Chapter 25: Is this Punishment Part 3: Belle the Beauty

Jack POV

Weeks Later

The entire neighborhood of Burgess in flames. I stare in wide-eyed horror. I can hear so many people screaming in agony.

"No! Please! Somebody help! Somebody stop this!" I cry out loud. I knew what would happen next. I dared not turn. But I do turn to see Jamie and his friends lying on the scorched earth, burning. "No! Not again! Stop it! Please STOOOOOOOOOOP!"

I gasp for air as I sit up. The memory. The very thing that haunts my every waking moment. Why do I keep having it? I don't have it everyday but it always seems to appear and the most inconvenient moments. I check the clock. 11:56 PM. I try to fall back to sleep hoping to dream of something else or nothing at all.

However what happens next seems to give me a massive headache. I think it's a dream, but it feels more like a memory. I want to think it's a dream, but it feels so real. I dreamt of me and Elsa together, yet it was… different.

I dream of a huge mountain and on the top was castle. I couldn't believe it, it was made of ice. I was really amazed by this structure. I'm standing in the center of a grand hall of some kind.

"Wow. Where am I?" I gaze at the beauty. But then I see a figure running up a spiral staircase. She looks familiar. "Who's there?" I call out. The figure kept running up the stairs. "Wait!" I call out. I fly upward following the familiar figure. After a awhile I make it to a another room with a balcony. I slowly approach the person, who is actually a woman. But she looks so familiar. "Um excuse me. Who are you?" The figure slowly turns to look at me. But then the instant I almost see her face my head starts to hurt. "ARGH!" I groan in pain.

I wake up with a headache. What was that? It looked like a fantasy dream, but felt so real. But since we live in world where mythical creatures exist, dream was definitely off that table. That figure though. Who was she? She looked so familiar. She looked just like…

I wake up then next morning feeling like crap. I know I felt this way before. Guess I have to stay home and visit doctor Heart. But then I remember. Dr. Heart made that Emotionnite. I want to call him and ask him, but something tells me I should me speak to him directly. But not in the state I'm in. Man what mess.

"Jack?" Tooth called from the hallway. "Honey, are you okay?" She then walked in all chipper.

"Not really?" I shrug while still in bed.

"Are you sick?" She made a worried face.

"Yep."

Tooth then put a hand on my head to check my temperature. "Wow, you're burning up! Well don't worry about it, I'll go to drug store a get some cold medicine."

"Thanks Tooth." I sighed. "Sorry."

"Hey, chin up now. Look on the bright side, it's Wednesday. Sandy will understand. Weasletown would not." She giggled. Made me chuckle a laugh too. "You just focus on getting better. Okay?"

"Okay." I sighed. She left my room. I then immediately thought of Elsa. I better tell her I'm sick and I can't come to school. So I get out my phone and text her.

J: Sorry. I can't come to school. Feeling sick. Again, I'm so sorry. - :(

However the headaches start to get worse. This happens every time I think of Elsa. Why? Then I thought of the Emotionnite. Heart must have done something to me. Why? Something inside me stirred. I couldn't explain it. It was… anger.

My thoughts were interrupted by my phone vibrating. It was Elsa.

E: Aw, I'm sorry to hear that. I hope you get better soon. - :'(

That face on my text made me feel worried and a little guilty. Did I really make Elsa cry?


Elsa POV

Class with Professor Sandy felt lonely. I missed Jack. I wish he were here. After class I came up to the professor for advice.

"Professor?"

"Yes, Elsa. How can I help you?" Sandy replied.

"Is Jack's cold bad?" I asked in worry. Sandy just sighed.

"Honestly I think he's struggling with his past." Sandy frowned.

"His past?"

"Yes. Though it's not really my place to say it. You'll have to ask him yourself." Sandy said.

"But I don't know how to approach him, anymore." I sighed. "I'm afraid what I might do to him."

"Actually you ask Miss Booker for help." Sandy suggested. "Head to the library on the forth floor. She'll be at the front. You can't miss her."


I took Sandy's advice and went to the library on the top floor. I've been to the library before. It's nice and quiet. I go through the entrance and see a young woman at the front, checking in books.

"Um, excuse me are you Miss Booker?" I asked quietly so is to not disturb anyone reading.

"Yes, my name is Belle. Belle Booker. How can I help you?" She smiles.

"I was told to seek help from you, because I'm kind of having relationship issues." I explain.

"Well I am a librarian and a psychiatrist. So I can help you." She nodded. "So tell me about your relationship issue."

"Well you see." I began. There's this friend I met here and he and I became really close. I… I have a crush on him and I don't know how to approach him. I mean… He has a heart condition." The last sentence I lied about.

