Trust is Always Required

by violetmaid

It is now time for the second group of teenagers from the Isle of the Lost to come to Auradon. But sometimes what you believe is not always true, appearances can be deceiving and not all who are Evil are evil. Not everything is what it appears to be, but will Mal and the others find out before it's too late? And sometimes, a little bit of trust can solve everything

1. Chapter 1

For almost 5 minutes the barrier around the Isle of the Lost had been lowered, however only one villain escaped. Maleficent, who was shortly thereafter turned into a rather small lizard at the very same coronation she had tried to destroy.

A few months after the coronation the four teenagers, former residents of the Isle of the Lost, were no longer hated (mostly), some people just wouldn't let go. Mal and Ben were still dating; Evie and Doug had started dating. Carlos and Jay weren't dating anyone, at all.

However, it was now almost time the end of the school year and Ben was getting ready to choose the next children to come from the island and live in Auradon . It was going about as well as one would expect.

Because the four had grown up on the island Ben had thought they would be the perfect people to consult about the next four people to be chosen. They weren't, for the last hour it had been arguments and counter arguments, about the same four people, the only four children of villains and not henchmen in the age bracket they wanted.

So far they had decided on one person, Lucan, the son of Yzma. The other three currently being argued about were Ruby and Zephyr, the twin children of the Wicked Witch of the West (Elphaba) and Elvira, daughter of Rosina, otherwise known as the wicked witch that tried to eat Hansel and Gretel.

By now Ben was sure that they were just arguing for the sake of it. During the course of the afternoon though Ben had learnt a lot of things about the Isle that he hadn't known, for example, there wasn't actually that many villains with children on the Isle. Most of the children and teenagers on the Isle belonged to henchmen.

And it turns out, all henchmen start out as neither Good nor Evil, they just are. They adapt to whoever they work for, if their employer is evil they become Evil, if their employer is Good they become good. It was fascinating to Ben.

The two girls would share the room with Mal and Evie, whereas the boys will share with Carlos and Jay in the hope it would make the transition easier.

Eventually it was decided, the four would be receiving their invitations to enrol at Auradon the next morning.

Elvira was the first of the four to find out about the invitation, it was an opportunity she just couldn't miss and quickly replied that Rosina would be delighted to allow her daughter this opportunity but hoped her daughter would return to her side at the end of the year. She then immediately deleted the email and vanished out of the kitchen window just as her Mother entered.

Lucan was next, his Mother told him over dinner the night before they were scheduled to leave that he was going to be going to Auradon Prep and not to disappoint her. She then handed him a bag which contained all the potions she was able to bring to the Isle with her. He smirked; this was going to be fun.

Ruby and Zephyr found out last. The second their Mother had found out she began to plot about how she would use the Ruby slippers when the twins returned with them at the end of the year. The twins plotted how they would never come back to the Isle, ever.

Finally, the day arrived; it was time for the next group to be saved. They only hoped they hadn't got everything terribly wrong.
