A/N: Hey everyone! So I am so sorry that I haven't updated in forever! You see two weeks ago I lost power due to that awful hurricane Sandy. So not only was I internet deprived but I was also TV deprived, and not to mention Fanfiction deprived! Honestly it was terrible…I couldn't even turn a light bulb. However I know that things could have turned out a lot worse so I'm not complaining too much. Anyways so I eventually got my power back but then my lap top started having issues and it wouldn't let me log in! I had to be on mobile and we all know that it's impossible to update through mobile. It was being so stupid- my I-pod wouldn't even let me review stories, so it was just so irritating! Also school has been killing me, considering that I lost a whole week of it. My teachers just decided to go homework crazy on me…not fun guys, just no! Anyways I want to give a big shout out to RandomFandom5, Ribon95, Avril Lambert, and my best friend Demi Brackensick for reviewing! Enjoy chapter 5 everyone…
"Who the hell do you think you are?" Gaston growled as he gripped on to his wife's arm and then viciously threw her to the ground. He smirked in triumphant when he saw her fall, and waited until she got up on all fours before kicking her in the stomach.
Vanessa once again found herself on the floor as more tears formed in her eyes, "I-I'm sorry Gaston…please? Please just stop? I'm sorry! I'm sorry. I won't disobey you; I won't ever disobey you again... I promise."
His smirked only widened as he roughly picked her up bridal style, and then rapidly darted towards the bedroom "You're going to be a good little wife."
"But Gaston my b-body it h-h-hurts," she whispered meekly but he paid no mind to her whimpering. Instead he just threw her rather sore body on to their mattress before mounting forcing himself on top of her.
Gaston licked his lips hungrily as he eyed her nude body, knowing that soon his own expose body would be inside of her "You are such a dirty little wife. Now, tell me where you want to be touched? Go on now, be a good little wife and tell me."
Vanessa began to panic and decided she'd tell him to do something that would not only please him but it would also be painless. She tried to hide her fearful expression and replace it with a false lustful one, "Kiss me my husband."
The hunter smirked as he wrapped his arms around his wife's fragile waist. Gaston then rapidly pulled her into an agonizingly sloppy kiss. It took the man a while to force himself to part his own lips from those of his wife, "That was delicious Vanessa. Now, wrap your arms around my waist!"
The brunette reluctantly nodded her head as she did as she was told. Vanessa closed her eyes, wishing that she could go back to a simpler time in her life. However before she knew it her husband had started satisfying his needs, and only one thought roamed her mind "Melody…where are you?"
Melody tried her best to pick up her pace. It was getting later and later with each and every passing minute, and time itself just wouldn't let her keep up. She continued to dart in and out of alleys; hoping that the shortcuts would help her get home faster but they did no such thing.
She continued jogging through Corona, and eventually she ended up stumbling into Town Square. When she got the chance to look around, she realized that she was lost in a huge mod of people "Oh God how am I supposed to find an exit?"
Melody tried her best to get out of the huge mob but ended up accidentally bumping into a young woman. She fell back and the next thing she knew, Melody was on the ground "Oh gosh, I am so sorry ma'am! I can be such a klutz!"
The young woman turned around and shot the young girl a warm smile. She then put her hand out for the other girl to grab, "Oh don't worry about sweetie! It's a large crowd and it's easy to get lost or bump into a people. Um, you wouldn't happen to be lost would you?"
Melody shook head as she gratefully took the woman's hand in order to pick herself up from the ground, "I'm just trying to get home and I somehow ended up getting lost in the crowd. My name is Melody, what about you?"
"My name is Jasmine. Um, if you aren't in a rush you really should stay. The reason there's such a big crowd is because they're putting on a show tonight! And I just love the theatre," Jasmine let out a dreamy sighed as she gestured over to the stage. It was rather large and people were practically fighting over the front row. There were no seats so everyone was standing up.
The young twelve year old fixed her hair into a messy ponytail, and then placed a few strands of loose hair behind her ear. She smiled faintly at Jasmine; she was glad that she had bumped into such a friendly person and watching a play really did sound like fun! But she needed to get home, "I'd love to but my mother doesn't like it when I stay home late. I'm already late as it is so I need to just keep on going."
"Oh believe me dear I completely understand. Let me guess, the reason you're going home late is because you were meeting up with your boyfriend, right?" she inquired with a raised eyebrow expression.
Melody felt herself blush a bit as she nodded her in head in reply, "H-how did you know? Is it that obvious?"
