I got distracted with….Let's just say, I'm trying to update regularly! I really am! :P So, I changed a few things… Nothing major… :D It should still follow the basic plot line! :D I now have a twitter if you want to get involved in my life…not really, I mainly post Star Wars things… :D So fun! But I'll post when I'm updating on it and which one I'm updating. The username is AnakinJinn. :D Enjoy! Darth Vader/Anakin Skywalker as The Beast, Padmé Amidala as Belle, Obi-Wan Kenobi as Cogsworth, Qui-Gon Jinn as Lumière, Shmi Skywalker as Mrs. Potts, Ani Skywalker as Chip (Yes I know that I have the same person twice, but Shmi could only have one son…), Ruwee Naberrie as Belle's father (Maurice), Palpatine/Sidious as Gaston, and Count Dooku as Le Fou.

"What are you doing here?" A mysterious mechanical voice yelled from the doorway.

All of the lights in the room broke simultaneously, to the point where all that was left in the room was a gleam of moonlight from the window and some small strange blinking of red, green, and blue lights coming from the doorway. Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan cringed.

"Well, uh, as you can see Vader, the girl came into the palace looking for-" Vader used the Force to choke the older Jedi. After Vader's disapproval was shown, he released Qui-Gon and started walking through the darkness towards Padmé. But before he could reach her, Obi-Wan stepped in front of him, successfully blocking his path.

"Anakin, listen to me. She was just trying to find her father. It's not her faul-"

Vader started Force Choking Obi-Wan before he could finish his sentence. The grip got as tight as iron. "MY NAME IS NOT ANAKIN! IT IS VADER!" He reluctantly let him go by throwing him to the ground and looked in the girl's direction.

"You don't belong here. Get out while you still can!"

Padmé's fear instantly melted away. How dare he talk to her that way! Even if she couldn't see him, she wouldn't let him get away with it without a fight.

"As they've tried to tell you, I've come for my father. Can't you see he's sick!"

"Then he shouldn't have trespassed here!" Vader's voice boomed throughout the room.

"Please! I'd do anything to get him out! Why I'd-" Padmé pondered about it. Her family needs Ruwee more than her. How could she deprive Pooja and Ryoo from their grandfather? Plus, he was the sole provider for the family. Her choice was clear. "Take me instead."

"You!" Vader scoffed. He thought of the other girls that the Jedi had tried to push on him. This one was really and truly different. "You would do that for your father?"

"If I did, would you let him go?"

"Yes!" Vader quickly said. "But you must remain here, in the palace, forever."

Padmé was beginning to wonder what the lights in the doorway were. "Come into the light."

Vader slowly moved his mechanical legs to the small pool of light in the center of the room. The top of his black helmet shinned menacingly.

Padmé's face turned into pure horror as his face fell upon her gaze. It wasn't even a face really. It was a mask, making a wretched breathing noise. It made her want to run away in fear, but she endured it for her father's sake.

"No P-Padmé! I won't l-let you do t-this!" Ruwee tried to keep his daughter from accepting, but it was too late.

Padmé bravely stepped forward. "You-You have my word."

"Done!" Vader grabbed Ruwee and dragged him outside. He tossed him into the speeder and ordered the driver, Kitster, to take him back to Theed. Kitster took off and, much to the despair of Ruwee, was gone from the castle within seconds of the order.

On his way back up to Padmé, Qui-Gon interfered with Vader again.

"Vader. Why don't you offer her a more comfortable room? I mean she will be staying here for awhile…" Vader just pushed past him and continued to the girl. He found her weeping silently on the floor.

She turned to look at him. "You didn't let me say good-bye! I'll never see him again! Didn't even get to say good-bye!"

For some reason, Vader felt compelled to help her. "Um… If you'll join me I'll escort you to your room."

"My room-"

"You want to stay in the tower?"

"No."

"Then come on." Padmé got up and followed Vader from a distance. When he looked back, he could see her still somewhat crying, as a lone tear fell down her cheek.

"The palace is your home now, so you can go wherever you want, except the West Wing."

"What's in the West-"

"It's forbidden!"

Padmé cringed slightly and followed him to a gorgeous room.

Qui-Gon stood behind him and softly whispered in his ear, "Invite her to dinner." Padmé walked into the room and started looking around.

Vader thought about it. He should assert himself as the Master of his palace. "You will join me for dinner. That is not a request!" He slammed the door behind him.

Padmé turned to face him, but was met with the door's surface. She ran over to the bed, threw herself onto it and cried until she ran out of tears.
