Rated T for heaven-knows-what

Disclaimer: I don't own anything associated with Ever After High, especially it's characters. Ever After High and its characters are owned by Mattel and the author of the Ever After High books, Shannon Hale. Anyway, here's a fic including Blondie and a mystery guest. I could plan to make this story longer though, but who knows? Enjoy!

Chapter 1

The afternoon looked so clear. It looked so quiet. And it looked so peaceful around the school grounds of Ever After High. What made it extra peaceful was a certain guitar-shredding son of Robin Hood wasn't annoying anyone. Luckily, he wasn't around school grounds since he'd kill time hanging out with his ex-friend Duchess Swan or his band, Merry Men.

The only person who was around with the rest of the students was the daughter of Goldilocks, Blondie Lockes. She was also the host of her own MirrorCast show called 'Just Right', in which it was her right to get the scoop and gossip on what was going right inside the halls of Ever After High. This day however was like any other day.

Apparently, her partner-in-crime Dexter Charming wasn't here with her since he called in sick today with the flu. Which meant Blondie had to go solo this time around. But she was alright going solo all by herself. It didn't bother her none.

She was busy sitting on a bench while trying to adjust the video on her MirrorPad.

"Just a little clear here..." Blondie muttered as she adjusted the lightning.

However, it gotten a little too bright for her standards.

"Eck, a little too bright." Blondie said as she adjusted to a much darker setting.

But that wasn't working out either.

"Ugh, too dark." Blondie cringed.

After a few several adjustments on the lighting, Blondie finally set the picture to where it wasn't that bright, yet not too dark.

"Now that's just right!" Blondie exclaimed.

With her MirrorPad ready to go, Blondie turned on the record button and faced the entire device on herself. From that instant, everyone around the hallways of Ever After High, all turned to the screen to see her face smiling down on all of them.

"Hello, Blondie Lockes here outside of Ever After High, here to find out the scoop and gossip of what's going on!" Blondie exclaimed. "Unfortunately, I don't have anything at this point, so I'm gonna go ahead and focus on only one thing."

Blondie then walked over to a huge golden statue where it showed a likeliness of a smiling Headmaster Grimm. However, Blondie didn't take time to notice a human being dressed in a dark hoodie standing right beside her.

"Of course, we're talking about the huge gold statue that was erected yesterday!" Blondie exclaimed. "It stands about 5-feet tall, and the brilliant gold shell and it's sparkle is enough to take a bird out!"

Suddenly, Blondie looked over his shoulder to see a flaming bird going down. After it smacked the floor head-on, Blondie focused back on the MirrorPad.

"And it shows!" She exclaimed.

Around her other shoulder, Blondie looked over to the mysterious being.

"Looks like I got myself a visitor who seems to like it as much as we do!" She said as she turned to the figure. "So, what do you think about the statue? Pretty neat is it?"

The dark figure Blondie was talking to looked very quiet and moody. He was very gruffy, looked very mature than all the guys in the school and had a grim smirk on his face. It was much grim than Raven's entire character itself. Hearing Blondie's question, he managed to mutter these words out:

"Yeah..."

Blondie looked a little disturbed by the tone of his answer. But nevertheless, she shook it off instantly.

"Well, you heard it here, folks!" Blondie exclaimed. "People are enjoying it so much, it's like a magnet rolling you in! I'm certain our fellow fairy tales can say the same thing. Until then, this is Blondie Lockes saying, if it's wrong, it's 'Just Right'!"

After closing her MirrorPad up, Blondie approached the dark-hooded stranger with such curiosity.

"That's weird." Blondie replied, "I don't think I've ever seen you here before. Are you new here?"

"Yeah..." He muttered again.

"Well, that's good to hear!" She exclaimed. "I'm Blondie Lockes, and you are?"

The gruffy student didn't reply what his name was. All he did do was mutter out something that sounded like "Ben".

"Ben, huh?" Blondie raised her eyebrow. "I really like that name! So, this must be your first time, is it?"

"Yeah." He muttered with a nod.

"Well, don't be shy." Blondie smiled. "Why don't you come with me and I'll give you an all exclusive tour of the school? Sound good?"

"Yeah..." Ben muttered yet again.

From there, Blondie took the hooded stranger in. From Ben's standpoint, the entire school was huger than expected. It was almost like going through a huge jungle, except if someone grew a forest inside your ordinary high school. There were video screens everywhere (mostly when most of the screens actually show Blondie), thousands of classes and a huge football field coming from the outside. But strangely, he wasn't interested in that kind of stuff.

While Ben was following her, he actually got a weird sniff of Blondie's perfume going after her neck. The daughter of Goldilocks was too psyched to even realize why he was smelling her.

The first place Blondie and Ben stopped at was the school's local Bookball field.

"This is our local bookball field, where our team plays." Blondie explained to Ben.

Before she could explain more, she saw a bookball (which was actually a football, by the way) hovering towards her. Doing the smart thing, Blondie instantly managed to catch the ball, milli-seconds before it could get her in the face. Looking at Ben with such an embarrassed blush, Blondie let out a chuckle.

"Did I really forget to mention that it's also the most dangerous place I've ever been?" Blondie replied.

"HEY, TOSS THE BALL OVER HERE!" Someone off-screen shouted, mostly coming from Daring.

"Oh, sorry about that!" Blondie shouted back.

As she tossed the 'Bookball' back, she heard a hard thud, followed by a scream of pain. Apparently, Blondie threw it too hard that it instantly hurt Daring's balls on impact. As the most handsomest student in Ever After High squealed in total pain, Blondie managed to retreat.

