Chapter 20: Monster

Belle and the others banged and pushed on the door to no avail, "We have to warn him! Oh this is all my fault! If only we'd never left the compound none of this would have happened!"

Tony faced her, "Why should we warn him?! He's a horrible Beast."

"He's not horrible Papa! He's, changed somehow. You now how frightened I was- how we all were when we first met him, but now..." Belle slid down the door, "There's been a change in me. A kind of moving on. Though what I used to be, I still depend upon."

Belle looked around at her family, all with dad and imploring eyes, and she kept on singing, "For now I realize, that good can come from bad. That may not make me wise but, oh, it makes me glad! And I- I never though I'd leave behind, my childhood dreams but I don't mind! For now I love the world I see. No change of heart, a change in me."

She crawled over and held her father's hands, "For in my dark despair. I slowly understood. My perfect world, out there, had disappeared for good. But in it's place I feel, a truer life begin! And it's so good and real, it must come from within, and I- I never thought I'd leave behind, my childhood dreams but I don't mind! I'm where and who I want to be. No change of heart, a change in me!"

She took out the rattle she found in her old home and placed it in Tony's hands, "No change of heart, a change in... me."

Tony stared at the rattle, "How did you get this?!"

"He took me there Papa. I know what happened to Maman."

Tony looked up with tears in his eyes and hugged his daughter, "I've only ever wanted to keep you safe."

"I know Papa, but I have to warn him!"

"It'll be dangerous." He said factly.

"Yes, yes it will."

They stared lovingly at each other when a throat cleared and they looked at their cell mates, "Hey, there's an angry mob going after our friends but by all means, keep having a soap opera moment."

Tony scrambled over to the carriage to look at the pad lock, "Oh, this town must be old school, really old. Just the news something sharp..."

Belle reached behind her and pulled out a pin from her hair and held it in front of her father. He took it smiling like a fool.

The objects and former Avengers held themselves against the door as the mob continued to ram it "This isn't working!" Bucky shouted, bracing the for with his metal arm.

Plumette looked down at the candelabra, "Oh Lumiere, what zo we do?"

Lumiere's candles grew brighter, "I know!"

The villagers kept ramming and shouting until the door burst open and they were greeted by a normal looking castle. They all walked around, taking in the sight, some villagers saying, "This feels familiar... like I've been here before."

LeFou walked over to a small table with a tea pot and a little cup. "Awe, aren't you just adorable!" He looked at the tea pot, "And you must be his grandmother!"

Mrs. Potts opened her eyes, "Grandmother?! Attack!!!"

All the objects came to life with Lumiere standing front and center, "Hello!"

The Avengers came into view at the top of the stairs, Clint knocking an arrow into place, "And good bye!" An arrow flew into one of the armed men and there was a flurry of movement. Chapeau, the coat rack, slapped LeFou repeatedly, falcon, Steve, and Bucky took on the armed men Natasha and Scott backing up Mrs. Potts who was pouring scolding hot tea all over more townsfolk, Lumiere slightly burning more villagers.

Wanda ran behind Garderobe as three men came up after her, Garderobe stung open her drawers and next thin the men knew they were wearing dresses. Two ran off while one admired himself in Garderobe's mirror. LeFou stumbled back after his beating from Chapeau and found himself about it be crushed by Cadenza, "Gaston!!!" The harpsichord crashed down on him and he looked up, pleading, "Gaston, help me!"

Gaston had no remorse, "Sorry friend, its hero time." And he march off to find his prey.

-

Monsieur D'hark, operator of the town's insane asylum, came back to check in the prisoners he was left in charge of, only to find the doors wide open and the car aide empty.

He turned to see Belle, who pulled her dress off and was now clad in her undergarments and a shawl, and Kate ride off on Phillipe with Vision tailing them.

D'hark turned back to see Tony and Rhodes sitting at a table playing a game of poker, "Tell me, have you ever had kids?"

-

Loki has watched the whole thing unfold since day one. He watched Beast save Belle, the two slowly get along, be ripped apart, and watched with glee as the Beast's only hope was dashed as he let her go. Amora came walking in, "Hella's lose! She's bringing Ragnorok, I hope she burns Asgard to- what are you doing?"

"Oh, observing."

Amora stepped closer and her eyes went wide, "Is that The Prince?! What's happening?!"

Loki shrugged, "Oh your normal angry mob invading the castle, a hunter about it kill a Beast, and a heartless man has lost everything."

Amora shook her head, "This wasn't supposed to happen! Did you do this?!"

"I may have given our Beast to Hydra after you left him, which has caused our cousin of events-"

"You went behind my back-!"

"Only to help you! He deserved it!"

"That maybe so, but it's not the point!" Loki stared at the mirror showcasing the scene. Amora drew an exasperated breath, "Why did you do it? Why did you not tell me about Jane? Why did you tell me about The Prince? Why do you help me?"

Loki turned back to her, "Think, my dear Amora, just think."

Amora stood stall still then spoke so softly he could barely hear the words leave her mouth, "You love me."

Loki cracked a smile, "Took you long enough."

-

Gaston made his way through the dark halls until he made his way into the West Wing. He cautiously made his way up to the tower and found Beast still in the same spot. Gaston pulled out his pistol and aimed it at him, "Hello Beast." Beast slowly turned to face the man. "I'm Gaston."
