"Made by Fingersmaster Enjoy!" "Beauty and the Beast" "Once upon a time, there was a rich merchant." "He was a kind and brave man." "After his dear wife had passed away, he only lived for the happiness of his six children, three daughters and three sons." "They filled the house with the sound of their laughter and their squabbles." "We have a little guest." "She wants to hear the story as well." "We'll all make a wish." "But silently or it will never come true." "Did you make your wish?" "Yes!" "Then, one... two... three." "Well then, would you like to hear the rest of the story?" " Yes!" " Yes!" "The merchant owned three ships that made him wealthy and proud." "The ships' names were "The Mermaid", "The Triton", and the largest was "The Leviathan"." "Their holds were loaded with wonders as they were coming back from a long voyage." "But, all of a sudden, they were caught in a terrible storm." "The ships were swept away by enormous waves." "Lightning tore their sails and broke their masts." "Under the surface, where coldness and silence reigned, the ocean began to sparkle in thousands of lights." "The armada and its riches sank to the bottom, swallowed and lost forever." "Bankrupt within a month, the merchant and his children had to leave their house, their friends and their way of life." "Everything that had made them happy so far." "I forbid you to take that!" "Go on, help yourselves then." "We will take the most valuable things with us." "Oh, no!" "Put that down immediately or I'll pluck your eyes out!" "Daddybear, do something." "They're taking everything, our jewels, our beds, everything." "It's the end, I want to die." "Clotilde, would you please not call me "Daddybear" in front of these people?" "And you Anne, stop talking about dying!" "Oh, my heart!" "It stopped." "Are you happy now?" "Farewell!" "As you can see, Daddybear, it's a disaster." "What will become of us?" "I need someone here.." "Where is Belle?" "Belle, Belle!" "He only cares about her." "They've lost everything." " Oh, my God!" " I used to work for them!" "Wake up already!" "Maxime, come help us!" "There." " What's inside?" " All my books." "My notebooks, my sketches..." "I could never leave them behind." "Tristan!" " What is it?" " Keep an eye on your father." "And don't let Maxime squander what little you have left." "Of course." "Don't worry." "I promise." "Everything will be alright." "Be careful." "If there's another one who laughs, I'll break his nose." "Ignore them." "Come on." "Let's have a bit of fun before burying ourselves in the countryside?" "It would be better for you to stay away." "Don't you think?" "Belle!" "Belle!" "This is for you, Mom." "A new life is beginning for us and I think I'm ready." "Do you think she would have liked to live in the countryside?" " She would have loved it." " I will like it, too." " I am sure of it." " Of course." "We have pride and courage in our family." "We will stick together as we always have." "It took them some time to get used to their new life." "The first nights, Belle stayed up to listen to the sounds of the countryside." "And then, with the help of her brothers, she decided to clean the garden and turn their house into a beautiful haven." "I have a fever." "Oh no, I have a wrinkle!" "Aah, this bug just won't stop!" "We've been living in this hell for a month." "We'll die alone and crumpled." "Devoured by beasts." "Anne, Clotilde, come down now!" "Not her again!" "Her happiness digusts me." "I want to drown her in the well." "And I want to bury her alive in her blasted garden." "What are you two doing?" "Clotilde is feeling sick, so we will have breakfast in bed." "Certainly not." "And after lunch we'll all go to work in the garden." " I'd rather die." " Get up!" "Everybody downstairs!" "Defeated... comma pierced by arrows the young man left the battlefield... and took shelter in the forest." "One could say that they were very happy to see me at the "Office of Maritime Affairs"." "Dumont was very nice." "Apparently, his eldest daughter married a count." " What?" " Oh, no!" "But, the big news is that "The Mermaid", your mother's favourite ship, has been found." "She drifted along the coast, so they towed her into the harbour." " What about the load?" " Completely intact." "My children, I believe we are saved!" "Let's pack our things!" "Actually, no." "Let's just throw everything in the fire!" "I can feel my blood flowing again." "I am alive, Daddybear." "I am reborn." "We can't go back to town in this state." "No." "We'll need new dresses, perfume, and... what else?" " We'll make a list." " Yes." " We'll enjoy the pleasures of the town!" " The town, the real town!" "Will you come with me to town?" "It is time that I introduced my successor to Dumont." "I will not disappoint you, Father." "Thank you." "After defeating the last of his enemies, the young man returned home..." "Triumphant and praised by his people." "The end." "A new novel, my brother?" "Something even better." "This one will be a masterpiece." "What are you doing?" "Are