"Let's pretend that didn't happen, ok?" She said as he took Ben's hand and ran off.

The next place they stopped at was the Castleteria. It was nearly empty since it wasn't exactly lunch yet.

"Okay, this is the castleteria." Blondie said to the hooded stranger. "This is where we fill up on a beary good appetite. If I were you, I would try to avoid the greasy foods. Just the idea of sludge hanging out from overcooked fries just doesn't sound right."

Ben nodded in approval.

Inside the castleteria though...

*BOOM!*

A small explosion rocked through the kitchen, almost nearly destroying everything in sight.

"Yeah, I also did forget to tell you that at some cases, this place could nearly be explosive..." Blondie blushed yet again. "Let's go to another place, shall we?"

"Yeah..." Ben nodded again.

As the two left, the two chefs inside the kitchen bickered and argued. Mostly, it was about who accidentally started that small explosion. Luckily, it wasn't large, considering it would've been a tragic story.

"Really?" The big chef said to the small chef. "Did you have to light a match in front of the oven where the pie was baking!"

"Hey, it's not my fault there was a cockroach inside the oven! Blame him instead!" The small chef whined.

Meanwhile, Blondie and Ben continued their little tour around the halls of Ever After High. However, Blondie still didn't notice Ben sniffing her in a weird way. Obviously, something wasn't right about this stranger.

"Okay, what do you think we should go, The Grimmnasium or the office where we can enroll you today?" Blondie replied.

Ben didn't reply one bit. But the gruffy stranger did manage to turn the statement around.

"You smell really pretty..." He smirked.

"Oh why, thank you!" Blondie blushed in fascination. "It's actually a porridge-flavored perfume I wear. It actually brings out a good hint of cinnamon and it's actually makes good incense!"

"I love girls who smell like sweet tasty porridge..." Ben smirked again.

"I'm glad you really think so." Blondie spoke in an uneasy way.

Before Blondie could go any further, she was stopped by his grip. Not to mention that his grip tightened, therefore making Blondie unable to move. This left her becoming upset at him.

"Um, could you let me go?" Blondie raised her eyebrow. "You're hurting me!"

With an evil smirk forming through her cheeks, Ben gave her a chilling answer.

"I don't think so, sugar..."

Creeped out by his words...

...

...Ben threw her right to the ground! And then, while Blondie was stunned for a brief second, the stranger started to mount her, pinning Blondie to the floor, therefore making her unable to escape.

"WHA-" Blondie screamed. "LET GO OF ME, CREEP! THIS ISN'T RIGHT!"

"Oh, but it's right for me." Ben whispered down on her. "Now let me get a taste of that sweet porridge..."

"SOMEONE HELP ME!" She screamed loudly.

Just to shut her screams up, Ben placed his hand on Blondie's mouth. This meant that no one around the halls could hear Blondie's cry for help. And Ben liked that.

As Ben's sick urges had gotten to his brain, he ended up yanking Blondie's entire skirt off her body, getting a good look at her panties. He looked down and licked his lips full of lust, waiting to get some from sweet innocent Blondie. As he took the time to unzip his pants, Blondie gave out one last scream for help.

"HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP!" She screamed mightily.

"Shut up and let me do you, already!" Ben shouted at her with such malice.

This was hopeless for Blondie. The only thing Blondie Lockes could do was say a little prayer, hoping that someone would stop this monster from getting his way with her. But there seemed to be no hope in screaming for help. Blondie Lockes was a total goner, and she was gonna get what was coming to him, no matter what she tried to do.

But then, something strangely miraculous happened.

As Ben tried to have his way with her, someone out of thin air got him off of Blondie, followed by the sound of a punch. And then, it was followed by more punches, along with the sound of kicks. Blondie was too horrified to even hear the sounds, let alone see what's happening. Could that monster be fighting off the students who were trying to help her?

She couldn't bear to think about that.

But after a few minutes, the fighting stopped. All Blondie did through those seconds of utter silence was roll into a ball and cry her heart out. She felt too weak to even stand up and open her eyes to see what happened.

Fearing for the worst, Blondie felt a hand touch her. Sensing this, she swatted away.

"GO AWAY!" Blondie screamed again. "JUST LEAVE ME ALONE AND DON'T HURT ME!"

Feeling the hand touch her again, she swatted it away again.

"I SAID GO AWAAAAAAAAAY!" She cried out.

Her entire body felt frozen and defeated. Apparently, all Blondie wanted to do was stay in her ball until things was over. Even if it wasn't over from her point of view.

After a minute of silence, Blondie heard a voice speak to her.

"It's okay, Blondie." A figure spoke. "You can get up now."

As much as she didn't want to, she had to as Blondie managed to slowly get up to her feet. With her eyes still closed, she buried her head on the figure's chest. The feeling felt a bit warm as Blondie cried on the person's shoulder. Blondie never felt such arms this strong and warm before in her life. She felt thankful that someone did hear her prayer, or else, her prayer wouldn't have worked at all.

Still sniffling, the figure, who sounded a bit male, spoke to her.

"You all right?" He whispered.

Having an ounce of courage, Blondie managed to look at her savior head-on. She had the biggest surprise of all when she realized who it was that saved her.

Well, this is definitely gonna be a challenge in itself. Just who exactly saved Blondie? I betcha ya'll can't guess who it is.

I'm deciding to make this into a two-shot or three-shot depending on what my mood is. Either way, I'm at least hoping for a nice three-shot on this.

Anyway, let me know what you think about this. Until then, feedbacks are welcome!
