A.N – in this world, the core four where brought over to Auradon when they were seventeen instead of sixteen. Carlos is sixteen as well as Jane but where put up a grade due to their intelligence. The school years are cut short due to the royals need to travel so instead of graduating at 18, they graduate at 19 instead. Oh and I don't own harry potter or descendants!

Chapter one

Out of all the strange things that have happened over the years. Ben never thought he would get a phone call say that his girlfriend of two years had collapsed at the front steps of Auradon prep. A school which they, along with all his other friends would be graduation in less than two weeks now. He had planned to propose to her on graduation and had even picked out a ring. How could this even be happening right now?

She wasn't alone according to the phone call. Her unofficial siblings Jay, Evie and Carlos had also been present but alas are all unconscious as well. There were no other witnesses and all the security cameras show was that they had fallen unceremoniously to the ground and had been discovered by the defence against the dark arts professor. Professor Abernathy had always had a soft spot for the isle children, who in most people's view where greatly gifted in the dark arts. One of his chats with jay in the tourney changing rooms had revealed that it was one of the few classes that both dragon's hall and Auradon prep offered. Small titbits of information had been stored away these past two years and ben rarely thought of them. Mal didn't like to talk about it, always gong pale if it was mentioned so people generally avoided the subject.

As Ben walked or rather ran up the steps towards the hospital he is greeted by Jane (who has now been Carlos's official girlfriend for a year now), Audrey (Jays girlfriend despite Queen Leah's complaints. Prince Phillip and Princess Aurora where happy with it and that's all Audrey cared about these days. She had no concern about her grandmother no considering she was the reason that Mal was afraid to even talk to Aurora at the coronation), Doug (who is getting a lot better at looking Evie in the eyes without his face going as red as a tomato. Sometimes ben swears that he is bashful's son and not dopey's), Lonnie (a best friend of the whole group and a kick ass dancer as well as a brilliant potions master) and chad (who finally took some hints and let Evie tutor him. Right now he is expected to graduate with good grades and an offer to a good collage). He automatically feels better and goes to join his friends.

Audrey grabs his arm as she sobs and Lonnie quickly explains the situation to him.

"Professor Abernathy found them as he went to get his phone from his car. He forgot it and only had a chance to grab it second period. The day students were already in and seniors had a free period so many of them were still in bed. Everyone that the police interviewed had an airtight alibi and FG is running some magic scans to check if it was a stray spell or something" Lonnie says quickly running her hand through her hair.

"That's not all though ben" Jane said softly "when, a couple of minutes ago I went into the room where they are right now, I touched Carlos's hand and scars started to appear on his body. On his hands, on his arms and on his chest. I don't know what happened but it started to appear on the others too" she says, her voice wavering slightly and silent tears began to quicken as she finishes.

"Mal's were the most prominent and they look the worse. Your mum and dad where called as well as the board of governors. I heard that many other royal family's where attending as well as their normal representatives.

Ben sits down ad looks around before getting up and walking towards the room that the isle kids were laid out on four separate identical beds. He opens the door, ignoring the leas of his friends and the barking of the nurses to keep out. He ignores it all until he stops dead at the sight of his mother and father, his rock and guides from the moment he was born to this very day, crying their eyes out as they look over the four children. They had taken them in like one of their own, mal especially. Belle privately thought that mal would be an amazing queen no matter what her heritage was. Adam agreed whole heartedly on the matter. He had been sceptical at first but after two meetings with the girl, he was convinced that his girl was his son's soul mate.

They beckon for ben to come forward and motion towards Mal, who was currently lying in bed and having various tests done on her. Belle carefully points towards her forehead where a rather large scar stands.

A scar in the peculiar shape of a lightning bolt.

The board of governors where at a state of shock. Never in the history of Auradon prep had had something so unexplainable happened. Four top students drop to the ground with no explanation and no witnesses and when taken to the hospital, curious and confusing scars start to form across the children's body.

The board of governors consisted of:

· A trusted royal advisor from each state

· A professor from Auradon prep, usually the fairy godmother r

· A member of a royal family ( the royals normally took it turn about to go as ts wasn't required for them all to attend

Sometime a student or apprentice came along to take or they just recorded everything on their IPads and left it to that but today it was different. Today's meeting consisted of

· Every royal family from each state including the beasts

· Fairy godmother

· The trusted advisors

· King ben ( as he holds the biggest position, he sits at the top of the table)

· His friends (Lonnie fa, Chad Charming, Jane Fairy and Audrey Beauty)

It was a very peculiar day. This was the thoughts of everyone in the room as fairy godmother all but ran into the rom clutching a piece of paper.

"I've never seen anything like this before" she says, out of breath and worried. "I checked them through clearly for all enchantments I could think of and I found this. Not only have these poor children ha their memories wipes from almost nearly all of their memories from their childhood, they had been subjected to various dark spells from the imperious curs to the killing curse" she says shaking slightly

"The killing curse! No one has survived it though. How could they still be standing here today if they had had the killing curse put on them" Phillip exploded.

"Not all of them Phillip" fairy godmother says quietly "only mal"

The room fills with silence as the room tries to obtain the information they had received, how could someone survive the killing cure! It didn't make any sense. Apparently that was clear to fairy godmother and with this she holds up a small vial of clear liquid.

"What are those professor" chad asked with a puzzled expression on her face.

"These are Mal's memories. Her true memories. These are not tampered with and can hold the secrets that we must uncover in order to attempt to understand what has happened to these children or should I say young adults now. Without these, we are blind and we may never know how they came to be in this state and who did it" fairy godmother explained as she unscrews the bottle.

Any complaints are not voices as fairy godmother pours the clear liquid onto the tv that was mounted onto the wall. Confused faces look around as almost like a jigsaw, a picture of a simple house comes to view with the street sign in plain view.

Privet drive.
