The world of Auradon was such a nice place to be. So much joy and cheerfulness and the people here made you feel at home. Unless you just got teleported in the middle of a courtyard with nowhere to go!
Anyway, we'll get to that part later. Right now, were in Auradon, and this is where the story starts.
The grass had surrounded what was left off the path, as birch and oak trees surrounded them, watching their every movement. Mal liked this time, where she could just sit and watch the skies, but not now. They were sent out on a mission and if they didn't return by 5, they would be dead. It was 4:35. But to make matters even worse, Carlos and Jay had already disappeared.
"Not far now." Mal croaked, her voice sore from all the shouting at the boys to stop messing around. Evie just sighed and took her hand in hers.
"No biggie, also, I could've shouted at the boys." She giggled, as Mal looked at her with a fateful smile. Before as The boys went on ahead, Jay was trying to steal whilst Carlos, they expect, was just being Carlos.
"It's alright, they shouldn't go out of line anymore." Mal laughed, still walking at a slow pace with Evie down a small bridal path, with her boots crunching the leads into pieces.
The forest was extremely quiet and there was not an animal to be in sight. It was strange because normally you'd see the odd squirrel run up a tree or something, but right now, there was nothing.
Mal looked worryingly down the rest of the bridalpath, trying to get the boys in sight. She continued to look down, before her foot slipped and she nearly fell down the edge of the hill, just before Evie caught her.
"Woah! Mal! Watch where your going next time!" She panicked, in a loving tone. Mal just looked and her as she brushed herself off.
"Its fine, Evie. I just can't see the boys..." she whispers, a hint of regret and worry in her voice. Evie looked at her with a shocked face, before it turned into a smile.
"I'm sure they're fine, Mal. They're probably just—" A terrified shout was heard from the edge of the burial path as Evie looked around, trying to find the source. Evie and Mal turned t eachother immediately before nodding and running down the length of the bridal path. That was Carlos' scream.
The shouts became louder as they zoomed down the walkway, tumbling over their feet ever once and a while. As Jay came into sight, Mal felt revlieved.
"Thank God." She shouted, her voice jerking as she stumbled down the hill, with Evie following close behind. Jay looked amazed. But not at them, at the cave, that they were directly outside of, with no sign of Carlos.
Mal skidded to the bottom of the hill with a halt, before stopping in front of Jay and putting her hands on her hips.
"Jay?! Where's 'los?" She asked, with her face full of anger. Jay didn't turn to look at her, but instead he had his mouth gaped open as Mal looked down the cave. It was a portal, with blue and purple spirals ingraved in the casing of the musical and rythmitic power.
Evie fell over behind Mal, but Mal just took steps closer to this portal, with her eyes full of curiosity. Jay suddenly snapped out of his dreamland, as he turned to Mal with a teddies yet amazed look on his face.
"Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you." Jay turned to Mal, who had turned round and helped Evie up off her position on the floor.
"Carlos went through."
"WHAT?!"
