MidNight's Twisted Tales: The Beast:Who Needs Beauty?!
Sure, we all know that Beauty eventually breaks the curse(or NOT! As this tale will reveal...), but PrinceRich isn't the sort to sit around moping, waiting for Beauty to show up, is he?
After his little incident with that fateful bottle of Love Potion No. 9, PrinceRich tried all methods possible to get his human form back, & while searching through his vast library of spell books, PrinceRich located a damn useful (& more importantly, RELEVANT)magick to aid in his situation.
Thus, armed with this spell, PrinceRich kidnapped a fair number of handsome young men from the village near his castle. Back home, he would skin the victim(s) alive (taking care to cut them open only from places hidden beneath the clothes), climb into the skin, & with the intestines, sew the skin up from the inside. Thus, in this way, PrinceRich could take on the appearance of the young man. Unfortunately, human skin decomposes quickly, so one skin would only last him 2 days, at most 3 before it all fell apart. Still, it was effective, if tedious, so PrinceRich depended on this method to resume Human form for a time.
Soon, the novelty of changing skins constantly wore off, so he consulted his magical contact book to see if anyone could help him to regain his old appearance.
There was,
-The Wicked Witch of the West,
-The Evil Witch of the East,
-The Nefarious Witch of the North, &
-The Sadistic Witch of the South.
Deciding sadism suited him the most, (he had been skinning young men alive, after all!) PrinceRich called up the Sadistic Witch of the South, making her an offer she couldn't refuse.
"I know everybody offers to trade in their souls... yada yada yada... so I'm offering these 5 pretty young things for use as your personal TOY BOYS!" PrinceRich sweet-talked her into restoring him to his handsome Human form.
The Witch agreed, the deal was closed & POOF! PrinceRich regained his handsome human appearance.
& so, the once-again handsome PrinceRich lived out his good old bachelor life happily ever after, never again lusting after beautiful young virgins(but female, this time!) except very occasionally, to indulge in that ritual of skinning people alive. (Old habits die hard. Mawhahahahahahaha!!!)
