Much More than Provincial Life

Welcome, amigos! To the new chapter of…..Chipette and the Beast! And now, we invite you to relax, just pull up a chair, as FanFiction proudly presents…your new chapter!

It's Bagdasanio village at the morning, it zooms to a large cottage, where a beautiful girl, with auburn hair in ponytail, wearing a crimson dress with crystal blue eyes wearing silver shoes is seen getting out while carrying a big basket. Her name is Bella, and of course, it's no wonder that her name means beauty, she is quite a beautiful girl! She begins to sing

Bella :
Little town, it's a quiet village
Everyday, like the one before.
Little town, full of little people
Waking up to say…

Suddenly the clocks strikes 7 am, and many people were already seen opening their shops or minding their own businesses, but still has time to greet each other.

Villagers :
iHola!
iHola!
iHola!
iHola!
iHola!

Bella continued to sing while walking down the village.

Bella :
There goes the baker with his tray as always
The same old bread and rolls to sell

Bella takes what seems to be a nice-looking cheese buns and pays for it to the baker

Bella :
Every morning just the same
Since the day that we had came
To this provincial town

Bella stops when, Senor Jon, the village's potter greets her

Sr. Jon : Buenos dias, Bella!

Bella : Buenos dias, Sr. Jon, Have you lost something again?

Sr. Jon : Yes, I think, but, I just can't remember what (Bella laughs) Ah, I'll sure it'll come to me. Where are you off to?

Bella : To Sr. Roberto's bookshop to return this, it's about a snow queen and her sister.

Sr. Jon : Sounds nice, but…Maria! The baguettes!

Villagers :
Look there she goes that girl is strange no question
Dazed and distracted can't you tell?
Never part of any crowd
Like her head's up on some cloud
No denying she's a funny girl that Bella

Yes, the villagers ridiculed Bella for her bibliophilic nature despite her beauty. Though Bella just walks by while smiling at them with the usual beautiful smile

Villagers :
iHola! Good day! How is your family?
iHola! Good day! How is your wife?
I need ten eggs
It's too expensive!

Bella :
There must be more than this provincial life

She arrives at Senor Roberto's bookshop, and as she arrives, Senor Roberto, an old, dark-skinned man is busy dusting his cabinet of books.

Senor Roberto : Ah, if it isn't the only bookworm in town, so where do you run off this week?

Bella : A city in Norway, It's quite cold there, but do you have any new places to go?

Senor Roberto : Yes, a city in France!

Bella : Well, while I'd like to go to Polynesia with demigods, giant crabs, and magic hooks, maybe I'll give that city a chance

Senor Roberto : (gives the book) There ya go, adios!

Bella : Your bookshop makes the corner of our world feel big

Bella started to read said book while the villagers continued to make fun of her like before.

The villagers :
Look there she goes that girl is so peculiar
I wonder if she's feeling well
With a dreamy far-off look
And her nose stuck in a book
What a puzzle to the rest of us is Bella

Bella then sits in a fountain and continues to read the book while some dogs gets close to her

Bella :
Oooooh, isn't this amazing?
It's my favorite part, cause, you see, here's….
Where she meets Prince Charming
But she won't discover it was him till chapter three

She goes from the fountain back to her home while continuing to read

Woman :
Now it's no wonder that her name means beauty
Her looks are indeed unparalleled

Three girls that looked like Charlene the Chipette, but wearing red, blue, and green continued and sneers at her

The Lasses :
But behind that fair façade
I'm afraid she's really odd

Woman :
Very different from the rest of us

The Lasses :
SHE'S NOTHING LIKE THE REST OF US!

Villagers :
Yes, different from the rest of us is BELLA!

(From the village's distant, two horses approached with two man in it. One is a man called Gaston, the one in red soldier-looking coat with a muscular build, and the other is a man called Elfou, a chubby man but muscular too wearing a green soldier-looking coat. Gaston is looking at Bella with his telescope)

Gaston : Look at her Elfou, my future wife, Bella is the most beautiful girl in this village! That makes her the best! And don't I deserve the best?

Elfou : But she's so well-read, while you were so…well-powered.

Gaston : Yes, but ever since the war I thought I'm missing something, she's the only girl who gives me that sense of..

Elfou : hmmm…..No se lo que?

Gaston : I don't know what that means

Gaston and Elfou's horses then approached the village while Gaston started to sang

Gaston :
Just from the moment as I met her saw her
I said she's pretty and I fell
In this town there's only she
Who's as beautiful as me
So I'm making to plans to woo and marry Bella

As they approached the village, the Lasses sees Gaston and becomes smitten at him and starts to sing in admiration

The Lasses :
Look there she goes
Isn't he dreamy?
Senor Gaston
Oh he's so cute!
Be still, our hearts!
We're barely breathing!
He's such dark, strong, tall, and handsome BRUTE!

Gaston's horse sprayed them with a water from the puddle. Elfou approached them sand said

Elfou : Not even in your wildest dreams, ladies.

As both Gaston and Elfou walks slowly to stalk Bella, the villagers continued their daily lifes as usual

Villagers :
iHola! Good day!
You call this bacon?
How lovely flowers!
Such cheese!
Ten yards!
One pounds!
I'll get the knife
Excuse me!

Gaston :
Please let me through

Villagers :
This bread
It's stale!
They smell!
Madame's mistaken!

Bella :
There must be more than this provincial life

Gaston comes out all of a sudden with a bunch of flowers

Gaston :
Just watch I'm going to make Bella my wife!

The villagers continued to sing while minding their own business as Bella continued to read with her usual pretty face

The villagers :
Look there she goes the girl is strange but special
A most peculiar senorita!
It's a pity and a sin
She doesn't quite fit in
Though she really is a funny girl
A beauty but a funny girl
She really is a funny girl…..
THAT BELLA!

As they finish the final line, they get back to pretend to do their usual routines.

Gaston suddenly comes and approached Bella with the flowers he bought for her

Gaston :
Buenos dias, Bella! What a lovely book you got there! (grabs the book and sees through it) How do you read this?

Bella :
Well, I need to use my wild imagination, you know, and, how do you know? Have you read it?

Gaston :
Not that one, but, you know, books...Here's for your dinner table (hands over the flowers to Bella) You're free this evening?

Bella :
Sorry, not this evening...

Gaston :
Oh, you're busy?

Suddenly Gaston noticed Bella has run off when Elfou comes and approach him

Elfou :
So, moving on now?

Gaston :
No, buddy, the ones who played hard are the more fun prey. That's what makes Bella a special one, she hasn't made a fool of herself just to gain my favour. What is that called?

Elfou :
Dignity

Gaston :
Isn't this attractive?

The ladies in red, blue, and green suddenly whistles and pose in a flirty manner and smiles at Gaston as he approached them

That's the end for Chapter 1.

And if you want to know, I actually listened to the original "Belle" song while writing this chapter, just to get the mental image of Brittany walking around a village while reading a book with her usual pretty face while she was being ridiculed.

Before you said "Jeanette should have been Bella!", I'll said this, remember when Brittany becomes Cinderella in the 80s episode Cinderella, Cinderella? Cinderella is a female protagonist who was always being bullied by her step-family and Brittany actually played a good job playing a bullied girl before becoming a princess, so, why not Brittany as Bella?

And yes, I just put references to Moana, Frozen, and Cinderella.

Well, amigos! That's it! Next time, we will see a fatherly bond between Maurice Seville and his daughter!
