King Adam was a man of his word when he promised that the kingdom of Auradon was safe. Secure and proud in many ways, he began to think that if he could get the many nobles of his new country to agree and compromise to so many things that maybe he could get the villains from the isle of the lost to back him up too. He would start with some paper work and hopefully start improving his countries feelings with theirs (as the Isle wasn't considered a Provence of Auradon, rather a country of its own). He knew that by achieving this then he could maybe start to sleep better at night knowing that he could only go up from here.
But he was wrong.
The villains were so furious with him that they refused all contact with him and discarded his wretched paperwork with Maleficent, their true leader in their eyes. She cast the papers aside and knew that she would dispose of them in a large public matter soon. And yet time past and they lay in a locked room, gathering dust as a small isle off the coast of a large kingdom began to gain itself some new inhabitants.
Small children began to run around, none raised in a world of happiness or good fortune. They looked to a world across the sea and learned to hate all those who resided there as it was them who had caused them so much hurt and pain. They learned from a young age that King Adam or rather King Beast was not to be trusted.
Across the sea, young princes and princesses learned the same lesson in a much different way. Sailing near that murky place was forbidden, monsters who lurked there would bite their toes and steal there sweets and they were to be feared. King Adams son looked to a world where good and evil where so greatly divided that everyone got their morals wrong. Cinderella was still good and beautiful but everyone turned their heads at her following her maids around, tucking in a freshly made bed and re-ironing freshly pressed sheets. They took no notice of the Isle of the lost and the children who wished to be freed.
For 17 years those papers laid untouched and forgotten until Maleficent's daughter stumbled upon them on misty day, looking for a good place to hide from her mother. Maleficent was rarely in a good mood and whenever Auradon or Aurora was mentioned, Mal had learned to run and not come out for a good day or two until she had calmed down. No one wanted to deal with her when she was angry.
The papers where confusing and difficult to understand as the education on the Isle was terrible and when she did go to class, Mal and her friends had the tendency to fall asleep. Her mother never let her sleep in the house in fear that the 100 year curse she had laid on Aurora had latched its self onto her own flesh and blood.
(Did she know that for the first five years of her young life, Aurora woke her daughter every night to check that she was okay? Some paranoia never goes away)
She kept them in her bag, forgotten and unwanted for weeks until her fried Jay had gotten caught trying to steal something from a stall nearby her house. They ran until their lungs gave out and they were forced to stop. They had run into uncharted territory yet this didn't seem to scare the young teens. It excited them and they got even more excited when they found a small tunnel concealed by an old piece of drift wood. They climbed down eagerly and were met with a large surprise.
Underneath the isle was a large empty cavern held up by magic. It was for anyone who sought refuge from the world above. A large hall with what looked like a series of rooms with a balcony overlooking it was the first room you saw when entering and a long corridor held the key to many rooms varying in size and shape. To the kids there, it would be home for a long time, a safe haven from the fairy godmother herself. She had built this in secret, in hope that any who truly needed it would find it and find their true potential away from the poison of the Isle of the lost. The two teens disappeared and returned with two others. A geeky young genius by the name of Carlos and a devious princess (or so she claimed) called Evie. They all discovered that behind the room on the right (the large one) a cave exit that led onto a lovely beach could provide them with food and light for all who they brought here
Armed with a bundle of papers and a dream, the four villain kids started to spread the word at small concerts that where held each Friday night. The kids (nearly 100 of them) where scared of the prospect of this and many refused to leave but a few did.
After two years nearly all the children were hiding in their small beach town, sowing pearls onto their clothes and singing sea songs at dinner. The villains knew that their children where gone and they did not care. They were so foolish to think that their children could not survive on their own. They laughed at their young and agreed to leave their new born children in the woods to either die or be found by their little traitors.
Mal (Maleficent's daughter) soon began tracking the villains and their behaviour. Sea food could only get so far and they needed a good source of fruit and veg for the younger children. By the time she was 15, she was widely considered to be running their little town with Jay, Carlos and Evie as her second, third and fourth in command respectively. They were treated no different to the other children but they held a certain amount of power among them.
The paper work had not been forgotten. With a larger mind than her mother, Mal believe that a good relationship with Auradon's royalty could be good for her. The king didn't question a new barge to be delivered to their side of the isle (she claimed territorial issues with pirates) and good fruit and no garbage (no one should have to endure that). King Adam complied yet she held back her name and her heritage, she signed every paper with:
Kind regards
Protector of the lost
Whilst strange, King Adam did not press. His curiosity was certainly there and so was his wife's but she asked him not to. These people wanted privacy and he had not right to ask for a name. Technically it was not his country and this was what he wanted. A kingdom that he could be proud of and that is what he got. His son would lead a happy life and by the time he was sixteen, he would take over Auradon without a single worry line on his young face. Everything was going to be ok.
Until someone spotted her.
She moved like the shadows between the stalls, never looking back. She left as quickly as she came and no one could tell him her name. But he knew.
The protector of the lost was finally about to be unmasked after nearly 22 years of the isles beginning.
It was time.
