Adam didn't what to think or feel. First, Belle disappears as soon as her aunt and step-grandmother arrive here and now; he's become the Beast once again.
"Why is this happening?" he asked himself.
"Hello, your highness." Adam jumped, he thought it was Belle, but it wasn't. He knew Belle was not known for saying 'your highness', he turned around and saw, standing in a corner, the enchantress. He growled at her.
"What in heaven's name are you doing back?" he growled.
"Try not to growl at me." The enchantress said.
"It's hard not to!" Adam said angrily, "What gave you the reason to change me back into this thing again!"
"I didn't do it." She calmly answered, "True, I did place the spell on you, but when you broke it, I no longer had power over the way you looked. But the Beast still lives inside you, whether you like it or not. You changed back into the Beast all on your own." At first, Adam didn't want to believe her. "I do understand that you don't trust me...after what I did to you ten years ago," she continued, "but now, I'm here to help you."
"*growl* Then why did I change back?" Adam asked, still a little angry.
"You feel sadness in your heart," the enchantress explained, "so much so that you would rather be in your beastly body than your human form. Why don't you tell me why you're so upset?"
"Why should I tell you?" Adam asked, "Why does it matter to you?"
"I'm just trying to help you!" she said, "You already got proof when Belle got sick!" The enchantress was right; when Adam placed a rose petal in Belle's soup, Belle got rid of her cold a lot faster than what other people could.
"Fine," Adam finally gave in, he took a deep breath and tried to control his temper, "The love of my life, Belle...has disappeared. I've tried looking for her, but I've never found her. She was so scared before she vanished."
"No wonder you're depressed." The enchantress said, that relied Adam a little bit.
"I'm a lot more than depressed!" he urged, "If you're here to help, why don't you go find her!"
"I think this will help you." The enchantress said as she reached into her sleeve. What she pulled out...was the magic mirror! Adam was greatly surprised as the enchantress gave him the mirror. He thought he gave the mirror to Belle. What Belle didn't get a chance to tell him was that Gaston snatched the mirror out of Belle's hand and took it with him when he was leading the mob. The enchantress smiled at him as she gave the mirror back to Adam.
Adam asked, "How did you-"
"It fell out of the hunter's belt when you were fighting with him on the castle rooftops." The Enchantress explained.
"Thank you." he said.
"Anything I could do to help you find her." she said. Adam looked into the mirror asked it to show him where Belle was. The mirror did its magic and showed Adam a place of ruins; the enchantress looked over his huge arm and looked at the image.
"I know where that is." said the Enchantress.
"So do I," Adam said, "she must be there."
"I must warn you though," she said, "You must take the mirror and the rose with you. You can't leave them here with Fiona in your castle." Adam was a little surprised that the Enchantress knew about Fiona.
"You know Belle's step-grandmother?" he asked.
"Yes," she answered, "she's very dangerous. You make sure that the rose and mirror don't fall into her hands."
"Fine, I won't let her get her hands on them, but I have to find Belle." Adam said as he placed a glass bottom under the bell jar so the rose wouldn't fall out. He wrapped the bell jar with the handkerchief and placed the mirror and the jar in another wrapped cloth and placed it on his back, like a backpack. He also packed a few other things, silverware, plates, matches and candles. Adam climbed down the castle and ran across the bridge. The Enchantress soon disappeared when Adam entered the forest. He was pleased that he had his beastly body so he could find Belle. When he saw those ruins in the mirror, he knew intensely where it was.
The ruins were once a tall mansion that belonged to his mother's family. After his father died, Adam's mother used to bring him to see her family for family reunions. One day, the kitchen caught fire and burned the house down. The family tried to rebuild the mansion, but didn't find the heart to do it because Adam's mother, the queen, died a couple weeks after the fire.
When Adam arrived at the ruins, memories of the place started to return to Adam's mind. He didn't want to remember the past, not just because of the curse, he didn't want to remember his parents. Adam just shook his furry head and went through the ruins.
"Belle! Belle! I know you're here, Belle. Answer me!" Adam growled, but he could hear nothing; silence was in the air. Suddenly, there was a loud screech in the air. He jumped for the screech startled him. Adam looked in the air, there was giant black bat coming at him. He quickly moved out of the way as the bat swung its wing, like a sword, at him. The bat's wing got stuck into the ground at first, but it was quickly pulled out and the bat continued to attack Adam.
"What do you want with Belle Arc-en-ciel, you beast?!" the bat asked, Adam could tell by the voice the bat was female.
"Why does that matter to someone like yourself?" Adam asked.
"Because Belle is my cousin!" the bat shouted as it lunged at Adam, that's when Adam realized that the giant black bat was Tintement!
"Wait, Tintement, it's me, Adam!" he quickly said before she lunged again.
"You can't be Belle's prince, you're nowhere near one!" Tintement said as she swung her wing, but Adam dodged it and the wing was rammed into a column. Tintement tried to pull her wing out of the column, but it was stuck. Adam knew she would attack him if he helped her, but he didn't want Belle to think he just left her there. He grabbed Tintement's wing and pulled it out of the column. Just then, She swung her other wing and slammed Adam into another column. The column started to crumble and started falling, Tintement quickly got away, but Adam didn't move as quickly as she did because he was still shaken from the force.
Just then, the column was caught a couple inches from Adam's back, where he was carrying the bell jar. Adam looked up at the column; it was quickly swung away from the area.
"Adam?" said a female voice, When Adam heard that voice, he quickly jumped onto his wolf feet. That voice belonged to Belle. He was expecting to see Belle's face; instead he was faced with another giant bat with two pairs of fangs and four horns on top of her head (two of the horns were the ears), but this bat was silver and white and had the same brown eyes as Belle does.
"Belle?" Adam asked, the white bat smiled and shook her head 'yes'.
"Why is this happening?" he asked himself.
"Hello, your highness." Adam jumped, he thought it was Belle, but it wasn't. He knew Belle was not known for saying 'your highness', he turned around and saw, standing in a corner, the enchantress. He growled at her.
