Waking up from a nightmare several hours before dawn, Belle fetched a drink of water. 

She paused in front of her kitchen's window when she noticed a lit lantern in front of her mansion's garden. Her butler stood there, shovel in hand. This was no hour to be gardening. 

Curious, she made her way outside, but when she had gotten close enough to see a large and hollow pit next to her eternally-stoic and polite butler, she saw him pick up a rotten body. 

A DEAD BODY!

Her eyes widened fearfully when she saw her handsome butler drop the rotting body into the fresh hole. She asked in horror, "What are you doing?!" 

Surprised to see his young miss awake at this hour, he stared at her with the same expression he had been keeping up for all these years. He had made sure she was asleep before coming here.

"Gardening."

"And the body?!" she looked at him in disbelief.

"Fertilizer," he answered her before picking up the shovel that was on the ground. Belle was now certain something had possessed her butler. Who gardened dead bodies?!

She then heard him ask her, "Want to help me in planting it, Miss Adams?" he gave her a sweet smile.

Belle Adams' Butler

Barron could not hear a thing that was being spoken by Belle and Greed. He banged his head on the window. He continued to look at Belle who suddenly turned to full bones and Barron pulled back. Was Belle the one who was caught by the Hawverts?! And she was trying to escape? Asked Barron to himself when he noticed her going in the other direction which was the route to go up and not down.

"You are heading in the wrong direction!" Barron screamed, "Who is that dumbass who is leading you into trap?! ARGH!"

He looked up and down the tower he had climbed down from, before his ears flopped down that he had to go up to save Belle before the Hawvert would catch her. What was Lucas doing?! Thinking that Barron started to climb back up the way he had descended.

Belle and Greed started to head back quickly once her dead form was back in shape, "I need to keep checking if I turn to a mortal now," she muttered under her breath.
