The Isle of the Lost was meant to be a place to keep all the villains entrapped. So obviously no one would think that the Hightopp's lost child would somehow end up inside. For years the missing boy was thought dead by his parents and never would they have imagined him in a place so vile like the island. Only their eventual reunion would not be as grand as most would think. After all, he was raised a villain.
A villain who grew up thinking his parents abandoned him.
The original four kids are joined by a secret stowaway. Hopefully he will remain unseen so he could safely assists his fellow villains in however way he can.
So let the games begin.
Now if only he were a better villain maybe he would be able to ignore the gnawing guilt he got at the thought of destroying other people's happiness
Im not sure if there should be any pairings other than cannon but if anyone want's to see Theo with someone let me know. It could be slash or het doesnt matter. hope you enjoy :)
Chapter One - Breaking the Fourth Wall
The happy ending is probably one of the biggest cliches one could write at the end of their story. They all start with the same sad, unfortunate loser. Some interesting stuff happens and bam! They all live happily ever after.
No one ever sees it coming!
'What?! The prince marries the princess?!'
'No way!? That guy defeated the dragon!?'
'Oh my-! I never would have guessed that the girl would survive the poison apple and finally be with her true love!'
The Internet would have hated me if I had access to Wi-Fi. No one likes spoilers.
After the stories end no one really thinks about what happens to the villains. Sure there's the sequels but I'm talking about what really goes on in their messed up lives. There's TV shows, books, and even forums for the good guys but us bad folk? We get thrown into an inescapable island with all our evil buddies. Not even a damn newsletter.
The Isle of the Lost is what my home is called. Nasty place full of creepy crawlers and I'm not talking about the eight legged beasts. The isle is home to all the villains you heard about during bedtime. Jafar from Aladdin? My neighbor. Ursula the sea witch from Little Mermaid? She sells fish bones at the wharf. , the Shadow Man from princess frog story? He's my headmaster!
Sounds domestic for villains but that's what happens when you get booted onto an island that's surrounded by a barrier. No one comes out and certainly no one would want to come in.
Well, no one but me that is.
I bet you're wondering who 'me' is. Well sorry for not introducing myself earlier. I was busy explaining the more important facts to you.
My name is Theodore Hightopp.
Yes that Hightopp. You heard of the story. Little girl follows a rabbit down a hole and finds this crazy land full of even crazier people. My father just so happens to be the craziest. No kidding. That man was bat-shit insane.
But he wasn't a villain. My papa was actually considered a hero in that story. My mom? She was the main character!
Alice and Tarrant Hightopp.
Those would be the names on top of my birth certificate. I would show you but I don't carry it with me.
Now you must be dying to know why their spawn would land himself on this godforsaken place. If you're not too bad. This is my story and I am going to tell it to you properly.
My momma and papa gave me up.
Threw me away like yesterday's newspaper.
That simple. I'm not entirely sure how I even ended up on this island. Surely my parents never stepped foot here. Must have taken the wrong bus or something cause here I am!
And you'll never guess who I live with! I'd let you try and figure it out but that would take too long and I got better things to do than watch the little hamster in your head die from exhaustion.
My 'mother' is the Queen of Hearts herself! Interesting how things work, huh? She said she recognized me and took me in by the 'kindness' of her heart. Must have used too much 'kindness' that day because it's seems she ran out since then. Taking me in was probably another way for her to get back at the saviors of Wonderland. She gets a kick out of ruining my day. Her favorite part of the day must be when she reminds me about how my parents abandoned me and how the only reason I was still breathing was because of her.
Despite that she's not so bad. I'm sure some other kids got it worst.
Because of my parentage, I don't really talk to other kids my age. No one knows that I'm actually adopted and that's a good thing. Imagine what would happen if word got out that I was technically a 'good guy?' You need to be bad to survive the isle. Any sort of decency or kindness will get you killed. 'Mother' beat that into my head when I was little.
I'm nearly fifteen now and I gotta say, this past year was the most eventful year of my life! Somehow I was roped into finding this all powerful staff with four other kids. I would explain it to you but once again I'm on a time crunch here. I'm sure you can find the book in Barnes and Noble somewhere.
While we failed our quest and the evil boss lady was pissed at us, we eventually became pretty good friends. Not that anyone of us would admit it obviously.
First there's Jay. He's Jafar's son and if you remember from earlier he is also my neighbor. Sorta. Jay is a thief through and through. You lost something you might as well go to their shop and try to buy it back. If you think about it, it's actually really ironic. Jafar's son the street rat stealing stuff to make ends meet. The karma must eat at him everyday.
There's Evie the Evil Queens daughter. She prides herself in being the 'fairest' of them all just like her mother. Though with that mentality she often sells herself short on the intelligence factor. That girl acts like your typical housewife but in reality she could be so much more.
Carlos, son of Cruella de'Ville. Genius kid. Scared of dogs. Carlos is actually one of the lesser evils on the island. We were actually sorta friends once upon a time. He'd let me crash at his place on some bad days though his mother never knew of my spontaneous sleepovers. It was sorta like a game. We never really talked about it either. I guess we just had this sort of understanding.
And then there's Mal, daughter of the truly evil and cruel Maleficent. Mal is one boss ass chick. I'd even go as far as to say she was the pack leader of our ragtag group of villains in the making. She's the most levelheaded of the group and so far I never found a reason to not follow her. Makes me sound like a minion but I really don't care. Her evil glare makes my hair frizz.
While we did grow close after our little adventure, I haven't told them of my true parents. They've never asked and I never saw a reason to. In all honesty it doesn't matter anyways. I'll never see my parents again so it's not like the topic would ever be brought up right?
Right?
