Hey-O! So with the new Beauty and the Beast movie coming out, let's say I'm not too excited about it. The animated movie was perfect the way it was. So here's my contribution. I own nothing except Lynette.

"...with that kiss, their fate was sealed. And they lived together happily till the end of their days."

I closed the book and smiled as I held Chip in my lap.

You might be wondering who I am. My name is Lynette, I am the princess of this castle, sister of Prince Adam. What's that? You didn't know there was a princess? Well then, allow me to tell you my story. I suppose I should start...probably about 12 years ago. The times I was content with my life.

"Will there be anything else you need?" Mrs. Potts asked as she poured me a cup of tea.

Mrs. Potts was the closest thing Adam and I had to a mother those days, especially seeing how our parents...

"No thank you", I answered.

We were in the library and I was busy looking for a book I hadn't read yet. That was one of my many passions. I loved to read. So much so that I aspired to write my own stories someday. I smiled as I saw little Chip peek out from behind his mother's dress. Chip was less than a year old and he was really close to his mother at the time. He went everywhere in the castle with her.

"Chip, aren't you going to say hello, dear?" Mrs. Potts asked.

I watched as the toddler stumbled out from behind his mother's legs. He sucked his thumb as he looked at me shyly. I loved the servants in our castle. I wanted all of them to feel welcome. Much unlike Adam...

"I got something for you", I said going to the door. "Mrs. Potts, if you and Chip could just follow me..."

Mrs. Potts picked up her child in her arms and carried him as she pushed her tea cart into the hallway following me. Thankfully my room was just down the hall, so the elderly woman wouldn't have to struggle taking the cart up or down the stairs. I brought the two of them into my room.

"Your mother told me you were lonely", I said.

Chip sucked his thumb looking at me. Chip was the only child in the castle, so naturally there was no one for him to play with. I smiled as I walked to my bed, pulling the blankets up, looking underneath.

"Sultan, here boy."

A small puppy jumped out from under my bed and into my arms. The puppy licked my face and wagged his tail. Chip smiled as he reached his hand out to pet the dog.

"This is Sultan", I said. "He's a puppy from one of our hunting dogs. Chip, would you like to take care of him for me?"

Mrs. Potts sat Chip down on the floor. Sultan jumped out of my arms and sniffed at the toddler. He wagged his tail and licked his face before running out of the room. Chip giggled as he followed the dog out. I gasped at what sounded like yelling before something fell to the floor.

"Oh, dear!" Mrs. Potts said as she got up to see what happened.

I followed her and looked outside the hallway to see Cogsworth on the floor. Sultan was in his lap licking his face.

"Sultan, settle boy!" I said helping Cogsworth. "Are you okay?"

Cogsworth couldn't remember what happened. He was coming upstairs to remind Mrs. Potts Adam wanted tea. The next thing he knew a dog ran toward him, tripping him. Chip giggled as the dog licked him.

"Are you okay?"

Cogsworth looked up and gasped when he saw who was helping him. "Mistress!"
