Weee! Finally! The sequel to LKTV is here, Auradon's Magic! (AM for short :P)
This will still focus a little bit on BenLos, but the story will be different. I will also put in other pairings too. Also, if you hadn't notice, there are... a few interactions between all my fics I've made so far, and that's how it's gonna go. You will see certain parts of my fic that you might not understand unless you read the others.
HAUHUAHUAHUAHUAHUHA (Awkward laugh)
Anyways, I hope you guys enjoyed LKTV, and are looking forward to AM as I too am looking forward to writing it and maybe getting reviews? ;P
ANYWAYS, now I present to you, the very first chapter to Auradon's Magic!
Previously... on LKTV...
Chapter 13 -Auradonian Magic Chamber- the End...?
Carlos literally pushed the blue button as soon as Jay finished, and watched as everyone face-palmed. The end of the tunnel started shifting too, this time, revealing a glowing blue door.
Everyone ran towards it. We all held our hands really tightly anticipating what's behind the door. Carlos nodded at Ben, and he pushed the key into the hole, and turned it. The door slowly started disappearing...
We all gasped in awe as we watched the door completely disappeared, and revealing what was behind it...
"This is it, the secret of Auradon..." Doug state before we slowly walked in one by one...
Chapter 1 -Auradonian Magic Chamber pt2- the Beginning...
3rd Person View
No one could comprehend what they were seeing, it was as if they entered a completely different world.
It was all magical.
The room, more like dimension they entered was, to say gigantic is an understatement. There were platforms that look like as if they were made out of different gems. The path leading to the main platform was made out of the same material that was used to make the magical bridge connecting Auradon and Isle of the Lost. It was half-transparent, but instead of golden colored it was silver colored. Audrey was the first one that stepped on it, every step she took made it splash out silver glittery dusts that disappeared into thin air.
Under all those platforms and stuff, was an endless abyss, with mysterious blue-ish mist coming from it. There were 6 platforms in total, the large middle one branching into 5 mini-platforms. Then on top there were four more platforms. On the wall of the room were four giant screens each facing the four floating platforms on top.
At the main platform stood a giant ball, it was being supported by some fancy looking columns, the same ones that we saw back at the Enchanted Lake. The ball looked like it's supposed to be lit, but instead it was unlit and sitting idle on the columns.
You can only imagine how huge the room was, nobody dared to ask how this room existed or who built it. Nobody noticed the slightly-visible barrier, everyone was too busy admiring the odd place they just entered. They were about to start their journey to the middle platform, but as soon as the four villain kids stepped onto the bridge, they all started levitating uncontrollably one by one.
Carlos yelled for help as he started levitating higher and higher, the abyss was already scary enough for him, but now he was getting even higher. Audrey tried to grab Mal's ankles, but she let go as soon as she was being lifted together with Mal.
As soon as the four villain kids were approximately 10 feet off the path, a bubble formed around them.
Ben's POV
I watched as Carlos, Mal, Evie and Jay get trapped inside a giant bubble corresponding to their favorite colors as soon as they stepped through the invisible barrier. They fell asleep instantly in the bubble, and slowly floated upwards. They all floated onto these weird platforms with giant rectangular screen-like things on top of each.
Evie landed on a silver royal-esque platform, Mal landed on a green-misty platform, Jay ended on a platform that looks like it's made of sandstone, and Carlos landed on a thorny platform.
We heard a voice echo throughout the giant chamber, saying "In order four these four to step into the Chamber, they must pass the tests given onto them in their dreams. If they fail to pass this test... They shall never wake up again"...
My face turned from awe to horror as soon as the voice finished. Then the screen facing Evie turned on, showing what she was about to face.
Evie's POV
I slowly opened my eyes, when it was completely opened, I was in awe again. I was in a room that looked like it belonged to a super-star, there were racks after racks of stylish clothes, then in the middle of the room was a mirror. The floor looked like it was made out of Birch boards, not sure if they were just floor covers or actual birch boards. I looked around as I slowly walked to the mirror, admiring everything. As soon as I got to the mirror, I couldn't see my reflection.
I said to myself "What is up with this mirror?" I was startled when I heard a voice, calling out "Hello, Evie..." What's even scarier is that it was my voice! I looked around to see who managed to imitate my voice, but I was the only one in that giant room.
When I looked back at the mirror, I saw my reflection. I waved my hands but the reflection didn't. She instead shook her head and said "Oh Evie.. You don't deserve to stay in Auradon." my reflection said to me.
She continued to say negative things, a few minutes later I said "Enough! You're just my reflection, I don't need to listen to you." She smirked at me, then said "I'm not just your reflection, I am you." as she stepped out of the mirror. There were 2 of me now in this room, the other one originally being a reflection. "You'll never escaped this place!" she exclaimed as she had this wicked evil laugh.
