Unexpectedly, a musical blare caused an earthquake!

"What is it mama?" Chip asked as tiny pieces of the ceiling fell around us. "What's happening?"

The wooden beams of the ceiling then fell!

"Watch out!" Angelique cried as she and some of the others dodged the beams.

"Forte." Fife said to himself.

I overheard.

"I knew we couldn't trust him." I growled.

"Hurry now, hurry!" Mrs. Potts said as the ornaments moved towards the wall behind her.

Camera went to Forte's room.

"Can you believe I never took a lesson?" Forte jeered.

Actually, I can believe it.

Camera went back to the dungeon.

Unfortunately, as Beast and Harry tried to push the door open (the earthquake slammed it shut and caused it to lock) the room started splitting apart! Belle and the rest of us were trapped on the other side!

"Belle!" Beast said.

"Guys!" Harry said.

They quickly rushed towards us, but it was too late.

"Oh no!" Belle said.

"Belle!" Beast said again.

Harry looked at us worriedly.

"Help!" Belle said.

Camera went back and caught up with Fife, who had just reached the West Wing. Fife whistled as he opened the door to Forte's room and peered in.

"Maestro!" Fife cried, rushing in. "Stop!"

Forte stopped playing.

"What do you think you're doing?" Fife asked, disgusted.

"Don't you see Fife? They can't fall in love, if they're dead!" Forte laughed evilly.

"I'll tell you what I see!" Fife retorted. "A big old windbag!"

Forte just continued laughing evilly, causing Fife to laugh nervously.

"You could have joined me Fife, but I see my triumph is a solo act." Forte teased.

His musical earthquake caused a flurry of blank papers to fall out of a trunk.

"My solo!" Fife cried, holding up a piece of paper. "It's blank!" Fife glared at Forte; well this explained a lot.

Forte continued laughing.

"So naïve, you're second fiddle Fife, and that's all you'll ever be!" Forte jeered, his voice even reaching the dungeon.

"FORTE!" Beast and Harry roared.

They crashed through the dungeon door and ran up the stairs.

"We can remain as we are forever and ever!" Forte cried before laughing sinisterly.

"FORTE!" Beast and Harry roared again before slamming the doors open. "ENOUGH!"

"Heavens, masters." Forte said, startled

There was a pause as Beast and Harry walked into the room….

"YOU'RE NOT SINGING!" Forte sneered.

A couple of blasts of glowing green music notes zoomed out of Forte's pipes and hit Beast and Harry, knocking them off of their feet!

Belle, meanwhile, lay a wooden beam across the break in the floor.

"You guys go first, I'll catch up." I ordered.

Belle got on the wooden beam first, and she and some of the others started balancing on the beam.

"Here we go, careful." She said nervously.

She and the servants and ornaments managed to make it across. Rip then flew the others over the break. Suddenly, a huge rock fell down and broke through the beam! Belle, the servants, and the rest of the team were worried but I wasn't. I backed up, and with a determined look leapt right over the break! I made it to the other side, barely. My back paws were only half an inch away from the break.

The ornaments stayed behind, but Belle, the servants, and the rest of the team and I ran up the stairs and made our way into the West Wing. The servants stayed behind, but the rest of us went into Forte's room. That's when we noticed Beast and Harry lying stunned on the floor.

"Harry!" Lily said as she, James, and Sirius ran over to him.

James helped Harry up as a few of the rest of us helped Beast up.

"Oh no! The bell jar!" Lumière cried from the next room.

The earthquake was shaking the jar and rose near the edge of the table! Lumière picked up Cogsworth, who grabbed the bell jar just in time.

"Whoa! Got it! Got it!" Lumière cried as he stumbled around a little.

"Careful!" Angelique said.

"Is this happy enough for you masters?" Forte jeered. "I know I'm downright giddy!"

"Quick, stop him!" I ordered.

Ron W, Hermione, and the members of the team who could fight, got their weapons ready. The ones without weapons, like Jackie, tried first, but Forte's music was just too powerful. A few of the ones with weapons tried next, but it only worked for a short time. Those of us with magical abilities then tried, but Forte's music got us first. Numbuh One and his team then tried, but a music beam was heading straight for them! Before it could hit them, I leapt forward and took the beam, but instead of being knocked off my feet I was holding the beam at bay with my head!

"Get out of here!" I ordered.

Numbuh One and the others quickly got out of the way. I continued holding the beam at bay, until I slowly started walking towards Forte, pushing the beam in the process.

"Miranda look out!" Numbuh 274 cried.

Forte had sent another beam so that it was aiming for my side! Before I could react, the beam struck me and sent me flying through a window! I quickly conjured up a pole, so that it was sticking out of the wall, and grabbed it. I then started climbing back to Forte's room.

"We'll never see that troublemaker again!" Forte jeered.

Numbuh Three saw me at the window.

"Wanna bet?" She smirked.

"That's a sucker bet!" Forte retorted.

"Yeah, and you're the sucker!" I growled.

Startled, Forte didn't have time to react before I leapt and landed on his miniature keyboard, knocking it over. Forte gasped as his music beams weakened and turned into mournful ghosts before disappearing.

"Got it, got it." Lumière and Cogsworth said randomly as they made their way back to the table.

Cogsworth managed to grab a hold of the table and set the bell jar on it. Lumière fell down, and so did Cogsworth after a few seconds.

I then rushed towards the keyboard and knocked off of the pedestal that Forte rested on. The keys broke off as it crashed onto the floor, and Forte and his columns and pipes started falling. I quickly ran and leapt off the keyboard so that he wouldn't land on me. Forte crashed to the ground, dead. The team looked at me a little surprised.

"No one messes with Christmas and gets away with it while I'm around." I declared.

"Forte." Beast said sadly.

Much later, the servants were waiting for us at the ballroom.

"Oh yes it is lovely." Mrs. Potts smiled.

"And you said it was impossible." Lumière teased Angelique good-naturedly.

"*Uh-uh-uh-uh.*" Angelique corrected with a smile. "I said it was impossible without me."

"Everyone *shh-shh*! Here they come!" Cogsworth said.

Ax and some log picks grunted as they opened the doors, and Beast and Harry led Belle and the rest of us inside.

"The setting is perfect." Cogsworth said, excited. "Oh aren't they beautiful?"

Belle and the rest of us noticed the decorated Christmas tree.

"It's wonderful!" Belle said.

We all laughed and cheered. The rest of Christmas was spent just the way it should be. Oh, and Fife? Well he had been forgiven. In fact, after Belle and Beast heard about why he was helping Forte only to realize that he was on the wrong side Beast decided to make him the head musician of the castle's band.