"I see." She ponders. "I know exactly how you feel. In fact I can relate to that."

"Really how so?" But before she could answer, someone else walks in. A huge muscular man. Oh wow, another Elvis stereotype.

"Hello Belle." He smirked.

"Hello Gaston." Belle smiled. So that's his name. Gaston then swiped a book from the return pile. "Gaston can you not grabs books like that from the desk?"

"How anyone read this for hours on end? Besides there's no pictures." He examines the book.

"Well using imagination can always work and help pass the time." Belle smirked while crossing her arms. I actually agree.

"Belle. It's about time you get out of your bookworm world and start looking at other things outside." He pointed out. "Like me." He smirked. That was enough to get all the girls to go all fan girl style. Well except for Belle and me, we just rolled our eyes. "It's not good for woman like you to read 24/7. Pretty soon they'll start to get all technical, paranoid, and weird. Not to mention geeky. I'm just trying to look after you that's all." While he does make a good point, it's how he says it that makes it completely wrong and exaggerated.

"Gaston, I believe you're the one getting all paranoid." Belle joked and giggled.

Gaston only laughed it off. "That's a good one Belle. What do you say how about we stop by my house and take a look at some of my trophies."

"Maybe some other time. I have to get a lesson I'm teaching. Plus I'm gonna give my dad a helping hand at the repair shop." Belle explained.

"Well okay. But you're missing out." Gaston smiled, as he existed to library.

"Wow. That guy is some piece of work." Elsa joked.

"That's Gaston. He's a somewhat good friend of mine." Belle explained.

"Somewhat is the word." I giggle. "Anyway you said you had to get to a lesson?"

"Yes. Well I tutoring lesson anyway." She said. "You wanna come with me?"

"Oh no, thank you but I'm sure it's very important."

"Oh no it's okay. I insist. This actually relates to the issue you're having." She explains.

"Are you sure." I ask meekly.

"I insist. Come on." She grabs my hand and we were off.


We took the E train and arrive at the New York Palace Hotel. Only took 27 minutes to get here. Surprisingly it's only a few blocks away from the Plaza Hotel. I'm guessing this man must be a rich noble like me.

"Okay. Follow me." She smiled. We entered the building. It was beautiful. Simply breath taking. I haven't been here before and now it's my first time being here. "Elsa." Belle called. "We're going to the forth floor."

"Okay." I nod.

We take the elevator up to the forth floor. I was till viewing to magnificent designs. I kept following bell until we reached the door.

"This is it." She said. She then rang the buzzer.

"Bonjour?" Said a voice in a French accent.

"It's me, Lumière." She smiled.

"Ah, Belle." The door opened up to a very handsome looking older fella, though to be fair he looks way to skinny. "And how are we today, mademuazel?"

"Wonderful, as usual." She giggled. "Oh Lumière this here is Elsa."

"Hello." I smiled.

"Ah, Bonjour, Elsa." He bowed. "I am Lumière Candlewick. I'm one of the butlers of the McCoy family."

"McCoy. You mean Adam McCoy?" I was actually surprised. The McCoys are a rich noble family who owns every flower shop and mirror shop business in the world. But Adam's parents died from consumption. Without parents to guild him he grew an increasingly bad influence of hate and rage. "I've heard all about the McCoys and their history."

"You do?" Lumière asked in surprise.

"Yes, everything." I nod.

"Well if that's the case, then I suppose I don't have to explain what happened." Lumière said.

"No." I shake my head. "I know."

"That's why we asked miss Booker here to help us." Lumière he gestured to Belle.

"I'm always happy to help, Lumière." Belle smiled.

"Merci, Belle."

"Is that, Belle, Lumière? Is she here?" Called a British accent.

"Oh yes, of course Cogsworth." Lumière hollered back. Then came down a large fat man. Okay, now I know this is an Abbott and Costello routine.

"Oh we also have a guest." He sees me. "My name is Cogsworth Clockwork. One of the butlers of the McCoy family." He bowed.

"Elsa Arendelle." I say. Then both Lumière and Cogsworth gasp in unison.

"Arendelle?" Lumière said in awe.

"You mean THE Arendelle?" Cogsworth said in awe too. It comes as no surprise that they would know my family name.

"Hey, I've heard of you before." Belle smiled in awe. We had a good laugh for a while until…

"Oh, Belle, I think you should head over to the master. He must be waiting for you." Cogsworth said.

"Oh, you're right!" Belle realized. "Well come on then let's not keep Adam waiting."

"Yes of course. This way please." Lumière said as he led us through the room. I guys I'm lucky to finally meet Adam McCoy in person.