I looked around the room to see if I could find a door, but that didn't work. Heck the clothes wouldn't even move, it was as if they were frozen in time. I even tried the ground to see if there were trapdoors, but to no avail, there was nothing that could help me escape. I looked up and realized the ceiling was made out of glass, but there was nothing outside, nothing but pure void.
The other me laughed at my attempts to escape, and it was getting really annoying. I said to her, "How about we make a deal?" She raised her eyebrow and I continued, "We have a Chemistry pop quiz, whoever has higher marks wins. If I win, you let me go, if you win, you do what you want to me." She agreed, with a smirk on her face.
We didn't only have a quiz on Chemistry, heck we even had a makeup competition, heck even a physical fitness competition, but to no avail, we always had a tie. I was running out of energy, but when I looked over at the other Evie, I saw her laughing. She said to me, "You can't beat me! I'm you!"
Then I noticed the mirror the other me came from, the rooms may have changed to suit our needs for our little face-off, but the mirror always stood there. Then I had an idea. I sprinted towards the mirror, in heels, but before I could get there, I was pushed away by an invisible force.
I looked over at the other me again, "You'll never escape!" she exclaimed as she reached her hands out (I don't know what this action is called, let's just imagine she reaches her hands out the same way Iron Man does before he shoots out his repulsors) a few seconds later, I felt as if an invisible force started forming around my neck.
She used magic to start choking me, and lift me up in the air, she exclaimed with the looks of evil in her eyes, "You'll never escaped this place! In fact, you can just die here!" then she laughed menacingly as she choked me.
I couldn't stay in this position any longer, if I did I would die here, and I didn't want that to happen. I want to be with Doug, I want to be with Mal, Jay, Carlos, and the rest of my friends. I will not die here, not today.
Then I remembered about a little trick I learned while fighting Maleficent. I quickly took my mirror out and chanted "Mirror mirror shine your light!" My mirror shot out a beam of light at the other me, and temporarily blinded her. She released her grasp on me, I took the chance to run towards the mirror in the middle of the room.
Then I thought 'Now how the heck do I destroy this...' I tried to move the mirror, then realized it was as light as feather. I didn't take time to think about why it was so light, instead I just picked it up and threw it at the other me. When she finally got her vision back, the mirror was already flying towards her.
She shrieked as she was slowly sucked back into the mirror, then she yelled "You! You'll pay for this! You'll never escape this place and die here!" A few seconds later, she was sucked back into the mirror completely. I flipped it over so the reflective part was facing the floor. I continued my search around the place now that the reflection of me was gone, and saw no ways of escape. After a good 30 minutes of searching, I finally gave up and sat down on the floor, while leaning at the time-frozen clothes.
I took my phone out and looked through the pictures I took together with Doug and the rest of my friends. I felt my eyes getting teary, knowing that I would never find a way out of this unknown place, I would never be able to see the love of my life ever again, or any of my friends at all. I curled up as I tucked the phone back into my pocket, I let a few tears stream down my face, but I didn't realize one fell on the wooden floor.
Suddenly I heard a voice, "You have passed the test, Evie, daughter of Evil Queen." I looked around and saw nobody was there, then I asked "What test?" The voice continued without answering my question, "You have shown compassion towards your friends, and your special one. You may pass through the barrier..." I turned my head frantically looking for the source of the voice.
But all I remembered was everything slowly turning white, and I fell into another sleep.
Mal's POV
I woke up on an odd looking island, it kinda looked like a swamp with green mist. I wondered around aimlessly around the swamp, calling out my friend's names hoping one of them would answer.
After about 40 minutes of wandering around, I stumbled upon a clearing. I slowly walked towards the clearing, as soon as I stepped foot in it, a familiar green cloud came from above and landed right on the middle. A few seconds later, the smoke cleared and I saw myself in the middle.
She looked exactly like me, from head to toe.
There was a moment of silence, I called out "Hello?" Then she turned around and looked at me. She smirked at me then said "Mal, oh Mal. Look at you now. You used to be evil, you used to make your mother proud of you. Now look at you, you're... good. Disgusting." as she shook her head.
I was slightly mad at her statement, I replied "That was the old me, that was you. Now I'm being myself, I'm looking for the true purpose of my life, not what my mother wanted me to be." She said to me "Being evil was the purpose of your life. You're the daughter of Maleficent, you're supposed to be evil, but look at you, you're not."
I shook my head and said in a calm voice, "Someone once said to me, 'We're not like our parents, we get to choose what we wanna be'" She laughed at my statement, which confused me, considering she was, assumingly another me, I thought she would understand what I just said.
She did a few gestures, then a few seconds later green smoke emerged from below her. When the smoke cleared, I saw Ben. She said "By someone do you mean him?!" with an evil grin on her face.
