Once upon a time, there was a beautiful girl that lived in the forest. People came from far away lands to see the beauty of this girl. She was known to be the fairest in the land. As people came and went, always telling her how her beauty was like an elegant flower, and she became very conceited.

Now while all of this was going on, there was a witch that was looking over everything. This witch was not happy with everybody making this young beautiful girl so conceited. This girl could be doing good, instead of worrying about what she wore and ate. Now this witch decided she was going to let it pass, until the lovely girl did something terrible. The witch was going to wait until this girl broke a heart and that’s when she would step in. She had to protect her sons from women like this.

She waited and waited and almost a year after waiting it happened. The beautiful Katrina had broken a heart. He was just a village boy, but a heart is a heart, and he felt very broken and alone. For Katrina’s punishment the witch came to the cottage of where she lived, and she cast a spell on her. Katiana was now an ugly beast. The only way she was getting out of it was if she could gain a heart. If she could make someone fall in love with her. “A heart for a heart!” The witch had said. At that moment in time, something would come from ugly, just like something beautiful could be so ugly.

“Why did this have to happen to me?” Katrina asked in despair. Almost all hope had been lost for her. It had been two years since she was turned. “Ugh,” Katrina shuddered. She didn’t even like to think about it, it had ruined everything in her life. The praise she received, the glamor she felt, just everything! She hated that witch, and had been happy when she d...

Adam was devastated and ran to her side calling her name out, and at that moment Seth realized he truly did care for the beast. “I love you! Oh Katrina I love you! Please don’t leave me!” Adam pleaded. That moment in time, magic happened. Katrina transformed into a gorgeous girl, and was saved because she had gained a heart. She had gained love, and that is what mattered.

After all had been settled, there was a wedding. Their love was known across the land, and inspired, and still inspires people of their true love. Katrina ended up taking the name Tina, her dead mother once called her. She lived out a wonderful life bearing three children from Adam. And everyone lived happily ever after. The End.

    “It was a large, beautiful room, rich and picturesque in the soft, dim light which the maid had turned low. She went and stood at an open window and looked out upon the deep tangle of the garden below. All the mystery and witchery of the night seemed to have gathered there amid the perfumes and the dusky and tortuous outlines of flowers and foliage. She was seeking herself and finding herself in just such sweet half-darkness which met her moods. But the voices were not soothing that came to her from the darkness and the sky above and the stars. They jeered and sounded mourning notes without promise, devoid even of hope. She turned back into the room and began to walk to and fro, down its whole length, without stopping, without resting. She carried in her hands a thin handkerchief, which she tore into ribbons, rolled into a ball, and flung from her. Once she stopped, and taking off her wedding ring, flung it upon the carpet. When she saw it lying there she stamped her heel upon it, striving to crush it. But her small boot heel did not make an indenture, not a mark upon the glittering circlet.

In the story the character of Kat is defined by the conflicts she faces and her inability to adequately deal with them.

It is the conflicts that bring Kat to a moment of clarity as she is left broken and abandoned. It is in this state that Kat is able to lose her name and begin to reconstruct herself apart from the influences of others. Without a name Kat is now the blank canvass onto which she hopes to paint her final masterpiece.

  • The Beast

    1530 Words  | 4 Pages

    The Beast (aka The Beast of War) is about a Soviet T-62 tank lost in Afghanistan during the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1981. The movie was released in 1988. It was based on a William Mastrosimone play entitled Nanawatai. It was directed by Kevin Reynolds, who later directed Waterworld. It starred George Dzundza, Jason Patric, Steven Baldwin. A Soviet tank unit in Afghanistan helps "clear out" a village, destroying it. One of the tanks, led by a ruthless Commander Daskal, orders the crushing of a captured prisoner under their treads of the tank. Leaving the village, Daskal's tank is separated from its unit and is soon lost. Mujahadeen warriors, led by the murdered prisoner's brother Taj, discover the lost tank and see an opportunity to take revenge. Knowing that the tank is in a valley with only one exit, they begin following its tracks, intending to use a captured RPG to attack it. Some women from the village also follow along with captured grenades in hand. The tank crew is made up of four Soviets and one Afghani. As night falls and the crew sets up camp, the Afghan tank crewman Samad teaches the tank driver, Konstantin Koverchenko, about the fundamental principles of Pashtunwali, the Pashtun people's code of honor: melmastia (hospitality), badal (revenge), and nanawatai, which requires even an enemy to be given sanctuary if he asks. We then see that Commander Daskal, called "Tank Boy" during the Great Patriotic War for destroying a number of German tanks in the Battle of Stalingrad, is not ruthless only to the enemy, but also to his men. He despises Samad and kills him on the pretext of suspecting him a traitor. After Konstantin threatens to report Daskal for the killing, Daskal orders the other two crew members to tie Konstantin to a rock, with a grenade to serve as booby-trap for the Mujahadeen. Some wild dogs come upon him and as Konstantin tries to kick at them, the grenade rolls down the rock and explodes, killing a dog but leaving Konstantin unhurt. The sound, however, draws the group of Afghani women. They begin to stone him and are soon joined by the mujahadeen. Konstantin is saved when he remembers Samad's lesson about "nanawatai," sanctuary. He calls out the word and the mujahadeen are obligated to take him with them. Camping out in a cave, they feed him and ask him to fix the broken RPG.

    The parallels that have been presented show that there are not just similarities in the tale and the Wife’s life, the prologue and the tale are the real and the ideal way that the Wife sees her world. She, like many women of her time and ours, wants control over her husbands and will do what it takes to gain it. She tells us how she gained control over her husbands, even when it lead to the oldest trick in the book, withholding “pleasures”. Then she backed up her desire for sovereignty by telling us in her tale that it was not just herself who wanted this dominance, but every woman wants the same, even if they don’t know it. Finally she idealizes what she wants from a husband with the tale of the knight and the hag. If only it were as simple as the tale told.

    She continues in this sequel to talk about the abuse she faced and the dysfunction that surrounded her life as a child and as a teen, and the ‘empty space’ in which she lived in as a result. She talks about the multiple personalities she was exhibiting, the rebellious “Willie” and the kind “Carol”; as well as hearing noises and her sensory problems. In this book, the author puts more emphasis on the “consciousness” and “awareness” and how important that was for her therapeutic process. She could not just be on “auto-pilot” and act normal; the road to recovery was filled with self-awareness and the need to process all the pieces of the puzzle—often with the guidance and assistance of her therapist. She had a need to analyze the abstract concept of emotions as well as feelings and thoughts. Connecting with others who go through what she did was also integral to her
