Hi guys! This is a mixture of both the series and the show which left out a lot of things from the book, so if you've only watched the show I'll try and pull out things from the books without making it confusing. Enjoy~
Chapter 1: Let's Get This Straight
Much had happened since Raven Queen had chosen to not sign the Storybook of Legends on Legacy Day. The good news was that neither Raven nor Apple had poofed, but there was a lot of commotion and panic as well as distaste for Raven's actions. Lucky for her she was not the only one against signing the book so at least she had some support when the Royals attempted to make her life miserable, and amongst those supporters was Dexter Charming... but wait! Isn't he a Royal? That's what Raven had been pondering until she decided to confront him about it.
A few days after the event, she went up to his locker where he had been taking his books out for class and greeted him.
"Hey Dexter."
"Hey Raven," he replied in a friendly manner.
"There's something I've been meaning to ask you about... Could we talk about it outside?"
He blushed wondering what it was and almost tripped over his feet.
"Why uh... Sure!" he managed to say as he caught his balance.
He followed her out the entrance to the main building to a spot where they were alone.
"Well," she began, "I'm just confused. Everyone thinks you're a Royal yet, you support me in my decision to follow my own destiny so... I guess what I'm trying to ask is... what are you really?"
Everything felt silent around them. Dexter felt sweat forming on his forehead and his heart began pounding at a fast rhythm. He had been trying to ignore that question all along. The truth was that he was in fact a Rebel, but he was afraid to accept that for if he were to openly admit that, the Royals would be after him, and on top of that what would his father, an honorable man, have to say to that? He wished that he had the mindset of the Royals so he wouldn't have to face such a thing, but because he really liked Raven such a thing seemed impossible.
After a few more minutes of thinking he had an answer, "Well... I'm not sure. I still don't know my destiny according to the book, but I can imagine that it might not be what I want it to be. The thought of creating your own destiny seems scary and difficult though, but I think I'm willing to take that challenge. I guess that makes me a Rebel, but please keep this a secret for now."
"Alright! No problem!" she assured him. She didn't know what else to say in regards to that, but she was happy that he shared her feelings about the book.
"Haha... Let's head to class now shall we?"
Then they walked back to the building together and parted ways.
I apologize for such a short chapter. I promise next chapter will be much longer. I'm just slightly confused on how to combine both the book and show together, so next chapter will be covering more of what the show hasnt. For now, this is how I'm starting out.