Ben asked with a confused face, "Mal what's happening?" I couldn't answer, the other me stated "It seems that this boy has turned you into what you are now... maybe you need a little bit of motivation to change back!" she chanted a spell I never heard before, and I watched helplessly as Ben was lifted up to the air and started being choked by an unseen force.
I tried to run over to help him, but another unseen force pushed me and I stumbled unto the ground. I watched helplessly as Ben was losing air, I got up and once again and ran towards Ben. I fought back the force that tried to push me away, but before I could get to my ex-boyfriend, the other Mal threw him across the area. I ran to him and said with tears down my face "I'm sorry Ben... I got you into this..."
Then he smiled at me, and stated "It's okay Mal, this is all just a dream, use your brain to defeat her..." as he raised his finger and pointed at the Mal who grinned evil-ly as she watched me mourn over my dying friend.
I asked with tears now streaming down my face, voice cracking slightly "What do you mean this is just a dream...?" Ben just smiled at me as he started losing his consciousness. I pleaded "Ben, please, stay with me!" but it was too late, he had already left. I set his body back down to the ground, as I stood up clenching my fist.
The other me said "What are you gonna do now? You're powerless against me! I might as well just replace you!" that statement had my heart burn even more, then I remembered what Ben said, "This is just a dream...".
Then I started using my brain, I imagined the trees around turning into beautiful Auradon trees, the mists clearing and the sun out. And it had worked! The other Mal yelled "What did you just do?!" I ignored her.
I tried to imagine myself out of this odd place, but it didn't work. I figured I had to defeat myself before I can exit this place. I imagined Carlos, Jay and Evie next to me, and a few seconds later pink smoke appeared, when it cleared my friends were right next to me.
I looked over at the other Mal, expecting her to be scared, but no, she smirked at me instead. She stated "Oh, so we're playing like that now?" There was a moment of silence. Suddenly my friends disappeared and we returned back to our original spot, the misty swampy forest.
My friends re-appeared next to the other Mal, now including the Auradonian Kids. I yelled "What are you gonna do?!" She grinned and said "Now you get to watch all your friends die!" A few seconds later, two men who looked like they were made of shadow emerged and held me down.
I watched as the other Mal killed my friends off one by one, she turned around and looked at me afterwards while holding a bloody knife. I smiled at her and said "This is all just a dream, remember?" and re-imagined the place I had a few minutes before.
We basically had a dream-fight, with the sceneries changing and us battling with magic furiously. I managed to touch the other me for a few seconds, she shrieked as if my touch had burnt her, before she threw me across the clearing.
A few minutes later, I slowly ran out of energy. I looked at the other me and saw that she wasn't even panting, while I was getting tired. She yelled at me "You'll never defeat me!" laughing.
I remembered the action that caused her to shriek, and maybe I could do the same thing again to defeat her.
I ran towards her, using up all of my energy and with every fiber of my being I fought the force she used to push me back. Eventually, I reached her, I managed to grab both her hands.
She shrieked as she started dissipating, before she completely disappeared, she smiled and whispered to me in a calm and soothing voice, "Congratulations Mal, you've passed the test."
When she completely disappeared, the rest of my dead friends disappeared too, leaving me alone in the giant field of flowers. As I looked around for a way to leave this dream, I heard an ominous voice say to me, "Congratulations Mal, you have passed the test."
I raised my eyebrow, but I allowed it to continue. The voice continued, "You have shown kindness and forgivance (Is this even a word?), instead of killing your reflection, you forgive it then show an act of kindness. You may pass through the barrier..."
Then everything went white, all I remember is falling asleep again.
Ben's POV
The screen then turned black, the same way it did for Evie. The silver platform and misty green platform slowly descended, Mal and Evie stepped down from it and joined us. They were happy that they passed the so called 'test', Evie literally cried into Doug's shoulder thinking she'd never see him anymore.
After the villain kids stepped off the platforms, the platforms lost their magic that made them float, they pummeled straight into the abyss underneath. They made no sound, signaling the abyss might actually be endless...
Mal walked towards me, then I said "We saw it all, you were kinda sweet Mal" teasingly. She smiled and punched me in the shoulder, when Evie finally calmed down, we looked up at the giant screen as it started to display what Jay was about to go through.
We all waited in anticipation, and hoped that Jay, and my pup, Carlos would both pass the test...
WEW, that's all for this first chapter of AM :D
So Evie and Mal's little... 'test' was easy, but what about Jay and Carlos? Would theirs be easy too? Or will they face an even harder test?
Thank you all for reading, and I'm sorry this was a little bit short and a little bit random. The four Villain kids had to prove they were truly good before they could approach the middle platform, so ya ;p
See ya'll in le next chapter! (Maybe)