you sulking?" "Obviously." "When a girl is sad, they say she's sulking." "And when she's too happy, they say she's crazy." "How can you expect to be understood?" "Everybody's happy but you." "I would have liked to stay here a little longer." "That's all." "There he is." "We only came here to hide our misfortune, but we don't belong here." "You know as well as I do what's going to happen." "Maxime will hang out again with those rogues he calls 'friends'." "Anne and Clotilde will go out every evening looking for husbands." "And you will be constantly busy with your work." "Belle, one day or another we will no longer be together." "You will grow up and you will want to start your own life." "But that won't mean we don't love each other any more." "It will only mean that you've grown up." "Be sure not to forget anything." "Clotilde wouldn't take it very well." "And you, what should I bring back for you?" "Only a rose." "I've never been able to grow any here." "They have taken everything from me." "They even refused to let me come aboard my own ship." "You have to accept the situation." ""The Mermaid" and all its load don't belong to you any more." "They treat me like a nobody!" "Yet, without me, this place would still be a fishing port." "And you won't lift a finger!" "You lacked common sense, my poor friend." "You signed all the promissory notes, even though I warned you not to." "Don't patronize me, Dumont." "If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be sitting behind this desk." "Have you lost your manners as well as your wealth?" " I am going to smash your head!" " Stop that immediately!" "Don't you understand?" "You no longer have any power." "You're acting like a wealthy, important man, but you're nothing." "I feel sorry for you, Father." "Maxime!" "I see a man." "Don't ignore him." "He will carry important news." "News?" "Good or bad?" "You know very well that it depends on the other cards." "Don't you want to please me, Astrid?" "Tell me something exciting." "I am like the cards, my love." "I can't lie to you." "Did I not warn you about your scar?" "A torrent of gold under an emerald moon." "Fate is smiling at you." "Gold!" "Emeralds!" "Come on, my wretched fellows!" "Didn't I tell you we'd become rich?" "This is a bad night." "It smells like gunpowder." " What can I get you?" " I am looking for my son." "I was told that he comes here often." "A regular of this slum." "Well then, I feel sorry for you." "What is your son's name?" "Maxime de Beaufremont." "You should have spoken more quietly." "I will have to let you leave through the back door." " But I have to find my son!" " Well, you're not the only one." "Quickly, come behind the counter." "Your scent... your prophecies..." "You have too much power over me." "Monsieur de Beaufremont." "I have been looking for Maxime for months, and I happen to stumble on his old father." "I don't know you." "And you are...?" "Perducas." "At your service." "Your little boy owes me a lot of money." "That's why you and I will strike a deal and everything will be forgiven." "My son doesn't consort with crooks!" "Serve them a round of drinks so that they will leave me alone." "He takes us for beggars!" "No more of this here, Perducas." "You know that." "Leave the poor man alone." "All right." "Back off." "And you, come quickly behind the counter." "Come on, hurry up!" "I wish you luck because he won't leave you alone." "Now leave, quickly!" "On his way home, the merchant struggled with the wind, the cold and the sadness." "He had left the town without Maxime." "He pictured him wandering, in the gutters, or worse, lying dead in an alley." "He pulled the reins of his horse, hoping to return home as soon as possible, and find his son waiting." "I don't even have a weapon to end your misery." "Forgive me." "The house." "I made it!" "But this is not the house!" "Is anyone there?" "I've lost my way." "And the door was open." "Who's there?" "I must be dreaming." "Or I have died and gone to heaven." "No, I am quite alive." "And I'm hungry." "I will help myself to some of the things on the table." "All right?" "The dresses..." "The shawls..." "The blusher..." "Incredible, all these things are here." "Well, almost all." "But who took care of you?" "Are my presents not enough for you?" "Do you also have to steal what I treasure most?" "I won't be treated as a thief nor a coward." "I am a just and honourable man." "Who did you pick this rose for?" "My youngest daughter." "She is the most precious thing to me." "Then I will give you one day to say goodbye to your loved ones." "You only need to whisper the words:" ""More than anything in the world", to your horse, and he will bring you back here." " I will not return." " Oh, yes, you will." "Otherwise, I will kill all your family, one after another." "I will kill your youngest daughter last, since she is your favourite." "Remember..." "A life for a rose." "There!" "Yes, it's him!" "I can see him down there!" "Father!" "Father!" "Father!" "Father!" "This story about a beast and a