The Sea PrincessChapter One
Adella sighed as she softly combed her bright red hair back with her fingers, she is stood at the front of Auradon prep waiting with The Fairy Godmother, Prince Ben and his girlfriend Audrey—it is a tense day in Auradon: especially at the prep school. Adella caught the eye of her best friend, Ben, and smiled reassuringly at him. Today is the day that five children come from the Isle of the Lost, an Isle where the villains had been banished many years ago, they are all the sons or daughters of the most famous villains known. Mal the daughter of Maleficent, Evie the daughter of The Evil Queen, Jay the son of Jafar, Carlos the son of Cruella De Vil and lastly is Uriah the son of Ursula.
"Will you be okay?" Ben whispered to her, Audrey hearing the question scoffed and sent a glare to Adella.
"I'll be fine," She replied while fiddling with her shell necklace that her mother had given her some time ago. The truth was Adella wasn't fine, she was conflicted. On one hand she wants to give these kids a chance because they aren't their parents but on the other hand she doesn't see how she could be able to give Ursula's son a chance, especially after what she did to her mother.
Suddenly the marching band began to play as a black limousine pulls up in front of them, the driver steps out and opens the passenger car door as two boys fall out fighting. Adella can tell by their appearance that the smaller one on the floor is Carlos as he is wearing mainly black, white and bits of red—which are Cruella's favourite colours—while the taller one standing up with one of his feet on Carlos' chest is Jay as he practically screams out 'delinquent thief' to Adella. The next two people to step out are the two daughters, Mal is the one with the purple hair and Evie is the one with blue hair. Adella felt her heart begin to pound as the necklace around her neck felt heavier, Ben noticed the way Adella's breathing began to come out rapidly and he attempted to calm her down by placing one his hands on her shoulder.
Adella felt like time was moving at an agonizing rate as the last son stepped out of the car, her gaze locked with his as her breath caught in her throat. He smirked at her before noticing the shell necklace she was still fiddling with causing his smirk to disappear and his eyes widen. He clocked who she was.
"You got everything else, why do you want this?" Carlos yelled trying to pull a blue scarf off Jay.
"Because you want it" Jay replied causing Adella to raise her eye-brow at them while stifling a giggle.
"Guys, we have an audience" Mal said sternly looking down at the two of them, they both stopped what they was doing and stood up, Carlos—who appeared to be covered in chocolate—looked down embarrassed while Jay smirked.
"Just cleaning up" he said to TFG (The Fairy Godmother).
"Leave it as you found it," TFG let out a nervous laugh, "and by that leave it." Jay then turned and threw the rest of the stuff in the car along with the blue scarf.
"Hello, foxy. The names Jay" Jay said as he walked towards Audrey, you chuckled at the look of distaste on her face.
"Welcome to Auradon prep, I'm Fairy Godmother. The head mistress." TFG butted in smiling.
"The Fairy Godmother? As in 'bibbidi-bobbidi-boo'?" Mal asked.
"Bibbidi-bobbidi you know it" TFG winked back at her.
"Yeah I always wondered what it would have been like for Cinderella when you just appeared out of no-where, with that sparkly wand and warm smile. And that sparkly wand" Mal replied causing Adella to arch an eyebrow at her choice of repeated words.
"That was a long time ago and as I always say 'don't focus on the past or you'll miss the future'" TFG grinned while waving her hands in front of her face.
"It's so good to finally meet you all, I'm Ben-" Ben began to greet them.
"Prince Ben, soon to be King" Audrey butted in as she gripped Ben's arm again and grinned.
"You had me at Prince, my mum's a Queen which makes me a Princess" Evie said stepping forward.
"The Evil Queen has no royal status here and neither do you" Audrey snapped at her.
"Oh, give it a rest" Adella said angrily while glaring at Audrey it was no secret that the two hated each other, "Hi, my names Adella. It's nice to meet you"
"Princess Adella, her mother's Ariel you know" Audrey, once again butted in, she aimed the last part at Uriah causing both his and Adella's eyes to widen. Way to make a situation awkward Adella thought as she shrunk into herself a little.
"This is Audrey" Ben laughed trying to ease the tension.
"Princess Audrey, his girlfriend. Right Benny-boo" Audrey held onto Bens arm tighter as he smiled uncomfortably.
"Ben, Audrey and Adella are going to show you around and I'll see all of you tomorrow. Remember the doors of wisdom never shut, but the library hours are from 8:00 until 11:00. And as you may have heard I have a thing about curfews" TFG said causing us all to chuckle, Adella really liked TFG she thought she was a great headmistress.
"It's so, so good to finally meet you all. This is a momentous occasion and one that I hope will go down in history—is that chocolate?—as the day our peoples began to heal," Ben began his speech as he went down the line shaking their hands, except Jay's who had punched him in the stomach which caused Adella to laugh.
"Or the day you showed five peoples where the bathrooms are" Mal said stopping his speech.
"A little bit over the top?"
"Just a little bit"
"Well there goes my first impression"
"I told you" Adella sung slightly while smirking at the Prince who rolled his eyes at her, she couldn't believe that Ben was flirting and she was flirting back—what a day to be alive.
But of course Audrey had to ruin it, "hey you're Maleficent's daughter, aren't you? Yeah, you know what? I totally don't blame you for your mother trying to kill my parents stuff. Oh, mums Aurora. Sleeping- "
"Beauty. Yeah I've heard that name, you know and I totally do not blame you're grandparents for inviting everyone in the whole world but my mum to their stupid christening" Mal sassed back.
"Water under the bridge"
"Totes" they both began to laugh before ending it off where a sigh.
"Okay, so how about that tour?" Adella asked trying to diffuse the unease.
The group started to walk towards the front door of the building while Ben was going on about some fact that nobody really seemed to be paying attention to. The couple was at the front with Mal, Evie and Jay while Adella, Carlos and Uriah were at the back. "By the way, I don't hold it against you for what your mum did" Adella said to Uriah, she wasn't right that she would hold anything against him considering he wasn't his mum and she wasn't hers—maybe they could get along? Uriah turned to her in shock, she must be joking. "I'm not like Audrey." She added softly smiling at him.
A scream pulled her out of them out of their conversation as she saw Carlos in Jay's arms. "Carlos, its okay, my father wanted it to morph from Beast to man to remind us that anything is possible" Ben said.
"Does he shed much?" Mal asked jokingly.
"Yeah, mum won't let him on the couch" Ben replied seriously before grinning, as they started walking off. Adella stayed behind watching Carlos stare up at the statue, he then clapped trying to make it morph back to man.
"It won't work, trust me I've tried" Adella said before rushing him forwards so they don't lose the group.
When you get back to the rest of the group you hear them talking in the lobby of the building about how magic has basically been retired. "Our royal blood goes back hundreds of years" Audrey giggled as Ben called Doug, the son of Dopey one of the seven dwarfs, down from the top of the stairs.
"This is Doug he's going to help you with your class schedules and show you the rest of the dorms. I'll see you later, okay? If there is anything you need, feel free to-"
"Ask Doug or Adella" Audrey said before pulling Ben away.
"Hey guys, I need to go to but if you want to feel free to come and find me whenever. I'm usually by the water" Adella grinned before walking off in the opposite direction of where Ben and Audrey walked off.
