Third Person POV

Prince Ben of Auradon, son of Queen Belle and King Beast,  stared out the window of Ben's bedroom, across the water, towards the Isle of the Lost.

As he started out the window, they were almost oblivious to the tailors that was fitting their suits, until the tailors turned their heads forward and measured it.

"Sleeve.........head...ah-ha" the tailors mumbled as they worked.

The door opened and Ben's parents walked in.

" How is it possible that you are going to be crowned king next month?" King Beast asked as they walked towards Ben  "You're just a baby!"

"They're turning 16, dear" Queen Belle said to her husband, smiling

"Hey, Pops" Ben started but he was cut off by his father.

"16? That's far too young to be crowned king" the King said as the Queen grabbed a coat off a chair and started to fold it. "I didn't make a good decision until I was at least 42."

Queen Belle scoffed. "Uh, you decided to marry me at 28," she said.

"Well, it was either you or the teapot." King Beast joked. He smiled at Belle and then winked at Ben who chuckled. "Kidding."

"Mom, dad," Ben said slowly.   " I have chosen our first proclamation."

King Beast and Queen Belle looked at each other, excited.

Ben took a deep breath "We have decided that the children on the Isle of the Lost should be given a chance to live here in Auradon" Ben said.

King Beast and Queen Belle looked at Ben in shock. Queen Belle made a squeaking sound as she dropped the coat she was holding.

He pointed out the window as he continued his sentence and they both walked to Ben's parents, this time the tailors didn't stop them because they were both in shock. "Ever time we look out to the island, we feel like they've been abandoned!" Ben said.

King Beast glanced out the window to the island, before looking back at Ben. "The children of our sworn enemies, living among us?" he asked Ben in disbelief.

They both nodded, "We start out with a few at first, only the ones who need our help the most," Ben said. He looked at his mother, who nodded encouragingly. "We've already chosen them" continued.

"Have you?" King Beast asked, looking skeptical causing Ben to frown.

Queen Belle placed her hand on King Beast's arm. "I gave you a second chance," she reminded him softly. King Beast's demeanour softened. She turned to Ben and  "Who are their parents?" she asked.

"Cruella De Vill, Jafar, Evil Queen, Hook" Ben slowly said before pausing briefly and then continued with  "Maleficent and Gaston."

Both of Ben's parents looked shocked.

"MALEFICENT!? GASTON?!?!?!?" King Beast roared. "She's the worst villain in the land! And that horrid man tried to kill me and stay with your mother!!!!" King Beast exclaimed

"Dad, just hear us out-" Ben pleaded.

" I won't hear of it." King Beast said strongly. The tailors stepped out of the room, nervously closing the door.

"They are guilty of unspeakable crimes." King Beast continued

"Dad, their children are innocent." Ben protested "Don't you think they deserve a shot at a normal life?"  continued. "Dad?" Ben pleaded.

Queen Belle looked at her husband with an imploring expression on her face.

King Beast looked between his wife, son and his son's best friend then sighed. "I suppose....their children are innocent." King Beast finally said causing Ben to smile.

"Well done." Queen Belle told her son and his best friend before she turned around and walked out of the room with King Beast.

As Ben's parents left the room, both boys walked over the window. Ben stared out the window, at the small island with the magical barrier surrounding it, then Ben look at the gold, beast-head ring on his finger, he hoped they made the right decision.
