Of Beauties and Beasts

I wrote this one for Crazyword's Fairy Tale Contest, and it won 1st place. So I figured I would stick it here and see if it can get a bit more exposure.

With my assigned fairy tale being Beauty and the Beast, I wrote this one from a very literal stand point, bringing in the very concepts of beauty and...well, lack of beauty into the story as tangible character concepts. Our main character battles against the Beast in order to rescue Beauty, leading to an all out meltdown of personal torment. Can Beauty be salvaged, or is the Beast simply too dominant a force?
