just think it through

You'll never leave and you will find

You'll get more rest

You'll always feel as good as new

Your freedom is the most

Important thing, my friend

You must be strong, you mustn't bend

Don't talk for hours

Don't send flowers

Don't write poems

Don't sing songs and dance

Beneath the stars

That shine above

Don't fall in love

(Oh don't do it!)

The cupid illusions tormented the Beast. He felt so strange like he's some kind of trance as Forte kept singing.

Forte: As soon as your heart rules your head

Your life is not your own

It's Hell when someone's always there

It's bliss to be alone

And love of any kind is bad

A dog, a child, a cat

They take up so much precious time

Now where's the sense in that?

Love takes the wildest heart and makes it tame

If you're turned on, then just turn off

Emotions are a thing all great men overcame

Please, don't make this grand catastrophe

Don't get attached to anyone or anything

There's nothing worse than things that cling

You'll go to pot

You'll turn to drink

You'll never rest

You'll end up mad and

Looking like some

Poor demented dove

Don't fall in love

The Beast became so furious. He grabbed his cloak and left while Forte and Saber laugh, knowing that the plan has worked.

Acel was down in the hallway, trying to find Belle and Petite until the Beast burst out of the room and ran past him. He heard Forte laughing, and he knew something wasn't right. Saber walked out of the room and Acel knew that the Sableye was involved with it.

Suddenly, he pounced Saber to the ground and growled. "Absol Sol?!" Acel shouted to him as he was asking what he and Forte had done. "Sableye." Saber replied like it was nothing. "Sol!" he commanded but Saber shook his head until he saw Acel's crescent shaped horn glow. "Absol!" he commanded again as he was about to attack.

Saber was in fear, and he doesn't want to be attacked. "Sableye Sableye Sableye Sableye!" Saber confessed as he told Acel the whole thing and the part that Forte tricked Belle and Petite to go to the forest to find a tree and Fife and Karel are making sure that they will never come back.

Acel was shocked. He knew something was up with Forte but never knew he would go that far. "Absol Sol Sol!" he yelled calling Saber a fool and told him that Belle and Petite would get killed. He got off of Saber and quickly dash off. Saber took deep breaths as he watched Acel leave.

At the Dining Hall, Angelique was on the table looking around while Filicia watches her. "No, no, no, no, no, no, no. They cannot mix bells with holly." she said as she grabbed a holy leaf but realize what she did and hold on to it. "Still, I have to admit, not bad for amateurs." she said with a smile. "FurFrou." Filicia nodded until they heard the beast growled. Filicia quickly hid somewhere as the Beast entered.

Destroying gingerbread houses, flipping the table, throwing chairs, and tearing the drapes. Once the Beast left, Angelique climbed on the broken table and Filicia got out of hiding, seeing the mess the Beast has made. "I knew this was hopeless." she said sadly. "FurFrou." Filicia tilts her head down with sadness.