rose, it doesn't make sense." "Well how do you explain that then?" "You can see it's real." ""More than anything in the world."" "And as if by magic, the horse will find its way to the castle?" "It's our fault, it's all our fault." " It wasn't you who asked for that flower." " It's nobody's fault!" "Silence." "I cannot explain who this Beast is, but... for having stolen this rose, I have to go back there in a few hours." " What will he do to you?" " I do not know, Tristan." "He said - "a life for a rose"." " And if you don't comply?" " Then we'll die." "All of us." "Don't say anything." "I know what they're all thinking." " That Mum died while giving birth to me." " I don't understand what you mean." "I will not be responsible for your death as well!" "Belle!" "Belle!" "Belle!" "Don't forget to love me." "Belle!" "Belle!" "Belle!" " Belle!" " Father, no!" "Guide me to the castle and take me to that Beast." ""More than anything in the world."" "A life for a rose." "Belle was ready to die when she heard the first strike of the bell." "But as she explored the castle of the Beast, a noise, stronger and headier than the bell, started to resonate in all her being." "The beating of her heart." "My name is Belle." "I came to exchange my life for the life of my father." "Sit down." "Eat." "Once you have regained your strength, you can go for a walk anywhere on my estate." "But when night falls, I forbid you to leave the castle." "If I must die, let it be now." "You have more courage than your father." "Each night, at this hour, you will have to be here." "Don't even think about escaping." "The forest would close in on you." " Would you like me to stop reading?" " No, I want to hear the rest." "It makes me sad that she's all alone." "Poor thing." "That's true, she felt very much alone." "While she was climbing the immense staircase, Belle realised that, in all her life, she had never spent a single night away from her family before." "But what she didn't know was that, in her room, the Tadommes were waiting for her, the little creatures inhabiting the castle." "They were going to become her best friends." "...sleep... dream sleep... dream... she's sleeping..." "listen to our voices..." "They're coming." "Ah, they will yell, they will be dirty and boisterous." "They annoy me already." "But the one who will win your heart might be one of them." "Well, then, I'll make his life a living hell." "Here they are." "I always knew you were unfaithful to me." "And now, I am going to eat you." "Get your filthy hands off her!" "That's right, my friend..." "No doe no reward." " You still haven't given up?" " She has been eluding me for years." "But I will catch her, I can feel it." "An she will be my greatest trophy." "After you." "Look at what we gave him." "All golden, like the coat of the doe." "Let's go, I'm thirsty." "We need to drink." "Still, he could have joined me." "I've had enough." "You smell like a beast." "My love, I want to ask you something." "What?" "I want you to stop hunting the doe." "But why?" "I'm tired of you being gone for days on end, trying to catch her." "I feel terribly lonely, here, without you." "All right." "But under one condition." "Give me a son." "Belle hesitated leaving her room for a long time." "She was afraid that the Beast would suddenly appear from the shadows." "But her curiosity was stronger than her fear." "She wanted to explore the estate and see just how far her prison stretched." "Princess..." "This was how Belle realised that many years ago, or maybe even centuries ago, there lived and loved another woman, who died in that damned castle." ""Why me?" - she asked the statue sadly." ""Why do you disturb my dreams?"" "Feeling very sad, Belle ran to seek refuge in her room, to wait for the bell that announced her meeting with her strange jailor." "You are late." "Do you like your new dress?" "Don't ever come to my room again." "Let me remind you that I do as I please." "We'll see about that." "Don't look at me." "Eat." " And you, don't you eat?" " No." "Not in front of you." "May I talk or should I eat in silence like a child?" "It is what you are, though." "An arrogant child." "I like it when people think I am childish and frivolous." " That way..." " You talk too much!" "I am sure that you like it, the fact that I fill the void." " Who does this castle belong to?" " Everything here belongs to me." "You sound like any other man." "It is pretty disappointing." "Do I really disappoint you?" "Is there anything else you don't like about me?" "Now you're silent." "I've been waiting night and day for you to decide my fate." "You're toying with me as if I were a mouse in your paws." "If only you'd accept to surrender yourself..." "I could fulfill all your desires." "Do you think that a beast like you could make a woman like me happy?" "Lower your eyes!" "Don't look at me!" "I know what I am!" "You can resist me all you want, but you will be mine!" ""Eat!" "Don't look at me!"" ""Do this!" "Don't do that."" "I will teach this animal manners!" "What