Jasmine laughed a bit but shook her head, not wanting to make the girl feel as if she couldn't lie convincingly "No it's just I recognize the look in your eyes. It practically spells out 'I'm in love' so there's no point in trying to hide it. Not from at least, if it's your mother you're trying to fool I'm sure you'll do a great job!"
"Okay then…thanks, I guess?" she shrugged innocently as felt her cheeks begin to burn up from Jasmine's comment about being in love. Was it really that noticeable? Did she really have the word 'love-struck' written on her forehead? Was there really a dreamy look in Melody's eyes?
Suddenly another man sneaked up behind Jasmine, and then softly tapped her on the shoulder. Melody watched with keen interest as Jasmine turned around, and immediately she smiled brightly at the man who had tapped her on her shoulder.
"Oh my goodness, John it's you!"
John flashed the young woman a charming smile, "It's nice to see you again Jasmine. Now tell me how is everything going with you?"
Jasmine took a second to think about it, and although a million thoughts roamed her mind she couldn't stop looking into his outstanding blue eyes, "Everything is going great with me. I'm actually here with my boyfriend who should be around here somewhere? Um, what are you doing here?"
"I guess this is my cue," Melody told herself before swiftly running away without even saying a farewell or waving goodbye. No, instead she attentively made her way out of the large crowd people and continued on her way home…
John took a second to look around, almost as if he were searching for one. However he quickly gave her a fast response, "I came here with my little sister Giselle. She's a bit of a theatre fanatic, and I didn't like the idea of her walking around Corona late at night by herself."
She nodded at his words, finding his act of kindness to be very noble "Why am I not surprised that you're the overly protective big-brother type?"
He shrugged at her words; he certainly was protective of his younger sister. But he wouldn't necessarily call himself overly protective, "I wouldn't say I'm overly-protective but yeah, I guess you could say I watch my younger sister like a hawk. It's what my dad would have wanted me to do."
"I'd love to meet her! I have an older sister too so us younger siblings need to-" Suddenly Jasmine was cut off when she felt a strong pair of arms wrap themselves around her waist as pair of lips softly kissed her cheek.
Aladdin let go of his girlfriend and he quickly introduced himself to the blue-eyed, blonde stranger "Hi there! My names Aladdin, what's your name?"
"John," the other man told him as he felt himself to grow a little jealous. It wasn't an emotion he liked, and to be frank…John had no idea where it was coming from!
Jasmine could sense the tension but she brushed it off, and convinced herself that she was just being silly "John this is my boyfriend Aladdin, and Aladdin this is my friend John. We met the other day at the marketplace..."
"I can't stand to stay here any longer. I just need to get away from all of this," Meg muttered to herself as she dashed over to her closet, and opened it in a hurry. She then took out her red scarf, and carefully wrapped it around her neck.
She felt a shiver go up her spine as she took off her heels, and then put on her casually brown colored sandals "Why am I so cold? I'm probably coming down with a stupid cold!"
Meg rolled her eyes in annoyance as she made her way out of her bedroom, making sure to slam the door shut in frustration. Before she knew it she was making her way down the ladder and the second her feet touched the ground, she allowed a sense of comfort to take over.
She spun around in the opposite direction and started walking off in the direction she wanted to, "I need to get out of Corona, at least for an hour. I need to just escape all this madness."
As Meg started making her way deeper into the alley, she started feeling as if someone was following her. It was an unnerving emotion which was driving her crazy because she hated feeling defenseless.
"I'm probably just being paranoid," she reassured herself as she immediately dashed out of the alley, and into a rather deserted street. Meg wasn't surprised that the street was rather deserted, after all a show was being put on in Town Square.
Meg continued walking through the empty streets, unaware that something awful waited for her in the woods. Of course that's exactly where she was going, the woods…
Melody pushed open her bedroom door window, and immediately jumped inside. She let out a comforting sigh the second she felt her back slam against her plush like mattress. Melody then stood up on her knees, and using all the force she had she shut her windows closed. She instantly spun around in the opposite direction, and then jumped off her bed in a hurry.
The young twelve year old haste fully opened her bedroom door, and the dashed into the kitchen. She looked around the room, realizing her mother was nowhere to be found "Mother? Mother where are you? Please tell me you're okay?"
She began to panic and she decided to make the rash decision of bursting into her parent's room, without even considering what may be lurking behind that door. The second she entered their room she felt her jaw drop in horror!
"Father, stop it!" Melody cried as she darted towards Gaston, praying that it wasn't too late to fix all this…
