As more valuable time was spent, people began arriving. Belle gave each of them a blank look, as if to say, "You're very late and I'm quite irked at you but I'd rather you trust me so I won't start using my disapproving glares."
Finally, as the last stragglers made it to the group, a rustle was heard in the trees around the glen. A fancy looking carriage emerged from the forest. It was surrounded by people, all dressed in black. They all wore masks. Belle assumed these were the bodyguards of the person or people in the glen. Before Belle had time to think out who it could be, the King and Queen walked gingerly out of the carriage.
Belle scowled at herself for being so stupid. How could she of not known who it was?
((Sorry, I had to speedie everyone into the glen now. We were taking too long and this was dying.