is this?" "Oh, but it's me!" "It's a spitting image of me." "What a wonderful gift." "I wonder who could have made such a beautiful doll?" "Where are you hiding?" "Come out, I won't eat you." "I will put it here." "That way I will always have it close by." "...listen to our song..." "My friends, today is a great day." "Our kingdom will finally have an heir." "And you, madam?" "Wouldn't you like me to make you a little heir?" "You would need a kingdom for that." "Let's pray he doesn't look like his father." "What are you thinking about?" "The first time we met." "At the river." "You approached the bank and you pretended to be undressing." "You were drowning." "I can swim better than you." "Let's go back to our room." "Don't forget your promise." "Which one?" "The golden doe." "...mirror We are the fireflies..." "When she woke up, Belle went to explore the castle." "She was determined to solve the secrets of the Beast." "She lost herself in a maze of corridors and crumbling bridges but always with that odd feeling that she was being followed." "I would like to apologize for last night." "You were right." "You do fill an immense void." "Are you enjoying the gifts?" " Why don't you answer?" " I miss my family." "Forget them." "They no longer exist." "It may be convenient for you not to think of the past." "But I can't give it up." "What do you know about me?" "Nothing." "Nothing." "That's true." "I would like to propose a deal." "A few hours with my family." "For what?" "A dance." "You will let me see them in return." "You're doing this out of pity for me." "I will lead the dance if it scares you so much." "Dancing with me doesn't scare you?" "Just let yourself go." "Could you love me?" "We made a deal." "Keep your promise." "I decided a long time ago never to make a promise to anyone." "You wrap yourself in princely clothes, you think you're a man, yet you're nothing but a cruel and lonely beast." "You can try anything you want, bribe me, bewitch me, you will never cease to disgust me!" "Now you know exactly what I am." "Tell me again that I disgust you." "Tell me!" "I will let you see your family one last time." "Really?" "You're not saying this to torture me?" "You have one day." "No more." "You'll leave at dawn." " Give me your hand." " Which one?" "I don't know." "I doesn't matter." "The left one." " You're not going to give me a ring?" " Just be quiet a little." "Listen." "You know the power of this water." "If you get hurt," "...if anything happens to you at all..." " Nothing will happen to me." "I must get ready." " Belle, if you don't come back..." " I know, you will kill us all." "No." "I will die." "I'll be here tomorrow." "At this time." "Who's there?" "I'm warning you, I am armed!" "Belle!" "The house is a mess." "What are you doing with these weapons?" " Ask Maxime." " Shut your mouth." " Go back to your post, damn it." " Go back to my post?" " You think you're a general?" "What an idiot." " Enough, enough." " You're not going to start this again?" " Stop defending him." "You're so scared, you keep drinking wine all day." " Me scared?" " Stop it!" "Stop it!" "What is going on here?" "Have you all gone crazy?" "Come on up." "Everything will be fine." "Don't worry." "Selling us as slaves to pay for Maxime's debts is out of the question." "They will put us on a ship full of sweating sailors." "Will they make us clean the hull?" "We'll tell them that we're sea-sick and that we don't know how to clean." "Oh, yes!" "Anne?" "Clotilde?" "I have come back." "Clotilde, do you see what I see?" "It's Belle's ghost, come to haunt us." " All in red, covered in blood." " You're not dreaming, my dear sisters." "It really is me." "I came to say goodbye for the last time." " Even dead she's more beautiful than us." " Just look at her tiny waist." "Know that I will always love you." "We love you too, sweetheart." "We think about you all the time." "She made me take your room." "Oh!" "I knew it!" "I will have my revenge." "Where's Dad?" "He's been so sad since you left, that he won't wake up." "What kind of a dress is that?" "Dad?" "It's me." "Belle." "I'm here." "Wake up, dear Father." "Do it for me." "Dad." "Dad." "Have you ever seen a stone this big?" "Do you remember the trunks Father brought from the castle?" " Oh no, don't even think about it." "I forbid you." " It's our only chance, Tristan." "You'll only go out this door over my dead body." "See how her flank is shaking." "Look at her glistening pelage." "I can almost smell her scent." " Her time has come." " She's mine, understood?" "I am the nymph of the forest." "I was allowed to take a human form." "I wanted to know that thing humans call love." "I met you." "My prince." "Forgive me." "Father." "God of the forest." "Spare the one I adore." "He filled your daughter with eternal love." "Father... spare him." "A terrible voice resounded in the sky:" ""For having killed my daughter, I will make you a beast." "Only a woman will be able to save you." "But who would love you?" "Be cursed for eternity." "You're betraying