Ah, finally it's here! This video is a collab between Kitak and I. She came up with this wonderful storyline ages ago (sorry hun) and entrusted me with it. So here's the result.
Sadly the file I rendered from Sony Vegas was too big to upload here on YT so I had to run it through WMM.. I hope the quality doesn't suck too badly.. and please watch in HQ if possible, it's so much better..
And here's the storyline:
John is a wealthy diplomat who's been to many exciting places around the world. When he returns home after several years away, he is driven in a carriage back to his house. On the way, he sees a beautiful girl walking down the street. He is intrigued, but soon loses her in the crowd, and forgets about the incident.
Several nights later, John is at a ball held in his honour when he sees the same girl again among the guests. He approaches her and introduces himself, and she tells him that her name is Belle. They dance and chat, and a friendship begins to form. As time passes, they meet each other several times both at social events and in their own homes and soon they find themselves falling for each other.
John is a noble man but not really able to put his feelings into action, so when Belle one day gets a little flirtatious, John is bemused.
Autumn turns into winter and neither has acted upon their feelins yet, but one day when John Rolfe pays Belle a surprise visit she only just greets him when Gaston, a citizen of the town, enters. Belle plays her part well and manages to get rid of Gaston. This finally convinces John to do something about his feelings towards Belle.
So one night he gives her a rose and the two of them share a kiss.
One night, at the tavern, Gaston overhears a conversation and discovers Belle's relationship with John. He is furious and storms off into the night, determined that Belle should be his and unwilling to let anything - or anyone - get in his way.
Meanwhile, John is in his garden, thinking over how to break the news to Belle that he loves her and wants to marry her. (He imagines the scenery)Suddenly, he hears a noise behind him and turns around just in time to see a figure climb over the wall and approach him, before the screen goes black.
Later that night, Belle is at home when she hears a knock at the door. She opens it to find Gaston there who informs her that he has bad news: John had just been found dead in his house. Gaston approaches Belle as though to comfort her, but when she sees the smug look in his eyes, she realizes the truth: it was murder, and Gaston was responsible.
Sickened by her revelation and unable to put her revulsion into words, she pushes Gaston away and runs back into the house. There, she locks herself in and is finally able to grieve in peace, but she knows that life will never be the same for her again.

Thanks, Shade, but I think Asta gets the credit here - the couple was her idea and the video is purely her editing.