Belle." "I'm saving us." "She'll understand." "You would have preferred a different brother, right?" "What are you doing here, little rabbit?" "Weren't we supposed to meet at your shack?" "Look." "My boys dressed up just to meet your sisters." " I have a proposition for you." " I'm not making any more deals with you." "I've been far too patient." "Look." "It's from an abandoned castle." "If I take you there, you can get the rest of the treasure." "And then you erase my debt." "How many of these stones are there?" "There are trunks full of them." "Don't disappoint me, little rabbit." "This is your last chance." "You know that." "Tell your men to follow me." "Do what he says." ""More than anything in the world."" "As they were galloping on the enchanted path," "Perducas was thinking about the treasure that awaited him." "He was cursing his men, hating the prospect of sharing his treasure with them." "He looked at Astrid and wondered whether he'd prefer love or wealth." "Sometimes, the spirit of men is confused, their beliefs are shaken, and only doubt remains." "Meanwhile, Belle was reliving the story of the prince who became a beast, when she heard a heart-breaking groan." "My child!" "Dad!" "I missed you so much!" "Belle!" "Oh, my God!" "Anne!" "Clotilde!" "Come quickly!" "I was so scared." "Something in you has changed." "Your eyes." " And your voice, too..." " I have to leave, Father." "I must go back there." "This is how the dead come back to life!" "This is the happiest day of our lives!" "Calm down, you'll crush me!" "Did you feel something?" "Danger." "I can feel it, it's everywhere." "That's what we live for, right?" "Let's go." "You three, go to the west." "The others, take the east." "You, my little rabbits, you will go in front of me." "...Astrid enough fear enough blood save your life you must unless you suffer an eternal torment take the gold in your hands Astrid take the gold Astrid..." "...take the gold in your hands..." "Where are our brothers?" "I must hurry." "Maxime also took the horse." "I tried to stop them, but..." "Forgive me, Belle." "I hate it when you're far from me." "Where were you?" "If I tell that we have to leave now, will you follow me?" "Is this gold?" "This arrow is very powerful." "I feel that this will give us more than just wealth." "We will be respected." "We'll be above everything." "Open your eyes." "We have finally found what we've always wanted." "Don't." "How do I know you won't come back here later to steal my treasure?" "If you don't trust me any more, at least, listen to the prophecy of the cards." " What have you seen?" " Death." " Yours or mine?" " What do you prefer?" "Neither, darling." "And since you're not sure about anything, let's say that this greenhorn, here, will die tonight." "Well?" "This gate will not open by itself." "An abandoned castle, you say, huh?" "Buck up, my rogues!" "We haven't visited the floors yet!" "We must find another way." "That's the ribbon I lost on my way to the castle." "We must be close." "I am sure of it." "Belle, what are you doing?" "Belle, stop, you'll hurt yourself." "Belle, come back!" "Come back, Belle!" "Belle, please, come back!" "Belle!" "Gods of the forest, hear me." "Let me go back to him." "It's my only wish." "My one desire." "You were wrong." "There was no one inside waiting for us." "Don't spoil the fun." "I am rich... now." "I can fulfill all your desires." " The one of dying together?" " Your cards don't decide any more." "I do." "What's wrong with him?" "Why is he screaming like that?" " Where are our brothers?" " Over there, with Perducas." "He is going to kill them!" "Maxime!" "Save yourself." "Ask Belle to forgive me." " No." " Go on, leave!" "You can ask her yourself." "Stop!" "You, my little one, you will help me." "Let her go!" "What are you?" " A lion?" "A big cat?" "..." "...who will drain your blood." "You can purr as long as you want." "But if you don't want me to damage your doll, let me go." "I beg you!" "Remember that you were a man once." "Spare this vermin and let my brothers go." "All that matters is that I'm here." "That I'm staying with you." "Help me!" "Come on, quickly!" "Don't leave me!" "My love, your fate will be worse than mine." "Come help me!" "Hurry up!" "Put him in the pool, quickly!" "He's not breathing." "Don't worry about us." "Come on, brothers." "We've missed our dinner." "You say this as if you regret it." "Belle." "Do you think that... with a little patience, or maybe out of habit," "you could have eventually... loved me?" "But I love you already." "Well..." "The story is over." "It's time to go to sleep." "Come on." "What about the brothers and the sisters?" "What happened to them?" "They all went back to town." "The brothers opened a printing house, to print books." "And the sisters married two twins, and they couldn't tell them apart." "That way, they are always together." "And their father?" "He started a flower business." " Him too?" " Yes, him too." "Sweet dreams." " Mummy..." " Go to sleep, my darlings." "" " English "
